In an instant, magical elements rose in the square, and magic runes scattered in all directions amidst the gorgeous light and shadow. All kinds of spells collided with each other, stirring up dazzling sparks in the Daylight Square.
"President Gerian, the situation doesn't look good. Do you think Felic will …" The Mannes Family was the first to lean towards the Guild of Magic. The battle in the middle of the square made Ysera's heart clench. Seeing the various spells released by Cromwell wreaking havoc while Lin Li could only struggle to survive with an Elemental Shield, the young patriarch could not help but reveal some worry in his voice.
"What do you mean by 'will'? Open your eyes wide and watch. In less than a minute, Felic will kill that idiot Cromwell! " Gerian glared at Ysera, his heart filled with rage. You're telling me that the situation isn't good at this critical juncture? Are you a f * cking crow?
"Gerian, what's the use of getting angry here? Even a blind man can see the situation now. Your mage Felic won't be able to hold on much longer. "
Old Merlin's lukewarm voice fell into his ears, and immediately made Gerian furious. "Matthew, you idiot, I don't want to lower myself to your level, but you'd better shut your mouth. Don't really piss me off, or else the tortoise shell of your Merlin Family may not be able to protect you."
Hearing the words "tortoise shell", Aaron Matsis, who was sitting below, suddenly felt a chill on his back …
"Gerian, you don't have to yell there. Strength is strength. It's useless no matter how angry you are."
In the middle of the Daylight Square, Cromwell had already gained an absolute advantage. A large number of low-level spells formed an Elemental Storm, constantly devouring the faint halo of the Elemental Shield. After a long period of forbearance, he finally reaped the rewards today. It made Old Merlin very happy, so happy that he could even ignore the insult in Gerian's words.
Cromwell's advantage was too great. The continuous magical attacks had already shaken the Elemental Shield that Lin Li had just put up. If he hadn't relied on the Mana Retroaction to delay time, he would have been hit directly by Cromwell's spells.
Cromwell laughed maniacally amidst the brilliant magic light. The humiliation he had suffered for the past month seemed to have been vented in the endless elemental storm. It was such a delightful feeling. He even hoped that the Elemental Shield on his opponent would collapse a little later so that he could enjoy the process of devastation to his heart's content …
Looking at the situation in front of him, even Gerian had to admit that Lin Li had completely fallen into a desperate situation.
It was a complete and overwhelming advantage, and there was no power to fight back at all.
In the beginning, he could still use some auxiliary spells to fight back, but after Cromwell set up the Mental Protection Field and used two scrolls unexpectedly, Lin Li no longer had a chance to attack. The only thing he could do now was to keep switching between the Ice Armor and the Elemental Shield, and occasionally use the Mana Retroaction to delay time. Other than that, he could only watch Cromwell release spells one by one, letting them shine brightly on the Elemental Shield.
"Boom!" Another fireball exploded on the Elemental Shield. Under the impact of that huge force, Lin Li took a dozen steps back in a row.
The flames were burning all around, and the light of the Elemental Shield dimmed. In the midst of the flames, Lin Li seemed to hear a sharp sound breaking through the air.
The collapse of the Elemental Shield and the Mana Retroaction of the Ice Armor were all within the cooldown period. Lin Li could only watch as a wind blade swept past his leg …
"Chi!" There was only a soft sound, and Lin Li felt a numbness in his leg, followed by a sharp pain. His right leg seemed to have lost its strength all of a sudden, and then he knelt softly on the square …
Cromwell walked out of the flames, his eyes fixed on Lin Li who was kneeling on the ground. His expression was full of the pleasure of revenge. The smile on his face was distorted and hideous under the reflection of the flames, like a venomous snake eyeing its prey.
"Long time no see, Mage Felic, hahahaha …" Cromwell shot out another wind blade in the midst of his maniacal laughter. This time, the target of the wind blade was Lin Li's left leg.
At that time, there was only a splash of blood. Without the support of his left leg, Lin Li fell down with a plop like a wooden stake.
There was a burst of exclamations from the stands. Everyone, including Castellan Isaac and a group of wealthy businessmen and celebrities, could see that the outcome of this duel had been completely decided. Many people did not expect that the final winner would be Cromwell, and not the young pharmacist from the Guild of Magic.
At this time, the outcome had been decided. Old Merlin finally stood up proudly and applauded Cromwell in the square. From the corner of his eyes, he glanced at Gerian, intentionally or unintentionally. "I've said it before, it's useless to be angry. Strength is strength!"
Listening to Old Merlin's annoying applause, Gerian's face was already livid.
But even Gerian, who had infinite confidence in Lin Li, had to admit at this time that the duel in the square had been decided. The gap of as high as two levels could not be made up for at all. The reason why Cromwell had not killed Lin Li yet was just to enjoy the fun of a cat chasing a mouse …
"Castellan Isaac, if the Guild of Magic admits defeat, can you stop this duel?"
When Gerian said this, almost everyone thought they had heard it wrong. Was this really the Gerian from the Guild of Magic? The Gerian who had never bowed his head to any force even in the most desolate days of the Guild of Magic?
In the face of everyone's astonished eyes, Gerian could only smile bitterly.
With his vision, how could he not see that the duel in the square had been completely decided? The only difference was Felic's life and death. There was still a chance if he admitted defeat, but he would definitely die if he did not.
In this month of getting along, although the two had always been somewhat impolite when they spoke, in Gerian's heart, he had always cherished this young mage as a nephew. He could not watch him die without doing anything.
In order to save him, Gerian did not even hesitate to put down his dignity and bow his head to the Merlin Family for the first time.
But Isaac's answer was unusually cruel. "I'm sorry, President Gerian, I have to maintain the fairness of the duel. If you want to stop the duel, it must be agreed by both parties. That is to say … if Patriarch Matthew agrees …"
"Gerian, if you kneel down to me, maybe I'll consider your request …" Old Merlin laughed, enjoying the pleasure of teasing Gerian. He had not enjoyed the pleasure of seeing Gerian bow his head in front of him for a long time. Since the battle outside the Emerald Tower, the Guild of Magic had completely overridden the Merlin Family, and Gerian had taken the initiative in the confrontation between the two men since then.
"You …" Gerian stared at the laughing Old Merlin; his eyes seemed to be on fire. At that moment, he had even released a trace of mana. He wanted to blast that annoying smiling face of Old Merlin with a fireball.
But in the next moment, he saw Lin Li's bloody legs and Cromwell, who was approaching him. The trace of mana that Gerian had just released suddenly disappeared without a trace, and the furious look on his face gradually turned into hesitation …
Cromwell's face was full of a happy smile. "Mage Felic, can you still stand up?"
"You'll know when you come and have a look …" Lin Li tried to squeeze a smile on his face, but because of his carelessness, it affected the wound, making the smile look extremely ugly.
At the same time, a trace of mana had already poured into the Torrent of Elements Ring. Lin Li only needed to amplify this trace of mana, and the ring would instantly create a channel to channel the magical elements that were about to surge into the ring.
