The tenth flash!
Alfonso's figure suddenly appeared in an area near the edge of the city wall in the northeast corner of the inner city.
The terrain here is slightly higher and has not yet been completely swallowed by the death vortex in the center, but the turbid sea water has already flooded over the roof, with a large amount of debris and frozen corpses floating on it.
Just when Alfonso's figure solidified!
The water beneath his feet suddenly exploded!
What exploded from the bottom up was not a huge wave, but countless ice thorns with sharp edges like knives that were instantly condensed from the cold air!
They were like a wildly growing jungle of death, carrying biting malice and soul-freezing coldness, instantly engulfing Alfonso's figure!
At the same time, a blurry figure, like an ink drop dissolving into the water, quickly escaped from behind a pile of frozen corpses under the exploded water surface, trying to merge into the chaotic space fluctuations again!
"snort."
A cold snort came as if from the high heaven.
In the center of the ice thorn jungle that engulfed Alfonso, a pure and extremely bright white light suddenly lit up!
"boom--!!!"
Indescribable terrifying energy erupted!
Holy light!
The pure and domineering holy light with the will of absolute purification and annihilation!
It's like a sun exploding in a filthy quagmire!
The blazing white light instantly engulfed all the ice thorns, evaporating them into vapor!
Wherever the light reaches, the turbid sea water is forced to be pushed away and evaporated!
The floating debris and frozen corpses melted instantly like snowflakes thrown into a furnace!
Even the sea water below, which was mixed with resentment, was burned to form a huge hole with white steam coming out!
At the core of the light, Alfonso's figure was unharmed, his silver armor gleaming against the backdrop of the holy light.
The tip of the long sword in his hand was pointing at the blurry figure trying to escape!
And that figure is the real puppeteer.
He was also forced out from the edge of space stealth by this terrifying explosion of holy light!
Holes were burned in his black robe, revealing his pale skin underneath, which was gleaming with ice-blue magic runes. A tiny scorch mark also appeared on the pale mask covered with vine star tracks.
He was forced to stop, hovering on the edge of a huge puddle burned by the holy light, facing Alfonso in the air.
The magic circle's icy holy light and sticky dark magic created a brief tug-of-war in this corner where mud and death intertwined.
The air seemed to freeze, leaving only the sizzling sound of holy light burning the water vapor and the dull squeezing sound of the mirage contracting painfully in the distance.
The turbid sea water surged and roared at the edge, but could not invade this area purified by divine will.
Alfonso moved.
No fancy sword moves, only pure speed and power.
He took a step forward, and the void beneath his feet seemed to condense into a solid staircase of holy light. His entire body transformed into a blazing white meteor that tore through the rain curtain and pierced the puppeteer directly!
Wherever the long sword pointed, the space let out a sharp scream as if it could not bear the heavy burden. The light condensed at the tip of the sword was dazzling and blinding, as if it wanted to completely annihilate everything in front of it, including the space itself.
The pupils beneath the puppeteer's mask suddenly contracted.
He folded his hands rapidly in front of his chest, and complex ice-blue runes instantly lit up.
Huge diamond-shaped ice shields, each about a meter thick and with star-track patterns running along the edges, condensed out of thin air and stacked up in front of him. There were so many of them that they instantly formed a crystal clear fortress!
“BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM—!”
Alfonso's sword tip was like a red-hot steel drill piercing into the eternal black ice!
Each ice shield emitted a sharp cracking sound and filled with ice mist the moment it came into contact.
Ice chips danced wildly, energy surged, and the huge shock wave pushed the sea water below away again, forming a deeper pit.
The puppeteer's figure kept retreating under the impact of the ice shield exploding one after another. Every time he retreated, he stepped out fine ice cracks in the void, and it was obvious that he was under tremendous pressure.
However, each of Alfonso's attacks seemed to be aimed directly at the puppeteer.
The holy light dripping from the tip of the sword silently merged into the chaotic waters and ruins below every time it hit the ice shield and exploded.
These tiny spots of light seem to have life, swimming and connecting rapidly at the bottom of the turbid water and in the shadows of broken walls.
It outlines an extremely hidden yet huge grid of holy light runes.
They lurked and spread in the ruins and blood, as if weaving an invisible net, quietly covering the core area where the two men were fighting.
Under the cover of the Ice Shield Fortress, the puppeteer's figure flashed and refracted continuously in the space like a ghost.
Every flash leaves behind a vivid, cold ice crystal afterimage, and the real body appears in a corner that ordinary people can hardly predict.
He tried to increase the distance, cast more powerful ice magic to interfere with Alfonso's pursuit, or find a weak point in space to completely leave the battlefield.
But Alfonso's pursuit was like a leech, and the Holy Light Sword could always accurately lock onto the moment when his real body teleported, forcing him to continuously consume magic power for defense and space jumps.
“Sizzle!”
Another extreme distance chase!
At the moment when Alfonso's sword shattered the last ice shield, the tip of the sword narrowly missed the puppeteer's arm covered with ice-blue runes that was trying to block.
The biting power of Holy Light Judgment dimmed the runes instantly, and the black robe on the arm was torn, revealing the pale skin underneath that was covered with magical patterns and had an inhuman toughness.
The puppeteer groaned, using the force to quickly retreat, and spatial ripples once again spread behind him.
However, just when his figure was about to disappear——
"Buzz!"
Alfonso's figure seemed to have predicted his trajectory, and appeared in front of his retreat path at a faster speed!
This sword was as fast as a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue!
The holy light gathered at the tip of the sword was condensed to the extreme, turning into a golden thread as thin as a hair, but piercing through everything. It pierced the center of the puppeteer's mask's eyebrows at an incredible angle!
Too fast!
Too tricky!
The puppeteer's pupils trembled violently, and the guidance of the space jump was interrupted. In a hurry, he only had time to tilt his head back as hard as he could.
At the same time, he mobilized all his magic power to condense a final ice crystal barrier as thin as a cicada's wing in front of the mask.
“Ding—click!”
The ice crystal barrier shattered like fragile glass.
The golden thread of holy light that was condensed to the extreme could not be completely blocked after all!
"laugh!"
There was a slight sound, followed by a slight cracking sound as something hard was penetrated.
The pale mask covered with ice crystal vines and star track patterns had an extremely tiny hole pierced through it at the center of the eyebrows by the golden thread of holy light!
The mask didn't completely break, but spider-web-like cracks around the hole instantly spread to half of the mask.
Through the broken holes and spreading cracks.
Alfonso's iron-hard gaze caught a pair of bloodshot human eyes that suddenly shrank, filled with shock and anger, and a hint of imperceptible ancient fatigue.
At the edge of the hole, a small area of slightly loose and slightly wrinkled crow's feet was revealed!
