776 Snakes (2/2)

*Whoosh!* Takagi cast a spell that created a torrential amount of dark green mist, which spread throughout an incredibly large area of effect that enveloped all the enemies he could see!

This was a supremely powerful spell that was impossible to block or cleanse. Natsuya instantly decided to use a lifesaving spell she had prepared beforehand...

Dodge spell, ”Paper Substitution”!

Natsuya, Mika, Mayuzumi, and Yukari all instantly vanished, replaced by some tiny paper figures.

These paper figures were instantly corroded by the toxic mist and destroyed. Meanwhile, the four girls were all teleported outside the toxic mist's area of effect.

Takagi's expression didn't change in the slightest after discovering that his enemies had escaped his spell. He created a hand seal.

Instantly, the toxic mist started surging and heading in Natsuya and the others' direction!

Natsuya's group could only continuously retreat.

At this moment, two more members of Takagi's group arrived to help him block their retreat!

Takagi's allies weren't affected by his toxic mist. They simply had to stall Natsuya's group so that their leader's toxic mist could devour them all to obtain victory.

Right as it seemed like Natsuya's group was in a dangerous crisis, two beams of golden light attacked from the rear!

*Boom!* *Boom!*

The two men blocking Natsuya's group's path, who wore a green robe and a blue military uniform, respectively, were both hit by these super-fast golden bullets, which exploded with a brilliant light. Both men were sent flying.

Then, a person wearing white Yin Yang Master hunting attire appeared. He pointed the fan in his hand at the toxic mist, instantly creating a giant spell formation that released a blinding golden light!

The light illuminated the toxic mist and started making a buzzing sound as it swiftly started cleansing the mist!

Takagi furrowed his eyebrows at this sight.

He changed to a different hand seal which allowed him to swiftly gather and condense the remaining toxic mist. The mist then formed a gigantic snake that tried to go around the spell formation to attack!

The white-clad Yin Yang Master, or Seiji, opened up his fan and revealed the words ”dispel evil” in large lettering. He then adjusted his spell formation, changing its position so that it continued illuminating and cleansing the toxic snake.

After Takagi saw that it was impossible to go around the spell formation, he then had his toxic mist snake directly attack the spell formation!

At the same time, the green-robed man and the blue military uniform man had recovered, and were counterattacking in a pincer movement from both left and right. Both of them released a large number of black snakes!

*Shing!* Mika shot out numerous black blades to block the left side's black snakes.

*Whizz!* Yukari shot out countless spiderweb strands to tangle the right side's black snakes.

The toxic mist snake crashed into the golden spell formation. Seiji's expression didn't even flicker as he resisted the attack and swiftly cleansed the snake.

Natsuya speedily uttered an incantation and created a seal to cast a powerful spell...

Destruction curse, ”Infinite Blades”!

A triangular spell formation appeared from which numerous red spiritual blades shot out. The red spiritual blades descended like a rainstorm upon the right side's blue military uniform man!

This man wanted to retreat, but he suddenly felt his feet being stuck on the ground. Only then did he discover that his legs had been tangled up in invisible spiderweb without his realizing it!

At this moment, Natsuya's ”Infinite Blades” spell enveloped him!

Takagi furrowed his eyebrows even further.

At this moment, the blue military uniform man suddenly shattered and transformed into mist, which then disappeared.

He died just like that?

Both Natsuya and Yukari were rather surprised by this.

Something flashed in Seiji's eyes as he also noticed this.

By now, Seiji had finished cleansing the toxic mist snake. The left side's green-robed man saw that the situation wasn't going well, so he swiftly retreated.

Seiji looked across and exchanged glances with the man wearing a black jacket. Although Seiji didn't know this, this man was Heikai Takagi, the leader of the assault forces sent to the temple where Chiaki was performing the ritual.

*Bam!* Hisashi was viciously struck by a dark red longsword and sent flying backwards at a high speed.

”Hisashi-san…” Hoshi couldn't help but call out upon witnessing this scene.

”You should be paying attention to me instead, young man~” a female voice spoke right by his side.

'Damn it…' Hoshi tried to dodge, but he was too late.

A woman wearing a bright red dress suddenly struck with her powerful whip at a close distance, instantly destroying Hoshi's personal barrier and reaching right next to him. A spell on the whip then restrained Hoshi!

”Wah…” Hoshi felt his entire body going numb and pained all over.
