Volume 1 The Mystery of the Shadows Chapter 56 Ruthless Pursuit
At this time, in Conrad's mind, the black-cloaked "Nevenmor" was like an inescapable nightmare.
Manipulating Archer Blaze's body, he struggled to sit up, reaching for the ice-sculpted sword in front of his chest, a splash of blood every centimeter the blade was pulled.
Not far in front of Archer, Levi propped himself up on his elbows, holding a milky white soft sphere in his hand, which was a concentrate of Terella's body, and her soul was severely mutilated and in a semi-comatose state, unresponsive to external stimuli.
Under some unknown mechanism, Terrela's soul is highly combined with the body of the Frost King in the dragon egg to take on this form.
Levi wiped the blood from his face with his sleeve, he didn't know exactly how Conrad's soul-sucking witchcraft worked, but he was able to keep Terella's main consciousness for the time being by retrieving some of Terella's soul.
However, the shrine and the dragon's heart are still in Archer's body, which means that Conrad's main ritual has not been interrupted, and until he has incorporated all the souls stored in the shrine into his body, I am afraid that Terella will never be able to retrieve the heart.
This battle is far from over!
With the strong blessing of the dragon's heart, the scar on Archer's chest healed quickly, she looked at Levi coldly, gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I admit that you are very strong...... Now that you've got Terrela, don't stop me! ”
Levi tucked the orb Terella into his sleeve and smiled gloomily, "As I said, your presence is redundant. ”
Before the words fell, a white-hot lightning bolt shot out from his hand, hitting Archer's body—
[G-God Slash]!
The reason why he was able to complete the chanting while speaking was precisely because he had sublimated to the level of mind casting spells with the help of [silent reading], which was an extremely superb skill.
In the face of Levi's resolute and ruthless killing intent, Archer condensed a large amount of necromantic black mist to fight against the terrifying heat of [Replica God Slash], but this forbidden spell known for its lethality was not easy to resist, and the black mist that Archer hastily summoned only supported for a moment before it collapsed, and her flesh was struck by lightning and bounced out like a broken ball.
If it were someone else, I am afraid that she would have been burned to ashes under this blow, but the powerful vitality and healing power provided by the dragon's heart made Archer withstand the scorching lightning burn, her body was scorched black, and the moon-white robe turned into countless scattered sparks, leaving only a few rags wrapped around her body.
Levi didn't give her time to breathe, he flicked his arms, his body carrying the whistling cloak and flew in front of Archer, his right hand clenched into a fist, and the lightning in the fist roared, [Zus's lightning spear] pierced Archer's body like a sharp arrow chasing souls.
Archer was pierced by the lightning spear in mid-air, spitting out a large mouthful of blood, her body fell to the ground and bounced again, her head and feet spun and tumbled for dozens of meters before stopping.
In mid-air, Levi's hand vibrated with invisible ripples, which twisted into a messy stream of energy, turning into a huge hammer and smashing into the top of Archer's head.
Just as [the Great Shockwave] was about to bombard Archer's body, her body suddenly hung in the air, and flew high at a very fast speed, and a green figure swept past her, picked her up by the waist, and flashed in the air.
The powerful concussive ripples missed, shattering the ground into countless black stone fragments, kicking up a monstrous cloud of smoke and dust, and in the smoke, Rudolph grabbed Archer with his arm and fled quickly into the distance.
And above Levi's head, the reflection of the six consciousnesses was already approaching.
It turned out that in a desperate situation, Conrad manipulated Rudolph to rush to the rescue, using [Telekinesis] to fish himself away, and then planned to throw Levi away with Rudolph's high-speed flight.
Seeing that he was about to be surrounded by Emperor Gore, Mavis and Gustav again, Levi was expressionless and urged the flames to fly, he ignored these six people, and preemptively turned into a stream of flames, sweeping in the direction of Archer and Rudolph fleeing—
When Terella's consciousness returned to his hands, Levi found that his mind had cooled down, but the fire inside him had become even hotter.
He clenched his right fist, and the Jiling Central Rune in his palm flickered and dimmed, and its temperature gradually increased as the magic poured in.
Like the Grim Reaper, chase after it!
Levi swept over the arc of the earth, and the first person to strike at him was Connellus.
Like an eagle ready to attack, Connelles sprang out of a broken wall, and the rock where his feet were treading shattered, providing him with an extremely strong counterforce. Like an arrow, his body shot at Levi from the side, and the tip of the long sword stabbed out with precision, aiming straight at Levi's temple.
The forbidden spell [Earth's Touch] can push Flora to a desperate situation, enough to pose a threat to the Origin Warriors, but Connellus is a sage who is known for his physical body, and under the terrifying gravity he has been subjected to, he is not seriously injured, but he is unlikely to be unscathed.
Therefore, although this sword was as fast as thunder, it lacked a bit of extreme speed.
For Levi, the sluggish half meant he had an extra moment to react.
The whistling cloak was raised, and Levi sideways dodged the spearhead of the sword, and the [light, heat, and electric cable] in his hand shot out, wrapping around Connares' neck. Connellus reacted quickly, retracting his sword in front of him and holding the wire against it, and at that moment, Levi put a hand on Connares' face, and [palm fireworks] were released at a very close distance.
The firelight of the successive explosions enveloped Conarius's upper body, but a low spell plus a medium spell could hardly pose a lethal threat to Connellus, only caused some trouble due to the proper release conditions.
In the moments of Levi's pause, Jacob slammed into Levi's head with a strong wind, swinging his wooden staff and smashing it into Levi's head, which would surely collapse to the point of his jaw if hit.
Compared to Connelles, Jacob was under the weight of the [Earth's Caressing], and the bones of an entire leg were broken into pieces and dragged limply behind him, and if he were not able to harness the wind, let alone pursue, he would not have been able to walk.
[Crystal Shield] appeared above Levi's head, not easy but successfully withstood Jacob's heavy blow, and at the same time, after Levi used [Flame Flight] to push Connares away, he also took advantage of the momentum to shoot more than ten meters into the sky, looking down on the two of them.
He raised one palm, and a fist-sized turquoise blue water ball condensed into his palm, and the water ball spun rapidly, and the ripples seemed to contain a miniature water world.
He smashed the balloon of water he was holding up, and the balloon exploded in midair, quickly flooding into a raging blue wave, which swept towards Jacob and Connelles—
Tide Quasi-Forbidden Spell [Great Wave].
Jacob's hands danced, and his staff spun and stirred up a fierce wind, but in the face of this small tsunami, the wind was powerless to support it, and he was swallowed up by the huge waves, whirling beneath the rushing water.
Connelles, on the other hand, landed a little in the air with one foot and used his air technique to shoot several meters into the air, barely avoiding the main impact of the waves.
At this moment, Levi woke up [Double Spell], he floated in the air, and at the same time raised his hands high, and a heavy thunderous sound came from between his ten fingers, and he suddenly clenched his fists, and white electric sparks overflowed between his fingers, and the electric sparks flew into the sky at the speed of light, and disappeared-
Above the heads of Connelles and Jacob, there were thick arcs of electricity that were intertwined at the same time, and countless arcs smashed straight down like two pillars of Thor, so fast that they couldn't dodge!
Double Forbidden Spell [Cluster of Heavenly Punishment].
In the thunder of the riot, the shepherd Jacob was devastated in the midst of the waves, his body was charred black, his flesh was cracked, his blood was burned by lightning, and his body was broken into black charcoal in the aftermath of the waves.
Jacob, delisted.
On the other side, after the thunder faded, only half of the long sword in Connellus's hand remained, his white beard was curled up by electricity, the blood in his mouth stained his beard red, and the skin on the forearm holding the sword was peeled off inch by inch, revealing flesh and white bones, and the rest of his body also had many deep and visible bone injuries.
While Levi was engaged in a battle with the two, the burly Grand Duke Gustav stepped into the air, jumped to Levi's side, and slashed down with a flaming shattering heavy knife - in the face of Gustav's attack, Levi pushed the remaining crystal shield against the blade, and he took the opportunity to fly backwards.
However, this is not the only attack.
A cyan energy arrow hit Levi's body, and the arrow suddenly turned into a cyan python with a thick cup mouth at the moment of hit, and the python was tightly wrapped around Levi's body, the snake's head rushed to his neck, and the cold fangs pierced into the skin.
Levi's body was split into countless crows and flew away, although he escaped with the use of [physical body decomposition], he obviously felt that the magic power in his body was absorbed by the python in large quantities, if it wasn't for him using the entire Ji Ling as a mana reserve, I am afraid that he would have suffered a big loss.
He didn't care about Mavis's secret arts, and one of the ravens in his real form vibrated its wings and flew towards Connellus, reforming into a human form during the flight.
Thinking of Anna Christ's breath of extreme cold, Levi stretched out a finger and pointed it at Connarlius, chanting the Frost Forbidden Spell [Absolute Zero].
In the magical order, breaking through those indestructible orders is the so-called limit...... This is the process of going from quasi-forbidden to forbidden in the realm of frost magic.
In mid-air, Connellus swung his half-cut long sword, and just as he wanted to make a move, he suddenly felt a cold breath rise from his body, and the extreme cold qi rushed out of control in every vein of his veins, and everywhere he passed was a piece of ice.
Connelles' skin was pale and white, and in a single breath, he turned into a white ice sculpture, floating quietly in the air.
A ball of fire struck his body, and the ice sculpture shattered into pieces, splitting apart.
After finishing with a simple [Fire Bomb Technique], Levi flew high into the air without leaving a moment, and in the face of the obstruction of the demonized Gustav and the Emperor Gore, he turned into thunder and traversed-
[Yafei Thunder].
Connelles, delisted.
Lightning rushed, and after crossing a distance of nearly a thousand meters, Levi's figure reappeared in the cracked electric light, and not far in front of him was Rudolph's green figure.
Except for Rudolph, who was running away with Archer, the three people with the strongest mobility in the reflection of consciousness have been removed, and it will be difficult for Levi to catch up as long as he does not stop moving.
Ahead, Rudolph's wand was pointed at Levi in the thunder, quickly replicating the displacement magic, and then he disappeared with Archer in his arm, condensing into a thick lightning bolt and shooting into the distance.
Levi looked coldly in the direction of the lightning flight and sang silently.
[Photon Jump] is not suitable for long journeys, Levi first uses [Flame Flight] to make a short dash, then spends away with the blessing of [Whirring Cloak] and [Jet Air], biting Rudolph's figure.
Green figures and black figures flew one after the other in the ruins.
In the crook of Rudolph's arm, the black fog around Archer grew thicker, and she turned her head to look at "Nevenmor" who was chasing after her, feeling both anger and fear.
Before the ritual was completed, her strength was not as strong as Jacob, the weakest in the reflection of consciousness, but she had more means of escape and defense. However, there are very few souls left in the shrine, and a key part of the ritual she is carrying out is to "shrine" the inner environment, using this body as a vessel that can absorb the dead for a long time.
Once the ritual is complete, she gains the properties of the shrine, that is, the characteristics of the soul collector Nevenmor, the original shrine will naturally be destroyed, and she will be able to transform the necromantic spirit in her body into a powerful power, and she will be afraid of anyone.
Until then, you must not be caught up by this guy!
Levi didn't know what Conrad was thinking, and while he was chasing Rudolph's figure, he threw one magic after another, constantly attacking Rudolph.
From medium spells such as [Great Fire Bomb] and [Queen's Snort] to quasi-forbidden spells such as [Great Shockwave] and [Shockwave], Levi's pursuit spells are endless, dazzling Rudolph, unable to even copy them one by one, and can only use the ruins to dodge in embarrassment, occasionally launching weak counterattacks.
It's not that Levi is unwilling to use the forbidden spell, but Rudolph's plagiarism magic is too tricky, and it is very likely that the forbidden spell will be self-defeating, and he will be stoned to death in the blink of an eye.
Similarly, Conrad is not a fool, in the chase, he consciously or unintentionally adjusted the escape route, and approached Gustavus, Emperor Gore, and others from the side, hoping to stop Levi's pace.
A heavy [Diamond Mallet] flew past Archer, shattering an entire floating structure to pieces, and Rudolph rolled and swooped down in mid-air, narrowly avoiding the smoke and dust. Seeing that Levi was about to chase after the tip of his ass, a majestic wave of sharp qi slashed across him.
If it weren't for Levi's use of [Distracting Spell Cast] to add counter-magic to himself during the pursuit, I'm afraid he would have to confess here immediately.
The sword qi set off by the Mountain King's Sword split his body in two, and his body exploded into a ball of flames and dissipated...... Not far away, a flame sparked out of thin air, and soon expanded to the size of a humanoid, condensing the appearance of Levi.
No sooner had he reshaped from the [Flame Incarnation] counteract, Levi raised his hand and threw an extremely hot [Divine Slash], and white lightning bounced onto Ascomani Munso's Mountain King Sword, sending out devastating fluctuations that swept through the sky.
With the help of the Mountain King's sword, Emperor Gole did not suffer too serious injuries, but the armor on his body was close to disintegrating under the power of the forbidden spell, the black cloak was burned clean, and the horns on the helmet were also broken by lightning.
Levi immediately chased after Rudolph who took the opportunity to flee after throwing [Grieving Slash], the wind howled at his side, and a white line of fire surged from his fingertips, and the line of fire erupted and shot straight at Archer in Rudolph's arms.
Rudolph quickly changed his trajectory to dodge the burning of the [Mini Fire], and he reflexively swung his wand to return the [Gambit Slash] he had just copied to Levi, and a green scorching lightning bolt shot out from the tip of his wand.
Almost at the same moment, a pair of black bone wings appeared behind Levi, and the scorched black claws of the demonized Gustav were grasped, and the Ugin magic pattern in the palm of his hand exuded a hot hellish aura.
Levi's body blurred and turned into a myriad of glowing particles, avoiding the claws of green lightning and scorched black, and leaping behind the demonized Gustav, his feet resting on the pair of horns—Levi's attack seemed to become more aggressive and merciless in the face of Gustav Blaze, whether in human or demonic form: distorted ripples of concussion and red-gold hot flames appeared between his hands, respectively.
One palm with a strong oscillating power grabbed Gustav's left horn, and the other turned a reddish-gold translucent palm grabbed Gustav's right horn, which were the Earth Quasi-Forbidden Spell [Great Shockwave] and the Fire Quasi-Forbidden Spell [Furnace Hand].
Gustav the Demonic let out an angry roar that implied pain, and both of his horns were snapped, one side of the jagged fracture and the other burned by a lava-like flow of flames.
Levi threw away his two horns and condensed a [Lightning Spear] with his bare hands and pierced the back of the demonized Gustav's head, and as soon as the spell was cast, his body was pierced by a magic arrow, turning into a pile of rock fragments, triggering the [Shattered Stone Statue].
The lightning flashed away, and the demonized Gustav was as if he had been hit hard, his head tilted forward, and his huge body was pierced by the impact, and it spun rapidly in midair.
Levi's, on the other hand, flew out of the flying rubble, and had just regrouped when he was attacked by the humanoid Gustav: the Shattering Heavy Knife slashed at him with a heavy burst of flames.
In the face of the falling flaming heavy knife, Levi reached out and chanted a strange forbidden spell, intending to shake Gustav, a white light appeared in his palm, and the light contained a strong energy impact, but the impact dissipated before it was released.
The spell failed.
Levi's body was slashed in two by a heavy knife, and the last layer of counter-magic [Fission Escape] was triggered, and his body split in two, flying in two completely different directions.
After all, he is not a real archmage, even if he can analyze and understand the operation principles of various types of magic through memory and knowledge, he may not be able to successfully chant it, not to mention that he is the first time to cast a spell, not to mention that the spell itself is a forbidden spell with a high difficulty factor.
The result of failure is not surprising, but the price of failure is that a chance to escape is consumed.
Levi's, who flew to the left, was chased by Mayvis's magic arrows, and Levi, who flew away to the right, was slashed by Emperor Gore's sword of the Mountain King.
The real body is on the left, because in Levi's mind, Ascomani Munso is a powerful threat second only to the Void Lord, and Mavis is limited by his rigid behavior and cannot fully exert his strength, so it is easier to deal with.
After fending off magic arrows with advanced defensive magic such as [Ninefold Guardian] and [Mini Angel], Levi rushed towards the demonized Gustav not far away in the state of [Flame Flight].
The cooldown of [Double Cast] has ended, and Levi does not hesitate to chant to activate the state, and at the same time his hands carve an invisible elemental symbol in the air.
However, Mayvis, Gustav the humanoid, and Ascomani attacked Levi's back together, but they didn't have time to stop him from casting his spell:
A brown circle of light appeared above Gustav's head and under his feet at the same time, and two [Earth's Touches] in opposite directions of gravity condensed into a ring, and a terrifying hedge erupted in between, enough to crush bones and crush steel, like two giant hammers, squeezing Gustav's body in the middle—
His mutilated horns were littered with cracks, his black bone wings shattering inch by inch, his charred black claws twisting in reverse into misshapen angles...... His massive demonic body shattered into a large black mist of blood in two circles of light.
It all ended quickly, and the [Arrowy Thunder] cooldown was just refreshed.
Before the fatal attack of Mavis and the others arrived, Levi's body turned into a leaping lightning bolt again, chasing Rudolph in the distance.
Ten steps to kill one person, his cold-blooded pursuit of Conrad never ends, and it never stops until he gets the shrine.
Demonize Gustav, remove the name.
