Gu Fei didn't say anything else. It wasn't that he wanted Upstream's staff, but if he placed a higher bet, this person would be more serious in the fight. That would be more meaningful! Thinking of this, he waved his sword and said, "Don't go easy on me. It doesn't matter if you die, I will keep my promise." Gu Fei knew very well that going easy on him would greatly affect his strength.
Against the current, he smiled and said, "Come!"
There weren't many informants in the morning, and the streets were deserted. Upstream's companions retreated to the side and waited for the two of them to make their move.
Gu Fei took a deep breath and his expression turned serious.
Upstream was ranked 9th on the Sorcerer Ranking. He was a top-tier Sorcerer in the parallel world. Gu Fei didn't dare to underestimate these experts in the game. In many aspects, Gu Fei couldn't compare to them. The staff in Upstream's hand was very eye-catching, and it was obviously an exquisite item. This person's magic damage was probably at the level of being able to kill instantly.
"Fireball, shoot!" Gu Fei was the first to attack. He cast a Fireball and chased after it.
"Fireball, shoot!" Upstream also cast a Fireball, and then the staff in his hand slammed on the ground, "Frozen Ice Path, go!"
The ground made a "Bo" sound, followed by the continuous sound of footsteps that sounded like people walking on snow. A layer of ice that was more than a meter wide formed on the ground, and it spread toward Gu Fei's feet.
Gu Fei had never seen such a strange scene before. He was stunned, but he quickly took two steps to the side. The path paved with crushed ice covered the spot where Gu Fei had just landed, sparkling and translucent as the morning sun shone upon it.
"What is this?" Gu Fei asked curiously as he flicked away the Fireball in front of him.
"Hehe, it's a skill learned from a scroll. Fireball, shoot! "Upstream replied as he completed his chant. A Fireball ignited between his fingers, and it blocked the Fireball that Gu Fei shot. The two fireballs collided and shattered into sparks.
"Not simple!" Gu Fei exclaimed. The technique and eyesight required to steadily summon a fireball to block the opponent's fireball was even more difficult than directly swinging a sword to deflect the fireball.
"Excuse me," Countercurrent said humbly as he poked the ground with his staff again. "Frozen Path, let's go!"
Another wave of crushed ice came flying over. Gu Fei dodged to the side disapprovingly and said with a smile, "This move is quite nice, but it's too slow. How can it hit me?"
"Ice Tornado! Swirl! "This time, Countercurrent didn't say anything. After chanting, he unleashed an Ice Tornado.
Gu Fei moved his body sideways in an attempt to dodge, but the Ice Whirlwind clearly changed direction towards Gu Fei's direction. With this skill, the caster could control its movement for a certain period of time at the cost of continuous mana consumption.
The Ice Whirlwind wasn't slow, and its movement speed was only slightly faster than Superhuman Slender Waist Dance. Naturally, Gu Fei, who was slightly slower than Slender Waist Dance, couldn't catch up. Moreover, Countercurrent's remote control skill was quite good. During the match that day, he had controlled an Ice Whirlwind to block Slender Waist Dance, which was faster than him. Now, controlling it to hit Gu Fei wasn't a difficult task.
Seeing that he couldn't dodge it, Gu Fei made a prompt decision. He shouted "Dual Flame Flash" and met the attack head-on. Relying on his high proficiency in the [Dual Flame Flash], he dispersed the Ice Tornado.
Countercurrent didn't panic. He waved his hand and unleashed another Ice Whirlwind.
Gu Fei cursed inwardly. His lack of mana was a big problem. At most, he could only use Dual Flame Flash four times. Countercurrent seemed to have seen through this, so he wanted to exhaust Gu Fei's mana.
While he was thinking, the Ice Whirlwind had already arrived in front of him. Gu Fei helplessly unleashed another Dual Flame Flash to deal with it, but then quickly pointed his sword and said, "Heaven's Descent Wheel of Fire, descend."
"Hehe, your spell's delay is very long, don't you know?" Countercurrent laughed.
"Of course I know." Gu Fei said.
"Also … you can't trick me. With this spell of yours, I don't even need to move. But it's better to take two more steps forward. It's safer! "Going Against the Current said as he leisurely took two steps forward. Then, flames appeared in the sky behind him, and a ring of fire descended from the sky. Countercurrent glanced back and laughed, "Sure enough, those two steps were unnecessary. You're quite accurate with your spells. "
"You really are an expert." Gu Fei was also shocked. With his spell's delay, if he were to attack someone with a spell, they would have enough time to run away. So, he had to calculate his opponent's direction, and then launch a deceptive attack. The attack just now was because he thought that if he went against the current, he might be able to take advantage of the situation to pull away from Gu Fei. That was why he threw the Heaven's Descent Flame Wheel behind him, hoping to hit him head-on. However, he didn't expect him to see through it.
This was also very helpless. Gu Fei completely relied on guessing to predict the attack, but Countercurrent didn't. When casting a spell, during the chanting process, the hand or the weapon in the hand had to be pointed at the target. An experienced Mage like Countercurrent had already determined the location of the Heaven's Descent Wheel of Fire from Gu Fei's Dark Streak Sword.
Using the terminology that Gu Fei had come across since he started practicing martial arts, Countercurrent's eyes were fast, but Gu Fei's hands were too slow, so naturally he couldn't hit him at all.
"Ice Whirlwind, spin!" Countercurrent once again summoned an Ice Whirlwind.
But this time, Gu Fei was prepared, and he dashed out horizontally. He could only cast Dual Flame Flash again. Even if he could hit it this time, he wouldn't be able to hit it again. Therefore, he could only dodge and try to get close to Upstream before the Ice Whirlwind caught up to him. Or, when the Ice Whirlwind caught up to him, he could use a "Dual Flame Flash" to kill both Upstream and the Ice Whirlwind.
Thinking like this, Gu Fei's body moved quickly. He took a few steps diagonally, but this was the Frigid Path that Countercurrent had used before. The first one had already disappeared, but the second one was still there. Gu Fei didn't dare to step on it, so he lightly jumped over it. At the same time, he suddenly heard Countercurrent chant again, "Frigid Path, go!"
There was the same "bo" sound, but the speed was different. This time, the Frigid Path had already helped Gu Fei set up a foothold. Gu Fei took large strides, trying not to let his feet touch the ice, but he was still a step too slow. "Creak, creak." Gu Fei steadily stepped on the Frigid Path. Suddenly, a chill rose from the soles of his feet, and he lost all feeling in his legs. He wanted to take a step, but he didn't have the strength to do so, so he slowly moved half an inch.
Just as Upstream was about to say a few pleasantries, he suddenly saw Gu Fei put his sword back into his pocket, took off his Dark Moon Spiritual Robe, and pointed at the ground with his other hand as he muttered something.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Countercurrent was startled. The Frigid Path had frozen Gu Fei. He felt that victory and defeat had been decided, but he was confused by Gu Fei's strange actions.
Gu Fei smiled slightly, "I'm chanting!"
"Ah?" Countercurrent didn't react in time. Suddenly, flames rose from Gu Fei's feet and engulfed him.
Self-immolation? This guy wants to say that he committed suicide, so he didn't lose to me? Isn't he being shameless?
As Countercurrent was thinking, he suddenly saw Gu Fei rushing out of the flames. He was instantly dumbfounded.
Gu Fei's speed had obviously recovered, but the freezing effect shouldn't have been so short. Could it be that the Thousand Layers Flames had removed the freezing effect?
Logically speaking, fire was hot, so removing the freezing effect was reasonable. But Countercurrent didn't know if there was such a setting in the game. Even if there was, not many people would mess around like this. If he was hit by the freezing effect, then he would definitely suffer some damage. If he was hit by the Fire Tree Thousand Layers Flames, then wouldn't he really be burnt to ashes? Using a small fireball to warm his hands was still reasonable.
Although Countercurrent thought this way, the reality was that not only did Gu Fei's Thousand Layers Flames remove the freezing effect, the ice whirlwind that chased him also disappeared in the flames.
"There really is someone messing around like this!" Countercurrent didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Gu Fei had already arrived in front of him. Countercurrent didn't panic and said indifferently, "You've already lost."
"What?" Gu Fei was startled.
"Do you still have mana?" Countercurrent smiled. Two [Double Flame Flashes], one [Heavenly Fire Wheel], and one [Blazing Tree Thousand Layers Flames]. He had even thrown a small fireball earlier. Judging from Gu Fei's actions during the Celestial Guild Assembly, Going Against the Current must have exhausted his mana.
Gu Fei smiled faintly. "I can't beat you in terms of spells because that's not my strong suit."
After saying that, he took out the Baptism of Fire from his pocket and slashed at Countercurrent.
Countercurrent was shocked. He didn't expect this Mage to be so strong. He even had a knife hidden on him. Even without mana, he was fighting in melee. He really didn't have the demeanor of a Mage at all!
Just as he was thinking this, the knife was already slashing at his head. Countercurrent's reaction speed wasn't slow, and he raised his staff to meet the attack. They didn't expect Gu Fei's slash to be a feint to bully amateurs like them. Seeing that Countercurrent's staff had been drawn in, Gu Fei immediately retracted his sword and changed his move, slashing horizontally at Countercurrent's waist.
Countercurrent was hit by the knife, but when he saw the damage, he relaxed. He was afraid that Gu Fei had some strange tricks up his sleeve. But when he saw the damage, he realized that melee really wasn't a Mage's strong suit.
"Resist …" Countercurrent was just about to summon a Flame Ring of Resistance, but Gu Fei's second attack came unexpectedly fast. He only managed to say two words before the second attack landed on him. Not only was his chanting interrupted, but Gu Fei's blade also suddenly burned with a red light, and with a touch, it burned Upstream's body.
"Enchantment!" Countercurrent was startled. This attack method was very popular for a time because a guy with the number 27149 used this method to trample on a Thief, which attracted a lot of attention. And this person was a Mage, and his origin was Cloud City.
Countercurrent finally lost his calm. Was this Mage in front of him that guy? If that was the case, he could trample on Thieves in melee. Perhaps it was as he said, he wasn't good at spells.
"It's over!" Countercurrent spat out these two words in his heart. He wanted to chant, but he was once again interrupted by Gu Fei's quick knife, and the enchantment was ignited again. The enchantment of a Mage was not weak.
