Chapter 12 'Lock'

There is a huge amount of soul resentment in the 'Beast Summoning Flute', which shows how many lives this magician named Margosey has killed.

There was nothing wrong with being called an 'evil magician' by Luo Qiu.

But Margosaeus himself did not think there was anything wrong with the killing.

In his mind, for the coming of that adult, everyone should smile even if all the creatures in the world die in despair.

After all, he is such a great being. What's wrong with giving up everything for him? Even devoting one's entire life to faith is just a basic operation like I do.

Foolish human beings must accept despair and die obediently, and their souls must become lights to guide the way.

This is the sanction imposed on mortals in the Margosae organization.

Margosae had never expected to meet such a powerful magician adventurer.

Only when he really stood opposite the opponent did Margosse feel how insignificant he was.

All along, although Margosae clearly knew that his strength was at the top among humans, there were still a few exceptions who broke the "lock" and could easily defeat him.

The leader of the organization is one of them.

Being able to use great magic easily and possessing an extremely strong physique, Margosae once thought that this was the pinnacle that humans could reach, a powerful existence that surpassed the glory-level adventurers - the 'Breakthrough'.

The leader gave Margosae the feeling of a mountain that he could only look up to but was difficult to climb.

But Margose always believed that as long as he continued to practice hard, he would be able to reach that level, and that seemingly unattainable peak would be conquered by him one day.

And the man in front of me...

Just like the stars shining in the night sky, so bright and dazzling, yet high above, as if you can hold them in your palm if you stretch out your hand, and you can see them clearly with the naked eye, but they are truly out of reach, truly illusory.

A transcendent being that exists only in people's ideals and transcends everything.

"Can you use fighting skills?"

Before the battle started, Luo Qiu asked a question that he was very interested in.

If this person can use fighting skills, then he is still worth using. Observing the special power system unique to the other world is also one of Luo Qiu's few interests and hobbies.

By the way, you can also judge whether there is any difference between fighting skills and the skills of the warriors in "Burning God Realm", and whether there is any possibility of threatening yourself.

"Fighting skills?" Margosai shook his head subconsciously. He didn't have that talent. Although he tried, he couldn't generate fighting spirit in his body no matter what. In the end, he just trained his physical fitness to a very high level.

It was only because Margosaeus's talent in magic was too outstanding that he gave up his warrior training and had no systematic training in swordsmanship and other combat skills.

Indulging in the practice of magic was enough for Margotha.

There is no shortcut on the road to becoming a strong person. Instead of pursuing the illusory fighting spirit, it is better to practice magic to the extreme.

That's why Margosey has achieved his current success, although it is not worth mentioning in Luo Qiu's eyes.

"No?" A hint of disappointment flashed across Luo Qiu's eyes.

Then, Luo Qiu said seriously: "I have given you several chances, but you never took them. However, since you gave a decent performance, I will give you one last chance. As long as you can survive this blow, I will let you go."

Having obtained a lot of information from Margosa, Luo Qiu felt that it was time for him to leave.

Although Luo Qiu himself is not the kind of person who would help others when he sees injustice, he will still help when he encounters something that he doesn't like but is within his ability to do something about.

This place was not like the game world of "Burning God" where one could still be resurrected from the resurrection point after death. Everything here was real. If he were not here, the villagers of Fenwen Village would have suffered a devastating disaster, and the entire village would have died in despair under the ravages of the goblin army.

So this is already a very merciful option that Luo Qiu can give.

"Can you survive the attack?" Margosai had a complicated thought. If it was any other human, even a 'breakthrough', who said this, Margosai would have enough confidence.

"This world doesn't have humans who can kill themselves instantly."

This is what Margosae always thought.

But now that his magic power has been depleted and his body is injured both internally and externally, is it possible for him to survive a blow from this 'monster' in front of him that can use world-class magic?
This is not an ordinary competition; the icy murderous aura cannot be faked.

"Don't say I didn't give you a chance. You should have some recovery potions, use them as much as you want. I will wait until you are back to perfect condition before I take action."

Luo Qiu said lightly.

Margosai, who had been in despair, seemed to see a glimmer of hope after hearing Luo Qiu's words. If he could recover his magic power and physical injuries, then there might really be a glimmer of hope.
Who would want to die if there is hope to survive? Margose is no exception.

He took out several bottles of blue potion and two bottles of green potion from his arms.

They are 'Healing Potion' and 'Magic Potion' respectively.

The 'healing potion' for healing injuries is considered a standard potion for adventurers. Adventurers above the Black Iron level will prepare a bottle before going on a mission in case of emergency. The effect is roughly between the apprentice magic and elementary magic of the healing system. If the quality is high, it may even be close to intermediate magic. Generally, adventurers with enough money will buy several bottles.

The 'magic potion' used to restore magic power is a rare potion. Only one bottle is needed to replenish a considerable amount of magic power. Its value is ridiculously high. Only top adventurers are equipped with potions of this level. For example, Margosey only has three bottles of 'magic potion' in reserve.

After opening the cork of the 'healing potion' and gulping down three bottles of it, good effects immediately appeared. The external injuries on the body were gradually healed at a degree visible to the naked eye, and the trauma suffered inside the body was also constantly healed by the potion. It is worthy of being a standard potion, and the effect is still quite good.

After drinking the 'magic potion', Margosae's almost exhausted magic power seemed to be revitalized, like a rushing river pouring into the dry land, and in just a moment, the magic power in his body became extremely full.

The effects of the two potions satisfied Margose and were also within his expectations. After all, it was not the first time he had used them.

This level alone is far from enough. More preparation is needed to fight against humans of this "monster" level.

Margose took out another bottle of purple potion, looked at it with a little heartache, and drank it without hesitation.

'Magic Amplification Potion' is an absolutely rare potion, made by top alchemists using a large amount of rare materials, with a success rate of only one in three. It can increase the user's magic power by nearly half, and also reduce magic chanting time for a period of time after use, thus strengthening the magic effect. The great alchemist only made six bottles of this potion in total.

Margose was just lucky enough to get one of the bottles, and he always treated it as a treasure. Even no one in the organization knew that he had this ultra-rare potion. In the past, although Margose faced desperate situations several times, he never took the medicine until today when he had to take out his last trump card.

It was the first time he drank this level of potion, and a power he had never felt before filled his whole body. Both his magic power and perception had almost reached their limit. Under the effect of the 'magic potion', most of Margose's magic power had been restored. With the addition of this bottle of 'magic amplification potion', his magic power quickly returned to its usual peak.

The effect of the rare potion is not limited to this. Margose only feels that the magic power is expanding more and more, and there is a feeling of gradual transformation. Unfortunately, when the magic power continues to rise and reaches a certain point, the magic power can no longer be increased. Even the effect of the "magic amplification potion" is useless. It is as if there is a kind of confinement that firmly locks the body and can only accommodate so much magic power.

"Is this... the 'lock'?" At this moment, he actually felt the existence of the 'lock'! This means that with the help of the 'magic amplification potion', Margosai has touched another realm with one hand, the realm of the 'breakthrough'. Margosai was extremely ecstatic. If he could successfully break the 'lock', he might be able to gain the power to deal with Luo Qiu.

The shackles that fate has bestowed on mankind are unbreakable fetters.

The power of the 'lock' was too strong. No matter how hard Margosey tried to break free, his magic seemed feeble and powerless. He couldn't even shake it. He had no choice but to give up. It was not so easy to break the 'lock'. No matter how powerful the 'magic amplification potion' was, it couldn't help people break this natural human restriction. After several unsuccessful attacks, Margosey had to give up.

If he could return alive this time and continue to practice for a while, he might really have a chance to step into that legendary realm and completely surpass mortals.

"I must go back alive!" Margosaeus' desire to survive has never been so strong.

"Interesting, the magic power has reached the limit of what the body can bear and is restricted as a result?"

Under the 'Eye of Living Beings', Luo Qiu could see clearly all of Margosai's little movements, but Margosai's failure to break the 'lock' disappointed Luo Qiu again. He had been looking forward to what level this person could reach after breaking through his limit.

"Are you ready?" Luo Qiu said with some displeasure.

Luo Qiu's sudden anger was like a violent storm, and even the heaven and earth were infected by his anger.

"Okay... okay..." Margosse replied tremblingly.

Under the influence of such a terrifying aura, he didn't even dare to think of lying.
