Chapter 24: Encounters (II)
Merlin tilted his ears and listened carefully to the movement in the room. Because he insisted on practicing the movements on the mysterious relief, Merlin's whole body was greatly sharpened, and he could hear the slightest noise in the room.
"Why is there no movement?"
Merlin frowned, he had heard a faint sound of footsteps just now, and it seemed that he had reached the door, but suddenly there was no movement.
"Bang".
With a loud bang, the wooden gate next to Merlin was suddenly shattered by a punch, and the broken wood chips flew in all directions, and then, a hand quickly stretched out from the hole in the wooden door, and a little white light flashed.
"Phew".
It was a sharp dagger that stabbed straight at Merlin.
"Discovered!"
Merlin immediately realized that his whereabouts had been discovered.
The speed of the dagger was so fast that Merlin didn't have time to parry, so he had to roll on the ground, and he dodged the blow in embarrassment.
"Grass. ”
Merlin was also angry in his heart, and couldn't help but burst into a foul language, he didn't even see what the other party was like, and he was almost killed, or was he too careless.
After bursting into a foul mouth, Merlin did not sit still, but bowed his body violently, like a fierce cheetah, with his strong explosive power, the whole person rushed towards the wooden door.
"Click".
The wooden door was completely shattered, and Merlin felt himself hit a soft body, slamming the other party directly into the wooden house.
It was very dark in the wooden house, the curtains were nailed, presumably sent by the city defense regiment to nail it down, the whole hut was almost closed, and because there was no ventilation for a long time, there was a very unpleasant smell of mold in the house.
After Merlin knocked the other party away, he immediately jumped up from the ground, stared at the other party vigilantly, and asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?"
The mysterious man in front of him was wearing a black robe, the wide robe covered his figure, and he couldn't see the specific figure, and he was wearing a huge black cloak on his head, and his face was also unclear.
In the face of Merlin's questioning, the black-robed mysterious man did not speak, but raised the dagger in his hand again, and his wide black robe actually gradually swayed, as if there was a breeze around the mysterious man.
"Huh, the Wind Elemental, the Elemental Swordsman?"
Merlin is already very sensitive to the elements, the wind element fluctuations on the other party's body are very strong, completely surrounding him, the other party is an elemental swordsman, and from the fluctuations of the wind element on the other party, it should only be a first-level elemental swordsman.
"Whoosh".
The figure of the black-robed mysterious figure flashed, and the speed was extremely fast, in the dim wooden house, even if Merlin's sense was very keen, he could not catch the figure of the black-robed mysterious person, and the speed of the other party was too fast.
Merlin could only remain motionless, in order to respond to all changes, once he sensed something around him, he would punch it without thinking, but each punch seemed to hit the air, making Merlin feel very uncomfortable with no place to use.
"Whew. ”
Suddenly, Merlin felt a chill in his neck, and a feeling of extreme danger appeared, he hurriedly turned his neck slightly, and the sharp dagger cut directly through Merlin's neck.
Fortunately, Merlin dodged in time, and his body became very tough because of the cultivation of the mysterious relief, so this blow only cut through the epidermis.
However, this made Merlin break out in a cold sweat, and his neck was almost cut just now.
"Damn, it's too fast. ”
Merlin scolded in a low voice, the other party is a tempest swordsman, the best at speed, his elusive figure is too fast, Merlin can't even capture the other party's figure, let alone hit the other party.
The room was too dark, and fighting a tempest swordsman in such an environment would definitely be at a disadvantage.
Thinking of this, Merlin turned around sharply and ran wildly outside.
"Whew".
However, the mystery man seemed to be faster, and he grabbed Merlin in front of him, and the dagger in his hand stabbed Merlin in the chest.
"I've got you, I'm going to die!"
A smile appeared between Merlin's lips, and by the light of the doorway, he clearly saw a dark shadow in front of him, and this was when he made a move.
"Fireball!"
A fireball appeared out of thin air, and then it roared, directly towards the mysterious person, and the whistling fireball exuded a terrifying temperature, which was very conspicuous in the dim room.
The speed of the fireball was very fast, but the other party seemed to be slightly stunned by the sudden appearance of the fireball, and only had time to turn sideways, and the fireball directly crashed into the opponent's black cloak.
The temperature of the fireball technique was extremely high, and there was almost no hindrance, and it directly burned half of the opponent's black cloak, revealing a beautiful long golden hair.
It was very dark in the room, and although Merlin couldn't see the expression on the other party's face, he could guess one or two at this time, and he must have been very shocked.
While the other party was still stunned, Merlin jumped forward directly, grabbed the opponent's robe with a big hand like a fan, and slammed it to the ground.
"Bang".
How powerful is Merlin's strength? This smash directly knocked the opponent into a daze, but the mysterious man is worthy of being an elemental swordsman, and his physical fitness is also very good, and he can still raise his hand and stab Merlin in the neck.
"Humph!"
Merlin snorted coldly, grabbed the other party's hand with his left hand, and then grabbed the mysterious man's hair with his right hand, and without the slightest hesitation, slammed it against the wall.
"Bang bang bang".
After hitting him three times in a row, and seeing that the mysterious man did not struggle anymore and fell to the ground softly, Merlin stopped.
Merlin gasped, this was the first time he had faced such a dangerous opponent, and it was a life-and-death fight, although in terms of strength, Merlin was a powerful mage, and could easily defeat any first-level or second-level elemental swordsman, but just now he almost died in the hands of the other party.
If you can't apply spells to actual combat, even if you master a powerful spell, it won't help.
At the beginning, the old man Aita had only mastered two zero-level spells, and like Merlin, he was an entry-level spellcaster, and in the caster's level, the entry-level could be called a non-entry, and he was not even a real spellcaster, only by mastering three zero-level spells, and replacing the three zero-level spells with first-level spells, could he become a first-level spellcaster.
Even if Old Man Aita is only an entry-level spellcaster, he was very easy when he dealt with the guardian swordsman from Grand City, and even a second-level elemental swordsman like the Borg Swordsman was far from being an opponent of Old Man Aita, which also proved that the strength of the casters was far from being comparable to that of the elemental swordsman.
However, today Merlin was almost killed by a first-level elemental swordsman, which shows that his combat experience is still seriously insufficient, and he didn't even have the opportunity to cast spells at the beginning, which is a very fatal shortcoming as a spellcaster.
Merlin touched his neck with his hand, and there was sticky blood on his hand, but it was only a cut on the surface of the skin, and the bleeding had stopped, so it was not a big deal.
This is a big lesson!
"If I just unleash the fireball technique and blast open the gate at the beginning, no matter how fast he is, he won't hurt me. ”
Merlin summed up his shortcomings in the battle just now, he was still a little unaccustomed to the identity of the caster and the habit of shooting, the caster should use spells to solve the opponent far away, rather than hand-to-hand combat with an elemental swordsman.
The man in black next to him was still lying on the ground, and was grabbed by Merlin and hit his head several times, and he had to wait a little longer to wake up, so Merlin stood up, came to the side of the man in black, and reached out to uncover the black cloak that only half of the man in black had left on his head.
After fighting with the man in black for so long, Merlin still hasn't seen each other's appearance clearly.
The black cloak was removed, revealing a head of partially burnt blond hair and a scorching stench.
"It's a pity for such beautiful hair. ”
Merlin shook his head slightly, praising this beautiful long hair, but it was a pity that such a beautiful long hair was directly burned by the small fireball released by Merlin just now, and the original golden long hair also became a little black and mushy, which was particularly weird.
The man in black was lying on his side on the ground, his hair covering his appearance, and Merlin gently brushed the hair from his face to see the appearance of the man in black.
"Huh?"
Merlin's eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes instantly became sharp.
"Himea?"
The man in black lying on the ground was actually Ji Ya, who taught history class.
Merlin still remembers that even the little fat man Gut used the strength of the family to find Ji Ya's exact identity, but he didn't expect to meet Ji Ya here now.
And Ji Ya's performance just now is not as simple as an ordinary teacher.
Just as Merlin was guessing what Ji Ya had to do with Old Man Aita, Ji Ya let out a soft snort in her nose and was about to wake up.
Merlin stood up and took a step back, staring at Kia.
After a while, Merlin heard Ji Ya's breathing a little short, so he smiled faintly: "Don't pretend, why don't you open your eyes when you're already awake?"
Hearing Merlin's words, Ji Ya on the ground really opened his eyes, looked at Merlin, and said with a very calm expression: "Wilson Merlin? ”
Ji Ya was about to struggle to stand up, but Merlin raised his hand, and then a fireball appeared out of thin air and slammed directly into the floor next to Ji Ya.
"Bang".
The fireball hit the floor and exploded directly, blowing a large hole in the wooden floor, and black smoke was still emitting from it.
"Don't play tricks, or the next time this fireball will explode on you. ”
Merlin directly warned Ji Ya with his actions, after a month of hard practice in spiritual meditation, his mental power has improved somewhat, and more importantly, his control of the fireball technique is also more exquisite, and there will be no more situations where he can't control the fireball.
