Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 740 Keli Unleashes Her Power

Neither Agu nor Keli expected that the chaos in Archist City would reach the town so quickly.

However, it was because of Ann's unique heightened perception of vibrations after being armed with spirit form that she foresaw the impending crisis and was able to pull Keli back in time.

As for Agu, well, he can only hope for the best.

"Why don't you take Miss Claire out of town first?" Agu took off in a disheveled state, but his thigh was still slightly scraped.

As a conscious being, that is, an enhanced form of the soul, this minor injury will naturally heal quickly.

However, Agu discovered a suspected contaminant toxin in the wound.

This toxin is not very toxic and has almost no effect on him, but it is surprisingly stubborn.

Agu was still dodging the branches that were sprouting from the ground and couldn't concentrate on expelling the toxins for the time being.

"Watch out, the branches are poisonous!"

He could only remind Ann to be careful to protect Ke Li.

Upon hearing Agu's reminder, An immediately tensed up.

The master entrusted Miss Claire to her, and although she didn't show it on the surface, she was determined in her heart not to let Claire suffer any harm.

Ann immediately transformed into her spider form, her eight spider legs resembling sharp scythes, ready to slice any approaching enemies into pieces.

However, while she was focused on protecting Keli, she suddenly felt a very peculiar magical power coming from behind her.

At the same time, Claire placed one hand on Ann's back, "Don't move."

Seeing the branch about to pierce her, Ann hesitated for only a moment before deciding to follow Ke Li's instructions and neither attack nor defend.

Just as the sharp, poisonous branches were about to pierce the two of them, Claire's long red hair suddenly fluttered up.

Then an unseen force bypassed An and Agu and met the branches that were attacking them.

The branches that were about to pierce An's body suddenly turned charred and crumbled into powder.

Not only the branches in front of An were cleared, but a 30-meter-diameter blank area was also cleared around Keli.

Both Ann and Agu, who was further away, were shocked by Keli's clearing maneuver.

Although they had seen attacks even more powerful than this, Cori was only a first-tier senior wizard!

They've actually managed to perform area-clearing spells that are usually only available to second-tier wizards.

Moreover, its attack effect is quite powerful!

Most importantly, they had never seen this kind of witchcraft before, and they couldn't even tell what kind of witchcraft it was!

"Can I move now?" An asked cautiously, looking at the broken branches scattered all over the ground as if struck by lightning.

"Okay!" Claire said with a hint of pride, withdrawing her hands and letting her flowing hair fall down. "This move of mine can't avoid moving targets, so once I say we can't move, you guys shouldn't move!"

Agu glanced at Keli with a complicated expression, but didn't ask any further questions.

He landed next to Claire and Anne and said to them, "Very good, now's the time for you two to leave here and head east."

"No," Claire stepped forward. "Thor is waiting for us to activate the outer auxiliary magic array. Even if you're prepared to stay, it's too dangerous for you to guard this place alone."

Agu hesitated for a moment.

Judging from the attack magic that Keli just used, she is indeed suitable to guard the auxiliary magic circle, but he is also worried that the enemy is too strong and that Keli might get hurt.

Based on Agu's intuition and his observations of the archaeological city of Archaesta, the attack by these branches was merely the beginning of a disaster.

Suddenly, a rustling sound came from all around the three of them.

They looked around warily and were surprised to see the caterpillar-shaped human head that had disappeared earlier emerging from a crack in the ground.

The heads of these caterpillars mostly belong to the elderly, with only a few being young.

They stared wide-eyed at Keli and her two companions, completely losing their human reason, like a pack of wild beasts.

The two caterpillars with human heads at the front were the same two that Claire had seen in the deserted town.

"These bugs, could they be the residents of this place turned into monsters?" Ann stamped her foot, looking annoyed. "The masters of Archaeologist City aren't just harassing the people in the city, they've turned ordinary people in the surrounding areas into monsters too. What are they trying to do?"

These human-shaped caterpillar-like creatures crawled toward the three of them, while Ke Li and the other two stood guard in front of the auxiliary magic circle, without retreating.

Just as the enemy was about to crawl into Klee's 30-meter attack range, Klee's red hair floated up again, and magic began to circulate, brewing a new round of witchcraft.

But before they even entered the 30-meter range, the caterpillar-like human heads on the other side suddenly raised their heads again and spat out strings of silk threads at them.

The silkworm threads didn't shoot at them, but instead sprayed onto the ground around the three of them.

It seems they are trying to encircle them with silk.

The silk threads were expelled faster and faster, and within a few breaths, a half-meter-high wall of silk threads had been formed.

"Are they trying to trap us here?"

An said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid it's more than that. It seems they're preparing to spin a cocoon and wrap us up inside."

She tore off a spider leg and threw it like a short spear.

The sharp tip sliced ​​through the air and "whoosh"ed as it pierced the wall of insect silk.

However, the seemingly fragile silk wall was not pierced, and the spider legs that Ann threw did not disappear; they were directly stuck to it.

Seeing this, Agu immediately cast a fireball spell.

Strangely, the raging fireball also stuck to the silken wall.

This completely defies common sense.

Because the opponent did not enter the 30-meter attack range, Keli was unable to release her magic.

She was slightly out of breath as she maintained the state of the spell waiting to be activated. "That's not silk in a purely physical sense."

Agu's expression turned serious. "What if we get stuck..."

Ann immediately turned to Claire and said, "Miss Claire, let's leave first."

"Okay!" Claire nodded immediately.

Be assertive when you need to be, and be timid when you need to be.

Keli wasn't conflicted at all.

Agu remained where he was. "You all go first. I'll wait here for my master's orders."

In any case, someone needs to activate the auxiliary magic circle that Thor set up here.

An wanted to exchange missions with Agu, but the latter remained standing closest to the insect silk, without retreating.

Time was of the essence, and Ann grabbed Ke Li's arm again, preparing to escape before the silkworm threads sealed them off.

Just as the two were about to fly out of the wall of insect silk, they suddenly noticed a dark green cloud above the caterpillars.

The green cloud descended to a point less than ten meters above the ground, and then water droplets began to fall from it, as if it were raining.

However, the rainwater was dark green and had a fishy, ​​rotten smell.

Rainwater dripped onto the caterpillars with human heads below, immediately corroding their bodies and creating large holes.

Soon, the human head-shaped caterpillars scattered on the ground were corroded into puddles of slime.

It looks disgusting, like vomit.

After these human-headed caterpillars were killed, Claire discovered that the silken walls around them had vanished in an instant.

Ann's spider legs appeared further away, stuck in the ground.

Agoo's fireball also scorched a patch of land nearby.

Keli took a breath, but was choked by the fishy smell and coughed repeatedly.

"Cough cough, it was an illusion. Cough cough, not just a simple illusion. If An and I had tried to fly out of the silk just now, we probably would have felt like we didn't fly out at all, and were stuck in the silk."

Agu nodded, "Yes, these insects have built an inescapable wall in our hearts."

"No wonder it can shoot so far and so fast!" An gritted his teeth. "They're using a mix of physical and mental attacks—that's so cunning!"

"Are you alright?"

The three of them were all complaining about the insect silk, and the person who saved them was not getting any words of thanks. No one was even discussing his venomous encounter.

He could only silently emerge from the shadows, caring for the three of them while silently wishing them well in his heart.

Finally, the person who had intervened showed up, and Agu immediately turned around, "Thank you, sir, for saving us just now..."

As soon as he uttered his first sentence, Agu's voice disappeared.

He looked at the unusual wizard's robes worn by the newcomer and his heart skipped a beat.

The wizard who just helped them... turns out to be from the Tribunal!
