Magicians never make wishes

Chapter 106 Fierce Battle

Faced with this colossal claw that blotted out the sky, Ronan felt an indescribable sense of powerlessness.

He was already considering whether to use the [Descent] function of his divine status to teleport his soul to the temple space before he died.

In this way, even if the body is destroyed, the soul can at least still exist.

However, Feizhou's subsequent reaction made him abandon this idea.

In an instant, a semi-transparent barrier suddenly covered the entire airship from the inside out, centered on the captain's cabin.

This barrier was extremely low above the airship, existing only one or two meters above everyone's heads.

The giant claw of the soul body slammed down in an instant, but was easily blocked by this semi-transparent barrier.

There wasn't even a slight spillage of impact.

This should be the airship's last means of self-defense; it wasn't used even when attacked by a large group of Flash-eating Wyverns.

"I see, no wonder you dared—"

The man in the black robe was only halfway through his sentence when two multicolored cannonballs were launched from both sides of the airship, heading straight for him.

"Possession by a Dead Soul - Soul Armor"

The man in black reacted quickly, crossing his arms in front of his chest.

Instantly, a phantom of a soul armor enveloped him.

Two cannon shots followed closely, but were completely blocked by the armored phantom.

Before the man in black robes could utter a mocking remark, the giant cannon atop the flying boat fired an even thicker, multicolored beam of light, which blasted straight at the phantom.

This attack was several times more powerful, instantly dimming the illusory light and almost completely dissipating it.

"This power—you've actually advanced to the second tier!"

The man in black robes gritted his teeth and said incredulously, "Those hypocrites in the elemental system actually went out of their way to upgrade you—"

"Thanks to you, Reihart," Niru said in a calm voice, his tone still devoid of emotion. "Because of your attack last time, the number of new students in several academies decreased sharply, forcing me to slightly increase my strength."

"You think you can fight me with a second-tier alchemical puppet? That's a bit much—"

The man in black robes snorted coldly, reaching out to grasp at the air. "You underestimate me!"

In an instant, a giant hand made of soul appeared in the air, holding a giant axe that was also made of soul but surrounded by soul fire.

"Possessed by a Dead Soul - Soul Axe"

The man in black robes swung his sword, and the giant axe of his soul form rapidly grew larger. By the time it struck the barrier, it was almost the same size as the giant claw from before.

However, in terms of attack power and destructive force, it is a level above the giant claw.

The airship's barrier cracked with several large fissures under this axe blow, unable to withstand more than a few more similar attacks.

At that moment, the three giant cannons on the airship simultaneously opened fire on the man in black robes.

Three thick beams of light arrived in an instant.

Just as it was about to hit, a familiar, low, muffled thud was heard.

thump.

The man in black robes instantly moved to another location, skillfully dodging the three cannon shots from the airship.

"Has my newly mastered 'Lightning Release Technique' calculated this result?"

The man in black robes smirked as he looked at Niru, who was pointing a cannon at him.

Without saying a word, Niru fired three more shots at once.

One shot to attack, two shots to blockade.

However, it has absolutely no effect on the extreme speed of "Lightning Release Technique".

Ronan secretly memorized the magic.

He thought that if he could survive this ordeal, he would also master this magic that was comparable to teleportation.

Fortunately, the man in black robes could not move quickly while simultaneously launching a soul attack.

For a short time, Niru and the man in black robes were locked in a strange stalemate.

Once one side stops, it will suffer a fatal blow from the other.

Both sides were waiting in tacit agreement.

We'll see whether it was the flying boat Niru that ran out of its energy reserves first, or the black-robed man, Lehart, who first exhausted his mental energy.

"What should I do?!"

Although the apprentices were not very strong, they could see the current situation and began to whisper among themselves and discuss it.

"Lord Niru, does the airship's barrier allow for magical attacks from the inside out?"

The tall man next to Ronan, Wyatt, shouted loudly, trying to inquire about the characteristics of the airship's barrier.

To my surprise, I actually received a reply from Niru: "Okay."

This reply indicated that everyone was free to attack the black-robed figure in the air.

There's no telling if a magical attack might actually disrupt him, thus breaking the current bizarre balance.

"Everyone, use all your offensive magic to target the man in black!"

Someone immediately spoke up to warn them and fired a fireball into the air.

"Everyone, let's get started!"

"Attack the area to the side!"

"Block their escape routes and focus on disruption!"

The apprentices sprang into action, unleashing a barrage of spells into the air.

The Flash-Eating Dragon was isolated outside the barrier; its current enemy was this man in black robes.

Faced with the sudden barrage of magical attacks from all around, the man in black robes chuckled, "Quite energetic—but unfortunately, a bit lacking in strength."

After saying that, he used a "Lightning Escape Technique" and instantly appeared at the stern of the flying boat—a blind spot for the three giant cannons.

"It's almost time—"

The man in black robes muttered something to himself, then unleashed his Soul Axe, slashing down at the barrier twice in succession.

Boom!

The spaceship's last line of defense suddenly shattered at that moment.

at the same time.

A thick, scorching ray of light shot out from the crowd, heading straight for the man in black robes' face.

thump.

A deep, muffled sound came from behind, but the man in black robes did not relax at this moment and promptly activated his "Lightning Escape Technique".

As he dodged the ray attack, his figure appeared above the crowd.

Immediately afterwards, a giant soul claw scooped down and grabbed Ronan, holding him up in front of the man in black robes.

"Kid, your mental strength is pretty good, you're the one."

The man in black robes grinned sinisterly and casually waved his hand, creating yet another giant claw of soul form.

The giant claw of the soul casually grabbed around, scooping up dozens of apprentices and firmly imprisoning them on its claw, without causing them any harm.

"Niru, I'm very satisfied with the students this time."

The man in black robes mocked scornfully, "Next time, don't leave yourself any blind spots."

Then, the "Lightning Escape Technique" was activated, and the black-robed man and the apprentices captured by the two giant soul claws all disappeared.

Ronan hadn't expected that the man in black would be able to react to his carefully prepared surprise attack.

When he was grabbed by the giant claw of the soul, he had to perform a miracle.

Unexpectedly, in just a moment, I found myself in another scene.

It turns out that the "Lightning Escape Technique" is not only capable of rapid and short-term displacement within a certain range, but it is also second to none in long-distance movement.

At this moment, he was just like the apprentice who had been grabbed by another giant claw, firmly bound to the back of some enormous creature.

He swept across the spiritual realm.

Only then did they realize that the giant creature beneath them was actually a Pteranodon that ate flashes—

No, this size is unlike that of a typical Pteranodon; it should be considered the leader of the pteranodons, the King of Pteranodons.

However, this pterosaur king's fur was dry and its flesh was decaying; some parts of its body were even infested with maggots.

More precisely, this is the corpse of a Pteranodon king.

It carried everyone at breakneck speed through the thunderclouds, its speed no less than that of Niru's flying boat.

With the aid of his spiritual senses, Ronan clearly saw two clusters of ghostly blue soul flames burning quietly within its pupils.
