In an instant, the light spear of magic power spanned a distance of hundreds of meters. (Please search Bayi Chinese Net, the fastest updated novel website!) Richard gritted his teeth, ready for the horrific bombardment. He had blessed himself with a perfect defensive spell before, and he had just added to it. Now in front of Richard, there were six full force wall techniques overlapping each other. He is also blessed with a bouncy shield and a mage shield as a last line of defense.

Objectively speaking, Richard's response was correct. The Wall of Force is a versatile defensive spell with a dual resistance to both physics and magic. The Bouncy Shield and Mage Shield also neutralize magical energy, making the Missile Storm fearless of bombardment even when subjected to typical energy-based spells. When it comes to being attacked by pure magical energy, there's no better way to deal with it than these spells. Using eight spells to fend off one spell should theoretically be no problem.

But in reality, the Wall of Force shattered like a piece of paper. The arcane focus penetrated the six walls of force without even a moment's pause. There was a heavy disturbance in the air, and the fragments of the Force Wall Technique were scattered in all directions. Richard stammered as he watched the pillar of magic light come towards him. He didn't expect that after a few days of not seeing him, Curt's arcane focus would be reborn and increase its power several times.

It wasn't until it hit the elastic shield that the arcane focus exploded. Hundreds of tiny pillars of light flew in all directions, stirring up countless columns of water on the surface of the sea. The elastic shield is able to deflect the force field, and its special name brings unexpected effects. However, under the continuous onslaught of arcane focus, the elastic shield quickly reached its limit. It silently dissolved, leaving Richard in the second half of the arcane focus.

The mage's shield was more vulnerable than the Wall of Force, and a violent explosion was created. Curt sighed as the cloud of fire engulfed Richard. Even Ioham would not be unscathed after being bombarded head-on by Arcane Focus. This is a spell created by Dao purely for the purpose of destroying miรจ, and it is the crystallization of wisdom that ** master Jason spent his whole life to obtain.

As clouds of fire bloomed in the sky, huge waves rolled up on the sea. Curt activated the flying bracelet and skimmed across the foaming sea. He wanted Richard's body to remain intact, which would make it easier to recover the magic items on it. Curt understands very well that every ** master's magic book is precious. Their value cannot be measured in gold coins and are truly priceless.

But when Curt arrived in the expected area, he didn't have the slightest hint of magic. Curt hesitated for a few seconds, then cast a detection spell. In the vast area of spell detection, Curt found nothing. For a moment, he mistakenly thought Richard was still alive. However, after Curt had been in the trench for a few minutes, he was not attacked by Richard.

"The teacher didn't come out himself, he only sent a simulacrum to deal with you. โ€

Through the technique of communication, Griffin tells Curt the truth of the matter from a distance. With a wry smile on his face, he stood side by side with the smiling Adios. Ke Ting nodded, finally understanding what was going on. - Simulacrum is a level 8 spell that creates the caster's **. **Probably two-thirds of my strength.,When you destroy miรจ, it will be restored to magical energy.ใ€‚

So Curt immediately turned back and returned to the Black Pearl. Just now, a pirate ship desperately approached and started a broadside battle with the Black Pearl. Cameron fires a condescending round of arrows, and then Gordon, Frost Giant, and Bredor the Minotaur rush across the gangplank to take out the pirate ship along with the people and the ship. Bloom and Brado were particularly active, and they both had itchy hands for a long time, but they couldn't find the enemy.

When Curt landed on deck, Bloom swung his sledgehammer and smashed the pirate ship in two. He is more than six meters tall after the human reduction has been lifted, and he stands on a pirate ship as if he were standing on a small sampan. Several pirates who were still alive hurriedly jumped into the water, and their fighting spirit had long been shattered. The question now for the pirates is whether to surrender or swim all the way back to a distant base.

Curt waved his hand to stop Cameron, who was shooting the pirates as targets. The rest of the work is insignificant, and it would be better to leave it to Raphael. The pirate ship captured by Adios was undamaged and could have been used as Raphael's trophy. Doing so would serve to reassure the sailors, who needed their scrappy spirits to help him sail.

For Rafael, the outcome of the battle was completely acceptable. He paid only some gunpowder and cannonballs in exchange for a good warship. What's more, Curt's table is truly amazing. Raphael knows how stupid it is to convict a ** division at sea where there is no rule of law to speak of. So he wisely swept up the snow in front of the door and did not disturb Curt, who had other important matters.

Meanwhile, Curt was sitting in his room relaxed. He was flanked by Randall and Adios, and across from him stood a somewhat nervous Griffin. To prevent seasickness, Randall floats in mid-air, with a rope tied to the edge of the bed around his waist. She covered her eyes with a silk scarf, leaving only her ears to come out, to tell if Griffin was telling the truth.

"Uh...... I want to surrender. โ€

After a long time, Curt didn't speak, and Griffin had to try to break the deadlock on his own initiative. He was uneasy under Curt's gaze, and he felt like he had been seen through. Because Curt is secretly using the power of the psyker to make a comprehensive assessment of Griffin. Although his mind-reading ability had been sealed by Naza, his instincts had become sharper. At face-to-face distance, Curt could even detect the flow of blood in Griffin's body.

"Hmmm......"

It was a long time before Curt nodded. He glanced at Adios, who was bored and ran to the bedside to look at the sea, and then said to the restless Griffin:

"You can leave the items and scrolls with your last name, and leave everything else to Gordon for safekeeping. Talk to Gordon and he'll tell you something about your past life. I welcome someone as capable as you, as long as you can live up to my trust. From now on, you're Gordon's partner. Work well for me and you will be rewarded. โ€

"Huh?"

Griffin froze in place, expecting to be subjected to harsh interrogation and even be blessed with some spells. Curt's approach was too simple and straightforward, which flattered Griffin. He stammered and half-stretched out his hand, wanting to say something more. But Curt stood up and walked out of the room, leaving only one sentence:

"Go to Gordon at once, you'd better get acquainted with him before you get there. โ€

"Obey ......"

Griffin scratched his head and decided not to argue. Randall duly removed the blindfold and watched as Griffin pulled out all the magic items on his body. Later, Randall reached out and took a milky pearl. Griffin looked heartbroken, but said nothing after all.

Gordon was both surprised and delighted by Curt's arrangement. He knew that Griffin was equivalent to the deputy that Curt had assigned to him, which showed that in Curt's mind, Gordon's status was still above that of the senior mage who had surrendered. On the bright side, Curt is alluding to the fact that he won't throw Gordon away just because he has more capable men. Of course, for Gordon, leading Griffin was also a test. High mages are much smarter than mercenaries, and it is not easy to get them to obey.

After much consideration, Gordon decided to welcome Griffin on an equal footing. He complied with the order to put away Griffin's belongings, and told him that he could always ask himself to pick them up if he had a proper reason. Gordon even brought in Cameron and Bloom for a small drinking party. During the casual conversation, Griffin learns about Cameron and Bloom's past. He began to congratulate himself on the fact that he had made the right bet, and that Curt was clearly a more respectable master than Richard.

It's up to Curt to take down Richard completely. โ€™

With this thought in mind, Griffin relaxed. He disarmed his psychological defenses and spoke freely with Gordon and others. As people who work hard from the bottom, they actually have a common language. Gordon and Cameron have a lot of anecdotes between mercenaries, and Griffin knows a lot of gossip between mages. They talked for hours, and they couldn't get enough of it.

At the same moment, thousands of miles away, Richard was lying on a comfortable bench. He squinted, not knowing how many times he was rewatching the battle record. With the simulacrum of the imagery, Richard was able to grasp the details of the entire battle. He tapped his fingers rhythmically on the handle, and finally stood up with a smile.

Richard seemed to be in a good mood, and he didn't care about losing the simulacrum, two students, and a strong pirate ally. Richard just paced with his hands behind his back and said to himself:

"An attack of pure magical energy, a completely native magical energy...... I see. Hehe, at best, it's just two spells below level seven. Really, I've been worried for so long. ...... We're not going to see each other again, Curt. Actually, you don't even have the qualifications to fight me, I really overestimated you before. โ€

Richard rubbed his fingers happily, causing a loose robe to appear on his body. He pulled up the hood with the Dark Crest attached to it and teleported to a corner of the Thousand Laws City. There, a living sacrifice was being held in an underground temple that could not see the sky. Richard stepped in proudly and announced to the dozens of worshippers and priests waiting there:

"Secretly said supreme, the destruction of the Thousand Law City is coming. Follow me and serve me, children. You will share in the joy of terror and death, and see for yourselves the enemies of the Lord of Darkness march to the end. โ€

"Yes, High Priest. โ€

The congregationals knelt down and worshiped Richard. Richard accepted it proudly, and then said to the priests standing beside him:

"Go, contact our allies. Sue them that Curt is a faceless one who is loyal to Eorham. Use all your power to destroy him and cut off Eoham's outstretched hand in the Thousand Laws!" )
