Wizard: Starts with Advanced Meditation

Soon, as the walls shattered, the demonic fire elements that had been roaming the room rushed toward the cracks.

Soon, the temperature dropped rapidly, and without the suppression of the elements, Ysera immediately released a powerful icy aura around her.

At the same time, Clotilde's figure was clearly visible at the crack.

His body was covered with a layer of jet-black ice armor, and his eyes were extremely cold.

"This...this!"

The situation reversed instantly, and Leibni felt a sense of despair as he watched the two second-level wizards approaching him.

Because he needed to break through the barrier of the Myriad-Edge Pagoda, the teleportation array beneath his feet would need a little more time.

Originally, he only needed to be wary of Ysera, who was also suppressed by the demonized fire element and whose strength was affected because she had just tampered with Milro's soul.

But now, his accumulated demonic fire element has been largely lost, and he now has to deal with Klotir, who is more inclined to physical attacks with ice element.

"Did you already find out? You were just acting on me the whole time."

He said through gritted teeth.

To everyone's surprise, Ysera gently shook her head upon hearing this.

"I was really fooled by you. I didn't expect you to be so bold. Even after I found out, you still tried to fake your death to get away with it, but..."

Then, she changed the subject, her tone playful:

"However, when I conduct such important experiments, in order to prevent uncontrollable accidents, I usually ask a helper to watch over the experimental area."

"That way, if something goes wrong during the experiment, he won't be affected and can get here quickly."

Ysera invited Clotilde to prevent a riot by the level 2 ice elemental lifeforms.

Unexpectedly, this ice elemental life form, instead of rebelling, did something even more troublesome.

"Isera, the materials you bought are really hard. I bumped into them for quite a while."

At this moment, Clotilde had also arrived at the field and was walking slowly toward Leibni.

The next moment, without the slightest hesitation, he raised his hand and conjured several pitch-black ice spikes, which he then shot toward Leibni.

"Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!"

"Don't even think about it!"

Upon seeing this, Leibni immediately raised his hand and erected thick, enchanted ice walls all around him.

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

At the same time, all the ice spikes that were shot at suddenly converged together in mid-air.

"Click—"

The next second, they merged together and then began to deform and stretch like rubber.

"Click—Squeak—"

In the blink of an eye, the fused ice spikes stretched into a slender needle, which then pierced straight into the ice wall in front of them.

"Bang!"

With a crisp sound, the long needle pierced through the first ice wall without any resistance, and then the second, the third...

"ah!!"

Soon, Leibni's screams echoed from inside the ice wall.

On the teleportation array, a long needle pierced straight through his body, pinning him firmly to the ground.

"Gurgle gurgle..."

Not only that, the long needle that was supposed to pierce the ground suddenly extended, turning into a thick layer of ice film that instantly enveloped his body.

"No……"

Leibni tried to break free of his restraints, only to find that the ice membrane, which had been as soft as glue, had hardened again, becoming like a solid iron wall, rendering him unable to move.

"Rumble..."

At the same time, Ysera raised her hand and moved away all the ice walls around Leibni, revealing his disheveled appearance.

"Hughes...destroy the teleportation array beneath his feet."

Upon hearing this, Hughes glanced at the immobilized Leibni, then quickly stepped forward, bent down, and lightly tapped a rune beside him with his fingertip.

"Buzz—!"

A massive amount of spatial energy instantly overflowed from his fingertips, immediately disrupting the teleportation array that was anchoring to its target.

"Bang—"

After a soft popping sound, the rune exploded into tiny particles.

"..."

Upon seeing this, Leibni's gaze suddenly froze.

He knew that he was about to face the torment of a second-level wizard.

"No... Lady Ysera, I!"

As Leibni watched Isera slowly walking towards him, he felt a wave of despair wash over him.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but the other party didn't give him a chance to speak.

"Whoosh—Buzz."

In an instant, Ysera once again rippled that strange light on her hand, then gently reached out towards Leibni's head, probing directly into the depths of his consciousness.

"Uh...ah..."

Just seconds later, Leibni completely lost his consciousness.

His soul structure, like Mirro's, was altered by Ysera, turning him into her servant.

"It's a pity. Although this level is barely at level two, it's actually all thanks to the remaining soul of Milro."

Isera frowned, then withdrew her hands.

"Damn it... a large portion of the soul of a level two wizard is actually the soul of a level one wizard. This is a real headache!"

"Then remove the part that belongs to a first-level wizard, leaving only the part of the soul that belongs to Milro."

Clotilde walked over and raised his hand to dispel the ice membrane still covering Leibni.

"But it's definitely not the complete 'Milro' anymore. The process of eliminating it will inevitably affect his soul, and the remaining intelligence... will probably be lower."

Upon hearing this, Isera's face immediately darkened. She looked at Leibni, who was now in a daze, with a hint of gloom in her eyes.

"That's all we can do."

She gritted her teeth, already devising countless ways to torment the other person.

Then, she turned to look at Hughes and the others who were standing not far away.

"You may all leave now. The experiment is officially over. The promised reward will be paid later."

Having witnessed the chaos of the night, everyone knew that Ysera was in an extremely bad mood, so they dared not say anything more and immediately left the spire.

……

"Tsk tsk, Hughes, it's really hard to believe that the seemingly taciturn Leibni actually harbors such a big ambition!"

After leaving the spire, Gack, who was quite familiar with Hughes, came over.

"Now look what's happened. He's offended a level two wizard. I reckon he'll be in worse shape than if he were dead."

Meanwhile, Hughes, standing next to Jacques, was deep in thought about what had just happened.

From the conversation between the two men, he had already deduced the general outline of the whole matter.

As the whole story unfolded, and considering Leibni's strange mental fluctuations, Hughes's previous doubts about him vanished instantly.

"So... you've always been a spirit?"
