Wizard: I Can Refine Everything-Chapter 271 - 55: The Fleeing Fire Lizard King
Chapter 271 -55: The Fleeing Fire Lizard King
Seeing the Fire Lizard King Morick suddenly appear in the sky, a flicker of excitement passed through Richard’s heart.
Morick had finally returned. If he hadn’t come back soon, the war in the Red Sun World would have been over.
“Heskan, go and call the miners up from below, and make it quick,” Richard ordered loudly to Heskan.
Upon hearing the order, Heskan’s face was full of astonishment.
He trembled and said, “My Lord, the news of Emperor Morick’s return must not be let known to the workers below.
They’ll revolt!”
“Revolt?” A cruel smile flashed across Richard’s face, “Trust me, Heskan.
They won’t revolt. Hurry up and call them all out.”
Seeing Richard’s firm stance, Heskan could only tremblingly take the minecart to notify the miners underground.
Being in charge of the mining district was not without its price; the Soul Contract he had signed with Richard had very strict terms. If he did not obey Richard’s orders, Richard could shatter his soul with a single thought.
“Right, take this with you.”
As if remembering something, Richard flashed beside Heskan and pulled out a scroll from his pocket.
“This is a Short-Distance Space Jump Scroll. Tear it open and it will transport you to my side. Those fire lizards below might have a few fanatics among them, so be careful not to die down there.”
Gratefully accepting the scroll with tears, Hesman, the servile follower, hadn’t served in vain; Lord Richard still had him in mind.
“Yes, my Lord. I will be careful.”
In the sky, the incredibly imposing Morick drew the attention of all beings in the Red Sun World as soon as he appeared.
Both Wizards and fire lizards now focused their gaze on this World Master who had vanished for thirty years.
The mountains of the Minar Empire, the mining tunnels of the Morick Empire, the islands above the Molten Sea… all hidden areas of fire lizards watched Morick’s return with tears streaming down their faces.
Thirty years, and their king had finally returned!
But in the next moment, an immensely large and complicated Magic Array emerged from the Void, and two Space Rifts appeared right in front of Morick, as Great Wizard Qing Shuang and the Great Wizard of Prison Fire both descended onto the battlefield.
“Wizard! I’d like to see what tricks you have up your sleeve this time!”
Morick, upon seeing the appearance of the Great Wizard of Prison Fire, suddenly radiated a scorching light. He reached out and caught a Light Spear in his hand, the terrifying power making even space struggle to hold, with tiny Space Rifts continuously appearing around the spear.
Compared to Minar, Morick had become much more skilled in harnessing his own strength. The same move, Minar struggled with, but Morick did it with ease.
“Die!”
The Light Spear was thrown, its terrible power instantly tearing open the space in front of him. But upon seeing the Light Spear sink into the Void, the Great Wizard of Prison Fire’s face showed a hint of surprise.
“To think that you’ve grasped some of the rules of space in thirty years. Impressive, indeed.”
A sinister Space Rift suddenly appeared in front of the Great Wizard of Prison Fire, and behind the rift was the Light Spear carrying a terrifying aura.
“But I’m not your teacher, and your shallow application of the rules won’t earn my praise.”
With an unchanged expression, the Great Wizard of Prison Fire moved his melting Skeletal Magic Wand slightly, and the terrible Light Spear paused in the Void for a moment. In that instant, the Great Wizard of Prison Fire calmly dodged it.
Like a meteor streaking across the sky, the Light Spear eventually landed on the World Barrier at the edge of the world, turning into a dazzling burst of light, as if the third sun that had fallen with Linksa’s death had risen once again.
With his attack failing, Morick knew he no longer had a chance to strike.
In the blink of an eye that he launched his attack, the huge Magic Array beside him had already begun to activate. Two Great Wizards had spent twenty years on this massive Magic Array, and its effects were naturally terrifying.
As it activated, the space around Morick suddenly solidified, followed by a rapid weakening of his aura.
This Magic Array actually cut off the Power of the World bestowed upon Morick by the world itself, and although this was only temporary, a World Master without the enhancement of the Power of the World was nothing more than a tooth-less rabid dog before a Wizard, with no outcome but death.
“Cackle cackle cackle, I haven’t forgotten you over these years.”
The Great Wizard of Prison Fire chuckled strangely, then opened a Space Rift and took out a Crystal Ball from it.
Something seemed to be sealed within the Crystal Ball, with countless mysterious Runes appearing and disappearing inside it. The moment it appeared, all the Magic Power in the sky seemed to flow towards it like rivers into the sea.
An even larger Magic Array rapidly extended from the Crystal Ball, covering half of the sky in the blink of an eye.
But Morick’s expression did not change; his aura remained wildly dominant, his light nearly outshining the sun in the sky.
In his mind flashed countless years past, when there were no “Free Men,” and the Red Sun World consisted only of giant dragons and their slaves. He was just reaching adulthood then.
The battle among giant dragons triggered a volcanic eruption; a massive amount of red-hot magma and volcanic ash erupted from the caldera, instantly engulfing his family. His parents and wife all perished in this “disaster,” leaving only the egg cradled in his wife’s arms.
It was in this “disaster” that he found the object that would change his life and the future of the Fire Lizard Clan.
His Talent actually wasn’t very good. Before this disaster, he hadn’t even awakened his Dragon Blood.
But after the disaster, he found a peculiar Fire Element Gem in the magma. The Fire Element Gem looked like a test tube, and when he opened it, a drop of crimson blood flowed out from the tube into his body.
This drop of blood changed his body and his destiny. From that point on, his strength soared, passing through First Level, Second Level, Third Level. His pace of Evolution grew faster and faster.
In the end, he became the Fire Lizard Clan’s first World Master, thus starting the prelude to their rebellion against giant dragons.
But after becoming a Fifth Level World Master, the effects of that drop of blood seemed to fade away.
Until he lived for thirty years in that pitch-black Void, full of fearsome beings, wrestling with the internal interrogation of his brother’s death and the tragedy of the Fire Lizard Clan.
In those thirty years, he had constantly thought of taking revenge on the Wizard, and that drop of blood had revived once more within this utmost conviction.
It was only then he realized that it wasn’t that the blood had lost its effect, but rather, after overturning the Giant Dragon, he no longer possessed that firm conviction.
Morick said silently, “My brother, come back and help me.”
The next moment, the Great Wizard’s face changed drastically.
“Qing Shuang, prepare the Sealing Skill!”
He saw Morick, trapped in the center of the Magic Array, from whose body a golden shadow emerged, bearing an uncanny resemblance to the fallen Fire Lizard King Linksa.
No, not exactly alike. This golden figure looked noticeably younger than Linksa.
“Big brother, I’ve come to help you.”
The golden figure, seemingly the dead Linksa himself, raised his arms high and smashed them down forcefully. The space around Morick, which had been solidified by the Magic Array, instantly shattered into fragments.
Upon seeing this, the Great Wizard’s eyes shifted from shock to fervor, and he called out loudly to Great Wizard Qing Shuang.
“A World Master Level True Illusion! Excellent, truly excellent! Qing Shuang, help me hold him off for a moment!”
The Great Wizard tore open a Space Rift and continuously pulled out various objects from within. These objects looked bizarre: a Crystal Skull that kept screaming, a branch burning with black Flames, a mummified corpse wrapped in bandages, a withered claw from some unknown creature…
These items seemed unrelated but were all brought out by the Great Wizard at this moment.
The Great Wizard murmured an incantation and ultimately pulled out something from his pocket that Richard hadn’t expected—a Curse Worm covered in black patterns!
The Great Wizard was also a Curse Wizard!
Morick had no idea what the Great Wizard was doing, but he detected an extremely dangerous aura in his actions.
He lifted his arm and threw a punch, a glow on his knuckles shining bright as the Great Sun illuminating the world.
Great Wizard Qing Shuang tried to intercept but was stopped by Linksa’s phantom.
“Wizard, you face me!”
Great Wizard Qing Shuang coldly replied, “Is that so?”
The next moment, a Space Rift opened beside the Great Wizard, and another Great Wizard Qing Shuang stepped out from the rift, rushing straight towards Morick.
And Morick threw his punch once more.
Boom… Boom…
The thunderous roar exploded in the sky, and Great Wizard Qing Shuang’s clone burst apart, merely to withstand Morick’s punch.
Even so, the punch hadn’t been blocked.
The searing light passed through the fog and reached the Great Wizard in the blink of an eye.
But the Great Wizard made no move to react, continuing to recite the ancient chant.
Suddenly, Morick’s face turned pale with fear as he scanned his surroundings as though searching for something.
And the ball of light he had cast also dissipated right in front of the Great Wizard.
Within the ancient chant of the Great Wizard, an illusion of a Balance appeared before him, and the various items he had taken out were all placed on one side.

After the light dissipated, parts of those items had disappeared without a trace.
“Great Nameless Dominator, I offer these sacrifices to you, and I hope you will Seal this Fire Lizard.”
The Great Wizard addressed his plea to the Nameless Dominator as the Balance illusion started to tilt following his words.
Eventually, the empty side touched the ground.
His sacrifice was insufficient.
The Great Wizard frowned in concentration, tore open space again, and took out more strangely-auraed items, hoping to continue the exchange.
But Morick wasn’t planning to indulge him any longer.
Morick watched the Balance illusion in terror; he could feel that a terrifying and grand entity had set its gaze upon this place.
His previous attack had been nullified by that grand being.
One word flashed through Morick’s mind.
Escape!
Better to preserve the green mountains than worry about no firewood.
Morick tore through space, and his form along with Linksa’s phantom vanished from the Red Sun World in an instant.
The Great Wizard, in a rush, quickly placed those strange items onto the Balance.
“Great Nameless Dominator, I offer these sacrifices to you and ask that you leave a mark on that Fire Lizard for me to track.”
The Balance tipped, and this time it finally leveled out.
In the Star Realm, Morick, having fled the Red Sun World, tensed as a mark of the Balance slowly emerged behind him.
Back in the Red Sun World, the same mark of the Balance also appeared on the Great Wizard’s arm.
“Fire Lizard, you can’t run!”
