Norfeller was different from Lin Li's other servants. The others, including Ujfalusi, were only loyal to Lin Li because of the constraints of the Soul Contract. On the other hand, Norfeller took the initiative to establish the Blood Contract because of his loyalty to Lin Li. Although it was due to the last words of his former master, Lin Li truly regarded him as one of his own.
Hence, as soon as Lin Li stabilized his body, he turned around and saw this scene. He was immediately shocked and enraged. He raised his hand to release Thunderbolt, the debris of the stars, and a ray of lightning shot towards Osric's body with infinite power. Although he knew that Nothingness could create a spatial rift, and would likely lead Thunderbolt into the chaos of time and space, he couldn't care less at this juncture.
Indeed, Osric did not dare to belittle Thunderbolt's attack. He immediately retracted Nothingness that was about to end Norfeller, and waved his hand to create a spatial rift. Just as Lin Li had expected, the thunderbolt shot into the spatial rift, and disappeared without a trace after a series of flashes.
However, seeing that Thunderbolt had disappeared, Lin Li suddenly had a look of joy on his face. He did not know if it was because the power of Thunderbolt was too strong, or if he had already reached a certain level of mastery of Thunderbolt, but he could still feel a trace of Thunderbolt's aura even though it had disappeared in the spatial rift. That meant that there might be a chance to reopen the spatial rift and get Thunderbolt back after obtaining Nothingness. Of course, in order to obtain Nothingness, he would have to defeat Osric, which was too slim for Lin Li.
Taking advantage of the opportunity when Osric blocked Thunderbolt, Norfeller quickly left the battlefield, and returned to the crowd that had not participated in the battle. It was definitely impossible for everyone to swarm up against a powerhouse like Osric. For example, the mages would not be able to withstand a single blow from Osric. Although there was already a real Retribution Knight among Lin Li's Death Knights, they would not be of any use in a battle of this level. Even Legendary powerhouses like Ujfalusi and the Lord of Nightmares could not intervene in this battle at all. They would only be killed by Osric like ants.
Hence, the four Legendary-mages, Lin Li, Andoine, Rosen, and Aldwin, as well as the Titan-level Alchemy Colossus controlled by the goblin Angelano. Of course, the few of them would not end up well if they were not careful. In front of Osric, Legendary-mages were just like ants.
The only thing to be thankful for was that although Osric had level-26 or level-27 power, he had not used any magic at all. He had been acting more like a Warrior during the battle. Otherwise, he would have killed everyone instantly if he had used a Sanctuary-level magic spell. Lin Li secretly speculated that it was very likely to have something to do with the perfect body that had yet to fuse with the soul. After all, be it a Sanctuary Master or a mage apprentice, casting magic required mental strength as the foundation, and mental strength was the source of the soul. However, that did not mean that Lin Li and the others could defeat Osric. A perfect level-26 or level-27 body coupled with the powerful debris of the stars, Nothingness, was still not something that Lin Li and the others could contend with.
The steel spear in the hands of the Alchemy Colossus was easily sliced in half by Osric's Nothingness, and its body was covered with wounds of various sizes. Angelano, who was controlling the Alchemy Colossus, gradually sobered up from his madness at this moment. His heart was immediately drowned by endless fear, and he almost did not dare to attack Osric again.
The situation of Lin Li and the others was getting worse. No matter how powerful the magic they cast, it would be dispelled by Osric with a wave of his hand. Meanwhile, they were being forced into a dangerous situation by Osric. The gorgeous and precious magic robes on their bodies had become beggars' clothes under the slashes of Nothingness. They had long lost the original function of the magic robe, and it was difficult for them to even cover their bodies. It was as if they did not know pain. Blood was splashed in all directions from time to time as their bodies moved. Although they were getting more and more desperate, they still continued to cast the most powerful magic that they had mastered.
Rosen suddenly flashed to the periphery of the battle circle, and his expression changed, as if he was making a difficult decision. Finally, he gritted his teeth and took out the magic staff that he used to summon the wyrms again. He slowly recited the summoning spell. As he recited the spell, Rosen's expression became more and more pained, and the two magical gems on the magic staff gradually lit up.
"Roar!" A deafening roar sounded, and the two ancient wyrms pounced on Osric angrily. At this moment, Rosen could not help but spit out a mouthful of blood, and the two magical gems on the magic staff shattered. Obviously, the two wyrms that were defeated by the Scourged Ankylodons had appeared again at this time, and Rosen had paid a huge price. His summoning staff had lost its function forever.
Although the two ancient wyrms had not reached the Sanctuary-realm, their participation had more or less helped the group to a certain extent. However, looking at the increasing number of wounds on the wyrms, this little bit of help would definitely not last for long. Rosen, who had just summoned the two wyrms, raised his hand and drank a bottle of potion to suppress the injuries on his body. Then, he changed his magic staff and joined in the siege against Osric again.
"Fire Demon, summon the group of Zago Demons here. Let him have a taste of what it's like to have too many ants bite an elephant to death!" Lin Li commanded the Fire Demon King in Balak's magical crystal while chanting spells and waving his magic staff. Of course, Lin Li knew that although the group of Zago Demons was very strong, it was still far from enough to reach the stage where ants could bite an elephant to death.
Since it was a matter of life and death, the Fire Demon King did not dare to hesitate. A wave of mental strength that carried the aura of Tyrant Balak immediately spread towards the depths of the abyss. Very soon, the Black Current that was formed by the densely packed Zago Demons appeared at the end of everyone's line of sight. Just like what they had seen before, it was like a raging tide that was rapidly spreading towards them.
In the sky, there were a few Zago Lords that floated like dark clouds. Perhaps they had also sensed Osric's strength, and did not even try to probe him. Instead, they immediately sent more than 10 Scourged Ankylodons towards them. On the ground, apart from the Sickle Black-armored Demons that formed the Black Current, there were also hundreds of Hell Pythons and six Mammoth Behemoths that were the size of small hills.
Who would have thought that the Zago Demons would still be able to bring out such a powerful force after the previous battle? Although they already knew that these Zago Demons were controlled by Lin Li and would be on the same side as them this time, they could not help but shudder in fear.
However, as the Zago Demons approached them, Osric sneered and looked at Lin Li with disdain. He arrogantly said, "If I can conquer them once, I can conquer them a second time!"
Lin Li panicked under Osric's gaze. Although he wanted to find a reason to refute, his rationality told him that what Osric said was definitely not a lie. Back then, Osric came to the 72nd floor of the abyss alone to face the ancient demon Balak. Faced with the powerful army of Zago Demons, he still managed to kill Balak and obtain Balak's magical crystal. Although the current Osric was only a body controlled by the Soul Imprint, Lin Li did not have the powerful help of Tyrant Balak, and the Zago Demons were no longer what they used to be.
The Black Current formed by the Zago Demons finally surged into the battlefield. The Scourged Ankylodons in the sky also pounced towards Osric. However, in the face of the Zago Demon Army that had once made Lin Li and the rest despair, Osric merely swung the spear in his hand to the left and right. Every time the illusory spear swept past, a vacuum would appear in the Black Current. The cracks in the space that were continuously created devoured all kinds of Zago Demons mercilessly. No matter what level the Zago Demons were, they were all so weak in front of Osric. Their sturdy shells seemed to be made of paper in front of the cracks in the space.
The position where Osric stood was like an endless black hole, continuously devouring the Zago Demons that were surging towards him. The originally boundless Black Current was decreasing at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye. Finally, the edge of the Black Current was revealed in front of everyone's eyes. This was the scene that everyone had been looking forward to the most, but now, it made them sink into deep despair. Even the terrifying army of Zago Demons could not hurt Osric at all. What right did they have to continue fighting?
The gold and silver Wyrms fell one after another, and the Black Current also gradually disappeared. Other than the Zago Lord that was like a dark cloud in the sky, there were no longer any Scourged Ankylodons circling around. Be it the lowest level Sickle Black-armored Demons or the Mammoth Behemoths that were the size of small hills, not a single corpse was left behind after being devoured by the cracks in the space. Osric was still the same as before. He stood there coldly and arrogantly, holding the spear that had morphed into nothingness in his hand. There were no traces of battle on his body, and even the magical wave was as calm as ever. Perhaps to Osric, this was indeed not a battle. The Zago Demons that once made Lin Li and the rest despair did not affect him at all.
At this moment, Lin Li was no longer holding the Helios' Scepter in his hand, but a small and exquisite crossbow. Lin Li finally decided to go all out. The three pieces of the debris of the stars, Holy Light, Gloomy Dark, and Rebirth, turned into arrows one by one, and were placed on the Crossbow of Reincarnation. With the insertion of the three pieces of the debris of the stars, the magical wave emitted by Lin Li's body also increased rapidly. Step by step, it climbed to the peak, and even approached the Sanctuary-realm.
