Chapter 5
The geist targeted his nearest opponent first, who was lying on the bush-covered ground, a few ants crawling across his face, unable to make the trained killer even blink an eye.
- If they hadn't met a mage like Rhaegar wouldn't have escaped their assassination.
Rhaegar concentrated, the power of consciousness passing through her body and radiating into the space around her, capturing the ubiquitous magical energy, and under strong restraints, these active little things were quickly tamed and arranged in a certain order, and the next, with a command, these energies rushed towards the enemy like an army receiving orders.
When the Frost Missile struck his body and froze it firmly with the ground around him, the killer could not understand how the other party had discovered him, and with this confusion, he was frozen into an ice sculpture in the shape of a human.
"Ten. Rhaegar counted the number of remaining opponents, and after a series of battles, most of the original twenty-nine killers had been lost, but none of them escaped, but for Rhaegar to do so, this gave him the opportunity to wipe out all his opponents. With a thought, a burst shot landed accurately on a two-person tree dozens of meters away, and almost at the same time as the magic was issued, Rhaegar had already sped into the grass next to him, and the two crossbow arrows then flew over where he had been.
The blast bomb failed to blast the giant tree to pieces, and in fact, the purpose of the deliberately suppressed magic was not that, and the violent impact of the explosion caused the giant tree to collapse to one side, and the two killers lurking in the direction of its fall were immediately smashed underneath.
"Eight. Rhaegar made a few quick gestures, then disappeared from the spot, and the next moment, he appeared in another direction dozens of meters away.
Short range movement, this spell was one of the trophies that Rhaegar got from the mage he had killed, almost at the same time as he appeared, he sent out another spell that had already been prepared, a fireball that was at least twice as large as the one he had just used fell into the grass more than twenty meters in front of him, the heat quickly evaporated the water in the weeds, causing it to burn, and a figure wrapped in flames rushed out of the grass with a miserable scream, staggered a few steps forward, and then lay on the ground, never moving again.
"Seven. Rhaegar disappeared again, and then appeared nearly a hundred meters away—the maximum distance he could travel in a short distance—and then, he reached out and grabbed the neck of the killer who was so shocked by his sudden appearance that he was holding up his upper body, and twisted it slightly.
The arm that could lift thousands of kilograms of boulders exploded with amazing power in an instant, and the killer couldn't understand how this mage could break his neck with his bare hands so easily.
"There are six more. Rhaegar picked up the killer's crossbow arrows that had fallen to the ground, there were still two left on the crossbow machine that could fire three poisonous crossbows, and the light that only predators would appear when hunting flickered in his eyes, and the next moment, he grabbed the dead killer's body and threw it out.
Six poisonous crossbows struck the corpse from different angles at almost the same time, and the remnants of the killers, although they still maintained good skills, had already panicked the successive killings of their companions, and they would never mistake their companion's corpse for their own assassination target in normal times.
Before the killers could return to their hiding places, Rhaegar's body had already scurried out like a leopard, and before they could land in the bushes, two crossbow arrows had already flown off the string and landed precisely on the two slower-moving killers, the poison that could kill a giant elephant took their lives in an instant.
Rhaegar had never thought of using a crossbow bolt, either as a geist or as a mage, but when he came up close and personal with such a murderous weapon, a memory suddenly broke into his consciousness, and then, a strong instinct drove him to pick up the crossbow arrow and do it.
After the initial panic and confusion, Rhaegar had become accustomed to the memories that appeared in his mind from time to time, and in fact, these memories did not cause him any harm, on the contrary, each memory appeared to allow him to learn something from them, making him a little stronger than before.
"Four. Rhaegar could feel that two of the killers had begun to retreat, crawling like snakes through the grass and bushes without making a sound, not even a single leaf swaying, and at the same time, the other two killers suddenly stood up from their hiding place, and after firing the remaining crossbow arrows at the place where Rhaegar had last appeared, they drew their short swords and rushed forward.
A grim smile appeared on the corner of Rhaeggar's mouth—for some reason, as his memory returned, he grew more and more fond of it when he was killing—and stood up from the bushes, looking at the two almost crazy killers, and with a slight wave of his right hand, two fireballs flew out, turning his opponent into two flaming humanoid torches.
"Now," Rhaegar whispered, looking in the direction of the last two killers fleeing, "let's see who arranged this hunt for me." ”
However, his plan to follow the other party to find the mastermind behind it fell through, and the two killers escaped less than a hundred meters, and two flaming arrows appeared out of thin air, turning them to ashes in a matter of seconds.
This result made Rhaegar frown, if the memory from the mage is not wrong, this spell should belong to the fifth-order magic, that is, a mage who is at least the fifth order, and the mage with an unknown attitude is near him, which is obviously not good news for a wandering soul who can only use third-order spells.
Rhaegar concentrated, and the power of consciousness located in the sea of souls was adjusted to the optimal state in an instant, and with just one thought, these powers would erupt, and then capture the surrounding magical energy and form a spell in the shortest possible time. At the same time, the geist moved to the side of a tall tree in an almost imperceptible motion, and with a single dodge, he could hide behind the large tree that was large enough for three people to hug, which was enough for him to fend off at least the first round of spell attacks, and after that, he could fight back, or look for an opportunity to escape, or return to the geist form again.
However, his preparations didn't come in handy in the end—several figures stepped out of the surrounding woods as he approached the giant tree, yellow robes and markings on their robes indicating that they were from the same group of mages, and the badges on their bodies indicated that the lowest of these people was also a fifth-order mage.
"Long time no see, dear Rhaeggar. A middle-aged mage smiled and said, "I'm so glad to see you again." ”
