At first, Angor did not understand what Sunders was trying to do.
But when Sunders began to attack him without holding back, Angor finally realized what Sunders was trying to do. What kind of test was this? Sunders was forcing Angor to fight!
Once he did, it would be difficult for him to create a new spell.
"Damn!" Angor complained in his mind, but he had to respond to Sunders' attack. He thought to himself, I can't fall for Sunders' trick.
That was what he thought, but it was not easy to do it.
Sunders' attack was not done in one move. It was completely tailored to Angor's needs. It went on endlessly and blocked all of Angor's moves.
Sunders did not care about Angor's physical strength either. Angor could not find him at all once he used his illusions.
He could only fight back like a living target.
Sunders did not seem to be holding back. He was still using all kinds of spells at his fingertips. At first, Angor was able to spare some of his mind to control himself because Sunders was testing his moves.
However, when the frequency of his attacks increased, the only thing left in his mind was how to find a way to break through. All other thoughts were thrown to the back of his mind.
Sunders also noticed that Angor's attacks had changed. He was no longer holding back and was now more focused. The more he fought, the more comfortable he became. His eyes sharpened, and he began to think about how to fight back instead of taking the hits.
Sunders grinned and thought to himself, That's more like it.
When Angor's counterattack grew stronger, Sunders also increased his own strength.
Sunders was a little surprised as well. His attacks were almost as powerful as a wizard's.
Also, according to Sunders' estimation, even a relatively powerful wizard would not be able to handle his continuous attacks.
But Angor was able to withstand them.
Of course, Sunders and Angor were also Illusionists, so Angor had some resistance to illusions. Even so, Angor's current strength was not to be underestimated.
Sunders was not only surprised, but also puzzled.
He noticed that Angor had not released his spell slot yet, which made him even more curious. What kind of attack cantrip did Angor have in his spell slot? A defensive one? Or was it more functional?
Normally, cantrips with spell slots could be cast instantly. If it was an offensive cantrip, he would have used it long ago. But he hadn't used it yet, so there was a high probability that it wasn't an attack type.
Was it a defensive type? Sunders increased the intensity of his attacks again. However, Angor still did not use any defensive cantrips in the face of such concentrated attacks.
"Don't tell me Angor's enchantment is a functional cantrip?" Sunders began to doubt.
If it was really functional, then it would be difficult to test.
For example, some alchemy tricks, such as Narda's Eye, alchemy tricks, Mana Circulation, and so on. Of course, functional cantrips were not limited to alchemy. For example, Warlock's Eyes, Dark Detection, Dispelling Fog, Purifying Force Field, and so on were all functional or auxiliary cantrips. It was almost impossible to test them out purely through combat.
As Sunders wondered if he should choose another method, Angor suddenly cleared a path in the storm of attacks.
Angor dodged several illusions while muttering to himself, "This is fake. This is still fake. My real body isn't here."
Finally, before Sunders could react, Angor broke through the mist-like illusions and leaped high into the air.
Against the light, Angor's figure was filled with the beauty of strength.
"Found it!" Angor's eyes lit up as he yelled.
Sunders had more than enough time to add several more layers of illusions to keep Angor trapped. But now, he suddenly stopped. He wanted to see what Angor was going to do to his real self.
If it was an offensive cantrip, it should be time to use it, right?
Angor did not continue to approach Sunders. Instead, under a bright flash of light, three white tentacles emerged from Angor's back and dashed toward Sunders.
These white tentacles were faster than Angor's real body.
Even if Sunders could see where the tentacles were coming from, it would not be easy for him to react.
If Sunders used his truth-finder level power, he could easily turn the situation around. However, he did not do so. Instead, he relied on his rich combat experience to move his feet slightly, and his body immediately responded accordingly. With just a slight movement, he dodged the three white tentacles that were charging at him.
The tentacles brushed past Sunders' skin and stabbed into the cloud on the ground.
After a loud boom, three craters were left on the ground.
The tentacles went straight through the cloud.
Angor was the one who created the cloud above Padt Manor. However, after Demeter's help, Thewis and Eureka strengthened the cloud to prevent it from falling down.
The cloud was buffed by two wizards, but Angor still managed to penetrate it with ease. The tentacles must have reached the level of a "spell".
This was the first time Sunders saw Angor using these white tentacles.
Is this how Angor came up with them?
He couldn't help but pay attention to the white tentacle. The tentacle was just brushing past him, so he could easily sense the energy waves coming from it.
"Strange." That was his first impression of the tentacles.
The tentacles looked like illusions, but they were able to affect the material world and affect reality. This type of illusion was very similar to the Reality Illusion School of Illusion School. However, Sunders was familiar with the Reality School. Sumesh was a Reality School student, and according to Sunders' understanding, the tentacles did not emit any energy waves unique to Reality School students.
Instead, they seemed to be an extension of blood energy.
Was Angor using blood energy as the foundation for his illusion nodes?
The speed of thought was always faster than reality. When Sunders was thinking, only a short amount of time had passed in reality.
According to Sunders' plan, Angor would need to wait for a while before attacking again. But he did not expect the attack to come so quickly!
Angor was still attacking with white tentacles.
A tentacle suddenly grew out from the tentacle stuck in the cloud. Before Sunders could react, the tentacle grew into a brand new tentacle.
It was like a branch of a tree that was divided into a main trunk and a branch. This new tentacle was the branch that was separated from the main trunk!
The new tentacle just happened to be right next to Sunders.
It looked like a sharp blade that was about to stab into Sunders' body.
And there was more than one of them. The three tentacles stuck in the cloud were now splitting into more "branches", each of which was aimed at Sunders.
Sunders raised an eyebrow and looked at Angor from the corner of his eyes.
He had never seen something like this before. Was this really Angor's creation?
It looked like a white prison formed by thorns or a rain of blades. After several loud explosions, the white cloud was blown away and blocked Sunders' sight.
When the dust settled, Sunders was nowhere to be seen.
"Another illusion?" Angor asked in a low voice.
Sunders wasn't hit by the white tentacles, but he already knew how powerful they were. Being hit by something as powerful as a real spell wouldn't end well.
Even if Sunders could survive such an attack, he would still be in trouble. Therefore, he decisively cast another layer of illusion and moved to another location.
While he was regretting that his attack didn't work, he suddenly heard something behind him.
He looked back and saw Sunders' new attack coming at him without him noticing! This time, Sunders didn't use any long-range spells. He was going for a melee attack.
Sunders' right hand transformed into a scythe arm of a phantom mantis. The crescent-shaped scythe shone brightly under the sunlight.
Angor didn't panic. To him, it was still an illusion. Of course, one thing was certain. Even if it was an illusion, the attack was definitely real.
Angor quickly ordered the white tentacles behind him to form a dense net for defense.
When the scythe swung down, only a "dang" sound was heard.
Although the white tentacle managed to block the sickle arm, it was only able to block it for a moment before it was cut off!
The tentacle was as strong as his exoskeleton, and it was as strong as his body. If the tentacle was destroyed, it meant Sunders' attack had already exceeded the limit of his body.
Also, he remembered the clear sound he heard, and the sensation he felt …
It looked like a real scythe arm?!
When he realized what was going on, he quickly turned around.
Sunders, whom Angor thought was just an illusion, narrowed his eyes and showed a cold smile. The scythe arm was once again raised up high and chopped down at his defenseless back!
It was true!
Angor quickly realized what was going on when he saw Sunders' expression.
Without waiting for him to think, the sickle arm's attack was imminent.
Angor even saw Sunders' lips moving slightly as he said, "It's … over …"
At this critical moment, Angor even forgot that he was only being "tested". He thought he was really in the most dangerous situation.
The blades were already coming at him. There was nowhere to run!
Angor's heart raced. A warm current rushed into his brain. Before he could think, he had already begun to save himself.
The spirit model in his mind space suddenly shrank, and the door model in his spell slot immediately shone brightly.
In reality, a door appeared in front of Angor out of nowhere.
It all happened in an instant!
When the door was formed, Angor stepped forward and disappeared into it.
