Volume 2 The Birth of the Demon King Chapter 132 Reckless Decision
During the battle just now, Emir was only concerned with showing the results of these days' training, so he couldn't think of a suitable way to crack Cones's invincibility for a while.
It wasn't until the barrier was in effect that he had enough to resist all magical attacks that he finally calmed down, and it didn't take long for him to think of a solution.
Now that Cones' body has become a state of water, it is true that no matter how powerful the attack is, it is useless, but what if it is evaporated with high temperatures?
Neither of them knew fire magic, and Emir suddenly thought of Lilith's dragon breath.
He couldn't help but smile wryly at the thought of this, because since the last time Blackpool Town was attacked by demons, he had rarely relied on Lilith's power anymore.
Although Lilith rarely participates in battles, which can ensure her safety to some extent, the dragon, as the strongest creature in the continent, will never be complacent about this kind of thing, not to mention, Lilith is very sensitive to this kind of thing because of her background.
So, with a hint of apology, Emir released Lilith from the ring.
A behemoth suddenly appeared on the battlefield, and Cornes forgot about it for a moment, and was taken aback.
"Hehe, I almost forgot, you still have a dragon."
"It's good to know, and then I'll let you taste the taste of dragon's breath." The emir said and commanded Lilith to attack.
"Still don't understand? In my current state, any attack is useless. โ
The Emil didn't respond, he wanted to see the embarrassed look on Cornes' face after being slapped in the face.
In the next second, a scorching flame suddenly enveloped Cornes, and he didn't realize that something was wrong at first, so in order to show that he was still invincible, and thus frustrate the emir's spirit, he actually took the blow head-on.
By the time he realized the gravity of the matter, it was too late, and his body began to evaporate at an extremely fast rate, and almost half of it turned into a state of mist.
He hurriedly used magic to restore the collapsed body tissues, but he couldn't stop the process of evaporation at all, and after a while, his whole body disappeared completely.
Seeing that Cornes was defeated by such a little trick, Ophelia was a little incredulous, and when Emile told her to think of a way just now, she thought it would be such a sophisticated tactic, but she just didn't expect it before.
"Hehe, I've been chattering, I thought it was so powerful, that's it?" Ophelia crossed her arms and said leisurely.
"Something is wrong, you can use your magic sense again." The emir suddenly said with a serious face.
โโฆโฆ What? โ
Ophelia could clearly sense a powerful magical reaction nearby, and she looked around, but couldn't find anything for a moment.
"Could it be that guy turned into vapour and survived?"
"Probably not, look there."
Emir pointed to a place more than a hundred meters away, only to see a black figure appear there, because it was too thin and weak, it was naturally difficult to detect.
"That's ...... Another Dark Knight? Ophelia muttered, but she quickly disproved the suspicion, for there was only one trace of the Dark Knight's magic all along.
"This breath is another Cornes, but how is this possible?"
Emir's face was solemn, he thought that what Cornes said just now was just a bluff, but he didn't expect that there was really a stand-in.
Next, the black figure inhaled a stream of water vapor into its body, and if I guessed correctly, the other party was devouring Cones, and as time passed, the black shadow transformed into Cones.
He originally had ten stand-ins at the same time, but only one was sent here to hunt down the emir and the others, while the others were all going to prepare for war.
Cornes didn't expect his stand-in to be defeated by the Emir, so he had no choice but to send another one.
Now this is a container that has been raised, as shrewd as Cornes, who will always leave a way back for himself, so when all the previous containers have changed into his appearance, he has to raise a new container.
At this moment, facing Cones, who had an unknown number of stand-ins, Emir couldn't help but feel a sense of powerlessness.
In this way, there are not just four Dark Knights, but more, how can this be fought?
"Let's think about it later, Cornes seems to be going to get serious." Ophelia snapped up.
The Emir hurried over and saw that Cornes had changed from a short old man to a burly, heavily armed man, and that he was preparing some kind of large-scale magic.
Because the image of the monster was restored, there was no need for a magic circle when Cornes released his magic, so the emir had no idea what he was doing or how large the scope of the attack was.
Cornes raised his massive magic sword, and a huge cloud of dark blue light swirled around it.
"Hmph, what a troublesome guy, I lost a valuable stand-in, so let you pay with your lives."
The emir didn't dare to slack off at all, and hurriedly used the kind of stealth barrier he had just used, which was designed to block magic, so he would definitely be able to prevent this move from Cones.
Immediately after, the water-attribute magic light cluster flew towards them, and its power was so great that even the ground was cut out of a ravine wherever it passed.
Fearing that one barrier would be too much to resist, the emir infused the barrier with more magic, and he created three of the same barriers at once, encircling himself, Ophelia, and the town behind him.
In the next instant, the light group came into direct contact with the barrier, but it really failed to prevent it, and the emir could clearly feel that the outermost barrier was collapsing.
It was as if the glass had been shattered, and after only a few seconds, the outermost barrier turned into countless shards of mana, and the strange thing was that these mana shards could even be absorbed by the light cluster, because that mass emitted stronger traces of mana.
"Damn, can't you stop it?"
Ophelia watched as the first barrier cracked, and the second gradually cracked, and suddenly became anxious like an ant on a hot pan.
However, at this moment, she noticed a problem, that is, when Cornes released this magic, his own mana level became very low, and most importantly, his current body was obviously not invincible.
So, without saying a word, she prepared to perform the Crimson Piercing, aiming directly at Cornes's head.
At this point, Cornes didn't notice Ophelia's actions at all, instead focusing all his energy on the emir.
His level of magic is very high, and the barrier he creates is particularly strong, if it weren't for Cornes's move that used a lot of magic power and almost hollowed himself out, his attack would still be blocked by the barrier.
So, when Ophelia's figure suddenly appeared in front of Cornes, he was startled again, and then instinctively tried to dodge the attack.
But it was obviously too late, because he suddenly realized that Ophelia's sword skill could not be dodged, so in the next moment, he was hit by the Scarlet Piercing again.
"Hmph, you're not dead now?"
"Poofโ"
As his body penetrated, Cones spat out a mouthful of blood.
Because of the experience of being evaporated by the dragon's breath just now, he no longer dared to become that "invincible state", so it was naturally difficult to escape the fate of being hit at this time.
However, although Cornes quickly lost his life reaction, the huge blue ball of light did not disappear, but continued to attack the two remaining barriers of the Emir.
Maybe it's because its owner is dead, and the light cluster has become a little unstable, but it has some kind of attacking instinct like a living thing.
"This is outrageous, even if the main body is not dead, at least the stand-in who released this magic is dead."
"Hehe, it's outrageous." The emir smiled wryly, and he had no choice but to continue to support the barrier.
Fortunately, he still has a lot of magic reserves in his body, and as long as Cornes doesn't send a stand-in over, he can still resist it.
Ophelia had no choice but to stand and watch, feeling agitated at the same time.
"It's alright, Ophelia, you'd better check the surroundings and make sure Cornes hasn't sent a new stand-in." Emir's forehead was covered with sweat, but he still spoke out to comfort her.
"No, I've confirmed, the traces of Cones' magic are completely gone."
"Really? That's good," the emir breathed a sigh of relief, as long as no one intervened, there was still a way to deal with the light cluster, and that was to use teleportation magic.
However, he still had concerns, because he didn't have a different space like Annie and could only transfer to the real world, but he didn't arrange the magic array as the end point in advance.
The only places in Blackpool Town that had been marked were the only places he could not transfer such a dangerous thing into the town.
But it was not an option to remain in such a stalemate, and each time the light broke through a barrier, it absorbed the magic of the fragments, thus becoming larger and more difficult to deal with.
Ophelia couldn't help but think that if only Anne were here, she could transfer the light to another dimension.
In the midst of her frustration, Lilith suddenly appeared in front of the emir, as if she was planning to help her shield her from the impact of the light.
It was this action that inspired the emir, who did not know how to stop the ball of light, but in general, it would disappear as soon as it hit the target.
It was clear that the target of the Light Regiment was none other than the Emir himself, what would happen if he took the blow head-on?
It was stupid, but when there was no other way, he had no choice but to do it.
Within a month, he had learned ten types of magic with Anne, healing, strengthening, defending, and attacking.
Therefore, in order to make the damage as low as possible after absorbing the attack of the light cluster, he decided to use several kinds of magic.
First of all, he strengthened his physique, increased his body's defense, and then maximized the power of healing, and in order to ensure success, he did not hesitate to sacrifice all the magic power in his body.
He didn't tell Ophelia about his decision, after all, everyone knew that this kind of behavior was dangerous, and the slightest mistake was tantamount to suicide, but there seemed to be no other choice at the moment.
So, after mentally preparing himself, he quietly stopped injecting mana into the barrier and let the huge ball of light smash towards him.
And in order to prevent hitting Lilith who was in his way, he used the ring to take her in advance.
In the next second, Emir was enveloped by a ball of light, however, after touching it personally, he realized that he was thinking too simply.
While this solution was theoretically possible, he overlooked the fact that the pain he was about to endure would not be lessened in the slightest, and that he would probably pass out halfway through, and that it would all be over.
