"boom-"
With just one punch, the ice giant created by Maka had its ankles shattered and fell heavily to the ground; with another punch, its huge body immediately exploded inch by inch, and was reduced to the size of the scattered ground again. ice cubes.
Haierbo finally took action.
"Harry, knock on the door!"
"Now?"
The rumbling sound of the ice giant falling had just sounded outside. It sounded terrifying, but Harry obviously didn't know what it meant.
"Yes, right now."
Maka said again without looking back, and then she stopped attacking the living corpses outside. Instead, she suddenly lowered her arms and concentrated on sensing everything in the outside world.
When Harry saw this, he knew that the situation might have changed in some way that he didn't know about. Although he is still confused until now, Maka's words are absolute at this moment.
Immediately, he followed Maka's instructions, turned around, stretched out his hand, and tried to knock twice on the shimmering magic shield.
As Luna, who was in the mercury statue in the central square of Spiral Town, noticed Harry's familiar magic fluctuations, she immediately opened a gap where only one person could bend down to pass through.
"Maka, it's open."
Hearing Harry speak behind her, Maka immediately waved her backhand and pushed him into the back entrance.
"Go in as soon as it opens! Don't be surprised by anything you see. Just go inside and find a high place with a wide view to wait."
As soon as the words fell, Maka waved her hand again, inducing the magic power to tap the magic shield on the inside for Harry. After receiving the signal, Luna immediately closed the gap.
"Maka—"
…
What caused Maka to make such a decision was naturally Haierbo's latest trend.
Almost the next second after the outer magic shield closed the gap again, an extraordinarily powerful impact rushed from directly in front of the entrance to Spiral Town, crushing a large number of living corpses on the way, and hit Maka straight away. The ice wall built.
At the moment when the thick ice wall was unable to withstand the condensed impact and shattered, Maka had no choice but to temporarily avoid the sharp edge and dodge away from the place with extremely fast speed.
"boom!"
Although the powerful force weakened slightly after penetrating the ice wall, it still landed heavily on the magic shield in front of the entrance. At that moment, the violent tremors actually shook the passage spell at the entrance, causing large invisible cracks to appear around the brick wall.
Maka, who had just escaped in the blink of an eye, couldn't help but glance back at this moment - from among the cracks that gradually became unstable, the night view of Spiral Town was vaguely discernible.
Obviously, Spiral Town, like the Ministry of Magic and the Black Market in London, is also built underground and is only connected through a space passage.
Although it would be very difficult to create an entrance using ancient space magic, even if the entrance was destroyed, such a thing would probably not happen. But the passage in front of me is now made with modern magic spells that contain hidden dangers.
Just like the traceless stretching spell, the main role is naturally an incomplete space rule rune. The unstable spatial superposition formed by this actually has the possibility of collapse at any time.
In the same way, the unusually strong impact just now caused the passage spell on the brick wall to collapse.
It seems that all it takes is one more heavy blow like the one just now, and the entrance will be forcibly expanded and become a permanent and uncontrolled space passage.
"But fortunately, at least the outer magic shield is holding on for the time being."
The defensive strength of the magic text formation created by Hermione and the others is indeed impressive—although the original blueprint was provided by Maka, the credit for their careful carving of the stone slabs is indispensable.
"I can hold on for a while longer."
Maka muttered like this, the cooling rune flashed in front of him again, and the extremely cold air rose instantly. Wherever it passed, even the moisture in the air condensed into white frost, which was carried away by the army of living corpses rushing forward.
Although Haierbo took action himself, now was not the time to fight with him. Instead of spending a lot of magic power on an enemy that could not be hurt at all, it was better to reduce the number of mountains and seas of living corpses in front of him as much as possible.
So far, Maka obviously has no intention of confronting Haierbo head-on.
However, while he wanted to avoid the sharp edge, Haierbo seemed to want to get rid of his biggest trouble first.
As the cold current controlled by Maka swept through the army of zombies, a force stronger than the impact just now hit Maka from another direction.
As a black figure flashed past at high speed, Maka could only dodge away when the ice wall that had been penetrated by the hole suddenly shattered and collapsed.
"boom-"
With a loud noise, the ruins of the church, which had long become dilapidated, finally collapsed completely.
"McLean, just hiding...can't protect those 'burdens' behind you."
Haierbo, who was pressed under the bricks, said this and waved his hand violently. The huge force swept out a clear space around him.
And right next to Haierbo, there was only an irregular space passage and a part of the magic shield that penetrated from the other side of the entrance.
"Don't you have to come over and block this blow?"
Haierbo stretched out his left hand, shook his fist at the arc-shaped shield at the entrance, and looked at Maka's body not far away intentionally or unintentionally.
"If I die, wouldn't the result be the same?"
Maka stood among the ruins, surrounded by the cold current, staring at Helbo's every move with an expressionless face.
"Hmm, maybe!"
Haierbo couldn't help but chuckle when he heard what he said.
To be honest, if Maka wanted to hide, there was nothing he could do for a while. Apart from chasing after Maka until Maka reveals her flaws, there seems to be no other choice - just like the previous battle at Hogwarts.
After all, although there is indeed a big gap in strength between Maka and Haierbo, the latter is not powerful enough to kill Maka with one strike.
For Haierbo, the refugees in Spiral Town are not an obstacle. The person he wants to eliminate is always Maka himself.
"Then," Haierbo paused and then said calmly, "it depends on how long you can endure it."
At the same time as he said these words, his raised left fist finally swung out suddenly, hitting the magic shield with an explosion caused by the instantaneous compressed air.
