Chapter 112 The Masked Mage Assembly

Despite her surprise, Elise calmly raised her wand, only to find that the surrounding magic was completely still and extremely difficult to mobilize.

"Forbidden Magic!"

To be precise, it's a weakened version of the anti-magic field; it doesn't completely suppress magical effects, and magical items are still active.

Anser had no time to think. He leaped into the air, his hands transforming into dragon claws as he crossed his arms. As the metal net fell, he slashed it forcefully.

A series of metallic clanging sounds rang out, and a large hole was torn in the metal mesh, causing the magical aura on it to dissipate.

"broken!"

"How can it be--"

Elise's voice and that of a strange man came one after the other.

Anser activated the King Butterfly Cloak, flapped his wings, and rushed out through the tear.

His dragon transformation is unique; while other dragons rely on strength, his claws are imbued with spellcasting attributes.

He heard a whoosh of wind behind him and turned to see Elise following closely behind on her flying carpet. She waved her wand, and a spell rose with the wind, instantly forming eight miniature meteors that spun around her, creating a series of whooshing sounds.

'Instantaneous four-ring micro-meteor!' Anser understood.

Elise remained expressionless, pointed her small wand downwards, and a shooting star shot out downwards.

"call out--"

The miniature meteor hurtled towards the crowd with a shriek, landing on one person's back in the blink of an eye and exploding with a deafening roar. Flames and shockwaves swept across an area of ​​two to three meters around it.

The crowd scattered in panic.

Anser looked at their attire and felt it looked very familiar. The way they used to suppress magic right away seemed all too familiar.

He decisively activated the "True Vision Ring," and a ray of spiritual light surrounded his eyes, instantly making his vision clear.

Scanning her surroundings, she saw a blurry figure floating in the air, stealthily approaching Elise, who was focused on casting spells, the two less than ten meters apart.

'You bastard!'

Anser cursed under his breath, a flash of silver mist appeared around him, and the next second he was already beside Elise.

""

"Innate Magic" + "Super Magic: Instant Cast, Upgrade" + "Immobilize Humanoids"!
The elemental orb flashed, and the figure froze in place, the light and shadow on its body shattering, leaving its body completely exposed to the air.

[You cast a humanoid immobilization on Master Shadow Thief, saving throw on Hard (20). Master Shadow Thief's saving throw failed!]

Almost the instant the Shadow Thief Master manifested, Elise adjusted her attack target, and a miniature meteor grazed Anser's body before hurtling towards the enemy.

"call out--"

The meteor struck the Shadow Thief squarely in the chest, sending him flying with a bang. However, a semi-transparent shield appeared around him, indicating that he had only suffered minor injuries.

"call out--"

A tiny meteor broke free from the nebula and hurtled after it, with Elise following closely behind on her flying carpet.

Anser did not rush to cast a spell, but instead used the flight ability of elemental resonance to increase his altitude and move away from the treetop.

Below, a warrior wearing a horned helmet and carrying a shield leaps onto a tree trunk, tenses his body, and throws his short spear with all his might.

"call out--"

Anser calmly looked down, not even trying to dodge, and continued to climb. After flying dozens of meters, the short spear ran out of power and floated down lightly.

This is the drawback of physical attacks; shooting upwards significantly reduces both range and power.

'Ninety meters, that's about right.'

He stood suspended in mid-air, a relatively safe distance with good visibility, making any attack aimed at him impossible to miss.

At that moment, the spell to immobilize humanoids was interrupted. He turned his head and saw Elise bombarding the forest below; it seemed the shadow thief had hidden himself.

Anser withdrew his gaze, used the butterfly wings to stabilize his body, and his magic surged around him as he locked onto the bull-horned warrior on the tree trunk.

""

"Super Magic: Powerful, Tracking" + "Fireball"!
A bright flash flew from his fingertip, rapidly traversing dozens of meters before appearing above the treetops.

The bull-horned warrior was prepared. He stomped on the tree trunk and leaped to the other side, attempting to use the tree canopy and trunk to block the spell's effect.

The flash of light traced an arc in the air, locking onto him again and chasing closely behind.

The horned warrior was startled and curled up in mid-air, turning his shield towards the flash of light.

"boom--"

The blazing flames engulfed everything, forming a red and yellow fireball nearly twenty meters high, which engulfed several enemies.

Dead branches, fallen leaves, tree trunks, tree crowns... were ignited in an instant, flames rose everywhere and lasted for a long time, the heat waves stirring up the smoke and fire endlessly.

"what……"

Several screams rang out, sharp and suppressed.

[...The masked mage's high-ranking warrior has taken 21 points of fire damage; current health: 83/104]

[...The elite Shadow Thieves have died; 175 combat experience points have been gained.]

Two ordinary professionals died, but the horned warrior who was closest to them was unharmed.

'A masked monk gathering?'

Anser stared intently, but could not see the horned warrior at all. He only saw a large round shield lying on the ground, like a turtle hiding its head in its shell.

A few seconds later, the shield spun violently, blowing away the surrounding flames, and then lifted straight off the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The shield was placed on top and moved quickly horizontally. Anser couldn't see the person below at all; the opponent's feet weren't even showing.

"Holy crap, Turtle Warrior!"

Clearly, this person has extensive experience in dealing with spellcasters; their methods are simple yet highly effective.

The key point is that the material of that large shield is very similar to the shell of some magical creature, which is likely to be soundproof, heat-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and non-conductive.

The wind howled as Elise returned on her flying carpet, surrounded by several tiny shooting stars.

This should be the second spell.

"call out--"

Elise showed no sign of retreating, her face tense as she chased after the turtle warrior, throwing meteors at him.

The tortoise warrior moved swiftly, using trees and its shell to block the meteor's impact. Although it was in a sorry state, it was not fatally injured.

Anser remained hovering above his head, the dice spinning slightly, finally detecting the target information:
[Masked Mage Guild High-Rank Warrior, Orc, Level 11 Warrior (Warrior)]

'The single-target damage of the micro-meteor is a bit lacking, and it also consumes focus.'

It seems Elise is far from regaining her normal spellcasting ability; third and fourth-level spells are probably her limit. Otherwise, she could easily take down her opponent with a single high-level spell.

Anser scanned the area but couldn't find the Shadow Thief Master; he was probably invisible again.

He lowered his altitude slightly, locked onto the turtle warrior, and raised his hand to unleash a level-up immobilization attack on the humanoid!
This spell is different from the fear spell; it takes effect immediately after being cast and there is no way to avoid it, provided that you can see it. If you can't see it, you can only guess.

As expected, the turtle warrior's first immunity failed, his body went numb, and he collapsed to the ground, his shield flying off.

The next second, two miniature meteors arrived in an instant, seamlessly connecting and hitting the tortoise warrior's torso in succession. Flames exploded, smashing his body into the ground.

"Whoosh—" The third micro meteor has arrived.
