After whispering a few instructions, Aiden wanted to leave. However, when he looked towards the gate, he was shocked to find that several wizards in red robes had blocked all the entrances and exits.

"Before we officially pray to the Elemental Spirits, there is one more thing we need to solve!" The wizard on the high platform also stopped his speech and suddenly said in a cold voice. "Several rats sent by the Council have sneaked into our manor. They are the enemies of the Elemental Spirits and followers of Doomsday. They will destroy everything we have worked so hard to build..."

Hearing this, all the wizards in the hall turned their heads and looked around, shouting continuously.

"Where are those damn guys?"

"I will tear them apart!" "For the elemental spirits!"

Everyone present was very excited, but they couldn't find where the enemy was, and they even began to doubt and attack each other.

Aiden, hiding in the shadows, was sweating profusely. He didn't dare to confirm whether the other party had really seen through his concealment skills or was bluffing him to lure them out.

There are at least three hundred wizards in this hall. There is no chance of winning a head-on confrontation with them. Aiden looked around and stared towards the window.

At this moment, the wizard in a red robe on the platform took out a strange statue from his arms. It was black all over, but the surface emitted a blue glow. Then the light became brighter and brighter, and soon covered the entire hall.

Oops!

Aiden suddenly saw the wizard sitting on the high platform casting his eyes towards his hiding place. He thought something was not good and immediately jumped out from his hiding place, broke away from the shadows, and quickly rushed to the nearest windowsill.

The colleague at the side activated the magic that had been ready for a long time.

Three-ring spell——【Flame Torrent!】

Scorching tongues of fire ignited in the hall and rolled straight towards the wizards of the Doomsday Cult, but were quickly blocked by a rising magic barrier.

The next moment, the annoyed wizards launched a counterattack, using dozens of ice and fire spells to tear the sheriff who stayed behind to cover their retreat into pieces almost instantly.

Aiden's heart was bleeding as he listened to the explosions, roars and screams coming from behind, but he did not stop at all and his steps became even faster. He could no longer care about anything else. The most important thing now was to escape successfully and spread the news.

Thanks to the short time gained by his colleagues' sacrifice, he was only two or three meters away from the nearest windowsill.

However, at this moment, the red-robed wizard who had been watching took action!

Aiden's heart was beating violently and he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. He could clearly feel a powerful aura locking onto him.

"Do you think you can get away?"

"In front of the great elemental spirit, the shadow cannot protect you!"

The red-robed man stretched out his right hand, and in an instant, a giant fire whip more than ten meters long appeared out of thin air and hit Aiden's back fiercely.

Bang! With a muffled sound, the [Mage Shield] on his body was instantly broken, and Aiden felt as if he was struck by lightning. He felt as if his spine was broken in two. He was forced to break away from the shadow state and fell to the ground with his body tumbling.

With a casual strike, he broke his own shadow and shattered the [Mage Shield], which means that the opponent is most likely a great wizard!

However, in the entire wizarding land, there are only more than thirty great wizards in total, and he had seen each of them, but none of them had the same name as the other!

Aiden knew that there was no hope of escaping, so he stopped wasting his time and said viciously, "You crazy people, you are courting death! Even if you kill me now, the parliament will soon notice it. There is no need to wait until the end of the world. Lord August will soon send you all to meet your elemental spirits!"

"Really?" A hint of sarcasm and ridicule appeared on the red-robed wizard's face, and then he turned to look at the witch who had refuted him before, and said playfully, "Xia, you finish him off."

The witch named Xia was trembling and kept trying to retreat, but she obviously didn't have the courage to do so. However, the wizards beside her pushed her forward.

Aiden glanced at the witch who walked tremblingly towards him, and a trace of anger ignited in his heart.

These days, when he was investigating the Doomsday Sect, he also collected a lot of information about its members. This witch named Xia should be just an apprentice who had just joined. He didn't expect that the other party would be so ruthless and was prepared to use her own life as a token of surrender to coerce others.

Aiden thought so, but the next moment there was only horror on his face.

The red-robed wizard held up the strange statue and shouted evilly.

"Feel the power bestowed upon you by the elemental spirits!"

A red light flashed between the statue's pupils, and then enveloped the hesitant Xiya.

The witch suddenly felt as if something was forced into her mind, and then the magic power in her body became restless and was quickly drained.

Just one second later, a ball of flame rose from her palm and condensed into a fireball the size of a human head. Xia could even feel the violent power contained within.

This is not the first-level magic Fireball, but the more powerful second-level magic - Pyroblast!

Even though the pyrotechnics she released was a size smaller than normal, Xia didn't care and was completely immersed in a state of excitement.

As an apprentice, she actually used such a powerful second-ring magic. It was obvious that this was the power bestowed upon her by the great elemental spirits.

"Praise the great elemental spirit!" Xia shouted excitedly. There was no more confusion in her heart. Without hesitation, she threw the violent fireball in her hand at the frightened Aiden.

"Praise the great elemental spirits!" Amid the explosions, broken bodies, and flames, the wizards in the hall also echoed enthusiastically, believing that the end of the world was approaching.

They must force all wizards to give up the idea of ​​enslaving elements. As long as they correct this mistake and pray to the great elemental spirit for atonement, everyone will gain His approval and be granted even greater power! The wizard in the red robe watched all this with great satisfaction. The statue in his hand had closed its eyes and seemed to be chewing something in its mouth.

"Let's begin today's prayer ceremony!"
