Chapter 307 Two Victories in a Row (1/2)
The scorching heat struck Carter in his face.
Although Carter only needed half a step more to threaten Gillian with his sword, he immediately gave up the thought of striking after the young lady smacked her palms together. He abruptly withdrew his sword and rolled away to draw a distance from her.
Carter made the right decision because just as he rolled away, a one-meter tall fire wall burst out from the ground and blasted at him.
No, it wasn't a fire wall. Perhaps a ring of fire would be more appropriate. It emerged from beside her feet and whirled out. Carter was completely helpless and he had no chance to survive apart from dodging.
The cheers came to a spontaneous end.
Many stared blankly in their cheering posture. After Carter dashed out, they thought this young lady was in deep trouble. Until now, they still believed that her fireballs were an illusion.That's right, everything is an illusion and nothing can't scare me off!
But, the audience didn't use their brains at all. Couldn't one who summoned a massive amount of fireballs in the blink of an eye do that repeatedly?
Carter didn't notice it but the audience observing from above saw everything clearly. There wasn't just one fire ring, but more than one! Like ripples, they spread on the 'pond' that was in the form of this arena.
Carter retreated as he thought that the fire wall was a spell meant for defense and couldn't last long. As long as he drew a distance from her, he shouldn't be too worried at all. At the same time, Carter was also concerned that Gillian would fill the sky with fireballs again. Therefore, it was important for him to have sufficient space to dodge.
He realised that things weren't so simple. He took a few steps back, but the fire wall continued to blast forward. If it continued, he would really need to admit defeat!
Damn it!
Carter's heart sank and finally gave up retreating. If he retreated even further, he would step off the arena.
Of course, Carter didn't want to admit defeat!
Carter let out a snort and leaped over the fire wall.
At this moment, he witnessed a scene that he had never seen before.
Sss…!
In midair, he sucked in a deep breath. There wasn't just one fire wall before him, but two, three, and four. Damn it, these things are endless!
This thought flashed through his mind, but it was too late. After he leaped over the first fire wall, he landed on the second!
If he were an ordinary human, perhaps he would be frightened. He gazed at the scorching hot fire walls under him. He raised his sword, bellowed and brandished!
—!
Powerful airflow erupted from his simple, unadorned blade. Under the strong wind pressure, the fire wall instantly split in half from the middle. Carter somersaulted and stood on the ground firmly.
There's a chance!
The fire wall re-merged behind him, but this didn't turn the his mood sour because from his previous attack, he realised that even though the fire walls were huge, their threats= couldn't be compared to the fire walls summoned by other Mages in terms of strength. So then… it was worth a try!
This idea emerged in his head and the third fire wall appeared before him. This surprised the crowd because from what they observed, Carter was facing bottomless waves and there was nowhere for him to retreat. He was surrounded by scorching flames, so what else could he do?
Carter lifted his sword, snarled, and slashed!
The stream of blade air erupted all the way forward!
The fire walls were instantly split apart by the strong impact like paper. In an instant, he forcefully paved a lifeline with his sword!
