The enraged Xiuban was the first to rush over. That sneak attack had made Lord Xiuban lose his first chance to kill a level 39 magic beast. This was simply unforgivable.
Xiuban swung Carnage and swept at the Gaugass Battlemage at the forefront. Sparks scattered as the spear and Carnage collided. That Gaugass Battlemage didn't even have the chance to display his skills before he felt a Dragon surging towards him.
The huge impact hit the Gaugass Battlemage's body and sent him flying a few dozen meters away. If it hadn't been for that Gaugass Battlemage's fighting skills being pretty good and mitigating most of the power, he might have already been smashed to pieces.
Following Xiuban's attack, Reina, Anderfa, and the puppet also made a move.
Ice spells, spells of the four elements, and spellwaves … The three converged together and transformed into a chaotic wave of spells that crushed these Gaugass Battlemages in one move.
These Gaugass Battlemages were more powerful than mages of the same rank, and in a one-on-one fight, the mages would be killed. But the strongest of this group of Gaugass Battlemages was only a 4th Rank Archmage, while the weakest was only a 1st Rank Archmage.
As for Xiuban, he was already a 5th Rank Sword Saint, but he was an innately ferocious Draconic Beastman. After fusing with a drop of Three-Headed Golden Dragon's blood and bathing in God Blood, his body had long since surpassed the limits of his rank and race. His power was so great that even a few thousand kilograms of weapons felt too light.
With pure power, he could crush anyone of a lower rank than him. That kind of power couldn't be made up for with skills. No matter how powerful a skill was, it couldn't shake a power that was a hundred times stronger.
As for Reina, she was a Frost Dragon, and her father was a Heaven Rank Frost Dragon. As a level 39 Frost Dragon, she didn't need to transform to become an 8th Rank Archmage, just her Frost Dragon form wasn't something an 8th Rank Archmage could compare to.
After Lin Yun replaced the puppet's components with precious materials, the puppet's power had once again increased. It could now compare to a level 39 magic beast, or even stronger. It could even be called a mobile mana crystal cannon. After all, this puppet was at the Heaven Rank!
After Lin Yun changed the mana source, the mechanical system had become even more powerful. It was just that the components on its body were restricting its display.
As for Anderfa, the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel could already be considered a High Rank True Spirit Magic Tool, and with Lin Yun advancing to the Archmage realm, its casting ability was even stronger than the puppet's!
Under such circumstances, a few people dealing with over twenty Gaugass Battlemages didn't require any skill.
The pure pressure of spells sent over twenty heavily armored Gaugass Battlemages flying in an instant.
If it weren't for the fact that this group of Gaugass Battlemages had terrifying magic resistance, that their bodies had magic resistant magic patterns, that their bodies were as tough as Beastmen's, and that their heavy armor weighed at least a hundred kilograms, making their magic resistance unimaginable, they would have already turned into a pile of corpses.
In less than ten seconds, the last Gaugass Battlemage who still wanted to stand up was knocked into the ground by Xiuban's hammer, and the battle was over.
Shock could be seen in Kempes' eyes. He hadn't expected Mafa Merlin's subordinates to be so powerful. Over twenty Gaugass Battlemages!
They didn't even put up a token resistance before completely losing their fighting strength.
'Damn, how could this be!'
These twenty Gaugass Battlemages were the elites of the Gaugass Elites! They were all Archmages!
After all, these twenty Gaugass Battlemages were like sharp swords when facing an army of five hundred mages. They could even guarantee that they would be able to get rid of half of the mage army without losing a single person!
After all, in the Raging Flame Plane, five 5th Rank Archmages and fifty High Mages would be part of a mage army, and the rest would be Great Mages.
The fighting power displayed by this kind of arrangement was definitely stronger than that of a 6th or 7th Rank Archmage. When the number of mages reached a certain level, even Low Rank Mages would be able to display frightening power.
But the Raging Flame Plane's war equipment was only about the same as a squad of twenty Gaugass Battlemages.
The ones in front of them were the elites of the Gaugass Battlemages. A month ago, this small team had collided with a force of over seven hundred mages in the south.
In the end, this small team of over twenty Archmages didn't fall, and they only suffered varying degrees of injuries. As for that army of over seven hundred mages, over three hundred of them were killed, and the rest fled before the battle was over.
This was also the reason why he brought these people this time. Although Kempes was arrogant, he wasn't stupid. As the most talented Gaugass Battlemage, if nothing unexpected happened, he would become the next Gaugass King. This was naturally the capital to be arrogant. Ordinary 8th Rank Archmages were no different from chickens in his hands. He could settle the battle in three minutes at most.
This time, it involved a huge transaction, so he conveniently brought this team of elites, but he hadn't expected things to develop to this point.
'Damnit, so what if they are powerful? The real battle hasn't started yet. I originally wanted to save some energy, but I have no choice but to make a move now. I'll first kill that Mafa Merlin, and then kill the rest.
'As long as they aren't at the Heaven Rank, this group of chickens won't be my opponent …'
As he thought of this, Kempes let out an angry shout. His muscles started bulging, and mana started circulating on the surface of his body. Faint traces of lightning could be seen flickering on the Lightning Spear.
Kempes slightly arched his body and assumed a charging posture. A muffled sound echoed under his feet, and the earth within several meters was instantly covered in cracks. The ground caved in by half a meter, and a terrifying pressure revolved around Kempes' body.
Suddenly, the ground within ten meters loudly exploded, and Kempes' body instantly disappeared.
Then, Kempes appeared in front of Lin Yun, the Lightning Spear in his hand ruthlessly stabbing towards Lin Yun.
Lin Yun slightly frowned and controlled his flames to form a fire elemental phantom. His body turned into a ball of flames and disappeared the moment Kempes appeared.
The instant Lin Yun secretly used Flame Flash to disappear, glaring lightning condensed at the tip of Kempes' Lightning Spear. A dozen Lightning Spear afterimages suddenly appeared in the air, and in an instant, that Lightning Spear stabbed that phantom a dozen times.
A loud explosion echoed.
The remnant Flame Phantom loudly exploded, and a large amount of flames fluttered in the air. Kempes' body once again turned into an afterimage as he chased after Lin Yun.
Lin Yun swung his Draconic Staff and instantly cast several dozen Low Tier Spells. A large amount of fire and ice fell towards Kempes like a storm.
But Kempes acted as if he didn't see it. He held the Lightning Spear, and the tip of the spear flickered with lightning as he charged over while enduring the several dozen Low Tier Spells.
The spells exploded on the surface of Kempes' body, and veined patterns suddenly appeared on the surface of his jet-black heavy armor, faintly emitting light. At the same time, magic patterns also shone on the surface of Kempes' body. Kempes didn't seem to be affected in the slightest, and only some burnt marks could be seen on his heavy armor.
That flickering lightning spear tore through a large amount of flames and ice, and like a bolt of lightning, it continued charging towards Lin Yun.
Lin Yun released a Lava Shield with a wave of his hand, and his body once again transformed into flames as he flashed over twenty meters away.
Seeing Kempes' spear easily tearing through the Lava Shield, a trace of understanding flashed in Lin Yun 'eyes.
Gaugass Battlemages mainly fought with their bodies, with magic as a supplement. The lightning flickering at the tip of that spear was condensed to the pinnacle of mana, and the spells buffed on the spear were all Sharpness and Magic Penetration spells.
When combined with spells, it was very easy for a Gaugass Battlemage to tear through an opponent's Mana Shield. Coupled with their powerful magic resistance, this was the reason why the Gaugass Battlemage was the bane of mages.
And this Kempes was truly talented. He was wearing heavy armor that weighed at least a hundred kilograms and holding a lightning spear that weighed at least twenty-five kilograms, yet his speed was still so fast. He was indeed a rare genius among Gaugass Battlemages.
When combined with the fighting style of the Gaugass Battlemages, this kind of speed would display terrifying destructive power. Mages of the same rank would be nothing more than chickens in his hands.
This kind of speed already surpassed the speed at which most mages could dodge. If they couldn't dodge, it would be very difficult for defensive spells to resist his Lightning Spear.
That spear was also unique to the Gaugass Battlemages. That kind of material was very rare, and it was produced in the Gaugass Highland. That kind of special Lightning Ore would appear at the peak of a mountain that was often struck by lightning. It innately carried the power of lightning, and after being stimulated by mana, it would have a powerful tearing effect. It was most proficient at tearing through a mage's shield.
But that kind of material wasn't easy to mine. The best quality ore could only be found at the peak of a mountain, but there was a risk of being struck by lightning there. Every year, the Gaugass Battlemages would pay a great price for that.
After experimenting just now, Lin Yun knew that Kempes' Lightning Spear had definitely added a lot of Lightning Ore to it. Tearing through an Ice Shield was so easy, and ordinary defenses simply wouldn't have any effect.
To an orthodox mage, losing their shield was no different from dying.
Kempes seemed a bit irritated after failing to hit Lin Yun twice in a row. He rapidly chanted an incantation, and light appeared on his body.
