046 The longest five minutes

Despite the daylight, the power of magic caused a starry sky to converge above Lexie's head.

A flash of inspiration flashed on the Starry Sky Ring, and a huge creature whose body seemed to be composed of flowing star clusters appeared in the square.

The Star Spirit Golem, an artificial creature created by the Meteorite Iron Armor to contain the chaotic energy of the Star Sea. Powerful and unpredictable when attacked or attacked, it is a tricky enemy that is difficult to defend against and difficult to kill.

"Lothar, you are a mere one-ring mage, no matter how powerful you are, can you use one-ring spells to resist my star spirit puppet?" Rexi laughed, her handsome face almost contorted.

Lothar saw the Star Spirit Golem rapidly approaching him, a pair of fists unpredictable, exuding the aura of fire, ice, lightning, strong acid, and many other energies.

"Unfortunately, I don't need spells against this monster."

Lothar calmly took two steps back and threw a small metal statue out.

"Decline and Deathβ€”"

An elongated astral murmur rang out in the square.

A knight wearing full-body armor appears in front of the Star Spirit Golem. In its hand was a seemingly ordinary rusty long sword, as if it had gone through countless years, and at the slightest touch, it would break.

But there was a dim and deep aura on the long sword, which made people sad and made people cry bitterly.

Although it is now the spring when everything is reviving and prospering, for some reason, everyone in the circular square feels a bleak autumn. It's as if the whole world is gradually aging and dying.

Bang!

The two massive minions collided together, emitting a dull metallic scream.

The armored knight was hit in the face by a punch from the Star Spirit Puppet, and six or seven kinds of energy poured out from the Star Spirit Puppet's fist, instantly shattering the knight's entire body to pieces.

"A clown-like summoned creature would dare to confront my psychic puppet?" Lexie's eyes sparkled with victory in sight.

Virgil, who was sitting in the audience, also smiled imperceptibly.

This Star Spirit Puppet is his proud work, and although it is not the most perfect, there are not many mages who have the ability to make it. It's a waste to deal with a small one-ring mage.

But something unexpected happened.

The longsword in the knight's hand was not repelled by the Star Spirit Golem. It pulled out a rusty sword light in mid-air, piercing through the body of the Star Spirit Puppet.

"Woo......"

The Star Spirit Golem let out a howl of pain, and its entire body was gradually covered in patches of rust as if it had been infected with a virus. In the end, after a few futile struggles, it shattered and turned into countless yellow-brown dust.

Rexi was dumbfounded, and Virgil's charming smile turned into a cloud.

"Didn't I tell you, that long sword is the body."

Lothar looked at Lexie, regardless of whether the other party heard her words or not, and kept chanting incantations for a moment.

After killing the Mind Golem, the Sword of Decay continued to fly forward, slashing out with another blow.

Lexie didn't even have the space to cast a spell, so she could only turn around and hurriedly dodge.

But the Sword of Death still severed his left leg.

Rexi was proud of the Titan's prosthetic legs, which could mobilize the power of the earth, and turned into a pile of dust under the power of decay.

Puff -

Rexi loses her balance and falls to the ground.

The power of the Death Demon Sword was exhausted and disappeared into the square.

Lexie's swift defeat made Virgil's last patience disappear: "Lady Helena, you will preside over the duel later." ”

Rexi is not dead, but she is already defeated. Virgil didn't want to look any further, and only became depressed.

After saying that, he flew away from the circular square with a blue face.

At this point, Lothar's spell had been completed.

In front of him, ten vibrating sonic beads lined up in a wall, ready to go.

If the audience sees this scene, they will be amazed.

The Sonic Bead is an attack spell that moves in a straight line, and once the spell is cast, it will not stop, it will go straight to the target, and it will never stop like now.

The reason why Lothar was able to do something amazing in the eyes of others was because he had learned a very rare supermagic specialty from the treasure trove of truths - spell stasis.

This supermagic specialty allows the mage to spend five times his mana to cast a spell, so that the spell that has just been cast does not take effect immediately, but remains static for up to five seconds.

With this super magic specialty, a lot can be done.

For example, cast several spells quickly and then release them in one go.

However, this supermagic specialty is very rare, and the learning conditions are demanding, requiring three arcane knowledge skills: energy theory, matter research, and biological inspiration, all of which reach more than 20 points.

If Lothar hadn't read almost all the magic books in the entire Far Summer City and frantically increased various skill values, I am afraid that he would not have been able to master this super magic specialty immediately.

Lothar lifted the stagnation effect of the ten sonic beads in one fell swoop.

Ten sonic beads immediately rushed towards Rexi in a roar like a wild horse that had broken free.

Rexi lost a leg, and there was no way to dodge, not even cast a spell. In the blink of an eye, he was hit by seven sonic beads.

It is also a ring spell, and the destructive power of the sonic bead is greater than that of the magic missile, but it has no tracking effect, so it cannot guarantee a 100% hit.

But even this has caused irreversible damage to Rexi.

His flesh and blood were blurred by the energy of the explosion of the sound wave beads, and even his internal organs were injured in many places.

The rising genius of the Moonstaff family in the past is now rapidly stepping towards the path of death.

Lothar walked up to Lexie as a victor.

Rexi, whose eyes were already blurred with blood, looked at this young man who had been chased by himself not long ago and had no power to fight back, and couldn't accept this fact.

"No...... No way...... I'm Rexi Moon Staff, a genius mage with an infinite future! How could I be defeated by a little person like you! ”

The scenes that began with the duel of truth kept replaying in Rexie's mind.

The battle he had just experienced in less than five minutes was the longest and final period of his life.

"Still not convinced?" "Would you believe me if I told you I hadn't done my best?" ”

"I ...... No way! Lexie's face was distorted.

"Well, who told you to be so vulnerable that none of the things I have carefully crafted will come in handy in a duel, and now I will open your eyes." Lothar smiled and said to herself, "After all, I'm a good person. ”

He recited the activation command, and a fiery red ring on his hand immediately burst into light.

The gem on this ring is the blood carnelian that the mercenary Yves got from him after killing him.

At Lothar's command, ten metal sphere-shaped machines were summoned and surrounded Lexie.

"What is this?" Helena looked at the metal balls curiously.

This is a drone-type construction machine built by Lothar with the flame gel cluster as the core.

Lothar named it "Fire Bee".

Its outer shell is made of lightweight, strong volcanic iron, and it needs no other measures, relying only on the strength of the gel mass itself to fly.

Inside the drone, Lothar has set up a set of delicate and detailed magic arrays, which can shape the flame energy contained in the gel mass into energy fire arrows, which can be launched densely and quickly.

The power of each shot can reach about 0.75 energy level, which is weaker than the one-ring spell flame arrow.

However, the advantage is that there are so many of them, that a single firebee can fire thirty fire arrows at once. Lothar can now control up to ten firebees, which would be enough to form a barrage of death if a salvo were fired.

For most of the three days leading up to the duel, Lothar spent most of his time working with the craftsmen introduced by Count Stonek and Ivar, developing and crafting fire bees.

After tireless hard work, coupled with the help of the miniature gold and iron workshop, Lothar was able to create a magical drone unit in a short period of time. But alas, Rexi seems to be too vulnerable, and the Firebees don't come in handy in the duel.

"Okay, let's just take your heads." Lothar looked at her deadly new toy.

Lothar pointed at Lexie, who was lying on the ground and dying, and the ten fire bees immediately spewed out bundles of dense fire arrows, completely blasting the once high-flying genius mage of the Moon Scepter Family into a mess of cooked minced meat.

After dealing with Lexie, Lothar clapped her hands and stepped off the dueling table.

Helena shook her head: "Four minutes and fifty-two seconds, I lost." ”

She looked at the horrific corpses in the stands and said, "If this duel had been public, you would have been accused of 'no honor' and 'desecration of corpses' by now." ”

"Actually, I'm just testing the power of the firebees. It's fun and hassle-free, isn't it? ”

"I don't care, it's just that the cleaners are busy." Helena took out a roll of paper, "I am willing to lose the bet." You deserve it, with the contact details of the Dawn Explorers on it. Do you really want to join this organization instead of the White Tower of Truth? ”

"I've decided."

"Well, I'm not going to force it." Helena smiled and stretched out her fingertips and slid them gently across Lothar's chest, "Live well, little mage, and I'm going to ask you for news about the Abyss genealogy." ”

"Of course, no one values my own life more than I do." Lothar could feel the light touch of her fingertips through her mage's robes, "If you want news, I'll provide it at any timeβ€”as long as it's a reasonable price." ”

"Forget it now, I need to put my mind in order." Helena withdrew her hand and regained her haughty appearance.

This made Lothar have to sigh secretly, the speed at which a woman changes her face is really amazing.

The Lightning Lord handed over the title of the Barony of Oran and the dimensional bag filled with three thousand mage crystals to Lothar, and then left Far Summer City with Erin.

Defeat Lexie and get the bet on the Duel of Truth, and Lothar has no reason to stay.

Of course, he had one more thing to do before he could make contact with the Dawn Explorer.

Chop the grass and eradicate the roots.
