Chapter 112: A Round of Defeat
- At the same time, the top of the Magic Tower.
In a clutter of planetariums, incense burners, and books and tables filled with parchment scrolls and precious fisre, an old man in a robe adorned with stars and crescents was watching with interest the battle that was about to break out on the first floor.
"Mr. Raspuchin is still the same as before, and he doesn't give people any face......"
Mr. Green smiled and muttered to himself, stroking the glass orb in his hand, which showed the wizard floating in the air with a silver-white mask, and the young man standing above the tower below.
"McQueen Mathers, what a nostalgic name. It's still nice to see an old friend alive, don't you think? ”
He was talking in an empty room. Of course. If anyone could have been there to take a closer look, they would have realized that it was not correct to say that it was "empty", because in addition to Mr. Green's accident, there was a parrot standing in the birdcage, and the old wizard was obviously talking to "it".
Parrots open their sharp beaks and make "quack" sounds, wondering if they can really understand human language.
"Hehe......"
The room echoed with the old man's low laughter.
……
On the other side, in a room that looks like a luxury hotel bedroom, a middle-aged man with a red wine glass stands in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, quietly looking out of the window.
His face, which is not angry and arrogant, is reflected in the glass, and there are images of the illusory smoke giant and the giant man-eating flower grinning at each other, cheering for their master;
……
In a large and empty hall, every inch of the wall to the ceiling is engraved with dense lines, and the bright light flows on it. The highest-grade magic array in the Great Temple of Rasputin consumed most of the school's inventory, and the mass of the mystical mercury flowing here was more than ten times higher than that.
One arc after another spread outward like ripples, and the large and small magic arrays seemed to be nested with each other like one Kong Ming ring after another, perfectly fitted together.
Sitting in the center of the eye of the giant compound magic circle composed of ten of the highest specifications was an old woman in a robe, her back straight, holding this position for more than 24 hours, like an ascetic.
In front of Lorel Garcia, there was a circular depression, like a puddle of water seeping through the rain, with a pale silver liquid flowing inside, like a flowing mirror. And it also shows two wizards who are about to start a fight;
……
Outside the magic tower, in the swirling clouds, a huge eagle with feathers shining like metallic cold and sharp luster was spreading its wings and soaring, this eagle's physique was at least the size of two elephants combined.
A young man with blond hair was lying on it in a leisurely posture. His eyes were slightly closed, as if he could not bear the direct sunlight falling from the sky.
But in fact, there are no human pupils under his nose, but an empty one—the real "eyeball" is interconnected with the optic nerves of the demon under his seat, sharing a vision far beyond that of humans;
……
At this moment, the four wizard leaders, without exception, set their "eyes" here.
Richard was thinking too simply.
When the internal energy supply system of the Starfire Furnace was activated and the magic array was linked, it was the real name that was manipulating; The resonance was only seen by Richard and his real name near the Starfire Furnace, as well as Duncan Davy and Crowley, who were at Willet's side at the time, and only lasted for a brief moment, so it was not enough to attract attention.
However, when the Spelllord uses the Storm Cage, it is impossible for the Legendary Wizards to continue to turn a blind eye.
Rasputin's sudden appearance and the first confrontation with the foreign wizard who called himself "McQueen Mathers" were even more "surprises" for them.
Whether it is a "colleague" with a mysterious style and seems to have made a breakthrough in recent times, or a long-established Reverse Cross Apostle, it is rare to have the opportunity to gather information about them, and it is really rare to have the opportunity to see a wizard of this level in front of everyone.
And, even if this is an opportunity to test the strength of both sides, in a sense, it is human nature to join in the fun, and even legendary wizards who are high above are not exempt......
However, the next development was unexpected by all onlookers. Because the end of this battle is far faster than they imagined.
……
Under Rasputin's manipulation, the Spell Lord's offensive seemed to be no different from before, still letting out a silent roar and smashing down with a punch.
The tentacles of the cannibal demon suddenly opened, tightly intertwined with each other, and layers of hard matter quickly multiplied, gathering into huge pitch-black fists, facing upwards.
"Materialization" gives the ability to interfere with matter as a lord; But on the other hand, it was originally unrestrained in the spiritual world, but it will be constrained by the physical laws of the real world.
"Boom!"
The invisible shockwaves that collided with each other swept through the surrounding rooftops, and the tower's pillars wrapped in cannibals slowly collapsed, tilting to one side, barely collapsing thanks to the demon's roots.
The wriggling dark tentacles burst one by one, flesh flowers bloomed in the air, and the arms of the Enchanted Spirit Lord vanished once more.
…… It seems to be comparable. It's just that the recovery ability of a spirit is definitely faster than that of a demon.
But taking advantage of this opportunity, "Crowley" has already raised his hand and aimed it at "Raspuchin" floating above.
Mathers has the power to manipulate demons with the help of his student's body, but what he really excels at is curse magic-
The dark and pure light was like a mandala flower blooming on the body of the wizard leader. However, like the flame on a candle, the light quickly disappears when it is blown by the wind.
“......”
Mathers' face was still at ease. He had been prepared for this, and that was just a temptation. Seeing that the "curse" could not take effect for the time being, he began to analyze the composition of the "talisman technique" on Raspuchin's body, and his hand bloomed with electric light, and at the same time, he took off again, and his body floated backwards.
The Enchanted Spirit Lord's fist fell for the second time—
This would have been a good opportunity, as Mathers, who casts spells continuously, doesn't seem to have the ability to counter, and can only resist with barrier spells and talismans.
Duels between high-level wizards have always been like this, and each wizard has a large number of talisman techniques set up around them on weekdays, and only when they are consumed can they really hurt each other, unless there is a clear rank gap between the two.
It's like "armor cutting" in the term "knightly duel", and the battle becomes long because of it. The most famous battle in the past decade was the "short" collision between the Babel Sage "Parmenides" and the former Pope of the Ancient Serpent Order, the "King of Scorched Hell", which resulted in the flatten of hundreds of miles of mountains, the drying up of dozens of rivers and the formation of more than a dozen volcanic craters, and the appearance of twelve rifts in the plains with a depth of thousands of kilometers, constituting an unprecedented man-made spectacle, and the battle ended after three days and three nights.
Surprisingly, however, the Spell Lord's punch failed to hit the enemy's body, let alone cut down on his body, and instead slipped elsewhere and landed in the middle of nowhere.
...... Missed?
All the wizards who were paying attention to the battlefield seemed to have a "? ”。
However, only the unscathed McQueen Mathers's face, the nasty smile that remained unchanged disappeared for the first time-
"How is that possible?! How did you see ......?"
Before he could finish his sentence, his cheeks bulged, his face turned as blue as a pig's liver, and then he spat out a mouthful of blood and fell straight from the sky.
And his questions were met only by the masked man's cold and arrogant response.
"Get out!"
In the next moment, his body was blown away like a fly or a feather.
……
In just one round, McQueen Mathers, the legendary dark wizard who is famous in the occult world, the "Apostle" of the Reverse Cross and the "Supreme Mentor" of the Golden Dawn, was defeated at the hands of "Novich Rasputchin".
