Dira's Dead Soul Weapon?
Temporarily granting these metal machines the ability of an Elemental Body!
One of the biggest reasons why modern Elemental Sorcerers had gradually abandoned the combination of ancient mechanical sorcery was because of the conflict between mechanical assistance and the Elemental Body.
Grimm was shocked. He waved the Sabbatic Goat Staff in his hand and blocked the Dira's metal sword.
A gray Dead Soul Flame followed the sword as if trying to wrap around the Sabbatic Goat Staff. However, it dispersed into specks of gray light under a high-density elemental shockwave.
"Whoosh!" Grimm was hit by a huge force and could not help but fall back a distance in the sky.
Using the mechanical devices in his body to strengthen his physique, and using the Dead Soul Flame as support, it caused a short burst in physique, turning a pure Elemental Sorcerer into an Anatomy Refinery Sorcerer?
"Whoosh! Whoosh! "
Two disintegrating light beams shot towards him.
His body was extremely agile. Grimm sidestepped a few steps and easily dodged the two disintegrating light beams that seemed to have missed him by a hair.
This was the combat art of a Demon-Hunter Sorcerer who walked the line between life and death. For an Arcane Sorcerer, he would have to expend magic power to use other sorcery or elemental teleportation to avoid it.
With a "pu" sound, the metal machines and ice crystals that filled the sky followed closely behind.
However, when Dira gathered again, the sword in his hand turned into a long spear, burning with the Dead Soul Flame and thrusting towards Grimm.
Just as the Sabbatic Goat Staff was about to meet the spear, Grimm suddenly felt his heart skip a beat. Instinctively, he activated the first level of Wild Instinct.
"First level of Wild Instinct, activate!"
His body was densely covered with black scales, emitting a cold metallic texture. His body was thinner and longer, filled with wildness and violence. His physique and speed had also increased by a large margin.
He leaned back at an extremely fast speed and nimbly dodged a blue ray.
His body made an extremely uncoordinated and difficult movement. Under the Mask of Truth, he looked to the side slightly.
"Buzz!"
The long golden hair behind his back was swept by the blue ray. After a buzzing sound, the golden hair that was hit by the blue ray was broken into pieces.
This was a high-intensity cutting sorcery similar to the sorcery that Grimm had used in the past.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang …
Grimm activated the Frost Burst Spell, and a large number of icicles shot toward Dira. These Ice Burst Icicles were created from the collision of ice and fire elements, and with the support of the Sabbatic Goat Staff, their power could reach a thousand degrees!
Ding!
On the one hand, the Sabbatic Goat Staff was blocking the spear, and the Undead Flames that were trying to wrap around the staff were scattered in all directions. At the same time, Grimm's Wild Instincts Stage 1 transformation had already surpassed Dira's Undead Armor in terms of strength. With a muffled grunt, Dira stumbled backward.
On the other side, it was Grimm's counterattack with Exploding Icicles. "Peng, peng, peng, peng" Amidst the incessant explosions, a translucent defensive barrier rippled and shattered.
"This defensive barrier …"
Grimm stared at the retreating Dyla and suddenly recalled the Ashen Mask he had worn during his time as a Sorcerer-Apprentice.
This kind of defensive barrier looked like a sorcerer's barrier, but it was only a targeted defensive ability. It had no effect on energy that was not recorded by the barrier.
Of course, its advantage was that it could be used at any time against any creature. It seemed to be the frontier of the Sorcerer World's Dawn Sages and the Arcane Sorcerers had been secretly researching and developing it.
"Wild Instincts? You're actually a Wild Physique Refinery Sorcerer, and an Elemental Sorcerer who also practices Wild Physique Refinery Sorcery? "
Dira was shocked.
According to the Arcane Sorcerers' theory, it was similar to how a Demon-Hunter Sorcerer praying to the Sorcerer's Will to condense a sorcerer's barrier, which could not coexist with the long-term study of the Arcane Truth. Unlocking Wild Instincts, which needed to be constantly on the brink of death, was also in conflict with the rational and calm Elemental Sorcerer.
Now that Grimm had unlocked Wild Instincts as an Elemental Sorcerer, although it was not a big deal to the Demon-Hunter Sorcerers of the Endless World, it could only be attributed to Grimm's personal research field. However, to Dira, who only saw the traditional laws of the Sorcerer World, it was simply unacceptable.
"Grimm …"
Yates had gradually recovered from his weakened state. A mass of pure Dark Element gradually formed the shape of a monster's head at the top of his magic staff, baring its fangs.
"Good luck! This is the last thing I can help you with, Shadow Sinking! "
The monster's head roared and turned into thousands of strands of Dark Element before disappearing. Yates did not even look back. After dispersing the Elemental Activated Creature, he rushed towards the giant bird in the distance and flew towards the direction of the Ivory Castle Sorcerer Academy.
Without Yates' share of Dira's Force of Nature's suppression, Grimm suddenly felt the pressure on his body increase by a few notches. The amount of Force of Nature that he could control was also reduced by half. Layers upon layers of Force of Nature were constantly pressing down on him.
"Huh?"
Dira suddenly cried out in surprise. His body turned into ice flowers and thousands of mechanical parts. When he reassembled again, he could not stop his body from sinking.
"It's not Gravity Witchcraft! Could it be Curse Witchcraft? "
Dira guessed in shock. After the mechanical gear in his right eye was spinning at its maximum speed, he finally found something unusual in his shadow.
"So it's here."
Dira stood on the ground and madly mobilized Elemental Force. The Force of Nature in the sky was like a funnel, continuously gathering towards Dira. At the same time, a large amount of Dark Element fog was dispelled from the shadow under his feet.
"Roar!"
The Savage Flame Giant's Lava Greatsword had finished forming again. It roared and descended from the sky, waves of fire spreading out, like a burning cloud falling from the sky.
Dira dispelled the Dark Element in his shadow as he raised his left hand, and an energy cannon filled with Ice Element energy exploded.
"Boom!"
Lava and ice flowers splashed everywhere, and a large amount of steam filled the air. However, the Lava Giant's huge body still landed next to Dira. It opened its huge mouth and spat out a Crimson Fireball.
The fireball's high temperature and waves of heat made Dira's hair and robe a little messy.
"Hmph!"
Dira snorted coldly.
It was not wise to fight this big guy head-on, but he could not dodge the Dark Elemental Witchcraft in his shadow. In a moment of desperation, he snorted coldly and took out an exquisite little bottle from his sleeve.
"Lightning Purification."
After a series of crackling sounds of thunder and lightning, on one side, Dira was in a sorry state as he dodged the scarlet fireball, his wizard robe charred black. On the other side, the Savage Flame Giant was instantly riddled with holes.
Lightning Purification!
This was not the first time Grimm had seen an Elemental Purification spell.
As an elemental lifeform that was as diverse as flesh and blood, Magi had developed an Elemental Purification spell that was extremely effective against elemental lifeforms in their long demon-hunting expeditions.
During Grimm's time as a Magus acolyte, an acolyte had once used it on Grimm's Greedy Flame Giant.
However, Purification was extremely complicated to train in, and had many limitations. Very few Magi would study it for long periods of time.
Unexpectedly, Dira had a bottle of consumable that could cast this spell, and it seemed to be of extremely high quality.
The mental energy framework of the Savage Flame Giant that was riddled with holes had been thrown into disarray. It would only be a waste of magic power to maintain it any longer. Grimm dispelled the mental energy with a wave of his hand. Then, he swung his Sabbatic Goat Staff at the Savage Flame Giant!
* Peng, peng, peng, peng, peng … *
The spear in Dira's right hand once again turned into a short hatchet, passively defending again and again. Although he was continuously pushed back by Grimm's attacks, it was only on the surface.
"Hmph hmph hmph! How much mana do you have left? Your Wild Nature Transformation has a time limit. Once your Wild Nature Transformation is over, you'll fall into a state of weakness, and you won't even have the ability to escape. What will happen to you then? Will you become my captive? "
Although Dira kept sneering on the surface, he felt as if his heart was bleeding.
This Magus Grimm was really too powerful. He had far surpassed a Rank 1 Magus, and could actually fight a Rank 2 Magus to a standstill. This was a level that Dira had never been able to achieve in the past.
Such a genius Magus should have belonged to the Lilith Hut Magus Academy! He should have been a member of the Bright Magi!
But now … He was fighting with Dira to protect the interests of the Dark Magi. At that moment, Dira's hatred towards his own negligence became more and more irreconcilable.
* Huff, Huff … *
Grimm paused his attacks and worked hard to extract mana from the Demon-Hunting equipment, maintaining the repulsive force field and the protective layer that was suppressing the Force of Nature.
If not for the Demon-Hunting equipment providing an endless supply of mana, Grimm's mana would have long since been depleted.
"Hmph, have I reached my limit?"
The gears in one of Dira's eyes spun rapidly, while the mirror in his other eye had a few cracks. They had been accidentally shattered by the impact of the battle.
Beneath the Mask of Truth, a pair of eyes that were filled with ice and fire struggled to calm down. Grimm suddenly took a deep breath.
"It seems like fighting a Rank 2 Magus in this state is still too much for me. Then …"
Grimm clenched his fist.
"Level 2 Wild Instinct, activate!"
Suddenly, the pupils of Dira's eye shrunk. Even the gears in his other eye paused for a brief moment in disbelief.
Level 2 Wild Instinct?!
Under Dira's disbelief, Grimm's body began to expand, gradually turning into a three-metre-tall giant. Greyish-White bone spikes began to emerge from his black scales, each of them ranging from 20 to 30 centimetres in length. At the same time, a dark aura of flames curled around the tip of the bone spikes.
A berserk aura filled the air, like a giant beast that was gradually awakening from its slumber.
Grimm did not move from his spot, but with every breath he took, it was as if he was triggering waves of ripples in his surroundings that continued to spread. Compared to the pressure exerted by ordinary people, the pressure of a higher level of life was clearly displayed.
Although Grimm's physique had not reached the standard of a rank 2 Magus, it was not far from it.
However, this was only because his physique had not reached the standard of a rank 2 Magus. If Grimm's various powerful auxiliary abilities were taken into account and provided him with true battle strength …
Perhaps it was because his defence had become too strong, or perhaps Grimm had completely given up on using elemental spells, he could no longer withstand the pressure from the surrounding elements.
"Master … Dira!"
Grimm, who had transformed into a giant bone spike monster, raised his head. One moment he was tens of metres away, the next he suddenly appeared in front of Dira and smashed down with his Sabbatic Goat Staff.
* Boom! *
The elemental shockwave caused dust to rise tens of metres into the air, and the ground trembled. The acolytes on the flying carpets a thousand metres away screamed and covered their ears as they fell to the ground.
After a long while, the dust gradually settled.
Grimm, whose bone spikes were surrounded by a dark aura, stood in a giant pit with a diameter of 30 metres. The Sabbatic Goat Staff rested on his shoulder like a giant hammer. He looked at the back of Wizard Dira, who was fleeing in a sorry state, and did not move.
