Wizard Earl

Chapter 631 Silencing

Hearing Connor warn him to be careful, Tusam froze on the spot, not knowing what Connor meant. However, the next moment Tusam felt a cold arrow with a green glow flying towards his head from a distance at an extremely fast speed. The arrow was so fast that before Tusam could react, it had already pierced into the black aura protecting him.

The most terrifying and bizarre scene unfolded: the black aura that Tusam had released, which had prevented Connor's innate spell, Abyssal Chains, from advancing even an inch, was swiftly sliced ​​through by the green light on the arrow as easily as cutting tofu. It offered no protection whatsoever. Tusam, who had never expected this, was pierced through the temple by the arrow. He didn't even have time to struggle before collapsing to the ground right in front of Connor, his mouth agape and his black pupils filled with terror.

"SHIT"

Watching Tusam being silenced right before his eyes by a stray arrow that had forced him back in the swamp, Connor cursed under his breath in frustration as he turned and sped off into the pine forest to the northwest. Although the arrow had come suddenly and swiftly, catching both Connor and Tusam off guard, after killing Tusam, Connor's mental energy successfully pinpointed the direction from which it had been fired.

Upon seeing Connor discover his location, the mysterious figure in the pine forest unleashed a flurry of arrows. Within seconds, five more green arrows shot out from the forest, aimed directly at Connor's throat, brow, heart, and other vital areas.

Upon seeing the five incoming arrows, a look of seriousness flashed in Connor's eyes. He waved his Castiel Staff, and the Castiel Barrier immediately protected Connor's entire body. Connor had already experienced the power of these arrows in that swamp, and given the bizarre death of Tusam just now, Connor was naturally extremely cautious and dared not be careless in the slightest!

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

These five arrows were incredibly fast. Less than three seconds after Connor's Castilian Barrier was activated, they had already struck, exploding on the barrier and causing it to tremble and dim. Feeling the tremors of the protective barrier in front of him, Connor's expression darkened. Although his Castilian Staff wasn't a dedicated defensive item against enchanted items, the Castilian Barrier it released, optimized by him as an alchemist, was in no way inferior to a top-tier second-tier enchanted item in terms of defensive capabilities.

The fact that these five green-glowing arrows could damage his Castia Barrier to this extent demonstrates just how powerful they are. What worries Connor most is that while these arrows were strong in the swamp last time, they weren't as powerful as these five. This could be because either the arrows' effectiveness has improved significantly in less than a month, or the mysterious person who fired them in the swamp last time held back and didn't go all out!

After withstanding the attack of five green arrows, Connor immediately continued his pursuit into the pine forest. He knew that the mysterious man's purpose in shooting those five arrows was to prevent him from catching up with him, so he absolutely could not let the mysterious man succeed!

Although the identity of this mysterious person is still unknown, it is clear that this mysterious person is not a formal wizard, otherwise he would not have needed to run away. It would have been Connor who had to run away. Since he is not a formal wizard, Connor really does not believe that this guy who dares not show his face can continue to output attacks like the Green Light Cold Arrow, which almost broke through his Castia Barrier.

Rushing into the pine forest, Connor headed straight for the direction he had just locked onto with his mental energy. With the help of the Black Magic Robe's lightness spell, Connor advanced nearly a thousand meters in one breath and reached the center of the pine forest. Connor stopped, a look of doubt appearing in his eyes.

His mental focus was clearly on this location just now, so why couldn't he find any trace of the other party after arriving here?

Connor stood there for a while, lost in thought. Then he turned his gaze to a large pine tree more than a meter in diameter, about ten meters away from him. After carefully examining the tree, Connor's expression turned serious. With a wave of his hand, a Yin Demon Slash shot out from it!

"Splash, splash..."

Under Connor's incredibly sharp Yin Demon Slash, even though this pine tree may have been decades or even centuries old, with lush branches and a large size, it was still instantly severed, and the trunk of the pine tree crashed to the ground.

Upon seeing this, a glint of light flashed in Connor's eyes. Without a second thought, he walked toward the large pine tree. As he approached, Connor examined the trunk of the pine tree. Suddenly, Connor slapped the trunk with his large hand, and a metal cube, no bigger than a palm, was ejected from the trunk and landed in Connor's hand.

After examining the metal cube, Connor's eyes flashed with anger at being fooled, and he slammed the cube to the ground.

"Bang!"

Perhaps Connor used too much force, or perhaps the metal cube was poorly made and malfunctioned; the metal cube, which Connor slammed to the ground, shattered into pieces. Surprisingly, some dark green liquid seeped out from the broken pieces and appeared in Connor's view.

Connor, who was initially furious at realizing he had been lured away by the mastermind, paused slightly after noticing the dark green liquid. A name flashed through his mind: "Quirin Venom."

Recalling the name of Quilin Venom, Connor found the dark green liquid increasingly similar to the Quilin Venom described in ancient texts, and a look of fear flashed in his eyes. He immediately shot away from the pine forest. Three seconds after Connor left, without warning, a vast expanse of dark green will-o'-the-wisps appeared within a ten-meter radius of the shattered metal cube. These green flames were extremely terrifying; in just a few seconds, more than ten large pine trees, some decades old, within the range of the flames were all reduced to ashes, and even the soil turned an eerie green…

Connor, who narrowly escaped death by three seconds, stood not far away watching the will-o'-the-wisp burn. There was no relief in his eyes; on the contrary, his eyes were full of gloom.
