Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 1302 Dual Wielding Battle with Lancelot
Returning to reality, Luther locked onto Caster's position.

The only way to end this battle is to defeat Caster as quickly as possible.

Caster also seemed to have sensed Luther's magical lock, and like a frightened bird, he fled around in the complex underground palace with his master Ryunosuke Amayura.

Ryunosuke Uesugi is not a magician. Although his physical strength is better than that of ordinary people, he is already exhausted after a long escape.

His breathing became rapid and heavy, his face was pale as paper, and his eyes were full of fear and despair.

His fate is closely linked to Caster's. Once Caster is defeated, he will also die.

Luther was getting closer and closer, and the powerful magical fluctuations were like an invisible net, enveloping them tightly.

In the pursuit and escape, Caster and Ryunosuke Uesugi finally had no choice but to embark on the journey back to their original nest.

That secret place is where the magic mechanism they carefully planned and cleverly laid out is located. It is also their last support and line of defense in this desperate situation.

Their hearts were filled with reluctance and helplessness, but they also understood that only by relying on these intricate and complex defensive measures could they gain a chance to breathe and a glimmer of hope for a counterattack.

It was a palace located deep underground in Fuyuki City, a magic workshop built by Caster himself.

This place is filled with eerie silence and a gloomy atmosphere, with a faint smell of blood in the air, as if every stone and every pillar is soaked in darkness and evil.

Every corner here reveals the unique aesthetics and taste of Caster, the dark wizard. The twisted runes, strange statues, and the traps and mechanisms hidden in the shadows together form a heart-pounding horror scene.

However, at this moment, this magic workshop is facing an unprecedented crisis.

The mechanisms and traps that were supposed to protect this area were now being brutally demolished.

Lancelot, the powerful servant, is approaching the core of the palace step by step with an unstoppable momentum.

Caster stood high on the palace, looking at the enemy approaching from a distance, his eyes flashing with resentment and anger.

His attainments in magic were far inferior to those of true masters, but he never gave up his desire for power.

This magic workshop is a work he carefully created to make up for his shortcomings in magic.

He hopes that through this workshop, he can create a completely new and different dimension, constructing endless murderous intent in a small space.

However, reality is often more cruel than imagination.

Although Caster had set up countless mechanisms and traps in this workshop, these mechanisms and traps seemed so fragile and powerless in the face of strong men like Lancelot and Luther.

In addition to those magic traps that can briefly delay time, Caster relies more on the huge number of water monsters as the main means of defense.

However, these water monsters were easily torn apart like fragile pieces of paper under Lancelot's powerful attack.

At this moment, Lancelot had another sword-shaped treasure in his hand.

This sword was summoned from Luther's King's Treasure. It has built-in lightning damage and is perfect for dealing with water monsters.

With two swords in hand, Lancelot's momentum became even more astonishing, and his martial arts were also greatly improved with the help of these two swords.

"Boom! Boom! Boom boom——"

Accompanied by deafening roars, thunder surged in the air, and golden lightning seemed to fall from the sky, smashing onto the ground with destructive power.

At that moment, the entire underground palace seemed to be shaken by this force. The stone slabs on the ground were instantly blown away, revealing the deep darkness below. And where the golden lightning fell, azure plasma spread out like a raging wave, covering everything around.

Lancelot roared and swung the two swords in his hands at the same time. Two lightning bolts moved in the air like spirit snakes and quickly spread to the surroundings.

Those water monsters that were originally ready to move were instantly electrocuted and trembled after being exposed to the lightning.

The water vapor in their bodies quickly evaporated under the illumination of lightning, and their originally twisted and wriggling bodies quickly withered and became as dry as tree bark, and finally fell to the ground powerlessly.

Those water monsters that originally possessed the ability to heal themselves also lost the possibility of resurrection under the restraint of lightning.

At this moment, Ryunosuke Uesugi was feeling as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

However, this anxiety does not stem from the fear of death.

As an excellent killer, he always maintains an almost morbid curiosity and desire to explore death.

Even though the shadow of death was approaching quietly, he never retreated.

But at this moment, Ryunosuke Uesugi's heart was filled with reluctance and helplessness.

He was not afraid of death, but he felt that his mission was not yet completed and he had not truly understood the true meaning of death.

It was undoubtedly a great regret for him to end his life so hastily before he had truly experienced death.

He longed to understand death and to experience the wonderful feeling of transcending life and death, but at this moment, all of this seemed to be in vain.

"Caster, those water demons and traps can't stop them at all. Berserker is about to rush in. Why are you so calm?"

Ryunosuke Uryu looked at the big-eyed marshal beside him, and saw that his face looked normal, and he was still reciting the summoning spell calmly. This calm attitude made Ryunosuke Uryu feel helpless and crazy.

"Don't worry. If we really can't resist it, it will be in vain no matter how much we worry."

Caster's voice was calm and firm, as if he had everything under control.

After all, he was once a soldier who commanded thousands of troops. He had experienced countless life and death tests and had long since developed a calm mind.

"Hey, you're not going to give up just like that, are you? We're going to die. We're both going to die!"

Ryunosuke Uryu complained somewhat weakly.

He couldn't understand why Caster could remain so calm and composed when facing such a desperate situation.

In his opinion, Caster's heart was a little too big.

"I can't help it. Berserker is indeed very powerful. If I had been given enough time to prepare, I could have prepared a 'big gift' for him. But now, the attack came too suddenly, and I don't have any good solution for the time being."

Caster shook his head helplessly, his brows furrowed slightly.

There was a hint of unwillingness and regret in his eyes, as if he was also lamenting the impending failure.

"Don't just accept your fate, okay? Don't you still have dreams that haven't been fulfilled?"

Ryunosuke Uesugi scratched his hair, with a hint of pleading and unwillingness in his voice.
