"Bang!"
These eight azure ice pillars were as fast as lightning. One second, they were beside Firo, and the next second, they were right in front of Connor. Connor was caught off guard and didn't have time to activate Castilla's Barrier to protect himself.
Fortunately, with the help of the auxiliary A.I. Chip, Connor's cultivation of Hades' Dark Body had reached an extremely high level. The Dark Armor Spell had already become an instinctive part of his consciousness.
The instant before the eight azure ice pillars hit Connor, a layer of dark armor condensed from dark energy automatically appeared on Connor's body and wrapped him up tightly.
However, the eight azure ice pillars were too powerful. Even with the protection of the Dark Armor Spell, Connor was still knocked into the light barrier of the magic formation. If it wasn't for the light barrier, Connor might have even flown out of the magic formation.
"Cough!"
Although Connor's life was not in danger due to the protection of the Dark Armor Spell and he didn't suffer any serious injuries, he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood after falling to the ground. Even so, Connor didn't care about his injuries. He clapped his right hand heavily and Castilla's Magic Staff in his hand. In an instant, a blue-black Castilla's Barrier protected Connor. With the protection of the Castilla's Barrier, Connor's eyes finally calmed down.
Even though he had severely injured Connor, Milik, who had lost his mind and had his organs splattered all over the ground, didn't have the strength to continue attacking. His eyes were filled with murderous intent as he looked at Connor and then at Firo. Although it was obvious that he was unwilling to give up, he finally couldn't hold on any longer. His throat gurgled twice, and his body swayed as he fell into the magic formation. He was no longer breathing.
Seeing that Milik was dead, Connor and Firo finally relaxed. However, Connor and Firo soon seemed to have understood something. They began to look at each other. Firo silently clenched the inconspicuous dagger in his hand, while Connor didn't have the slightest intention of removing the Barrier around him.
As time passed, the atmosphere between Connor and Firo gradually became tense. If this continued, he would definitely fight with Firo. Connor, who didn't want to fight with Firo yet, hesitated for a while, and took the initiative to change his mind. With a move of his mind, a light door suddenly appeared on the magic formation light screen.
Seeing that Connor took the initiative to show goodwill and let him leave the magic formation, Firo took a deep look at Connor. He didn't dare to refuse Connor's kindness and slowly walked out of the magic formation through the light door.
After Firo left the magic formation, Connor, who was left alone in the magic formation, removed the Barrier around him. Then, he took out the recovery potion that Varga had refined for him from his space ring and drank it. After drinking the potion, Connor didn't meditate to digest the potion as usual. Instead, he went to Milik's corpse and began to deal with it.
Judging from Milik's status in the Church of the Storm, as well as the storm token on his body that symbolized Hummel, Connor was 99% sure that Milik definitely had the mark of the Church of the Storm on him. Once he died, the Church of the Storm would follow these marks and kill him.
And if Milik died in Connor's magic formation, although Connor still wouldn't be able to stop the Church of the Storm from sensing Milik's death, with the help of the magic formation, the alchemist Connor could also play some tricks on Milik's death. He could lead the people who were investigating Milik in the wrong direction, thus better protecting himself and covering up the truth of Milik's death.
This was also why Connor refused Firo's request to leave the magic formation and insisted on letting Milik die in the magic formation. Firo had completely broken off his relationship with the Church of the Storm and offended the Church of the Storm. Even if the Church of the Storm knew that Milik was killed by him, Firo wouldn't suffer any losses. However, Connor still had his family to feed, so he still had to be careful.
Connor first removed everything from Milik's body, including his interspatial ring, and put them aside. Then, he took out some small medicine bottles from the interspatial ring and sprinkled the fine white powder on Milik's corpse. It was unknown what the white powder was, but ten seconds after the white powder was sprinkled, the skin of Milik, who had lost his mind after consuming the Green Magic Date and died of exhaustion, returned to the normal color of a human body.
Seeing this, Connor smiled with satisfaction. Then, without looking at what was in Milik's interspatial ring, he put Milik's interspatial ring and some other small things that Milik carried with him into a sealed clay jar filled with some kind of liquid. Then, Connor put the clay jar and Milik's corpse together, and poured his special kerosene together.
After doing all this, Connor immediately walked out of the magic formation and tapped lightly on the compass that controlled the magic formation. This magic formation called the Anselon Maze immediately emitted a huge energy fluctuation. After a few seconds, there was a loud roar and an explosion occurred in the center of the magic formation. A ten-meter-high pillar of fire rose from the magic formation into the sky.
Under the impact of the shockwaves of the explosion, the heavily damaged Ansellon Maze was immediately torn apart. It fell apart.
"Connor Ferguson, you set up an alchemy bomb under the magic formation?"
Looking at the pillar of fire rising into the sky, Firo, who had been waiting for Connor outside the magic formation, seemed to have understood something. His face instantly became very ugly, and he spoke to Connor in a low voice. Although it sounded like Firo was asking Connor, from his tone, he seemed to have confirmed this fact.
Knowing that he could not hide it from Firo, Connor did not try to hide it, and there seemed to be no need to hide it now. He immediately nodded slightly, indicating that Firo was right, and then explained, "It's reserved for dealing with Milik's corpse!"
Although Connor gave an explanation, Firo's furious look showed that he did not buy Connor's explanation at all.
At this moment, the explosion of the alchemy bomb in the magic formation finally triggered the kerosene that Connor poured on Milik's corpse. In the magic formation that fell apart, a sea of fire formed and burned everything in a few seconds.
