Chapter 204 Azuma: This is not the kind of strong man I want to fight
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Another explosion occurred somewhere in the academy, and Azuma's sturdy figure slowly emerged from a thick old tree.
The lost magic called Arc of the Tree can absorb the energy of the earth and condense it into fruit, causing explosions. It can also allow the user to merge into the tree and manipulate plants to attack and control.
The reason why we were able to break through the defense barrier of Demisool Magic Academy this time was because of his magic.
Azuma was a warmongering man who sought out stronger opponents, and although he did not kill as indiscriminately as the previous two during this attack, he did the most damage to the buildings.
The three explosions were the signal for a declaration of war.
Azuma didn't look back at the explosion, but instead crossed his arms and stared off into the distance, muttering to himself, "Is it finally here? A strong opponent that I can fight seriously against!"
A figure stepped out from the strong wind caused by the explosion, his knee-length cloak, which was white on the outside and blue on the inside, rustled, and the emerald gem in the necklace on his chest, which was originally crystal clear, now emitted an eerie green light.
Trample! Trample!
The heavy footsteps came from far away and gradually approached. With every step, the white boots left a five-centimeter-deep footprint on the ground. At the same time, a huge and condensed dark magic power continued to overflow from his body, gradually covering his entire body.
"You rat from the gutter actually dared to run into my territory and run wild. Are you tired of living?!"
Hearing the cold voice coming from the front, Azuma looked up and was suddenly shocked. He felt as if he saw a demon crawling out of the dark hell.
Conas was supposed to have long light blonde hair, wear a white slim dress, a matching cloak and long boots, but now, except for one exposed eye with a murderous cold light, her whole body was only one color.
It’s pitch black!
That was the color of her magic.
Snap!
A pair of black gloves were thrown casually on the ground. Azuma had good eyesight, so with just a quick glance, he noticed that there was a layer of black film on the inside of the gloves.
The color of this film is much darker than the gloves themselves. It is obviously not something that existed originally, but a product formed after a long period of sedimentation due to the magic cast on it, which blocks and suppresses the magic power that the wearer normally emits unconsciously.
Conas's eyes were so cold that they could freeze the surroundings. After taking off her gloves, her exposed hands were completely enveloped by the dark, gloomy and evil magic. At the same time, an extremely dangerous and violent magic surged three feet away from her body.
Azuma's heart was pounding, his pupils constricted, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead: This woman's magic... is not simple!
"So strong! This terrifying magic power is probably not weaker than the president's..."
He made a prompt decision, stretched out his right hand with five fingers spread out, and attacked first, calling on the power of the surrounding earth to condense around the woman, ready to detonate directly, but...
Buzz——!
The surging magic power was like a sound wave, sweeping outward in all directions without any dead ends. Wherever it passed, the originally condensed energy suddenly stagnated and weakened until it disappeared completely.
"This is?!"
Before he could be surprised by his opponent's ability, Azuma made another probing move, using two area attack magic spells at the same time.
"Branch Sword!"
"Leaf Sword!"
Calling upon the power of trees, countless branches and leaves condensed into shape in the air. The branch and leaf wooden swords were as dense as rain and attacked in the direction of Conas. However, before they could get close, they were swallowed up by the black magic around her. The branch and leaf wooden swords instantly lost all kinetic energy, and even the magic within them dissipated. The carriers of the magic, the overwhelming branch and leaf wooden swords, quickly decayed and aged, and were decomposed into dust in the air and scattered by the wind.
The black magic that was as solid as substance was not satisfied with simple defense and continued to advance towards Azuma.
Strong! This is a truly strong man!
But this is not the kind of strong man that I want to fight seriously !
What I want is an opponent who can fight me with fists, or at least with magic or weapons. It doesn't matter if I die in the process!
But if I fight against the woman in front of me, I won't be able to experience a thrilling battle. Instead, it will be like a cat and mouse chase. My attacks can't get close to her, and once I'm touched by her magic, I'll either die or be injured!
Azuma felt that what was attacking him was not ordinary magic, but a cold, dark, and irresistible energy. He was very familiar with the feeling of this magic. His companion Urrutia used a similar power, the power of time!
The difference is that Urrutia's Arc of Time is ineffective against living things, but the magic of the person in front of him does not have this flaw.
His years of experience fighting against the strong gave him a premonition that once he was touched by this magic power, he would never be able to escape. Unless he sacrificed the car to save the king and decisively abandoned the contaminated part, he would only be able to watch his body being corroded and aged by the magic power bit by bit.
whoosh!
Azuma's sturdy body flew out from the tree trunk, and he left the attacked tree at lightning speed before the dark magic got close to him.
"Aging... I see. Is that why I have to wear gloves?" After landing, he suddenly realized something and looked back at the black leather gloves on the ground. "If I'm not mistaken, that's also the lost magic, right?"
"You are indeed worthy of being one of the ten famous Saint Mages... No, should I say, you are indeed worthy of being the dean of Demisool Academy?"
Conas paused, then her murderous aura surged: "What did you mean just now... are you saying that I'm old?"
Azuma: ? ?
…
At this time, Kira was on his way to Demisool School of Magic.
In the sky, the flying carpet was already at its maximum speed. Haiberian put away the milk, frowned, and asked seriously, "Mr. Kira, are you sure that the devil's heart will not attack the examinee?"
Kira finally remembered Haiberion, and went back to pick up the people on the flying carpet, then left the candidates behind and flew directly towards the academy.
"I can only believe it! Compared to the unknown attack, the academy that is currently suffering is more important, right?"
According to Urrutia, they had originally planned to launch the attack early this morning, and it would take Conas and Gulan several hours to reach the academy by airship. Calculating the time, they should have already started fighting.
There are four people on the opposite side! And a group of soldiers. Can Conas, Gulan, and a teacher from the academy defeat them?
Thinking of this, Kira couldn't help but ask: "Senior, how strong is Speaker Gulan?"
He only knew that old man Gulan was great at magic research, but as for his strength… the entire Council was swept away by the jackal demon from the Nine Ghosts Gate, how strong could he be?
Although the Jackal had the halo of being the first appearance of the Nine Ghost Gates at that time, it also speaks volumes!
Haiberian recalled and said, "Chairman Gulan has studied magic for many years and can use many kinds of magic, but his strongest magic is cage magic, which can lock up enemies and even magic particles and other energies."
"I understand."
It means strong control but low output, and it also has other labels like weak defense, little magic power, and old physical strength.
But he hates evil and is really aggressive when encountering trouble! Where does he get the confidence to fight?
"You guys are really something. You should have told me this earlier!"
Haiberian said half-ashamedly and half-hardly, "I'm so sorry! But that is the 'Devil's Heart' after all, and its strength is a mystery. As the leading dark guild in decades, it is not an exaggeration to overestimate them. We don't know how many people they will send out, and whether they will attack the candidates, so we can only arrange it this way!"
If he wasn't worried that the Devil's Heart would split into two groups and attack or kidnap these candidates when attacking the academy, Haiberian would definitely go to the academy with Conas and Gulan first!
…
On the other side, Brunotte sneaked into the library of the magic academy alone.
Although he was cruel and warlike in his heart, he looked indifferent and calm, as if nothing could attract his attention. He unconsciously emitted an invisible gravity from his body, which pressed all the stone statues and potted plants to the ground and crushed them into powder wherever he passed.
There were one or two people who mustered up the courage to launch an attack, but they couldn't even get close to him, because if they got a little closer, they would be pressed to the ground by the strong gravity and unable to move. Bruno not even looked at them, ignoring them like ants on the roadside.
"No...you are not allowed to go over there..."
Hearing the voice, Brunot looked back and said, "Say! Where is the lost magic book?"
"Lost... So this is your purpose?"
"You won't tell me? Or you still don't know? If that's the case, then there's no need to keep it!"
Brunotte said coldly and turned away.
“Ahhh!”
In the huge pit created by magic, gravity suddenly increased, crushing the figure kneeling and struggling to survive into a bloody corpse.
