Chapter 17: Retire when you're old

As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of magic visible to the naked eye emanated from the old mage's body. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

I gazed at the powerful magic fluctuations of the old mage, and I couldn't help but sigh that although the old mage seemed to be very old, he was still old and strong.

No, no, now is not the time to think about this, I shook my head, and the old mage began to move.

As the magic radiated, I only felt my body being pulled over.

"What's the situation!" I tried to stop it, but it was in vain.

Since it is in vain, then...

My feet lifted off the ground, and I quickly approached with the force of the old mage's pull.

At this time, the old mage slowly said the name of the magic used.

"[Magic Vortex]!" The pages of the spellbook tumbled and spread out in front of the old mage.

Immediately, a fireball appeared in front of the old mage, and with a push of both hands, the fireball flew towards me.

It's hard to use strength in the air and it's hard to dodge, but I have my own way.

"[Telekinesis]" The fireball deviated from its original trajectory under the influence of my traction magic, and flew past my side.

Then, as I spun around in the air and faced the old mage again, a fireball appeared in my hand.

"Let's take it!" Like a spiral pill, with the gravitational pull of the old mage's [Magic Vortex], I pressed the fireball in my hand.

However, before I could make contact with the old mage, a pale blue ripple neutralized out the fireball in my hand.

[Magic Shield]!

(Drains mana automatically when attacked to negate attacks)

As I was stunned that the attack was ineffective, the old mage unleashed his magic again, and lightning loomed in his hands.

At this distance, you can't dodge!

"How can it be flashed!" The distance between the two sides is less than five meters, and with the dignity of being a mage, even if I can dodge it, I won't dodge! Don't show weakness!

Pushing his hands flat, a strong gust of wind suddenly interrupted the old mage's spell casting action.

【Gust of Wind】

But that's not all!

[Shockwave]!

Two almost instantaneous spells in a row, although they were not very powerful, successfully interrupted the old mage's attack, and the old mage was shocked into the air.

"[Feather Fall]." Unhurriedly casting a spell on himself, the old mage landed on the ground safely.

"Not bad, not bad." Pulling his beard, the old mage smiled, "Then, come again." ”

I nodded, didn't answer, and raised the staff in my hand behind me, accumulating my strength.

The old mage saw my movements, and raised his hand and an arc of lightning flew towards me.

"[Lightning Arrow]!" Serious voice, I know that the old mage is recognizing my strength.

However, what I was charging was not any attack magic, the speed of the arc was very fast, almost more than three times faster than the fireball technique, and the distance between me and the old mage was only a dozen meters before the arc caught up in the blink of an eye.

The magic in my hand was completed unconsciously, but nothing happened, and the arc was in front of my eyes in the blink of an eye.

I raised my staff smoothly and unleashed the magic stored in the staff.

I saw an arc of electricity that was thicker than the [Lightning Arrow] flying out from the tip of the staff, and in the crackling sound, the small arc of the [Lightning Arrow] was swallowed up.

Then, after devouring the tiny arc of electricity, the [lightning chain] went castrated, heading straight for the old mage.

This time, the old mage finally moved, gathering magic in his hands.

But······

"Huh?" The frozen feet at some point made it difficult for the old mage to move.

Ice Rune Medium Charge.

In desperation, the old mage prepared to resist hard, and his hands were facing the arc, and a burst of green light flashed.

I saw thorns rushing out from under the old mage's feet, instantly passing over the top of the old mage's head and surrounding the old mage.

"[Entwined Roots]!"

"Nani!" I watched in amazement as my attack struck the thorns, splitting the plant into char in an instant.

"That one, can attack magic still be used like this? That's fine! "If I'm not mistaken, the [Root Twist] magic is an attack type, but the old mage used it against himself, thus defending against my attack.

Originally, in my imagination, even if I couldn't hit the old mage, if I hit the magic shield that was almost like a turtle shell, then I could reduce the old mage's mana by half.

But now it seems that the old mage has saved himself well in this compromise way, and after smashing the thorns, the remaining little electric current aftermath hits the magic shield around the old mage, and it is not painful.

"It's really hard." There is no way to break the defense at all, even if the old mage who successfully reached the old mage just now, but it still has no effect, and the other party's response is excellent.

Just as I was thinking about how to attack, the old mage's hands were spread, and the magic book was tumbling wildly, and circles of pale yellow particles were converging.

"Little friend, it's the last blow." Maybe the old mage is old, and his stamina and energy are insufficient, and the old mage is ready to strike the final blow, but because the magic shield is still there, I can't interrupt the old mage's spell casting.

I used the impact to flip the old mage into the air, so I didn't trigger the magic shield, but now I'm a little far away from the old mage, and I can't catch up in time.

With that in mind, I began to prepare my defenses.

[Agility]! [Body Protection Kamikaze]!

Two of the defensive magic I often used were put on my body, and I felt the lightness of my body, and I began to run, when the old mage's voice came to my ears.

"The last blow! [Ascension]! ”

···

The ground shook, and Akai, who was watching the battle, couldn't help but jump off the big rock where he had been sitting and squatted on the ground to prevent him from falling.

Instead, I rolled around on the ground with a sudden unsteady center of gravity.

And where I rolled, the next second, a spike of dirt and stones burst out of the earth.

"I'm gone, isn't [Ascending Technique] life magic? Can anyone tell me that the magic attack power for Mao's life is so strong?! "I didn't have time to continue complaining, I sped up, and the thorns behind me chased very closely.

"Hehe, little friend, the power of magic is infinite, it just depends on how you use it." The old mage who used the [Ascending Technique] with a smile looked at me who was dodging in embarrassment and said.

Looks like I'm still far behind...

But now is not the time to talk about this, the things in the back are too dangerous!

The earth still trembled.

"Qi, since the ground is not safe! 【Insect Swarming】! With my shout, a swarm of insects was close to me, but they were not as beautiful during the day as they were at night.

"Quick, fly with me!" I hurriedly gave orders to the group of insects, only to see one by one the insects attached to my body, grabbed my clothes, and then carried me off the ground and floated five meters above the ground in my constant cries of begging.

Eventually, the earthquake subsided, and after the time of the [Insect Swarming] was gone, I fell from a height of five meters, rolled on the ground, shook my head, and stood up.

"Hehe, Xiaoyou is in a hurry." The old mage came to me.

"Huh, my predecessors are really amazing, it seems that I still have a lot to learn." From the very beginning, I was passively beaten, and even if I counterattacked halfway, I couldn't break through the defense.

"Let's get here today, Lao Yu also has a general understanding of Xiaoyou's strength, come here tomorrow, I believe Xiaoyou will not refuse some necessary spells."

There is something to learn, how can you refuse, I quickly nodded and expressed my gratitude.

In this way, after sending the old master back, Akai and I also returned to the village chief's temporary residence for us to rest, and I want to sort out today's harvest well.

In the watchtower.

"Eh, my old bones are dying." The old mage looked at the little mana that was left in him, and let out such an exclamation.

"What a great little fellow, maybe it would be nice to give him that thing." The old mage muttered to himself and walked towards the desk.

Click!

"Eh! Waist! Then there was a sound of healing.
