When the dark assassin Petrov was killed by Flame Strike, Ivanovszki and Carleena, who were in the room far away, only sensed the strong waves of divine power. Therefore, although they knew something was wrong, they did not know what exactly happened in Lucien's room.
It was not until the short but thrilling magic battle between Lucien and Matvir that they realized the "truth" of the battle that Lucien and Matvir were fighting.
"He's a middle-rank sorcerer?! Damn liar! " Ivanovszki's eyes were so wide open that they almost broke his gold-rimmed glasses. After the shock, Ivanovszki cursed Lucien furiously.
This unexpected situation made him understand the deep unwillingness of Petrov before his death, and the despair and horror of Matvey at this time.
Carleena's mouth was half open, and her teeth could not be closed. She cursed in her heart, "He's not a Knight? He's a sorcerer?! He's not even Peter Joseph Vladimir! Liar! Liar! Every word he said is a lie! "
However, it was already too late for them to save Matvey. The battle was too fast and too short! Just now, he saw Mattwi's corroded body plummeting to the ground.
Then they all shouted at the same time, "Mr. Nikonov!"
The person they were calling was Steward Semyon, the senior-rank sorcerer who just flew out of Count Viktor's room.
However, in fact, Steward Semyon's surname was not Nikonov!
… …
Steward Semyon, who was called Mr. Nikonov, floated outside of Lucien's room and stared at Lucien through the broken windows and curtains.
His eyes were so cold and gloomy that Lucien felt he was staring at a dead man.
Lucien was shocked when he realized that Steward Semyon was a senior-rank sorcerer. However, since he had the experience of killing a senior-rank sorcerer, he was not as desperate as other sorcerers. Therefore, Lucien, who had been through many life-or-death battles, was able to stay calm and activated the transformation robe without any hesitation.
The castle was deep and wide. There was a slim chance of survival if he turned into a rat and ran through it! Especially when the priests, Knight and Grand Knight of Dry Vine Castle were alerted. As long as they were not all killed in one second, they would be able to send a signal to Cardinal Nevsky in Ural City for help!
If Lucien directly used Elemental Swirl, it would be very difficult to cause any harm to a senior-rank sorcerer when the sorcerer was in perfect condition. Instead, Lucien would be in a desperate situation!
However, just as Lucien was about to activate the transformation robe, he realized that his mind had become abnormally slow, and he could not control his mental strength. Even a simple trigger could not be completed.
"Am I … affected … by … magic?" Lucien's brain was working like a rusty gear, and he was struggling to find the answer.
A fully prepared senior-rank sorcerer who had never experienced a fierce battle was actually so terrifying!
It was not until now that Lucien realized how incredible it was for Felipe to be able to escape from the senior-rank necromancer and use a lot of powerful magic items and spells. No wonder Felipe was one of the most outstanding geniuses of this generation.
However, when Felipe encountered the senior-rank sorcerer, he was already a fifth-circle sorcerer, and Lucien was still two levels lower than him. Also, Felipe did not have any life-saving spells like Life Hiding.
Semenov, who had directly affected Lucien's soul and brain with the sixth-circle spell Daze, was still as calm as a spellcaster. However, there was always a flame of anger rising in his heart. His proudest student, his most loyal subordinate, was killed right in front of him! And because of his carelessness, he could only watch Lucien die.
The great humiliation and anger made Semenov say coldly, "I'm going to turn you into a frog and torture you endlessly. I'm going to make you understand that sometimes death is better than living! "
The words seemed to be coming out from the gaps between his teeth, bringing with them a gust of cold wind.
He did not care whether this bastard was from the Congress of Magic or some powerful ancient sorcerer. Lucien had to pay the price for killing his student, and he also had a powerful organization behind him!
"No … Kill … Then … There's still … a chance …"
In this desperate situation, Lucien still did not give up. He was still trying to get rid of the influence of Daze, and he would not let go of any chance.
It was not fate that made people lose their last glimmer of hope, but their own giving up!
As long as he was still alive, he would never give up!
Lucien's soul was shining brightly, and his mind started to return to normal.
However, it was too late. Lucien was facing a senior-rank sorcerer. Even though he had to wait for a while to cast a spell, his casting speed was much faster than Lucien's recovery speed.
The gap between them was just too big!
Semenov's blue eyes became deep, like the calm and depressing ocean before a storm. Lucien suddenly felt that his body was disintegrating in a strange way and then reassembling in a certain pattern.
Malicious Polymorph!
A cloud of black mist appeared beside Lucien. Leo wanted to run out from the cubicle and push Lucien away, but he was too slow.
Suddenly, the dark sky that was shining with the cold light of the Silver Moon turned yellow and withered. Withered tree roots that looked like tentacles appeared from all directions.
These monstrous figures that covered the sky and earth suddenly gathered together, wrapping around Semyon like a ball!
Inside the castle, the fragrant soil quickly became barren. The flowers that were still blooming quickly withered, and the dark green needles withered in a weird way …
The power was as strong as that of a senior-rank sorcerer!
"Withered Shadow!"
"Uncle Viktor!"
It was Ivanovszki and Carleena who cried out in horror. This was the biggest worry that they thought they could forget about, but which still haunted them in their dreams at night.
"A LV 7 radiant knight, an expert who walked out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, a knight with his own unique honorary title, was controlled by us just like that?!"
"Even though he's really old, and his serious illness has caused his body to deteriorate rapidly, and even though we have Nikonov, a sixth-circle senior-rank sorcerer, who has cast a curse on him that will weaken him slowly, his reputation is still terrifying."
Today, when everything was about to come to an end, Ivanovszki's and Carleena's worries came true in a nightmarish way.
Inside the withered ball, a strange light flashed on Semenov's body. He suddenly disappeared and reappeared in the shadow far away. At the same time, a layer of energy armor appeared on his body.
It was the sixth-circle spell, Spell Trigger!
This was the signature spell that divided middle-rank and senior-rank, because building it in one's soul meant one more life and one more chance!
The spell would be triggered according to different situations, such as when one was about to die, or when one was attacked suddenly and could not react in time. When the situation was right, Spell Trigger would cast the two spells stored in its model, which were no higher than half of the user's level. Therefore, it was the best spell to protect one's life and defend in an emergency.
After using the two third-circle spells, Shadow Jump and Advanced Mage Armor, to get rid of the withered shadow, Semenov managed to stabilize the situation.
The withered ball then transformed into a human figure. Count Witte, who was about to die, stood proudly in front of the ball.
He was holding a huge black sword with both of his hands. His face was still wrinkled and gray, but he looked more aggressive now. However, because of this feeling, Viktor Count immediately became more energetic. He was totally different from the ordinary old man.
"Even though I'm about to die, I can still kill people." Count Witte raised his eyes and said coldly. He swung his greatsword, and it turned into countless afterimages as he attacked "Semyon".
His patience had finally given him this opportunity!
Since Malice Polymorph was interrupted by Viktor Count at the critical moment, the black fog dissipated before it could completely cover Lucien. Lucien immediately felt that his body was back to normal, and the influence of Dullness was completely gone.
"Let's go!" Glancing at Leo, Lucien jumped down to the yard of the castle first. If he did not take advantage of the fierce battle between the Knight and the senior-rank sorcerer, when would he be able to escape?
No matter if the senior-rank sorcerer disguised as Semenov or the "withered shadow" Viktor Count won, Lucien believed that they would not mind killing him. After all, the former's student was killed by him, and the latter was a Knight who had hunted many sorcerers. Besides, this was the Schachran Empire, a country that was always ready to burn sorcerers to death.
As for why Lucien chose to jump into the yard with the speed of a Knight, it was because the sky was full of withered shadows, and if he did not fly fast enough, he would be easily affected by the withered shadows.
When Leo was about to jump, he suddenly sensed that Ivanovszki was in another window. Therefore, Leo's body suddenly became bigger, and with his muscles bulging, he jumped towards the window where Ivanovszki was.
"The two middle-rank guards of Ivanovszki were killed by my master. This is the best chance to kill him! And if I kill him, I can cut off the intelligence of the smuggling organization, which will make it easier for my master to escape. I can't give up this chance to repay him for saving my life, or to avenge my family. I can't be stingy with my life! "
It seemed that Ivanovszki was worried that he would be affected by the battle between the two senior-rank sorcerers, so he wanted to jump into the yard like Lucien. However, at this time, Leo attacked him unexpectedly.
Facing Leo, Ivanovszki, who was at a disadvantage, sneered, "It's you."
"Go to hell!" Leo felt that his blood was boiling, and his sword was about to hit Ivanovszki.
But soon, he was shocked to see that Ivanovszki punched at him with his right fist, and then he was blacked out like a kite with a broken string.
"Grand Knight?! He's a Grand Knight! "
Ivanovszki's tight suit changed into a silver full-body armor. With a cold look on his face, Ivanovszki jumped down from the sky with a huge sword in his hands and chased after Lucien.
This smuggler did not use the Blessing power to activate his Blessing, but was a real Grand Knight!
No wonder so many assassins could not hurt him!
Carleena murmured to herself, "Grand Knight? He is also a liar! "
"The Grand Knight, Ivanovszki, who pretended to be a Knight; Mr. Nikonov, who pretended to be the butler; Mr. Viktor, who pretended to be an old man waiting for his death; Mr. Vladimir, who pretended to be a member of the Vladimir family, a middle-rank sorcerer; Ivanovszki's enemy, who pretended to be the butler; and me, who pretended to be a weak girl who did not activate her Blessing power … This is a wonderful stage play, and we are all great actors …" If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
