Chapter 218 Encirclement and Kill

That being the case!

Gremy's face hardened.

The High Priest's plan is nearing its end. As for me, even if I am exposed, I believe Lord Nicol will not blame me.

In an instant, a bright green light shield enveloped his entire body.

But this is just the beginning.

Gremi gently rubbed an ancient, emerald-green bracelet on his right wrist, and began to chant a barely audible incantation.

Richard, of course, could not allow his opponent to calmly unleash a sorcery attack. He immediately released a mental shockwave at Gremi, while simultaneously ordering the vengeful spirits and the blood-bone puppets to attack from both sides.

The first thing to hit the opponent was Richard's mental attack. When the transparent wave bombarded Gremi's emerald green light shield, the surface of the light shield rippled, but it was basically intact.

Richard frowned immediately at the opponent's formidable defensive power.

Suddenly, Gremi's emerald bracelet shattered with a "crack"!

Suddenly, three flickering emerald green flames appeared in front of him.

"Chain!!" came Gremy's shout.

Three wisps of emerald green flames exploded instantly!

The next second, three emerald green fireballs, each the size of a washbasin, hovered around Gremi and began to spin rapidly around him.

Gremi extended his left hand and made a feint push, sending one of the three fireballs directly at the fastest and closest Blood Bone Puppet.

With another feint, he pushed the second emerald fireball in front of him toward the vengeful spirit.

Finally, with a powerful push of both hands, he sent the last emerald fireball hurtling straight at Richard.

With the help of the shattered emerald bracelet, Grey-robed Gremi unleashed a powerful spell that simultaneously struck three targets, each with immense power, each strike possessing the strength of a high-level first-tier spell.

In an instant, Gremi displayed his formidable strength.

"boom!"

The emerald fireball that struck the Blood Bone Golem exploded first.

The Blood Bone Puppet was blasted back several steps before finally coming to a stop!

For the first time, a tiny crack appeared in the bones of his left arm, which were intersecting in front of his chest, and the emerald green flames, like a malignant sore, were still slowly burning.

After the Blood Bone Puppet slashed at the skeleton several times with its bone blade, the emerald green flames slowly dissipated, but the once snow-white skeleton was now charred black.

This should be the first time the Bloodbone Golem has been injured!

Meanwhile, another fireball struck the vengeful spirit with great force!

The blow sent the vengeful spirit staggering, its heavy body blasted apart, leaving large patches of skin and muscle torn from its chest. The crucial point was that the emerald green flames continued to burn and scorch the vengeful spirit's chest, filling the air with the intense smell of burnt meat.

This drew the attention of Grace, Fana, and the others who were engaged in fierce combat nearby!

The vengeful spirit shook its dizzy head, feeling the stinging pain in its chest, and couldn't help but roar to the sky!

At the same time, he wielded a giant iron axe and ruthlessly sliced ​​off all the still-burning skin and muscle tissue from his chest.

Clearly, Gremy's attack severely injured the vengeful spirit.

The power and difficulty of the opponent's two fireballs instantly caused Richard's pupils to shrink.

Richard immediately abandoned his original plan to directly confront the green fireball.

Richard dodged and quickly jumped to the right.

But Gremy, seeing the sly look on his face, held up two fingers of his right hand and shouted, "Guide!"

The emerald fireball instantly traced a large arc as it continued its attack on Richard.

Richard knew inwardly that something was wrong!

The other party actually knows a type of auxiliary witchcraft that guides mental energy.

"Mental shock!"

Richard instantly unleashed a transparent wave that struck the emerald fireball.

But this is not over yet!

The mimicry bracer on his left wrist quickly extended and transformed into a silver shield, blocking his path.

Then, Richard unusually used his third innate sorcery.

"Soul Link!"

In an instant, a strange fluctuation connected him with the vengeful spirit.

"boom!"

The transparent mental shock exploded instantly upon colliding with Gremi's emerald fireball!

However, it was clear that the emerald fireball was more powerful and had the upper hand. The shockwave after the explosion, mixed with a large number of scattered emerald flames, splashed out in a large area in Richard's direction.

Instantly, Richard's view was blocked.

Although most of the flames were blocked by the silver shield, the small amount of emerald green flames that clung to Richard's black bone armor were like sparks, stubbornly burning the black bone armor.

Before Richard could quickly extinguish it, a sharp claw burning with emerald green flames slammed heavily into Richard's right shoulder.

"Bang!!"

The black bone armor at the point of impact shattered instantly, and Richard was sent flying seven or eight meters.

The three blue fireballs just now made Gremy instantly realize that his feeling was correct.

The black-armored man's strength was not as high as he had imagined; it was just that his summoned creatures were stronger.

However, the opponent's defense is also quite good.

Gremy looked down at his hand, which had transformed into claws.

What I originally thought would at least break a bone has now turned out to have only caused some superficial wounds.

"Pooh!"

Richard quickly rolled over and spat out a mouthful of phlegm with blood in it!

His gaze was fixed on the gray-robed man in front of him. At this moment, his right shoulder was in excruciating pain, but he could still move it with difficulty, so it seemed that no bone was broken.

Fortunately, I had just used my innate sorcery Soul Link to transfer half of the damage to the vengeful spirit.

Otherwise, despite the protection of the black bone armor, his scapula would probably be fractured by now.

The opponent's emerald green flames were incredibly powerful, scorching the once pristine black bone armor on his body, leaving it riddled with holes.

Richard knew that he had probably met a formidable opponent this time!

Under normal circumstances, once he unleashes his full power after acquiring the Blood Bone Puppet, even if the opponent has the strength of a high-level level one, they will not be his match.

Could it be that the opponent's strength is at the top level?

Wow! This form!

Richard then realized that the other person's appearance had changed drastically!

The opponent's hands, which were originally of normal size, have now turned into large, sharp claws. No wonder they have such high attack power; this is some kind of mutation.

Suddenly, the gray-robed man opposite them tore off his gray robe, revealing that he was a rare red-scaled lizardman wizard, judging from the parts of his body that had not yet been mutated.

"You almost fooled me. You only relied on some strange summoned creature. Your actual strength is definitely no more than mid-level one."

"Hehe, one minute!"

"I can take you down in just one minute!"

"(Demon's words) Great Lord of the Azure Flame, hear the prayer of your devout and humble servant, Gremi, and grant me..."

The red-scaled lizardman named Gremi has undergone a further dramatic change in his physical appearance!

Two small bumps suddenly appeared on his once smooth forehead, and quickly grew into a pair of sharp, curved horns. His slender body also grew to almost twice its size, with muscles that were deeply intertwined. His lower body transformed into the lower body of a ram and sturdy hooves.

At the same time, his aura surged!

-

Villa Dessol.

Desol was seen lying on the ground, his breath fading.

Not far from him, a monster that looked remarkably similar to Gremi in his transformed state was looking at the fallen Desol with a smile on its face.

It was Nicol, the priest of the Bihuo Church.

Suddenly, his expression changed, and he thought to himself:

"Huh! What's going on? That guy Gremi! Doesn't he know this will attract the attention of the higher-ups in Tug City?"

"However, the timing doesn't really matter, as the other party most likely won't have time to deal with this matter."

Nicol pondered for a moment, then smiled and said to Dissol:

"Old drunkard, tell me your last words, and I can grant you one last wish before you die."

-

The control room on the first floor of the Tug City Lord's Mansion.

Baghdadi and Hawkins are waiting for the other second-level archmages to arrive.

suddenly!

On the table in the center of the room, a tiny green light suddenly appeared on the enormous sand table of Tug City.

Judging from the location, it seems to be located somewhere in the inner ring villa area.

Apart from the fist-sized patch of yellow in the northeast corner of the sand table, there were hardly any other bright spots on the entire sand table, so this patch of emerald green was exceptionally clear.

"Huh! This is the mark fluctuation of the Azure Flame Cult! But I can't leave right away, I need to send someone to check it out immediately." Baghdadi frowned and muttered to himself.

The large-scale witch array control core located in the city lord's mansion can autonomously identify the special imprint fluctuations of the major cults and categorize and display them on the sand table on the table.

Hawkins, deep in thought, heard Baghdadi's mutterings and comforted him, "Old friend, the most pressing issue now is the sealing. As for the Azure Flame Cult..."

Suddenly, Hawkins' eyes widened, and he abruptly stopped mid-sentence.

Because he had just glanced up unintentionally and clearly seen the location of the light spots emanating from the sand table.

"Isn't that Levi's place?" Hawkins blurted out.

The sand table had military applications, so it was made with exceptional detail and lifelike realism.

Therefore, Hawkins recognized the villa at a glance as the place where he had participated in the auction of shares in the new beer brand a few days ago, and it was also Levi's residence.

"I have to go right away! That kid Levi is a rare 'treasure' that our Grey Dwarf Brotherhood has found."

Hawkins had just lifted his foot when Baghdadi grabbed him.

"Wait, who just said the most urgent task is to seal it?"

"Besides, if you leave and we're missing a level two wizard, what if we can't activate the suppression magic array?"

"You stay here, I'll send Muriel there!"

Hawkins, who was about to say something, nodded when he heard that Baghdadi had sent out his personal guard captain. His anxiety eased slightly.

"If it's Muriel, then there shouldn't be any problem."

Muriel, the captain of the city lord's personal guard, is a top-tier first-order wizard and a full-time combat wizard. He has extremely rich combat experience, and it is unlikely that an ordinary second-order wizard, unless exceptionally powerful, could defeat him in a short period of time.

-

Inside Richard's villa.

With a powerful stomp of his massive ram hoof, Gremi caused the ground to crack instantly, sending dirt flying everywhere.

With a "whoosh," he left only a blur before appearing in front of Richard in the next second.

Richard reacted extremely quickly, instantly slashing the Ice Guardian down at Gremi while simultaneously extending his Mimicry Bracers into an arm shield to block in front of him.

"Snapped!"

The Ice Guardian, who had been with Richard for so long, was actually shattered by Gremi's claw!

"boom!"

After Gremi shattered Richard's Ice Guardian with his left hand, his right hand, wreathed in emerald flames, slammed heavily into Richard's arm shield, creating a noticeable dent.

At the joints of Richard's left arm, there was a faint grinding sound as he was pushed back several steps.

Just as Gremi was about to give chase.

At this moment, the Bloodbone Puppet had arrived behind Gremi, and two sharp bone blades "whooshed" out from its elbow joints, delivering a cross slash to Gremi's back.

The powerful slash made Gremi afraid to take the blow head-on with her back. She twisted her body to face the bloodbone golem and delivered two claw strikes with a "whoosh!"

"Ding ding!"

Sparks flew everywhere!

Richard was shocked to learn that the opponent was on par with the Blood Bone Puppet in terms of strength. No wonder he had been so easily defeated.

The opponent's physical strength after the mutation was surprisingly formidable.

"Ding ding ding!"

"Snap!" A rib was broken in the left chest of the Bloodbone Puppet by Gremi.

However, the Bloodbone Golem did not come away empty-handed.

Gremi's emerald green shield finally broke under the continuous slashes of the Blood Bone Puppet!

"Mental shock!"

The instant Gremi's emerald green shield disappeared, Richard swiftly seized the opportunity and unleashed his innate sorcery.

This made Gremy feel slightly dizzy, and he shook his head.

Although this process lasted for less than half a second.

But

"boom!"

A giant axe cleaved down from the side at Gremi, instantly sending him flying seven or eight meters away.

Although Gremi's body was extremely strong after his entire body was transformed, the giant iron axe that the vengeful spirit hated was extremely heavy and powerful.

The blow instantly tore a 20-30 centimeter-long gash in Gremy's left shoulder blade, exposing the scarlet muscle and splattering a large pool of blood.

The vengeful spirit, having successfully launched a sneak attack, now narrowed its small eyes to slits, grinned, revealing a set of uneven, yellowed teeth, seemingly mocking Gremy.

This instantly enraged Gremi, who roared, his skin turning red and veins bulging!

"Whoosh!"

He was like a sharp arrow, hurtling straight at the vengeful spirits.

Richard was delighted upon seeing this. It seemed that after the other party underwent mutation, it would cause a normally rational wizard to gradually lose his judgment.

The wisest tactic was for the opponent to chase and attack him from the start.

But now, after being injured by the vengeful spirit, it doesn't even glance at me, chasing after the vengeful spirit instead. This must be a side effect of the alienation: irritability.

The opportunity is coming!

"Release the vengeful spirits!" Richard commanded the vengeful spirits instantly.

A white, transparent, humanoid stream of energy, carrying several strands of grayish-white energy, collided instantly with the oncoming gray line.

"Pfft pfft pfft!"

A series of sounds, like bubbles bursting, rang out!

Whether white or grayish-white, the transparent spirits only lasted a second or two before being completely killed by Gremy's claws, which were wreathed in emerald green flames.

Just as Gremi was licking his lips, still savoring the kill, the one or two seconds he wasted were seized upon by the vengeful spirit.

"Splash!"

A chain as thick as a wrist instantly wrapped around Gremi's waist, and a strong force immediately came from the other end of the chain.

Gremi, who was already charging towards the vengeful spirit, had momentum, and with the heavy pull of the chain, he instantly collided head-on with the vengeful spirit.

"Snap!"

A sound of ribs contracting echoed from Gromy's body!

The vengeful spirit, with its strong arms as thick as an adult's thigh, clung tightly to Gremi, squeezing her!

Gremy was also nearly suffocating from the pressure, his face flushed red. However, his claws, wreathed in emerald flames, were deeply embedded in the grotesque belly of the vengeful spirit.

A sizzling sound came from the caramelized wood.

Both sides fought tooth and nail!

From its original yellow fat to the current gushing blood like tap water, Gremy's claws had now pierced through the fat layer of the vengeful spirit's belly and reached its internal organs.

The vengeful spirit was in agony, but despite the severe injury, it continued to cling tightly to Gremi, squeezing him with its thick arms.

Just when everyone thought the vengeful spirits were about to cause all their efforts to fail.

"Pfft!"

Two sharp bone blades pierced through Gremi's body from behind, and two white blade tips immediately emerged from his chest!

It was a sneak attack by the Blood Bone Puppet!

Taking advantage of the moment when the vengeful spirit held Gremy tightly, it delivered a fatal blow from behind!

In an instant, Gremi felt all the strength in his body drain away with the blood gushing from the two large holes in his chest, and he began to revert from his mutated form back to his original lizardman form.

"Pfft!"

After the Blood Bone Puppet was pulled out, the double blades were inserted again!

"ah!!!"

Gremy turned his head toward Richard with a ferocious expression. Although he was vomiting blood, he seemed to have a moment of clarity before death and began to mutter unknown incantations.

"not good!"

Richard's expression immediately changed drastically.
