?Chapter 113: Chapter 113 The Terrifying “Steam Wizard”_1 Chapter 113: Chapter 113 The Terrifying “Steam Wizard”_1 “Five Transcendents,”

“One of them is Third Rank, with a Level of at least 35.”

“The Levels of the other four are all above 25 as well.”

“Damn it, this is a squad of Transcendents.”

Through the “Projection Window” of the Magical Alchemy Hut, Barkin saw the sneaky intruders outside and felt his Wrath gauge rapidly rising.

Clearly, he had seen Tuck in the same way just before.

Through “Precision Vision,” Tuck had clearly discerned the Levels and Transcendent Sequences of the squad members outside.

After inspecting them for a moment, Tuck’s peripheral vision shifted towards Barkin.

“This squad of Transcendents doesn’t quite match up with the two Third Rank Transcendents Barkin mentioned.”

“Clearly, Barkin is hiding something.”

“What on earth did this guy do to have so many people come to besiege him?”

“Is it because of that Dragon Scale?”

“Surely a mere Dragon Scale isn’t enough to send a squad after him!”

The more Tuck thought about it, the more he felt that there was clearly more to the situation than met the eye.

Having loaded his gun, Barkin now raised his “Wail.”

He seemed ready to rush out and fight desperately should the enemies discover him.

“Barkin!”

Turning his gaze from the outside, Tuck looked towards Barkin.

“What?”

“Since we’ve already signed the contract, it’s my duty to carry out my ‘Bodyguard’ responsibilities.”

“They are five in number, and each of them has a higher Level than you.”

He clearly trusted his weapon more than the 19-Level Wizard standing before him.

Tuck simply stated.

“You… just keep watch.”

As Tuck began to chant the spell under his breath.

Woo woo…

The faint roaring of steam swirled into the air.

Origin Energy Steam billowed from Tuck’s ears and nostrils continuously.

Being of insufficient level, Tuck was unable to fully contain the “Steam Phantom”; as his Level increased, it would naturally come under control.

The power of Rune Spiritual Hand began to converge.

Tuck, who had previously used Spiritual Perception to secretly absorb Alchemy Books as well as manuscripts and diagrams from the Dwarf Alchemist Barkin’s Rune Hand through Spiritual Reading, now retracted it.

The power of the Spirit Realm swiftly descended and began congregating on the Rune Hand.

The potent “Spiritual Hand” started to show its true form.

Outlined with dark gold runes.

Within the purple energy lines flowed high-intensity Origin Energy Steam.

The interior was even reinforced with a framework of Spiritual Realm powers.

As the “Spiritual Hand” was fully formed,

A Three-Star Rune Curse “Rune Hand of Spiritual Nature,” as immense and fearsome as double doors, was completed.

And Barkin, witnessing this scene from the sidelines, had his not-so-large eyes now bulging wide.

He couldn’t help but take several steps backward until he steadied himself against a wooden rack.

“Steam Wizard… this guy is a Steam Wizard.”

“And he has… mastered powerful Rune-level spells.”

“You know, it’s genius for an Intermediate Transcendent to have mastered Rune Mystery.”

“This guy is only Level 19. Damn… is he a super genius from St. Land?”

Before, Barkin had thought Tuck was just one of the more agile Wizards.

That’s why he was able to dodge his shots.

Now it seemed that if the Steam Wizard had harbored even a shred of anger when Barkin fired his gun, he would already be dead.

Feeling the enormous Rune Hand that could easily crush him, Barkin’s legs were trembling violently.

Looking at the successfully conjured Rune Spiritual Hand, Tuck exhaled gently.

“Thank goodness for the concealment of the Magical Alchemy Hut, or else the time taken to conjure the Spiritual Hand would have been enough for me to die several times over.”

“Such powerful spells are definitely useless in an encounter battle, but in a well-timed, stable conflict, they are perfect weapons to slay the enemy.”

Tuck’s eyes narrowed as he began to control the Spiritual Hand.

“Rune Spiritual Hand”

The reason it’s called Spiritual Hand is because upon reaching a higher understanding of Soul Runes, one can enable the hand to perform “Spirit World Walk.”

Spirit World Walk is far more clever, and more adept at—ambushes!—than methods like stealth and sneaking.

“Spirit World Walk, Phase Transition!”

The moment the Spiritual Hand entered the Spirit Realm, Tuck executed a Phase Transition, moving the Spiritual Hand out of the Magic Cottage’s Spirit Realm Layer and into the outside Spirit Realm Layer.

Then, as the Spiritual Hand clenched downward fiercely, it left the Spirit Realm Layer.

The massive palm instantly enveloped the leader of the squad, a mighty Transcendent warrior of Level 36.

The Transcendent warrior, whose perception was inherently weak,

Just felt a chill breeze. The next moment, the large hand had him firmly grasped in its grip.

“Roar!”

The Transcendent warrior reacted quickly, letting out a “War Roar” as its intimidating momentum burst forth.

War Roar, an instantly cast powerful battle skill of Transcendent warriors, was capable of breaking through controls.

In the past, War Roar could break through many control techniques.

But this time, the roar failed to manifest.

A giant hand crushed the “War Roar” and grabbed the Transcendent warrior into its palm.

“Save me…” The Transcendent warrior, sensing imminent doom, bared his teeth and howled.

“Boom~~”

The muffled sound of flesh and bone shattering pierced through the curtain of rain.

It struck hard at the hearts of the other four team members.

In the midst of flashing firelight, the four shifted their gaze to their captain who had just shouted for help.

They saw the captain being squashed to death in the grip of the huge hand.

Blood and gore oozed out from the terrifying, cruel, and bloody gaps between the fingers of the giant hand.

The extreme cruelty and sensory shock of the incident overwhelmed the four with a sudden surge of fear to its utmost limit.

Fight back?

The level 36 captain, who barely held his own against the combined efforts of the four, was crushed in an instant in the enemy’s hand.

How could they confront the enemy without even catching sight of the foe?

No… that would be suicide!

“Run!”

Almost simultaneously, the four made the correct decision.

“Jump!”

The Scout suddenly lowered his body, gathering strength for the jump skill as he crouched down.

Then, he shot up into the air, attempting to leap over the rooftop to make his escape.

However, he had just soared two meters high

when the same terrifying purple-gold hand that crushed their captain appeared above his head and slammed down ferociously.

“No!”

The Scout let out a piercing scream.

“Boom!”

The Scout was ruthlessly smacked to the ground by the Spiritual Hand.

The next moment, the Spiritual Hand vanished once again.

On the ground, the Scout had been flattened nearly into a “two-dimensional” shape.

The water accumulated in the courtyard that had been pushed aside by the hand now quickly splashed back, casually submerging the “two-dimensional assassin.”

“I surrender!”

Watching the hand disappear again,

the slowest running team member, who had begun to assume the role of the “frontliner” Ranger,

instantly turned into a “smart ghost,” with hands raised above his head, loudly begging for mercy, willing to bend to avoid breaking.

Tuck, who originally wanted to squash the Ranger dead, heard the plea and stopped his hand from crushing him, appearing behind him instead.

The motion originally intended to finish the Ranger was halted.

By this time, the other two team members, a witch and a knight.

The Witch had activated a scroll to escape through transition.

And the Knight, even more straightforwardly, charged with a Knight’s rush, “clang” breaking through the Alchemy Shop’s door and vanished into the rain.

Even a faint voice of the Knight, drowned out by the rain, could be heard.

“Hold… firm… I’m… going… to… bring…”

“Reinforcements?”

Tuck’s eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a hint of a cruel and bloody smirk.

“I don’t plan on letting any of you go!”

“Defeating five in an instant is a bit tough, but if I chase them down slowly, not a single one will escape.”

With a step, Tuck activated Phase Walking and stepped outside.

“Sheep Transformation.”

The level 28 Ranger was transformed into a sheep by Tuck.

Immediately after, Tuck entered the Shadow State and applied “Micro Hurricane Spell” to himself before quickly pursuing the escapees.

After Tuck left,

the trembling Dwarf Alchemist Barkin squeezed his way out from the Magic Alchemy Hut’s doorframe.

He glanced at the giant hand that remained stationary.

Taking a deep breath, his gaze steadily moved over the third-rank warrior with deformed armor and the second-rank Scout who had been slapped to death.

And the Ranger, who now trembled even more than him, turned into a sheep.

“Truly… terrifying fellow,” Barkin commented from deep within.

“He’s only… level 19!”

Casting a glance at the broken doorframe, Barkin began cleaning up the bodies and debris.

It was no longer safe to stay here, so he decided to collect the valuable items first for that “Taniru,” the Human Wizard.

It was better to leave quickly.
