Sanctuary Paradise

Chapter 435: Clash between Wizards
Pitch-black clouds gathered from the sky above the battlefield, and blue-purple thunder and red meteorite fire fell from it, bombarding the ruins, adding a sense of oppression to the battlefield.

And in the center of the roaring battlefield, an obscure whisper came from the mouth of the arcane mage, and spread to the entire battlefield under the stimulation of the magic power in his body.

"Στοιχεα, ακοστετιεν τολμου."

"Καταιγδα, κεραυν, κυριαρχονγιαμνα."

A series of mysterious whispers rang out from the battlefield. As the arcane mage spoke, the half-colored and half-grayish-white book cover in his hand, which looked like it had been sewn together, suddenly burst into dazzling blue-purple light.

Rumble——! !

A huge amount of wind and lightning elements gushed out from it, causing a huge storm around the arcane mage. In the storm, tens of thousands of blue-purple lightning snakes swam wildly, tearing apart everything caught in the storm.

This is……

In mid-air, Ling Yuzi, who was controlling Xin Lailai's body, looked at the scene in front of him. While listening to the chanting of the arcane mage, he used his psychic field to sense the elemental phenomena caused by the other party. His gaze moved slightly, and a serious look flashed in his eyes.

"Just as Lai Lai said, this guy really inherited the heritage of the arcane faction."

Although they did not know the chant used by the arcane mages, Kagus had told them about this chanting method more than once in the past. It was none other than the extremely famous "Magic Element Chanting Method" of the elemental faction within the Arcane Eternal Star!
This kind of chanting is different from all their regular chanting. Normal chanting can actually be regarded as a contract signed with the elements. In essence, it uses the spell model as a communication channel and mana or magic power as salary, asking the elements to help them achieve a certain goal.

However, the 'Magic Element Chanting' in Arcane Eternal is completely different. This chanting method does not require any friendly connection with the elements. Instead, it directly uses its own magic power as a fulcrum to forcibly control the elements swallowed by itself and use the method of permanently consuming itself to cause various phenomena, causing elemental damage to the enemy that can ignore various defense judgments and resistance judgments, which is equivalent to true damage in the spell system. It is overbearing and powerful.

"Ling Yuzi, can you hold him off? If not, just enter the spirit fusion state, find a way to trick him into moving in space, and kill him with Nirvana in the secondary space!"

"No problem. Although it is troublesome, his theoretical knowledge does not seem to be well understood."

In the soul space, Xin Lailai's voice sounded in Ling Yuzi's mind. Hearing this, Ling Yuzi shook his head slightly in his heart, indicating that he could handle the situation at hand.

"Well, I'll leave the arcane mage to you. I'll finish this as soon as possible. If the arcane mage really inherited the arcane system, he probably has a lot of life-saving methods. I guess you can only defeat him with spells at best. If you want to kill him, you still have to rely on Nirvana."

"Yes, I understand. It's the same with you, Lailai."

Ling Yuzi nodded slightly and answered in his mind, then controlled the body of "Black Sword" to raise his head and looked at the arcane mage in mid-air. He squinted his eyes, and his pupils reflected the scene of wind and thunder beside the arcane mage. A lot of spell information about the arcane faction flashed through his mind.

The dual elements of wind and thunder, the magic element chanting method, and the phenomenon of storms and thunder snakes...

Features began to be extracted in Ling Yuzi's mind one by one and were quickly matched with the database in her mind. Half a second later, her eyes moved and a sharp look flashed in them.

There is no doubt that this guy is using the third-tier elemental spell from the Arcane Eternal Elemental faction, which is based on the cutting characteristics of the wind element and the annihilation characteristics of the thunder element. It can cause a large amount of wind and thunder elemental damage to the enemy - Thunder and Wind Meteorite!
That being the case...

Got it, use this magic to deal with him!
A large number of thoughts flashed through Ling Yuzi's mind, and finally stopped at the words of a certain magic chant. In just a short moment, Ling Yuzi had made a judgment and thought of measures to deal with the arcane mage's move.

Then, she quickly constructed a complex and sophisticated spell model in her mind, and at the same time controlled Xin Lailai's body to open her mouth and chanted quickly:
"The rock is the sky, the earth is the ground, and listen to the chant of the 75,654 dead souls..."

A solemn and loud hymn came from the black-haired young man's mouth, and the wings behind him folded silently. The huge black sword in his hand also switched from the divine machine form to the twin form at some point.

At the same time, one could sense a powerful mental force spreading out undisguisedly, covering the entire Vatican and interfering with the magic and mana floating on the battlefield.

Buzz, rumble—! !

A series of roars began to sound, and the ground of the entire battlefield began to tremble. A large amount of earth elements began to gather from outside and on the battlefield, giving the originally gray ruins a yellowish-brown halo that was full of heaviness and calmness.

"This is the soil for the coffin, this is the place to go."

"Σκσε, κψεκαιδσε!"

"This is a burial place, this is a secluded city."

"Κατβαση, συντριβ, καταστροφ!"

“Therefore, we should pray to his true name.”

"Σφαγ, καταστροφ!"

"Its name is——"

"Σανεχθρμου——"

"Kroberg!"

"Μετεωρτηκαταιγδα!"

On the battlefield, two completely different chants were completed almost at the same time. The arcane mage in the storm frowned slightly when he saw this scene, but did not say anything. Instead, he decisively controlled the completed elemental spell and cast it towards the black-haired young man.

Rumble——! !

In an instant, a deafening roar of thunder exploded from the battlefield, and a huge hurricane hundreds of meters high rose from the ground, entangled by tens of thousands of thunders, rushing towards the direction of the black-haired young man.

Looking around, one can see that the ruins and wreckage throughout the Vatican are beginning to uncontrollably converge towards the center of the hurricane. Not only that, as the hurricane moves forward, its volume is clearly increasing.

[Tip: You are under the [traction effect], and will continue to move closer to the designated area during the effect! ]

"Fuck, is this so outrageous?!"

At the edge of the battlefield, Blood Prison suddenly realized that his body was being pulled away by the terrifying attraction. He glanced at the prompts at the edge of his vision, his face changed slightly, and without caring about anything else, he continued to flee in a farther direction.

As for Sylvie? She had disappeared when the arcane mage and the black sword were halfway through chanting. It was obvious that she had anticipated how horrific the collision that was about to happen would be.

On the battlefield, the black-haired young man, who was about to be swallowed by the storm, fell back to the ground and plunged his sword into the ground, using this method to stabilize his body and prevent himself from being swallowed by the storm in advance. Elemental spells are different from regular spells. The elemental phenomena they cause are not based on physics or energy, but directly produce designated phenomena according to their corresponding concepts.

In other words, if the pulling effect of ordinary wind spells is merely caused by air pressure and other unexpected factors, then the pulling effect of elemental spells is like imposing a conceptual debuff called "Pull" on all units within its range and can ignore various defensive measures such as energy barriers.

This is also the reason why they became so serious after confirming that the other party was indeed the inheritor of the arcane system.

If it were an ordinary wizard, they could kill the opponent instantly with just a wave of their hands, because it would be impossible for the opponent to seize the command of the elements due to the huge gap in elemental affinity.

However, when facing the mages of the arcane faction, since the opponent does not control the elements by elemental affinity, the advantage brought by their high elemental affinity becomes very weak.

The fact that they don't need to look at the elements' faces is actually enough to prove how huge the advantage of arcane mages is over mages from ordinary schools.

Not to mention that the opponent also has the advantage that the damage caused is elemental damage close to true damage rather than ordinary attribute damage, and that they can gain amazing attribute damage resistance by devouring elements, and because they can directly call on elements, the threshold for releasing spells across levels becomes very low, which further narrows the gap between arcane mages and them.

In addition, although they can release large-scale fourth-tier magic, since the Hellsing world is only a second-tier and semi-open world, the fourth-tier magic will be forcibly suppressed to the third-tier level, resulting in the fourth-tier magic they release in the Hellsing world being only slightly stronger than the third-tier magic.

Therefore, if they rely solely on spells, they will undoubtedly lose to the arcane mage.

This is beyond doubt. On one side is ordinary magic that can only cause attribute damage, can only trigger various physical phenomena, and is subject to the constraints of physical laws. On the other side is elemental spells that directly use the power of elements and can ignore the laws of physics to directly achieve certain results. In terms of strength, the two are not at the same level at all.

——And the scene before us indeed proves this point.

Boom——! !

A huge roar exploded from the ground of the battlefield.

At a glance, one can see vertical black-brown earth spikes nearly fifty meters high rushing out of the ground, piecing together to form solid walls, turning into coffin-like shapes, relying on continuous regeneration to withstand the bombardment of storms and thunder, and there is a tendency for them to collapse.

"The Sealing Coffin? You actually used this functional fourth-tier defensive spell to deal with me in a second-tier semi-open world. Should I say you are arrogant? Or ignorant?"

In the sky, the arcane mage looked down at the black-haired young man who was trapped in the storm and relying on the continuously regenerating dark brown rock spikes to resist his spells. A sneer appeared on his face, and he said in a playful tone:
"It seems that the rumored black sword is not as powerful as I imagined? I thought I could at least hold out for a few moves, but I didn't expect it to collapse as soon as we met."

"However, since you are quite good, I can give you a chance. If you kneel down and sign a master-slave contract with me right now, I can give you a chance to survive, and I can also ensure that you don't have to worry about being executed in Paradise after becoming a violator. How do you think?"

A mocking tone full of sarcasm came from mid-air. The arcane mage mocked jokingly, but if you look closely, you will find that there is no trace of arrogance in the depths of his pupils. There is only coldness and calmness like a cold pond.

"Surrender and you won't be killed? Ha, is it possible that the level of recent offenders has become so low that they can even say such brainless fishing words? Is it possible that they have read too many third-rate dark novels, or have you, the people of the arcane faction, always been so stupid?"

A cold and indifferent sneer full of disdain sounded from below. The black-haired young man raised his head and glanced at the arcane mage standing in the sky, and said indifferently:
"Before you come next time, you'd better wipe off the stench on your body. That disgusting magic 'smell' is still nauseating even from such a long distance."

"Also, if possible, it would be best to get your eyes repaired, so that you don't mistake magic for the wrong one next time."

Mistaken magic?

The indifferent voice rang out on the battlefield as the soul energy spread. The arcane mage was slightly startled when he heard it, and then he suddenly realized something. He turned his head in disbelief and looked at the outer edge of the hurricane that was frantically attacking the black-haired young man and the dark brown rock spike wall around him. The next moment -

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom...!!

There was a series of explosive roars, and the black powder formed by the crushing of dark brown rock pillars at the edge of the hurricane that was rotating with the hurricane suddenly exploded one after another, causing a series of chain explosions at the edge of the hurricane, turning the thunderstorm that was enough to destroy everything into a crumbling firestorm.

boom--! !

Finally, with a huge roar, the hurricane released by the arcane mage completely lost control due to the interference of a large number of explosions, dissipated in the flames into a gorgeous firework, and exploded with a bang.

On the ground, the black-haired young man was bathed in the gorgeous fire rain that fell from the sky. He looked up at the scene in front of him, with a hint of sneer on the corner of his mouth. His lips moved slightly and he said two words silently:

'ignorance.'

The arcane mage looked at the black-haired young man's small movements, his forehead slightly swelled, and he subconsciously clenched his fists. A strong murderous intent flashed across the depths of his pupils, but the expression on his face still maintained that fake mockery. After taking a deep breath, he sneered:
"Very good, you actually played such a trick. It seems that I overestimated your dignity as a magician."

"For someone who can't even recognize compound magic, there's no point in talking about the dignity of a magician. This will only make people laugh."

The black-haired young man said with a smile, looking at the spark that fell on his shoulder and patted it gently, giving the impression that he didn't even bother to look at the arcane mage, which made the arcane mage above pause. After several seconds, he spoke with a gloomy expression:

"Is the great Black Sword just a guy who can only show off his power through words?"

"Why, are you in a hurry?"

The black-haired young man stood where he was, glanced at the noble young man out of the corner of his eye, and asked back in a calm expression.

When the arcane mage heard this, the veins on his forehead bulged uncontrollably, and his fingers pinched the pages of the book with such force that it seemed as if he wanted to crush them.

"Okay, very good! In that case, let me see what else you can do!!"

"You will only be careless like that once. This time, I won't give you any chance again, Black Sword!"

A cold and sharp voice came from the arcane mage's mouth, and he suddenly opened the magic book in his hand. After turning to a certain page, the magic power in his body began to surge wildly.

Om-! !

The next second, colorful light bloomed from his hands, and the fluctuations of the seven elements of fire, earth, water, wind, thunder, darkness, and light mixed together, exuding an extremely terrifying sense of oppression, causing all kinds of strange phenomena to appear in the air around the arcane mage.

——The strongest spellcaster of the second level VS the strongest wizard of the second level.

Round two begins!
