Chapter 217: Project Rose (5)
"Fani!" Ryan saw the scene of Catherine's sneak attack on Faraz, but because he was entangled by Catherine's countless whip shadows, he couldn't get out of his body to rescue at all, and carefully opened a gap to let Faraz out, but couldn't give Catherine any opportunity to take advantage of Victor, who was too late to rescue because he was trying his best to maintain the operation of the entire forbidden magic array.
Seeing that Faras was about to be destroyed by Catherine's whip of flames, Vivien, who was standing beside Faras, pounced on Faras's back without hesitation, and the shocking whip was directly on Vivian's back.
"Ahh
"Vivien!" Ryan's eyes turned red, his brain went blank with a buzz, and his entire body seemed to become empty at this moment.
"Ah, Catherine, I want you to die!" Ryan's anger erupted, and his body underwent strange changes, and at this moment, Ryan's body began to split, and six phantoms appeared around him, but each of these mirrors was rather dim, and it seemed as if they would disappear anytime and anywhere.
If there are only these, it is not enough to call it weird, the most strange thing for Catherine is that she has obviously set up multiple areas of different times around Ryan, but why is all the movements of Ryan's 7 mirror images so consistent, as if she is in a normal space, and is not affected by her own field at all.
"Hey, that's a fast speed!" Catherine was thinking about what Ryan's move meant, and suddenly found that Ryan's 7 mirror images were all casting spells, this scene she had seen in the battle this morning, but to Catherine's surprise, the magic array released by Ryan's 7 mirror images was actually exactly the same, but the casting speed of each of his mirror images was too fast, so fast that it could be described as weird, because even Catherine would never be able to reach this speed.
In just a few seconds, Ryan's 7 mirror images each completed the drawing of the magic array, and under Ryan's control, the 7 magic arrays overlapped flawlessly, and after a strong light burst out, even Victor, who was outside the forbidden magic array, felt a strong magic fluctuation.
"How is that possible?" Victor also shouted, he was really embarrassed today, but the forbidden magic array he personally presided over allowed Catherine to create her own domain in his magic array, and that's it, after all, both sides are legendary-level magicians, and they are powerless to stop each other from opening their own domains, but now Ryan, who is obviously inferior to himself, actually forcibly drew such a terrifying magic array in the forbidden magic array, what is this going on?
"Time warp, bastard, it's time warp!" Catherine finally thought of what Ryan's actions just now meant, "Time Warp", an existence that can be compared to "Time Stop", this magic can speed up the caster's own speed, allowing the caster to burst out with powerful power in a short period of time, simply put, it speeds up the passage of time, so that the caster can calmly cast spells, which is just the opposite of the principle of "Time Stop", but their purpose is exactly the same.
Of course, the most important point is that "time warp" does not need to consume a lot of mana like "time stop", because "time stop" is the time to imprison other people for a short period of time, which is not an easy thing to do. And "time warp" is to accelerate the consumption of one's own time, in other words, it is burning one's own life, and like Ryan just did to directly use 7 mirrors to use this technique, that short period of seconds consumed at least more than a year of Ryan's life.
The wild magic fluctuations became more and more violent, Victor even had a feeling that he couldn't hold it, he immediately made a decision, and immediately forcibly teleported all Alendor and the others in the forbidden magic array, and the guards outside the wine cellar had already been evacuated, in fact, there were less than a hundred people still in this manor, Victor had already made up his mind in a short moment, and after he got Alendor and them to a safe place nearby, he began to gather energy without hesitation.
Since Catherine has entered the legendary realm, the forbidden magic array that Victor painstakingly presided over has lost its effect, and now it has come to this point, no matter whether Ryan's magic can severely damage Catherine, Victor is determined to destroy Catherine on the spot, and will never give her a chance to escape or summon backups, as for how to deal with public opinion, it will be a matter for the future. As long as Catherine is killed, even if the demigod Lich Cons is projected to this plane again, Victor has the confidence to deal with the opponent, and if it can't be done, he will simply lead Faraz and the others directly to another plane to avoid the attack of the demigod lich, in short, there must be a result tonight.
Catherine, who was in the forbidden magic array, did not find that the magic array outside had existed in name only, and she no longer had an elegant smile on her face now, the magic array that Ryan desperately released was an absolutely terrifying existence, which was almost equivalent to 7 mages with the same strength as Ryan casting spells together and stacking the power together, even if Catherine or Victor had entered the legendary realm, they had to avoid it.
It's just that Catherine has nowhere to hide, because Ryan's magic array has locked her magic aura, and the terrifying power that could have turned a small city into ruins has been forcibly compressed by Ryan, and their target is the legendary mage, the Queen of Flames, Catherine.
"Boy, are you desperate for that woman and me?" Although Catherine felt the power of Ryan's magic, she didn't have any worries, because she had a means to keep herself safe, and that was "time stops". With Catherine's strength, the "Time Stop" magic she released was enough to escape by casting magic such as "teleportation", which was one of the biggest reasons why Victor decided to trap Catherine with the Forbidden Magic Circle in the first place.
It's just that the whole plan hasn't changed quickly, Victor didn't expect Catherine to enter the legendary realm, so that even in the forbidden magic array, Catherine can release her own realm with her own power, and in her realm, Catherine can calmly cast the "time stop" magic, and then use a time travel to break through the forbidden magic array set up by Victor, and naturally dodge Ryan's attack.
The energy fluctuations gathered by Ryan's overlapping magic circle are getting smaller and smaller, but the pressure it brings to Catherine is increasing, Catherine knows that this is caused by the magical energy that can destroy a small city being compressed in a small space, and she does not hesitate to start chanting the magic spell "Time Stops" in her realm, ready to usher in the moment when everything loses its color.
Ryan looked at Catherine with red eyes, he had already learned the power of Catherine's magic 3 years ago, but Ryan's current strength was not at the level of Catherine 3 years ago, but Ryan took various means to make his magic attack power reach a level that was enough to threaten Catherine.
Now Catherine plans to repeat the old trick again, but there is no expression of disappointment and resentment on Ryan's face at all, but there is a look of everything under control, just as Catherine coldly spit out the last few magic spells of "Time Stop", the "Star Robe" on Ryan's body also suddenly burst out with a strong light.
The color in the wine cellar, which had been restored to its original appearance due to the failure of the forbidden magic array, suddenly dimmed, even the light emitted by the few magic lamps on the walls, and the whole world seemed to fade completely in an instant, leaving only pure black and white.
Even light is stopped within the range of Catherine's "time stops" magic, and if there were other humans or creatures within this range, they would find that their movements were completely frozen, and although their consciousness was still there, their bodies were completely unable to compete with this powerful magical power.
It's just that in the past, Catherine could still move after casting spells to imprison others, and she would use this time to calmly release various magic, and then bring the most damage to the enemy after lifting the time confinement, or directly run the teleportation magic to let herself leave safely. However, when Catherine's "time stops" spell takes effect, even she is unable to move herself.
Catherine's consciousness thought quickly, and a trivial matter that was not so inconspicuous just now caught Catherine's attention, and she finally understood that at the same time that she completed the magic of "time stop", the "Star Robe" on Ryan's body also released a similar magic, which is equivalent to two spells taking effect at the same time, Catherine imprisoned Ryan's time, and Ryan also imprisoned Catherine's time.
With a flick of her fingers, the magic lamp on the wall flashed with a jumping red light, and Catherine's body could move again, but the magic array that Ryan desperately released was also activated, and the powerful force directly pounced on Catherine, devouring her body directly in it.
The earth shook, and huge energy fluctuations forcibly overturned rows of houses, rising directly from the ground, and then those energy that could not be vented began to spread in all directions, radiating circles of ripples around this wine cellar, and everywhere these ripples like waves went, all the buildings turned into dust and floated in the air, and these were only inadvertently affected by Ryan's magic.
And in the direction of the entire magic attack, a strong energy flew directly into the sky at an oblique angle, even the citizens of the imperial capital who were more than ten kilometers away completely felt this terrible fluctuation, and this energy still gathered even if it flew out of dozens of kilometers, so that the dark clouds in the sky were forcibly torn open a gap hundreds of meters in diameter, and the bright moonlight shone on the ground through this gap, making people feel cold for a while.
