The Great Detective of Gensokyo, but surrounded by Shura Field!

Patchouli calmly replied, "Because if you drink too much, you'll feel full."

"???"

Don't explain such a matter of course in a serious manner!

"Anyway, show me your magic."

"I will use combat to analyze your magic power and find out the cause of your physical abnormality."

Patchouli's body slowly floated up.

Around her, several philosopher's stones of different colors slowly floated out.

These philosopher's stones, which have many functions, outline a huge magic circle in an extremely clever way, covering the entire library.

Thanks to this, even extremely powerful means of attack could not destroy the scene of the Great Library.

"Then I won't be polite."

Chu Bai picked up a bottle of magic medicine, but after thinking about it, he put it back with some heartache.

This secret medicine looks very valuable. Even if it belongs to someone else, you should try to save as much as possible on it.

……

……

The two of them slowly floated into the air and stood facing each other.

The little devil brought a chair, took a Coke and popcorn and prepared to watch the show.

Looking at Chu Bai, who exuded a solemn atmosphere, Patchouli nodded with satisfaction:

"What an exceptional magician! Even under my pressure, he remained unmoved and flew steadily."

"Humph, I don't feel any pressure from you."

Chu Bai smiled proudly, but suddenly his expression changed:

"Wait, flying? I don't think I can fly yet?"

At the same time this idea came up.

His feet suddenly felt empty and he fell down screaming.

Patchouli almost choked on her saliva, and the little devil below directly sprayed out the Coke.

So you can't fly!

Then how did you float in the air just now?

Did he forget that he couldn't fly and then succeed in flying? That's an incredible ability!

"Ahem, there was a little accident..."

Chu Bai climbed up with a dusty face, while Patchouli closed her eyes:

"It really doesn't bear praise at all."

"If your magic level is as unreliable as your personality, then I won't be able to find out anything no matter what. Your magic source is too weak to withstand the repair process."

"I'm not weak! After all, I'm the most reliable man in Gensokyo, the one who dares to participate in the preliminaries of the house fighting competition alone!"

Chu Bai narrowed his eyes and raised his hand:

"Watch out, Patchy, I'm about to attack!"

"Earth curse - "Rock Spike Pillar"! "

Rumble!

Huge spikes rose from the ground and shot towards Patchouli in the air.

Patchouli's expression remained unchanged, she just gently hooked her finger:

"Earth Talisman—"Lazy Stone Tower"."

The same earth-attribute magic, the same trajectory of action.

The two spells collided fiercely, causing a huge roar in the air.

This was the initial testing phase, and neither of them seemed to have the upper hand.

But the real showdown has just begun!

"Ice Curse—"Ice Crystal Explosion"!"

"Fire Spell—"Hands of Fire"!"

Chu Bai gathered his magic power again.

The ice crystals, emitting a cold aura, flew towards Patchouli.

At the same time, billowing flames burst out from Chu Bai's left hand, trying to burn Patchouli.

Seeing this, Patchouli nodded slightly.

This is a skill of multitasking. Once you master this skill, you can release two different spells with both hands at the same time.

It is quite rare for Chu Bai to master such skills at his age.

"It's a pity that I can also do two things at once, so you won't be able to take advantage of me."

"Water Talisman—"Water Princess."

"Golden Talisman - 'Silver Dragon'."

The two spells were launched later but arrived first, and they collided with Chu Bai's attack in the air, creating fierce sparks.

In order to maintain the existence of the existing magic, both of them need to distract themselves to control it and cannot release more spells at the same time in a short period of time.

...Under normal circumstances, this is how it should be.

But Chu Bai raised his lips slightly:

"Who said I was using the technique of multitasking?"

"Varied……!"

Patchouli's eyes suddenly narrowed.

Just behind her, a sharp sound of breaking through the air suddenly rang out.

"Though I am young, my arrows are sharp!"

"Wind Spell—"Wind Arrow"!"

A turquoise magic arrow flew towards them.

Although the target was the shoulder, with Patchouli's physique, she would definitely lose most of her combat effectiveness if she was shot so hard.

Of course, what shocked her the most was not Chu Bai's sneak attack technique that was as natural as breathing.

But he has actually learned triple casting!

This is an extremely advanced spell, and the difficulty is definitely not as simple as one-level spell casting + two-level spell casting!

Even the current Patchouli must rely on at least one philosopher's stone to successfully perform triple casting.

In other words, in terms of spellcasting skills alone, Chu Bai has actually surpassed her level?!

After dodging the sneak attack, Patchouli looked at Chu Bai below with complicated eyes.

It seems that the little boy who didn't even know magic back then... has become a powerful magician who must be taken seriously.

Chapter 43 I am a pure little devil, I didn’t see anything!

"I didn't expect that at such a young age, you've already mastered the technique of triple casting."

Patchouli was suspended in the air, looking at Chu Bai with a hint of surprise in her eyes:

"You should be 24 years old this year, right?"

"Sodayo."

"...That's a shame. If your magical essence was still intact, you would definitely be as strong as my Great Magician."

Patchouli's tone was quite regretful.

Chu Bai did not complain about the current situation, but looked at her expectantly:

"So, during the fight just now, did you notice anything unusual?"

Patchouli shook her head:

"No, the battle just now was not intense, and your magic source is still stable."

"For a situation like yours where your origin is damaged, only in a truly intense battle will your body, stimulated by the crisis, subconsciously reveal its circuits and origin's aura. Only then can I conduct a detailed investigation."

"So don't hold back anymore. Just treat this as a real fight. When I succeed in making some inroads, I'll warn you to stop."

"no problem."

Chu Bai rubbed his hands together and said, "Then I have to increase my strength, right?"

"Come on, attack me hard and pour out all your firepower."

After getting Patchouli's consent, Chu Bai no longer saved his magic power.

After knocking down a bottle of potion, he half-knelt down and put his hands on the floor.

A magic circle symbolizing the light of the seven stars appeared around him. Chu Bai's lips trembled slightly and he began to chant a complicated spell.

"Higher magic?"

Patchouli understood instantly that Chu Bai must be preparing a big move.

So she also stretched out her hand in cooperation, and the Seven Stars Formation also appeared beside her.

The temperature in the room gradually began to rise, and the light of the magic circle became increasingly dazzling.

Until one moment, as if cowboys in the West were dueling with guns, the two of them simultaneously swung out the magic in their hands!

"Fire and Earth Curse - "The Kingdom of Fire""

"Fire-Gold Talisman——"St. Elmo's Pillar of Fire""

Magic array within magic array.

Flame against flame.

Two higher-level magics were released at the same time, and the entire library began to shake violently.

Chu Bai only felt his feet suddenly become hot, and then a pillar of fire shot up into the sky.

He fought back, but these pillars of fire seemed to have spirits and could always block his landing point in advance.

Until the end, all of Chu Bai's escape routes were blocked by the flames. And these pillars of fire that shot up into the sky suddenly gathered together, merging into a raging flame that engulfed Chu Bai.

On the other hand, Patchouli was not having an easy time either.

Although she could fly, Chu Bai's attacks happened to come from all directions.

With her as the center, it seemed that erupting magma and hot, solid rocks could appear at any time in every corner.

Her body flew back and forth, avoiding these attacks in a somewhat hasty manner. However, Chu Bai's magic control was no less powerful than hers, and the attacks from the magma and boulders were almost like a shadow following her.

Fortunately, she had the omnipotent Philosopher's Stone. Under the guidance of magic, the only remaining Philosopher's Stone glowed slightly, forming a transparent shield around Patchouli, blocking all the attacks of fire and rock.

At the same time, the St. Elmo's Pillar of Fire gradually dissipated, and the smoke and dust inside scattered, making it difficult to see Bai's figure clearly.

"Humph, the law of smoke without injury can't fool me."

Under the protection of the Philosopher's Stone, Patchouli has completely transformed into a mobile turret.

Colorful spell cards shattered one after another, and all kinds of magic were thrown into the smoke.

It wasn't until the smoke and dust gradually dispersed that Patchouli finally saw the figure inside.

Chu Bai was lying on the ground, covered in blood, with his left index finger pointing forward.

"!!!"

Patchouli panicked immediately. She didn't intend to injure Chu Bai so badly.
