So heavy …
I can't stand up …
My mana is about to collapse …
My consciousness is about to disappear …
Elusa half-knelt on the ground, her white bare feet and calves sunk into the ground. She felt that her mana was on the verge of exhaustion, and the heavy pressure made her totter. She would fall to the ground completely at any time.
At this moment, what she was enduring was exactly the same as what Mira had endured before.
But the difference was that Elusa's mind was much stronger!
Even if she felt that her mana was about to be exhausted, that her body could no longer support it, and that she was on the verge of despair, she did not have the slightest thought of giving up.
No!
I can't give up here!
Elusa's fingers, which had gradually loosened because of the separation, clenched into a fist with an unknown source of strength, and raised her head little by little against the huge pressure.
She wanted to pass the assessment, she wanted to become an S-rank Magic Shooter, she wanted to chase after Maples' back!
"Ahhhhh …"
Accompanied by a tenacious and firm voice, a huge amount of mana suddenly emerged from Elusa's body that was about to be exhausted!
This mana was not created out of nothing, but a second mana source that existed based on the first mana source!
Most Magic Shooters would never be able to touch the traces of a second mana source in their lifetime. The opening of a second mana source could allow a Magic Shooter to take a big step forward in the level of mana.
Magic Shooters who could open up a second mana source could basically set foot in the realm of S-rank Magic Shooters, and those who were already S-rank Magic Shooters were even more solid!
There was still a big gap between S-rank Magic Shooters and the Ten Great Saint Magic Shooters. There were at least two small steps, and the opening of a second mana source could directly skip one of the steps.
The unlocking of a second mana source often required a long time of practice, and those without aptitude would need even longer time. But Elusa's high enough aptitude allowed her to unlock her second mana source under the pressure of Maples!
Boom!!
In the outbreak of the mana torrent, Elusa's crimson hair fluttered like a queen. Under the pressure of Maples' mana, she stood up little by little.
There were still some scars left on her body from when her armor was shattered, and there was even a trace of blood on her face. However, her gaze was incomparably calm and resolute.
She stared straight at the Maples, then pulled her jade-like feet out of the ground and took a firm step forward.
One step,
Two steps.
Three steps.
Under the pressure of the Maples, the second mana source broke and unlocked itself, and Elusa's mana rose to a new level. Although she still hadn't reached the level of the Ten Saints, she was able to advance against the pressure of the Maples.
Even though it was still a bit difficult, so much so that as she advanced, there were drops of blood dripping down from the wounds on her body due to the pressure and impact, her steps didn't tremble or stop in the slightest.
In the end.
Elusa took three steps to the front of the Maples and raised her right hand.
Maples looked at her calmly. He watched her walk over and finally smiled. He raised his right hand and gently extended it forward.
Pa!
The broad palm and the slender white little hand clapped in the air.
With this clap, the mana surging in all directions on Maples' body receded quickly like a tide and converged back into his body, making him look like an ordinary and handsome Magic Shooter again.
"…"
At the same time when the pressure disappeared, Elusa also swayed and fell to the right.
Although after releasing the second mana source, she resisted the pressure of the Maples' mana and walked to the front of Maples, her physical strength had long been overdrawn and her body had been at its limit. She purely relied on her willpower to take the last three steps.
At this time, the pressure disappeared, and her tensed willpower also relaxed. She immediately felt that her body was limp and could no longer support herself to stand.
However.
She didn't fall to the ground, but was gently caught by Maples' outstretched arm and put her down a little bit.
"Well done."
Maples laid Elusa flat on the ground and gave her the praise she deserved: "You passed the second level."
Elusa looked tired and weak. At this time, her body was so heavy that she felt that she couldn't move a finger. She could only look at Maples and smile with difficulty.
She passed the second level.
Although there was still the third level, which was guarded by Makarov, she believed that she would be able to pass it!
If she became an S-rank Magic Shooter, although there was still a huge gap between her and Maples, she would at least be able to catch up with him.
"Okay, I'll treat you."
Maples saw that Elusa was so difficult that she couldn't even speak. He smiled at her and after laying her down, he raised his left hand and a ball of emerald green fluorescence brewed in his palm.
His palm hovered over Elusa's forehead, then slid down from the top of her head to her toes.
The emerald green fluorescence in his palm sprinkled and fell on Elusa's body, making the wounds on her body heal at a speed visible to the naked eye. Even the injuries caused by the pressure and impact were healed at the same time.
A few seconds later.
Elusa felt that her body had returned to its original state. She moved her fingers a few times and sat up little by little.
Elusa showed a gentle smile and said:
"It seems that I'm still a little stronger than Mira."
"Well, the third level shouldn't be able to stop you."
Maples smiled and said: "You have time to slowly recover your magic power before going to the third level, but that's a bit of a waste of time. I'll help you recover as well."
As his voice fell, Maples stood up and pointed at Elusa.
Whoosh!!
A white holy light burst out from his fingertips and covered Elusa's whole body. It first produced a purifying effect, cleaning up all the residual blood and dirt on the surface of her body, then poured into her body.
The warm magic power completely filled her body in an instant.
This magic power quickly poured into her first and second mana source, completely filling up these two places before disappearing.
Whoosh!
Elusa, who had recovered her magic power, quickly changed into a new set of clothes with a thought.
Although she didn't care about these trivial matters to Maples, now that her magic power had recovered, there was no doubt that it would be a little awkward and rude to face Maples like this.
"Go on."
"I'll wait for your news."
Maples took two steps back and motioned for Elusa to go up.
Elusa took a deep breath, nodded with a firm gaze, and said: "I will pass the final assessment."
As her voice fell, she jumped and followed the path in the direction of the final assessment.
