Lucien's broken left arm sent waves of intense pain to his head, making his nerves twitch and his head swell. However, Lucien was not affected at all. Gritting his teeth, Lucien instantly moved to the front of the Flesh Puppet Knight, dodging its huge axe, and dashing towards the front of the Flesh Puppet Knight.
Lucien's right hand punched the knight's mask. The black metal mask was slightly dented, and the skin on Lucien's right hand was broken. Blood flowed out of the wound on Lucien's right hand.
Lucien quickly lowered his body and dodged the attack with the huge axe. Then he turned into a shadow and moved around the Flesh Puppet Knight again. Taking advantage of his great speed, Lucien repeated the previous scene: dodging the huge axe, dashing forward, and hitting the Flesh Puppet Knight's face with his right hand …
One punch, two punches, three punches … The dent on the black metal mask became more and more obvious, but Lucien's right hand was badly mutilated. Every time he punched the Flesh Puppet, he felt like thousands of steel needles were piercing his bone marrow.
Four punches, five punches, six punches … Lucien seized the opportunity and dashed towards the Flesh Puppet Knight again. Using the Flesh Puppet's tall and heavy body and the cold and thick armor as his leverage, Lucien twisted his waist, twisted his hip, and raised his shoulder. Concentrating all his strength, Lucien punched the Flesh Puppet Knight heavily.
Bang! Lucien's right hand was splashed with blood and flesh, revealing his white bones. The black mask fell apart and turned into pieces of metal pieces flying in all directions!
Under the helmet, there was a pale and creepy face engraved with black patterns, as if it was made up of many different faces.
Lucien's fist was not finished yet. With the ferocity of breaking the Flesh Puppet's metal mask, Lucien's fist smashed the disgusting face into pieces.
Without the protection of the metal armor, the Flesh Puppet was only an official Knight and had no intelligence. How could it withstand the full attack of Lucien, who was almost as powerful as an Advanced Knight? Especially its head, which was the weakest part of its body!
In order to end the battle as quickly as possible, Lucien was prepared to smash its head in a head-on clash based on his understanding of flesh and blood puppets!
Amidst the splashing of flesh and blood, metal fragments fell to the ground with tinkling sounds. The giant axe fell out of his hand and was embedded into the stone bricks on the ground. The flesh puppet Knight in heavy black armor bent its legs and knelt heavily on the ground. Its broken head was deeply lowered, and there was no more movement.
Lucien's figure was reflected in Carina's green eyes. His clothes were covered with blood, and half of his left arm was missing. Blood was still gushing out from his broken arm, and the bones of his right fist were exposed. Blood was dripping to the ground, but Lucien turned around and walked back casually, as if he was a Knight who had just fought a bloody battle.
"Is he really a sorcerer?" Carina was shocked by Lucien's appearance. The contrast between the two was too big.
Then, she saw Lucien take a few steps, bend down slightly, and use his right hand that was beginning to heal to pick up the extraordinary greataxe. Then, he walked towards her at an extremely fast pace.
"He's coming to me?"
A strong smell of blood came into Carina's nose, and she felt a bit dizzy. Then, she saw Lucien holding the greataxe with his left hand and pressing the collar on her neck with his right hand.
Lucien's voice sounded in Carina's ears. Together with Lucien's current appearance, he was like a demon summoned from the abyss.
Just like how a Knight used a magic item, Lucien used his will instead of his spiritual power to read the spell that he simulated after analyzing the structure of the collar. At the same time, the Blessing power in his right hand pierced into the collar's key part.
A silver lightning bolt came out of the collar, and Carina's body twitched slightly. Soon, the collar made a clicking sound, and all the pain disappeared.
Seizing the opportunity, Lucien grabbed the collar and threw it far away.
In the air, the collar closed by itself.
Lucien could only open the collar for a short time, but he didn't dare to touch the collar to erase the old witch's spiritual imprint. If he did that, the old witch would be alerted.
Carina's blood froze, and she immediately felt that her spiritual power was recovering rapidly. Soon, the dried river bed was filled up.
Carina was so happy that her most important thing was back. She kept thanking Lucien, "Thank you, thank you …"
"Stop!" Lucien interrupted Carina mercilessly. His voice was a bit hoarse because of the excessive blood loss. "Remember the spell that I'm going to read, and then use your spiritual power to stimulate the part of the collar that is surrounded by the sunflower, the thorn tree, and the twelve signs of the zodiac …"
Although he could sense the pattern of the collar with his intuition, after his left hand was broken, the intense pain and dizziness caused by excessive blood loss were hitting his head. It was very easy for him to press the wrong button and faint due to the electric shock. Therefore, since there was a sorcerer around, he did not need to take such a risk.
As a sorcerer, memorizing spells was the most basic ability. After Lucien taught her three times, Carina could repeat the spell without making any mistakes. Adam, Alva, and Bullard knew that they had to rely on Lucien to unlock the bracelet, so they didn't urge Carina.
Carina entered the spellcasting state and calmly read the spell. Her spiritual power spread out and pierced toward the specific part of the collar on Lucien's neck.
Streaks of lightning surrounded Lucien's body. He was used to the electric shock, but he didn't feel numb. After hearing the crack, he quickly grabbed the collar with his right hand and threw it out. He was one second faster than Carina's left hand.
Lucien's spiritual power surged out like a tide. He found that both his soul and spiritual power had reached level five. It seemed that it was not only because of the electric shock, but also because of many other factors.
Lucien didn't have time to think about it, so he activated a third-circle necromancy spell in his soul, Healing.
Ever since Felipe figured out the relationship between the memory of cells and the recovery ability of grand knights with the help of Lord of the Undead's experiment, direct healing spells were no longer exclusive to the Church. Every level of necromancy had a corresponding healing spell. However, compared to the divine spells of the same level, the healing spells were not as effective as the divine spells of the same level. Therefore, most of the time, they had to be used together with healing potions.
Milky white light flashed on Lucien's broken left arm. The bone started to heal, and the flesh started to wriggle. Soon, the bleeding stopped, and the wound was covered with a layer of flesh.
After that, Lucien started to lift the restraining bracelet for Adam. At the same time, he asked Carina to learn from Adam. This way, they could save a lot of time to help Alva and Bullard later.
In Lucien's plan, it was best to have two assistants, and the more, the better.
After the restraining bracelet was removed, Adam's body suddenly became dim, and there was an obvious sign of darkness.
"Hahaha, thank you so much, buddy! I don't know how many years it's been since I last felt my power! "Adam couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Lucien didn't say anything. He hurriedly walked to Alva and lifted the restraining bracelet for him, while Carina took care of Bullard.
While staying alert, Adam looked at the broken arm on the ground and sighed, "Buddy, you're so cruel. You let the Flesh Puppet Knight cut off your arm to free yourself from the restraining bracelet. If it were me, even if I could make up my mind, I wouldn't be able to do it so coldly, as if it was not your arm. "
Lucien smiled but didn't answer. If it were Adam, even if his left arm was cut off, he still wouldn't be able to lift the restraining bracelet.
Without a complete understanding of the alchemy and magic structure of the restraining bracelet, Adam wouldn't be able to seize the opportunity to break the restraining bracelet. Even if he lost his left arm, the restraining bracelet on his right hand would still work, unless he was willing to lose both his arms.
But this way, Adam, who was unable to become a high-ranked knight and had completely turned into darkness, would lose most of his strength. His hands not only represented strength and the ability to wield weapons, they were also important organs for maintaining balance and maintaining high speed and agility. In a situation where he didn't have a long period of time to adapt to his new body, coupled with the massive loss of blood in a short period of time, the level 5 Grand Knight Adam might not be able to defeat the flesh puppet knight.
Lucien, on the other hand, didn't care. After all, his main strength was in magic. Losing one arm only meant that he couldn't cast the spells that required hand gestures.
After the bracelets were broken, Carina turned around and thanked Lucien sincerely, "Thank you so much, Mr. Lucien. You've lost an arm to help us out, but I'm still very grateful to you. We'll try our best to find a way to restore your arm in the future … "
"Now is not the time to talk about this. Let's go to the energy room!" Lucien's head was still aching, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he turned around and ran towards the old witch's magic lab. According to his observation, the energy room was near the lab, but the core of the magic tower was not on this route. Lucien and Adam didn't know where it was, but they could tell from the flow of energy in the energy room.
As for Carina's concern, Lucien didn't care at all. After all, the Congress of Magic had the spells and rituals to regenerate broken limbs. As long as he could make it back alive, he would definitely receive treatment.
Also, even if he couldn't regenerate his broken limb, losing an arm was not a big deal.
At the same time, what confused Lucien was that he still could not open his spirit library or contact Rhine. It seemed that this place of confinement had blocked all the connections to the outside world, and there was an uncanny suppressive force.
After running for a few steps, Lucien suddenly stopped. He squatted down and picked up his broken left arm. Then he held the greataxe in his right hand and turned into a blur.
Carina and the rest of the team were a bit scared. However, they didn't have much time. They didn't know when the old witch would find out and come back, so they suppressed their doubts and followed Lucien to the energy room. Adam was the fastest among them. He quickly rushed to Lucien, who was casting spells on himself while running.
…
A Flesh Puppet Knight raised a greatsword in both hands and hacked down fiercely. Adam turned into a cloud of darkness and directly rushed towards the greatsword.
The greatsword seemed to have hit nothing. The darkness completely covered it.
A second later, the darkness faded away. The flesh golem knight's armor and every part of its body showed traces of black corrosion. Only the greatsword was not damaged by Adam.
Alva hurriedly stepped forward and picked up the greatsword. Adam didn't need the weapon, but he couldn't.
On the way, with Adam, a level five Knight, and Lucien's help, several Flesh Puppet Knight and their leader, who was a level two Flesh Puppet, were easily taken care of. However, since there was no treasure room on this route, Lucien and the rest of the team did not have time to find their lost magic items or the old witch's collection. They rushed to the energy room as fast as they could.
"The energy room is one of the forbidden areas in the magic tower. It's protected by a powerful magic circle. Now it's up to you." Adam looked at the energy room cautiously and said, "Don't disturb the old witch, or we won't be able to resist one of her spells even if we work together."
Lucien nodded slightly. Although every senior-rank sorcerer's magic tower had its own unique magic circle, the foundation of the magic tower was still in the category of Guide to Building Magic Towers and 107 Types of Magic Towers. Lucien was confident that he could decipher and crack the defense magic circle of the magic tower. The only problem was that he did not know how long it would take.
It was not a matter of pure strength. If he made a slight mistake in his analysis, he would either disturb the old witch or be killed by the power of the magic circle.
There was only one chance!
When Lucien was about to take action, a strong wind came from the side, and a great pressure was generated.
A cloud of darkness rushed forward. Along with the sound of leather being hit, Adam showed up and took a few steps back. The redness on his face faded away, and he became very pale.
At the corner on the right, a golem as tall as two people stepped back with a huge hammer in its hand.
Its eyes were red, and its body seemed to be made of iron.
