CHAPTER XXI

"Your Excellency Mage, in fact, I don't have any malicious intent, but I just have some questions I want to ask clearly. ”

Feng Yinqiu spread out his hands, showed a very relaxed smile, and walked towards the two mages unhurriedly, and his tone of voice was also very indifferent: "Of course, it doesn't matter if the two of you want to have a discussion." I'm very interested in your Arcane achievements in the continent, and I have a lot of tools to use to show me. ”

"What does this guy mean by that arrogant look, is he trying to provoke us on purpose?"

"As disgusting as this stinky fart may look like, I have to warn you again, this guy called the wind is very, very difficult to deal with. Aside from the force field system, try not to attack him directly with arcane arts...... How many more spells can you use?"

β€œ...... About 200 nodes. What about you. ”

"About one hundred and fifty. ”

"Are there any spare means and props other than the final sequence? I don't have any, I didn't expect these Westerners to be so difficult to deal with. I thought the Charge Golem would be able to take out all the opponents, so are we going to retreat now?"

β€œ...... I also have a reel to help me drag it a bit. ”

Compared with the ease of Feng Yinqiu, Stephanie and Pincks were full of solemnity and gloom, and the extreme unfavorability of the situation made the two originally discordant colleagues no longer have the mind to argue. On the other side, the Westerner named Liu actually rushed back to the war golem that was chasing and killing Gawain, and after he joined the whirlwind of blades, he not only saved the precarious Gawain, but also seemed to quickly form a stalemate with the golem. The advantage that the two of them have the best hope to gain now is to deal with the pretentious guy in front of them as soon as possible, and turn around and join forces with the golem.

There is not much spiritual power left, and a lot of energy was consumed when dealing with that Liu just now. No matter how clever the mage is, no matter how powerful the spiritual power is, it is impossible to touch the magic net to release spells without restrictions, and the energy left between the two of them is not even a small half, at most it is two or three three-four ring arcane arts, and they are still facing enemies who cannot be dealt with direct directional spells, and they can only use the means to press the bottom of the box.

"Come, take a closer look, and get a good look at the magical power of the great arcane civilization, which will definitely be an eye-opener for you barbarians. Pinkers hooked his fingers in an arrogant gesture, and then began to chant the incantation, waving his gestures. Luckily, this seems to be a very arrogant opponent, and if he seizes the opportunity to attack him like the Guardian Hand Paladin before him, how can he cast spells with such a swagger.

Sure enough, the wind stood still and did not come any closer, but watched Pinkis's chanting and gesturing with interest.

As the essence of casting arcane arts, spells and gestures are not necessary, and it is only the human spirit that can communicate the magic web and trigger the resonance of the elements. But in fact, as a very important aid, spells and gestures are very important, making it easier for the caster to concentrate and calculate spell formulas, just as many people have to read aloud or use pen and paper to help them when they are counting. Each syllable and gesture has been painstakingly researched by the Age of Empires Academy to minimize the possibility of error and the difficulty of casting spells.

Taking advantage of this great opportunity, Pinkers of course made sure that all his remaining mental perfection was perfectly transformed into a spell, and he believed that the intricate gestures and syllables would definitely make the arrogant Westerner scratch his head.

The spiritual power equivalent to activating the lowest level of the zero ring trick one hundred and seventy-three times touched the magic net of the fourth layer step by step, and meticulously completed the spell model in Pinx's memory, and he felt a sense of prostration-like powerlessness surging up, and at the same time, he could also sense that the magic net was attracting all kinds of energies and laws to converge and evolve into the spell he needed.

Not far in front of him, a dark red fire suddenly appeared in the air, and the smell of sulfur overflowed, and then the fire and sulfur breath solidified together and quickly deformed, and three seconds later, a monster covered in dark red, like an ant magnified hundreds of times, appeared.

It's actually a purgatory ant ant. Pinkers' eyes lit up. There weren't many times when this four-ring arcane 'summoning a lower-level demon' could summon such a tricky monster, and he might not be able to encounter it once in a hundred times, but he was lucky this time. The Purgatory Ant is definitely one of the few lower-level demons closest to the mid-rank demons, and the degree of difficulty is definitely second to none. What's more, this demon is very easy to manipulate.

"Huh, this is..."Feng Yinqiu's eyes also lit up. Such a means of creating void creatures is extremely rare in the rivers and lakes of Shenzhou, whether it is the condensed Yin Soul Ghost Body of the Demon Gate or the Celestial Master Sect's Forceful Divine General, it is just an illusory thing formed by the condensation of mana, but this one in front of him is a living monster. It was shaped like a huge ant, but its body was covered with fine scales and spikes that represented danger, and the liquid dripping from the hideous and abnormal mouthparts fell to the ground and immediately corroded into small pits, emitting an unpleasant sour smell, and the two feet in front of it also held two sword-like weapons. Feng Yinqiu could even smell the thick sulfur-like stench emanating from this monster, and felt that it was not a weak breath, no matter what, this was a real living monster in front of him.

"What's this thing called?" asked Feng Yinqiu.

"Purgatory Soldier Ant, demon of the lower planes, take a good lesson. Pinkers sneered, and with his spirit stimulated the imprint left by the spell, and the Purgatory Ant rushed out with a howl. In contrast to the irascible and out-of-control nature that often characterizes other infernal creatures, this hierarchical social species, which resembles a real ant, has a much stronger instinct for obedience.

The body of this low-level demon was about the size of a small horse, and its speed was not slower than that of a horse, or even faster, and with six feet on the ground, it scurried in front of Feng Yinqiu, and two strangely and rough-shaped weapons slashed at him. Feng Yinqiu didn't even dodge, but grabbed the two weapons with both hands.

This weapon was so rough that it was like a child casually kneading it out of mud, only the upper half was barely sharp, and the lower half was simply irregular cylindrical, so Feng Yinqiu easily caught it, but the huge impact immediately made him take a step back, and then he stepped down and stood firm.

This power is definitely greater than two or three bison, and Feng Yinqiu is also secretly surprised. Then he suddenly saw the even more hideous mouth on the hideous head that was close at hand, and quickly and instinctively turned his head, and a sour and hot sensation shot past his ears, and splattered onto a pile of broken wall masonry behind him, instantly melting the pile of sour dark red lava.

At this time, even Feng Yinqiu couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, he couldn't imagine that this monster was so weird and fierce, if this mouthful of lava acid didn't dodge, even he would not feel good, and if he was unlucky, he would only be embarrassed to escape for his life. Then he immediately felt a burning pain in his palm, and quickly let go of his hand and took a big step back, and then looked at his palms, the skin of the palm holding the weapon had been completely corroded,

There was a muffled sound, and a force field missile from the side hit Feng Yinqiu's temple, making him slightly dizzy again, and it turned out that Pinglisi in the back saw the opportunity and used a ring of spells from this force field system to sneak attack. I don't know if he used any special tricks, but he actually made the force field missile fly in a curve in mid-air and fly past the Purgatory Soldier Ant and hit it from the side, but only this one hit, and the other two smashed into the remnant wall next to it, causing dust to fly.

Seeing that the force field missile that could smash ordinary people's brains only made this young Westerner tilt his head, Pinkers was also quite helpless in his heart. The four-ring spell that summoned the lower-level demon just now had basically squeezed his spirit to the ground, except for the last guaranteed spiritual power that had to be left to execute the 'final sequence', and now he could only use this simplest, generally speaking, and most practical one-ring spell to sneak attack. It's just a pity that the only useable and generally the most practical means that Stephanie told me didn't have any effect, and as for the other ring spells, it was basically impossible to have any effect.

As for the surprise, he was already a little numb. He was very sure that from today onwards, he would position these high-level Western warriors at the level of extremely difficult monsters, and it seemed that none of them used fighting energy, but they were basically completely immune to arcane damage, and they could fight hand-to-hand with the war golem, and they could compete head-on with the Purgatory Soldier Ants, and even the weapons of the Purgatory Soldiers that were solidified with their own formic acid mixed with lava element powder could only burn off a layer of skin...... There are really few monsters that can do this on the mainland.

Then something even more surprising happened to him, only to see the Westerner stretch out his hand, and a series of force field missiles flew out of his palm, densely hitting the body of the Purgatory Soldier Ant, causing the purgatory creature to take several steps back in the strange scream.

'Lesser Missile Storm'?How could this Westerner use arcane arts?Or is it four-ring arcane?Pink rubbed his eyes, almost thinking he was hallucinating. Then he immediately discovered that it was not a secondary missile storm, but a series of one-ring arcane force field missiles, but they were used extremely quickly, and it looked like a four-ring arcane that could fly thirty missiles in an instant.

But this discovery only made Pinkers even more incredible. Every time a mage comes into contact with the magic net, there is a gap between releasing spells, whether it is his own spiritual relaxation or the flexible flow of the magic net, it is inevitable. Although the more powerful the mage, the shorter the time for the spirit to relax, the more he can contact the magic net again in the shortest time, and the difficulty of the time is also related to the level of the spell, but there is also a limit. For example, a junior mage who has just come into contact with a ring of magic nets will ease up after releasing a force field missile technique, while elite mages like him and Stephanie who have been trained as orthodox mages will only take three seconds at most, and those high-level mages who stay in front of the wall of laws will only take about two seconds, and as for those archmages who have crossed that threshold, some people may compress this to a second or even half a second.

But the interval between the Westerner's releases was absolutely within half a second, and it was like throwing a ring of spells outward at the same speed as the blink of an eye.

Whir-hoo, a series of force field missiles flew head-on, waking Pinks out of his stunned state, and he hurriedly rolled on the spot and narrowly dodged. It turned out that Feng Yinqiu, who forcibly repelled the purgatory soldier ants, took advantage of the gap to give him a string. Relying on this tactical move that he had forgotten for an unknown number of years, he rolled back behind the Purgatory Soldier Ant, and Pinkers rolled over and stood up on the ground with a dirty face, and for the first time in his life, he was grateful to the academy's actual combat instructor who had cursed for an unknown number of times.

Luckily, the Westerner doesn't seem to be able to use the high-end technique of curve shooting. Looking through the gap between the Infernal Soldier's limbs, Pinkers saw that the Westerner did not take advantage of the victory, but froze, and then cast his gaze behind him.

There was no need to guess, Pinks immediately felt it, and a strong elemental aura appeared behind him along with the vibration of the magic net. It was Stephanie using her last resort to press the bottom of the box. And with this level of aura and vibration, Pinkers didn't need to look at it to know what she was usingβ€”it was a seven-ring scroll that 'summoned earth elemental elders'

It's really willing, it looks like this chick is really desperate, no wonder I want to help him delay it. Pinkers also felt a lot of emotion in his heart. Although their status and resources far exceed those of ordinary high-level mages, scrolls above the seven rings are really not easy to obtain, and many times they can only be used as a means to press the bottom of the box, after all, in this era when the glory of the empire is long gone and the arcane civilization is withering, there are only a handful of archmages who can make legal arcane scrolls.

The activation of general spell items is very convenient, and the maker will leave a node on it, and only need to stimulate it with the spiritual power of a zero-ring trick, and the circuit that has already been set up will automatically connect to the magic net to transmit energy. But for the big spells above the seven rings, it is not so simple, it involves directly interfering with the operation of the laws of the world, even a simple startup node is no less than a complex process of three or four rings of arcane, of course, some extremely rare and precious spell items will be attached to the additional spell that simplifies this startup node again, but generally speaking, there will be no one-time scrolls.

That's why Stephanie used this scroll to take cover. It's just that what is he going to use to cover now, what if that Westerner sprays missiles in that direction? Do you want to use your body to help her resist the dense force field missiles like raindrops? In a hurry, Pinkers had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he rushed to the side, and grabbed Mu Qinyi, who was already unconscious, in his hand.

"Don't move! or I'll smash this Western woman's head!" Pinkers pulled Mu Qinyi in front of him, one hand to her head, and shouted at Feng Yinqiu.

It was an unimaginable stupid mistake to forget that there was a hostage here! Pinkers was glad that he had been able to wake up in time after he was ashamed. It seems that it has been the smooth sailing of the work, and the pride in the identity of the mage, so that he will not subconsciously think about this method. Fortunately, it was not too late, and there was no need for this Westerner to give in, just to make him hesitate and make sure that the scroll in Stephanie's hand could be completed.

But Feng Yinqiu just glanced at him, ignoring him at all, and turned around and rushed towards Stephanie.

What? Isn't this Western female mage his companion? Is he not at all concerned or is he afraid to do it? He didn't release the force field missile at Stephanie, is he still scrupling? Several thoughts flashed through Pinx's mind in a hurry, but there was really no way to stop it.

Fortunately, at this time, the purgatory soldier ants that rushed up again fully embodied the value of summoned creatures, and the crude weapon containing formic acid slashed indiscriminately, just stopping Feng Yinqiu, and he didn't dare to resist with his body against the attack of this strange monster with that dangerous weapon.

The body of the Purgatory Soldier Ant was full of shallow depressions, and scarlet body fluids were oozing out in some places, and the round of force field missiles just now could be seen as dozens of big men slamming with heavy hammers, and it was impossible to be unscathed. But this infernal creature still looks like a dragon spirit tiger fierce and ferocious, wielding two formic acid weapons like a whirlwind in front of Feng Yinqiu.

It's good luck to be able to summon this thing. Seeing that Feng Yinqiu was stopped, Pinx also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. This insect-like infernal creature not only has strength and agility, but also has extremely high defense and vitality, and is even more meticulous in executing orders, with almost no obvious weaknesses, and can be said to be one of the best summons. The Westerner in front of him was unarmed and couldn't even parry, and it seemed that it was impossible to break through in a short period of time.

The restless aura of the earth element behind him became stronger and stronger. Pinks glanced back to see that Stephanie was holding an unfolded scroll in her hand and slowly lowering it downward, and the earth-elemental aura as thick as a mountain and as boundless as a sea was overflowing from that scroll, and even the ground below the scroll seemed to be attracted by this aura and was slowly rising upwards.

The Elemental Realms have been connected, and the spell has reached its final stages. Pinkers was relieved as well. The elder-level elements with their own consciousness are not comparable to those ordinary elements, and some of them may be slow, but with the blessing of similar spells, they are no worse than the blade golem in terms of pure combat effectiveness, and they are definitely a decisive existence in this scene.

A strange hiss came, and Pinks turned his head, just in time to see the Purgatory Soldier Ant's feet holding two formic acid weapons fall to the ground, and at the same time, the two tentacles on his head flew high, and a flashing colorful lightsaber in Feng Yinqiu's hand flashed away, leaving the hissing Purgatory Ant and turned and rushed towards Stephanie.

"How could it be a secondary rainbow sword?" Pinkers thought his jaw might have dropped to the ground. He could see clearly what the Westerner had in his hand just now, it was the five-ring spell that had been excavated from the imperial ruins by the R&D department in the past and restored. Although that spell was later spread, there were very few mages who could learn it, and now it came out of the hands of this Westerner who had only been on the mainland for a few days. Only this kind of five-ring arcane art, which is infinitely thick and can theoretically cut even pure gold, can so easily cut the protection of the Purgatory Soldier Ant in two.

How can I stop it? Is there any way to stop it? Seeing the wind whispering towards Stephanie, Pinkers could only stand dumbfounded. At the time when he was stunned, Feng Yinqiu also rushed in front of Stephanie, reached out and grabbed the scroll she was holding in her hand, as if he wanted to take it by force.

But at the very moment when his hand touched the scroll, his man was suddenly stunned, as if he had lost his mind in an instant.

In the next moment, the scroll finally fell to the bulging ground, all the spell loops and law weaving had been completely completed, the scroll turned into ashes, and a massive amount of earth elements converged on the ground, rising and forming rapidly. A clay doll more than five meters tall rose from the ground, rolling Feng Yinqiu, who was still stunned in place, to the side.

"It worked!" Pinkers clapped his palms, excited. Next to the clay doll, a tired Stephanie also showed a relieved smile.

With a loud bang, a huge blade more than two meters long flew in a circle, falling not far away, almost plunging the entire blade into the ground.
