Chapter 17: Fighting the Snow and Mist

"Unexpectedly, he has already cultivated the 'realm'. Sophia was amazed at the great progress made by the magician.

"It's not a 'domain'. Owen, who was more experienced, came to the exact opposite conclusion of Sophia, "It's an illusion created by magic." ”

"Illusion?" Sophia was a little incredulous, as she reached out and caught the snowflakes that landed in her palm, and the touch was no different from the real thing.

"That's right, while the simulation is very similar, it's definitely not something like a 'domain'. Owen said with certainty, "Because I know that this guy's inner world doesn't care more about the wilderness of the Snowy Federation." ”

As if in response to Owen's assertion, a magic wand fell from the sky, and under the cover of the wind and snow, it went straight into Owen's heavenly spirit cover! Owen took a step back, and the powerful magic wand completely pierced into the snow in front of him, splashing a large cloud of snow, shrouding Owen's surroundings in a white snow mist.

This is also a pre-designed routine, when Owen's vision is blocked and he can't see normally, dozens of magic wands suddenly appear out of the snow and fog, and they smash and beat Owen hard. Head, forehead, eyes, throat, chest...... The attacks of these magic wands, which have been greatly strengthened and hardened, are all vital parts, and the attacks are lethal and merciless, which shows the viciousness of the mages hiding behind.

It's not a "realm", but it's no different from being lethal - it's the magician's response with action.

Sophia, who was standing in the distance, was also thrilling to watch. Although she couldn't see the situation in the snow and mist, she could still see the scene of the random swing of the stick. What worries Sophia even more is the artificially created bitter cold. Even in the ice and snow fantasy realm, the negative magic particles in the surrounding air were still thick, which made her magic barrier attenuate a lot, coupled with the cold that was not something that normal people could resist, so Sophia had to bless herself with two more layers of barriers, barely resisting this double erosion. It's hard to imagine how Owen, who has no protection, has any way to deal with it.

Of course, Owen won't sit still. Although he didn't create a magical barrier to protect himself like Sophia, the heat generated by his body after a long period of strenuous physical exercise offset some of the external cold erosion, so Owen was not completely frozen, he was just a little sluggish. And even if Owen can't see, he can still deftly dodge most of the magic wand blows, relying not on telekinesis or other mystical powers, but on experience and intuition accumulated over a long period of battle. Although Owen did not dodge all the blows, he deliberately used the insignificant parts of his body to bear the few hits he was hit, and he could not inflict damage on Owen's muscles and bones.

Flurry's battering seemed endless, until Owen's stamina was completely exhausted. However, Owen is not blindly beaten, he is also looking for the flaws of his opponent while dodging and being hit.

Suddenly! Owen took the initiative for the first time in his illusion of entering this world of ice and snow! He stepped his right foot to the side, twisted his body 270 degrees, and ignored the dozen magic wands that hit his chest, and Owen's right hand flicked out.

"Got you!" Owen shouted!

The countless shadows around him suddenly disappeared. I saw that Owen's left hand was clutching the end of a magic wand.

The "stick array" created by the magician is actually the product of the continuous replication of his magic wand with the magic of "mirroring", which means that there is only one magic wand body, and when the main body is controlled, dozens or hundreds of other magic wands will also disappear.

It was not only the copied magic wand that disappeared, but also the vast snow fog quickly dissipated, and the magician himself hiding in the snow mist gradually appeared, holding the other end of the magic wand and wrestling with Owen.

Perhaps fearing that even a wand that was as hard as steel would break in this evenly matched wrestle, the magician let the wand fade out of the ice shell, leaving only an empty, thin ice shell in Owen's hands.

Hand-to-hand combat isn't for magicians, but it's remarkable to be able to fight Owen to this extent. Immediately afterward, the mage retreated to a safe distance and continued to attack Owen in the manner that a mage should fight.

The snow rolled up by the icy storm will freeze Owen into ice sculptures and turn him into slag. But Owen was prepared, and as soon as the ice storm formed, Owen passed through the ice storm at a very fast speed and broke into what can be called the "absolute safety zone of the magician".

The other party obviously didn't expect Owen to come so quickly, and he was stunned on the spot. This hesitation allowed Owen to seize the opportunity, and he took advantage of the momentum of the sprint to turn his body and kick the wizard in the waist with a roundabout kick.

"Akira!" An ice wall was summoned in an instant, and Owen's flying kick hit the ice wall.

However, Owen's strength still exceeded the magician's calculations, and although the ice wall blocked the direct damage caused by Owen's flying kick to himself, it could not fully absorb the power of the rush, and the magician himself and the ice wall were pushed back several meters.

At the same time as the magician was pushed away, the ice and snow world peeled off and collapsed piece by piece, like a piece of paper.

Dark caves, dark valleys, miserable green miasma, soft swamps...... Everything familiar is back in front of Sophia's eyes.

Casting a continuous and huge magic requires a high degree of unity of the magician's "essence", "qi", and "god" to form a circular loop of magical power. If the magician is passively displaced by external forces, and the cycle of magic is loosened, then it is normal for the illusion to be shattered and return to reality.

But the disappearance of the Ice and Snow Illusion does not mean that the magician suffers, because as soon as he returns to reality, Owen suddenly finds that he is in a huge magic array.

"Not good!" Before Owen could complain, the magic array was immediately activated. The magic power in the magic array restrained Owen's body to move freely, and a huge ice cage was formed in the magic array, and the ice prison of the semicircle body froze Owen's whole person inside, hovering in mid-air.

"It's so strong?!" Looking at Owen in the ice, Sophia couldn't believe that Owen would be so easily defeated.

But her conclusion was still set too early. Only the sound of "flowers and lala" was heard, and the criss-crossing cracks "grew" rapidly in the huge ice prison, and finally only a loud "bang" was heard, and the ice prison was blasted open from the inside, and sharp broken tips flew everywhere, all over the valley.

And in the middle of the original ice prison, Owen landed steadily on the ground, covered with a layer of white ice crystals all over his body. After he landed, he couldn't help but shiver a few times, which showed that the impact of the ice prison on him was definitely not something that could be eliminated in a short period of time.

But he laughed and shouted heartily into the cave, "If you can force me to use my crushing telekinesis, you have really become stronger." ”

At this moment, a figure stepped steadily out of the cave. In the distance, Sophia could see that the man's figure did not match her memory, and his fat and bloated body had become a muscular man, but the facial features on his face were still very clear.

"Welcome back, Cassius!" said Sophia, too, cheerfully.
