Chapter 2862 - 1357: The Crude Kill Trap
"I don’t understand!"
Scarlett Disel, with her petite figure swirling with gray and white qi force, gritting her teeth almost to breaking point, struggled to speak while pouring strength into the "Scenery" on her arm, "Are we assassinating a high-level mage, or are we being hunted by a high-level mage group!!"
Not far behind her, the leader of "Bee Sting," with a body flowing with crimson aura, had almost transformed into a phantom, moving at an unbelievable speed with a high frequency. The longsword in his hand stirred a storm of blood qi in the air, constantly dispelling the violent wind element of that intangible matter.
And the other nineteen "Bee Stings" stood in the middle of the two, desperately using various means to resist the almost pervasive large-scale magical attacks.
The shield generators had already broken down two sets, and the engineer in the team was exhausted to the point of almost sticking his tongue out, now setting up the sixth set of powered armor, while the Lizardman Shield Guard and Beastman Berserker protecting on both sides could only help cover through the burst of qi force in this highly expensive, low-cost effectiveness way. Although their expressions were unseen, their actions were already filled with fatigue.
The Shaman Priest with Highlander blood tried vainly to resonate with the elements, attempting to slow down the overwhelming offensive from the opposition but with little effect. He could clearly feel the elements heard his call but couldn’t drive them to cooperate, as the five expressionless mirror clones emanating faint elemental light were far more favored by the elements than himself. This was obvious because they were pure elemental creations, holding those magic wands full of coercion.
Compared to the Shaman Priest’s gentle negotiation in elemental resonance, the forcibly integrated multiple attribute elements from each real mirror clone were far more aggressive.
The Thief and Ranger in the team had been utterly incapacitated, even though Double Leaf hadn’t used any restriction magic, and even ignored their existence, the arcane eyes shining like stars in the air kept warning them, should they leave the small haven in this ravaging storm, the girl’s perfectly corner-less attacks would tear them into apologies.
"Clearly, we’re indeed only facing a high-level mage."
Finally, completely dismantling the pervasive "Vacuum Ripple," the leader of "Bee Sting" staggered next to Scarlett, setting in a double-handed sword holding posture as if the one-handed sword was immensely heavy, answered with a bitter smile, "But that doesn’t conflict with her unleashing the power of a mage group."
Scarlett spat blood onto the ground, her flushed little face fiercely resisting the continuously pressing "Square Stone," while distressedly looking at her new armor gradually showing cracks, gritting her teeth and complaining, "I am starting to regret it!"
"Regretting participating in this action?"
The relatively talkative man lightly laughed and asked, his longsword and the skin exposed to air gradually coated with a layer of blood glint, calmly saying, "On my side, there’s no room for regret. After all, our systems are different; the option of declining a mission simply doesn’t exist for us."
Scarlett laughed dryly, the "Scenery" on her arm suddenly burst out a vigorous lead-gray flash, unexpectedly pushing the now twice-layered "Guardian Stone" by Double Leaf up a full half a meter, then sharply said, "I just regret that I was so grateful for the substantial rewards before! Hey, you’ve been holding out for so long, can you manage or not?!"
"I can."
The man uttered a light shout, the longsword in his hand slowly lifted with a near slow-motion feel, yet pointed at the center of the "Square Stone" overhead in an instant. A vast crack spread on the "Square Stone" from the sword tip as the immense force driven by blood qi directly transmitted into this legion-strengthened magic, and in the next instant exploded, not only pulverizing the stone above the pair’s heads but also pushing away the subsequent stone, sending it plummeting towards Double Leaf’s location.
However, less than five seconds after the second "Square Stone" flew out, the earth elements constituting its existence crumbled directly, dissipating into the air as spots of pale yellow element mist.
In front of a spellcaster like Double Leaf, attempting to use her magic to counter the original form was simply a joke. The girl’s pinnacle control over magic and perfect mastery of spells allowed her to manipulate any magic she released with ease.
"It’s not going to work this way!"
Beads of cold sweat covered the delicate face under the helmet, Scarlett gasped for air, half-kneeling on the ground, pulled down part of the faceplate and gulped down a potion with a sharp taste (reminiscent of Huoxiang Zhengqi Water), muttered seriously, "She’s already preparing the next round of spellcasting, we’ll be worn out to death!"
Similarly consumed heavily, at this point supporting himself on his longsword to breathe heavily, the leader of "Bee Sting," finally recovering with difficulty, nodded slightly and said tiredly, "I know, but the target’s control over spellcasting rhythm is simply too good, there’s absolutely seamless continuity in her offensive, we have no way to forcefully charge."𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
