Advent of the Archmage

Chapter 175: The first demon confrontation

Views:

After healing Enolie's injury, Link didn't rush out of the city, he rested in the blue hermit for a day.

During this period of time, he and Eleanor discussed some magic issues. Eleanor's profound attainments in occult magic benefited Link a lot, and Link's creative imagination in elemental magic also made Eleanor amazed.

On the second day, under the effect of the holy water, the wound on Enolie's neck was basically healed, and the magic energy in Link's body was also restored to its full state. At the same time, he refined about one kilogram of holy silver.

Of course, this time he used ordinary silver. Although the effect is not as good as Mithril, it still has a good restraint effect on the power of demons.

When everything was ready, Link found a carriage and went out of the city with Enolie.

On the carriage, Enollie suddenly remembered a detail: "In that village, the villagers called that woman Lisa, but that's not her real name. The demon called that woman Elena."

Link was shocked: "What, Elena?"

"It seems to be that the voice of the demon is very vague, or it may be Aina. It was a little far away at the time, and I couldn't hear it clearly." Enolie looked uncertain.

Link fell into deep thought, and after a while, he asked again: "Ellie (named by an acquaintance), do you still remember the specific day when you found that soul?"

"Of course I remember, my memory is not so bad, it was... 28 days ago, it was January... the 14th." Enolie mentioned a date that surprised Link.

January 14th was the date when he accidentally killed Elena.

"Then when did you find out, morning or afternoon, roughly what time?" Link asked urgently.

"It's about 3 o'clock in the afternoon."

Hearing this time, Link heaved a sigh of relief. It was basically certain that Elena's body was destroyed by him that day, but her soul escaped and was resurrected on a village woman. After being resurrected, he contacted the demon again... With the woman's method, although Link didn't know what method she used, he had reason to believe that the other party must have taken away the internal structure diagram of the magic tower, the hub of East Valley Magic Academy.

Then, everything can be explained, and the uneasiness that has always existed in Link's heart has also been confirmed.

"This woman is so ruthless, scheming, and cunning!" Link breathed out, even though he had experienced the night attack of Greenstone's Death Hand assassin and killed countless robbers with his own hands, but for Elena This kind of psychological attack method still feels cold in my heart.

It's really pitiful for Ailette, who was plotted to death by the other party, not to mention heartbroken, and almost gave up magic.

At this time, the carriage had already driven to the gate of the hot spring city, which would have caused innocent people, so the two of them settled the money and got out of the carriage when they were at the gate, and then walked all the way.

There were quite a lot of pedestrians passing by on the King's Avenue outside Hot Spring City. When the two walked on this avenue, the demon did not appear, but Enolie had already felt it.

"I've fought against it before, and I'm familiar with its soul breath. I can feel it hiding in the woods next to the road and staring at me." Enolie looked sideways at the woods beside the road frequently, and she already felt the danger. However, the confrontation three days ago still left her with lingering fears.

Link nodded. There was basically no pressure in his heart. The reason was very simple. The weakened version of the directional Pyroblast triggered by Enolie's phoenix bracelet could repel the demon, so in front of him, the righteous master, it was not a blow. It's that easy to retreat.

The two walked another five or six miles, and it was already past 10 in the morning. It was a pity that it was not sunny today, and the sky was covered by a thick layer of clouds, which could not let the sunlight weaken the demon's power.

At this time, even Link could clearly feel the abnormality, that feeling, as if someone was staring at him fiercely in the dark.

"It hardly hides its aura. Is this arrogance or does it not know it at all?" Enolie asked Link. Link could use holy silver to help her dispel the erosion of the demon's power. understand.

Link did know: "It's not that it's arrogant, and it's not that it doesn't know how to do it, but that it doesn't think it's necessary."

"How to say?" Enolie was a little puzzled.

Link explained: "The Abyss is a jungle world where the weak prey on the strong. If you want to survive there, you must show your minions as much as possible to make your opponents jealous... After it came to Ferroman, it might feel that everyone around It is very weak, so it doesn't know how to hide. I guess, it should now regard itself as the king of the jungle."

"Oh, so this is a barbarian!" Enolie found a vivid metaphor.

Link nodded in agreement. Of course, he still has more relevant knowledge in his mind. He knows that, in fact, demons can be divided into two categories, one is high-level demons, and the other is low-level demons.

Low-level demons have low intelligence, savage characters, follow the fighting instinct, and their strength is generally not very terrible. As for the high-level demons... let's put it this way, 99% of the demon protagonists in the horror legends in Ferroman's world are high-level demons!

Judging from the current situation, this one in Gwent Forest should be a low-level demon. Although his strength should not be underestimated, he should not be feared. A professional of the same level may not be able to beat him, but three of them are also possible. It can be surrounded and killed.

This demon still has some restraint. Link and Enolie have been walking on the King's Road. He seemed to be afraid of being discovered, so he just stared at the two, but he never made a move.

After walking for a while, when he reached a deserted place, Link said, "Come on, let's go into the woods."

There's no need to go around in circles, they're here to deal with the devil.

"Okay." Enolie nodded, subconsciously getting closer to Link, so that she could feel more at ease.

The two turned into the Gwent forest, and after walking about 500 meters, they heard the sound of dense footsteps and broken branches in the forest, and a very powerful creature was rushing towards them at an extremely fast speed. …

After all, it was a demon, and Link didn't dare to take it lightly. He immediately rushed forward a few steps, and when he reached the sparse forest, he said to Eleanor, "Activate the defensive shield!"

As soon as the words fell, the scorching edelweiss appeared on Link's body, and Enolie also activated the dragon bracelet, and a faint fiery red light and shadow appeared around their bodies.

At this moment, a tall black figure rushed out of the forest.

This figure is humanoid, more than 2 meters tall, the surface of the body is pitch black, and there is no cuticle, but a large number of strange dark green runes can be seen on the exposed skin. On the outside of his forearm, there are two flashing Cold light horny blades.

As soon as it rushed out, its blood-red eyes turned around between Link and Enolie, and then seemed to recognize Enolie, and quickly rushed towards her.

Enolie immediately stretched out her wrist and pointed at the devil, and shouted coquettishly, "Blast!"

This is her only magic that can pose a threat to this demon. Just hearing a loud 'boom', a fan-shaped stream of high-temperature flames rushed towards the demon.

However, this demon has obviously suffered once. This time, when he saw Enolie raising her arm, he immediately dodged to the side as if predicting.

The speed of this flash was extremely fast, just like teleportation, barely dodging Enoli's Pyroblast.

"This trick is ridiculous!" The demon made a vague voice, but his body was not slow at all. He kicked his legs and rushed towards Enolie quickly, while the blade on his forearm was horizontally in front of him.

This time, he won't play tricks on the other party like last time, and was attacked by her in the end. This time, he will directly reap the opponent's life.

It was too late for Enolie to trigger the second explosion, but she didn't dodge because she had defensive magic on her body, and because there was Link not far away.

This demon didn't seem to take the young-looking Link seriously at all, it's no wonder he didn't suffer!

"Roar!" The demon's speed was extremely fast, and he was less than ten meters away from Enolie in an instant. At this distance, he roared and then jumped up.

In his prediction, his blow would break through the opponent's magic shield, and then the arm blade would cut off the opponent's head, and no one would know the secret between it and the saint.

As for the young magician behind him, he would be hit by the other party's magic once or twice, but it didn't matter, his skin had strong magic resistance, so getting hit once or twice was no big deal, it just hurt a little.

But he obviously thought of it simply.

The moment he leaped up, a huge palm that exuded dim light and surrounded by circles of fiery red light suddenly caught up with his body from behind, held him in the air, and moved no.

It's Link's level 5 soul inscription magic: Vulcan's Hand.

"Roar!!!" As soon as the demon realized that he was trapped, he immediately exploded with power. A large amount of black aura appeared on his body.

The demon's fighting instinct is extremely strong, and his reaction speed is extremely fast. Link has no time to explode the high-temperature burning effect of Vulcan's hand.

"Awesome, this must have the power of the peak of level 5, and the demonic power in this guy is very abundant!" Link sighed secretly, almost endless, and the demonic power consumed by fighting against the magician is also a great horror for demons place.

Although the Vulcan's hand collapsed, the momentum of the demon's jump was not caught. He fell straight to the ground. As soon as he landed, he kicked his legs again, but instead of rushing forward, he dodged sideways, because Enolie's second Pyroblast has been released.

"Boom" The high-temperature flame rushed past the demon again with a slight difference, but still failed to cause him any harm.

It has to be said that this demon is indeed a bit powerful, if he hadn't burst out of the devil's battle aura immediately to get out of trouble, he would definitely be rushed by Pyroblast right now, and he would definitely burn his skin back.

Being able to escape the joint attack of Link and Enolie, this demon can be regarded as a top powerhouse on Ferroman Continent.

"Hey, just this little ability, it's ridiculous!" The demon pounced on Enolie again.

But it was almost a repeat of the situation just now, just as he threw himself out, that hateful giant hand appeared again, and caught him again, his body was held in the air again, and he grabbed a kitten with a giant It seemed that the demon could not move again.

"Scatter for me!" The demon exploded again, and was blocked twice in a row. He was furious, and his roar was extremely loud.

He successfully disintegrated the flame hand again, but this time it was different, but when his body fell from the sky, there was a sharp whistling sound behind him. It was a whistle, and it was not an ordinary whistle, but a holy silver whistle.

"Well, it's interesting!"

The demon sensed the threat behind him, and swung the upper arm blade at high speed, 'Dang! There was a crisp sound of "Dang" and "Dang". With his terrifying fighting instinct, this guy completely blocked Link's flying whistle, which was a terrifying reaction.

But the whistle has a back trick.

'boom! boom! boom! ', the whistle exploded, and for a moment, a large number of holy silver fragments, the flames almost enveloped the demon's body.

However, the whistle is only a level 1 magic after all, and the impact of the metal fragments after the explosion is very terrifying to the human race or dark elf warriors with insufficient defense, but it is nothing to the demons with extremely tough skin.

Under the impact of the metal fragments, the devil just felt a little pain. He looked down at his skin, and there were some shallow blood clots on it. Fa healed, and the demon power on the surface of his body seemed to be suppressed.

This is the restraining power of Holy Silver.

The demon was startled, feeling a little bad.

At this moment, Link's soul inscription was shocked again, and the Vulcan's hand, which had just been disintegrated by the demon, condensed in an instant, and held the demon's body for the third time.

This time, Link yelled at Enolie at the same time: "Ellie, Holy Silver Whistle!"

Enolie also knows how to whistle, and Link had given her the magic structure scroll when the magicians gathered.

Up until now, Enolie has no fear when she sees the demon being restrained by Link and is almost immobile. She has shown the true magic level of level 6 magic.

"Swish, whoosh, whoosh!" Holy silver whistles whizzed out from her wand. The speed was incomparable to Link's, but three whistles flew out in one second. Under her control, these whistles all flew towards the devil's body. The head and face exposed outside the hands of Vulcan.

"Bang bang bang" the whistle exploded, and the holy silver fragments shot out.

This weird attack just injured the demon. When facing it again, the demon felt a little apprehensive in his heart. With scruples, the reaction speed was slowed down for a moment, and Link's Vulcan hand could not be broken in time.

This gave Link a lore chance!

'Huh~~~' A slightly dull roar came from the hand of Vulcan. The hand of Vulcan, which was originally dimly radiant, was clenched tightly, and a dazzling blue-white light suddenly emitted from the palm of the hand. Its wild nature!

'Roar! ! ! 'The devil roared, and the color of pain appeared in the voice.

A large amount of demon fighting energy erupted around his body again. This power resisted the invasion of high temperature and protected his body, but this time, the Vulcan Hand had fully erupted, forming a huge implosion force. The imploding force offset the impact of the demon's fighting spirit.

Therefore, the devil failed to disintegrate it, but could only resist it.

However, although the power in his body is surging, there is still a limit after all. He has already disintegrated the Vulcan Hand twice in a row before, and now he uses the power in his body to directly fight against the completely erupted Vulcan Hand. The speed of the attack was astonishing, and the two sides were in a stalemate for about 10 seconds, and the power of the demon was finally exhausted.

The flames began to directly burn his body, bursts of blue smoke came out, and a scream of misery changed from the devil's throat.

The burning lasted for three seconds, and the demon was still screaming, but it had become so angry that Link canceled the Vulcan Hand.

With a 'plop', a body emitting green smoke fell to the ground. The demon's skin was completely burnt, exposing the flesh and blood inside, but he was still able to move. His body slowly squirmed on the ground, trying to escape. And the speed is accelerating at a speed visible to the naked eye.

His wounds are healing quickly.

It's extremely tenacious vitality, but it's a pity that it has no chance.

'Swish swish swish swish' Link sent out a fourth-level holy silver whistle, which pierced deep into the demon's arms and legs respectively, and then exploded, directly nailing the opponent's body to the ground.

For these four holy silver whistles, Link used the mithril version, which had a much stronger restraint effect, and the demon's defensive power was forced. These holy mithril whistles penetrated into the opponent's body, blended into the opponent's blood, and suppressed the opponent's strength.

This time, the devil was finally honest.
