The words that Mason was about to say were stuck in his throat. Under the pressure of the huge death aura, Mason laughed awkwardly. After scratching his head, he whispered to Lin Li, "F * ck, it's so temperamental. Could it be that it was a woman when it was alive? Alright, when I go back, I'll tell everyone that Bhaskar is actually a woman … "
"…"
"Idiot." Orrin's voice came from behind. "Do you think this is a story told by a bard?"
"But, no matter what, I thank you for telling me this." Bhaskar's hoarse voice had a sinister cruelty to it. "In return, I'll wait until the last moment to kill you. You can watch your companions die one by one, and enjoy their desperate screams before they die. Also … after killing you, I'll preserve your soul. You can stay with me in the Shadowglen. You have a few hundred years to tell me stories about the outside world …"
"You're welcome …" Mason's smile was uglier than his crying face.
"That's for trying to get close to me!" Orrin glared at him.
"Bhaskar, do you think you've won?" Sarsen exuded a strong magical wave when he walked out of the cave.
"I can't believe that after 1,200 years, humans are still so arrogant …" Before Bhaskar's voice died away, a huge wave of mental strength had already surged towards him like a tide.
At the same time, Sarsen had also set up a Mental Protection Field. After all, his strength was not comparable to Kayla's. The Mental Protection Field was set up, and it was able to withstand Bhaskar's mental attack steadily. Then, the magic staff in Sarsen's hand flashed, and a fireball flew out with a "boom".
"Ridiculous!" In the face of such a powerful fireball, the Lich in the sky was still calm. He snorted coldly, and an Elemental Shield was raised in an instant. Then, he waved his staff again, and outside the colorful Elemental Shield, there was a pile of white bones that lingered.
This was a Skeletal Shield unique to Undead creatures. It had a strong defense against both magical and physical attacks.
"You're the funny one, Bhaskar!" Sarsen was not discouraged in the face of the double shield. After a hasty recitation, another flame rose into the sky. This time, it was a Flame Spear. It seemed that he had given up and wanted to use fire magic to blast Bhaskar to death.
Lin Li stood quietly at the entrance of the cave and saw everything. Even he had to admit that Sarsen had the right to be arrogant. Be it his skills in casting spells or his control of mana, they were considered outstanding. With his abilities as a level-13 Magic Shooter, it was commendable for him to be able to compete with a Lich that was at least level-15.
In terms of strength, Bhaskar had an absolute advantage. The Skeletal Shield, Elemental Shield, and double shields were simply considerate and thorough, making it difficult for Sarsen's magic to pose a threat to it. The omnipresent Mental Shock was equivalent to a Mana Retroaction without any spell exhaustion, constantly interfering with Sarsen's spellcasting.
In order to successfully complete the recitation, Sarsen had to divert part of his attention to maintain the Mental Protection Field at all times.
Multitasking was the most fatal thing for a Mage in the first place.
Even in a battle of the same level, diverting part of his attention to maintain the Mental Protection Field would put him at a disadvantage instantly, not to mention this battle that was already unbalanced.
To be honest, Lin Li was not optimistic about Sarsen's chances at the beginning. The gap between them was too big, and there was also the fatal Mental Shock. Even if he were to be optimistic, Sarsen would probably be defeated within 30 seconds. However, the development after that was far beyond Lin Li's expectations.
With his skillful casting skills and precise control of mana, Sarsen actually dragged the battle to a stalemate.
"This fella is not bad …" Lin Li nodded, but was not in a hurry to attack. Instead, he quietly opened the Ring of Endless Storm, and at the same time, inserted a trace of mana into the Torrent of Elements.
"Mage Felic …" After drinking a bottle of Recovery Potion, Kayla's injuries had recovered a little. Although his face was still a little pale, it was no longer a problem for him to walk. Now that Sarsen was in a stalemate with the Lich, Kayla could not sit still anymore. He walked to Lin Li with a face full of anxiety, and said very softly, "Now is a good opportunity …"
"Oh," Lin Li answered absentmindedly, but his eyes were still focused on the battle not far away.
Kayla waited for a long time, but did not hear anything else. He could not help but feel anxious. "Mage Felic, you are the strongest among us. If you do not attack now, I'm afraid Sarsen …"
This time, Lin Li did not even turn his head. "What's the hurry? Let's wait and see."
"…"
Kayla really wanted to bang his head on the mountain wall. He could not understand how this seemingly strong mage could be so stupid. Sarsen had already dragged the battle into a stalemate. At this time, even a fool would know that with just one more straw, the camel Bhaskar would be completely crushed!
This kind of opportunity was really hard to come by …
This stalemate was really too fragile. Perhaps in the next second, Sarsen would be at a complete disadvantage. Why couldn't this damned mage from Jarrosus understand? Could it be that he was waiting for Sarsen to be defeated, and then put on a show of personal heroism?
"To hell with the chivalry …" Kayla cursed in his heart. Of course, he would never dare to say such words in front of Lin Li. This fella was not a normal person. What if he was angered and ignited him with the Flaming Hands?
Lin Li looked at him, and did not explain much.
Lin Li was very clear about what Kayla was thinking, but he did not intend to explain.
With this fella's cowardly character, what chivalry? What personal heroism? How could it be more important than his own life? If it was possible, Lin Li was actually very willing to lead a group of followers to fight an enemy alone.
The problem was that it was not possible now.
There were some things that he understood better than Kayla.
Sarsen's strength was indeed not weak. With the standard of a level-13 Magic Shooter, he was able to withstand a Lich that was at least level-15. However, this stalemate was actually just a false glory. Based on the surrounding mana waves, Lin Li could say with certainty that Bhaskar was not using its full strength.
Lin Li could clearly see that the Lich had not used any spells above level-10 since the beginning of the battle!
In a normal battle, this was almost impossible …
That was a creature above level-15, and it had lived for more than 1,200 years. Its age was even older than an old monster like Andoine. In its long life, the number of times it had cast magic could only be calculated in astronomical figures. For such a monster, the difficulty of casting spells was just like floating clouds.
For a creature like the Lich, it could completely cast spells of the same level as itself, and did not have to worry about losing control of its mana. This was the advantage that it had accumulated over time.
There could only be one reason why it only used spells below level-10 — it was toying with Sarsen!
There was no doubt that toying with someone was a very personal matter.
Lin Li asked himself if he was the one toying with someone, and was disturbed, he would most likely fly into a rage. Whether he could kill Bhaskar at this time was one thing, but the most important thing was whether he would anger the old man and cause it to suddenly erupt with all its power …
This kind of thing was actually like having sex.
It was very dangerous to disturb someone when they were having sex. Lin Li did not dare to do such a wicked thing …
Moreover …
He already had some small ideas about the battle in front of him. There was no need to mess up his overall plan just to gamble on a chance.
Unfortunately …
Kayla, however, did not know what Lin Li was thinking about. Seeing him dilly-dallying, he became extremely anxious. He did not care about his injuries, and began to recite a long spell after discussing with his two companions in a low voice.
"Sigh …" Lin Li shook his head, and only sighed slightly. He did not say anything to stop them. Anyway, they were not friends, and Lin Li had no sympathy for them. Even if they were to disturb the Lich's sex, they were asking for it. Peeping Toms always had to pay the price …
Sarsen was evenly matched with the Lich, and the recitation of the three peeping Toms was soon coming to an end …
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The three of them completed the recitation almost at the same time, and the three magic staffs lit up at the same time.
