Chapter 425: Showdown! Evil Six! Maelstrom! (2/2)
“Rinloran, treat yourself first. The wound on your cheek may leave a scar.” Chris noticed the menacing wound on Rinloran’s cheek and suggested.
“It’s fine......” Rinloran took a look at everyone. Although everyone was heavily injured, they properly survived. His heart was filled with a mysterious warmth and gratitude. He heaved a sigh of relief and lightly shook his head, “Even if it left a scar, it’s the honor of an arcane master...... And nobody will say that I look like a girl anymore, right?”
“I wonder where Teacher Liszt and the other teachers went...... By now, they probably already encountered the Maelstrom Team?” Ayrin was satisfied after officially opening his fourth gate. He laid face-up on the ground without any manners to recover stamina and watch the sky. He then murmured, “I hope they mean it when they said that they can handle the Maelstrom Team. They better not lie to us...... and go for a suicide attack......”
“What!? The Holy Dawn Evil Six is already going after the Maelstrom Team?”
Wurinland and Leyu were shocked after coincidentally overhearing Ayrin’s muttering.
......
House Eclipse Moon’s fog-shrouded camp.
Jano and Christine nervously stood before the old shaman.
“Chief shaman, even Baratheon’s arcane teams have retreated. Ayrin’s team must have been discovered, why are we still not doing anything!?” Jano anxiously asked the old shaman.
The wrinkle-filled old shaman shook his head, his eyes gleamed with wisdom.
He pointed at a tall figure within the camp.
That tall figure was the semi-zombie monster Ayrin had created with necromancy skill by fusing the twin-head oceanic monster and Goat Horn Team’s Ingit.
“What do you mean?”
Jano and Christine could not understand why the old shaman pointed at the semi-zombie monster.
“That’s one of the strongest necromancy skills during the Magus Era. This arcane skill can fuse a dying monster and a dead arcane master, becoming a new semi-zombie monster. Apart from absolute obedience to the caster, there is another trait for the semi-zombie monster created with this skill: Once its master died, the arcane structure will completely collapse and the semi-zombie monster will die immediately.” The old shaman watched Jano and Christine, then grinned, “This semi-zombie monster is still standing here, meaning that Ayrin is still alive. By now, if no arcane team had surrounded and killed Ayrin and the others, they would have succeeded in escaping Roland’s encirclement...... It would be useless even if those Baratheon teams go back. You should know that Roland has an arcane team even stronger than these Baratheon elite teams.”
“Do you mean the Blood Shadow Team?” Jano and Christine completely changed their expressions.
“If they haven’t been killed by now...... That means even the Blood Shadow Team wasn’t a match.” The old shaman nodded, and a mysterious glow flashed across his eyes.
......
Four arcane masters dashed through a plain.
Before them was a primeval forest. It was the edge of House Eclipse Moon’s Hunting Forest.
The presence of those four arcane masters synchronized into a mysterious rhythm. That rhythm became a wind current surrounding them and propelling them forward. It allowed them to gain faster movement speed using less stamina.
The four arcane masters looked around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. Their average height was 1.75 meters, with a balanced build.
Three of them greatly resemble Rinsyi’s face, with magenta-colored hair and yellowish storm pupils. Meanwhile, the last one had red and blue heterochromatic eyes.
Those four were members of the strongest team of House Baratheon feared by countless others, the Maelstrom Team!
“Hmm?”
All of a sudden, their gaze flickered and they stopped moving.
A strong gust of wind suddenly swept up on the calm plain around them.
Countless withered grass was snapped by the wind. Amongst the dust and withered grass, five silhouettes with unequal heights slowly appeared.
The four Maelstrom Team members narrowed their eyes and showed cold killing intent.
