Chapter 138: Chaos (Below)
Dakuru's face was already streaming with tears at this moment, and his mouth kept muttering words. If you listened carefully, you would find that he repeated only one sentence: "This is a divine artifact! This is a divine artifact!"
Although the sudden appearance of this totem, the crisis has not been lifted. We are facing a powerful undead mage at the peak of his strength. Even if we join forces, we cannot resist him. Each of us knows that all we can do is to bring out all our resources to fight against him, in order to delay his pace and wait for reinforcements to arrive.
Mishu apparently also understood our idea, and the great enemy who would come after him to defeat him at any time, Checrou Roy, the first person of the Mage Guild. As long as he arrived here, he would be finished, with no chance of turning over a new leaf. Mishu immediately unfolded a large-scale undead magic after some tentative probing earlier. I saw him muttering to himself, although I didn't know what kind of magic it was, but I also knew it wasn't anything good. A magic that requires a high-level magician to chant for a long time is not something we can resist, no need to guess.
A black light gathered from the void and converged on Mitsu's hand, forming a black sphere. The sphere grew larger as more black light gathered.
Lyle's face had already changed, he anxiously shouted: "Mishu wants to kill us all at once, this is a super powerful magic called 'Death Light', either we stop him from casting now or we turn around and run away now, if the magic is completed, everything will be over!"
Dakuru held one hand on the ground, and with the other hand waving, two huge wolf souls appeared beside him. The two wolf souls were clearly visible, their sharp teeth gleaming with a cold light. Dakuru pointed his hand, and the two giant wolf souls charged towards Mishi.
The howling wolves shook the sky, and those sharp teeth were about to bite Misha, but a sudden change occurred. The two wolf souls were blocked by an invisible layer of air just two meters away from Misha, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't get in. They circled anxiously on the ground for several laps, then repeatedly charged at the invisible barrier.
Mi Xiu opened his slightly closed eyes, and with his right hand, he separated two small balls from the black light sphere gathered in his left hand. He threw them at the ferocious wolf soul, and the black light spheres silently exploded on top of the wolf soul's head. The two giant wolf souls were immediately blown to smithereens. Meanwhile, Dakuru, who had cast the spell, spat out fresh blood, collapsed to the ground, and even the Great Earth Totem was knocked back into its original form.
The earth rumbled and shook, a gigantic vine with a thickness of over three meters burst out of the ground. The vine was covered in sharp thorns and continued to rise from the earth until it reached a height of twenty or thirty meters before stopping. It twisted and turned in mid-air like a giant snake, then came crashing down towards Misha with a loud "whoosh", its impact so powerful that I could feel its force even from where I stood on the other side.
A loud "boom" sound, the giant vine smashed down to within a meter of Mitsu's head, but suddenly seemed to be blocked by something and slid to one side, instead hitting several undead mages who were casting spells at us with all their might, causing them to splatter blood everywhere. We took a closer look, those people were instantly turned into minced meat by the vine, but Mitsu was still calmly continuing to cast his spell, as if he hadn't been affected in the slightest.
"Don't bother, I've already tried. Even this broken dagger of mine can't break through his magical shield's defense, it's almost invincible. Let's think of a way to escape quickly." Evan and Xi appeared beside us now.
The magical eye of Mitsu across the way is almost complete, Lelouch's face turned pale as he said: "It's over, we're all going to die here, it's too late to escape now!"
Everyone's face changed upon hearing his words, and Evan said somewhat despondently: "I didn't think that we would die in this place? It's not worth it, is this magic really so formidable?"
Lei Luo Ken nodded and said: "You'll know soon enough. Within a three-mile radius, nothing can survive."
I smiled and said: "Come on everyone, gather around me and stand together, quickly!"
Xī lù yí huò de shuō: "Yà lì kè nǐ yào zuò shén me?"
Translation:
Xi Lu said in confusion, "Alec, what are you going to do?"
I didn't answer, but urged: "Faster, closer to me, the tighter the better, let's have a fight!"
Several people didn't have time to think carefully, and stood as I said. At this moment, I had already seen that the black light in Misuzu's hand had formed a huge ball of light. Misuzu gently pushed forward, and the ball of light flew out!
At that moment, I used all my magical power to activate a short-distance instant movement. The people around me moved without warning to Mitsu's side. At the same time, the light ball exploded at our original position. When we opened our eyes, within a radius of several kilometers from where we originally stood, only a black land was left. This blackness was the kind that had lost its vitality. In other words, except for a two-meter range around Mitsu, everything with vitality in the surrounding area instantly disappeared.
Simultaneously transporting so many people in an instant, even if it's a very short distance, has drained all my magical power. I only had time to take one glance at the scene before me and almost fell down with my face pressed against Mithra's ugly mug. My eyes can still see, but trying to move even a finger is almost impossible. If Mithra wanted my life now, I reckon he'd just need to poke his sharp fingernail into my throat and I'd immediately leave this world.
But Mitz seemed to be frozen in place as well, his pale face staring at the few people tightly surrounding him with a look of utter bewilderment, he couldn't fathom how we had suddenly dodged his magic and escaped into his protective barrier, appearing right before his eyes.
Mi Xiu's two dry hands tightly covered his face and shouted loudly: "Impossible! What's going on? This can't be!"
Frey and Dakuru jumped out of the outer circle at the same time, dispersing in all directions, while Xiluo also pulled me away from this terrifying undead mage. Only Evan's dagger appeared on Misha's neck, and a huge wound was lightly cut open.
Mi Xiu fell back slowly with confusion and bewilderment, his fingers still pointing in my direction. I thought he must be wondering what kind of magic I used to break through his fatal blow.
I fell powerlessly into Xiluo's soft embrace, watching Mixiu fall to the ground. It wasn't that I didn't want to tell him, but I had exhausted my magical powers and now didn't even have the strength to speak. In my heart, I let out a faint sigh - a powerful being on the verge of surpassing a magic guide's abilities had fallen like this... it was truly a regrettable thing.
A wave of boundless fatigue came over me, and I had already faintly heard the sound of people in the distance, as if I still heard Leilo excitedly shouting his teacher.
I'm finally safe! That was my last thought before I sank into deep darkness.
