The hot flames formed air waves and spread around. In the center of the arena, even the air turned red. A deep pit appeared on the ground not far away. The dwarf Ha Jin was lying in it, his whole body was charred black, and he seemed to have completely lost consciousness.
"...The eighth round of competition is over, and the winner is Myrcella."
The underground arena of Nuoda was silent. As Mitchell announced the end of the game, Myrcella turned around and left neatly, wearing a clean red robe.
Below, a [Skull Castle] wizard quickly dragged the unconscious Ha Jin away.
"...What a terrifying strength!!" In the audience, the luster in Enzo's eyes flickered, and the strength Myrcela showed shocked everyone in the audience.
The battle just lasted less than five minutes, and everything was settled!
As a veteran conqueror wizard, Ha Jin couldn't even block three rounds and was defeated by Myrcella, who didn't even use a wand.
"Actually...so strong!?" Kelun'en's face turned pale, and there was a hint of horror in his eyes.
Even as proud as he is, he has to admit that the strength shown by Myrcella has gone beyond the scope of a first-level wizard. As one of the most brilliant ideas, [Blazing Sun Furnace] has the power to be called the strongest attack.
And this power is vividly displayed in Myrcella!
"Chip, compare the data between me and Myrcella and calculate the winning rate of the duel."
Enzo's eyes flashed, and he ordered in his heart. Using the data collected in the battle just now, the chip calculated the probability of victory or defeat in the duel between the two sides through simulation.
"Subject winning rate: 37.5%." Chip gave the answer.
"Only a one-third winning rate?" Enzo frowned slightly and sighed slightly in his heart. He was not too surprised by such a result.
The strength that Myrcella showed in the battle just now had given him enough shock.
"The ninth match, Corun vs. Millie."
As Mitchell announced again, the atmosphere of shock in the underground arena was broken. Corun took a deep breath and turned into lightning and stepped onto the center of the arena.
His opponent also comes from [Skull Castle] and is a female conqueror wizard.
There was not much difference in strength between the two sides in this battle, so it was extremely fierce. In the end, Column finally won the victory after paying the price of minor injuries.
Immediately afterwards, rounds of duels continued.
"The seventeenth match, Enzo versus Bistan."
As Mitchell read out two names again, it was finally Enzo's turn to come on stage. He raised his head and saw that his opponent was a black-robed wizard from [Skull Castle].
Both parties entered the venue and stood looking at each other.
"Enzo, I've heard of your name!" On the opposite side, Bistan spoke slowly, ": The person who won the coordinates for [Phantom of Crows] ten years ago is the only disciple of the second-level wizard Gustave.
"
"It's a pity that during the ten-year coordinate war, I had been promoted to an official wizard."
"Otherwise...I will definitely kill you with my own hands in a bloody fight!" Bistan's eyes were cold, with a trace of deep hatred flashing in his eyes.
Enzo raised his eyebrows, wondering where the other party's hostility came from.
"Hmph! When the three major organizations in the Dark Territory fought, Gustav almost killed half of the wizards in our Cavoz family. This debt will have to be settled sooner or later!" Bistan gritted his teeth.
"So you are a member of the Cavoz family." Enzo suddenly realized.
When the three major organizations started a war in the Dark Territory to compete for coordinates, Gustav, who was still a first-order wizard at the time, had a feud with the Cavoz family and killed twelve official wizards of the other party in a row. As a result, he became famous in the first battle and was promoted later.
A second-level wizard.
Although in the end, the war was forced to stop by the Northern Parliament, the hatred could not be eliminated.
Even if the three major organizations are now jointly developing the [World of Akiela], it is just an exchange of interests. Every member of the Cavoz family always remembers the blood feud in their hearts.
"Go down and admit defeat!"
Bistan raised his head and said arrogantly, "Or kneel down now and kowtow to me a few times. I can try to be as gentle as possible during the battle."
Enzo's face was expressionless, and the wand appeared in his hand.
He didn't care about the opponent's clumsy provocation. His eyes turned light blue, and while using the chip to scan the opponent's data, he turned on the combat assistance mode.
"Humph! Looking for death."
Bistan snorted coldly, took out a white bone wand, and lightly tapped it on the ground. The dark magic power suddenly spread around.
On the ground, pale skeletal hands poked out.
Summoned by Bistan's magical power, hundreds of skeleton soldiers appeared. Most of them held bone swords and shields, and some used longbows.
"Let me see what you're capable of!"
Bistan raised his wand, as if giving an order, and the skeleton warriors charged one after another and attacked Enzo.
In place, Enzo's face was calm.
The shadow under his feet turned into a long whip. As a skeleton soldier holding a bone sword approached, he whipped it up and beat the opponent into pieces.
brush!!
The shadow whip was swung flexibly, as if it had life. Under the control of Enzo's thoughts, it smashed the skeleton soldiers into pieces. In a moment, the ground was shattered into pieces.
Phew! Phew!!
At this time, several bone arrows were shot from a distance. With a thought in Enzo's mind, the shadow shield automatically appeared, blocking the attack of the bone arrows and making a dull sound at the same time.
"Death fog!"
Not far away, I saw that most of the skeleton soldiers had been cleared away. There was no surprise on Bistan's face. It was originally a probing attack to test the opponent's strength.
As Bistan whispered a spell, a black mist slowly condensed.
It was like a dark cloud and black mist rushing towards Enzo, swallowing up the surrounding space. Weird wails and screams sounded, like the roars of vengeful spirits.
"good chance!"
Seeing that the fog of death had swallowed up the target, Bistan's eyes lit up. He chanted obscure spells in a low voice, and blood-colored arms appeared in vain in the black fog.
Those bloody arms exuded a strange, ominous aura.
On the same spot, Enzo's feet and shoulders were grabbed by bloody arms. The ground suddenly became illusory, and the bloody arms seemed to drag Enzo into the abyss.
"The art of the phantom crow!" Enzo's eyes narrowed, and the light around him flickered.
Woohoo!
A sound like a crow's strange cry came from the fog of death, and then, Enzo, who was grabbed by blood-colored arms, suddenly became illusory and turned into crows and scattered.
"Phantom Crow Thousand Spirits?" Bistan frowned slightly, with a hint of solemnity in his eyes.
Although he is not a member of [Phantom Crows], it is impossible for Bistan not to have heard of the most powerful meditation method in the Dark Realm. Although [Phantom Crows] are not known for their attacks, they have weird abilities to create illusions and curses.
But it's even more of a headache.
Swish!
Illusory crows were hovering in the air. Bistan's eyes were solemn and he immediately used defensive witchcraft. The black energy around him formed a twisted barrier.
Suddenly, a cold feeling came from my shoulder.
Bistan was startled, and quickly turned around to look, only to see an illusory black crow, which had quietly penetrated into the body, like an invisible mist.
"Damn it!" Bistan gritted his teeth.
The surrounding environment began to change, like a melting oil painting, everything became extremely unreal, countless crows appeared in the sky, and the black color almost swallowed the entire world.
"It's an illusion..." A trace of determination appeared in Bistan's eyes, and then he raised his wand and stabbed his palm.
The severe pain woke him up, and the black crows gathering in the sky shattered, and the illusion around him seemed to explode in an instant, returning to the real world.
In the underground arena, Bistan stood there, his face a little pale.
"Dark fireball!" At this time, a cold voice sounded.
On the opposite side, Enzo is holding the Soul Bone Wand. The black fireball has been condensed. The elemental energy close to 25 degrees is already his strongest attack method at present.
boom!
The black fireball bombarded away, and Bistan's eyes suddenly opened wide. The twisted barrier made an overwhelmed sound under the attack of the dark fireball, and then shattered.
"Steel Stone Demon!!"
Bistan roared, and instantly summoned a steel stone demon. Its huge body blocked the attack of the Dark Fireball, but the remaining power still pushed him back several meters.
brush!
The next moment, Enzo disappeared in vain.
After launching Shadow Assault and Shadow Stealth at the same time, he was as fast as a ghost and rushed in front of Bistan almost instantly, his wand thrust out like a sharp sword.
puff!
The wand wrapped with magic power could easily pierce even rocks, but when it was pierced into Bistan's chest, it made a dull sound and could not penetrate flesh and blood at all.
"Asshole, I'm going to kill you!"
Bistan roared angrily, and finally used his natural witchcraft. The flesh and blood on his body seemed to be burning and turned into ashes, and energy like black flames wrapped around him.
"Devil transformation?" Enzo's eyes flashed and he quickly stepped back.
Through the data fed back by the chip, Enzo discovered that when Bistan was promoted to wizard, the innate witchcraft he solidified turned out to be a form of transformation witchcraft, and his transformed form was that of an abyss demon.
On the opposite side, Bistan has completed his transformation after using his natural witchcraft. At this moment, he has lost the form of a human wizard. There is no trace of flesh and blood in his body, only bones are left. A sharp horn grows on the top of his head, and an evil aura surrounds him.
.
Bladed Bone Demon, a demonic creature in the abyss!
This kind of demon is famous for its bone magic ability and has the talent to control the energy of death. It is an alternative and advanced life form of the skeleton soldier.
brush!
Bone Demon Bistan roared, his arms grew sharp bone blades, and then he swung forward violently, slashing out waves of air.
"Shadow shield." Enzo said softly.
The shadows condensed into a shield, blocking the attack. However, the next second, Bistan on the opposite side suddenly disappeared from the place, and he went nowhere.
Enzo frowned slightly, with a trace of solemnity on his face.
"Up above!" The rapid alarm sound of the chip in his mind came. Enzo did not hesitate, and immediately jumped back to dodge. A figure from the sky fell in vain, and the sharp bone blade hit the ground.
Rub rub rub rub!
On the ground, sharp white bones pierced out like bamboos and spread around, almost turning the entire arena into a forest of bones.
Shadow Wings appeared behind him, and Enzo flew into the air.
"Don't even think about escaping!" Bistan smiled ferociously, raised an arm, and shot out his finger bones like bullets, drawing arcs in the air.
"Soul power!"
Enzo shouted, and his mental power formed silver ripples, spreading around, and the finger bone bullets he shot fell one after another, making a crisp sound when they hit the ground.
"Dark extinguishing fireball!"
Immediately afterwards, in mid-air, Enzo waved his magic wand and threw a black fireball, which hit the ground and caused powerful damage, destroying the area where the bone spurs were formed.
"caught you!"
As soon as Enzo landed on the ground, Bistan attacked from behind and thrust out the sharp bone blade with force, but it did not feel like it was piercing flesh and blood. Instead, it felt like it was piercing a ball of air.
"Shadow body?" A trace of emotion appeared on Bistan's face.
The ability to completely elementalize the body is an extremely rare witchcraft. Although this type of witchcraft can be immune to most physical damage, under normal circumstances, the conditions for use are extremely harsh.
However, after Enzo solidified [Ghost Shadow], Shadow Body became a passive skill!
brush!
The shadow dissipated like black mist, and then re-condensed into Enzo's body not far away. His eyes flashed with thought, and he pondered slightly for a moment.
"The attack power of the Dark Fireball is not enough to break the defense, let alone other spells."
"The shadow cage can temporarily trap him, but if it can't cause him harm, it doesn't mean much!"
The thoughts in Enzo's mind changed, thinking about how to deal with Bistan.
The witchcraft he currently masters is almost all of the shadow system, which is famous for its weirdness and changeability, but it lacks offensive skills. The only dark fire ball can only exert 25 degrees of power.
This is not enough to break Bistan's defense in the bone demon form.
"It seems that we still need to use the derivative ability of Phantom Crow Qianling!" Enzo took a deep breath at the same place, and his whole body became illusory, and black crows flew out one after another.
"The Realm of the Phantom Crow!"
With a low cry, Enzo's eyes flashed with light, and the phantom crows circled in the arena, gradually building an illusory scene and surging towards Bistan.
"Damn it, is this an illusion again?"
Bistan cursed and struck hard with the bone blades on his arms, shattering the illusion that was swallowing up around him. However, as more and more phantom crows appeared, he was eventually dragged into the illusion.
"Successful?" Enzo's face turned pale.
Using the derived ability of Phantom Crow Thousand Spirits to create an illusion, this was the first time Enzo used it in actual combat. Facing the bone demon with extremely strong defensive capabilities, he seemed to have no other way.
"The attack power of the Dark Fireball can no longer meet the needs of the battle!"
"It seems that I must master stronger witchcraft as soon as possible. Unfortunately, under the watchful eye of Wizard Mitchell, I cannot take out the Sword of Night, otherwise the power of the artifact will be enough to break Bistan's defense."
