Chapter 151: Provocation from the Curse Master

Locke looked at the patient on the bed and asked Aisi and Angelo, “What do you think?”

Angelo shook his head.

Aisi was also stunned and shook her head slightly, indicating that she was helpless.

Angelo asked Locke, “Can’t we solve it like last time?”

Locke pointed at the complicated situation on the bed and smiled bitterly. “Do you think it’s okay?”

“The electric bamboo on his body has been tightly connected to his flesh and has replaced his arm.”

A strange scene appeared on the hospital bed. A first-class wizard apprentice was lying on the bed, barely breathing. At the same time, his right hand was entangled by several twisted bamboo joints. Those bamboo joints were like a giant claw clasping his right shoulder and fused with the flesh and blood of his right arm.

Ai Xi added carefully, “This isn’t just a simple fusion with his right arm. The root of the electric bamboo is also connected to his heart. If you want to forcibly replace the magic plant, you’ll have to kill him.”

Anger flashed in Angel’s eyes, and he said in a low voice, “This is a provocation against us. I don’t know how our last treatment process got out. She must have read the information about our treatment method, so she made some modifications to her curse.”

Locke walked over and looked down at the electric bamboo. There was a string of names left on it by the enchanter’s inscription knife: Severin Sagamore.

It’s her again.

Locke raised his brow. “This is giving us a hard time.”

“Not only can I not forcibly replace the magic plant, I can’t use the magic frequency cultivation method to weaken this magic plant. Because now this magic plant is completely integrated with him.”

Locke looked at the only outsider in the isolation room.

That is, the first-class wizard apprentice of Angron’s Special Studio, his junior Carrie Ackerman.

Carrie Akerman was dressed pretty, with a ponytail and a carefully trimmed white wizard robe. She had a slim and graceful figure, with a charming look between her eyebrows and eyes. She even had exquisite makeup on her face, with red lips and eyeliner.

When Carrie Ackerman heard that a special patient had been sent to their small team, she followed over without saying a word.

Obviously, she wanted to see if Angron’s studio on her side could easily solve the problem. If it could, she could accumulate some performance points for both Angron and herself.

She and Angron came to the treatment center not to work properly, but to earn performance points, get the title of excellent/outstanding healer, and make Angron the rising star of potions this year.

Locke looked at Carrie Ackerman who came over to ask for information, “What’s the matter, Senior Ackerman, do you have a way to treat it? Otherwise, I will give this patient to your studio.”

Aisi and Angel’s eyes suddenly lit up.

Patients with complicated conditions are like a hot potato. If the problem cannot be solved, it will not only lower their evaluation scores.

The most realistic thing is that it will cause them to waste a lot of medicine and they may even lose money.

If this hot potato can be pushed away, it is better to do so.

Carrie Ackerman took a half step back, holding the information in her hand, raised her eyebrows, and said, “I just came to take a look.”

“We at Angron Studios solve the most complex problems.”

After saying this, Carrie Ackerman held her head high and quickly fled the scene.

Angel and Aisi rolled their eyes.

Ai Xi complained, “She runs away so quickly. When she sees a difficult problem, she just leaves. If it can be easily solved, believe it or not, the patient will be snatched away by their studio.”

Locke shook his head slightly, “Let’s focus on this patient. I don’t have any good solutions at the moment.”

As he spoke, Locke took out a bottle of Lesser Emerald Potion. “I’ll try to break the curse with the Lesser Emerald Potion.”

Angelo and Aisi’s eyes lit up.

Aisi said, “Locke, you’ve finally learned how to make the Lesser Emerald Potion. The Emerald Potion is the most versatile curse-breaking potion. I’m so envious of your mentor for giving you a simplified version of the Lesser Emerald Potion that even a first-class wizard apprentice can make.”

“Try it now, it might help. This is a simplified version of the Emerald Potion.”

“If we can cure this man, I can see how unhappy that arrogant Carrie Ackerman will be!”

“Locke, you’re growing so fast! You’ve even mastered the Lesser Emerald Potion.” Angelo also held high hopes for this. “Then I’ll prepare an infusion of Bear Spirit Bile Potion. This will increase his surface magic resistance. With this combination, perhaps he can use his own [Magic Suppression Structure] to suppress the demonic plants parasitic on his flesh.”

The three of them began to work together.

Half an hour later, Locke injected the secondary emerald green potion into the man. Fortunately, the man had signed a loan contract before he fell into a coma, so he had no shortage of money for treatment.

They can give him good medicine.

After feeding him the secondary emerald green potion, the wizard apprentice’s face suddenly became more red, and the curse energy in his body was continuously washed away.

The Emerald Green Potion is the most versatile version of the curse-breaking potion, and is also a potion that Witch Sophia often brews. It is a simplified version of the Lesser Emerald Green Potion, and of course its effect is amazing. It is naturally not a problem to remove the curse of this degree left on this person.

Five minutes later, the man’s face turned completely rosy, and the curse energy in his body was almost completely cleared.

But the three of them still looked solemn.

Locke frowned, “No.”

“The curse on him is not difficult to resolve. It’s just a small problem. It’s just that the other party cleverly used the curse to mutate the demonic plant.”

“It’s impossible for a mutated demonic plant to return to its original state.”

“This mutated demonic plant is constantly sending him new cursed energy. In other words, if the fundamental problem isn’t resolved, he’ll have to keep taking the Lesser Emerald Potion.”

“Every once in a while, we need to cleanse the cursed energy from his body.”

“The key is, does he have the money? Besides, I’m the only one who can refine the Lesser Emerald Potion, and I can’t possibly serve him personally.”

Locke said, “We may not be able to solve this problem for the time being. Let’s hand this patient over to all the potion master assistants on the second floor and brainstorm together.”

Angelo shook his head slightly. “If they had the ability to solve this problem, they wouldn’t have pushed it onto us. The enemy is truly cunning, using the malignant mutation of the demonic plant to create such a difficult situation.”

“Severin Sagamore…”

“This person is terrifying! If I met her in the wild, I wouldn’t be a match for her.” Angelo’s voice was already tinged with fear. “Even if we solve this problem, she’ll come up with something even more difficult. What then?”

Locke glanced at Angelo, interrupted him, and reminded him: “Angelo, calm down.”

Angelo reacted. He didn’t look at the strange looks given to him by the second-class wizard apprentice assistants around him. Instead, he coughed, nodded slightly to Locke, and said softly, “Thank you, Locke.”

“I was really too impatient just now.”

“As a potion master’s assistant, it is really shameful to admit defeat to a curse master like this.”

Locke nodded slightly, then looked at the patient on the bed, lost in thought. ‘Restoring a mutated demonic plant to its original state is truly beyond the capabilities of an ordinary breeder.’

“The other party anticipated this, and therefore used this mechanism to create such a complex curse. But thinking about it the other way around, the fundamental reason why the magic plant was able to backfire on the wizard was that the wizard’s plant magic formula was unbalanced, and then his own magic resistance was insufficient to resist the magic backlash, so the plant magic backlash occurred.”

“So, I need to break free from my fixed mindset. The right approach isn’t to deal with things after they happen. Instead, I need to prevent them beforehand. If I can instantly increase my magic resistance for a short period of time, I can prevent the demonic plant from successfully devouring its owner.”

“This way, no matter how sophisticated or advanced Severin Sagamore’s magical plant curse is, it can be fundamentally resolved from the principle point of view. This will directly shatter the curse masters’ confidence in this type of curse and prevent them from further research.”

‘Otherwise, it will go on forever.’

Locke thought of the Bear Spirit Bile Potion, but the current Bear Spirit Bile Potion was far from effective enough.

Locke said to Aisi and Angelo, “Let’s keep him alive first.”

“At least keep him alive until we find a solution to the problem.”

Locke looked at the patient and already had some ideas.

This magical plant curse is of little use to me as a breeder. I know too much about various magical plants and have various ways to prevent the backlash of this plant magic.

The reason why he couldn’t solve it for the time being was because this time the other party optimized the magic plant curse after observing his last solution.

This is like a duel between two masters. The opponent has already made two moves, while you have only made one, so you need some time to think about how to solve this problem.

Of course, the other party’s curse magic has been studied very deeply, which is also one of the reasons.

Locke pondered, “Adding some anti-curse magic properties to the magic plant is also a way to solve the problem in advance. I remember that among the Lijin secret language, there is a sale of curse-breaking lilies.”

“The Curse-Removing Lily has the ability to defend against curses.”

“However, that magical plant is a kind of anti-curse magical plant that is used to protect against common curses targeting wizards. Since magical plant curses have never appeared before, or rather, the wizards in Lilith’s hut have never faced them, this area is still a blank slate.”
