Wizard: Start with Biological Transformation to Grind Experience novel Chapter 81

Chapter 81: 021: Kill them all or what?

"Boom!" A thunderous explosion echoed through the cavern, shaking its entirety.

The rapidly bloating Knight’s corpse burst apart with a deafening roar, sending flesh and bone fragments flying in all directions, propelled by a violent surge of energy.

The transformed Lizard Apprentice happened to be directly in front of this Explosion Knight at the moment, as if a grenade had been tossed onto its body. Even the formidable physique of the giant lizard couldn’t endure such a devastating blow.

In an instant, the giant lizard was sent flying, its tail and half of its body blown to smithereens, landing on the ground with a blood-curdling scream.

Corpse Explosion!

This is a 0-ring low-level spell of the Necromancy school, where injecting a trace of Dark Attribute Elemental Energy into a corpse stimulates the residual energy within, causing a massive explosive impact.

Though it is of a low level, the spell is quite unique because its power doesn’t primarily depend on the caster’s own strength—it relies heavily on the medium used to unleash the explosion, namely the body to be detonated.

As a Mid-level Apprentice, Lynch can theoretically activate mediums equivalent to High-level Apprentice units at maximum potential, producing explosive power that reaches High-level Apprentice-level damage.

Necromancy spells often demand high-quality mediums, but their resulting power is equally astonishing.

There are many similar spells, such as certain rare Bloodline magic spells or even the Divine Attribute Magic that Avery cast here. They might be of low spell levels but possess power far surpassing their ranks.

Ultimately, the spell levels defined by Wizards are broad categorizations, though a handful of spells exist outside these confines due to special circumstances. However, such spells are relatively rare.

The chaotic skirmish within the cavern seemed to pause momentarily following the thunderous explosion.

"Avery, are you okay?"

Taking advantage of the brief lull, Lucas and Lynch rushed to Avery’s side. At the same time, Adam swiftly disengaged from his opponent and retreated.

Avery shook her head. "I’m fine."

As she spoke, her expression turned puzzled as she glanced toward Lynch, standing beside Lucas. The earlier powerful Dark Attribute spell had clearly originated from him. Where did Lynch learn such a potent spell? Furthermore...

Avery distinctly sensed that the spiritual fluctuations around Lynch currently matched those of a Mid-level Apprentice.

What was going on?

Lucas, seemingly noticing the confusion on Avery’s face, gestured at Lynch and succinctly explained, "He’s the Shadow Sword!"

"What!"

Avery and Adam visibly flinched, their expressions just as conflicted as Lucas’s had been upon first hearing the revelation.

Unfortunately, the current dire situation left no opportunity for Avery or Adam to comprehend the full story.

"Corpse Explosion?"

A sharp voice rang out. On the side of the Blood Origin Cult, a man with a twisted visage and a slightly deranged expression shouted at Lynch, "Who are you? How do you know Wizard Morris’s Corpse Explosion?"

The Corpse Explosion spell did not originate from the Shadow Tower but was instead discovered in Richard’s Space Ring in the past.

Given its devastating power, the spell holds some notoriety within the Black Tower Alliance. However, its steep learning curve requires a significant mastery of Necromancy to understand deeply. Even in the Shadow Swamp, few apprentices have successfully grasped it.
