A Sorcerer’s Journey

Chapter 719: Chapter 719: Black Sorcerer Trap!?

Boom!

The once majestic Sea Giant, having just appeared for a few breaths, was suddenly swept away with a gigantic smack by the 200-meter-long tail of the Synthetic Leviathan beneath the Dark Sorcerer, and with a ”bang,” the Elemental Giant disintegrated.

”Third-Level Creature!”

Originally thought to be just a transport, the Sorceress now realized it was actually a Synthetic Beast created by the Dark Sorcerer.

Synthetic Beasts are a profound knowledge developed by the Dark Realm Dark Wizards and are almost a compulsory skill for every qualified Dark Wizard. Therefore, it’s not uncommon for some Dark Wizards to create high-level Synthetic Beasts.

Typically, a Dark Wizard that commands a third-level Synthetic Beast is considered an elite in the Dark Domain. Why are they here on the Wizard Continent collecting ordinary humans for experimental material?

A dazzling milky white halo shone from the tip of the Sorceress’s Magic Wand but was effortlessly resisted by a layer of black fog from the Dark Sorcerer’s Bone Staff. The black fog grew larger, seemingly absorbing the Sorceress’s attack, forming a massive vortex.

Whoosh!

The black fog’s attack was similar to the Sorceress’s strike but converted the previous white flames into black flames. These were further augmented with the astonishing Power of Human Despair, making the attack far more potent than the Sorceress’s.

Caught off guard, the Sorceress let out a gasp, and a second spell hastily neutralized part of the black flames. The remaining attack was entirely blocked by a pristine white Defense Shield in front of her.

”Huff, huff, huff...”

Panting slightly, despite also being a Second-Level Wizard, the Sorceress felt a strain after their brief encounter.

It seemed in a one-on-one, she was definitely no match for the Dark Sorcerer. The massive amount of Human Despair he had collected was overwhelmingly suppressive against any human.

”Woo...”

Suddenly, the Sorceress whimpered, a black icy blade protruding from her chest, her eyes filled with disbelief.

”There’s another Dark Sorcerer skilled in stealth?”

The Sorceress burst into a flock of seagulls flying away, and not until hundreds of meters away did these white seagulls regroup. Just as she prepared to call other Demon-Hunting Sorcerers, the hunched Second-Level Dark Wizard on the leviathan let out a sinister cold laugh.

Boom!

The regrouped Sorceress exploded, black flames engulfing her instantly. Apparently, the hidden Dark Sorcerer had set a trap with the dagger when it pierced her chest.

”There’s still quite a bit of Power of Despair left. I was hoping to gain another specimen...”

The hunched Dark Sorcerer shook his head and made no move to leave on the Synthetic Leviathan, as if waiting for something, just floating on the sea.

...

The second Demon-Hunting Wizard to follow was the strongest in the group of Second-Level Demon-Hunting Wizards and possessed a Second Level Honor Medal.

Riding a flying shark, this male Wizard with black-framed glasses had a white beard, wore a mechanical helmet, was equipped with numerous mechanical devices, and exhibited a significant Elemental Magic aura.

This was an Elemental Wizard who had skillfully merged mechanical knowledge with his craft.

”The intelligence said there was only one Dark Sorcerer!”

The Demon-Hunting Wizard shot a flare into the sky from his mechanical helmet, displaying tri-color red, green, and blue light, revealing a camouflaged Dark Sorcerer 200 meters ahead.

The Dark Sorcerer quickly covered his face with a camo Wizard Robe, trying to evade the blinding light, looking somewhat caught off guard.

Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap...

In an instant, hundreds of precise Earth Element explosive rounds with fiery tails poured forth. Meanwhile, a strike of lightning shot from the magic wand, hitting a hidden Dark Sorcerer in the sea aiming to ambush.

A high-pressure water stream erupted skyward, but clearly missed its target.

Lastly, the flying shark underneath him opened its mouth, revealing a mechanical barrel that launched a violent energy wave with a ”boom”, blocking the attack from the hunched Dark Wizard on the Synthetic Leviathan.

No wonder he bears the Second Level Honor Medal as an Elite Demon-Hunting Wizard, adeptly countering attacks from three Dark Sorcerers from the get-go!

However, the Demon-Hunting Wizard’s first reflex during this brief lull was not to show off and try to face three opponents alone but to have the flying shark quickly escape the area. He then took out a Crystal Ball, actively contacting the other accompanying Demon-Hunting Sorcerers.

Swish!

Unexpectedly, the Synthetic Leviathan, laden with ordinary humans, didn’t use this chance to flee but instead pursued the Second-Level Demon-Hunting Wizard without any fear of the Wizard calling for allies.

”Heh heh heh heh, not bad, not bad. Even though you are only a Second-Level Wizard, you are more refined than my puppets, very good...”

Suddenly, as the leviathan’s mouth opened wide, a Level-3 Dark Sorcerer cloaked in an incredibly dense Black Human Despair Force appeared!

The mere appearance of this Great Level-3 Dark Sorcerer caused the Second-Level Demon-Hunting Wizard on the fleeing flying shark to freeze momentarily.

The Human Despair Force was so overwhelming, how many humans had this Dark Sorcerer tortured and slaughtered to amass such a formidable Human Despair Force?

Meanwhile, the Demon-Hunting Wizard on the flying shark was outraged.

The intelligence was absurdly incorrect. It wouldn’t have been as bad if it was just two additional Second-Level Dark Wizards, but now even a Level-3 Dark Sorcerer had appeared. This wasn’t a Demon-Hunting performance assessment; it was a death trial!

Was this place the Dark Domain or the Wizard Continent?

Emerging from nothing, a colossal Bone Prison Barrier enclosed the flying shark, and with a ”boom,” an energy shockwave created a fissure through which the flying shark agilely escaped.

Buzz...

The sky darkened, and then a massive twenty-meter Black Hand of Despair Force shadowed down, seemingly to crush the flying shark and the Demon-Hunting Wizard aboard.

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom...

The flying shark, carrying the Demon-Hunting Wizard, agilely evaded the joint assault from the Level-3 Dark Sorcerer and the three Second-Level Dark Wizards, exhibiting an astonishing survival instinct while darting across the vast sea.

However, in the overwhelming, sky-dominating attacks of the Level-3 Dark Sorcerer, after an hourglass worth of time had passed, the flying shark was pierced by a javelin swirling with intense Despair Force, and the twenty-meter Black Hand of Despair Force caught hold of the Demon-Hunting Wizard.

”Heh heh heh heh, finally got you.”

The Dark Sorcerer swathed in an incredibly dense Black Human Despair Force laughed sharply, his eyes burning with Dark Red Soul Fire as he peered through the encompassing Despair Force, staring down at the Demon-Hunting Wizard.
