Even though Dezerby and his Arbiters were already in such a miserable state, the Blood-Marked Evil Spirit Spider didn't think it was enough. It gave an order to its subordinates, and all the Evil Spirit Spiders let out a sharp shriek. Instantly, the power of the spiritual attacks on Connor and the others increased by half!
* Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong! *
As the spiritual attacks of the Evil Spirit Spiders increased in power, all the intermediate Apprentice Arbiters couldn't hold on any longer. They fell to the ground and fainted. As for the remaining two advanced Apprentice Arbiters and Dezerby, they were all bleeding from their noses and mouths. They might not be able to hold on any longer …
Sensing the "comrades" of the Church of the Storm around him, Connor quickly assessed the situation in front of him while resisting the spiritual attacks of the Evil Spirit Spiders.
For a Spirit Elemental Sorcerer like Connor, who always used spiritual attacks on others, it was a special experience to endure. However, with the strength of his Spirit, it would be an exaggeration to say that he didn't have any problems with the shrieking spiritual attacks of Dezerby and the Arbiters. But to be honest, it didn't pose much of a threat to him.
Even though Connor could protect himself, if Connor ran away and left Dezerby and the Arbiters of the Church of the Storm alone, it was foreseeable that Dezerby and his Arbiters would end up as food for the Evil Spirit Spiders. They would be torn apart and eaten bit by bit …
There was also no doubt that Connor would face the wrath of the Church of the Storm if he ran away alone. Connor could escape with Varga, but his Ferguson family in Flosinone wouldn't be able to escape no matter what. Therefore, even if it was for the sake of the Ferguson family, Connor wouldn't run away alone unless it was absolutely necessary.
The current situation was very dangerous, but it wasn't impossible for Connor to solve it. However, this method required Connor to bear a certain amount of risk, and this risk might cause him to not be able to leave as smoothly as he was now. Therefore, Connor was a little hesitant. However, if he didn't give it a try and just ran away, the Ferguson family would have to bear the wrath of the Church of the Storm. That was why Connor wasn't willing to accept it.
Just as Connor was thinking, the two advanced Apprentices by Dezerby's side finally couldn't hold on anymore and fainted on the ground. Dezerby, who was all alone, finally thought of Connor. This was the only thing that could save his life right now. He looked at Connor with pleading eyes and said with difficulty, "Save … me!"
Hearing Dezerby's cry for help, Connor knew that he couldn't delay any longer. He had to make a decision as soon as possible. Determination flashed through his eyes, and he made a decision in his heart.
Connor took a deep breath and then carefully took out a fist-sized crystal ball from his space ring. This crystal ball didn't look any different from an ordinary crystal ball on the surface, but Connor looked at it with dread, as if he was looking at something extremely dangerous.
A trace of pain flashed through his eyes, but Connor still resolutely cut his finger and let the blood from the wound drip onto the crystal ball. As Connor's blood dripped onto the crystal ball, the transparent crystal ball quickly changed. It bloomed with an extremely bright blue-black light, and an extremely violent energy fluctuation emerged.
Such a sudden energy fluctuation immediately attracted the attention of the highly intelligent Blood-Striped Evil Spirit Spider. However, just as it was about to do something, Connor had already waved his hand, and the crystal ball immediately flew towards it and the group of Evil Spirit Spiders around it.
"Boom!"
The crystal ball emitting blue-black light that had just flown to the Evil Spirit Spider's side immediately exploded. The huge shockwave from the explosion instantly tore a dozen Evil Spirit Spiders into pieces. The mental attacks that they had been maintaining all this time also came to an abrupt end. Even the Blood-Striped Evil Spirit Spider had two of its legs broken by the shockwave. The damage that Connor's crystal ball had done to the Evil Spirit Spiders was much greater than the damage that they had done to the group of Evil Spirit Spiders after fighting for so long.
Even though he'd caused great damage to the Evil Spirit Spiders, there wasn't the slightest trace of joy on Connor's face. He stared closely at the Evil Spirit Spiders in the distance and secretly activated the Black Magic Robe on his body. As long as the remaining Evil Spirit Spiders charged towards him, Connor would immediately abandon everything and run!
Although Connor had the crystal ball, there were reasons why he didn't use such a terrifying alchemy item at the beginning.
Firstly, although the crystal ball looked like a crystal ball, it was actually just another form of an alchemy bomb. If the Evil Spirit Spiders hadn't gathered together like they were now, even if he used the crystal ball, it wouldn't have caused such great damage to the Evil Spirit Spiders. On the contrary, if he used it in a close combat situation, there was a risk of accidentally injuring the group of Adjudicators!
Secondly, this crystal ball was refined using Connor's current highest level of alchemy as well as all the alchemy materials in his space ring. It could be said that it was very precious and was Connor's trump card. Connor had even thought that if he really met Reyes and was in a situation where he would definitely die, he would use this crystal ball to drag Reyes down with him. Therefore, it was inevitable that Connor would be reluctant to use such an important item for the sake of the Adjudicators of the Church of the Storm.
Thirdly, and this was the most important point. In the Sorcerer World, there were many opinions about magical beasts among various Sorcerers. However, there was only one characteristic that was universally acknowledged, and that was that magical beasts were all vengeful!
Connor had used the crystal ball to cause such great damage to the Evil Spirit Spiders, so they would definitely hate Connor very much. It was even very likely that they would abandon Dezerby and his Adjudicators and chase after Connor relentlessly. Facing a group of Evil Spirit Spiders that were determined to kill him in this forest, no matter how confident Connor was in his own abilities, he wasn't sure if he could escape unscathed …
