Chapter 20: The Angel and the Demon King

The moment the sky went dark, Constantine was groping around the ruins without raising his head.

Bending down and skirting a leaning stone pillar, Constantine finally saw his goal.

Inside the collapsed church, the magic circle was still running unharmed, and the dark green light flowed along the circle, illuminating the small space.

The entrance to the abyss hung above the magic array, like a deep eye looking at the comer, the pitch-black wind whistled out from the black hole, the wind was mixed with a faint smell of sulfur and fire, and an extremely strong dark aura filled it, ordinary people standing in front of this black hole would have weak legs in a few seconds.

Constantine was not an ordinary person, so he could still stare at the black hole with a normal face at this time, as if he had seen another world through the black hole, in that world, there were countless magma rivers flowing, dark red thick clouds were dense, black lightning shuttled through the red clouds, and countless demons crowded on the vast land, roaring and fighting......

After only staring for a second or two, Constantine stomped his foot violently and swept dozens of meters in front of him.

A pillar of fire fell silently, striking where he had been standing, leaving an ugly black spot on the ground.

"Quick response, young man. Elvis stepped out of the shadows in the corner of the collapsed stone chamber.

"But it's my home and you don't have a chance. The old man said casually, raising his finger and scribbling lightly.

The light of the magic runes flickered in the dim stone room, and then a dense ball of light appeared around him, each of which was only the size of a pebble, but the number of them made the scalp tingle.

This is one of the most basic spells in the arcane system--- arcane missile, and it is also recognized as the lowest level of offensive magic. This arcane can cast magical energy in a certain form to hit opponents with little power. The vast majority of mages will abandon this arcane technique after reaching a certain level of mana in favor of other, more powerful and practical attack spells.

Although this is only a primary arcane that can be used by a magic apprentice, by observing the use of this spell, it can be greatly seen that the caster's own skills, if you want to control more arcane missiles, the more you need outstanding control and huge mental power, so this arcane has always been a mandatory item in the mage level assessment.

According to the current standards set by the Holy Empire Magic Association, under normal circumstances, a beginner mage wearing the Red Maple Badge can control about five to seven missiles, while a mid-level mage wearing the Blue Moon Emblem is required to control ten to fifteen arcane missiles, and holders of the Golden Balance Badge symbolizing high rank can reach more than thirty, and the higher the rank, the more significant the difference in number.

And the number of arcane spheres that appeared in front of Constantine at this moment exceeded fifty, no matter how low the power was, in this terrain, even if only one fifth of the fifty missiles hit, the damage caused would be terrifying.

This is still performed without the help of spell-casting props, which shows how strong the old man's mental power is.

More than fifty arcane balls were fired at Constantine in unison, and in such a small space, the boy had no way to dodge, and no matter which direction he dodged, he was bound to be hit by the pervasive light bullets. From this arcane choice, you can see how old Elvis is. At the moment of his attack, he was very sure that even Diana, who was a god, would not be able to dodge the attack of a full fifty arcane missiles in such a small space, let alone this young man.

But Constantine had no idea of hiding at all.

With a twist of the wrist, the morning light spilled a large sparkling light, outlining countless brilliant streamlines, each of which swept the path of one or several arcane missiles with precision, and before they could get closer, the magic contained in the crystal sword completely destroyed them, and countless brilliant lights bloomed in the stone chamber.

The scene was incredible, but only Constantine knew that it was the result of training at the expense of countless silver coins, and the sacrifice here was literal.

The old man's hand on the crutches trembled, and it was obvious that the scene in front of him was greatly unexpected by him.

Although his reputation is not obvious, as the second giant of the Inquisition, Elvis can also be called a generation of powerhouses, his vision and insight are extraordinary, for him, Constantine's swordsmanship is secondary, what really makes him wary is the calmness and calculation ability that this young man showed at that moment.

Constantine, who was blessed with acceleration magic, was like a tiger with wings, and the morning light in his hand was unprecedentedly agile, and the connection between several movements of slashing and slashing was like flowing water, seamless.

It only took a few breaths for Constantine to break free from the onslaught of many light bullets, and a former Grand Inquisitor who rushed towards the Inquisition in a flash, the blade of Dawn's sword was handed over.

However, it fell short.

For the first time, the infallible crystal longsword lost its target and was stunned in air, because the moment before it hit, the old man actually disappeared out of thin air.

In the next second, Constantine felt a surging wave of magic power behind him, and before he could react, a deep black light had already wrapped him, and the deep darkness engulfed the young man's body, and in this darkness, only pure death messages could be read.

The old man breathed a sigh of relief, his face showed a little tiredness, and he used a flashing technique to avoid the edge of the morning light, came behind Constantine, and then threw out a silent black magic "Death Entanglement", the seamless connection of the two spells was extremely amazing, enough to make the vast majority of high-level magicians in the Holy Empire stunned, and the tide of the battle was turned in an instant, but for Elvis today, the consumption was also not small.

"Sure enough, I'm getting older, and I'm a little unbearable. The old man secretly laughed at himself, he hadn't experienced a high-intensity duel for several years, and his aging body was no longer enough to support him to devote himself to the fast-paced battle at any time like he did when he was young.

But the result was good, the terrifying effect of Death Entanglement was far beyond the reach of ordinary people, and that kid was never immune.

Before Elvis could sigh and reminisce about the fruits of victory, a touch of déjà vu suddenly hit the corner of his eye and occupied his sight.

How so?

Frightened, he no longer had the energy to think about it, and raised the only weapon beside him, the crutch, in an attempt to block the fatal blow.

That ordinary crutch is actually an alchemy item, although it is only at the level of ordinary magic equipment, but it is an alchemy equipment after all, and it is not easy to cut it with an ordinary sword.

With Elvis's identity, it is not difficult to buy higher-level magic items, but this crutch is the only magic item he got when he was young, and it is because Elvis cherishes it very much, even in his old age, he has always kept this crutch by his side, although after many years, the magic effect on the crutch has long been gone, but the basic enchantment properties of some alchemy equipment, such as hardness, are still intact.

The blade of the sword pierced into the cane, and a layer of crystals spread, soon spreading to the entire body of the staff, and even the left palm with Elvis was completely crystallized.

There was a hint of determination in the old man's eyes, he had faced countless treacherous battles in his youth, and he made an unusually cruel decision, and the moment he realized that something was wrong, he did not hesitate to shoot an arcane missile into his left palm.

With a bang, the crystallized left palm shattered into countless tiny crystals in the light, looking extremely beautiful and not bloody at all.

Elvis retreated sharply, flashed to the corner of the wall, and used a healing spell to forcibly stop the blood flowing from the broken wrist, the strong man broke the wrist, although it seemed heroic to outsiders, but for the injured, it was not a pleasant thing.

"It's a shame I didn't keep your other hand. Constantine raised his sword and said.
