Chapter 17 This must be the power of the devil, the flames from hell!
Could it be that all the efforts of myself and others were in vain?
Under Buck's gaze, sparks soon filled the entire venue!
[Holy Word - Shield]
After breaking free from the influence of [Soul Scream], Aaron immediately cast a protective spell.
A pure white shield of light appeared in the void in a semicircular shape, with bits of sparks falling on it, immediately corroding holes in the shield.
Can a mere magic remnant that has been weakened a hundred times possess such power?
If the giant fireball had hit him directly, Aaron was sure that he would not be able to block it!
Just as he was surprised, a series of extremely shrill screams rang out in the castle. Aaron turned his head and looked over, and he was stunned where he stood.
Compared to the priests who practiced divine arts, the guards had not yet recovered from the impact of [Soul Scream], and sparks had already attached to their armor, shields, bows and crossbows, as well as exposed limbs and faces.
The horror of white phosphorus fire was revealed the next second. The weak flames began to spread rapidly after coming into contact with the substance. Large holes were burned in the leather shoulder pads and gloves. The yellow-white flames seemed to be attracted by flesh and blood, and penetrated directly into the skin below.
“Ah!” A shield soldier desperately slapped his chest, trying to put out the gradually spreading white phosphorus flames. However, the result of doing so was that his arm was also ignited. In a few breaths, half of his body was lit up like a torch...
The companion beside him was in even worse condition. Sparks of fire fell directly into the gaps in his armor. The heat of over a thousand degrees made him scream. He used both hands to forcibly tear off his armor, and then put his right hand into his body, and unexpectedly pulled out a bloody, flaming mass of flesh...
Blood, flesh and corpses are the best nutrients for white phosphorus flames, and the fire spreads rapidly.
The burning sea of fire, the billowing white smoke, the soldiers with distorted and horrific deaths, this scene was like hell descending on earth...
"Devil, this must be the devil's power, the flames from hell!"
Such a horrific scene made the elite Nordland guards completely collapse. The first-level divine spell [Eliminate Fear] had completely lost its effect. A priest who was lucky enough to escape the flames screamed at the top of his lungs, threw away the scepter in his hand, and fled without looking back...
Johnny and others were also stunned. They almost forgot that Lin En had told them to hold their breath and use magic to get oxygen from the air.
"What kind of magic is this?" Buck shuddered deeply. He only needed to get a little closer to feel the pain as if his bone marrow was burned.
"This is the fireball technique. You all know how to use it, right? I just improved it a little bit!" Lin En also noticed the astonished looks of the crowd, so he explained.
This is called slightly?
Buck's expression became very strange. He felt that Lin's understanding of this word might be different from his.
Johnny was somewhat skeptical whether Lynn had already broken through that barrier and become a formal wizard.
But Lin En had only been exposed to magic for half a year, so this was a bit too exaggerated...and their teacher Kelu had always been poor, so how could he have so much money to buy a source of magic power.
Compared to the complicated minds of Johnny and Buck, Barton's ideas are very simple. It turns out that these wizard apprentices can be so powerful when they unite!
Patton even felt that as long as everyone worked together, dealing with the Vatican's pursuit would not be that difficult.
Just as he was thinking about it, a dazzling white light lit up from a distance, broke through the barrier of flames, and attacked the group of wizard apprentices.
The distracted Patton only saw his brother Buck talking to him anxiously, and then he felt as if his body was knocked away by a powerful impact force. His thin body was torn apart in mid-air, and the whole person rolled several times in the air, and then fell to the ground like a rag doll, and was silent in an instant.
The sudden change froze the expressions on Johnny and others' faces. Buck's face gradually became distorted and he shouted at the top of his lungs.
"No, Patton!"
Lin En took action the moment the white light appeared. Twelve [Magic Missiles] surrounded him, drawing strange arcs in the air and shooting towards the end of the corridor.
In the end, more than a dozen magic missiles were blocked by an invisible wall, and only the ripples that appeared when they collided could be seen...
Lin En's heart suddenly sank, his eyes fixed on the other side of the sea of fire. He knew that the person he had been waiting for had finally appeared, and his strength was far more terrifying than he had imagined!
Suddenly, a melodious hymn sounded in the castle. An invisible force gradually enveloped the entire place, and a light rain began to fall in the closed room!
This is exactly the three-ring magic - [Hymn of Life]!
The green raindrops contained extremely powerful divine power, and the terrifying fire that seemed to come from hell was gradually suppressed!
The endless white phosphorus fire that almost burned everything was fading quickly, and Anruk, wearing a white gilded robe, walked in slowly.
"Your Majesty Bishop!"
Aaron, who had the fastest reaction on the field and also managed to escape the coverage of the sparks, shouted excitedly, but there was a hint of resentment and hatred hidden in his words.
The timing of Anluik's appearance was so clever that Aaron could not guess that the bishop had been paying attention to this place.
It was obvious that he and the elite guards of Nordland were just tools to test the other side's strength and trump cards!
Aaron's heart sank. He knew that after this matter was over, as the on-site commander, he would definitely be severely punished.
Anluik ignored Aaron and looked around at the guards on the ground, nearly half of whom were dead or injured and whose wills were completely crushed. Then his pupils shrank slightly, because the flame that had been extinguished showed signs of rekindling immediately after the divine spell [Hymn of Life] ended!
This is white phosphorus fire. It will never stop as long as the oxygen in the air is not exhausted and there are objects that can burn!
"Don't fight anymore, retreat!"
After the feint attack of [Magic Missile] failed, Lin En made his choice without hesitation.
The previous giant fireball spell that took more than five seconds to cast had consumed most of the white phosphorus he had created, and the remaining ones were not enough to defeat the bishop who was casting powerful magic in front of him.
Johnny and White Dove were also very aware of the horror of Anruk. Even though they were extremely sad about Patton's death, they knew that the only way to survive was to escape.
However, Buck, who had lost his brother, went mad at this moment. He opened his mouth and let out an angry roar. He grabbed a relatively intact body of a guard on the ground and used it as a shield, then rushed towards Anluk.
Chapter 18: Praise Ella——【Light of the Holy Spirit】
"Don't be impulsive, come back, Buck!" Johnny shouted loudly.
Buck didn't care and pounced on him with a ferocious look on his face.
"Praise Ella - [Holy Light Shock]!" Anluk opened his mouth slowly, and the first move he made was a second-ring divine spell.
The dazzling white light lit up again, and the corpse that was placed in front of him as a shield was directly turned into a ball of blood mist. The terrifying impact force caused by the aftermath easily blasted Buck away.
Anluik raised his scepter and was about to continue casting a spell to kill him, but at the critical moment, the white dove opened its mouth again.
The sharp, piercing scream was like the sound of death coming from hell. Anluk's movements paused, but only for a moment.
【Touch of Fire】
[White Phosphorus - Fireball]
Lynn and Johnny, who had covered their ears in advance, took this opportunity to save the situation at the same time, using the most powerful magic they knew. Two scorching flames rushed towards Anluik at the same time, forcing the archbishop to stop attacking and switch to protective magic.
Three-ring magic——【Holy Barrier】!
An invisible barrier stood in front of Anluik, easily resisting the invasion of the fire flow, but the white phosphorus flame was attached to it, slowly but steadily corroding the surface of the invisible barrier.
Roar!
Buck, who had just been severely injured and fell to the ground, stood up again, his pupils were bloodshot, and the beastly characteristics of his body became more and more obvious.
At this moment, Buck was like a giant bear standing up, rushing straight into the burning sea of fire, and his hair and clothes were soon stained with white phosphorus flames.
The pain of being burned by thousands of degrees of heat is enough to make a person collapse, but Buck didn't care. The moment he used the magic of transformation with the ability of a wizard apprentice, the process of beast transformation could no longer be reversed. Moreover, it would be impossible for him to break Anluk's protective magic by relying on his own strength alone!
"Johnny, Carl, you go first. I want to stay and avenge Patton!" Buck roared and slapped the [Holy Barrier] in front of him.
Ripples appeared on the invisible barrier, and Anluik cast a spell to blast Buck away.
"Let's go!" Lynn looked at Buck deeply and said without hesitation. The other party was covered with white phosphorus and there was no hope for him.
After knocking Buck away, Anluik directly blocked the only exit. Having lost so many people, he naturally would not let Lin En and others go easily.
"Repent to the great Lord, believers of the devil..." Anluk raised the bishop's scepter in his hand and chanted loudly.
“Praise Ella——【Light of the Holy Spirit】!”
The dazzling light waves spread out in a semicircle with the scepter as the base point. It was impossible to resist or avoid it because the range of the magic covered most of the side hall!
However, Lynn is definitely not someone who leaves no way out!
In fact, before entering the side hall, he had already prepared a plan for escape in case of crisis!
Lynn, Bai Ge and Johnny pressed their hands to the ground almost at the same time.
Zero Ring Magic——[Primary Material Deconstruction Technique! 】
The solid floor cracked instantly, and three fine cracks continued to spread like a spider web, and finally connected together. Before the terrifying white light arrived, the ground under the feet of several people had already collapsed...
The missed [Light of the Holy Spirit] flew over the collapsed hole and hit the wall behind it. A series of explosions soon sounded in the castle.
After the smoke and rubble settled, Anluk's expression turned ugly as he looked at the collapsed hole in the side hall.
"Roar!"
A hoarse roar came from the side.
Because he was knocked away before, Buck was not within the range of the [Light of the Holy Spirit]. However, at this moment, he no longer looked like a human being. He had turned into a sturdy giant bear, with white phosphorus flames covering his skin. White bones could be vaguely seen under the burnt flesh and blood.
Even so, Buck still rushed forward with his obsession for revenge.
Anluk frowned, he had no time to waste on a dying wizard apprentice, he stretched out his hand, the collapsed sand and stones quickly piled up, and together with the broken armor on the ground, they formed two three-meter-high huge stone statues.
This is the second ring magic - [Summon the Spirit Guardian]
After the two stone statues were assembled, they separated. One of them waved its fist and knocked down the giant bear Buck, while the other one jumped directly into the cave where the ground collapsed...
……
"Fortunately, this place is not too high!"
Then, using the falling rocks as a buffer, Lin En successfully broke through the ground with the help of the [Basic Material Deconstruction Technique] performed by the three of them, and directly reached the basement of the castle.
Lynn looked around. This place looked like an armory. There were a large number of weapons and swords piled on the surrounding racks. In addition, there were many empty boxes, which were probably where the treasures were placed before, but they were obviously taken away when the castle owner escaped.
After confirming the surrounding environment, Lin En immediately focused his attention on his two companions.
Johnny's condition was still good, but his magic power was greatly consumed. However, Bai Ge was different. She used [Soul Scream] twice in a row. Even though she was an extremely rare psychic, she couldn't even stand steadily.
"Johnny, how far is it from here to the underground canal?" Lynn asked.
"Follow this road and keep going. We will arrive in three minutes at most." Johnny reached out and lifted the pigeon up. After hesitating for a moment, he quickly made up his mind. "We can split up and you can take the pigeon while I lead Anluk away..."
Johnny knew very well that they could not run faster than Anruk, and if they continued like this they would be caught sooner or later.
Although she had consumed a lot of magic power in the previous battle, she was able to cast two more high-level first-level magics with the help of [Magic Hand], which could delay some time...
The silver-gray-haired witch lowered her head, her rosy lips bitten with blood. She had promised her mentor Kelu that she would bring everyone back to the wizard's land safely.
