"you… "
The moment the runes were completed, a look of astonishment finally appeared on Grant's face. His eyes that illuminated the holy light dimmed instantly, and the three golden runes flying around him suddenly began to tremble.
Although Miles didn't understand what was going on, the method seemed to be effective, so he planned to stab Grant again. However, an invisible force burst out from Grant, like a terrible wave of air, knocking him away with a bang.
He could only fall back to the ground, roll a few times, and regain his balance.
Benjamin breathed a long sigh of relief outside the tornado.
"It seems...successful?"
The rune he told Miles represented "passage", and he had never found a way to use this rune before. At that moment, all the light elements were collected by Grant, and the opponent obviously used the power from the runes. Therefore, Benjamin came up with such a method in a short period of time.
Miles has a physique that makes the elements extremely disgusted. After research by the mages in the academy, they also discovered that there is some unknown energy in his blood. Therefore, a rune representing "passage", a kind of blood that is inherently incompatible with the elements, should be able to completely destroy Grant's charged ultimate move, right
Benjamin thought so, and at this moment, a large amount of light elements suddenly surged out from the wind, rushing in all directions like a reservoir leaking. The three characters around Grant disappeared completely, which also announced that his previous accumulation of energy had been interrupted.
"He looks very angry." The system described after the detection. "Don't go too far and draw things on people's faces. That's the punishment for losing in a card game."
Benjamin shrugged.
"I didn't draw it. Do you blame me?"
While he and the system were observing the situation, the other mages of the "Light Killer" were not idle either.
After the ultimate move was interrupted, the powerful isolation field around Grant finally disappeared. The four mages looked at each other and nodded. The wind blades and bats hidden in the strong wind suddenly emerged and pounced towards Grant!
Grant could only wipe the blood on his face in a hurry, waved his hand, and a holy light barrier formed around him. Dense attacks hit it, making the holy light flicker, but it never broke.
"If we can block it this way, there won't be any backlash..."
The four mages felt the resistance in the wind and couldn't help but show troubled expressions.
However, at this moment, a loud bang suddenly came from the tornado. As if something exploded, the elemental structure that maintained the tornado suddenly became a little unstable, and inexplicable magic waves faintly came from the wind.
Immediately afterwards, a figure wrapped in holy light broke out from the wind and rushed straight towards Benjamin!
"Hmph! Do you really think four people can trap me?"
At this moment, Grant had completely wiped away the blood on his face, regrouped, and was bathed in holy light. He didn't care about others, his expression was cold, as if he was determined to pay back the humiliation he had just received.
However, Benjamin was not defenseless.
Before Grant could rush out, he had already summoned dozens of huge water balloons, which merged into the shape of a fist. He controlled the fist and floated in front of him. As soon as Grant rushed over, he tried to punch the opponent in the face.
"Want to give it a try? Are your bones stronger, or is the barrier of Havenlight stronger?"
Benjamin said loudly with a sneer.
Grant frowned upon seeing this and suddenly started to slow down. The holy light surrounding him also became thicker, as if a solid wall had been built to block the compressed water fist.
Obviously, Benjamin's punch at Havenright left a lot of impression on him.
However…
With a bang, the fist hit the holy light and exploded violently. The sound was not small, but it was far inferior to the punch Benjamin punched in Havenright. At that moment, there was something wrong with the look on Grant's face.
He looked at Benjamin not far ahead.
"…bluffing?"
Benjamin smiled and said nothing, and flew away in a whoosh. And it was at this moment that three other powerful magic waves came over at some point.
"Although he is the current Pope, but... don't look down on us old people too little, right?"
Along with the old voice, the figures of three more mages suddenly appeared around Grant. Only this time, the people were replaced, and the three mages simultaneously cast high-level earth magic—Quicksand Hell. The thick earth elements were manipulated by them to form countless gravels, and even the sky in the nearby area seemed to become a little heavy. Invisibly, there was a force pressing on Grant's shoulders.
Before Grant could make any other move, the flying gravel rushed towards him, pressing on the holy light, and soon formed a huge sand ball. The sand ball was suspended in mid-air, and the three mages also took the opportunity to add force, concentrating all the pressure generated by the quicksand hell into the inside of the sand ball.
Bah... Bah... At that moment, bursts of heart-wrenching sounds came from inside the maracas.
"Right now, crush him to death in there!"
Seeing this, several other mages who had not yet taken action also cheered up and started chanting, preparing to join the three earth mages and kill Grant in one fell swoop.
Benjamin quickly stopped them.
"No, don't be impulsive. It's not time for you to take action yet."
The second he opened his mouth to stop him, the three mages who had trapped Grant looked shocked and looked at the sand ball that was constantly compressing inward, as if they had seen some monster.
Bah!
The sand ball suddenly opened a small hole, and a beam of holy light came out from inside, weak but hard to ignore.
Immediately afterwards, there was a series of noises. The sand ball, which may have weighed tens of tons, was like a light balloon. There were cracks constantly appearing, and more and more holy light was revealed from those large or small gaps.
About ten seconds later, with a bang, the sand ball exploded directly from the inside, and the flying gravel even directly trampled various buildings below. The mages had to stay far away to avoid being affected.
They looked towards the middle and could only see a ball of holy light that was shining so brightly that it was difficult to see.
"It's really difficult to deal with..."
Benjamin couldn't help but sigh secretly.
At that moment, he suddenly condensed countless ice mirrors and surrounded the group of holy light. The remaining two old mages who were good at water magic also took action at the same time, summoning a large blizzard, covering the entire sky near Grant.
Under the influence of the blizzard, the ice mirrors quickly froze together to form a huge cube of ice crystals. The holy light that was difficult to see directly was isolated inside, and after repeated reflections, it finally appeared less dazzling.
"Is it time to be trapped now?"
However, the explosion of holy light that followed immediately shook the cube apart and broke into pieces.
