Chapter 173 010: Dark Wizard
"What should we do, Captain Jeffrey?" A female apprentice among the group of apprentices asked Jeffrey in front of her nervously.
As one of the best apprentices of the same period, Jeffrey was assigned a position as a team leader after the war broke out, leading dozens of apprentices.
Originally, Jeffrey thought this would be a glorious moment in his life, a great opportunity to make a name for himself in the League and even in the wizarding world. However, he never imagined that things would take such a turn.
Their original mission was to intercept those apprentices who slipped through the net of this generation. According to the alliance's plan, there might be some apprentices who would flee here.
After the war started, it was just as planned. More than one wave of apprentices came here, and Jeffrey led his men to intercept them perfectly.
However, what was unexpected was that it wasn't just apprentices who came here, but also full-time wizards!!! Jeffrey's face was full of bitterness.
Although he is already one of the most outstanding apprentices in the Elemental Castle and even in the entire Alliance, he has only condensed eight runes so far and is still far from the wizard level.
There is an absolute gap in power between an apprentice and a wizard. No matter how good an apprentice is, he is always just an apprentice and has no way to deal with a wizard.
At this moment, facing the question from the apprentice behind him, he gritted his teeth and said, "I will use magic to entangle her in a while, and then you will immediately flee to the front. The mentors are fighting with the wizards of the Shadow Tower in front. You will be safe once you find them."
The female apprentice's eyes suddenly turned red: "No! How can that be possible?"
Jeffrey's words clearly meant that he intended to sacrifice himself to give the rest of the people a chance.
The other apprentices also started arguing.
"No, Captain!"
"With so many of us, if we work together, we will definitely be able to defeat her!"
"Yes, we are many in number, we are not afraid of her!"
Before Jeffrey could speak, a sneer came from the front: "Heh, some little ants, do you also want to challenge the real power?"
The voice was soft and childish, sounding just like a child.
This is indeed the case. The image of the black wizard on the other side is very different from that of ordinary black wizards. She looks to be only six or seven years old, with baby fat on her fair and tender cheeks and golden curly hair. She looks like an exquisite doll.
As she spoke, the little girl raised her tender little hand and waved forward. The temperature in the air suddenly rose, and a series of "bang bang bang" sounds were heard, and flames burned around the little girl.
Some of these flames are the size of a palm, while others are only the size of a thumb. Individually, they do not seem to be very lethal, but they are so dense that they almost cover the entire sky. It looks like the entire sky is on fire.
The girl then waved her hand downwards, and suddenly, the flames in the sky covered the entire sky and hit the apprentices in front of her. All of a sudden, it was like a rain of fire falling from the sky.
Jeffrey's face changed drastically, and he quickly shouted: "Defense!"
Before the start of this war, the apprentices behind him had already trained with Jeffrey for more than half a year, and the cooperation between the two sides could be said to be very tacit. The Alliance specially taught them a formation of advancing and retreating together, which could concentrate their strength and thus exert a strength far beyond their apprentice level.
As soon as Jeffrey gave the order, the apprentices all raised their staffs and chanted spells.
A large amount of mental power was concentrated on Jeffrey. With so much mental power, Jeffrey briefly had the possibility of controlling wizard-level power. As he waved his wand upwards, a solid earth wall rose from the ground, protecting many apprentices like a fortress.
“Boom!”
Dense flames hit the earth wall, and the moisture in the originally damp soil evaporated instantly, and the earth fortress instantly became like a furnace.
Jeffrey quickly waved his staff and, with the help of his apprentices' mental power, changed the temperature in the fortress and quickly lowered the sudden high temperature. Otherwise, the people inside would have been roasted before the fortress was penetrated by the rain of fire.
After several minutes of rain, the rain of fire finally stopped, and the clay fortress summoned by Jeffrey had become riddled with holes, several of which had been pierced by flames.
The little girl looked surprised: "Oh, I didn't expect this apprentice to have some skills. How about trying this?"
She then raised her little hand and shook it gently.
She wore a pair of bell bracelets on her wrists, which made a pleasant "ding-ling-ling" sound as she swung her arms.
It was clearly just a crisp sound, but the terrifying thing was that there were obvious ripples in the air. These ripples, which were as real as substance, hit the ground, and all of a sudden the entire earth began to shake.
“Boom!”
It was as if a violent earthquake had suddenly occurred. The ground began to tremble violently, and Jeffrey's supporting clay fortress collapsed instantly, breaking into large pieces of rocks that smashed down on the apprentices below.
In order to maintain this clay fortress, the apprentices' mental strength has been gathered on Jeffrey, and now they have no spare energy to resist the falling boulders.
"ah!"
"My hand, my hand is broken!"
The apprentices were instantly hit by the falling boulders, their heads bleeding and falling all over the place, and the originally concentrated formation was instantly dispersed.
“Unbreakable!”
The little girl sneered contemptuously and raised her little hand. It was obviously just a light movement, but a large amount of flames burst out from her body. At the same time, there were bursts of violent tremors from the ground, and large chunks of soil and rocks floated up from the ground.
The flames around the little girl instantly swept over the rocks, dragging them high into the sky, forming burning flames, just like meteorites falling from the sky.
[Meteor Magic] is a wizard-level composite spell, a second-level spell, and a powerful spell that combines the fire and earth elements.
Looking at the meteorite floating in the sky, Jeffrey and other apprentices felt unprecedented despair. Their mental strength had been almost completely consumed in the previous battles, and now they had no spare energy to organize defensive spells.
Moreover, even if they cast their full-strength defensive spells, they were completely powerless against such a powerful second-ring magic.
The little girl didn't give them any chance to breathe.
"All of you go to hell."
She said it in a harmless way, just like an ordinary little girl saying something very ordinary.
But along with this young voice, the meteorites in the sky also fell down...
