The spherical "Gate of Execution" began to shrink. As Berantulu's body disappeared, the entire Magic Tower was engulfed in a storm due to the violent elemental fluctuations.
This "storm" was invisible to the naked eye. To Sodelor and the others, everything had returned to normal as if the battle was over. But only Roddy, who had activated his "Demon Hunter Vision" again, knew that if this spell formation that contained astonishing power went out of control, it would be powerful enough to raze the entire dungeon to the ground.
But even though he knew this, Roddy pretended as if he didn't see it. He sprinted to the corner of the collapsed wall, ignoring Solomon who was staring at him. He used his hands to dig through the rubble and shouted, "Sodelor! Bring some people over to help! "
Amidst the clamor of footsteps, the pile of rubble where Merlinsera was was quickly surrounded by the soldiers.
On the other side, Solomon, whose body was semi-transparent, slowly shifted his gaze away. His previously excited expression was now indescribably strange. He raised his magic staff and pointed at the "Gate of Execution", carefully controlling something. When the violent elements gradually calmed down, the "Gate of Execution" finally disappeared completely.
But the moment the sphere disappeared, something suddenly fell from the center of the spell formation to the ground.
"It's this …"
Solomon's gaze sharpened, and he quickly waved his magic staff. The "Magician's Hand" skillfully grabbed the dark red crystal, and then silently brought it over.
This crystal was the size of a fist. Solomon reached out to hold it with a fiery gaze. His palm was almost transparent, and it would probably disappear completely in a few minutes. But at this moment, he didn't care, and directly chanted a series of incantations. In an instant, the light emitted by the red crystal completely enveloped him.
In less than a minute, Solomon's almost transparent body became abnormally solid, and looked no different from a real person!
After the transformation, Solomon's "chuunibyou" aura seemed to have disappeared instantly. He slowly inhaled, and when he opened his eyes again, the aura of a superior and disdainful person instantly spread out …
At this time, Roddy finally pulled the Shadow Dragon out of the rubble with the help of the soldiers. She was severely injured and her breathing was abnormally weak. It was only because she was holding on that she did not faint. When Roddy shouted her name, she could only open her mouth slightly, unable to make any response.
When Solomon saw this scene, his eyes flickered slightly. He put down the red crystal in his hand and said, "Adventurers …"
Roddy and the others immediately raised their heads.
"You have helped me fulfill my lifelong wish. In return, I, the Elemental Lord Solomon, am willing to grant you sufficient rewards."
There seemed to be no problem with what he said, but Roddy could hear that he was completely "condescending" — in his eyes, they seemed to be small minions waiting for a gift, and Solomon was a superior who held the power of life and death.
"Your Excellency Solomon, if possible, I hope to save my companion first."
Roddy did not show any eagerness. He only lowered his head to examine Merlinsera's injuries, and then gently bandaged her wounds.
Hearing this, Solomon narrowed his eyes slightly, and his gaze rested on Merlinsera for a moment. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he continued to say, "Your companion is very brave. If you want her to recover, I may have a way."
"Really?"
Roddy immediately raised his head, and without a doubt, he said, "I have used up all my potions, and my adjutant has no magic power to cast any divine spells. I only hope that Your Excellency Solomon can save her life! She is the last member of the Shadow Dragons! "
Not only Solomon, but even Sodelor was a little stunned when he heard this. However, he quickly recovered and continued to help Roddy bandage her wounds as if nothing had happened.
Holding the staff in his hand, Solomon did not speak for a few seconds. His slightly flickering eyes seemed to reveal some complicated emotions. But soon, he nodded and went to Merlinsera's side. He waved his staff lightly, and her body slowly floated up.
"My magic power has not fully recovered, so I can only use the power of the magic circle to heal her." The red crystal that he was holding just now had already been hidden somewhere. Solomon raised his arm and pointed at the ground next to his feet in a seemingly casual manner. Lines of magic patterns quietly appeared as he chanted an incantation, and in less than ten seconds, a large magic circle was temporarily constructed.
This was the embodiment of the ability of the master of the Magic Tower. Solomon slowly placed Merlinsera in the center of the magic circle, and did not forget to say, "Adventurers, your efforts have been recognized by me, so I will do my best to heal her injuries. If she grasps this opportunity well, her ability to control the elements in the future will also increase by a level."
"Thank you, Your Excellency Solomon."
Solomon's words were very meaningful. Roddy narrowed his eyes after hearing this, but still bowed to express his gratitude. He did not forget to ask the surrounding soldiers to take a few steps back. But just as everyone dispersed in all directions, Merlinsera, who was lying in the center of the magic circle, tilted her head slightly and exchanged a glance with Roddy …
Turning his face, Roddy suddenly realized that Sodelor was frowning and gesturing to him.
"Do you need to prepare for battle?"
Obviously, Sodelor did not trust Solomon at all. At this moment, he was extremely cautious and prepared to take precautions.
Roddy was really impressed by this future Sword Sage's keen sense of smell. Actually, there was no need for his reminder. As the person who opened the magic circle and saw the "real" Solomon's message, Roddy's heart was already as clear as a mirror.
When this "elemental projection" was created, there was a "contract restriction". Even if Berantulu died, it would also dissipate on its own.
And the current situation just happened to prove the worries of that Elemental King. This "elemental projection" was probably already free from the contract and had become an independent existence!
With this in mind, Roddy raised his hand and responded.
"Fall back and stand by."
After giving the order, Roddy heard a "buzz" sound. A hemispherical barrier suddenly appeared in front of him, covering Solomon and Merlinsera, isolating everyone else outside.
They really can't wait …
Roddy sighed inwardly, but he asked in surprise, "Sir Solomon, this is …"
As expected, his words did not receive any response.
Sodelor immediately realized something. He drew his sword and slashed vertically, but the blade was directly repelled by the barrier and did not even leave a mark.
If this was all a misunderstanding, Solomon would definitely turn around and give an explanation. However, he only sneered and looked at Merlinsera without blinking. With a wave of his hand, a red mist condensed in the surroundings …
This scene was not unfamiliar to Roddy at all, because it was exactly the same as when Berantulu performed the "blood sacrifice"!
"I originally thought I would have to wait for a long time, but now … a Shadow Dragons that have lost the ability to resist can help me complete the body reconstruction."
"Heh, insignificant human, I really have to thank you."
"Solomon" who slowly turned around had a mocking expression. His confident expression with the crystal in his hand was surprisingly similar to the Berantulu that Roddy had seen in the palace!
In an instant, Roddy finally completely connected all the clues in his mind.
Solomon had died a long time ago, but the "Elemental Projection" he left behind had been eroded and influenced by Berantulu's consciousness for hundreds of years. As a result, after it was awakened, its words and actions were strange and exaggerated. It even refused to disappear after completing its "mission" and desperately sought a way to continue living.
And the reason why the body of Berantulu that had just been killed had no intelligence was because it had condensed all of its soul consciousness into that red crystal. When the "Elemental Projection" tried to use the red crystal to restore its body, it did not know that it had already been "taken over" by Berantulu!
Although it was currently only in a weak soul state, although it still needed a series of sacrifices to restore a complete body, it had indeed escaped the power of the "Gate of Execution" and was still alive in this world!
In other words, Berantulu had actually seen through Solomon's plan and made all of his efforts go up in smoke.
"A demigod really is a demigod, not a single one of them is stupid."
Facing the demigod that mocked him in the High Elves language, Roddy had to admit that the situation before him was bigger than he had imagined.
But as surprised as he was, he did not show any signs of panic. Instead, he calmly looked at Berantulu who was holding the soul crystal in his hand.
The demigod who had thought that victory was already in his grasp was surprised, but he knew that this Level-45 elemental barrier was not something that Roddy and the others could break through. He shook his head and sighed, "The outcome has already been decided, no matter how natural you act, it's useless."
"Is that so?"
Roddy suddenly smiled. The gleaming white teeth made Berantulu suddenly feel that … it, who had always been meticulous, seemed to have missed out on something.
But what happened next made him not know whether to laugh or cry: the human in front of him suddenly turned pale, his skin shriveled as if his blood had been sucked out, and then he fell stiffly to the ground …
"Huh?"
Berantulu did not expect Rody, who had been boasting just a second ago, to 'commit suicide' the next second. He laughed out loud. But before it could mock him, it suddenly felt its field of vision suddenly spinning — —
"Bang!"
His elemental body was suddenly smashed into the barrier by a huge force, a large spider web-like crack immediately appeared.
"This is impossible …"
Before he could finish speaking, the wind from the punch came again. The speed was so fast that he did not have time to cast a spell, and his chest was punched through.
"Bang!"
The fist went through his body and shattered the barrier without any resistance. Berantulu could not imagine how he would be attacked. When the beautiful face filled with hostility appeared in his vision, his eyes widened abruptly, and he said in shock, "You, you aren't —"
Merlinsera did not give him a chance to speak. Her HP was restored to 100%, and all her wounds were healed. She attacked with all her might, and without any hesitation, she turned Berantulu into elemental dust!
She was actually at Level 67, so attacking an elemental clone that was not even Level 40 didn't require any extra skills.
After the opponent's weak body dissipated, Merlinsera picked up the red crystal that represented Berantulu's last line of defense. But before she moved, she suddenly looked up at Roddy.
"I don't want to be targeted by a demigod."
Although Roddy was sitting with a terrible expression, he showed an ugly smile and waved his hand weakly.
As a Dragons, Merlinsera did not take his words as a joke. Instead, she took it as an order. She raised her hand and shattered the crystal with a loud wail …
