Most people thought that Mages could only fight from a distance. Once a Swordsman got close, it would be very dangerous. This idea was wrong. Many spells had to be cast at close range to have a chance of killing the enemy. Such spells often had strong attributes. For Mages who controlled magic, it was a severe test to use such spells under any circumstances.
For example, the Crystal Finger that Salin had obtained from Rafael had an attack range of no more than ten meters. In the beginning, it might not even reach three meters. There were many similar spells, but they were also very unpopular. No Mage liked to fight Swordsman at close range. Since they could solve the problem from a distance, why take the risk?
Now, Salin and Rex had to take the risk. The enemy's armor ability was unheard of. It could increase the power of a Bronze Sword Saint by three levels, reaching the level of a Gold Sword Saint. No matter what the consequences of such an increase were, it would be fatal for Salin and Rex.
Salin had planned to fight with his life. If he gave up Sicar and Nelis in exchange for his life, he didn't know how he would be able to live. Continue studying magic? But when he jumped out of the sea, he saw that Ferret had been hit by an alchemy crossbow. His neck suffered a strong impact, and his head tilted to the side.
Salin saw the opportunity. Under normal circumstances, if a person received such an injury, his whole body would be paralyzed. Even if Ferret was really a Gold Sword Saint, he would still be seriously injured. Sword Saints were not Mages. If their necks couldn't move, they would lose most of their combat power.
Under the effect of the scroll Salin had tossed out, the already monstrous waves on the surface of the sea sprayed out several dozen huge streams of water, crashing against the stern of the ship. These currents were messy, and Salin didn't want to control them. He just wanted Ferret to run around and create opportunities for himself and Rex.
Salin flew on the waves. The huge whirlpool created by the waves under his feet looked dazzling. Lightning flashed in the dark sky from time to time, illuminating the sinking ship in the storm.
The mist around Salin became thicker and thicker. Finally, it was as thick as the dark clouds in the sky. The thick mist seemed to be solid. It lifted Salin higher and higher. Wind Speed mutated again. Salin found that when he passed through the waves, the violent whirlpool didn't produce any suction force. Instead, all the water elements around him had an inexplicable connection with him.
It was as if he was a mass of water that merged into the sea. But at this time, Salin's Magic Strings were being consumed imperceptibly. He understood that he had suddenly comprehended a new type of magic!
This was probably the result of Joey's transformation of his body. Salin's affinity with the water element had reached an unprecedented level. He began to actively absorb the water elements, causing the mist around his body to increase. Finally, it formed a cloud with a diameter of more than a hundred meters. Salin seemed to be weightless in the clouds and could move freely.
This spell was much better than Windspeed. Just like Wind Soaring, it allowed Salin to fly in the air. The cloud was as black as ink, but Salin could still see everything outside with his' Icy Vision 'activated. This cloud was even more effective than the black fog. Salin was overjoyed. He flew up more than two hundred meters and realized that the higher he went, the more obvious the consumption of his Magic String became. Every ten meters he went up, the consumption rate of his Magic String almost doubled.
However, this was enough. Salin had originally been afraid that he would be killed by the berserk Sword Saint if he got too close to Felette. Now that he was flying in the air, Freddie couldn't even raise its head in his hand. To a Magician, he was a live target.
Boom!
The flames on the surface of Rex's body expanded violently. Hundreds of Fire Crows danced around her. Dozens of meters around her were all within the attack range of Rex's flames. The Divine Sifter Ring on Rex's hand emitted a faint golden light that surrounded her body. If Felette could still launch a fatal attack, Rex could only destroy this magical ring in exchange for a chance to live.
Felette switched to his left hand and grabbed his hair with his right hand. He twisted it hard, and with a crack, the dislocated cervical vertebra was forcibly closed. Rex didn't even blink when she saw this strange scene. For the first time, she used her unique magic. The flames around her seemed to come alive, and the Fire Crows pounced on Felette.
Fire magic had never been used like this. Rex was now completely surrounded by flames. Even her long black hair was wrapped in orange flames.
Salin had already arrived above Felette. The torrential rain poured down from the sky and passed through the steaming clouds around Salin. Salin opened his demonic magic book, and a huge ice bomb appeared in the air. This ice bomb was already beyond the scope of a level-one spell. It was more than three meters in diameter and completely transparent. Like a polished magic core, it had 24 surfaces and was as smooth as a mirror.
Every Magician had their own unique style. Salin had seen Fayern's Fireball spell, and had been studying what he should develop in. Icicle was only a part of his experiment. This ice bomb was his trump card.
After obtaining Rafael's magic books and notes, Salin further perfected his theory. Using Figaro's magic formula to reverse engineer it, he completed the analysis of the ice bomb. This ice bomb wasn't a simple enlarged version. If Salin were to cast this spell himself, it would take him three minutes to prepare.
This was a level-five spell, but it consumed twice as much magic strings as a normal level-five spell.
Flowing mageweaths appeared on every surface of the perfect ice bomb. In an instant, these mageweaths stimulated dense water vapor. The water vapor was extremely hot, and it was compressed on the surface of every surface.
The water vapor was extremely unstable and could burn or explode at any time. If not for the strange attraction of this ice bomb, the water vapor would have exploded long ago.
In the dull thunder, a huge swirl appeared on the surface of the sea, and the ship, which had already been badly damaged, began to break down from the middle. Freddie twisted his neck and looked at Rex, who was lunging at him, in disdain.
"Magician, do you really think that those flames can hurt me?" As he spoke, he slashed out with his sword. A golden sword light burst out from the longsword, and the flames around Rex disappeared under Felette's attack.
The difference in strength couldn't be made up for by risking one's life. Otherwise, why would Magicians cultivate so hard, and why would Swordsmen train every day?
"Ha!"
Rex roared, and the golden light on the surface of her body expanded intensely. Her long hair danced in the wind, and she looked like a fire elemental spirit in the storm. The flames on the surface of her body were ignited again. The rainwater poured on the flames released by Rex, as if they were splashed with oil. The orange flames burned even more intensely.
The Fire Crows flying in the flames were like magical beasts that had intelligence. They all lunged at Felette. Felette didn't care about the flames that were burning in front of him at all. He stepped forward in the air, and the flames and the Fire Crows disappeared outside his armor. He raised his sword and stabbed it at Rex's heart.
This attack was magnificent. The strong wind caused the waves to rumble loudly, but it didn't affect the stability of the attack at all. It was as if Rex had offered herself and aimed her heart at Felette's longsword.
From the flames behind Rex, two shadows dashed out and attacked Felette from the left and the right. Felette's longsword trembled without changing its direction. Golden sword aura spread out, trying to force the enemy away with the remaining force of the attack.
Felette had rich battle experience, but he made a wrong judgment this time. The two people who lunged at him didn't have sword aura in their bodies, but they were more dangerous than swordsmen.
A whining sound came from Shika's staff. Long dragon horns popped out from the end of the staff, like a cactus in the purgatory desert. The dragon horns on Shika's staff tore open dozens of cracks in the golden sword aura. Shika forced his way in through these cracks, and the leather armor on his body shattered into dozens of pieces.
With a buzz, Shika's staff exploded in the air, and the water vapor evaporated instantly. The whining sound in the staff turned into a shrill roar.
Felette wanted to retract his longsword, but it was too late. He leaped up and dodged Neris, who was attacking him from below, and used his shoulder to take a heavy blow from Shika.
"Roar …" Freddie let out a roar that only an animal could make. This strike caused golden light to burst out from his armor, splashing out from the patterns on the armor. He couldn't feel half of his body. If it wasn't for the protection of the armor, he would have been smashed into a pile of meat paste.
Neris stepped on the fragments of the stern and rushed up. She held the Dragon Tooth Dagger in her hand and aimed at Felette's ankle. She didn't need to attack a fatal spot. As long as she cut through Felette's armor, she could freeze one of his legs.
The three of them worked together and forced Felette into the sky. A bolt of lightning flashed in the sky. Only then did Felette see a huge ice crystal coming down from the dark clouds above his head.
Felette's longsword swung up. Before it could touch the ice crystal that was wrapped in mist, the ice crystal suddenly ignited and exploded violently. The golden light on Felette's armor dissipated in the explosion. He spat out blood, which stained his chest. The armor absorbed the blood and once again erupted with intense golden light.
Whoosh …
The second huge ice crystal came crashing down. Felette didn't dare to touch it with his sword. His body spun strangely in the air and fell down violently. He kicked at Neris, who was pouncing at him.
Neris didn't dodge and allowed Felette's kick to hit her lower abdomen. The Dragon Tooth Dagger in her hand stabbed horizontally and stabbed into the gap of Felette's armor on his thigh.
Hmph …
Nelis let out a muffled groan, and her body violently bent. This kick from the Gold Sword Saint was not easy to bear. If this power really belonged to Freddie, Nelis would not be able to bear it even if she was a Greater Demon.
Felette's thigh was pierced by the Dragon Tooth Dagger, but not a single drop of blood flowed out. The wound froze. He began to feel fear.
The power of a Gold Sword Sage made him go berserk, but when he realized that even a Gold Sword Sage could be injured, Felette had a strong urge to escape. Neris's hand loosened, and her body twisted as she fell into the sea.
Bang!
The second ice crystal smashed heavily on Felette's head. Golden light burst out, and Felette's neck was dislocated again. He lost control and fell into the sea with Neris.
