Wizarding Age: I can analyze everything

Chapter 81 How many spells is this already?

Everything that happened tonight shocked Honan.

He had considered the possibility that Pei Ze might escape from Li Ke's clutches, so he personally went to the scene and lay in ambush, ready to personally intercept and kill Pei Ze should Li Ke fail.

But he never expected that Pei Ze would actually kill Li Ke!

The strength he displayed during that time was several times greater than the images he saw in the recording ring!

It's hard to believe this is a sixteen-year-old boy.

Genius, monster, prodigy.

Huo Nan didn't know how to describe Pei Ze. The only thing he understood was that he had to kill Pei Ze now.

Otherwise, once Pei Ze grows up, even the Pei family might not be able to protect him.

Faced with Huo Nan's cold, murderous words, Pei Ze simply smiled wryly.

Huo Nan wanted to kill him, and he also wanted to kill Huo Nan.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be a pleasant thing to always have someone backstabbing him.

Huo Nan just happened to hand over his weakness this time, so no one will say anything if we kill him now.

Seemingly sensing Pei Ze's thoughts, Huo Nan's eyes flashed, and he sneered, "You are indeed very powerful, so powerful that it surprises me. However, in your current state of great exhaustion, you are no match for me at all."

Pei Ze chuckled and said, "No need for testing. You'll find out if you're a match for me once you try."

As soon as he finished speaking, the crows that were flying all around him let out a cacophony of cries and swarmed towards Huo Nanfei.

Huo Nan snorted coldly, and a red light surged around him, quickly enveloping his body and sword. He met the attack with a stern expression.

The battle broke out in an instant, and the middle of the street was transformed into a battlefield once again.

Not far away, Su Ya's face showed barely concealed anxiety.

"This is bad. Lord Pei Ze has just gone through a fierce battle and is greatly exhausted. He is probably no match for Huo Nan."

Peng Yan frowned and said in a deep voice, "Not necessarily. Aren't there still over a thousand crows left? They were able to deal with that mad drinker just now, so why can't they deal with Huo Nan?"

Suya shook her head and said worriedly, "They're different. That Drunkard uses earth elemental power and is better at defense, so he's at a disadvantage against the crow flock. But Huo Nan uses fire elemental power, which has extremely high explosive power and is the best counter to the crow flock, a large but weak magical pet derivative."

As if to verify Su Ya's words, Huo Nan, who was in the distance, suddenly swung his sword and unleashed a large area of ​​scorching flames, instantly burning and killing nearly a hundred mist crows.

Suddenly, a clear blank space appeared in the dense flock of crows.

Seeing this, Peng Yan was stunned, and a sense of unease immediately appeared on his face.

"Then, what should we do?"

"We can only wait for reinforcements to arrive."

Su Ya looked in the direction of the city guard's garrison, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.

The battle here has been going on for nearly half an hour, and it's quite noisy. Logically, the city guards should have noticed it by now.

But even now, not a single soldier has been seen.

Are the city guards all blind?

Or perhaps, Huo Nan did something wrong?

Suya thought about it more and more and it seemed very possible. Huo Nan was capable of colluding with heretics in order to kill Lord Pei Ze, so it was only natural that he would tamper with the patrol duty tonight.

However, this made the hope of reinforcements arriving to help a pipe dream.

This place is not close to the city guard's garrison, and even if they rush to the garrison to provide assistance now, it will most likely be too late.

No matter how you look at it, the current situation seems like a dead end for them.

boom!

Rolling flames swept across the void, instantly burning and annihilating the mist crows in their wake.

The flock of crows, which originally numbered 1,200 to 1,300, has now dwindled to just over 900, less than 1,000.

Seeing this, Pei Ze shook his head secretly.

The power of fire, an element with explosive power, is indeed very effective against crows.

In a flash, he decisively issued a new instruction.

Suddenly, the flock of crows retreated, flying towards Pei Ze like a torrent, crowding together and quickly disappearing into the misty feather on his shoulder.

As the mist crow merged with it, the mist feather's body expanded rapidly as if it were being inflated, quickly transforming from a small creature into a behemoth over two meters tall.

Under the cover of darkness, Wu Yu's dark body appeared even more profound, like a black hole that seemed to absorb all the surrounding light.

Seeing the drastically changed appearance of Wu Yu, Huo Nan became secretly very wary, but he didn't show it on his face. Instead, he deliberately mocked, "A futile struggle. No matter how many tricks you come up with, you can't change the outcome."

Pei Ze knew that Huo Nan was trying to shake his resolve, so he ignored these words, slowly took out a bottle of Boiling Blood Potion and swallowed it. Then he brandished his longsword and looked sharply at Huo Nan.

Seeing this, Huo Nan was first stunned, then laughed in anger.

What an arrogant brat!

A level three wizard apprentice actually intends to fight him in close combat?

Who gave him the guts?

Huo Nan sneered and suddenly leaped forward, charging towards Pei Ze with the ferocity of a tiger or leopard hunting its prey.

Since this kid is so eager to die, I'll grant him his wish!

Facing the murderous enemy, Pei Ze remained calm and composed. With a flash, he swung his sword to meet the attack.

The two collided violently in the middle of the street like high-speed trains, creating an invisible, violent shockwave.

Immediately following, a burst of sparks erupted, and a sharp sword light burst forth, tearing through the night.

The battle quickly escalated to a fever pitch from the very beginning.

Once they actually started fighting, Huo Nan quickly realized something was wrong.

Pei Ze's physical abilities were unexpectedly strong, almost reaching the level of a peak Grand Knight!

Even if part of it was due to the boost from the potion, his original physique was at least at the level of a high-ranking Grand Knight!

How is this possible?!

Huo Nan was utterly shocked.

Not only did he advance to the third-level wizard apprentice at the age of sixteen, but he also cultivated his breathing technique to the level of a high-level grand knight. Is this kid a monster?

This talent is just too incredible!

Huo Nan was both shocked and incredulous, which strengthened his resolve to eliminate Pei Ze.

Sensing the sudden surge of killing intent in Huo Nan's eyes, Pei Ze sneered inwardly, ignoring Huo Nan's attack and instead slashing at the latter's neck with his sword.

Trading injury for injury?

Huo Nan's gaze turned cold. With the protection of elemental power, he was not afraid of Pei Ze's attack at all.

On the contrary, this kid, relying on the protection of magical items and defensive spells, dared to fight him head-on. Did he really think that his elemental power was something to be trifled with?

Without hesitation, Huo Nan poured more elemental power into his weapon and then slashed fiercely at Pei Ze.

Suddenly, a muffled "pop" sound, like a bubble bursting, was heard, and the protective ring on Pei Ze's finger instantly dimmed, its protective force field disintegrating.

Then came another series of cracking sounds, and the mage's armor was shattered and torn apart by the elemental power.

Huo Nan grinned maliciously, but the hard feel of the blade made his smile freeze the next second.

Another layer of mage armor?

Why are there still more?

Huo Nan was stunned. Before he could react, he saw Pei Ze slightly raise his finger, and twenty magic missiles instantly appeared, striking him almost simultaneously with the sword blade.

At the same time, a sharp gust of wind came from behind him, and Wu Yu raised his claws and viciously grabbed at his back.

In the blink of an eye, Huo Nan found himself in a predicament where he was attacked from both sides.

His expression changed drastically, and he suddenly shouted. The red light on his body suddenly intensified, transforming into a raging inferno that annihilated the magic missiles and sent Pei Ze and Wu Yu flying.

However, after the flames subsided, Huo Nan's face turned slightly pale, clearly indicating that this move had taken a toll on his health.

laugh!

A hazy beam of light shot out like an arrow and struck Huo Nan in the chest. He felt his body sink and his whole body weaken.

Weakening rays!

"Damn it!"

Huo Nan cursed under his breath and charged at Pei Ze again.

On the other side, Su Ya and Peng Yan were already dumbfounded.

"Lord Pei Ze's close combat skills are so formidable." Peng Yan murmured in shock.

Su Ya's face was also full of surprise.

In previous battles, they had never seen Pei Ze fight in close combat, so they subconsciously assumed that Pei Ze's physique was not high, at most at the level of a knight.

But who would have thought that Pei Ze's close combat skills were not only not weak, but even stronger than the two of them!

This is absolutely unbelievable!

Su Ya and Peng Yan were immediately devastated.

It's one thing to be lenient in other aspects, but even in his best area of ​​close combat, he can't compare to Pei Ze. This is just too discouraging.

Has the gap between people become this large?

"Suddenly I feel like the two of us are pretty useless," Peng Yan muttered.

Su Ya's lips twitched slightly, but she couldn't utter a rebuttal.

As the battle progressed, Huo Nan gradually discovered the strangeness about Pei Ze.

No matter how many layers of the latter's mage armor he shattered, he could never harm the opponent.

On one occasion, he even used a combat technique to break through three layers of mage armor in one go, but was ultimately stopped by the fourth layer of mage armor.

"Just how many layers of mage armor does this guy have?"

Huo Nan was so angry he almost vomited blood.

When did mage armor start stacking?

This isn't a shield spell!

Despite his shock and anger, Huo Nan was helpless.

Faced with Pei Ze's defenses, which were as thick as a tortoise shell, he had no way to attack.

He was even overwhelmed and in a sorry state by Pei Ze, who had completely abandoned his defense and was focused on attacking him head-on.

After all, the power of fire element is more offensive and far inferior to the power of earth element in terms of defense. Faced with the fierce siege of Pei Ze and Wu Yu, Huo Nan really felt the strain.

"This kid had a fierce battle with Rick earlier, which drained his mental energy considerably. Now he's been casting spells continuously, so his mental energy is probably almost depleted. If we just hold on a little longer, once his mental energy is completely depleted, dealing with him will be a piece of cake!"

Huo Nan could only console himself with this thought.

Unbeknownst to him, the improved spell that Pei Ze used consumed less than half the mental energy of the original spell, amounting to only about 1 point of mental energy.

In his previous battle with Li Ke, Pei Ze only consumed a little over thirty points of mental energy.

The remaining mental energy is enough to cast 140 to 150 spells, more than enough to sustain a high-intensity battle.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The deafening roar of exploding magical missiles echoed through the streets and above the city.

Firelight and sword light flashed alternately, intertwining and dancing together.

The intense battle kept Su Ya and Peng Yan on edge, so much so that they didn't even realize the sweat streaming down their faces.

As time passed, a mixture of confusion and oddity gradually appeared on their faces.

Originally, they, like Huo Nan, thought that given the frequency with which Pei Ze cast spells, he probably wouldn't be able to hold on for long.

After all, as far as they knew, an ordinary level three wizard apprentice could only cast twenty or thirty spells at most after exhausting all his mental energy.

But Pei Ze has probably cast seventy or eighty spells since then.

This doesn't even include the number of times the mage's armor was cast due to distance.

If you really count them, there are probably over a hundred!

Isn't this mental energy a bit too much?

Su Ya and Peng Yan suddenly felt that their previous worries seemed to have been in vain.

"Damn it! What's wrong with this kid?"

Huo Nan is going crazy.

Does this kid in front of me have no upper limit to his mental strength?

How many spells have I used already? My mental energy is still not used up?

"No, if this continues, I'll be dragged to my death!"

Huo Nan's current situation is the same as Li Ke's a moment ago. His elemental power is almost depleted. On the other hand, Pei Ze's eyes are still shining brightly, showing no signs of exhaustion of his spiritual power.

The situation had now reversed, and Huo Nan was now filled with anxiety.

If this continues, he might be worn down to death by Pei Ze.

Those who can reach the level of legendary knights are not indecisive. Huo Nan quickly made up his mind, his eyes suddenly hardened, and he swung his sword to force back the mist feather that attacked from the side, and quickly retreated to create distance.

He retreated more than ten meters before stopping, glaring at Pei Ze with a vicious look, and then suddenly shouted angrily.

The next second, blazing red flames spewed from his mouth, nose, and every pore on his body.

Flames rose fiercely, burning and surging to form a giant wolf over three meters tall, which pounced on Pei Ze like a raging wave.

Danger!

A sudden alarm bell rang in Pei Ze's mind, and without hesitation, he released the magic missile he had prepared beforehand, then whispered:

"Xiao Ai".

With a flash of light, a small triangular shield appeared out of thin air, emitting a hazy glow and blocking his way.

Immediately following behind, the mist feather flew back like an arrow, transforming into a giant shield that stood between him and the living shield.

By the time he finished doing all this, the giant fiery wolf had already attacked him.

Twenty spell missiles struck the Flame Wolf, vanishing like stones thrown into water with a soft "poof," leaving only wisps of smoke behind.

The Flame Wolf didn't even hesitate for a moment before crashing into the living shield like a high-speed train!

boom!

The activated shield held for only a moment before shattering with a crash.

The halo dissipated, and the shield fell to the ground.

The blazing flames then crashed into the black shield formed from the mist behind them.

Chi Chi Chi!

It sounded like flesh and blood being thrown into sulfuric acid.

The black mist and flames intertwined, annihilating and canceling each other out.

Both the Black Shield and the Flame Wolf were shrinking rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In less than a breath's time, the black shield, which was originally two meters tall, shrank by 99 percent and eventually turned into a wisp of black mist that flew back to Pei Ze's wrist.

The giant flame wolf, now two-thirds smaller, continued its unstoppable advance and crashed into Pei Ze.

Huo Nan's eyes widened, his gaze fixed on the scene not far away.

When he saw the Flame Giant Wolf break through both the Activated Shield and the Black Shield defenses in succession, a look of joy involuntarily appeared on his face.

Click!Click!

Sounds like shattering crystal rang out one after another.

Under the scorching heat of the giant fiery wolf, Pei Ze's body surface flashed with light.

Each flash meant a layer of mage armor shattered, the Flame Wolf shrank in size, and the joy on Huo Nan's face diminished accordingly.

Gradually, his expression changed from joy and excitement to horror and disbelief, and finally only despair remained.

After the light flashed twenty-six times in succession, the Flaming Giant Wolf finally exhausted its power and slowly dissipated into the air.

Pei Ze remained standing unharmed, his body enveloped in a faint glow.
