Quit the team, then picked up a beautiful girl with problems

"I don't know, I heard an explosion!"

Earl's Mansion?

Leon gave up the idea of entering the hidden place and moved closer with the help of the wind.

He didn't think it was an accident.

How dare Count Finat take direct action, or is he using some cunning tactics?

As an old man of the Order Flame Corps, with Lancelot's experience and strength, the Earl should not have any power or means to harm him.

They both thought so, and they hadn't worried about the Empire before. If the Empire was really powerful, would they need Winders to come back from the Heavenly Group to help block the waterway?

However, the arrival of the mysterious blue girl seemed to be a response to the accident before her eyes.

Star Soul, ancient events, the Blue Girl... In the past few days, Leon may have felt more surprises than when the Heaven Group conquered the Jedi. Who knows what kind of situation may have appeared in the Earl's Mansion that he had no idea about.

Gradually, the Earl's manor came into view, and Leon discovered that not every place was on fire. The main affected area was the small courtyard where Winders was imprisoned.

Some people were running to put out the fire, and Leon stopped in the distance.

The ring I just got is getting hot.

The sky blue ring seemed to be breathing, the lustrous blue color on its surface waxing and waning, gradually transmitting a stronger heat, until it was so strong that it almost felt like a knife cutting it.

Li Ang wanted to take it away, but at this moment, a tall figure blocked his way.

The appearance of this person startled the onlookers and firefighters.

He was at least two meters forty-five in height, and his entire body was covered in black armor that was covered in sharp blades and spikes. Although there was fire behind him, the surface of the armor did not reflect a single light, as if all the light that passed through it was swallowed up.

He held a huge sword in his hand, almost as long as his burly height. Because he held it with one hand, the tip of the sword cut into the stone slabs on the ground. The hilt was connected to a large guard, which was wrapped in purple material and moved rhythmically like breathing.

If these were merely oddities, the most depressing thing was that the helmet he wore lacked any observation holes, constructed entirely from a single block of black metal. A single, dark gold-colored substance bore a single, enormous eye, filling the entire flat face of the helmet.

The spikes, the breathing, the one eye, these strange elements combined together, the black warrior in front of us looks like a punisher from hell.

The moment he saw Leon, the black warrior crushed the stone slabs under his feet and turned into a black lightning and crashed directly into him.

The Wind Chaser's Holy Bell swayed at his waist, and Li Ang immediately drew on a large amount of magic power to construct a wind element shield that was upgraded to level 7. The magical wind swirled to form multiple air shields with faint thunder, which immediately collided with the giant sword that was coming at a speed beyond dynamic vision.

The attack came extremely fast. If it weren't for the warning from the Sky Blue Ring, Leon would have no time to react.

The pitch-black sword body exploded with countless black lightning, and the crackling sound and the thunder brought by the Magic Wind Shield intertwined with each other. Matter and energy in the extraordinary realm collided with each other, and after approaching the limit, they burst together. Thunder exploded across the sky, and the spreading shock wave shook the surrounding stone ground and exploded a circle of shattering rings.

Passersby fled in panic. Some were affected by the shock wave and could not stand up, so they could only roll away from the center of the conflict.

Breaking the 7th-level elemental shield with just one sword?

Holding a high-level energy source, Leon immediately superimposed the elemental shield again and performed elemental summoning.

A wind elemental creation of Si Lingwu was generated on the spot. It roared with thunder and was extremely fast. It immediately collided with the black-armored warrior. A violent whirlwind surrounded the surface of the armor, trying to find a gap to attack the inside.

The black warrior stomped his foot on the ground, and black lightning exploded in all directions. The wind elemental creatures were shaken away and temporarily left his body.

Only then did Li Ang finish reading the soldier's information.

Li Ang summoned a strong wind to create some distance first.

56. The Path of the Sorcerer

As a spellcaster, the first thing you should do when facing a physical attack is to stay away from it.

The sky blue ring from the mysterious girl seemed to be conveying this will, and the closer it got to the black-armored knight, the hotter it became.

The black lightning released from his body was obviously the same as the special naval guns on the Imperial warships. On the panel, a term was particularly conspicuous - "Annihilator".

It pointed directly at the source of the purple substance resembling flesh and blood, which also served as the black warrior's equipment and energy core. Leon's perception told him that the knight's armor and sword shared a strange spirituality with these flesh and blood tissues and were not serious equipment.

As the panel said, this warrior was specially "created" and his combat power was not achieved through legitimate means. Otherwise, the empire has existed for so long, it is impossible that no one has heard of such a warrior.

His strange power should be very suitable for his profession and race. The Berserker is a profession that abandons defense and engages in non-stop killing. The stronger the physique and the higher the recovery ability, the stronger the combat effectiveness of this profession.

The race seemed to be deliberately chosen, because among the many races in Newbis, except for the gifted individuals, the Bullhorn Tribe was the most suitable for practicing warrior professions.

They are also called the Doraf tribe. Apart from the pair of horns on their heads, there are huge differences between their men and women.

The men are tall and strong, with muscular bodies and extraordinary strength, while the women are smaller in size, but they bear great fruits on slender branches and have sexual characteristics that are difficult to match with other races. Although they are not as strong as men, they are still better than other races and have higher explosive power.

Because of this, the black-armored Oxhorn Tribe berserker's combat power increased significantly. He had no name, born solely for slaughter. On paper, this strength was already on par with the main combat power of the Tiantuan.

However, their number will not be large. If the empire can mass-produce such warriors, the order of the sky will be rewritten.

It’s just that his appearance proves that it is not a simple matter for the empire to advance secretly after blocking the waterway.

As a villain in the early and middle stages of "Nubis Fantasy," the Holy Sporil Empire couldn't be a mere handful; elite forces would inevitably appear later. Their early appearance likely indicates that Leon's actions in breaking through the waterway blockade significantly impacted their plans, even directly disrupting the underlying plot.

It seems that Lancelot's inability to contact the headquarters was originally the work of the Empire. In the original plot of the game, he would be blocked outside all the time, while his colleagues inside were restrained by various means of the Empire.

However, they dared to take action because they didn't know that the main force of the Order Flame Corps guarding the Ignis airspace is their leader, the "Paladin" lady who is ranked in the top ten personally?

There was no time to analyze the doubts in his mind. Li Ang accelerated with the wind, and the black-armored warrior charged to catch up. Black lightning exploded around him, and extremely strange and twisted magic enveloped his whole body, forming a suspended black and purple blade.

These blades were his summons. They were thrown directly and pierced into Leon's magic shield. The magic in the black lightning cut by the blades and the thunder caused by the friction of the material world roared together, and most of the shield was reduced.

After reaching the eighth level, a strong person can basically control the matter created by magic and use it as an additional combat unit. Eden was also able to summon similar things before.

If you don't keep a distance, this close combat knife will be a deadly threat to people without advanced protective gear.

Li Ang replenished his air shield, but the black-armored warrior sank his body slightly, his black steel boots crushed the ground, and his huge body rushed forward like a cannonball. His thick arms tightly grasped the giant sword, and it was obvious that he would deliver a fatal blow the moment he got close.

If he was chopped hard, Li Ang would definitely turn into a pile of meat on the spot.

Li Ang directly launched the ultimate move.

The magic power caused the surrounding spirits to riot, mainly controlling the spirit in the Annihilation Knight.

Every piece of equipment on his body, and even he himself, contained a strange spirituality. Once affected by Leon, they immediately went into chaos. He twisted in the air, his charge momentum stagnated, and he fell to the ground, unable to walk.

"Uh, uh!"

The All-Spirit Riot can usually only delay the movements of enemies at the level of Excellence, but it is surprisingly effective against this warrior. He seems to be in great pain, and his body begins to twitch and twist without spiritual control, and he even shouts.

Judging from his helmet and the fact that he remained silent, Leon even had the illusion that he was an undead creature. Now it seemed that he could also feel pain.

The black-armored knight twisted his body, and in the gaps between his giant sword and armor, the purple tissues seemed to have turned into separate living creatures. They twisted and stretched like mollusks, jumping around everywhere, as if trying to escape from the knight's body.

This? Such a big reaction?

Is it because this power does not truly belong to him that the Turmoil of All Spirits can play such a great role?

Taking this opportunity, Leon summoned the Earth Serpent and had it launch the Gem Ray, this time choosing the water-attributed Ice State.

After the energy gem flashed at high speed, a surging ice frenzy enveloped the entire street, and the struggling black-armored knight was sprayed on the head. Broken ice and cold air filled the gaps in his armor, almost covering him and the struggling purple flesh with a layer of white frost.

The cold air flowed like a flowing flood, flowing around the corners of the streets and alleys, bringing frost to the walls and freezing the floors.

The wind elemental summon transformed its power into a magical hurricane, enveloping the knight, and countless wind blades cut continuously.

“Ugh, uh ...

The frozen black warrior raised his head and roared, huge amounts of black lightning burst out from his body. The strange magic power gathered in front of the eye pattern on the front of the helmet, and in the next moment it turned into a surging energy shock wave.

Li Ang used all his strength to drive the Holy Bell of the Wind Chaser. The Earth Serpent changed its form and followed him. The Wind Elemental Summoning turned around and transformed, carrying him into the air.

"Roar--!!"

The shock wave roared, shattering the floors and walls along the way and causing a large area of small houses in front to collapse.

Under the influence of the turmoil of all spirits and the attack of the gem rays, the Black Knight launched a secret counterattack.

If it hadn't been weakened, his ultimate move might have been even more destructive and impossible to dodge. Anyway, Leon didn't want to take it head-on.

After unleashing the shockwave, the Black Knight knelt in silence. Leon descended from the air, arriving just at the entrance to a hidden location. He didn't intend to continue fighting the creature. While his sorcerer's power could suppress it, he didn't have the means to completely destroy it.

Li Ang pushed a brick close to the ground and turned the mechanism inside. The wall turned into a revolving door and he entered.

In the darkness of the passage, the Sky Blue Ring maintained the same heat. After a while, the heat became weaker and weaker, indicating that the Black Knight had left.

Li Ang slowed down and took out the adventure lantern.

The space we are in now is part of the hidden place. The system says it is called "city mezzanine".

The two sides were made of brick and stone. Li Ang walked forward for a while and reached a downward staircase.

As he walked down the stairs, he was thinking about his career.

Now, the most core power controlled by the empire is the purple tissue that looks like flesh and blood. It can produce black lightning targeting star souls and can also cultivate the kind of high-level combat power just now.

But that substance was afraid of Leon's spiritual control.

He hadn't used the All-Spirit Turbulence to attack those naval guns before, but he had noticed some clues just now.

The sorcerer restrains the power of the empire?

Li Ang initially paid attention to the sorcerer because he thought he, as a time traveler, had discovered a loophole in the rules.

Isn't it a natural loophole for such a profession that has no one and uses magic power to interfere with spirituality instead of matter?

But after he started studying, he realized that there was a gap between what he thought and the facts.

There is such a profession as Newbis, and it does have its own uniqueness, but the reason why it is weak is also because it has lost a lot of inheritance.

No one knows what force or nation developed this profession, and no one knows why it has lost most of its heritage. The history of Newbis is too old, and many people have become accustomed to not dwelling on the lost past.

But in the end, Li Ang still chose it because even though his body was a few years younger when he traveled through time, it was still a bit late to practice other professions.

The sorcerer emphasized perception, and as long as his perception was up to par, he could gradually get on the right track. With a little practice, he found that he could make progress in this profession.

He also gradually discovered some of the irreplaceable aspects of this profession and took advantage of them.

However, other professions can find ways to learn skills or spells, but the sorcerer's inheritance is broken. In addition to basic spiritual manipulation, even the writing of spells must be experimented by themselves.

The lagging behind can be made up in the extraordinary stage, but when it comes to the outstanding stage, other professions can use magic to create things and build unique summons, which conforms to the principles of the triangle of spirit, matter and magic, but the sorcerer is different.

The sorcerer seemed to have deviated from this fundamental principle. After controlling even more powerful magic, how could they interfere with spirituality? While their magic control had reached the ninth-tier professional level, they lacked corresponding moves and skills. Instead, they consumed spellcasting materials to imitate other professions, leading to their being perceived as possessing many abilities but lacking refinement.

In order to explore the possibilities of the profession itself, Leon visited ancient tribes during his practice, talked with various shamans and witch doctors, collected spells that the sky knights didn't care much about, communicated with the elemental spirits, ancestral souls, and wilderness ghosts of these tribes, and underwent their tests and rituals.

Finally, he seemed to catch a glimmer of light in the darkness.

Those are his two major moves, the ultimate skill - the disturbance of all spirits and the seventh-level spell - spiritual activation.

Although simple, most of the time, he can play a stronger role than ordinary supports with just these two.

After what just happened, he had a feeling that the sorcerer might really be an unusual profession.

A tricky switch that can unlock ancient ruins and suppress the power behind the empire.

He decided to find time to go back to those tribes and see if the system could display more information about the professions.

After walking up the stairs, Leon arrived deep in the city's mezzanine.

57. Urban Mezzanine

After walking for a while, Li Ang understood what "mezzanine" meant.

The secret passage he was walking in had some iron windows for ventilation, through which one could see the city sewers. However, if one was in the sewers, it would be difficult to find these iron windows, and even if one did find them, one would not be able to enter the secret passage through the winding gaps.

According to the system's miniature map, he is now below the city of Spark Harbor.

The city mezzanine is just a large secret passage connecting many exits, and its real focus is the exits of those secret passages.

He came to another exit, walked up the stairs, opened the mechanism, and found that there was a cellar.

There were ice cubes everywhere, and the goods placed in them were all sugar, oil, and milk. Looking at the labels on the goods and the location on the map, he judged that this should be the cellar of the dessert shop he had eaten at before.
