Chapter 241: The Tipper of Balance, A Brilliant Performance (2/2)
“Thunder Blaze Wall!”
As Ayrin invoked his skill, terrifying arcane energy fluctuations rippled through the air around him.
“How is this possible?!”
“He has clearly only opened two arcane gates! Even if he has mastered Holy Dawn Academy’s secret skill Holy Gate of Life, he can’t possibly have this many arcane particles left!”
The eyes of all Evil Dragon Followers present abruptly widened to the extreme as a flood of densely clustered flames descended upon the area with the greatest concentration of Evil Dragon Followers.
“Barrage of Wind and Water!”
As an invocation rang out from the mouth of one of the Evil Dragon Followers, several pillars of sapphire water surged up from the ground and a violent wind picked up. The mixture of wind and water collided with the flames.
“Wait, these are not only flames!” another Evil Dragon Follower abruptly shouted as he felt something off.
“Ah!”
But they were too late as a pillar of water had already collided with the flames. Although the flames were extinguished, countless fine bolts of lightning appeared around the pillar. In the next instant, these bolts of lightning descended upon the body of the Evil Dragon Follower.
The Evil Dragon Follower twitched as his skin was blackened by electricity and he let out a wretched scream.
Puff!
In the next instant, Caelan abruptly appeared behind this Evil Dragon Follower. As he placed his hand on their back, a sharp spike of ice suddenly emerged atop their chest and they fell forwards, dead, onto the ground.
Upon seeing Caelan killing the Evil Dragon Followers under the cover provided by his Thunder Blaze Wall, Ayrin looked across the battlefield once more. He quickly realized that the two strongest remaining figures present were Zorn and Angus, who were battling it out within the golden metal cage.
“Let’s help Zorn defeat that guy wearing strange plate armor! As long as we free up Zorn, we should be able to win this battle!”
“Come here! You all who have forsaken the beliefs of arcane masters and fallen to evil, come taste my fists!” With such thoughts flashing through his mind, Ayrin let out a burning scream and charged towards the golden metal cage which surrounding Zorn and Angus.
“This fellow…”
Although Rinloran didn’t say anything, one could see his annoyance as he grit his teeth so hard that his cheeks sunk in.
Although he knew very well how unbelievable and unpredictable Ayrin’s strength was, he was still afraid. This was because every enemy arcane master here had opened at least three arcane gates – every single one of them had the ability to kill Ayrin.
“Don’t follow. Although Ayrin’s skill has temporarily suppressed the Evil Dragon Followers, they still have the advantage in numbers. Under normal circumstances, we would be finished the moment they regain their composure.”
Right as Rinloran couldn’t hold himself back any longer and prepared to charge after Ayrin to act like his shield as before, Rui’s voice suddenly rang through his ear from beside him.
“However, we have this amplifying mask made of the King Green Winged Snake’s demonic crystals. For someone of your level, it will amplify the ability of your skills by at least twenty percent… although increasing your strength will not have any effect against these enemies, increasing your speed, which is already faster than most people here, will.”
Rui put the green crystal mask over Rinloran’s face. “Only, to use this mask’s amplification, you must first awaken it by using an arcane skill… if you wish to keep fighting in your current state where both of your arms cannot be moved, you should quickly learn an arcane skill which can awaken the ability of this mask.
“Teacher Rui, hurry and teach me!” Rinloran exclaimed as he sharply inhalded and turned his head to look at Rui.
……
Bang! Bang! Bang! …
Ayrin’s heavily swollen fists successively landed on Zorn’s golden metal cage.
“Just what kind of strange bloodline does this fellow have?!”
As Ayrin’s fists collided with his cage, Zorn could feel it quickly becoming unstable and on the verge of collapse.
“Angus! You are still thinking about trying to kill him?!”
“Fullmetal Berserker!”
Seeing how Angus was distracted, Zorn knew it was his time to strike. As he roared, about half of the arcane particles within his body wildly surged out. Five gigantic axes revolving at an unbelievable speed materialized before his body and wildly hacked at Angus.
“Thousand Petal Crane Shield!”
Angus had indeed been planning to attack Ayrin with an arcane skill. However, upon seeing Zorn’s arcane skill, his expression and plans greatly changed. Three enormous black metal shields abruptly emerged around him. Upon each one, there was an image of a continuously moving crane.
Every time the axes collided with the shields, countless specks of metal dust would fly off. The crane images seemed to contain a special absorption ability, as the metal dust was quickly sucked in by them and used to maintain the metal shield.
Even under the terrifying assault of Zorn’s arcane skill, these three shields didn’t shatter.
Dong!
At this moment, a figure, which was small and skinny compared to Zorn and Angus, suddenly appeared behind Angus and threw a punch which collided with Angus’ metal shield.
“Just what kind of strange arcane energy is this?! How can it have such an eroding ability?!”
“Do you all wish to die?! Someone hurry over and come help me kill these bastards!”
Annoyed, Angus began to scream.
He too had felt the disappearance of arcane energy when Ayrin’s fist collided with his shield.
