[It's close to the end of the month, so I can't ask for monthly votes anymore. There are only ten days left. In the future, I won't waste time on chapters. I'll write at least three chapters a day, and at least three thousand chapters per chapter. With everyone's support, I'll try my best to write more on this basis. If I write too much, it'll be watered down. I'm definitely not willing to do that, so 12,000 is my limit. My typing speed isn't fast, so this will take up almost all of my time.
Most of the wind blades missed, and Salin had no time to make up for it. He could only mechanically open another wind blade scroll. He still couldn't control wind magic, so he could only rely on the wind blades to block the enemies.
The stone spears on the ground would last for at least half an hour. The magical beasts leapt up one after another. Salin's Wind Blades had already been cast over a dozen times. Because he couldn't lock onto a target, a dozen magical beasts had already closed in on him within twenty meters.
Salin calmly released three Illusory Swamps in a row, and the used scrolls had already piled up at his feet. Without control spells to weaken the attacks, the Wind Blades were very ineffective. Most of the Magical Beasts that were hit by the Wind Blades used their Magic Shields to block the Wind Blades. Only a few of the Wind Blades bypassed the Magic Shields due to the angle of the Wind Blades and only scratched the Magical Beasts.
Magic strings weren't needed to release the magic scrolls, but to control the magic scrolls required a certain level of familiarity.
The three Illusory Swamps were accurately arranged into a triangle by Salin, blocking the path of the magical beasts. There was a one-meter gap between the three Illusory Swamps, which the magical beasts could pass through. However, this gap was ingeniously left. The magical beasts needed to turn and slow down within this narrow gap to continue forward.
Salin had already killed over 40 magical beasts with the scrolls, and he finally experienced the feeling of using gold coins to smash people. The cheapest third-level magic scrolls cost three to five hundred gold coins. If the scrolls were specially made or stored for a long time, they could even exceed a thousand gold coins.
In a short three minutes, Salin had used over 50 scrolls. If he didn't have strong mental strength, he would definitely have fainted. It was a wonderful feeling to throw out over 20,000 gold coins. When the speed at which you spent money reached a certain level, you would experience the power of money. As long as you had enough money, you could really look down on everyone else.
Salin was only a third-level Magician. Under normal circumstances, he could only wait for death when facing over a hundred fourth-level magical beasts. But now, he calmly opened the scroll and focused on attacking the magical beasts that passed through the gaps of the three illusory swamps.
The situation didn't look good. Perhaps he could use the scrolls to get through this crisis, but the fourth rank magical beasts in the Hell of God Punishment were moving in packs, which meant that there were many powerful creatures in this demiplane. In Myers Continent, the Demonic Wolves were only Level 2 to Level 3 creatures, and the number of each group was no more than a dozen. Furthermore, the Hell of God Punishment had dispatched more than three hundred of them at a time. With so many magical beasts gathered together on the Myers Continent, they could only be Level-1 Magical Beasts.
The Magic Beast Chief anxiously paced around the camp. It had roughly understood that this kind of attack was ineffective against the enemy, and it ferociously looked at the mages casting spells within the camp. The Magic Beast Chief let out a muffled roar, and the attacking magic beasts stopped and spat out fireballs from their mouths towards the camp.
More than two hundred fireballs shot out. It was a spectacular scene. Salin squatted down without hesitation. The fireballs shattered his Illusory Swamp and hit the magic barrier of the campsite.
The magic array in the center of the campsite was activated, and darkness enveloped the entire campsite. The more than two hundred fireballs seemed to have fallen into water, and at least half of them were extinguished before the dark space was destroyed.
The moment the dark space collapsed, Salin unfolded a Level-4 magic scroll, Stone Wall. Stone Wall was not as sturdy as Crystal City, but it still reflected the sturdiness of earth magic. Dozens of fireballs smashed onto the thick stone wall before it was destroyed.
Salin continued to release magic, and the Level-3 Acid Rain fell from the sky. He opened three scrolls in a row, and the acid rain had already formed a large area. The nearest few magical beasts were drenched by the acid rain, and white smoke rose from their bodies. Their fur melted, and their wounds were badly mutilated.
These injured magical beasts fiercely pounced on him, and Salin calmly continued to open scrolls. Shika held her staff and swept it out, hitting the forehead of a magical beast. Her speed was much faster than before. The magical beast flew over the camp's spike-covered walls, and its head was directly smashed in mid-air.
Shika's control of her power was extremely precise. The magical beast's corpse did not fly out, but fell vertically, and pierced the sharp metal spikes. All the power of Shika's staff was used on the magical beast's head, and not a single bit was wasted.
The magical beasts seemed to only have the power for one attack, and no longer shot fireballs. Instead, they took this opportunity to pass through the obstacles Salin had set up, and spread out at an astonishing speed.
Shika's staff did not make any sound, but it danced in an illusory manner that the naked eye could not discern. Salin used all his energy to release scrolls, and the magical beasts jumped over the walls one after another. While releasing magic, Salin called out, "Neris!"
Neris was trembling, and Salin thought she was frightened. In fact, Neris was excited. The smell of the magical beasts was much better than the tentacles in the tree. The temperature of the blood in her body rose, and a golden light flashed in her green eyes.
Food! It was all food! The smell of food from the Demonic Plane!
Neris made a low growl in her throat, and suddenly jumped over the walls of the camp, and rushed to the other side of Salin. Salin was slightly distracted, and a magical beast pounced on him while he was releasing scrolls. Shika threw a boomerang, and it cut open the neck of the magical beast. Dark purple blood spurted out, and Salin was shocked. Another magical beast was already in front of him.
Neris was a little out of control. She was supposed to stand by Salin's side, and watch out for the magical beasts that escaped. Now she rushed into the group of magical beasts, and her body was strong. She directly hugged the neck of a magical beast, and twisted it hard. With a crack, the head of the magical beast was directly twisted off by Neris. Blood spurted out, and Neris opened her mouth freely, and inhaled crazily.
This feeling was like chasing those magical insects or familiars in the Demonic Plane. She dropped the head of the magical beast in her arms, and rushed to the left. Her fingernails painted with flower juice pierced into the neck of the magical beast on the left. The magical beast twisted its body in pain, and its steel-chain-like tail stabbed towards Neris's face.
Neris opened her mouth, and with her mouth still dripping with blood, she bit off the metallic tail of the magical beast. The hand that was inserted into the neck of the magical beast exerted force, and the head of the magical beast was turned around. Neris's other hand pierced into the eye socket of the magical beast. She somewhat crazily stirred the palm that was inserted into the head of the magical beast, and touched the magical beast's magic core. Only then did she pull her hand out, and swallowed the magic core that was mixed with brain juice and blood.
This magic core was the size of an egg, and incomparably delicious. Neris felt a warm current flowing in her chest, and her strength suddenly increased a little. She quickly turned around, and with a pinch of her palms, she slapped the ear of the magical beast that was pouncing on her. With a poof, the head was crushed, and a blue magic core flew out. Neris jumped up, bit it in her mouth, and chewed it into pieces.
The magical beasts around her were momentarily frightened. Facing Salin's magic, they did not stop attacking without regard for their lives. But the aura emitted from Neris was too similar to those powerful magical beasts deep in the forest.
Salin also felt Neris's excitement, and even his emotions were stirred up. His mental strength became more solid and focused, and the speed at which he released the scrolls also increased a lot. This was the first time he experienced this feeling. It was like a swordsman entering the state of battle.
Mages paid attention to balance, while swordsmen paid attention to explosiveness. Every attack had to be at the peak of explosiveness. That was how they could display the powerful attack power of a mage. Salin now had the feeling of explosiveness. He set up three illusory swamps at almost the same time, and re-sealed half of the camp. Then, he released his independent magic — Ice Arrow.
It was very difficult for a level-two magic to hurt a level-four magical beast. But at this time, in Salin's eyes, the movements of those magical beasts became slow, and it became easier to calculate their weaknesses. Magical beasts did not have human martial arts, and only relied on speed and strength to fight. When the magical beasts lost their advantage in speed, Salin's Figaro's magic formula could finally be put to use.
The Ice Arrow pierced through the bodies of the magical beasts. Once the defense was broken, the freezing effect of the Ice Arrow burst out. The area around the penetrating wound was already frozen, and Shika only needed to throw a boomerang to easily kill it.
Rex only used level-four and level-five scrolls, and basically every scroll could kill at least one magical beast. She had no time to be distracted and didn't know the situation behind her, so she ordered the two swordsmen, Hall and Bai Meng, to help Salin. Hall and Bai Meng turned around to help, but saw Neris charging left and right in the horde of magical beasts, her body covered in dark purple blood.
Hall and Bai Meng were shocked. Both of them knew that without the protection of a mage and the camp, they would definitely be torn into pieces once they fell into the horde of magical beasts. Now, the magical beasts around Neris clearly did not dare to come close. Neris was chasing her prey!
That magical beast leader saw that its subordinates were almost all slaughtered, but it did not escape alone. Instead, it went around the half of the camp controlled by Rex, and pounced in Salin's direction.
Salin had been paying attention to the movements of the magical beast leader. Once it appeared, Salin contacted the puppet. That magical beast leader pretended to pounce at Neris, and Neris turned sideways to grab its tail. The magical beast leader made a sly turn, went around Neris, and went straight to the camp.
Its gorgeous red fur spread out, and its body flew into the air with an afterimage. In the small puddle in front of it, a black shadow jumped up vertically. It was the witcher spider that had been waiting for a long time. When the witcher spider was not moving, it was lifeless and could not be detected at all. With this pounce, the witcher spider's long legs hung on the abdomen of the magical beast leader. Its front claws opened, and it tore open the tough abdomen of the magical beast, burrowing in.
The magical beast leader heavily fell to the ground. Neris had already caught up from behind and directly jumped onto the back of the magical beast leader. Her hand reached into the back of the magical beast leader's head and grabbed the monster core, stuffing it into her mouth. Hall and Bai Meng had goosebumps all over. What was the background of such a woman!?
With the death of the magical beast leader, the remaining 30-odd magical beasts no longer persisted in attacking. They retreated far away, howling at the sky.
"Master!" Neris shouted in the demon language, and fell straight down from the back of the magical beast leader. Salin was shocked. He jumped out of the camp and ran towards Neris. Sicca followed behind nervously, not knowing what had happened.
Salin came to Neris's side. Neris was moaning weakly, lying in the muddy water. Salin squatted down and said anxiously, "Neris, what happened to you?"
