… … …
Two silver-black missiles drew a beautiful arc as they flew towards the grayish-white Carrion Owl, shattering the glass window.
The grey owl did not move. A thick layer of black gas covered its body, allowing the missiles to hit it.
It seemed that it had just realized that it was not a friend, but an enemy. It opened its sharp beak and screamed silently. Suddenly, countless black tentacles reached out from the carpet in the room.
Some of the tentacles were dark, some were illusory, and some were solid. As soon as they touched Lucien's body, he felt numb, weak, exhausted, and painful.
Lucien had never seen so many elementary spells. Even the second-circle spell, Ghoul Touch, could only numb the tentacles and cause a small amount of damage.
"Is this a unique necromancy spell?"
Lucien calmed himself down and ignited all the tentacles around him, preventing them from binding him.
It was the second-circle spell, Sunfire Protection, which came with the Fire Weaver Bracelet.
Lucien saw that the black tentacles were still coming out, and the closer he got to the door, the more tentacles there would be. Therefore, Lucien turned into a blurred shadow and dashed toward the grey owl.
Relying on his own agility and balance, Lucien managed to dodge the tentacles that appeared out of nowhere. Vigilantly, he slashed at the owl with his sword.
The owl spread its wings and flew away. Lucien knocked down the whole window and landed on the ground of the castle. His body was floating in the air like a feather.
First-circle spell, Feather Fall.
This was the most important spell in case of falling from a great height. That was why Lucien chose to build the spell model in his soul first.
Although the second floor of the castle was like a three-story villa, Lucien would not be hurt at all with Feather Fall.
When Lucien was about to land on the ground, he suddenly heard a crazy laugh coming from the graveyard not far away, "Haha! I'm going to succeed! There's only one step left! Kylene! Kylene! Where are you?! "
The laugh was getting closer and closer. A monster that Lucien could not accurately describe appeared in his sight.
The monster's face was barely recognizable as a human's, but its body was made up of rotten flesh from different parts of its body. There were many horrifying eyeballs, half-closed lips, and pale arms inlaid on the monster's body.
A faint black gas of death was surrounding the monster, and all the grass that came into contact with it quickly withered.
Seeing Lucien, the monster Hunter screamed. Countless black tentacles reached out from the ground again, reaching towards Lucien.
As soon as Lucien saw the monster, he immediately activated the level two divine spell, Undead Resistance, on Sun's Corona. A layer of milky white light covered his body, which could greatly weaken the power of necromancy spells.
As soon as the black tentacles came into contact with the layer of milky white light, they quickly shrank and collapsed as if they had met their natural nemesis. Lucien successfully landed on the ground, turned into a shadow, and slashed at Hunter with his sword.
Hunter pointed at Lucien's sword, and the sword strangely turned around and slashed at Lucien, leaving a deep wound on his shoulder.
The first-circle necromancy spell, Backfire.
Lucien was not affected by the strange change. After he regained control of the sword, he activated the spell model in his soul. Greasy colors appeared on Hunter's body and on the ground around him.
The first-circle spell, Grease.
Hunter took a step forward and almost slipped, so he stopped and started to attack Lucien with long-range spells.
Negative Energy Ray, Withering Skin, Freezing Touch, Weakening Ray, and other spells were all aimed at Lucien. However, Lucien had learned a lot from Alan and Baron Habearo, so he didn't give Hunter any chance to lock onto him. Lucien was able to dodge all the long-range spells. Even if some of the spells brushed past his body, he would be neutralized by the second-level divine spell, Resist.
Although Hunter's eyes were filled with madness, it still realized that something was wrong when Lucien saw that Lucien's flesh, eyeballs, lips, and arms were all falling off from its body.
He let out a loud roar, and countless black illusory waves abruptly erupted in the surrounding dozens of meters, carrying out an indiscriminate large-scale attack.
The third-circle necromancy spell, Negative Energy Burst.
Although this kind of attack was not very powerful, it was a good way to deal with a Knight. Lucien could no longer dodge it, so he had to activate the last spell in his bracelet, Sunfire Protection.
The sun-like fire surrounded Lucien's body, but it was soon devoured by the black negative energy. Fortunately, Lucien also had a divine spell called Resist Undead Creatures in Sun Flame Protection. Therefore, he was able to defend himself from the corrosive negative energy.
After casting the Intermediate Spell, Monster Hunter's body froze, as if it was stuck in a long and scary cooldown period because the spell was beyond its ability.
Lucien, who had been calm and focused, cast Grease again and smeared a thick layer of grease on Hunter's body.
When Lucien was about to cast another spell, three silver-black magic missiles flew towards him from the sky.
The grey owl took over Lucien's task when its master was unable to cast any spells.
Lucien was not very experienced in fighting against a sorcerer, but he knew that he had to be careful of the enemy's pet. Therefore, he kicked the ground and turned into a shadow again, moving between the graveyard and the castle. He did not want to give the grey owl a chance to lock onto him.
"This owl flies high in the sky. It's very troublesome and time-consuming to deal with it. Only long-range attacks like Magic Missile are effective. Hypnosis, Rainbow Spray, and other AOE control spells can't reach the sky at all. No wonder a middle-rank sorcerer's power would be greatly improved after learning how to fly. If I had known this earlier, I would've had a pet that could fly as well … "
"It's covered with Death Armor. It'll take me at least a few hits to break it."
"Although it won't be difficult to kill this magical pet whose intelligence is not very high, when Hunter recovers and launches another large-scale 'negative energy outburst', there will be no way for me to defend or dodge. I can only wait to be killed!"
While moving, Lucien weakened the owl's Death Armor with Magic Missile.
When the Death Armor was weakened to a certain extent, Lucien held Enfeeble tightly in his left hand and was about to throw it at the owl.
However, at this time, pieces of rotten flesh fell off Hunter's body again, and it started to recover from the buffering time. Summoned by the owl, many horrifying corpses crawled out from the black soil in the graveyard. Some of them only had white bones left, some still had pieces of rotten flesh left on the bones, some were highly rotten and disgusting, and some were even transparent ghosts.
They swarmed towards Lucien and surrounded him!
Should he kill the owl first or deal with the army of ghosts first?
Suddenly, a green arrow flew out from the castle. It pierced through the owl's thin Death Armor and pierced into its eyeball.
The owl screamed in pain. Driven by its animal instinct, it turned around and started to attack the enemies in the castle.
Betty, her sister, and her brother-in-law defeated the zombie soldiers and got two precious anti-magic longbows. They came to help Lucien, and they happened to see Lucien surrounded by a large group of ghosts.
So, Betty used her archery skills and took the opportunity to severely injure Hunter's magical pet with one arrow.
The owl screeched, and countless black tentacles appeared in the room. Betty was paralyzed on the spot, and her HP began to drop rapidly. However, another Magic Piercing Arrow suddenly shot out from another room and hit her in the head, making her even crazier. It was Joanna's attack.
Simon, who was hiding in the dark, took the opportunity to save Betty.
Without the owl's interference, Lucien calmly applied Grease on Hunter's body again, and at the same time, activated Sun's Corona, which had the ability to purify the souls of the dead.
With Lucien as the center, white holy light spread out in all directions. White skeletons, rotten corpses, and ferocious ghosts collapsed around Lucien and turned back into senseless bones and rotten flesh. It was a magnificent scene.
Only a few powerful ghosts were still struggling, but they could no longer move and could not threaten Lucien anymore.
Joanna, who was dodging the owl's attack in the castle, was even more convinced that Lucien was a saint Knight who came to deal with the Lord of the Fallen!
At this time, Hunter finally recovered from the long buffering period. He opened his mouth and was about to cast the third circle spell, Negative Energy Explosion, with the help of the corpse of the Necromancer.
At the same time, Lucien calmly activated Fire Weaver Bracelet without any hesitation. His left wrist began to glow.
As long as Lucien could kill Hunter, Lucien would be fine even if he was severely injured or unable to move.
"Ah!" A sharp shriek was heard. The familiar voice made Hunter, who had lost his rationality, look over instinctively.
Holding Kaelyn, who was still weak and exhausted, Simon stood in front of the window of the baron's bedroom, as if he was going to throw her out.
Seizing the opportunity, Lucien threw a big red fireball at Hunter before Hunter could cast the spell.
After a loud explosion, the bright fire burned fiercely. The dark gas around Hunter's body was directly blown away, and the rotten flesh, eyeballs, and pale arms were all blown apart. Hunter's body, which was covered in grease, was instantly turned into a sea of fire. After several layers of Grease, the power of the fire had increased by several times!
Hunter's body was also very afraid of fire. Therefore, he was directly turned into a human torch, writhing in pain. He tried to roll on the ground to put out the fire, but he was surrounded by burning grease.
The corpses and bones around him were also affected by the fire. The whole graveyard was covered in fire.
Simon, Betty, and the other adventurers who had never seen such a scene before were completely shocked. Was the battle between a Knight and a sorcerer really this terrifying?!
Lucien, on the other hand, was not affected at all. While the owl was trying to save its master, he threw the dagger at the owl's head.
Bang! The owl fell to the ground, dead.
"Hunter!" Kaelyn screamed. She jumped out of the castle and fell heavily on the ground. Then she struggled to crawl into the sea of fire. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
