Wizard: Starts with Advanced Meditation

Soon, Hughes and Jacques ran one after the other to the experimental table, the place where Leibni extracted souls.

On the large platform, a burly figure was clearly bound.

His entire body was covered in milky-white scales, and several broken knives lay scattered nearby.

The exaggerated arc of the blade clearly showed that they had just been trying to pry open the scales to inject an anesthetic into the other person's body.

The other two had already arrived by then, and Leibni was sitting in a corner, seemingly lost in thought.

As for Lawrence, he gritted his teeth and endured the insults coming from the other party's mouth while his hands kept moving, looking for the other party's weakness.

"Hahaha...you brat."

On the experimental table, the bloodline wizard stood with his mouth wide open, a constant smile in his eyes.

"I can smell that you're over a hundred years old, aren't you? At that age, you still haven't advanced to a half-pool wizard?"

Upon hearing this, Lawrence immediately looked indignant, yet helpless.

They had tried all those specially made dissecting instruments, but they couldn't even pry open or cut through the scales on the other side's surface.

As for using witchcraft, it must be capable of causing harm.

However, they absolutely must not harm the experimental subject in the slightest unless absolutely necessary.

After all, this is a bloodline wizard who has created a pool full of them.

Whether it's the parts of his body or the symbolic blood that was estimated to have been transplanted at a rate of over 60%, they are all incredibly precious materials.

However, just as the bloodline wizard was about to continue his insults, Hughes and his group had already arrived at the experimental table.

"Lawrence, how's the situation now?"

"Jack asked."

"Unless you use specialized dissection equipment for treating level two magical beasts."

Lawrence glanced at Hughes, his face expressionless.

"But I estimate that those instruments will also be affected to some extent."

Upon hearing this, Jak stepped forward, patted Hughes on the back, and said in a deep voice:

"Hughes, it's up to you now. Give it a try."

Hughes nodded and then walked to one end of the experimental table, where Lawrence was standing.

Upon seeing the other party approach, Lawrence wisely stepped aside and refrained from causing further trouble.

Over the past few months, Hughes's contribution to the experiment's progress has been evident to all, so naturally he no longer dared to make sarcastic remarks.

"Hahaha, a younger scent, still a human boy."

Seeing that it was a different person, the bloodline wizard didn't stop there and continued to make sarcastic remarks.

But Hughes showed no reaction to this, observing the other's body with a blank expression.

Aside from the milky-white scales covering its body, its most distinctive feature was undoubtedly its head, which was almost completely transformed into a beast.

That was clearly a snake's head.

Not only were its scalp and cheeks covered with smooth scales, but its open mouth also had two large, sharp teeth.

Hughes glanced at the body and found that the only traces of human form remaining were the eyes that had not yet turned into vertical pupils and the tongue that had not yet split.

"This guy had too high a concentration of transplanted substances, and as a result, his consciousness was contaminated by bestiality."

Gack explained from the side.

"As a result, he ate a few people, then a few wizards, and then he was arrested."

Upon hearing this, the bloodline wizard on the stage became even more smug, arrogantly saying:

"Hey! That breakfast (arm) wasn't enough! If you don't want your test subjects to starve, please send some people over! Hahahaha!!!!"

"..."

At the same time, Hughes had already closed his eyes and began frantically drawing spiritual energy from the world of consciousness.

—Buzzing…

Soon, an invisible ripple quietly appeared in front of him, a manifestation of highly concentrated mental energy.

"Buzzing—"

A few seconds later, the ripples became more solid, to the point that they were clearly visible to the naked eye.

"This—could it be mental solidification?!"

Gak, standing nearby, had already sensed the terrifying mental energy fluctuations that Hughes was gathering in front of him, and couldn't help but swallow hard.

"How is that possible?"

Lawrence retorted.

"He's a certified wizard, how could his mental power be solidified?!"

As for Leibni in the corner, he silently watched Hughes, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

In a way, Lawrence was right.

Hughes's mental energy at this moment had not yet reached the point of solidification—after all, that was a technique that only a second-level wizard could master.

Even so, such a level of mental power would make even a master wizard feel uneasy.

"..."

Meanwhile, the bloodline wizard on the experimental table had already shut his mouth.

The surging spiritual energy fluctuations before him caused him a sense of unease.

Fortunately, the experimental table only sealed his magic pool, not his world of consciousness.

So he quickly mobilized his mental energy to set up a mental barrier.

"Hehe, scared now, huh!"

Beside him, Jak grinned maliciously and immediately unleashed a mental shock he had prepared beforehand, affecting the opponent's movements.

"boom--!"

If a full-pool wizard truly wanted to defend, it would indeed be difficult for a bottom-pool wizard to inflict damage with their mental power alone.

This is why, from beginning to end, no matter how vehemently the bloodline wizard insulted them, they did not stop him...

"Buzzing!!!"

At the same time, Hughes had a thought and began to manipulate the large amount of mental energy that he had already gathered.

The next moment, the ball of spiritual energy trembled slightly and instantly condensed into a sharp cone shape.

Immediately, taking advantage of the gap that Gaker had created for himself, he did not hesitate at all and immediately activated the mental spikes in front of him, aiming them straight at the bloodline wizard's face.

The next moment, the cone-shaped ripple flashed slightly and instantly pierced through the bloodline wizard's head.

"Whoosh—!"

In an instant, the mental barrier that the bloodline wizard had just condensed shattered.

Immediately afterwards, the mental spikes pierced deep into his consciousness.

"No--!!"

The next moment, his pupils began to tremble violently, but quickly became unfocused and lost their luster.

The next second, he closed his eyes and fainted on the lab table.

"Thump—"

At the same time, after releasing the mental spikes, Hughes' body trembled violently and he was about to fall to the ground.

Fortunately, Jak caught him in time.

"Thank you for your hard work, Hughes."

Gack patted him on the back.

"You should go and rest first. Now it's Leibni's turn to deal with this."

Hughes nodded, found a place nearby to sit down, and began to meditate.

In order to make it effective against the full pool of wizards, he actually extracted a large amount of spiritual energy this time to condense this meager spiritual energy spike.

Fortunately, the effect was remarkable, successfully causing one of the wizards in the pool to faint on the spot.
