This is destined to be a difficult battle. After the initial tentative attack, overwhelming despair envelopes the hearts of every high-level magician.
The invisible realm rejects all comers, weakens and devours everyone's magic. The surrounding magic forms a huge whirlpool due to his presence, constantly drawing people and objects that are close into it.
A sixth-level mage from Solon lost his body in the strong wind just by not paying attention, and his fragile body was instantly torn apart in the field.
"Get away!"
Seeing the body of the crystal giant facing them blooming with dazzling light, the mages responsible for pulling the crystal giant shouted loudly and moved at high speed to avoid the deadly purple beam.
The crystal giant who was dragged all the way away from the royal capital stopped.
"嗗~~~" is like the sound made by fat-rich meat being grilled at high temperature and fat dripping into the charcoal fire.
Brilliant purple light spurted out from the crystal giant's spindle-shaped head, and the bright light stream instantly overwhelmed the unsuspecting high-level magician behind him.
It's not the front that emits purple light, but the back.
Its entire body is the most powerful weapon.
Under the gaze of many high-level magicians with pale faces, the figures of those models in the stream of light dissipated little by little, and finally turned into ashes.
The earth was blazing, the fire was raging into the sky, and the crystal giant's body reflected the red flames, as well as the inexplicable faces of horror.
A high-level magician from the Elf tribe swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty: "Is this giant who can't feel the breath of life a war weapon..."
"Is it really what the Theocracy said...it and the butterfly are both at the ninth level?" A magician's body was trembling.
"Just kidding, how can a ninth-level creation exist in this world? What kind of existence can create it? I don't believe it!"
"Where..."
"Ni..."
"Sha..."
The crystal giant roared out the name again with the vocal organ that existed somewhere, and the sound waves shook the jumping flames on the ground.
"Who the hell is Vanessa?"
"It's a name I've never heard of. We've searched through the collections of all Mela clans. The highest rank that matches the name is only fifth level, so it must have nothing to do with it."
"No matter who it is, she has brought disaster to Meira, Dipin, and the Crystal Giant. Everything is her fault!"
The angry magicians raised their staffs again and poured out their anger at the crystal giant with all kinds of magic. However, before their magic could get close to the crystal giant's body, they were wiped out by ripples in the void.
Dissolve.
"Gather the fire, gather the fire!"
Under the urging, hundreds of high-level magicians each selected a suitable location, and the magic core, crystal, and spell-casting tools were ready.
At a time when individual strength has been completely crushed, the only way to defeat the crystal giant of unknown rank is to use the simplest and crudest method - to pile up the number of people.
Lu Yu and Lu Lu, who sensed the flow of magic power and rushed to the battlefield of high-level magicians, suddenly stopped. The astonishing fluctuations in magic power in the distance made their bodies numb.
"No...they can't be..."
Being woken up by Lu Lu, Lu Yu was startled, and the two of them immediately speeded up.
The torrent of magic power gathered from the streams of light drowned the crystal giant. Magic of various attributes collided and merged with each other, shattering the seemingly unbreakable forbidden magic realm layer by layer. The defenses that had shut out magic countless times began to collapse.
Finally, the first touch of magic penetrated into the gap in the Forbidden Demon Realm, swam, and rushed towards the body of the crystal giant. It was also at this moment that the high-level magicians discovered that the Forbidden Demon Realm was shrinking!
“It works, it really works!”
"Don't begrudge the magic power, increase the output, its secret is right in front of you, this is Meira's common wealth!"
Although the winner has not yet been decided, some magicians are already cheering loudly. They seem to have seen the future of splitting the giant and sharing secrets.
Suddenly, the forbidden magic realm completely dissipated, and the surging magic power hit the huge body of the crystal giant like a flood that broke a bank, emitting a series of dull explosions.
"Run!" Lu Lu, who rushed to the scene, used all his strength to warn the magicians who were watching the "Giant About to Fall".
Similar to the friction of sharp metal products on smooth rock walls, the scalp-numbing sound overwhelmed Lu Lu's warning and drowned out Lu Yu's roar.
The crystal giant, which was in the center of the torrent of magic power and had been baptized by hundreds of high-level magicians, was no longer intact under this blow. The originally smooth and bright body surface became pitted, and smelly black smoke was emitted everywhere.
At this moment, its body completely showed a charming color between pink and purple, and the radiance from the inside to the outside outlined the amorphous body that was constantly squirming in the spindle-shaped head.
Only then did the high-level magicians discover the dangerous "core" from the flickering light and shadow.
"Buzz."
Hearing this special sound, Lu Lu quickly pushed Lu Yu to the ground.
Lu Yu, who had quick hands and quick eyes, had already summoned the Demon-Eating Tree and devoured the magic power flowing towards him.
"Forbidden demons, but at the same time, they are storing demons. When they reach a certain level, they will explode... Can these high-level magicians survive..." Lu Yu's voice trembled slightly as he was hiding behind the demon-eating tree.
"It's exactly the same as the one in the Silent Mountains!" Lu Lu shuddered, and she didn't even dare to carefully feel the torrent of magic around her.
A dark, cold feeling snaked on the backs of the two of them, and a familiar feeling of irritation began to emerge.
Lu Yu covered his head and found that Lu Lu had the same reaction.
"Dyeing... started again..."
"When the Forbidden Demon Realm is opened, the power of mental pollution will be weakened... So now, it has switched forms!"
One after another, wailing sounds resounded through the wilderness, and crazy roars occurred one after another. Lu Yu wanted to rescue the high-ranking people who were beginning to be infected, but he was unable to do anything.
Whether it is the power of the dip that pollutes the mind, or the dual-form switching between the Forbidden Demon Realm and the Demon-Containing Burst, the power displayed by the Crystal Giant has exceeded the upper limit of strength in this era. If the Dip Butterfly is an incomplete creation, then
The Crystal Giant is the pinnacle doll left behind by Sayer and Vanessa.
“Vanessa!
"The giant let out a deafening roar again, his dry voice mixed with mania.
The magicians who were lucky enough to survive the torrent of magic created by the crystal giant began to flee quickly, and they did not forget to remind Lu Yu when they passed by the Demon-Eating Tree.
"Put away your summons and run away. Only when reinforcements from the Theocracy arrive in Sligo and organize a larger team of high-level magicians to launch an attack, can there be any chance of victory."
The magician who spoke kept covering his head. He was suffering from a splitting headache due to the infection, but he still managed to fly towards the royal capital.
Lu Lu looked at Lu Yu: "There is no summoned object that can..."
"Having felt that power, you should know better than me. No summons can counter his dual forms and the power of infiltration... You can counter one type alone, but these are three types." Lu Yu said.
sigh.
Lulu's eyes were firm, and she took out Vanessa's portrait from her backpack: "Bet again?"
Lu Yu was already ready to take Lu Lu away from the battlefield. He was here to help, not to die.
He did not have the slightest fondness for the nobles and school mages living in Rodmere. If they all died one day, eating and drinking in the Dawn Territory for three days to celebrate would be his first choice.
Their life and death were never in Lu Yu's consideration.
But…
Vanessa is smiling quietly in the portrait, and the shyness and tenderness in her smile are clearly visible.
The ground trembled, and the crystal giant once again marched towards the royal capital. The high-level magician was injured and planned to defend the city and wait for reinforcements before counterattacking. Lu Yu was pessimistic about this strategy - the city in front of it was as fragile as a blank sheet of paper.
Lu Yu grabbed the portrait and murmured: "Actually, I prefer Sayer... But I did follow your footsteps and came here... If this is fate, please continue to write it down for those innocent people.
Show people a way out."
"Vanessa...Teacher...bless me and Lulu, bless the bad disciples who have learned your knowledge and peeked at your diary..."
After muttering, Lu Yu put the portrait on Lu Lu's face, and then pressed his hands on her waist.
With her sight blocked, Lu Lu subconsciously planned to use magic to sense her surroundings, but after feeling the strong and warm hands on her waist, her body became a little weak.
"Remember the locking mechanism of the Crystal Giant?"
Lu Yu's words stunned Lu Lu, and she immediately recalled the way the crystal giant in the Silent Mountains reflected everyone's figure and launched an attack.
Lu Lu trembled and said happily: "You want me to pretend to be Vanessa?"
"After all, it is just a creation. Its recognition ability relies on its inner 'core'. I don't believe that its cognitive ability is perfect enough to distinguish between a portrait and a real person!"
"This is the only way I can think of to stop the giant from advancing. It's very risky... I only plan to try it once and run away immediately if it fails." Lu Yu hugged Lu Lu tightly in his arms with an apologetic expression, "Aren't you..."
"Let's go on an adventure together just like we did when we first met," Lu Lu interrupted Lu Yu, "It's just more exciting this time. If you want to try it, I will definitely be by your side."
Lu Yu's body felt a little hot and he didn't say anything more. As the two people's wind magic resonated, they slowly floated towards the crystal giant.
In the midst of the malicious, muddy power, they carefully explored a safe distance, and the body as huge as a hill was approaching step by step.
Two figures, one large and one small, appeared on the shiny mirror of the crystal giant. The magic power scattered around began to shrink, and a suffocating sense of oppression was squeezed from all directions.
Lu Yu buried his head completely on Lu Lu's back and lifted Lu Lu as high as possible.
Lu Lu, wearing Vanessa's mask, appeared on every mirror of the crystal giant, with that quiet and gentle smile occupying its body.
Lu Yu, who was always ready to summon No. 1 to cover Lu Lu's escape, had already mobilized his magic power. He felt the atmosphere around him and nervously waited for the crystal giant's movements.
Their heartbeats were almost synchronized, and their heavy breathing formed a duet.
"F...Ni...Sha..." The crystal giant stopped, and the amorphous shadow in the spindle-shaped head stopped changing and gradually stagnated.
"F...Ni...Sha..."
"I…"
"you…"
"wake…"
"Must... be done..."
The crystal giant gradually knelt on the ground, its huge head getting closer to the road, but as if it was afraid of hurting "Vanessa", its movements gradually became slower.
"Must... be done..."
"wake…"
"ceremony…"
The crystal giant murmured: "The ritual must be completed."
After rereading it over and over again, he arranged the words correctly and spoke them fluently.
"The awakening ceremony must be completed."
The crystal giant knelt on one knee, raising its spindle-shaped head little by little, facing the sky.
"Magic Circuit Detection."
The pale purple body shone slightly, and the complex lines embedded in the body began to appear.
Lu Lu secretly opened the portrait and looked at the super giant magic circle in front of her that was like a line of stars in the sky. She was trembling with excitement.
"Ritual magic... is unheard of. This pattern is only half, and the other half, it intends to... wait... can you tell!"
"Confirmation of the number of high-level consciousness carriers..."
The invisible spiritual power is transmitted to every corner of Mela through the dips one by one. The moment the dip magicians acting as communication towers receive the message, magic bursts out.
"Carrier, confirm."
In front of the defense lines of the royal capital Rodmere, the dipsticks who rushed towards the city wall like zombies stopped one after another. As if they felt something, they all raised their heads and looked in the direction of the crystal giant.
The illuminated magic lines on the crystal giant began to rotate, and the dim nodes glowed brightly. At this moment, its body seemed to have only the function of projection.
Lu Yu was surprised to find that the amorphous shadow was located in the center surrounded by countless magic circle nodes.
The magic circle like a star map began to continuously absorb the magic power around it, and the amorphous shadow was projected into the void, gradually taking on the shape of a human body as it continued to twist.
"Ritual, execution."
As soon as the Crystal Giant finished speaking, the surging spiritual power overflowed from the Crystal Giant's body. The two people who had not yet broken off the chat heard countless mechanical and numb sounds in their dizziness.
Different voices from different bodies converged into a river, and they collectively shouted the same name.
Vanessa.
"Disconnect!"
Before the pain in their heads was about to explode, Lulu tried his best to stop the connection between the two, but the one after another "Vanessa" still echoed in every corner of their minds, with lingering sounds.
Segro's smile, who was drinking tea and chatting with Orkus, suddenly froze. He listened intently, and deep in the silent Summoning Temple, a constantly superimposed and repeated sound came like a rolling torrent.
Orcus also heard the voice.
"F...N...Sha?"
At this moment, thousands of creatures chanted this name.
The clouds above the sky dome of the Summoning Temple split, and countless orange-yellow light points converged towards the light beams projected onto the ground.
Segro's figure was stagnant, and there was no response no matter how Orkus called.
Under the gathering of endless light spots, a figure exactly like the painting in Lu Yu's hand emerged.
She walked through the silent and incomplete Temple of Summoning without saying a word, her calm and indifferent eyes sweeping over the motionless Segro, and the extremely surprised Orkus, wrapped in the endless stream of light, fell towards the bottom of the temple.
From beginning to end, Orcus could not see her existence.
