"It's him, Lucien? Evans! "
Although he was only level seven now, Ramiro still recognized Lucien from his unreserved magic waves and scent. Therefore, he was even more aware of the danger he was in.
He had lost the upper hand, his strength was reduced, and in twelve seconds, he might lose another level. How could he face Lucien, who had countless magic items? There was almost no chance of victory in front of Evans. Furthermore, Evans had yet to use his magic staff that was embedded with the Sun Gem and could cast Confinement Spells. If he delayed any longer, his soul would be invaded by Soul Curses, Fate Interference Spells, and other spells, and his fate would be affected. He would really die!
Relatively speaking, Ramiro preferred to run into a ninth-circle archmage. When the archmage did not know anything about him, there was a high chance that he could escape with his strange ability. As for Lucien, who had fought against him and witnessed his self-detonation, Ramiro knew that Ramiro was a ninth-circle archmage. Evans, on the other hand, must have guessed Ramiro's trump card and would take corresponding precautions.
"He has cast two spells in a row. Even if one is a fourth-circle spell and the other is a magic item, he should be stunned for a short period of time."
"I can't seize the opportunity to turn the tables. He hasn't even used his Trigger Spell. The longer I delay, the more dangerous it will be for me!"
"I have to make a decision. Hesitation will only get me killed!"
Many thoughts came to Ramiro's mind uncontrollably. However, in a short time, Ramiro, who had experienced a lot of dangers, suppressed his despair and depression and judged the current situation. The puddles of flesh that were coming from all directions suddenly expanded and exploded without any warning.
Even if he had to blow himself up in a couple of months, even if he hadn't fully recovered from the wounds from last time, even if he would be in a weakened state for a long time, even if it might affect his chances of becoming a legendary knight in the future, Ramiro couldn't care less. At this moment, if he wasn't cruel to himself and didn't make a quick decision, he would be indulging his enemy. A dead man would always be in a weakened state and could never become a legendary knight!
Boom! The earth-shattering explosion turned all the gold, silver, and gems around Ramiro into powder. The horrible blast wave brought countless pieces of debris and rushed towards Lucien at an astonishing speed.
"I don't believe you can't dodge it!"
"I don't believe I can't beat your next spell!"
Ramiro's ferocious will seemed to be contained in the explosion.
Because Lucien's cognitive world had been transformed into Wave-Particle Duality Meditation, which was closer to reality, his meditation speed was two to three times faster than his peers, and the buffering time after casting spells was shorter than that of regular sixth-circle sorcerers. More importantly, one of the first two spells was a fourth-circle spell, and the other was a spell that came with the Immortal Throne robe. The buffering time was very short for a senior-rank sorcerer, and it could be recovered in about one second.
Therefore, Ramiro's plan was to force Lucien to cast a defensive spell or directly leave when Lucien had just passed the buffering period. In this way, Ramiro would be able to avoid the short but very dangerous time of Soul Transfer.
Terrifying waves of air surged from all directions, carrying with them the power to destroy everything. Under such circumstances, there was no mage who would not consider themselves first.
Lucien recovered earlier than Ramiro expected. He got rid of the dizziness almost as soon as the explosion happened. Faced with such a powerful explosion, he subconsciously wanted to cast Energy Absorption Field.
But at this time, the words that Lucien had repeatedly warned himself before he made the move flashed through his mind.
"If I fail to kill and imprison Ramiro, he will definitely spread the word about my identity. By then, I will be in big trouble if I can't observe and record the process of a god's cultivation from a close distance!" Lucien murmured.
I can't let him get out of my control. Death or imprisonment!
The consequences of letting Ramiro go came one after another. Lucien stood firmly where he was and did not cast Energy Absorption Field. Instead, he seized the opportunity to activate his magic items. In order to make sure that he hit the target, he deliberately held back the activation of the spell.
A ray of ice and snow shot out from Lucien's left chest into the expanding airwaves, carrying the absolute silence in the world of ice and snow.
At the same time, the horrifying power of the explosion hit Lucien's body.
Lucien suddenly disappeared from where he was and reappeared at the entrance of the secret passage. There was an extra layer of light shield on his body to protect him from the energy damage.
Since the activation of the spell was a bit late, Lucien's face was pale and there was blood on the corner of his mouth. If it were not for the Immortal Throne robe's defensive power, he would have been seriously injured like when he was forced to enter the space.
When the blast wave of the explosion subsided, Lucien took out a tube of Water Song and drank it. His face gradually recovered.
Perhaps it was because of the freezing effect of the Silent Coffin, the terrifying explosion did not last long. After a few seconds, it completely subsided. The ground was covered with gold powder, silver powder, and gemstones. Many divine items and materials were also destroyed.
"Huh?" Lucien carefully checked the surroundings. Suddenly, he found an ice-like crystal in the center of the explosion. It seemed that there was a mysterious shadow frozen inside.
Lucien picked up the crystal with Magician's Hand and confirmed that it was the residual ice left by Silent Coffin.
The shadow inside the crystal was a mass of mud-like flesh and blood. Through the flesh and blood, Lucien could vaguely see the pale face of Ramiro. His face was dull, like an ice sculpture that had been frozen for thousands of years.
"His body and soul are very special. When I used Silent Coffin to freeze his soul, both his body and his soul melted together without leaving any trace." Lucien sighed slightly. He cast a spell to seal the ice crystal. Then he took out the Morning Light crystal ball. Through the connection between himself and his doppelgänger, Lucien tried to find Ramiro's trump card to resurrect himself.
Lucien had seen Ramiro explode himself, and now he saw Ramiro standing in front of him alive. Even an ordinary person would know that Ramiro must have a way to come back to life. Considering Ramiro's strange ability to split and self-explode, Lucien guessed that Ramiro must have done this by splitting his body.
Since he was not sure if directly erasing Ramiro's remaining soul would kill him completely, Lucien chose to find the "thing" that Ramiro left behind first.
"This resurrection without the help of a magic ritual must be limited by space or time." Lucien began to investigate using magic from a semi-professional point of view. This resurrection method was not like the phylactery of the Lich or the improved Life Hiding spell. No matter how far away the target was or how long he had been unconscious, he could still be resurrected with the phylactery and items left behind.
Of course, if Ramiro's blood power was really that powerful, and the resurrection meat was hidden in the Holy City of Lance, Lucien could only accept it. As soon as he left the divine realm of the Lord of Underworld, he would leave this place as soon as possible and use the Secretive's special ability to avoid the pursuit of legendary figures.
Inside the crystal ball, the two spots of light gradually lit up, and a vague line appeared in the middle.
"Wait … Outside the divine realm? The reason why he came here was because he was setting up the trump card to resurrect himself. " Lucien understood. He put away the ice crystal and began to search for the materials and items that were still intact.
Since Lucien had frozen Ramiro's soul, there was no sign of him coming back to life. In this case, Ramiro might be a very good experiment material.
While searching, Lucien thought to himself, There are still some adamantine and mithril left. There are more Soul Stones and Blood-striped Steel than I expected. There is not much meteorite iron, but it's enough. I still have some adamantine, mithril, and copper in my pouch. Now I only need some ice iron. In addition, Lucien also found the Blood Flower of Styx, which could repair the Health Belt.
Suddenly, the whole palace started to shake violently. Lucien almost lost his balance. At the same time, wisps of black smoke rushed into the palace and dissolved everything.
"What's going on? What's Francis doing? "
"The Underworld is collapsing completely!"
Lucien hurriedly operated his Host Star of Destiny and tried to find a way out by using prophecy spells.
When the stars were changing, the light of the crystal ball pointed to the secret tunnel that Asin had entered.
"Isn't that the Underworld? It's the exit? " Lucien had planned to catch up with Asin and see what she was looking for. But now, he had no time to be disappointed. He cast Haste on himself and rushed into the tunnel.
On the wall of the tunnel, many ghosts were trapped in bricks. Their faces were twisted, and they reached out their transparent pale arms, trying to catch Lucien. However, they could not catch up with Lucien's speed. Lucien flew past them and they could only struggle on the spot. Then they were swallowed by the collapsing Underworld.
At the end of the tunnel, there was a palace. A headless Death Knight suddenly rushed out. Under the influence of the collapsing Underworld, he was so crazy that he rushed at Lucien with the overwhelming black smoke of death.
Lucien pointed with his right hand, and a green ray flew out and hit the level-six Death Knight who was guarding the secret tunnel.
The crazy Death Knight did not dodge but rushed at the ray. After being hit by the ray, his body and the black smoke of death dissipated into green light spots.
The sixth-circle spell, Disintegrate!
"It seems that the collapse of the Underworld has weakened him a lot." Lucien, who was preparing the second spell, did not waste any time and kept rushing forward. He wondered how Asin had left, but since Asin knew about the secret chamber of the Lord of Underworld, it was easy to understand.
At the bottom of the palace, there was a magnificent black gate. It was tightly closed, as if nothing could open it.
Behind Lucien, the collapsing Underworld was surging like tides and swallowing everything silently.
Lucien opened his mouth and cast a soundless spell. Invisible magic waves spread to the door, twisting the door.
The part of the gate that was affected suddenly became transparent, like a wall of black glass.
Lucien stepped forward quickly and leaned to one side. His right shoulder hit the gate, and the sound of glass breaking came from the gate. Crash!
The black glass fell to the ground. Lucien rushed out and felt the surging river.
The sixth-circle spell, Dulag's Glass Transformation!
Standing up, Lucien looked back at the disappearing Underworld. Suddenly, an idea came to him. He took out the crystal that had frozen Ramiro's soul. The piece of flesh inside was wriggling and the soul was expanding, as if it was about to explode.
"How did this work? What happened to the piece of flesh? "
Lucien was anxious. He cast Sea Cloak on himself and quickly swam to the place he had determined before.
He could not let Ramiro come back to life!
The distance was not far, but before Lucien arrived, the crystal that sealed Ramiro's soul had completely melted. The piece of flesh and the soul had disappeared together.
Turning around a huge rock in the river, Lucien approached it carefully, in case Ramiro, who had just been "revived", would attack him.
Pushing aside the water plants, Lucien was stunned. It was not Ramiro, but a blonde "girl". Her hair was tied neatly on the right side of her shoulder. Beside her, there was a long sword wrapped in black flames. In her hand, there was a strange branch with a piece of black meat on it.
She was rolling the piece of meat on the black flame of the long sword as if she was barbecuing it.
"What are you doing?" Lucien felt a strange sense of closeness and familiarity.
The "girl" turned around. Her red eyes were serious. "Roast beef jerky."
