After all, the energy in the Castiya Staff was fixed and not infinite. If Connor had used the Castiya Staff to counterattack when the situation was unfavorable, he might have been able to slightly change the situation where he was suppressed. Now that the energy had been depleted, he might not have been able to withstand Old Victor's outburst.
After thinking for a few seconds, Connor shifted his gaze to Martina who was beside him. After exchanging blows with Old Victor, Connor was very clear that he could only protect himself. If he wanted to kill Old Victor, he must have a helper. However, before coming to the fishing village of Aravis, he was afraid that Martina would escape out to sea. Therefore, Connor left in a hurry and didn't have the time to contact Marguerite. He could only come here alone.
Although this allowed Connor to stop Martina who wanted to escape, it also left Connor without a helper. Now that Marguerite wasn't here, perhaps the only helper that Connor could count on now was the severely injured Martina!
Seeing Connor looking at her, Martina wasn't stupid. She naturally understood the meaning of Connor's gaze. She shook her head resolutely, indicating that she didn't have the ability to help him fight against Old Victor as she was severely injured.
"You've seen the current situation. I'll give you three seconds to prepare. Use your green longbow and shoot an arrow at Old Victor when I need it. Of course, if you refuse, Martina, I won't force you. But if that's the case, I'll have to break out of the encirclement alone. You're on your own now!" Connor said calmly.
Martina became anxious after hearing Connor's words. She immediately emphasized her final value to Connor and said to Connor, "Connor, don't you want to know what Reyes did to you with the Abyss Secret Method? Don't you know that you'll die in Reyes' hands soon? And don't forget the oath that you just made to the Eye of Arbitration! "
Martina's threat made Connor reveal a sneer. He said calmly, "Of course I want to know what Teacher did to me with the Abyss Secret Method. But will you tell me now? I can't deal with Old Victor alone. If I don't leave now, I won't be able to leave when my mana is depleted. Won't that be the same as dying with you, Martina? As for the oath of the Eye of Arbitration, I only said that I won't hurt you, but I didn't say that I'll protect you! "
Connor's words made Martina speechless for a moment. She stared at Connor fiercely, but she didn't know what to say.
"I'll ask you one last time. Are you going to attack or not? If not, I'll leave now!" Connor said solemnly as he looked at Martina's pale face. As he said that, the black mage robe on Connor's body lit up with a faint black light. One of his hands was also holding the Castilla Magic Staff tightly. It seemed like he was going to put away the Castilla Barrier and run away!
"One arrow! Just one arrow! "
Seeing that Connor was serious, in order to survive, Martina could only harden her heart and agree to Connor's request. She said in a deep voice,
"Very good! After five seconds, I'll release another mental attack on Old Victor. This time, Old Victor will feel a temporary dizziness. Take advantage of this opportunity and immediately shoot an arrow at Old Victor's forehead. There's only one chance. Don't let me down! " Connor squinted his eyes and looked at Old Victor who was outside the barrier. At the same time, he instructed Martina in a low voice.
While Connor was instructing Martina, under Old Victor's control, the five golden light pillars gradually compressed the Castilla Barrier into an extremely small area. If this trend continued, Connor's Castilla Barrier would be broken by the golden light pillars. The countdown had already begun.
Witnessing this scene, Connor took a deep breath and his expression immediately turned solemn. The silver pendant on his hand suddenly exploded with the most resplendent rays of light. Following which, Connor no longer held back his spiritual force. The most terrifying mental attack below the level of an official Magus was instantly released by Connor towards Old Victor.
Just as this mental attack was released and had yet to reach Old Victor, Connor's complexion turned pale. The amount of spiritual force required to release this mental attack was too great. Connor did not dare to be negligent and immediately took out potions from his space ring to recover.
The speed of mental attacks was extremely fast and there were no signs. Although Old Victor was vigilant in his heart and had the protection of the black stone ring on his thumb, he was still hit head-on by Connor's all-out attack. A painful expression crept onto his aged face. Even the five golden light pillars that he was controlling were temporarily paused.
However, at this moment, Martina realized that there was an opportunity. With a solemn expression, she quickly took out the peak rank 2 offensive magic artifact that came from the King's faction and was personally refined by Connor's mentor, Reyes — Kahn's Magic Bow!
Although she agreed to take action unwillingly under Connor's coercion, Martina was not a fool. Although she was unwilling, she was very clear that this was the best opportunity for her and Connor to deal with Old Victor. If this attack failed, then there would be no more chances.
Picking up the Kahn's Magic Bow, Martina followed Connor's instructions and aimed at Old Victor's forehead. A green arrow was released from her hand and tore through the air towards Old Victor's forehead!
Under the watchful eyes of Connor and Martina, the Green Light Arrow arrived in front of Old Victor in a flash. However, just when Connor and Martina were praying that this arrow would hit Old Victor's forehead and kill him in one shot, a scene that made them extremely disappointed appeared. The Green Light Arrow pierced through Old Victor's protective golden light. As soon as it came into contact with Old Victor's skin, Old Victor, who was enduring a headache, grabbed it with his left hand and couldn't move forward anymore!
Clang!
Old Victor fiercely threw the Green Light Arrow that he was holding onto onto the ground. Even though he managed to grab onto the arrow and avoid the fate of being shot by Martina, Martina's all-out attack still managed to injure Old Victor. A medium-sized Sky Eye opened between Old Victor's eyebrows. Old Victor's blood flowed out from this Sky Eye. Under the contrast of the crimson red blood, Old Victor's aged face appeared even more terrifying, causing others to shudder in fear just by looking at him.
