Simon, human, Body Refinement Magus (Hybrid Poison). Stats: Strength 12, Agility 8, Vitality 14, Spiritual Force 6. Close combat skills: Rapid Strike, Savage Strike, Splitting Touch …
Flender, human, Elemental Magus (Water). Stats: Strength 5, Agility 3, Vitality 6, Spiritual Force 17. Common spells: Ice Spear Volley, Whirlpool Strangulation, Giant Wave Impact, Water Dragon Wave …
Magi's powerful life force and spiritual force combined to form a formless forcefield barrier. Under normal circumstances, it was impossible to clearly and intuitively examine the basic data of the other party with the A.I. Chip's passive probing ability.
However, in the process of battle, Grimm could determine the strength of his opponent's spiritual force based on the different penetrative effects of his Lava Fireballs. He could also determine the recovery rate of his opponent's spiritual force based on the cooldown time of his opponent's casting. He could also determine the opponent's strength, agility, and vitality based on his opponent's movement speed and attack endurance.
Although every external appearance of the other party was the result of a combination of countless internal factors, Grimm still managed to obtain a lot of useful data through quantitative and qualitative analysis.
Regardless of whether Grimm's attack penetrated his opponent's defensive spell or his opponent's spell revealed his secret, the A.I. Chip was able to create a model for both of them based on the frequency of spiritual waves, the effect of the spell, the strength of the defensive spell, the cooldown time of the spell, and the recovery speed of the wizard power … These detailed data allowed the A.I. Chip to create a model for both of them.
He would then use his attacks to test the strength of his opponent's defensive spells, as well as their reactions to Grimm's attacks. These things were undoubtedly very trivial, and it was difficult for anyone to take care of them during a battle. Therefore, Grimm had never thought that someone would be able to collect detailed data from them.
At the start, Grimm did not know anything about their basic stats, so the battle was very dull and dangerous. However, when their models were completed, the fog of battle before Grimm's eyes suddenly dispersed, and everything became clear.
With the basic stats of his opponents and their battle habits, although Grimm was still surrounded by them, it was as if he had suddenly opened his Heaven's Eye. He could predict their next moves and possible attacks.
Grimm was able to determine Sicar's basic movement speed and the limit of his attack with every burst of power. In this way, he would be able to adjust his Wizard Power just right, and always put himself in an awkward position where his opponent's power could not reach him.
That would put Sicar in a difficult position.
'Let's just forcefully attack …' Seiji had moved to a perfect location, where his strength was at its weakest. If he wanted to attack from his opponent's flank, he would have to take the risk of a round of counterattacks from his opponent.
But if he were to dodge … the opponent would chase after him again, and before Flender's attack could reach him, he would bombard him with a round of almost saturated fireballs.
It was very, very difficult to grasp this kind of sense of propriety!
One had to know that Sicar's 12 points of Strength was already a terrifying attack. If the effects of defensive spells were disregarded, each attack from Sicar's Panther Claw could reach an astonishing 70 points.
This number sounded very insignificant, and it seemed to be more than a third of the 110 points of his full-power strike. However, Sicar's 8 points of Dexterity allowed him to link his close-range combat skills together, and he could use his storm-like attacks to interrupt and entangle his opponent.
He could attack 5 times every 3 seconds, and each attack was around 70 points. If this kind of attack was continuous, what kind of defensive spell would be able to defend against it?
Therefore, once Cesar got close to them, it would be very difficult for any Magus to cast a spell under such a continuous barrage of attacks. They could only defend themselves and escape to a faraway place.
The lava shield around Grimm's body had been activated when he and Flender were engaged in a battle of fire and water. Simon had charged in from the side and broke through the Wind Dragon's defense in one fell swoop. He had used the two seconds to get close to Grimm to smash the lava shield into pieces of lava and fire.
If the Wind Dragon did not chase him away with its' Wind Vortex ', Grimm's remaining flame shields would not have lasted for more than a few seconds.
Of course, Sicar also paid a considerable price for his rapid advancement.
The Balrog's Burning Domain and Fire Barrier stacked together, and he had to endure 80 degrees of fire damage per second. On top of that, the lava shield had an additional 25 degrees of fire damage per second.
Therefore, he retreated to avoid the Wind Dragon and Grimm's counterattack, and he also wanted to retreat to the edge of the battlefield so that his injured body could recover in time. With his 14 points of vitality, as long as his body was not broken, he could use his power of the will to recover his damaged body.
Also, as long as he was 20 to 30 meters away from Grimm, he was confident that he could dodge 70 to 80 percent of Grimm's counterattack with his skillful fighting skills and dodging methods.
And his sacrifice was worth it!
While he was holding Grimm back for a few seconds, Flender once again condensed that terrifying water dragon wave, and it swept towards Grimm like a storm. Without a Lava Shield, it would be difficult for Grimm to survive this wave of attacks unscathed.
If it was before, Grimm would have to waste the Wind Dragon's power to raise a giant wind barrier to escape from Flender's spell range. Grimm had to prevent his defensive spell from being stripped away and injure his body.
While he was escaping, he also had to be careful of Sicar's sneak attack.
But now, with Grim's meticulous observation of the entire battle, he suddenly changed his previous conservative and cautious approach and changed to a completely different tactical strategy.
Grimm growled softly and shot out three lava fireballs in a triangular formation at Flender's Water Dragon. Grimm, on the other hand, did not take the opportunity to escape. Instead, he turned around and pounced on Simon, who was slowly retreating.
What is he doing? Trying to kill me?
Sicar, who was looking for an opportunity while retreating, was surprised. Then, he became slightly happy and began to move his body left and right at a steady pace. Two golden leopard claws swung out consecutively, creating a powerful wind pressure. Grimm's Fire Shield trembled from the force of his claws even though he was 27 meters away.
At such a distance, he was 80% sure that he could dodge Grimm's attack and then take advantage of the time Grimm needed to cast a spell to close in and kill him. Moreover, Flender's water dragon wave was right behind Grimm, and the three fireballs would not be able to block it. As long as he could hold Grimm back, Flender would definitely be able to use this opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the Fire Demon.
Countless calculations flashed through Sicar's mind, and he unquestionably chose to press forward.
Grimm had no doubt predicted Sicar's decision!
It could even be said that Sicar's decision was largely due to Grimm's intentional guidance.
He did not repair the missing lava shield in time, and when Flender's big move was about to hit Sicar, plus Grimm had been intentionally misleading Sicar since the start of the battle, and he did not have the means to instantly injure Grimm … All these factors finally made Sicar, who was overconfident in his own strength, make a wrong decision.
The three lava fireballs that exploded behind him formed a wave of wild flame ripples, causing Flender's mighty water dragon wave to be intercepted by a few fingers.
During these few seconds, Grimm, who had transformed into a Fire Demon, raised his hands up high, and a terrifying fire cloud filled with lava bubbles appeared above his head in an instant.
Facing Grimm's terrifying spell, Sicar did not have the slightest intention of retreating. Instead, he was like a shark that smelled blood. His body quickly flashed, and in just a few seconds, he was already in front of Grimm.
According to Sicar's calculations, he only needed to spend a few seconds to break through the wind dragon's wind barrier, then he could easily cut to the Fire Demon's side and use 'Savage Strike' to interrupt the Fire Demon's large-scale spell. At that time, if the Fire Demon wanted to get rid of him, it would be a delusion if he did not pay a price in blood!
Unfortunately, just as he arrived in front of Grimm, the wind dragon under the tall Fire Demon suddenly opened its huge mouth, and a loud and clear dragon roar filled his ears.
Along with the dragon roar was a vast and unstoppable dragon aura!
'Dragon aura?'
As soon as this name appeared in his mind, Sicar felt his body tremble slightly, and his spirit was shaken to the point that he could not control himself. He … actually fell into a 'Spirit Shock' state at the most crucial moment!
Sicar, who had a vicious expression on his face just a moment ago, was now scared out of his wits!
'Damn it, why is it dragon aura?
Isn't dragon aura something only real dragons can have? Don't tell me … Don't tell me this brat used a real dragon crystal to make this dragon-shaped puppet? '
He figured out the whole story in an instant, but it was already too late!
The terrifying fire cloud that was surging just a moment ago was instantly dispersed by Grimm. From his relaxed movements, it could be seen that the Burning Cloud spell was just a pretense. Otherwise, even with Grimm's extraordinary talent, it would be difficult to disperse such a large-scale fire spell without paying a price.
When Sicar's face was filled with fear, and he could not control his body, the Fire Demon's huge magma hand opened up, and a glowing red spell book appeared without a sound.
* Whoosh … *
The thick parchment quickly flipped. Every time it flipped to a new page, a three-dimensional yet small strange rune and countless incantations that were hard to decipher would appear on the originally blank page.
As Grimm's spirit continued to vibrate, one powerful single target spell after another was launched at the speed of one per second.
