"So what's the situation now?"
Panting and wiping the sweat from his forehead, Hongshan Taoist finally ran out of the last corner of the street before his physical strength was about to run out. The figures who had been chasing Duan Qing's footsteps to this place followed him one after another.
In front of the huge wave formed by the surge of energy, he stopped in place, dumbfounded: "Can anyone explain it to me?"
He pulled up his Taoist robe and blocked the energy flow from his body with the gray-white breath he waved: "Did something unexpected happen again?"
"Sorry, we are in class."
The shock wave formed by the powerful aura that could not be suppressed then erupted in the center of the alley in front, and together with the figure of a certain gray-robed magician, it blasted towards the direction of the Hongshan Taoist, and the whole body protected his head and hands.
Duan Qing, who was with him, also revealed the golden light in his arms, and wiped his chin with the back of his raised hand: "The purpose of this class is to show some alchemical techniques, and..."
"Small skills that are not of this world can bring huge power."
He said these words in a heavy voice, and at the same time he put his hands raised in front of himself. The golden light surrounding those hands then transformed into a tree with emerald green leaves just before the next wind blade was about to approach.
Shape: "Life is made—"
"Mountain of Gold!"
The golden light stretched rapidly in the air, gradually forming a golden light shield with Duan Qing as the center. The seemingly weak light shield did not seem to be broken in front of those wind blades, but instead made a violent vibration.
Bounced them around: "What kind of spell is this?"
"Any alchemist is also a master of magic theory."
Shaking his head slightly, Duan Qing, who was hidden behind the light barrier, then smiled at the middle-aged magician floating in the sky: "In our eyes, there is no magic that we cannot release.
, as long as enough conditions are gathered together, everything will become possible for release and construction.”
"The core of the problem often lies in the conditions themselves." He raised his hands in the air, and the voice hidden behind the magic light shield also became slow and steady: "For alchemists, the materials needed to meet the needs of alchemy
The activation conditions are really too harsh.”
"Is that golden light in your hand your so-called condition?" It became stable in the air again, and Sherman's gloomy voice came from the air again: "What kind of ghost alchemy is this?"
"An alchemy that can temporarily purify elements."
Taking two steps towards the air where the opponent was floating, the smile on Duan Qing's face became much more obvious: "For example... as long as the purity of the earth element is increased, the magician can release an element that is stronger than an iron plate.
Walls, although they are difficult to form a substantial shape, but their lazy elements themselves-"
"It's the best protective spell."
He pushed forward with both hands, stretching the golden light shield that was constantly forming in front of him a little bit forward, and then pushed the wind blades and ice arrows that were constantly hitting the surface of the golden light shield together with the clanging sound of the ice arrows bouncing off one after another.
Every corner of this street: "Look, what a beautiful gold color."
"This is the primary color of the earth element."
After muttering these words, Sherman once again distanced himself and muttered to himself, stopping his hands that had been casting spells: "Impossible, you can actually... do this.
…”
"I don't quite understand what you are doing now."
Moving slightly closer, Master Hongshan appeared behind Duan Qing with his head pierced: "Do you have the advantage now? Those golden lights on your hands..."
"Shh, don't talk nonsense."
The veteran's inquiry was interrupted with a boo. Duan Qing, who was still staring ahead, blocked the opponent's approach: "I sacrificed a lot of experience points to block that guy.
Here, don't let him see any flaws."
"Experience value?"
His eyes widened slightly, and the originally solemn expression of Master Hongshan became a little strange: "Hey, what are you talking about? Can you explain it a little bit-"
"I don't have time to explain." Still no intention of looking back, the golden light brought out by Duan Qing raising his hands still kept shining in the mid-air in front of him: "You only need to know that these highly pure
The energy of the earth element is what I can use to burn my life... Hey."
"If you don't come up with some real materials, how can you really block an opponent of this level?" He let out a deep chuckle after saying this: "Do you really expect me to use this all-powerful thing on my body?"
Is one robe worth a hundred?"
"So why did we bring the situation to this point?" Old Taoist Hongshan shouted angrily: "Old Taoist, before I even figured out the cause and effect, you two turned me into an enemy of the Violet Tower——
"
boom!
A heavy piercing sound suddenly appeared at the feet between Duan Qing and Hongshan Lao Dao, sending the words still echoing between them flying to both sides. Duan Qing, who fell to the ground due to the violent shock, was surrounded by him.
The golden light then disappeared into the increasingly cold air together with countless ice spikes that appeared out of thin air on the ground: "Fixed-point casting?"
"Your golden magic shield doesn't seem to be omnidirectional." Then Sherman's deep laughter came from the distant air: "No, it's better to say... you don't seem to be able to control these high-level elemental energies at all.
"
"After all, it's not my own energy. It's already good to be able to use it to this point."
Gritting his teeth, he slowly climbed up from the ground. Duan Qing, who had lost the golden light, then raised his hands again. The branches and leaves formed by the emerald green light band entangled between his hands suddenly burst into flames with some strange power.
Disappear, and then transform into bright red lines representing flames: "Earth elements are lazy by nature, so I just need to place them there, but..."
"These next naughty little guys are beyond our control!"
He swung forward, and his outstretched arms flew through the hot air as a potion bottle was thrown. The bright red flames that were about to expand and explode in his arms then followed the path drawn by the potion in the air.
Li abandoned the original chaos and drilled out along the arc towards the air where Sherman was in the distance: "Fusion potion! Catalytic potion!"
"Mixed Alchemy - Elemental Channel!"
Like a fuse about to ignite, the dancing flame energy then gathered around the arc into dazzling balls of flame light. The balls of different sizes were like stars in the night sky.
That direction kept extending forward, and finally as the bottle of potion was gradually exhausted, it hung under the clear sky in front of the middle-aged magician. It seemed that he saw the power of these energies, and originally wanted to continue to activate it.
Sherman, who was attacking, slowly lowered his raised palm. He erected two crystal-colored ice walls in front of him, and then shook his hand as if he felt it was inappropriate.
Brain: "No, that's not right."
"This is not compression of energy, this is clearly..."
The next moment, his figure suddenly disappeared, and the scene that seemed to burn through the space was followed by the sudden spread of the red light balls hanging in the air like firecrackers, swallowing up the entire airspace there in an instant: "...
Wow! What, what did you do?"
"Just summoned some fire elements."
With the figure of the veteran rolling to the corner of another alley, Duan Qing got up panting: "The fire element is the most turbulent element among the four elements, and its aggressiveness is also the strongest. As long as you give them
With just the slightest crack, they will break through the barriers of space on their own, and then..."
"Burn everything."
He looked at the red sky above his head and slowly pressed his back against the wall: "This is not an attack that ordinary people can withstand, nor is it a disaster that ordinary people can solve. That Sherman just now
You should have left that airspace, otherwise..."
"Perhaps it will be burned into large pieces of ashes just like the air."
The mature and deep female voice then echoed in the ears of Duan Qing and Hong Shan Lao Dao. Accompanied by it, a curly-haired woman wearing a gorgeous purple robe suddenly appeared in the air, floating above the two people.
She seemed to turn a blind eye to the blazing flames burning around her, and threw the body of a middle-aged magician she was holding on the top of the house nearby: "It seems that she can't breathe because of the burning of the air...
Poor Sherman, I told him to be careful."
"Purple, purple, purple, lord of violets."
Raising his arms and pointing at the female figure standing in the flaming sky, Master Hongshan shouted loudly: "Why are you here? No, no, that...we...ah hahahaha, we have no intention of offending you...
…”
"The whole city is under the watchful eyes of me and the Violet Tower, why can't I appear here?"
Arriving in front of them with flying steps, the curly-haired woman known as the Lord of Violet turned around and kept gesticulating in the air. Dark purple runes were followed by large and small magic circles that appeared out of thin air in the flames.
, slowly wrapped up this burning hell-like scene: "But... I really didn't expect to directly summon the alchemy of the fire element field."
"You're doing well, little guy." She lowered her head and looked at Duan Qing's face with interest: "If you weren't doing something that made me angry, I would have looked at you differently.
"
"...Before my last visit to you, I had a lingering question."
Duan Qing, who did not show any joy on his face, stood up against the wall and asked in a low voice: "Is that woman named Maggie Salaka really the one you took in?"
"Why do you ask that?"
Her fingers kept moving around her cheek, and Violet's eyes slowly squinted: "Is there something wrong?"
"Your attitude."
Duan Qing's eyes became darker and darker, and he stopped smiling. His attention stayed for a moment on the place where Maggie fell not far away from him: "Although you will pay enough to the adventurer who returns the woman every time.
compensation, but you have no intention of continuing to take good care of her, including the one I completed before... My request for a meeting was later rejected by you."
"A powerful organization that was entrusted to take care of her has allowed that woman to escape many times - this alone is already unjustifiable." He looked at the superior Violet with questioning eyes: "Not to mention that you are still
A great magician who can watch the whole city, all the movements in the city should be invisible to you..."
"Do you think I didn't take this poor woman into my heart?" Violet's originally mature voice became a little more delicate: "Do you think we at the Violet Tower didn't take good care of her?"
"No, she seems to be in good spirits, and there are no scars on her body." Trying his best to calm his breathing, Duan Qing replied in a low voice: "But..."
"It's almost certain that you have other purposes for her."
Duan Qing puffed up his chest and looked up at Violet's towering body: "For example... you want to use her special identity in exchange for benefits that are more powerful than the Mages Council itself. What's the reason?"
As if being hit by Duan Qing's words, Violet's figure floating in the air suddenly became stagnant. She stared intently at the posture of the gray-robed magician holding his arms. After a while, she suddenly quietly
He raised his right hand: "..."
"Wait, wait a minute!"
A sudden voice then appeared in Duan Qing's ears, and along with it was Hongshan Taoist's sleeves hurriedly waving: "Old Taoist, I have no intention of taking her away! I, I, I, I have no intention of taking her away.
He is the enemy of the Lord of Violet, and those conjectures just now were all spoken by him alone..."
"Isn't it appropriate to give in now, Brother Dao?" Duan Qing smiled and shook his head: "You and I have been running for so long, and it was you who came up with the idea..."
"What's wrong with me? I never said anything like this."
Facing the increasing pressure coming from above, Master Hongshan twisted his neck and turned around: "Didn't I always follow you and want to persuade you to go back and protect His Highness the Prince? When did I say -
—”
"Didn't you just say that you would use a 'special mission' to compensate for my losses?"
Duan Qing blocked the opponent's excitement with one sentence, and Duan Qing assumed a fighting posture: "Why, isn't this the mission?"
"I, that's not what I meant... uh."
He stood there with his mouth open for a long time. The Hongshan Taoist didn't say his next word of defense for a long time. His hesitating expression was completely swallowed up by the large radiance that lit up the alley, and he was swallowed up at the same time.
What's more, Duan Qing's face rushed to him: "We've already reached this point, why are we still standing there?"
"Run quickly." (To be continued)
