Wizard Earl

Chapter 379 Assault (5)

Seeing that Dr. Gulsi was temporarily trapped, Connor did not hesitate at all, just to be on the safe side, and immediately turned the magic circle to its maximum to suppress Dr. Gulsi's magic power and mental power. He had not forgotten that Varga had told him that Teacher Gulsi still had one more top-tier second-order enchanted item that had not yet been revealed!

Although the evil god statue is strange and sinister, judging from the energy fluctuations on it, its power is only slightly stronger than that of an ordinary second-tier enchanted item, and it is still far from being a top-tier second-tier enchanted item!

Trapped in the Castia magic circle, Teacher Gulsi, though cunning, was clearly not good at fighting. Faced with the magic circle's suppression of his mental and magical power, a look of panic appeared on his face.

However, the pharmacist was indeed wealthy, and after a slight moment of panic, Dr. Gulsi took a deep breath and took out a revolver engraved with countless runes from her spatial ring. The appearance of this pistol immediately eased Dr. Gulsi's expression. She gripped the pistol tightly and warily looked around at the black mist.

"This is... a demonized item?"

Connor, observing the magic circle with his mental power, had a hint of surprise in his eyes. Although he hadn't yet sensed any enchanted energy fluctuations from the gun, it didn't prevent him from recognizing its true identity. With the advancement of technology, alchemists were creating increasingly diverse enchanted items, but to be honest, this was the first time he'd ever seen an enchanted gun. He wondered about its power... However, considering that Dr. Gulsi could pull it out in such a critical moment, one could imagine that this enchanted revolver was definitely powerful!

Thinking this, Connor became even more cautious. What he never expected was that this change in mindset would allow him to dodge a fatal blow a minute later…

"superior!"

At Connor's command from outside the magic circle, the black knights wielding sharp blades, hidden in the black mist within the Castia magic circle, immediately charged fearlessly towards Dr. Gulsi under the cover of the black mist!

"Sizzle!"

As a pharmacist, Dr. Gulsi was indeed not good at fighting. Faced with the attacks from all directions from the black mist suppressing her mental power, Dr. Gulsi, despite having the upper hand, appeared somewhat flustered. In the midst of the chaos, a black warrior driven by Connor even managed to launch a sneak attack, slashing a gash in Dr. Gulsi's back, from which blood trickled out.

However, before Connor could even feel smug, he noticed that Dr. Gulsi, who had been wounded by Darth Vader, had unexpectedly calmed down. She held up a revolver and began chanting incantations.

As the incantation appeared, Connor's expression changed immediately outside the magic circle. His spiritual power within the magic circle clearly sensed that, under the influence of the incantation, the revolver held by Dr. Gulsi, from which he had never felt any energy fluctuations, suddenly exhibited energy fluctuations no less than those of his Castia Staff. Clearly, this revolver was, without a doubt, the top-tier second-order enchanted item that Varga had mentioned in Dr. Gulsi's possession.

Before Connor could think any further, under Dr. Gulsi's command, the evil god statue formed a defensive barrier, protecting Dr. Gulsi within it and temporarily blocking the Black Knight's entanglement. And the revolver, to Connor's horror, locked onto Connor, who was standing outside the magic circle.

"Bang!"

As Dr. Gulsi finished her incantation, the revolver she held emitted a low thud, and an energy bullet flashing with dark green light shot out from the barrel in an instant. The power of the energy bullet was extremely violent, and in the blink of an eye, it pierced through the Castia magic circle and rushed straight to Connor!

Just as the energy bullet was less than a meter away from Connor's body, two huge rune chains wrapped in black flames suddenly shot out from Connor's hands and blocked the bullet.

"boom!"

The Shadow Chains and the energy bullet collided, creating a deafening roar. As the roar subsided, an unnatural flush appeared on Connor's face, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. This was the first time his innate spell, Shadow Chains, had been breached since he began practicing it. The spell was inextricably linked to Connor, and the breach caused him considerable backlash.

The energy bullets fired from Dr. Gulsi's revolver, although they destroyed Connor's Shadow Chains and continued to strike Connor, were ultimately blocked by the Shadow Chains, their power reduced by eighty or ninety percent. They could no longer pose a fatal threat to Connor and were blocked by the protective barrier of Connor's black magic robe.

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Connor's eyes showed a hint of relief. Luckily, he hadn't underestimated the revolver and had secretly prepared his innate spell in advance. Otherwise, if the Shadow Chain hadn't blocked it, he might already be dead if he had been hit by that terrifying energy bullet!

Feeling his fatal blow blocked by Connor, Dr. Gulsi's face clearly showed disappointment within the magic circle. At the same time, Connor outside the magic circle was also focused intently on the revolver in Dr. Gulsi's hand.

The power of that energy bullet was terrifying. It was no exaggeration to describe it as terrifying. The bullet shot out of the revolver and not only pierced through his Castia magic circle in an instant, but also shattered his proud talent spell, Shadow Chains, after piercing through the magic circle. Such power undoubtedly exceeded the scope of a top-tier second-order enchanted item!

As an alchemist, Connor could clearly sense the energy fluctuations emanating from the revolver. He was certain that although the revolver was powerful, it still fell into the category of second-tier enchanted items and had not reached the level of third-tier enchanted items. Therefore, according to the law of conservation of alchemy, a top-tier second-tier enchanted item like the one that attacked him earlier might fire energy bullets that exceeded the attack power range of second-tier enchanted items, but such an attack would certainly not be sustainable.
