Unexpected, truly unexpected!
There was actually such a strange creature as a forest demon in this world!
Grimm clicked his tongue in admiration as he raised the Destructive Flames staff in his hand.
"Looks like this is part of your scheme! What, a shabby regular Magus and an even shabbier magical creature want to keep me here? Aren't you a little too arrogant? "
With that, he waved his staff, and the tip of the staff spat out a huge flame that was tens of metres long, causing the temperature in the cave to rise.
"Hmph, arrogant human. You're the one who's too arrogant!" The forest demon floated down and laughed, "Did you think we would dare to trick you into coming here without any preparations? I'll show you what I've set up! "
Following Lin Yao's soft shout, the ground, walls, ceiling, and stone pillars of the entire karst cave shone with a blue light, and a huge, strange spell formation that could cover the entire space emerged.
At the same time that the spell formation appeared, the flames that Grimm was spitting out from his staff and the Flame Barrier around him dimmed at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye. With a 'pop' sound, the Flame Barrier dissipated into fragments of fire that filled the sky.
[Beep. Unknown force field detected … Initial assessment is …]
The A.I. Chip's prompt in his mind caused Grimm to pause for a moment, and he could not help but read out a name.
"Demon … Disturbance … Barrier!"
"It's good that you know!" The forest demon's dreamy and beautiful body slowly floated in the cave, even passing through a stone pillar and moving behind Grimm, firmly blocking the only path.
"This is a Demon Disturbance Barrier specially prepared for you. I've already adjusted it to a Fire Restriction Barrier. In this cave, no fire-type spells can be successfully cast. How much strength do you, a Fire Magus, have left after losing your innate spells? Hahaha … "
Sabrina, who was holding onto the stone pillar, had an extremely ugly expression on her face.
A single Magus was already difficult enough to deal with, and now a Magus and a magical creature were colluding. She … She had to be extremely unlucky to be able to put on such a show!
Just as Sabrina was about to lose all hope, Grimm continued to smile as he looked at the two enemies in front and behind him, a strange look in his eyes.
"Are you sure that a Demon Disruption Formation can make me surrender? Since that's the case, what are you still hesitating for? Hurry up and capture me! "
Grimm's calmness was clearly beyond Lin Yao's expectations. Her beautiful eyes looked past Grimm and landed on Gargamel.
"Don't worry. He's just pretending to be calm!" Gargamel waved the staff in his hand, "This spell formation was jointly laid down by us, there won't be any problems …"
With that said, Gargamel casually summoned a fireball. A dense amount of fire elemental energy gathered in his palm, but before it could condense into a solid form, it dispersed into rolling waves of fire due to the interference of an inexplicable external force.
"Then go and capture him!" said the forest demon indifferently.
"This …" Gargamel looked at his own thin body, then at Grim's burly body, and couldn't help but shiver.
Melee combat was out of the question!
Without any hesitation, Gargamel chose the move he was most proficient in.
He quickly waved the staff in his hand, and every time he waved it, a strange halo would appear beside Grimm's body. These halos contained different colored magic powders that floated into Grimm's body along with the flow of magic power.
Unfortunately, before they could enter Grimm's body, they were suddenly burnt to ashes by the elemental flames that burst out of his body.
"Damn it, didn't you say that he can't use fire spells?" Seeing this, Lin Yao couldn't care less about her demeanor and angrily cursed.
"Don't worry, this is not a spell!" Gargamel was indeed a veteran Magus who had lived for more than two hundred years. With one look, he could see through Grimm's situation, "He has already turned his body into an elemental form. This is an innate ability of the Body of Fire, not a spell that can be released externally. That's why the Demon Disruption Formation can't interfere with it."
"Are you sure?" Lin Yao couldn't help but be suspicious.
Although her strength was higher than Gargamel's, her knowledge of magic was far inferior to his.
"Ahem, little girl, do you want to live or die?" Gargamel rolled his eyes and stared at Sabrina, "He can't use any spells anymore. Right now, he's just a strong man with a slightly better physique. If you help me take him down, I'll help you heal your internal injuries."
Grimm coldly snorted and turned around, walking towards Lin Yao who was blocking his way.
"Stop him, Sabrina, or I'll kill you right here!" Gargamel screamed like a pig being slaughtered as he threw out two small reagent bottles and two summoning stones.
The small reagent bottles shattered on the ground, and two Storm Elementals crawled out from the sticky and heavy liquid. Two Earth Elementals also crawled out from where the summoning stones had disappeared.
On the other side, Lin Yao also landed on the ground with a serious expression. Her legs turned into countless thorny vines that pierced into the soil below her. In the next second, the earth began to boil and the mud began to roll. Thick vines dug into the ground like giant snakes and quickly extended towards Grimm.
Sabrina, who was between Grimm and Lin Yao, clenched her teeth and hesitated for a moment. Finally, she made up her mind. Four to five three-meter-long mechanical tentacles extended from her body and attacked towards Lin Yao's roots.
"Go deal with the Summoned Creatures behind me. Let me handle this forest demon!" Grimm finally gave Sabrina a serious look and gave the order.
Sabrina turned around in surprise and saw Grimm's calm gaze. She relaxed a little and immediately turned around to face the four summoned creatures. Each of them had the strength of a quasi-wizard, and with Gargamel's help, it would be very difficult for Sabrina to stop them.
Grimm took a step forward and coldly looked at the rapidly approaching Lin Yao. He raised his hand and threw out two magic puppet crystal cores. In the next second, the two Wizard-level magic puppets, the Rotting One and the Roaring One, appeared in front of him.
* Boom! *
A muffled explosion resounded. As soon as the roarer appeared, its thick and solid stone legs stomped fiercely, and the rock stratum beneath it immediately cracked like a spider web. A powerful shockwave also collided head-on with the rattan roots that the forest monsters extended towards them.
* Woo … *
The Lin Yao let out a muffled groan, and the tentacles immediately retreated as if they were electrocuted.
She could see with the naked eye that nearly half of the tentacles had already been broken and shattered. The dripping green liquid quickly gathered into a small stream at her feet.
The Lin Yao angrily waved its left hand and split it into four vines, which smashed the acid arrow thrown by the Rotting One.
"Haha, you're right. I'm a Fire Wizard!" Grimm chuckled. "But your information is not comprehensive enough. Apart from being a Fire Wizard, I'm also a Puppet Summoner …"
Thanks to the two enemies, all Fire Sorcery had been banned here, but other Sorcery lineages had not been banned. This was actually quite normal! If a wandering Wizard could casually set up a Field Disrupting Enchantment, then a Rune Circle Master would probably be the most powerful Wizard in the world.
After all, most Wizards were only good at long-range attacks. Once they lost their ability to cast spells, they would have to fight monsters with their bodies, and they would definitely die a miserable death. This was the main reason why Gargamel and the Lin Yao had set up this trap!
Relying on this Field of Disruption that could be adjusted in advance, they had killed three wandering Wizards in the past ten years. Each time, Gargamel would act as a spy and investigate the enemy's innate ability before luring them into the ground.
Once the Field of Disruption was deployed, the elemental Wizards would instantly lose 70% to 80% of their combat power. What little strength they had left was not enough to withstand the combined attacks of a Wizard and a monster, which was why they had succeeded three times!
But this time, they obviously did not succeed. They actually ran into Grimm, who was an iron plate, and they deserved to bleed!
The Lin Yao in front of them had the rare innate ability to make people fall asleep, and when it was suddenly used on Grimm, he was really shocked.
In the midst of the battle, the Lin Yao's body suddenly shot out a dark green halo of nature, sweeping across the battlefield at lightning speed. Whether it was the elemental bodies of the two magic puppets, the half-mechanical body of Sabrina, or the heavily protected Grimm, all of them felt dizzy and sleepy the moment the green halo penetrated their bodies.
They froze on the spot at the same time and fell into dreamland!
"Quick!" The Lin Yao shouted at the top of his lungs, "That fire wizard's spiritual force is too strong, I can only freeze him for five seconds. Quick! "
While roaring, the Forest Demon quickly pounced towards Grimm, the thick and long rattan tentacles in its hands madly wrapping around him. On the other side, Gargamel gritted his teeth, grabbed a bottle of potion, and poured it into his stomach. Then, he also madly rushed towards Grimm.
At this moment, Grimm had not completely fallen asleep.
On one hand, it was because of the Ain Stones that Alice had given him. Not only did they increase his spiritual force, they also reduced some of the spirit control. After all, the innate spell that the Lin Yao had cast was also a type of spirit ability. Otherwise, he would not have been able to control the elemental magic puppets!
On the other hand, the A.I. Chip in Grimm's mind detected that he was about to fall asleep and released a light electric current to stimulate his consciousness, allowing him to quickly wake up.
However, even though he was awake, he still could not escape the pincer attack of Gargamel and the Lin Yao!
"A.I. Chip, is there a way to solve this?"
[Beep. This Field of Disruption is a beginner-grade spell formation. The host only needs to transform into a Balrog, and the increase in his stats will be able to cancel out the elemental interference …]
"Then what are you waiting for? Transform into a Balrog! "
