Chapter 402: Victory and Defeat
As before, Caterina continued to retreat. But this time, while retreating, Caterina made a move with her left hand, and a fiery red raven appeared on her shoulder.www.biquge.info
This particular raven is clearly Katarina's enchantment.
In fact, Caterina didn't want to summon her own demons if she could. Because unlike Kalian's Demon Raven Akatsuki, Katarina's Demon Raven "Nina" is not very strong in combat and is very vulnerable.
But after several encounters with Kalian, Katerina was helpless to find that if she was not willing to summon Nina, she might not be able to hold out for long.
So as a last resort, Caterina finally summoned her own demons.
After Nina the raven appeared, she quickly observed her surroundings. Upon seeing Karen wearing the armor of the Red Moon, the fiery red raven immediately realized that his master was in a rather bad situation.
So before Caterina could speak, Nina the raven began to chant aloud.
As Caterina's enchanter, Raven Nina can borrow Caterina's power to perform some low-to-mid magic. And at this moment, what it was singing was the fire-based three-ring magic fireball technique.
With Nina's help, Caterina, who kept retreating, immediately sang loudly. She believed that with Nina the raven, she should be able to hold on until the magic was completed.
Looking at the raven who appeared on Katarina's shoulder, and Katarina, who began to chant loudly, Karen who frowned immediately raised her left arm and shot a grenade at Katerina again.
The flame shield that surrounded Caterina once again blocked the grenade bombardment, but the flame shield completely dissipated as a result.
As soon as the flame shield dissipated, the aftermath of the grenade explosion immediately ruffled Nina's feathers and made her nervous.
Even so, Nina, a raven whose body trembled slightly, did not stop chanting, but trembled and completely completed the spell of the fireball technique.
With Nina the raven, a huge fireball quickly formed in front of it, and then flew towards the attacking Kalian.
After glancing at the fireball, Karen decisively shot a grenade at the fireball, trying to detonate it.
However, although the grenade shot by Karen successfully detonated the fireball, the explosion of this fireball set off a blast that was somewhat stronger than Karen imagined!
After being blown back by the unusually frantic blast and retreating some distance, Karen immediately looked at the fiery red raven standing on Katerina's shoulder with a serious face.
Does this raven have a considerable bonus to the power of fire magic......
Looking at the raven, who looked a little uneasy, Karen couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. If this raven really had such abilities, she could understand why Caterina would choose such a raven to be a demon.
Although the combat power may be a little weaker, but for Caterina, who specializes in fire, she is absolutely unwilling to exchange such a raven with a powerful magical beast such as a griffin to exchange it for her!
Under Kalian's gaze, Nina, a raven, who was already a little uneasy, suddenly became even more frightened. But after glancing at the master beside him, the weak raven calmed down.
It seems that he has a deep relationship with Katarina.
Kalian, who narrowed her eyes, flew towards Katerina again.
"Quack!"
Seeing that Karen was getting closer and closer to it, Raven Nina couldn't help but scream, and then spewed a series of small fireballs towards Karen.
These small fireballs are not magic, but Raven Nina's spell-like ability, which is much weaker than the magic missiles of the first ring, but there are quite a lot of them.
Faced with so many small fireballs, Kalian chose to resist hard after hesitating for a moment.
However, although the power of these small fireballs was not strong, the explosion of so many small fireballs superimposed still successfully blocked Karen for a short time.
After Karen rushed out of the small fireball's encirclement, Raven Nina glanced at Katerina again, and flew towards Karen without hesitation.
There is no doubt that this little raven is clearly trying to buy time for his master with his life!
Looking at Nina, a raven who flew in front of her and kept pecking at her helmet, Karen hesitated for a moment, then gently grabbed it with her right hand, and then threw it out with all her might.
The little raven, who had no power to resist, rolled in the air a few times before falling out of the ring in a daze. It seems that it will not be able to get up in a short time.
Karin, who had dealt with the little raven, continued to fly towards Katarina.
But with the little time that Raven Nina had gained, Caterina finally completed this most crucial magic after all her might!
Glaring at Karen, who was already close at hand, Katerina raised her staff with both hands and swung it vigorously at Karen. At the same time that the gem at the top of the staff released an unusually dazzling light, a large amount of red streamers quickly gathered in front of the staff, turning into a storm of flames!
Fire-based Seven Rings of Magic: Firestorm!
The roaring firestorm swirled and swirled, engulfing Karen almost instantly. Although Karen could still rely on the armor of the red moon to resist the scorching flames for the time being, she was in the midst of the firestorm and immediately moved away from Katerina as she moved with the firestorm.
Relieved, Caterina calmed down and immediately focused on controlling the firestorm. Caterina knew very well that this magic alone was not enough to completely defeat Karen, but if she controlled it well enough, she could completely rely on this flamestorm to consume a lot of Karen's physical strength and energy!
"Dio, Dio!"
Seeing Karen struggling in the flamestorm, Aisha, who was full of anxiety, hurriedly pulled Dio's sleeve and asked eagerly, "Sister Karen's situation looks bad!" Shall we help her? ”
"You don't need to be so nervous, Aisha."
Dio shook his head very calmly: "With the protection of Akatsuki, even if she loses here, Karen will only suffer a little minor injury at most, and her life will definitely not be in danger!" ”
"Is that so......"
Although Aisha believed that what Dio said would not be wrong, there was still a lingering look of worry on her little face: "Sister Karen! You're going to have to hold on! ”
Under the watchful eyes of Aisha, Waldman, and others, Karen trapped in the firestorm never seemed to be able to do anything to deal effectively. But in the shroud of the firestorm, Karin, who seems to be trying to hold on, is actually talking to Akatsuki.
"Akatsuki, how are you doing?"
Although she herself was drenched in sweat from the sudden rise in temperature, Karen was more concerned about the condition of her demons.
"It's not a big problem, the energy consumption is still in an acceptable range."
Akatsuki replied very calmly. It seems that the firestorm doesn't have much of an impact on her.
"That's good."
A relieved Karen, she asked, "So, when are we going to fight back?" ”
"Wait, wait for her magic and mental power to consume some more!"
Akatsuki replied, "By that time, even if she has noticed that something is wrong, when we fight back, she should have no other way than to use her life-saving hole cards." ”
In fact, at the moment when she was enveloped by the firestorm, Karen actually had a way to break away from the firestorm. But when she was about to act, she was persuaded by Akatsuki.
The reason Akatsuki used to persuade Karen was the last magic that remained on Katerina's flame robe to save her life.
After many inquiries by Karen, Karene and Akatsuki actually know Katarina to a considerable extent. It's like what Caterina knows about Kalen, in this title succession war, everyone basically can't hide all their hole cards completely.
Whether it is the first round of the simulation battle, or in the second round of the ring match and team match, all the successors will more or less reveal some of their hole cards, so these inheritors actually know each other about the same.
According to Karen's investigation, among the various magical equipment that Caterina usually uses, her favorite is this flame robe solidified with the five-ring spatial magic "teleportation technique".
With this flame robe, if Karen can't force Caterina to use that "teleportation technique" first, then Katerina will have a chance to turn the tables at any time!
"If you were forced to break free from the Firestorm by the rapid dash of your energy wings when you were just caught up in the Firestorm, then Miss Caterina could have used the Flashing and Acceleration techniques to surround you with the Firestorm again. When necessary, she can also rely on teleportation to hide on the other end of the ring, so she was actually invincible at that time. ”
After explaining a few words, Akatsuki said very seriously: "Therefore, we might as well take the initiative to withstand the attack of the flame storm like now, and then use the cover of the flame to wait for the opportunity to counterattack!" ”
"Is it a grenade to fight back? But the power of the grenade seems to be insufficient. ”
Karene asked, puzzled.
"No, not a grenade."
After hesitating for a moment, Akatsuki asked, "Master, can you temporarily hand over the control of this body to me?" ”
"Huh?"
Hearing Akatsuki's question, Kalian, who was stunned for a moment, immediately replied, "Yes!" ”
"Then, leave the rest of the battle to me!"
Akatsuki, who had received Karen's consent, nodded, and then raised her right hand.
As the red orb in his palm began to glow, the surrounding fire elements quickly converged on Kalian's hand, turning into a disc that emitted high temperature.
Thermal darts!
After confirming Katerina's current location, "Kalian" threw the thermal dart in her hand at Katarina.
"Whew!"
The disc-shaped thermal dart cut through the surrounding flamestorm, and flew straight towards the startled Caterina with sparkling sparks.
At this time, Caterina was trying to control the firestorm, so in the face of the attack of this thermal dart, she was caught off guard and had no time to cast other magic.
In desperation, Caterina had to try to move to dodge the thermal dart.
But just as she moved to the side with the acceleration technique on her body, the thermal darts in the air also changed direction and continued to fly towards her!
Is someone in control? Or is this thing itself an auto-tracking attack?
In her eagerness, Caterina didn't have time to think about the details of this thermal dart, and she had no choice but to activate the "teleportation technique" solidified on the flame robe as Akatsuki had planned.
With a flash of blue-white light, Caterina who had disappeared from the spot appeared at the other end of the ring in an instant, and the thermal dart that had lost its target was naturally empty.
However, at the same time as Caterina appeared, "Kalian" also flew straight out of the firestorm and flew towards Caterina's current position without hesitation.
At this moment, Caterina had already realized that she had fallen for "Kalian"'s calculations, but she was not willing to let this fail, if she gritted her teeth and raised the staff in her hand to "Kalian".
The gem at the top of the staff shone with an unusually dazzling light, and after a crunch, a wall of fire that was much stronger than the previous wall of fire technique rose from between Katerina and Karen.
After glancing at the wall of fire, "Kalian" stretched her right hand forward, and as the orb in her palm shone brightly, a fiery red barrier enveloped her.
Against this barrier, "Kalian" quickly rushed out of the wall of fire and flew in front of Katarina.
Until this point, Caterina still wanted to resist, but "Kalian", who grabbed her hand, only twisted slightly, and she was crushed to the ground.
"Surrender! Sister Katerina! ”
After subduing Katarina, Akatsuki returned control to Karen, who immediately persuaded Katarina, "You have already lost!" ”
After glaring at Karen hatefully, Caterina closed her eyes unwillingly, and a crystal tear slowly slipped down from the corner of her eye.
After a moment of silence, Karen whispered, "Don't worry, if I can become the head of the family, I will nominate you as an elder." That way, you can still make your own decisions about your life! ”
“…… Is this a giveaway from the victors? ”
After hearing this, Caterina suddenly opened her eyes. Her eyes were a little red, and after glaring at Kalian, she sighed: "Forget it, after all, you are the one who wins." ”
After looking at Karena for a long time, Caterina closed her eyes again and said softly: "You have to be careful of that guy Carlos, he is a real poisonous snake!" ”
After wiping the tears from Caterina's eyes, Karen nodded heavily.
