250 Brazier (2/2)

The two sorcerers who were good at offensive spells cleared the path and Lucien could travel at full speed without casting any extra spells. Lucien had the chance to focus on checking the surroundings, so he could react as soon as possible to any potential threats.

That was usually how the sorcerers fought during intense battles.

Although the hallway was long, the sorcerers were traveling so fast that they reached the end quickly. The pale arms, dead arms, and the bloody tongues were getting stronger and stronger. Some of them passed through the flame wall and the Burning Sun, landing on the sorcerers' bodies. Those hands and tongues almost broke through their defenses. It meant that the monster would be revived soon.

The arms on the ground slowed down the sorcerers greatly and the arms almost formed a forest by the corners.

Lucien quickly created a large fireball and released it. The fireball went over the sorcerers in front of him and landed on the ground.

*Bam*

The noise was loud in the narrow space of the hallway and the shockwave blew a lot of arms away. The doors on the walls were also destroyed, and numerous cracks and holes were left on the ground.

Half of the forest made of arms was destroyed, and Charlie, Sandra, and Susan passed through it easily as the rest of the arms were no longer a problem. However, a lot of arms spurted out of the ground again when Lucien tried to pass through.

Lucien changed the rotating trail of the eight light spheres over his head. Two of them crashed into two other, as if they were trying to change their destiny. The four light spheres quickly disappeared into the air after crashing into each other.

Lucien walked to the corner after making changes to the spell, Maskelyne's Star. The translucent arms and the bloody arms reached out to him but they were centimeters away from contacting Lucien's body. Some of the arms grabbed each other after missing the target.

Such situation only happened several times when they were running through the hallway but it was happening all the time at the moment.

It was one way to use the Maskelyne's Star. The target would lose its luck and it would not be able to do anything after its destiny was changed by the stars.

One second later, the arms returned to normal but Lucien was already past the corner. He saw that Charlie's defensive force field palm perished in the air and the absorbing wall reached its limit. Four of the energy orbs above Sandra's head also broke into pieces.

There were no longer arms reaching out of the walls and the door of the binding room was not visible to them. Instead, enormous eyes formed a giant wall that blocked the path. Their black eyeballs and white pupils were everywhere. They were like the messenger that brought the desperation to this world.

Lucien felt like his soul turned black after being stared at by those eyes, he felt that he was losing himself in the abyss. The Maskelyne's Star above his head extinguished right away and the crystal orbs dropped to the ground after losing their color. The Powerful Fire Shield was fading away and the rotating divine runes of the Death Ward appeared in the air.

Suddenly, a thin layer of pure light appeared on Sandra's body. Rays of light were released by her and the rays flew toward the Wall of Evil Eyes like fireworks.

It was a fourth circle spell named Arcana Light. The spell was created based on the level four divine spell named Light from the Heavenly Mountain. Although Arcana Light was not infused with the mysterious power of a divine spell, it could still be used to eliminate evil creatures.

Lucien activated Sun's Corona at the same time and holy light landed on the Wall of Evil Eyes. The twisted eyes were purified in the light one by one.

Level three divine spell – Burning Radiance.

Meanwhile, Charlie created a clear mirror in front of the Wall of Evil Eyes and forced the eyes to stare at themselves. It was a second circle force field spell named Staring, that was designed for the staring attacks.

The mirror broke into pieces under the pressure, but at the same time the evil eyes exploded one by one. Black liquid splashed onto the ground and it sounded like metal being corroded. The rest of the eyes were perishing in the light from the Burning Radiance and Arcana Light.

When the situation was complicated, low-level spells might be more effective than the high-level ones.

The Wall of Evil Eyes fell down without making any noise, revealing the door to the binding room.

A fireball was released from Charlie's white gloves, it blew the door and the wall into pieces. The sorcerers finally had the chance to see what the room looked like.

There was a normal-looking magic circle in the binding room, but there were dead bodies lining up on the end of each string. Blood that dripped down from the dead bodies was transferred to the core of the magic circle through the strings.

In the center of the magic circle, there was a brazier containing dark flames, but it looked like a common, kitchen brazier. From within the flames, a body covered with a luxurious long black robe was rising, with its two skinny pale hands placed on the borders of the brazier to push its body upward.

The skull with a thin layer of rotten meat and a pair of bloody red eyes was staring at Charlie, who was the closest to the door. The expression on the skull's face did not look as if it was anxious, angry, or threatening. It was simply a strange mocking smile.
