838 Eternal Control Part 1 (1/2)

Water puppet looked at the young sorcerer and analyzed them carefully. The opponent was only twenty yards away. If they were ten yards closer, it would be able to kill him with one finger.

It had no idea how agile the sorcerer was. If possible, it was still better to use a magic staff.

The sorcerer saw what looked like Saleen looking at him without any fear. He raised the magic staff in his hands and pointed ahead, unleashing the grade-9 spell stored in it, which was the Vacuum Imprisonment spell.

A huge bubble appeared from the surface of the water puppet's body, keeping Vacuum Imprisonment away. After Saleen had advanced into a grade-8 sorcerer, his water shield evolved as well. His water shield had become a grade-7 spell even though its appearance was still the same.

Grade-7 water shield could only keep Vacuum Imprisonment out for up to three seconds at most before it would be erased by the grade-9 spell.

Three seconds was too long for a mage. To a water puppet, it was just enough for him to take out a new magic staff and cast a grade-9 spell.

With a clap, the bubble broke and the water puppet cast a grade-9 spell, Ice Storm.

Above the sea, there was unlimited water elements. Ice Storm triggered the water elements, and then the space around the water puppet was filled with water elements that were still growing.

There were huge ice crystals amidst the wind and the damage that each of them could cause far surpassed ordinary alchemy crossbows. Vacuum Imprisonment was a powerful restraining spell that could last for a significant period of time, but compared to Ice Storm, which was of the same grade, the former was full of loopholes.

The water puppet calmly ducked through the loopholes of Vacuum Imprisonment and appeared right in front of the sorcerer. The magic staff in his hands shone and the same grade-9 Vacuum Imprisonment spell captured the sorcerer. A layer of blue on the sorcerer's black magic robe shimmered and his face revealed a smile of ridicule.

Wind-element spells were his specialty, it was laughable that his opponent was trying to use Vacuum Imprisonment against him. His finger was not affected by the spell at all and pointed forward. A beam of white wind elements changed into the form of a thin needle and pierced through Vacuum Imprisonment, aiming towards the water puppet's abdomen.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

Water puppet smiled deviously as well. They were eight yards apart. He pointed his finger forward as well. A white beam of magic light lit up and the sorcerer's smile froze on his face.

A gust of unstoppable power shot out from water puppet's finger. Water elements seemed to have been compressed thousands of times before vibrating and shooting into the sorcerer's brain.

Blood shot into the sky as the sorcerer's brain was crushed by crystal finger. In the end, the grade-9 sorcerer still could not figure out how his opponent, a grade-8 sorcerer, was able to cast a spell that could penetrate through his defense. After all, his equipment had provided him with a grade-9 defense, which was Crystal Maze.

The water puppet's abdomen was pierced through by the needle formed by wind elements, creating a hole that was bigger than a plate. The air current formed by wind elements spun violently. The attack, that was in the form of a needle, caused more damage than a magic alchemy crossbow.

The water puppet held onto some pieces of dragonshard, and after a few breaths, the wound in his abdomen had already recovered. His finger has already broken off and the crystal ring was barely dangling on what was left.

Water puppet switched the ring onto his right hand and dashed forward to snatch the sorcerer's corpse before throwing it into the leather bag on his waist.

Saleen witnessed the entire battle and felt a tinge of regret. The water puppet was still not well-repaired, and its intellect was still lacking. Its estimation was far from his own. The enemy was only a grade-9 mage, so there was no need to use crystal finger at such a high-level.

The counter reaction force of crystal finger was not something that could be repaired with dragonshards. For at least a week, the water puppet would be without its finger.

Another issue was that, while the incredible power of crystal finger was undoubtable, its attacking range was too short. A range of more than ten yards would severely reduce crystal finger into an ordinary spell. The spell was meaningless if the enemy was not close enough. It was best if no one knew of the existence of crystal finger, but the moment it was known, it would be close to impossible to surprise enemies with it in the future.

Grade-9 opponents could generally move fast, so if their intention was to increase the distance between themselves and Saleen and water puppet, it would have been difficult for the latter to do anything about it. In the midst of the chase, the enemy could easily counter their attack.

In a narrow and enclosed environment, crystal finger was still a good option.

Saleen thought about it and gave water puppet a command to converge with Nailisi.

The top three levels on the ancient combat vessel should already have been occupied by people who were also controlling the core motor. Nailisi rushed towards the core motor. Once she killed the people controlling it, this vessel would more or less be under her control.

The water puppet turned around and led the spirits of the dead to the front of the combat vessel.

Nailisi and the water puppet were two powerful beings that left a trail of destruction behind them. The water puppet cast grade-8 and grade-9 spells without any hesitation while Nailisi, after transforming into three-faced bone demon, could inflict powerful damages and could create even more spirits to become her cannon fodder.
