The Wizard World - Chapter 362

Chapter 362
　　

Angele stood up, walked to the stone gate, and glared at the three wizards . They were sitting at the table with their eyes closed, waiting for the time to come .

The room was so quiet that he could hear the three breathing .

Angele opened the door and stepped outside .

The temperature in the underground tunnel was high and the sulfurous smell was intense . He cut the volcano lizard’s meat into pieces and mixed them with some mushroom to make a soup . He separated the soup into three portions and returned to the stone room .

"Have some food . It seems like you’ll have to wait for a while . "

Morrian and Milan were talking about something in low voices . Seth was taking a nap in his chair .

"Thank you, Angele . We don’t want to cause you too much trouble, but…" Morrian looked Angele and apologized .

"It’s fine . There’s nothing I can do for Nico, so I’ll just try my best to assist you on other matters . " Angele smiled .

Angele put down the soup on the table and returned to his own seat . He looked at the white circle carefully .

The scene in the circle was shaking slightly—it seemed like Nico was riding a horse, and the trees on the sides were moving backward .

"She’ll be traveling on the road for about three more days . Nico’s army was moving to a large canyon as her family was fighting against her enemies there . According to the message Nico sent a while ago, there were more than 10,000 people fighting in the war, and her army was the last reinforcements her brother had . If Nico’s army is eliminated, her family will be destroyed . "

Morrian stopped for a second and continued to explain, "We need to wait till Nico’s enemy tries to attack them before we cast our spells through the energy pool . "

Milan nodded and woke Seth up for the food .

Angele sat down and waited for the three to finish their meal . He then took the empty dishes back to the kitchen and washed them clean . Angele returned to the stone room again and started observing the energy pool . It was the first time he saw wizards provide ranged support using the pool and he wanted to collect as much information as possible .

Three days were like nothing to wizards, they would not mind the wait at all .

Time flew, and three days passed in the blink of an eye .

The atmosphere in the stone room was getting heavier and heavier .

Morrian was staring at the circle and Milan was meditating with her eyes closed . Seth sat on the side, he was playing with a red monkey . The monkey was jumping back and forth on his shoulders while yelling .

Angele lowered his head; there were blue light dots flashing in front of his eyes .

"Alright, get ready! It’s about time!" Morrian suddenly shouted .

The three stopped what they were doing and looked at the white circle immediately .

It seemed like Nico had entered the battlefield and the scene was still shaky . The cavalry in blue armor was everywhere, riding on black horses . All the cavalrymen who entered Nico’s sight were blown into pieces as if they were hit by bombs, turning into blood mist .

"Master Nico! Someone is coming to us!" A nervous voice came from somewhere far behind .

Nico quickly turned her head around and looked at a small hill ahead . Two men in black were attacking a man in blue on top of the hill .

The blue robe was trying his best to protect a silver carriage under the war banner . Electric pulses, purple energy flows, and lasers were flying everywhere around the three .

"Damn!" Nico’s voice came from the white circle .

She started charging toward the small hill right away .

Three lava balls were released from her right hand and they soared through the air, flying toward the hill .

The surface of the lava balls was red and there was golden lava flowing through the tiny cracks on it . The soldiers around were terrified; they moved to the side quickly, their horses running around in fear .

The path in front of Nico was cleared and she could easily move through .

*BOOM BOOM BOOM*

The loud noise echoed in the air as the three lava balls exploded, turning into three golden shadows . The golden shadows flew toward the men in black like lightning bolts . For some reason, the lava drops did not splash around .

"All hail the Muses!" one of the men in black shouted . A distorted minotaur shadow appeared in front of him—it was enormous .

The minotaur opened its mouth and roared .

*BAM*

A ray of golden light penetrated the three golden shadows, turning them into countless golden light dots, disappearing into the air .

"The Roar of Minotaur! It’s my first time seeing the ability being activated successfully . " Milan was impressed . "There’s only a small chance that you can learn the ability when practicing an advanced meditation technique called the Minotaur’s Ritual . Also, you can’t control the ability very well even if you can activate it . However, the ability might be triggered when the caster is just trying to move the energy particles . Nico’s opponent was lucky . "

Inside the circle, the golden ray flew straight at Nico after destroying the lava balls .

Seth raised his left hand and red light dots appeared between his fingers .

*PA*

"Wait!" Milan stopped him .

"But…!" Seth was getting nervous .

"Trust Nico . She’s weaker than Shozo and me, but she won’t be defeated so easily . Remember, she’s also one of Master Vivian’s students," Morrian spoke in a light tone .

"Holy Light!" Nico’s voice came from the circle again .

A ball of red light appeared in front of Nico . The light ball was about the size of a fist, and it blinked twice .

A large web covered with fist-sized runes and strings was created in front of Nico by the energy particles within seconds . All the strings were connected to the light ball in the center .

*CHI*

The ray hit the large web hard .

The red web and the golden ray started fighting against each other .

The endless golden energy particles were slowly turning the red web’s color to gold . Strangely, it seemed like the web was absorbing the golden ray’s power and it was expanding .

Although the web was expanding, the golden ray’s strength was penetrating it at a much faster rate .

*CHI*

The golden ray finally went through the large web .

However, the web bought Nico enough time to dodge the attack . She moved to the left and kept charging forward . The man on the right was still fighting against the man in blue and the other man in black already released five elemental golems .

Two of them were earth golems and they were completely black . The golems had strong bodies and they rushed toward Nico as they opened their mouths .

There were also three wind golems that were about one meter tall each . They surrounded the earth golems, laughing . The wind golems looked like three green ribbons .

Some of the cavalrymen around were top-level Knights—Angele could see the white light surrounding their bodies . They tried to attack the earth golems, but their weapons were easily blocked . The cavalrymen were then grabbed by the earth golems and thrown to the ground . The Knights were severely injured and the blood they spat out turned into a small pool on the ground .

The land started shaking as the two earth golems rushed toward Nico .

Morrian, Seth, and Milan’s faces turned serious after seeing that scene .

"Nico’s enemies were well prepared…" Milan muttered .

At that moment, Nico’s voice came from the white circle again .

"Morrian and Millan, it’s about time . Destroy that hill for me . "

The three exchanged glances and nodded slightly .

"Earth Fire!" Morrian raised his right hand and reached to the circle . A terrifying red skull appeared behind him, with black flames burning in the skull’s eyes .

"Light of the Night!" Milan raised her hands as well and a pair of purple eyes appeared behind her .

Seth did the same thing, causing black flames to start burning on his right arm . "Decompose!"

They slowly moved their hands to the center .

*CHI*

The three hands merged into each other as they touched . The scene was quite strange .

Their hands looked like a large ball of play dough . The play dough turned into a humongous hand that was about half a meter wide, then sank into the table and reached to the small hill in Nico’s sight .

Angele’s eyes were wide open and he could feel that his body became numb .

The horrifying energy surrounded the wizards in the stone room . Angele opened his mouth and tried to inhale, but he couldn’t feel the air .

It felt like the air in the room was solidified and Angele thought he was an insect that was trapped in amber . His attributes were extremely high, but he could barely move .

Angele stared at the screen inside the light circle and his pupils constricted . He finally understood the true power of the inheritor magic circle .

　　*************************

On a large plain in front of a canyon .

The blue cavalry was fighting against the black cavalry, their roars and war drums as their background music .

A beautiful girl in a white battle dress was fighting on the battlefield—it was Nico . Her dress was soaked in blood .

She looked at the small hill in the front calmly, holding the necklace tightly in hand . Blue light leaked out of the gaps between her fingers—the light came from a diamond-shaped blue crystal .

"Morrian and Milan, it’s about time . Destroy that hill for me," she spoke in a cold tone .

The diamond-shaped crystal shined and released a ray of blue light after she finished her words . The light struck into the air, leaving a blue trail behind—the trail slowly disappeared after several seconds .

Suddenly, the sunlight disappeared from the land, and the sky was covered by a sea of black clouds .

The clouds turned into a large vortex which started spinning on top of the hill slowly .

The battlefield was covered by the shadow . The soldiers stopped fighting at the same time; they raised their heads and stared at the sky .

People underneath the shadow could feel terrifying pressure coming from the sky . The soldiers could barely move under such heavy pressure; it almost looked like they were trapped in a swamp .

The people on the hill were the ones who were directly impacted by the pressure .

The two men in black and the man in blue were moving like turtles . The scene looked like a slow-motion movie . It would take them two seconds just to complete a simple movement .

It took one of the men about ten seconds to raise his right hand, fear was written all over his face .

The earth golems and the wind golems were also slowed down—they were having a hard time moving forward .

Nico looked at the hill, looking depressed . "Maxwell, the family will remember your sacrifice . " Her voice echoed in the sky .

The man in blue already accepted his death, he looked happy after hearing Nico’s voice .

*BAM*

Seconds later, an enormous hand appeared in the center of the giant vortex and hit the top of the hill . The hand looked like a white stone pillar that fell from the sky .
