Chapter 167: Capturing the female alchemist
“Be careful!” Emily cried out in warning when she saw Han Shuo rush forward.
The courtyard was the size of a basketball court. With Han Shuo’s speed, he arrived in front of Belinda and the others almost as soon as Emily had finished talking.
But just as Han Shuo moved, Fereeca and his brothers understood what he was after and surrounded Belinda in their midst. They protected her on three sides and kept all three pairs of eyes on him, grasping their magic swords in their hands tightly.
Han Shuo chanted the spell for the “Dark Mist” lowly as he charged forward. He immediately released the spell when he appeared next to the four, enclosing everyone within it.
“Damn it, he’s a necromancer!” Fereeca cursed as the magic sword in his hand suddenly sent out brilliant crackles of lightning, lighting up the darkness around them.
Two zombie warriors and the dagger wielding little skeleton appeared within the dark mist. The three of them started attacking the three brothers at the same time under Han Shuo’s commands.
Even with the light from the lightning, absolute visibility still couldn’t be gained in the area covered by the dark mist, particularly due to the fact that it was also nighttime. As the caster, Han Shuo circled the three brothers like a ghost hidden in the darkness and was in no hurry to make his move.
The two zombie warriors were immediately hit with devastating attacks when they neared the three brothers. The one wielding the fire sword sent one of the zombie warrior’s clubs flying with one fiery stroke, engulfing the zombie warrior with flames in an instant. The other was remarkably agile with his commanded of wind magic and the speed of his flurrying strokes were too fast to be witnessed.
More than ten strokes landed on the other zombie warrior in the blink of an eye, making it lose the ability to battle in a short amount of time.
Two bone spears broke through the air at the same time aiming for Fereeca. The little skeleton brandished the bone dagger and also sped towards Fereeca.
To Fereeca, he felt that the bone spears were more of a threat than the little skeleton. When he heard the bone spears whistle towards him, he concentrated his attention on the source of the sound, flashing through the darkness like a streak of lightning and bringing them both down.
The little skeleton, who’d been moving as slowly as a regular skeletal warrior until now, suddenly picked up speed and stabbed swiftly at Fereeca’s chest.
“Be careful!” Belinda, manipulating the golem off on the side, noticed this abnormality and shrieked a warning.
Fereeca startled in a fright and didn’t defend himself in time. He immediately dodged, but a large bit of flesh was carved out of his chest and he grimaced in pain.
The Demonslayer Edge’s harsh howling suddenly sounded piercingly at this moment, displaying a heart stopping red splendor in the darkness and quickly moved between Fereeca and his brothers.
Two soft sounds broke through the air, like a wooden stick breaking through paper.
The two who had just finished off the zombie warriors hadn’t even had time to clearly see what had happened when they felt a gusty draft in their chests. They lowered their heads to see a great, bloody hole in their chests and that their blood was spurting out like arrows.
The two fell down with a thud shortly after looking down at their chests.
On the other side, Caspian discovered that the golem’s movements had suddenly become a bit stiff due to Belinda’s distraction. He immediately waved his staff and once again commanded the branches to entangle the golem.
Beneath the tree, Emily took out her staff and swiveled her gaze between the golem and Han Shuo, seeming to monitor the danger within the terrain.
“Don’t kill her, just capture her!” Emily saw that the Demonslayer Edge was howling louder and louder after having feasted on the blood of the two mage swordsman. She spoke up in reminder when she saw that moving streak of red drift closer and closer to Belinda.
