The female mage did not sit still. Seeing that George was beyond saving, Isabelle decisively chose to give up. She used the remaining precious time to turn around and return to the house. She removed the powerful Sleeping Potion from Peter and Russel. These two were also experienced experts. When they woke up, they immediately realized what had happened. Without saying a word, they rushed back to the room, picked up their weapons, and jumped down from the building.
At this time, Rob had already killed George and broken Isabelle's Death Shackles. He raised his head and saw Peter and Russel descending from the sky. One of them was a Thief, and the other was a Warrior. They were both tier-5 professions. Together with the female mage, the three of them still had a fighting chance.
However, this time, Isabelle did not even have half a chance of winning. George was the leader of this team and the strongest among the four, but even he could not last five minutes. The remaining three were probably doomed. What was worse was that the other party had mastered Phase Shift. As long as they left this small courtyard and lost the interference of Barbaric Growth, the three of them would not be able to escape even if they wanted to. Therefore, they could only bite the bullet and continue fighting.
Peter and Russel also saw George, who was badly mutilated on the ground. The two of them looked at each other, and their expressions were filled with horror. They had just woken up, and time was limited. Isabelle only told them that there was a strong enemy outside, and that the leader was holding the other party back while she came in to wake the two of them. In the end, when Peter and Russel came out, the female mage's so-called holding back was simply a one-sided slaughter of George.
The two of them knew the strength of a Punishment Paladin very well. Although that guy was a lunatic, he was an expert. If even he was defeated so miserably, the three of them together might not be a match for the other party.
However, Peter and Russel also knew that they had no way out at this time. Since the other party had already killed George, there was no reason for him to let the others go. The two of them only paused for a moment before rushing towards Rob from the left and right. At the same time, Isabelle also began to chant, and all kinds of buffs were quickly cast on the two of them. Because of the previous experience, the female mage did not forget to cast a Trap Detection, carefully checking for other hidden magic traps in the surroundings.
After that, Isabelle continued to chant the next tier-5 spell, Hell's Gate. Like Death Shackles, Hell's Gate was also the female mage's best dark magic. The caster used their own magic to create a gate that could connect to the abyss, and through this gate, they summoned dark creatures. Under normal circumstances, the creatures that could be summoned were related to the mage's own magic.
However, this magic had a very fatal flaw. Once Hell's Gate was opened, it was very difficult to close again. This gate would also automatically devour the surrounding magical elements. Once it absorbed enough magic, it was very likely that it would go out of control and summon even more terrifying things.
Because of the danger of this magic, it was listed as a forbidden magic by the Magic Association not long after it appeared. Unfortunately, the curse of Hell's Gate was very similar to another magic often used by mages — Dark Summoning. Therefore, there were still some careless unlucky people who accidentally opened Hell's Gate (in fact, the guy who first created this magic did it because of an accident), so the Magic Association had dealt with many similar cases before.
Luo Bu noticed that the black door above his head was slowly opening. He could even hear the blood-curdling screeches of the demon-hunting spiders and ghouls behind the door. He took the time to cast an Azure Protection spell on the girl in his arms. However, the future supreme magus didn't think that he would need to use this spell in battle. The Azure Protection's main purpose was to prevent the blood of the demon-hunting spiders and ghouls from splattering on Luo's body.
Peter and Russell were defeated faster than Isabelle expected. Unlike the Punishment Paladins, the two did not have magic immunity. They were already at a disadvantage against mages, not to mention that their opponents were absolute monsters. The combat experience that they had accumulated when facing mages in the past was completely useless on this night.
Peter and Russell had died one after another before the Hell's Gate was fully opened, but their deaths were not as miserable as George's. Their figures were swallowed by the magic that filled the sky, and they soon fell.
Rob looked at the female mage not far away. Now, she was the only one left from the four-member team of the Heresy Court. Before meeting Lolo, Archmage did not have a good impression of this dark organization under the Temple. Although she was a woman, her hands must be stained with the blood of innocent people. However, Rob did not want to kill her so quickly. He still had some questions that he needed her to answer.
Archmage wanted to find out if the Temple had already found traces of Lolo, if this group of people was here for the girl, what was their relationship with the guy behind the Holy Roland Brotherhood Academy of Magic, and why that guy helped them to trick Lolo here. In addition, Isabelle looked at him with fear in her eyes and called him a demon. Obviously, she had mistaken him for someone else. Rob wanted to know who the demon she was referring to was.
But before that, Archmage needed to solve the problem in front of him first. Now that the dark gate above his head had opened halfway, demon-hunting spiders and ghouls had already squeezed out of it, scrambling to jump to the ground. The scene was like dumplings. It looked very lively, but in fact, they were only some of the lowest level of abyssal creatures.
In the past, when he encountered such a situation, Archmage directly used area of effect magic to clear the screen. But considering the characteristic of Hell's Gate that could absorb the surrounding magical elements, Rob decided to change the solution tonight.
In the short span of a minute, the Great Magician cast no less than 20 buff spells on himself. In exchange for the next three minutes, he would temporarily possess the physique of a Grade 4 Warrior. Then, the Great Magician picked up the Elven sword from the ground.
As soon as a demon-hunting spider landed on the ground, it rushed over anxiously. Its strong desire for blood and food drove it to the nearest living creature, but in the next moment, its body was split in half from the middle.
Rob swung the sword in his hand twice, inwardly praising the top-notch smelting craftsmanship of the elves. He didn't use much strength just now, and when the sword cut into the spider's body, it didn't meet any resistance. It felt as simple as cutting through tofu, and not a single drop of blood was left on the blade.
At that moment, the second demon-hunting spider pounced. Archmage used a simple downward chop to easily behead it. He had to admit that the swordsman training during this period of time was quite useful. At least his tuition fees in Siamese weren't in vain. In the past, even if he had the strength of a Grade 4 warrior, he wouldn't be able to control his small body. Now, with the Bretton Family's heirloom sword, he could kill his way in and out of the group of spiders and ghouls.
In fact, it only took Rob two and a half minutes to clean up the first wave of abyssal creatures summoned by Isabelle. The process was a completely one-sided massacre. This made the future supreme magus Your Honor a little puzzled. Isabelle sacrificed two companions in exchange for precious time, yet she only cast such a weak spell. Was this her final choice? Hoping that the battle between them would cause the Hell's Gate to go out of control and summon even more powerful abyssal creatures?
However, Archmage didn't intend to give her the chance. After killing the last ghoul, Rob stabbed the sword into the ground beside his feet and raised his staff again, sealing the Hell's Gate before the next wave of abyssal creatures appeared.
After doing all this, Luo Bu felt an inexplicable sense of alarm in his heart.
