Chapter 1012: 315. Escape Master?_2
He was Hickman Arlington.
After coalescing from eight groups of shadow into a human form, his flying speed remained constant, but he now had far more means to counter his enemies.
He drew a black magic wand wrapped in bandages, swiftly tracing magical runes while muttering an incantation, invoking some sort of magic curse.
The shadowy magic runes, brimming with dark energy, exploded the moment they took shape, creating several black discs suspended in midair.
These black discs hovered vertically, as though they were teleportation gates made of spells.
Some kind of segmented shadow demon stretched out from the black discs, lunging at the incoming tracking thunder arrow.
The segmented shadow demons, resembling black centipedes with their surfaces covered in ring-shaped segments and their bellies adorned with many slender black legs.
From each black disc, five meters in diameter, emerged one such frightening segmented shadow demon.
Their heads were as large as those of a steam train’s and not only were they hard and dark but they also sprayed thick shadow fumes as they moved.
The heads of the segmented shadow demons collided with the tracking thunder arrows, causing a massive, earth-shattering boom.
Electric snakes darted all around, and the shadow fumes churned violently.
As they struggled against each other, the thunder energy was rapidly dissolved by the shadow fumes,
The segmented shadow demons had blocked the tracking thunder arrows for Hickman Arlington.
Moreover, the shadow fumes sprayed from the heads of the monsters also formed a wall of fumes, cutting off the path of the tracking thunder arrows.
Hickman Arlington laughed madly and accelerated towards the City of Exiles.
“Hahaha! Have fun playing with my little treasures!!”
Behind Hickman Arlington, the segmented shadow demons had fully emerged from the black discs, revealing their full terrifying size.
They were over 200 meters long, akin to centipedes enlarged a hundred times.
Though they had many black legs, they could fly and moved at incredible speeds.
The segmented shadow demons agilely navigated through the stalagmites, frantically spraying shadow fumes to thicken the wall of fumes and meet more and more tracking thunder arrows.
Hickman Arlington glanced back to confirm that all his summoned creatures had blocked every tracking thunder arrow.
His smirk was full of cunning and triumph as he laughed.
“You’re done for, Thunder Wizard! I know where you cast those thunder arrows from! The next time we meet, it will be your end!!”
Hickman Arlington flew forward while laughing.
“Ka ka ka…”
A faint cracking sound came from beneath his magic robe.
Hickman Arlington’s complexion underwent a drastic change, turning from translucent gray to deathly pale in an instant.
He suddenly raised his hand and clutched the Mental Protection Pendant hanging in front of his chest.
“Damn!”
In Hickman Arlington’s palm, the Mental Protection Pendant, which was only of high-grade standard and near total ruin, was about to shatter into dozens of pieces in another three to five seconds.
Hickman Arlington’s Mental Protection Pendant was of high-grade quality, not of Saint Tier.
It couldn’t automatically repair damage or restore the shield value of the Mental Shield!
Shadow creatures inherently possess the “Shadow Psychic Backlash” feature.
