Chapter 59: Financial Power
The black-scaled giant was Richard. At this moment, his magic power had been fully restored and the injury on his arm had healed to the point where he could use it.

Hiss!

The greatsword burning with black flames tore open the magic barrier of a puppet apprentice, and the greedy demon fire instantly drained the apprentice's magic power.

The magic power of these controlled apprentices was mostly depleted. With just a slight burn from the Greedy Demon's flame, their magic power was gone.

Although these apprentices didn't have much magic power, there were more than a dozen of them. The blind apprentice saw Richard kill one apprentice with one sword, and then ordered all the apprentices to attack.

These apprentices were just cannon fodder to him, and he didn't care if any of them died.

As long as he can buy enough time, these apprentices' marks will still be his in the end.

Richard swung his sword horizontally, cutting in half an apprentice who had activated his bloodline and transformed into a gorilla. Before he could put away his sword, another apprentice pounced on him, and at the same time, other apprentices cast spells one after another.

The minds of these apprentices have been completely controlled. They attack fearlessly and without any regard for the possibility that their companions will be affected by the spells.

hum!
The Guardian Pendant is activated.

The spells created ripples on the magic shield. Although the spells of these apprentices had improved a bit, they were still far from being able to break Richard's magic shield.

Richard also took this opportunity to approach the group of apprentices with magic.

sizzle...

Richard rushed into the apprentices like a wolf into a flock of sheep. These low-level apprentices who were controlled had no ability to resist at all. The high temperature of the black flames turned their wounds into charcoal in an instant, and a strange burnt smell filled the air.

But at this moment, the blind wizard laughed strangely, and a creepy aura instantly emanated from his body.

"Hehe, it's done."

This aura is definitely not something that a human can emit. Even if one is practicing blood alchemy, no one would be able to fuse this kind of blood.

This aura was extremely evil, as if it held the most vicious malice towards all life.

Richard shuddered as he recognized the change in the apprentice before him.

"You actually reached a contract with the madman wandering in the star realm!" Richard said in a deep voice.

"Oh?"

The blind apprentice was a little surprised when he heard this. His method was extremely rare, and even wizards rarely could recognize it.

"Some insight."

There are not only worlds in the astral realm, but also some astral creatures. Some of these creatures are astral whales as big as mountains, and some are astral nomads who use ships as their homes. Among these creatures, the most terrifying are the madmen born from the corpses of the world.

This kind of astral creature has great malice towards the living since its birth, and will madly kill every living being it sees.

These madmen are strong and weak, and after wizards discovered this kind of creature, they set their sights on their strength. Among them, the soul wizards need the pollution of the spiritual power by the madmen.

This kind of pollution can quickly break down mental barriers.

"Don't worry, the spell will work quickly." The blind apprentice laughed strangely, and a soul tentacle filled with extreme malice attacked Richard's head.

Boom!

In Richard's spiritual perception, the two mental barriers of the mind protection ring were shattered, and the blind apprentice's smile became more rampant.

"it's over!"

"Yeah, it's over."

Richard looked at him coldly, and another ring on his hand lit up.

He has more than just two mind-protecting rings.

boom!
The third layer of mental barrier shattered and Richard felt a headache, but at this moment this soul tentacle was no longer able to shake Richard's mind.

"Three...rings..."

The blind apprentice stared blankly at the ring on Richard's hand, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

Richard pulled out the black sword stuck in his chest, and then smashed his head with a punch. "Wuni, come down and eat!"

The most important thing for a gang is reputation. If they say I'll feed you, then I'll feed you.

……

On the other side of the dense forest, two shapeshifting wizards were fighting passionately.

The duel between Shaper wizards is not so complicated. They only compete on two points. One is the power of the spell, and the other is the amount of magic power.

If one of the two opponents has an advantage in two points at the same time, then it can almost be declared a winner. If both sides have an advantage in one point, then it depends on how well they perform.

A fire crow flew over, and Holden waved his staff gracefully. An ice cone easily intercepted the fire crow, and the spell that was released prematurely was easily blocked by his magic barrier, without causing any ripples.

Compared with Holden's elegance, Ellie's condition was a little embarrassing.

The advanced apprentice-level fire giant beat her back step by step, and her magic cloak was damaged in many places. If she didn't have enough magic stones and her magic barrier had not been greatly modified, she would have been burned to charcoal by the fire giant by now.

Holder strolled leisurely on the battlefield, he was not in a hurry to end the battle.

Susanna's cursed flame always made Holden feel afraid, so he would rather go slower and use the fire giant to kill Ellie bit by bit.

boom!
Ellie fired another fireball, temporarily forcing the fire giant back. She leaned on her staff, feeling a little dizzy.

Using spells multiple times in a short period of time has consumed a lot of her mental energy. If she continues like this, she may even make mistakes in casting spells.

"I wonder how Richard is doing." Ellie said worriedly, but when she thought of her own situation, she laughed at herself.

At a time like this, she should worry about herself first.

Ellie stood up weakly, and the high temperature of the fire giant made her sweat profusely.

She knew what Holden was afraid of.

Her teacher Susanna had taught her the spell called Cursefire a long time ago, but Ellie usually wouldn't use it unless it was an emergency.

Because this spell consumes soul power instead of magic power. Every time she uses this spell, her mental power will be permanently reduced.

But at this moment, Ellie couldn't care less.

Ellie took out the magic stone and chanted an ancient spell. Holden, who was in the distance, saw this and immediately hid aside.

A light purple flame appeared at Ellie's fingertips. Although it was only a tiny one, it made the majestic fire giant retreat again and again. No matter how much Holder ordered it to go up, it refused to move.

It felt the fear of death in this flame.

Feeling her soul being consumed, Ellie smiled bitterly and was about to bypass the giant and rush straight towards Holden.

It would be a waste to use such a deadly move on this fire giant.

But at this moment, a figure rushed out from the forest and called out to Ellie.

"Don't be impulsive, Ellie. Things haven't come to that point yet."

Holden looked at the black-scaled giant that rushed out of the forest. The giant was more than two meters tall, covered in black scales, and had strong magical fluctuations. It was obvious at first glance that he was a mid-level apprentice of bloodline alchemy.

"Turns out he's a barbarian with alchemy in his blood." Holder showed a mocking smile and immediately ordered the fire giant to attack Richard.

If you like hand-to-hand combat, then go and fight the fire giant.

The fire giant took a step and headed straight towards Richard, but Richard did not panic at all. Instead, he took off the magic bag around his waist.

He sent a mental message to the giant.

"Flame Giant, I want to make a deal with you now. I will pay twice as much magic stones as that apprentice to make a contract with you!"

At the same time, Richard turned the bag downwards, and magic stones poured out one by one.
