Constructing-Style Wizard

Chapter 693: 221. Seize the spring water? _3

Noland Lee’s thoughts wavered, and he cast a “Mind Beacon” towards the nearby sea island of Island 102353.

“Changing perspectives, if I were Fagen, where would I station my spy to watch?”

While using “Mind Vision” to achieve vision leaps, Noland Lee was thinking quickly.

The sea island map obtained from Kaiden’s deconstruction appeared in Noland’s mind.

He compared the distribution of the islands to the Demon Brain Parasite’s cave as the center, drawing a circle with a radius of 40 kilometers.

In this circular area, anyone could observe the surroundings of the cave occupied by the Demon Brain Parasite using their naked eye + telescope combination.

If this circular area was extended by one or two hundred kilometers, people in that range could no longer see Island 102353. They would have to rely on extraordinary means to observe the surroundings of the cave where the Demon Brain Parasite resided.

Noland searched according to these two circular areas, first the inner circle and then the outer circle.

This search work continued from noon until the night of the same day.

In the meantime, Noland received a letter from Jenela.

This lady stayed in the office all the time because of Noland’s words, “I’ll be back soon.”

Noland took the time to return to the Island Affairs Department and explained to Jenela that he would complete the arrest warrant a bit later while using deconstruction on her.

After confirming that Jenela didn’t have any recent contact with Fagen and didn’t participate in any events harmful to him, Noland returned to a place a hundred kilometers away from Island 102353.

When the setting sun sank into the horizon, and the sea surface was enveloped by the night curtain, Noland found the suspicious spy.

He was a strange male wizard whom Noland Lee had not seen at the banquet. It was estimated that he was not Dickler Fagen’s family advisor.

The guy was squatting on a nearby island in 102353, using some kind of illusion to disguise himself as a tree.

Thanks to deconstruction, Noland saw through his disguise.

[System Message:]

[You are about to unleash Deconstruction Technique on the “Unknown Wizard in Illusion Disguise.”]

[Based on your scholastic skill, it is estimated to consume 152,000 Energy Points, raising the degree of deconstruction to 100%]

Noland consumed 1520 Energy Points to launch the deconstruction and immediately closed “Mind Vision.”

The wizard’s name was Plin.

He was a six-ringed Metal Battle Wizard from a medium-sized wizard faction, “Imperishable Metal.”

Noland got limited panel information, unable to determine whether Plin was Fagen’s spy or not. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Based on the information obtained, it would be quite difficult to instantly kill this six-ringed Metal Wizard using a death spell.

It was probably because Plin knew he would be facing Noland Lee and had adjusted the energy reflection coating of his Magic Metal Armor in advance.

He adjusted the reflection rate of the coating for death energy to 93%.

Meanwhile, the energy absorption barrier inside him could absorb 99% of the death energy that wasn’t reflected.

Only the death energy that was neither reflected nor absorbed could inflict substantial damage on him.

Noland estimated that he would need to deal 257,000 points of death energy damage in a single hit to take him down instantly.

This difficulty was much higher than instantly killing a “Magic Shield School” wizard of the same level.

There’s no way around it, manually increasing the resistance to a particular energy damage to almost 99% is the exclusive feature of the “Magic Metal Armor School.”

This is resistance piled up by purchasing a large amount of magic metal with money.

Describing it with money-spending ability isn’t an exaggeration at all.

However…

Heh-heh.

When it comes to defending against mental magic, the “Magic Metal Armor School” can only choose between using a “Mental Shield” spell and wearing a “Mental Protection Pendant.”

After all, the mind is intangible and belongs to the spiritual level, which cannot be protected by physical objects like magic metal.

If Noland were to kill Plin without leaving a trace, he would have to rely on “Psychic Bombardment.”

Noland conceived a plan to kill the enemy instantly but didn’t act immediately.

For one thing, when the enemy’s wizard level is higher than his, the effect of “Psychic Bombardment” is greatly reduced.

On the other hand, so far, Noland Lee had not found any evidence to prove the relationship between Plin and Dickler Fagen.

If Plin is not related to Fagen, then killing him would be a wrongful homicide.

Noland once again cast “Mind Vision,” found Plin disguised as a tree, and launched deconstruction.

After a slight trance, Noland exhausted 15,000 Energy Points to obtain more information about Plin.

“Resurrection Witch Contractor” appeared on the panel obtained from deconstruction.

Noland raised an eyebrow and roughly understood the purpose of this guy’s arrival.

Now, Noland could be sure that Plin was a helper found by Dickler Fagen, and there was absolutely no possibility of accidentally injuring him.

“Well, well, Fagen. Not only did you target the baseless extraordinary traits on me and find the Demon Brain Race, but you also targeted my contracted relationship with Denise Green and found another Resurrection Witch Contractor, plotting for my Resurrection Magic Source. This is your plan.”

The rules set by the “Lantern of the Reborn” are:

Only Resurrection Witches of the same level with contractors can plunder each other’s Rebirth Magic Power or allow their contractors to seize the “Resurrection Magic Source” from the other contractor.

Denise Green is currently at the three-circled level.

So, the Resurrection Witch who could deal with her must also be a three-circled one.

Intimate companion witches and contractors usually go out together.

In other words, there’s a companion witch hiding within about a hundred kilometers of Plin.

Noland felt a slight tingling in his heart and a sneaky urge to take over the enemy’s wellspring…

So, where is Plin’s companion witch?

Noland didn’t plan to search the islands within a radius of hundreds of kilometers in depth. This activity was a bit tiring.

What if the other party’s companion witch didn’t come here, but hid in the inner circle instead? Then his effort would be in vain.

Noland decided to use the Deconstruction Technique on Puri, spending about 60,000 Energy Points to raise the degree of deconstruction to 50%.

In this way, he should be able to find the whereabouts of the other party’s companion witch in her memory fragments.
