Chapter Twenty-Seven: Diamond Stardust
"Who are you? that sissy in the hat was your companion?" asked Cassiu, staring at the other.
"Companion is a big deal. The black-robed man sighed, "If the Eight Sages also have the concept of 'companion'...... Forget it, you can call me Black Fox. ”
Although he knew that the possibility of negotiation was extremely low, Cassius still held on to a glimmer of hope and politely asked: "Mr. Black Fox, I am Cassius, and my friend and I fought through the Blood Mountain just to save a very important companion. We have no grudges and no hatred, there is no need to fight to the death, I hope Mr. Black Fox can open a way. ”
"Saving people, breaking into the mountains, these have nothing to do with me. Do what you want. The black fox yawned lazily.
The other party agreed so lightly, Cassius was a little unconvinced, but he was worried that the black fox would change his hexagram, and hurriedly said: "Then thank you Mr. Black Fox, I will leave first, and I will definitely repay it in the future." ”
"Wait. The Black Fox suddenly changed his words, almost driving Cassius crazy, "I didn't say let you go." ”
"You ......" Cassius was so angry that he should have thought that it couldn't be so smooth.
The black wolf stretched out his little finger and plucked his ears leisurely: "You must know that after becoming a blood clan, the first thing humans have to learn is self-restraint. I am a man with extremely poor self-control, and I spend most of my time sleeping in order to avoid losing control due to my lack of self-control. But since you've woken up, stay with me for a while. ”
Knowing that this battle was inevitable, Cassius simply abandoned his illusions.
The shadows that were wrapped around the black fox danced, growing larger and larger, occupying a position in the air, transforming into dozens of shadow spears, and shooting at Cassius condescendingly. Cassius's mental power was already in a highly active state, and he swung a magic battle, and two walls of ice appeared above him. The Shadow Spear shattered the first layer of ice wall defenses, but at the same time, it also neutralized two-thirds of the Shadow Spear, and the remaining Shadow Spear was completely blocked by the second layer of ice wall.
As Cassius defended himself against the shadow spear from above, the four shadows below him surged silently. The four shadows joined together and turned into the blood disc of a huge monster, surrounded on all sides by sharp teeth. The jaws closed, trying to bite Cassius in the middle. But how could Cassius forget about this potential danger? Almost at the same time as he unleashed the double wall of ice, he silently recited another magical spell in his mind: "Water Internment"!
The jaw, which was about to close, was jammed by a wave of water that instantly poured out from Cassius's side. The circulating water violently pulled the Shadow's jaw open and pressed it to the ground. Cassius then flipped the "Grip of Endurance" over and placed the end of the sapphire containing the magic solution on the ground, and the magic power was injected into the ground along the staff, and Cassius cast a third spell, "Frozen Earth", without any break.
The current of water wrestling with the Shadow Giant Mouth cooled sharply and quickly froze into ice, which spread at an extremely rapid rate, freezing the ground around Cassius in a radius of 4 meters. The thin layer of ice cut off the transmission of magic between the earth and the shadows, and the giant mouth that had lost its magic power supply could no longer maintain its materialization, and immediately returned to the harmless shadow state of humans and animals.
Now that this move has succeeded in isolating the magic of the absolute side, Cassius's next step is to keep up the good work! He continues to infuse the ground with mana, covering the range of the "frozen earth" directly at the feet of the black fox. As long as the other party can't control the shadow on the ground, it is his chance to win!
However, the black fox smiled meaningfully at Cassius. Just when the ice was still 5 or 6 meters away from the black fox, the low shadow wall stopped forward, and the thin layer of ice hit the shadow wall, unable to continue to expand. Cassius understood the meaning of the other party's smile: "You can isolate my shadow with ice, and I can also isolate your ice with my shadow." ”
It was known that it would not be possible to succeed lightly, so Cassius still had a back hand. The temperature of the school yard was further reduced by his magic, and more water elements were condensed. Countless small but sharp ice needles appeared in the sky, and they rained down on the black fox's location. The black fox waved his hand carelessly, and a large black shadow emerged around him, and the black fox teleported at will within the range of the shadow, dodging the close ice needle attack. The ice crashed into the ground, forming a white mist in the shadows.
Taking advantage of the cover of the fog, Cassius hurriedly opened the space storage ring, took out a bottle of magic replenishment potion from it, and drank it "clump". The magic four consecutive shots just now seemed gorgeous, but in fact, he squeezed out the little magic power he had left, and if he didn't replenish his magic power in time, there was only one way to die if he continued to fight against this kind of enemy.
The magic potion was specially formulated by Ischennova with great painstaking efforts, and the effect was extremely fast, as soon as the cold potion entered the esophagus, Cassius felt a huge spring of magic gushing out of his body, and the suffocating sensation caused by the lack of magic power disappeared. After recovering his magic, Cassius did not stop for a moment, and he whispered a spell to gather the magic for a large, high-level magic.
The black fox in the vapor mist was unharmed, and the rain of ice needles that Cassius smashed through the dense smash looked imposing, but none of them could hit the black fox under the floating shadow movement, and all of them turned into water vapor or ice crystals after the magic was exhausted. In fact, the Black Fox had already noticed Cassius drinking the mana potion, but he just pretended not to see it and didn't bother to interfere, although it was easy for him to do so, but it would be much less fun.
When the vapor mist completely dissipated, it was estimated that the fat man's magic had fully recovered, and a smile flashed across the black fox's mouth, and with a slight wave of his hand, overlapping black shadows surged towards Cassius from all directions.
By Cassius's side, a strong chill protected him, and the chill rolled up the dust on the ground, forming a rapidly rising vortex of magical power, blocking out all shadows. When the cold air rose to a certain height, Cassius let go of his hand, and the "Grip of Endurance" automatically rose to the top of the magic vortex. The cold qi stopped spinning, and with the magic wand as the core, it fused with each other, and finally turned into a giant ice dragon that was hundreds of meters long, condescending and threatening the black fox.
"It's been so long to figure this thing out?" the imposing Ice Dragon was a little disappointed in the Black Fox's eyes.
But Cassius didn't have time or mood to fight between words, he raised his free right hand and snapped his fingers, and the ice dragon roared and bit at the black fox. The barrier formed by several layers of shadow walls was vulnerable to the ice dragon with the magic wand as the core, and was bitten to pieces, and then disappeared into thin air.
Facing the menacing Ice Dragon, the black fox rolled his eyes and shook his finger nonchalantly. I saw a small spatial gap suddenly appear somewhere in the sky above, and several small objects that were barely visible fell from the spatial crack.
The Ice Dragon suddenly stopped when it was less than half a meter away from the black fox. Stunned, Cassius subconsciously thought that he had encountered a time still magic, but he soon realized that it was not time magic at all, because the ice dragon was not completely static, it seemed to be desperately struggling forward, and the long dragon body trembled, as if something blocked its movements, making it unable to move for half a minute.
What's that?
The sharp-eyed Cassius quickly noticed that there seemed to be several nails stuck in the ground where the Ice Dragon had cast its shadows, and those things had a tangible feeling, not like the products of the materialization of the shadows.
"You noticed. This nail is called a 'fuser nail', which is a magical auxiliary item created to match the use of shadow magic. The black fox flipped his hand, and an identical black iron nail appeared in his hand, "The shadow nailed by the 'Fixing Nail' will in turn affect the body of the shadow. As long as there is a shadow, it can be deprived of mobility by the 'Fixing Nail', whether it is magic, objects, animals, or living humans. ”
Mankind?!
An ominous premonition rose from Cassius's heart, and before he could react, a small spatial crack quietly appeared in the air above his head, and four "fuser nails" fell from the sky and nailed to Cassius's four shadows. Suddenly, his body seemed to be tied to clues, and Cassius couldn't move his whole body, even though he barely wanted to move, he felt several nails embedded in the bones of his limbs, and the pain was incomparable.
However, the Black Fox didn't think about giving Cassius a second chance. Originally, when he saw Cassius alone in the three-dimensional magic image, he thought that he had finally found the joy of retribution, but he didn't expect that this kid's strength was just like that, so there was no need to continue to waste time, and it was the right thing to do now to finish off this kid and go back to sleep.
The black fox didn't need to chant any incantations at all, and the magic changed with his thoughts. The dark shadow around him materialized into a deep, dark giant scythe, slashing diagonally towards Cassius. The defensive cold qi that originally surrounded Cassius had been transformed into an ice dragon for attacking, and at this time, Cassius was defenseless, and he didn't even have a chance to escape when his body was controlled by the "Fixing Nail".
The razor-sharp Shadow Scythe sliced Cassius in two, blood flying. Subsequently, the Ice Dragon also lost the supply of mana, and completely shattered into ice slag all over the ground, and the "Endurance Grip" as the core also fell to the ground full of broken ice.
"Vulnerable. The black wolf sighed and turned to leave.
But at this time, the black fox heard a painful but unyielding cry: "Wait...... It's not over yet. ”
Cassius's corpse, slashed in two by the Shadow Scythe, quickly became transparent, then shattered, turning into a cloud of ice. "A stand-in made for yourself with ice?" Seeing this scene, the black fox smiled happily.
Two meters behind the left side of the broken ice, a panting Cassius fell to his knees, and the magic robe given by Reguno was cut by a sharp weapon from his right shoulder to his left waist, revealing the long scar on his body inside, and blood was gushing out along the scar.
"Being cut into two pieces and replacing your own body with the ice and snow stand-in in an instant? The black fox couldn't help but admire, "Although it is not completely dodged, it is better to leave a scar than to break it in two." ”
"Did you notice? I didn't speak. Cassius froze his wound and stood up in pain.
"I know, you're chanting a spell of advanced magic. But your magic doesn't seem to be very useful. The black fox squinted at the magic wand lying on the ground.
"Do you think the magic I've been preparing for so long is the ice dragon? Get ready to take it!" Cassius snapped his fingers as he raised his still mobile right hand.
On the ground of the school ground, in the air, bursts of dazzling light suddenly flashed, and countless ice crystals were seen floating in the air, shining, looking like dust of broken diamonds from a distance. The black fox raised his hand and a black shadow rushed forward, but to his surprise, the black shadow did not sweep away the dust of those ice crystals, but the dust was extremely sharp, completely crushing the black shadow.
"Is this magic ...... I see, you deliberately let the tiny ice crystals float around from the beginning just to prepare for this magic, and I think that the ice dragon was just a decoy. The black wolf lamented that he himself had not even noticed Cassius' intentions.
"That's right, as you think. Diamonds are known to be the hardest substance in the world and can shred steel lightly. Now the countless small Xiaoice crystals flying everywhere, each one has been strengthened by me to the hardness of simulated diamonds, in other words, you are now equivalent to being surrounded by billions of blades, no matter how tight your shadow defense is, and the shadow teleportation is fleeting, in the face of this all-round, no dead angle attack, you can't completely defend and dodge. Cassius's voice was like a bell, and the long-held depression and the pain of injury were all vented at this moment, "Come and pick me up, 'Diamond Stardust'!"
