The firelight and smoke in the sky obscured Master Kuqi's vision, making him unable to see clearly in the middle of the explosion, but the wind element that filled his side and the pit, as well as the fishy smell that the thick smell of gunpowder in the air could not hide, told him that such a terrible injury had not directly taken the life of the three-eyed poisonous toad.

The wind element around Master Kuchi was still jumping around him like a small tornado, but the difference was that the size of that tornado was expanding more and more, and a trace of blue light oozed from the powerful wind scroll, protecting the body of this Kuchi mage, and the aftermath of the explosion could not get close to Master Kuqi's body at all.

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, a snake-like shadow burst out of the dust, with a strong force, and slammed into the chest of Master Kuqi, leaving no one a chance to react, and the shadow had already probed in front of Master Kuqi's face.

It was the tongue of the three-eyed poisonous toad that had already killed two seventh-level mages!

"Damn!" Master Kuqi's face sank, not afraid that the tongue could kill it, he absolutely believed that in his current state, it was absolutely impossible for the three-eyed poisonous toad to kill him with one blow if he didn't use all his strength, what he was worried about was that this was still so terrifying with the strength of the tongue, and he couldn't tell whether the owner of the tongue had been hurt or not, and what the current state was.

"Smack!"

Sure enough, as Master Kuqi expected, the seemingly amazing blow of the tongue of the three-eyed poisonous toad was directly unloaded by the tornado enveloping him and hit him aside, without causing any damage to Master Kuqi.

However, this attack, on the contrary, betrayed its position.

"Fight!!"

With a flick of his eyes, his fighting instincts for many years made Master Kuqi directly lock the position of the Three-Eyed Poison Toad, he knew very well in his heart that he couldn't drag it out any longer, Rao couldn't take advantage of the opportunity of the Three-Eyed Poison Toad's injury to kill it in one fell swoop, the trouble was them, as well as the defenseless residents in the city, and this spell, he was about to be unable to sustain it, he had to take action!

"Go!!Wind Hurricane!!"

Following the direction of his intuition, Master Kuqi violently lifted the staff in his hand that had been accompanying him since he was promoted to a ninth-level mage, and at the top of the staff, the ninth-level wind crystal nucleus instantly flashed a dazzling cyan light, and the light seeping out from the tornado around Master Kuqi complemented each other, and in an instant, the wind element in the vicinity was more than doubled, jumping with Master Kuqi's movements.

"Smack!"

Like the sound of glass breaking, suddenly, the huge crystal nucleus that was still flashing at the tip of the staff just now shattered without warning, and Master Kuchi, as if he had expected it, just closed his eyes in pain, but there was more determination in his eyes.

So much has been paid, and there are still lives, that beast must be killed!

The sound of the crystal nucleus shattering was like a signal, and in an instant, the wind element in the air was more than doubled, and what emanated from the shattered crystal nucleus was the pure wind element, which was directly mixed in the tornado that surrounded Master Kuqi, and in an instant, the tornado directly increased more than doubled, just like a real tornado in the desert, reaching through the sky and the earth, standing between heaven and earth, Master Kuqi, just like that, stood in the center of the tornado, and the corners of his clothes were gently raised as if they were blown by the breeze。

"Whew!!"

Following the direction of the staff of the lost crystal nucleus in Master Kuqi's hand, this astonishing huge tornado, in the sound of a violent wind, instantly shrunk and shrunk, and in a dazzle, it had turned into a small miniature tornado, only half the size of a person, tightly enveloped on the tip of Master Kuqi's staff, like a solidified wind vortex, pointing straight ahead.

"Buzz!!"

The tornado, straight from the tip of the staff, like a giant electric drill that flew up, had already conjured up a few afterimages before anyone could react, bringing up a crazy wind, and the wind blowing at the edge even turned into a small wind blade, along with the tornado into the unclear dust in front of Master Kuqi's eyes.

"Hmm," Kuqi Mage, who had lost the support of the wind power around him, and had already poured all the energy of his body into that spell, collapsed directly to the ground, his eyes firmly fixed on the direction where the "Wind Hurricane" shot out, "Did you hit??"

This spell was the result of his exhaustion of all his strength, and he also took the incomparably precious ninth-level wind crystal nucleus at the top of the staff, which was worthy of the tenth-level spell that could be cast-"Wind Hurricane Strike", plus the attack released by the previous energy storage scroll, which was comparable to the tenth-level spell, this was already the last attack that the South Gate side could make, if this could not kill the three-eyed poisonous toad

Including the Kuqi mage, who has no power to fight again, this group of people will all die here.

"Haha", Master Kuqi sat slumped on the ground, gasping hard, his eyes did not dare to blink, for fear that the three-eyed poisonous toad would once again spit out its tongue and rush out of the cloud of smoke, but after waiting for a long time, there was no movement at all.

There was also no sound of spell hits, nor the cry of the three-eyed poison toad still alive.

"Your Excellency!"

A voice came, and Kuchi looked back to see that it was Mr. Al's niece, with a hair covered with gravel and dust, which had been suppressed in that corner by the reaction force of the energy storage scroll, which allowed her to dodge the amazing explosion behind, but also saw the amazing spell of Master Kuqi shoot out.

The remaining defenders of the South Gate all knew what the plan was this time, and of course Erina knew that now there was only one way to wait, and there were only two results, the death of the Three-Eyed Toad, or the death of all of them.

"It's Miss Arena, isn't it?" Mage Kuchi tried to exert himself, but he still softened his body and couldn't stand up, not only because of overexertion, but also because of the relaxation after extreme nervousness, "I'm glad to see you again." ”

"Me too, Master Couch. Erina walked gently past Kutch, saluted slightly, and continued to walk forward, and in front of her, there was a cloud of smoke and dust that was not yet clear.

"Wait!" Mage Kuchi was startled and hurriedly called out to her, "What are you going to do?"

"Your Excellency. Irene turned around, "I'll go and see if the beast is still alive, if it's dead, we can celebrate, but if it's not dead"

"I'll do my best to shout it. A shallow smile appeared on Irina's face, Kuqi looked at this smiling face that seemed to be exuding sunshine, a little stunned, after living for such a long time, he actually admired the courage of the little girl in front of him, "When the time comes, it will be up to you to help those companions escape, and you can survive one by one!"

"But I've always had good luck, trust me, my lord. ”

With that, Irena walked towards the smoke without looking back, her figure gradually obscured by the dust.

Not far away, a few figures who had just rushed over here looked at Irina's disappearing figure, and they were also stunned, they were those defenders who had been hiding in the ruins, and they were still standing here, which meant that they were already determined to die, even so, looking at the girl, they also felt a burst of inexplicable respect, two of which were large and one small.

"Really", Liu Song, who had no sense of belonging to this world, suddenly felt that he seemed to be able to understand this girl's feelings, "It's a little admirable"

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

It didn't take long for the remaining defenders to gather around Master Kuqi, but there were still some unlucky ones, affected by the aftermath of the explosion caused by Master Kuqi and the energy storage scroll, and a few who were infiltrated by the poisonous gas permeated by the three-eyed poisonous toad, all of which were nowhere to be seen.

The only dozen or so people were quietly gathered around Master Kuqi, Liu Song and Annie, accompanied by Laura, who had escaped by luck, were silently looking at the area that was getting clearer and clearer, waiting for the girl's figure or a voice.

"It looks like there's a figure!"

The uncertain voice of a person sounded in the crowd, causing a commotion, and Liu Song, Anne and Laura were even more shocked, and their eyes were about to stick into the puff of smoke.

"Yes!! it's a person!!"

The figure became clearer and clearer, and it was even obvious that it was a woman, and Laura was about to cry with excitement, and the crowd was about to cheer uncontrollably.

Finally, the figure stepped out of the smoke, and it was Irena with a smile on her face.

"Everyone", turning his head to look at the defenders gathered in a group, "We won!!"
