Chapter 392 The Mastermind
"Who are you?" High Priest Gregory narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice.
He looked at Ryan and found that the other party's aura was only that of a Level 2 liquefied wizard, and he was slightly relieved.
Obviously, the situation in front of him was a little beyond his expectations.
The scene that he had expected, where the wizards stationed by the Bixiu Construction School and the Hellfire Rock Giants were both injured, did not appear.
Judging from the traces of the battle at the scene, the wizards of the school stationed this time were very powerful.
The other Black Flame monks were on alert and surrounded Ryan.
"You used this thing to attract the Hellfire Rock Giants to attack?"
Ryan did not answer the other party. He was sensitive and immediately noticed that there was a black-robed monk next to the black-robed man in the lead, holding a special box in his hand.
It seemed that this box had some kind of isolation effect, but Ryan could still feel the faint scorching radiation emitted from it.
At this time, the deputy sect leader Bradley led several of the sect's most elite sorcerers and appeared on the other side of the group of Black Flame monks. The movement of the huge obsidian war golem immediately diverted Gregory's attention.
"Oh? War golem and a wizard in the early stage of crystallization?"
"The construction sect, right? It's really interesting. I remember that you should be just a medium-sized sect? Is this your confidence?" Gregory saw this scene and said with a sneer on his
face. He finally understood why the young man in front of him could be so calm.
It turned out that a third-level crystallization wizard and a war golem were ambushed here.
But. This was quite funny in his opinion.
Maybe the other party hasn't figured out that even between third-level crystallization wizards, there is a big gap.
"Black Flame Cult!" Bradley exclaimed with an ugly face.
When he saw this group of black-robed people, he sensed their origins from their clothes and breath.
The other party was from the Black Flame Cult, one of the churches of the evil god. The black-robed man at the head had a deep aura and was obviously stronger than him.
This made Bradley feel like he was facing a great enemy.
You should know that in the previous battle in the imperial capital, there was a clone of the god worshipped by the Black Flame Cult, the hunting god Rune. Although the opponent was repelled, he still killed a dragon knight of the empire on the spot.
At this time, in a hidden room inside the camp.
The wizards of the school saw this scene and whispered in a low voice.
"It turns out that someone is really behind the scenes!"
"It turned out to be the guys from the Black Flame Cult!"
"I didn't expect the other party to find this secret place."
"Damn it, I thought Rachel died in an accident last time, but now it seems that she actually died indirectly at the hands of these people."
A male wizard whose lover died in the last attack glared at the Black Flame monks, as if he wanted to rush out and fight with them.
"Don't be impulsive! The other party is very strong, especially the leader, who seems to be a strong man in the third-level crystallization stage. It is estimated that even Lord Bradley may not be his opponent."
Hearing this, Alicia and Audrey looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
A wizard in the third-level crystallization stage?
Although he is a top figure in any school or church, he is still not good enough in front of Lord Ryan.
However, they realized that Ryan did not seem to want to expose his identity to everyone.
Therefore, the two women could only think about it in their hearts at this moment, but it was difficult to comfort them.
Paul on the side couldn't help but muttered:
"With that person here, you can rest assured!"
"Damn, I am the only one who has something to do!"
A wizard next to him seemed to hear Paul's mumbling and asked in surprise:
"Huh?"
"Paul, do you know this mysterious lord?"
The other party asked while thinking that he was indeed a direct descendant of the Duke of the Imperial Capital family, with a deep foundation.
Just as Paul was about to speak, he suddenly looked up and saw the two women looking at him. His face turned pale and he said to the wizard:
"I don't know him, but he should be a big shot arranged by the school. He must be able to deal with these black flame monks in front of us."
"Don't worry!"
Although the wizard didn't understand why Paul didn't know him, he was still so sure, but he nodded after listening.
After all, Paul wouldn't say anything nonsense about such things.
At this time, Paul, like a student who had made a mistake, took the initiative to come to the side of the two women, without any arrogance of a genius in the school, and whispered to the two women:
"Senior Alicia, Audrey, please talk to Lord Ryan. I really didn't mean it just now."
"After all, there were so many evil fire elements at once, and I instinctively thought that I couldn't beat them and had to run away."
Seeing Paul so humble, Audrey was fine, but Alicia felt very comfortable at the moment.
The center of the camp.
"If you voluntarily hand over the contents of the box and surrender, I may consider not killing you." Ryan waved his hand, interrupting Gregory's speech.
This naturally caused a group of Black Flame monks to glare at Ryan!
However, seeing Ryan's calm tone, Gregory somehow had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Who are you?" So, Gregory narrowed his eyes and asked again.
"You may not have heard of my name, but I am also an old friend of your Black Flame Cult." Seeing that the other party was so persistent in asking who he was, Ryan thought for a moment and said with a smile.
"Let me think about it."
"I sent the high priest Exter of your Munster Province and the high priest Erikson of your Marne Province back to the embrace of your hunting god."
"What! I know you, you are Ryan!" A Black Flame monk's eyes widened, looking at Ryan with an expression of seeing a ghost, trembling.
Because he had just been transferred from Marne Province, he naturally knew how his boss's boss died.
And Gregory's heart was as if ten thousand wildebeests had trampled over it!
What the hell!
He just came to lead the team to complete a small task of collecting Hellfire Crystals on a whim, but he actually met this guy Ryan.
As a high-ranking member of the church at the level of the high priest, he knew Ryan's record too well.
In addition to his own church, he also heard that the other party had a big conflict with the Sea God Church recently, and it was said that many well-known Sea God Church strongmen had been killed in succession.
This made Gregory look at Ryan in front of him, and for a while he was in a dilemma, and the whole person seemed to be sitting on wax!
Fighting is likely to lead to a loss.
Not fighting, the team will lose all momentum, and it will also lead to a loss.
But Gregory, after all, is a high-level high priest of the Black Flame Cult, a strong man at the level of crystallized wizard. After a slight hesitation, he inspired him to give it a try. He shouted angrily:
"Everyone, attack!"
With Gregory's order, the surrounding Black Flame monks raised their hands and released a black flame fireball towards Ryan.
In an instant, dense black flame fireballs bombarded Ryan like a storm.
"Boom boom boom!"
With the sound of dense explosions, a figure with an intact metallic luster suddenly jumped out from the dust!
It was Ryan who cast the second-level "Iron Armor".
In an instant, he came to a second-level sorcerer who had just come to his senses.
With a lightning-fast punch, the opponent had no time to cast more powerful witchcraft or other defensive measures, and could only instinctively release the innate witchcraft "Shadow Shield".
At the moment when a black shield appeared on his body, Ryan's heavy punch also hit him.
"Chi!"
The innate witchcraft 'Shadow Shield' was broken!
The opponent's black energy shield was instantly broken by Ryan like a bubble, and then his fist went straight in and hit the opponent's soft abdomen heavily!
"Bang!!"
Suddenly, a bulge the size of a sea bowl appeared on the back of this second-level sorcerer, and his eyes bulged like goldfish bubble eyes, almost falling out of his eye sockets. The whole person was like being hit by a wild bull, and flew out twenty or thirty meters in an instant!
"Bang!!!"
The opponent was directly embedded in the rock wall on one side of the Rage Flame Canyon.
At this moment, a huge crack radiating like a spider web appeared on the surface of the hard rock wall with the opponent's body as the center!
"Ugh~~~Ugh~~~"
The opponent vomited a few mouthfuls of blood, unable to say a word, and died after stammering twice!
The power of a punch is so terrifying!
A second-level sorcerer was killed directly!
But this was just the beginning.
Just as the hearts of the other Black Flame monks were falling into an ice cellar, Ryan's figure was like a silver lightning, moving back and forth in the field, pulling out one silver line after another.
Every time a silver line flashed, it represented the death of a Black Flame monk.
"Slowdown!"
"Weakness!"
"Imprisonment!"
A bunch of negative energy sorcery was bombarded at Ryan.
After all, everyone knew that if Ryan's speed was not restricted, they would not be able to resist it.
In addition to the innate sorcery and the bestowed sorcery, other powerful sorcery required time to chant the spell, but according to the opponent's super speed, a spell of two or three seconds could kill several people.
"Gravity field!"
With Greg's angry shout, a black-gray energy ball instantly radiated around him.
For a time, in an area with a diameter of about 40 to 50 meters, the gravity was greatly distorted, and everyone, including Ryan, including the obsidian war golem, etc., were affected.
And Ryan's speed also changed from being as fast as a rabbit to being as slow as a turtle.
This made the four or five Black Flame monks who survived by chance feel relieved and sighed secretly. Fortunately, the signature magic of their chief priest, "Gravity Field", was still very powerful.
The third-level earth magic "Gravity Field" is quite difficult to practice. It requires a lot of time and energy, and the most important thing is talent.
However, once it is successfully practiced, the power is quite amazing, and it can completely determine the outcome of a small local battle.
"Attack quickly!" Gregory shouted.
This made the surviving Black Flame monks react immediately, and they hurriedly began to chant spells and cast spells.
"Oh? Do you think I'm restricted?" Ryan thought for a moment and decided not to transform to solve the current gravity field.
"In that case, let's use witchcraft to solve it." Facing this scene, Ryan smiled slightly.
He quickly moved his lips a few times, and a low voice came out:
"Metal Transfiguration!"
"Cutting Net!"
"Sharpness!"
"Witchcraft Killer Move: Multiple Cutting Nets!"
Three bright silver giant nets suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Swish!"
As he stretched out his hand and waved forward, the three silver giant nets blasted towards the three gathered Black Flame Monks one after another!
Since the three Black Flame Monks were casting spells, if they stopped halfway at this moment, they would suffer a serious backlash from witchcraft. Therefore, facing Ryan's almost instantaneous witchcraft attack, they couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
But in this short moment of stunned, the three silver giant nets passed through their bodies!
"Chi! Chi! Chi!"
The three Black Flame monks who were originally standing and casting spells still had expressions of fear and disbelief on their faces, but soon, blood lines appeared on their pale faces.
"Hua La!"
All of a sudden, the three people turned into three piles of rotten meat mixed with blood!
Gregory's eyes jumped at this scene!
Close combat is not enough, the speed and power of witchcraft attacks are so amazing.
Knowing that the situation is over, Gregory and his assistant holding a wooden box hurriedly said: "Quick, let's go separately!"
But before his assistant could agree, a metal cage suddenly appeared and immediately covered him.
Then, three silver giant nets flashed by!
His assistant and the metal cage were cut into pieces.
This made Gregory feel cold in his heart. He knew that he was facing the biggest crisis in his life. If he failed to handle it well, he would follow the footsteps of the two high priests in Munster and Marne Province!
"It seems that this is the only trick!"
He rushed forward, grabbed the wooden box that his subordinate dropped on the ground, quickly opened it, took out a red crystal the size of a baby's head, and held it tightly in his hand.
The crystal was just exposed to the air, and immediately, a burning feeling filled the whole place.
When the deputy sect leader Bradley saw this red crystal, his face changed drastically and he said in a lost voice:
"Is this the Abyss Fire Crystal?!"
"You actually have this kind of thing, no wonder you can attract so many Hellfire Rock Giants."
But before Bradley finished speaking, Gregory's whole body was full of momentum, his hands were stretched out, and a large ball of black flame energy passed through his palms and was suddenly injected into the red crystal by him!
In an instant, the red crystal, like a living thing, began to float in the air.
Then, as if it was the first atom that triggered nuclear fission.
Several red fire snakes suddenly burst out from the crystal and quickly grew larger.
The fire snakes went from being as thick as a bowl to being thicker than a waist in an instant. They rushed into the air and pulled out a curve like a knot before returning to the crystal.
A few seconds later, more and more fire snakes appeared, like pieces of red cloth, piecing together a flame giant several meters high, appearing in front of everyone.
"Who is it? Who awakened the great Invernus!" A rough and low voice sounded.
At the same time, a super strong pressure began to sweep the whole place!
The school wizards who had not reached the second-level liquefaction level were trembling from the bottom of their hearts at this moment!
Damn it!
What on earth did the other party summon? !
"Oh no! The other party is reviving the abyss fire rock giant!" Bradley saw this scene and suddenly remembered a description in the ancient book, and immediately reacted.
"Quick! Stop him!"
Abyss fire rock giant?
Ryan looked at this scene with flashing eyes.
The wizards of the school cast various spells and bombarded the Abyss Fire Rock Giant that had just appeared, but most of the spells were vaporized by the evil fire energy three meters before the opponent's body.
Only the spell cast by Bradley, the crystallized wizard, could barely attack the opponent's body surface, but it was like tickling and failed to cause much substantial damage.
"Hehe, it's too late!" Gregory, who was hunched and haggard, saw this scene and laughed triumphantly.
Although he had just consumed almost all of his energy, and even some of his vitality, to awaken the Abyss Fire Crystal.
But paying such a high price was obviously worth it.
The combat power of the Abyss Fire Rock Giant was stronger than he imagined!
At this time, the Abyss Fire Giant who had just claimed to be Infernus seemed to have regained more consciousness. He looked down at himself, looked around, and said in a deep voice:
"My body is not complete."
He stretched out his hand, and several light green boulders flew towards him as if pulled by some special gravity.
The piles of light green Hellfire Rock Giant debris around also vibrated.
For a moment, hundreds of light green boulders gathered towards it like moths to a flame!
A few seconds later, a huge rock giant with a height of more than twelve meters and burning red flames appeared in front of everyone.
"What kind of monster is this?!"
"This is the Abyss Fire Rock Giant, the leader of the Hellfire Rock Giants!"
"It is also an epic creature from Baator Hell, but its body is made of the debris of Hellfire, so its strength should be greatly reduced, but it should at least have the strength of a legendary peak!"
Bradley said with an extremely ugly face.
The Obsidian War Golem was also brought to its full potential by Bradley.
The crystal core in the golem began to operate at full capacity, and the dark surface began to be covered with a thick layer of "stone skin" that flashed with yellow witchcraft aura.
Immediately, it strode towards the Abyssal Fire Rock Giant named Invernus.
"Boom boom boom!"
Every step was accompanied by a slight tremor on the ground!
"Concussion strike!" Bradley shouted.
"Bang bang bang!"
The Obsidian War Golem, with two huge fists like hammers, violently swung more than ten fast punches at the opponent! For
a moment, the gravel on the Abyssal Fire's body splashed!
But the next second, a huge stone punch hit the obsidian war golem, and it was immediately knocked out.
The size difference between the two was too big, more than seven meters versus more than twelve meters, it was almost like a monkey versus Tyson.
And the part of the obsidian war golem that had just been hit showed obvious signs of shattering and charring.
This further showed that the opponent could not withstand several heavy blows from the abyss fire!
For a moment, the hopeful eyes of the school wizards, including Bradley, were all focused on Ryan.
And the two women began to worry for the first time in their hearts. After all, the big guy in front of them was probably not less powerful than the strongest legendary "carver" Harold, and he was even tougher.
Whether Lord Ryan could defeat the opponent was still unknown.
"Haha, even if you are Ryan, you can only run away this time!" After paying a huge price, Gregory thought he had an absolute advantage, and he laughed like crazy.
"Ryan?"
"I seem to have heard of this name." Many wizards of the school looked puzzled, as if they had heard of this name before.
"Ah~" Ryan couldn't help but sigh when he saw that his identity had been exposed by the chief priest of the Black Flame Cult in front of him.
In this case, there was nothing to hide about the transformation.
Suddenly, Ryan's body began to grow like a balloon, and his skin turned dark gray, and pieces of dragon scales emerged!
The skin on his back suddenly burst open, and a pair of flesh wings grew out of it.
A few seconds later, a huge monster appeared in front of everyone.
There were three curved horns on the top of its head, and a thick and powerful tail on its tail vertebrae. Its body was even taller than the Abyss Fire Rock Giant.
Seeing this scene, everyone, including Bradley, was stunned!
But before everyone could come to their senses, Ryan, in the form of the Dragon King, rushed towards the Abyss Fire.
At the same time, Ryan activated the core skill "Weakness Control" of the epic profession "King of Thousand Blades".
Instantly, a three-dimensional image of the defense strength marked by blue, yellow and red dots appeared on the body of the Abyss Fire in front of him.
The red part of the opponent was the crystal in the center of his chest!
"Roar!"
Facing the attacking Ryan, the Abyss Fire angrily swung a heavy punch of rock.
But Ryan suddenly accelerated, and the huge dragon claws were like a venomous snake, piercing into the center of the opponent's chest, and took out the red crystal that was still beating like a heart.
At this time, the heavy punch of the Abyss Fire was still half a meter away from Ryan.
"Not great Infernus. Just woke up."
As the low and unwilling voice sounded, the patchwork Abyss Fire fell to the ground like a collapsed building!
"This, this." Gregory looked at this scene in a daze, not knowing what to say.
He spent so much money to summon the killer, but it was so vulnerable in front of Ryan!
The wizards of the school present, including Alicia, Audrey and even Paul who were hiding in the room, were all looking at the scene in front of them with their mouths wide open!
After all, hearing about it is far worse than seeing it in person!
"Too strong!"
"Too strong!" Paul muttered to himself.
With such strength, it's no wonder that he could kill Harold, the legendary 'sculptor'.
And Ryan, who was in the center of the venue, had returned to his human form.
At this moment, he weighed the red crystal he had just obtained - the Abyss Fire Crystal, and was in a very good mood.
Originally, he wanted to come to the Flame Canyon to find a few Hellfire Crystals while helping his mentor Mogaro solve the problem.
Unexpectedly, not only did he get more Hellfire Crystals than expected, but he also got an extra Abyss Fire Crystal.
Judging from the momentum that the other party had just exploded, this was equivalent to the Batuo Hell Creature of the Dawn Wizard, that is, the crystal of the alien creature with epic combat power.
It was enough for him to study the golem, and it was even more than enough.
