Chapter 274 "Second" Kill (Ask for Recommendation Votes)
The moonlight was cold and hazy, and after penetrating the curtains, it became extremely faint, which not only failed to eliminate the darkness in Lucian's room, but brought inexplicable gloom.
The darkness of different shades changed with the change of light, and at first glance it seemed to wriggle like life, but if you look closely, it is so gloomy and quiet, it seems to remain unchanged through the ages.
In such darkness, Lucian lying on the bed let out a slow and long breath, making the atmosphere of the whole room more peaceful and soft, bringing people a pleasant feeling of being in a good dream.
"From the dark, he was indeed lying in bed......
"The two long swords are placed on both sides of the bed, ten centimeters away from the hand, very vigilant......"
"Breathing is normal, heartbeat is normal, mental fluctuations are normal, but the hands are pressed by the body or quilt, making it difficult to examine carefully...... The sleeping position is really ugly, and there is no so-called aristocratic elegance at all...... But this is fine, it will delay the speed at which he picks up the enchanted longsword after reacting for about a second, which may be a second of his life and death......"
"He slept very deeply, maybe the knights and great knights patrolling and guarding the Withered Castle gave him a sense of security......"
"The amulet is still worn on the chest, and according to intelligence, it activates quickly, but the anti-death barrier only targets instant death and cursed magic, and cannot defend against physical and elemental attacks, nor can it cause damage to the attacker......"
"And it's not a high-level item, it can't be triggered by stress, this magic talisman and other magic items that may exist on Peter's body can't work before I kill him......"
"There is a 99% certainty that you will send him to hell before he wakes up!"
After careful observation, Petrov made a preliminary judgment and made up his mind.
In the calm darkness beside Lucian's bed, a figure suddenly appeared, and he seemed to be directly separated from the darkness, highlighting it without warning!
This figure took a step forward, dragged out the afterimage, and in his right hand he held a dagger with a dark green light as rich as liquid, and slashed fiercely at Lucian's throat!
Just now, Petrov didn't dare to get too close or have any killing intent, just because he was worried that it would trigger Lucian's dangerous intuition and make things difficult to change. Although even if Lucian has a level three or four magic longsword and a level four or five magic items, Petrov is not afraid, the powerful ability brought by the dark blood can allow him to easily consume the magic power and then easily slaughter the lamb in front of him, but the only problem is that if the magic power is level five, it is likely to break Matvi's magic to cover up movements and let the great knights in the castle notice, so that things will become quite troublesome.
The terrifying speed made Petrov instantly approach Lucian, and the short blade swung from his right hand fell just right at this time, slashing at Lucian's neck as he was sleeping on his side without any deviation.
But just as the dagger slashed Lucian's neck, Petrov suddenly felt a mysterious fluctuation, it was so familiar, and it was so terrifying on such an occasion!
Petrov was stunned to see Lucian under the dagger shattered like a mirror, cracking into countless pieces.
Two-ring magic "Mirror Shadow Technique"!
Although Darkblood is immune to magic below its level, it only refers to defense, and its attack is also interfered with by some magic.
The flying "mirror" fragments shimmered in the darkness, giving Petrov a dreamy beauty.
"Magician?! Not good!" After Petrov hit the mirror image with a sword, he quickly came back to his senses and understood that his intelligence was wrong, and all judgments were wrong! So his body quickly blurred and blackened, and he hurried back without hesitation!
But it was this short moment of astonishment that made him slow down a little, and saw a divine and solemn light on Lucian's chest, which was half a bed away from the mirror shadow.
Immediately afterwards, the entire room was filled with the vast sacred scorching brightness.
And in this incandescent light, the black figure stood out, as if it had been neutralized by the holy light.
Level 3 Divine Technique "Scorching Radiance"! AoE attack!
Petrov endured the pain, did not howl, and dodged with difficulty, but he was directly shrouded in the scorching light, as if he was in a quagmire, and as if he was carrying thousands of pounds, moving very slowly.
Without hesitation, Petrov inspired the magic ring worn on the tail finger of his left hand.
But the pale black light of the magic ring had just bloomed, and Lucian's spirit moving on the bed was directly an "elemental order"!
Crackle, boom!
The magic ring first made a shattering sound, and then the magical power in the excitation lost its stability, and it exploded in a dull but terrifying way, completely enveloping Petrof, who had not yet completed the darkness, and blew up his light brown blood splattering everywhere.
With Lucian's excellent mental strength among the current three-ring magicians, "Elemental Order" can destroy most of the alchemy items of level four without protection such as energy and force fields!
No wonder the Nine Rings Great Cracking Technique has the title of "Crying Both Enemy and I", because once it is used, almost all the magic items and magic items below the legend on the enemy are destroyed, even if the enemy is killed, there is nothing to gain, and it is annoying to look at the originally extremely precious broken items.
And this is an area-of-effect magic that does not distinguish between friend and foe, if there are teammates standing next to it...... Therefore, Lucian's "elemental order" is much more "conscience".
Seeing Petrov trying to change the darkness in the explosion, Lucian didn't give him a chance, and the "Crown of the Sun" amulet on his chest lit up with a soft and divine light again, and a flame that seemed to fall from the sky hit Petrov directly.
Petrof, who had just used the most forbidden and powerful ability of the Dark Bloodline, "Dark Assimilation", had just gotten rid of most of the effects of the "Scorching Radiance", but he could only despair to see the flame holy light completely enveloping himself like a divine punishment from heaven.
In the flame light of "Flame Strike", Petrov's darkened body quickly dissolved and quickly disappeared!
Oh! His unwilling emotions were so strong that they seemed to echo in the room with silent screams!
Most of Petrov's Dark Bloodline's abilities have not yet been revealed, such as "Dark Corrosion", "Dark Assimilation" and other types of spells, what speed, strength, agility, balance, will, etc. are comprehensively improved in the darkness, what is immune to many supernatural effects, and what is immune to magic and magic below the level.
How can he be willing to do this?!
With a sound, the third-level magic dagger damaged by the flame strike technique fell on the thick carpet, making a dull sound.
With the stimulation of the fifth-level divine technique "Flame Strike", the fluctuation of divine power in the entire room reached an extreme, but it was still barely able to break through the invisible curtain, failing to alarm the great knights and knights in the Withered Castle as Lucian best expected.
Since Lucian's divine magic items were expected to be four or five levels, Matvi naturally did not carelessly arrange the magic circle that hid the movement according to the standard of the fifth level!
The difficulty of maintaining the invisible veil, and the astonishment caused by Lucian's defeat in just a few seconds as a magician, made it difficult for Matvi to remain invisible, and a figure appeared in mid-air outside Lucian's window, in Ivanovsky's room.
At this time, Lucian, who had passed the spellcasting buffer, turned his head to look out the window without hesitation, his eyes flashed with deep light, and the mental force field locked on Matvi in the air outside!
As early as when they began to monitor and probe, Lucian, who was prepared, discovered their actions!
Invisible fluctuations occurred, and Matvey, who had blessed himself with "mechanized mind" and "spiritual armor technique" before acting, suddenly saw the transparent armor that could protect the soul from being attacked to a certain extent shattered silently.
After a brief affection for Lucian, he quickly woke up, but his soul still tingled slightly, causing a slight dizziness and difficulty concentrating.
"This is a charming human? Why is the impact on the soul so strong?!" Matvi has a layer of defense that counteracts most of the effects of charming humans, so the stun of the soul is not serious, even if the mental power cannot activate the spell model in the body for the time being, but magic items can still be used.
So he stimulated his magic boots firmly and without hesitation, and before Lucian's second magic could be cast, a flicker disappeared in place.
However, he vaguely sensed Petrov's fate and understood that if he was not careful, there would be a violent storm behind him, making it difficult for people to free up their hands until death, and they had to dodge it first, so they immediately used the three-ring magic "Short Range Teleportation" that came with the magic item!
Lucian, who was in a spellcasting buffer, could not use the "Elemental Order" to destroy the magic items used by Matvi at this time, but he calmly inspired the "Elemental" ring with a lot of powerful equipment.
Outside the window, a dark yellow-green mist appeared out of thin air, enveloping the mid-air outside the more than sixty rooms on the upper and lower floors.
In the mist, several tall dark green coniferous trees planted in the castle courtyard immediately withered yellow and mottled, and the insects hidden inside fell straight to the ground one by one, rapidly rotting...... It was as if no life could survive in this fog.
This is the five-ring magic, this is "Gaston's poisonous mist"! Without defense, even if you breathe a little mist, you will be poisoned and die!
The teleported Matvi could not cross such a wide range, and when he flashed into the air, there was still a yellow-green mist around him.
As a magician, Matvi was fully wary of the fog-like mist, holding his breath on the spot and then casting the spell "Air Filter Bubble" within his soul.
It is prepared to stabilize first and then use "Dispel Smoke" to dispel the yellow-green mist, after all, it takes a certain amount of time to completely dissipate!
But what made him panic was that his second ring magic air filter bubble was stained with color little by little in the yellow-green mist, and it could not be completely filtered and removed from this highly toxic mist.
"This is the magic of the five rings? Bastard, how many mid-level magic items does this damn guy have?!" Matvi understands the limits of the "air filter bubble", which can only deal with toxins produced by magic below the four rings. So, I immediately knew the horror of the fog around me, and at the same time, I couldn't believe and hated Lucian, who had so many powerful magic items!
He believes that this is the root cause of his own restraint and impending failure.
And at this time, a situation that stunned Matvi happened, and his skin began to fester without warning!
This highly toxic mist of the five rings could slowly penetrate into the body through skin contact, and it could actually penetrate the "Protective Energy Damage" magic without any hindrance!
"Is it a unique magic?!"
Matvey's brain was a little blurry, but the penetrating fog effect was not as good as direct breathing, so he had experienced many dangers, so he forcibly kept his calm and began to activate a transformation magic "Vaporization Body" attached to the magic robe!
As long as this magic is used, he will vaporize into a virtual body, temporarily freeing himself from the erosion of the poisonous mist, but again, as an empty body, he cannot cast spells normally and can only fly.
But Lucian couldn't get his wish, the "Elemental Order" was activated again, and the light of Matvi's magic robe dimmed as soon as it flashed, and countless holes appeared!
"What kind of magic is this?" Matvey, whose body quickly turned into pus, flashed his last thought.
Exactly five seconds have passed since the cast of the charm human.
At this moment, a large hand turned into a force field suddenly appeared, trying to grab Matvi as he fell down.
At the same time, the unforeseen gust of wind completely dispersed the yellow-green mist, returning the castle to its original state in mid-air. Then, a figure flew out of Count Wert's room with an angry expression, as if angry that he had not been able to save Matvi in time.
Its aura was fully revealed, like the sea when a storm came.
His hair is gray and his wrinkles are deep, and he is actually Count Werther's housekeeper Semyon!
"High-level magician?!"
Lucian was stunned to discover this terrifying fact.
