On the Seven Towers

Chapter 216: Battle of Barriers

Rod and Catalina supported each other and walked out of the alley, but Camp No. 3 was already in chaos. The former slaves who had lived a peaceful life were now running around in panic, as if everything had returned to the scene of the riot in the Suero slave camp.

The fires at more than a dozen fire points were getting bigger and bigger, and gradually tended to be connected. It's not that no one tried to put out the fire, but compared with the people who were incited to try to rob property, prepare to escape, or run aimlessly, these were really a minority.

Catalina even saw that some people would rush over to push and beat those who were putting out the fire.

"Those are Lorenzo's people." Rod said hatefully. Originally, this action was his best token of loyalty, but now the mission has completely failed, and he was beaten half to death. Shame! The Temple of War God regards honor above all else. When it comes to hating Lorenzo and his accomplices, Rhodes definitely hates Lorenzo more than anyone else around him. "We must kill those controlled by Lorenzo, so that the remaining people can be organized to put out the fire."

"Okay. Let's go separately." Catalina used the little bit of fighting spirit she had left to make her lame leg more convenient, and was about to stop the two guys who were beating people. But she heard two whooshing sounds from the side. Two stones wrapped in pure white fighting spirit flew towards the two beaters, directly smashing their heads into rotten watermelons.

Rhode weighed the remaining two stones in his hand and said, "Let's go together. What if there are masters under Lorenzo mixed in? Besides, there are more than one or two spies in this camp. If you are attacked, I can't explain to Lord Luo Ling. Well, go and explain the situation to these people, they know who you are."

Catrina pulled down her wig, untied her green hair, and said to the frightened people, "I am Catalina from the camp management office. These troublemakers are spies planted by the enemy to incite riots in the camp. Lord Luo Ling will be back to control the situation soon. Let's hurry up and put out the fire, otherwise our two months of hard work will be in vain."

"You should be divided into groups according to the units you usually work in or the houses you stay in. If you see someone running around, stop him and add him to the group. If you see someone making trouble, we will deal with him!" Rhode interrupted.

The residents who were putting out the fire felt relieved when they saw someone representing the official to stabilize the situation. However, a little boy asked, "But where is Ms. Luo Ling? Why hasn't she shown up yet? We sent people to look for her before, but no one came back."

This question made Catalina nervous. Yes, where is Luo Ling?

——————————————————

Luo Ling was standing at the door of the clinic at this time, but strangely, the area around her with a radius of about five meters was covered by a dark eggshell-shaped barrier.

When the camp was in chaos, she was ready to come out to stabilize the situation at the first time, but just as she stepped out of the door of the clinic, a strange feeling suddenly came over her, and the whole world seemed to be pulled away from her. Elena, who was one step away from her, was getting farther and farther away from her. A few seconds later, she was trapped in this small piece of land.

When Luo Ling realized her situation, she forced herself to calm down. She knew that everything was premeditated. The more so, the more she couldn't appear panicked. It seemed that this was the first time that she had to use force to solve the problem. She needed to buy time to prepare defensive magic, so she spoke to the air.

"Come out. I know you are watching me in this dark curtain." Luo Ling did not look around, but kept staring at a certain place in front of her.

Seeing no response around, she said again: "I believe you are going to do more than just trap me here. No matter what else you want to do, hiding in this dark curtain is useless."

"I advise you not to waste time. The people I arranged in the camp will find this place soon. I believe they can still cause you some trouble outside."

"How do you know that I will stay in this barrier with you?" A deep female voice came from all directions.

"Women's intuition, you know." Luo Ling smiled, "I can still feel that you are hesitating, because what you want to do is different from what they told you to do."

"Huh, I don't know what you are talking about." The woman said.

"Let me guess." Luo Ling tilted her head slightly, as if thinking about something. "Your superior asked you to trap me for a while. But you... want to challenge my strength. Maybe, you want to kill me here."

After Luo Ling finished speaking, there was a long silence. Just when she suspected that she had guessed the other party's intention wrong, suddenly several black rays came from different directions, piercing through the black curtain and stabbed at her. For a moment, Luo Ling's head, neck, heart and abdomen were targeted by the black rays, and several blood holes would be opened in an instant.

However, at this time, four crystal ice shields suddenly appeared out of thin air around Luo Ling. The ice shields were very thin and almost completely transparent. Only the refraction of light could make people notice their existence. However, the ice shields that seemed to break at the touch firmly blocked the black rays. Only then did Luo Ling see clearly that the so-called black rays were feathers, which were slightly trembling in the ice shields, as if they were made of steel. Luo Ling's heart was beating wildly at this time, but she tried to force herself to look very confident.

The ice shield slowly rotated, and the feathers on it turned into light and returned to the barrier. Luo Ling saw a petite figure appear in front of her through the ice.

"Rada." Luo Ling said softly. She was a little surprised that this little girl who was learning Chinese characters in her class was actually the mastermind behind the attack on her.

"Teacher Luo is indeed unfathomable." Lada was still wearing his usual work clothes, but he held a dagger in his hand. "Ordinary magicians can't escape such an attack. It seems that those people asked me not to provoke you." Makes sense."

Luo Ling smiled faintly and said nothing, but the ice shield in front of her suddenly exploded, and countless ice-breaking shotguns rushed towards Lada's face. In an instant, Lada changed from a brightly colored person to a dark shadow, and then flashed two meters away. Just as she was about to fight back, Luo Ling's ice shield exploded one after another. After flashing several times in succession, she was forced to the edge of the barrier. She was half-crouching, and several blood grooves appeared on her limbs and face, which looked quite embarrassing.

Feeling the hot blood on her face, Lada said angrily: "Teacher Luo, you really annoyed me this time."

"I just don't like children pretending to be serious, Lada, you look much cuter now." Luo Ling said lightly.

"I'm not a child. I was older than you when I was a killer." Lada snorted coldly. "However, you must have been uncomfortable with what I did just now. Look at the corners of your mouth."

Luo Ling wiped the corners of her mouth, leaving a few streaks of bright red. How could she not know that although these short and quick blows hurt the other party, they also put a huge burden on her body. But she still used her mental power to make ice shields appear around her.

"I understand now why no one has ever seen a magician like you take action. It turns out you have a hidden injury." Lada turned into a shadow again, "Let me see where your limit is. Bar."

This time the black shadow no longer just avoided, but rushed forward and stabbed Luo Ling's vitals with the dagger in his hand. At the same time, black light flew out of the black screen again and besieged Luo Ling together with the black shadow.

The dagger in Lada's hand was much more powerful than the black light. The single layer of ice shield immediately broke into several pieces under her full blow. Then Hei Mang would sneak in and attack Luo Ling through the cracks in the ice shield. Luo Ling had to summon more ice shields to block the opponent's attack.

But she also discovered that once the black shadow wanted to form an attack, Lada had to break away from the shadow state that was immune to attacks at that moment. So whenever the shield shattered, she would not hesitate to explode the fragments to form a counterattack.

The two of them attacked at extremely fast speeds, seemingly evenly matched, but Luo Ling knew in her heart that if this continued, she would be the one to fall sooner or later. Lada's injuries were basically flesh and blood, even if blood was sprinkled all over the floor. , and was not seriously injured. But her own body could no longer hold on.

As a price for opening the "Shadow Scroll of the Sea of ​​​​Consciousness" without concentration, whenever she uses her mental power, a backlash will occur, and the backlash of mental power "cuts" her brain and body like a sharp knife.

Although the damage caused by this invisible knife is not as good as that of a real sword, it penetrates deep into the inside of every cell. Once Luo Ling consumes her mental energy to a certain level, instead of fighting the enemy, it is better to say that she is fighting herself.

After exploding the last ice shield again, Lada also stopped. She also needed to breathe. The shadow battle just now was not easy for her. Her face was covered with small scratches and was covered in blood, but she looked excited, like a lioness about to successfully prey. She knew that if she continued to attack, Luo Ling could at least summon a round of ice shield, but if she relaxed, it would be too difficult to return to the fierce fighting state from before. Maybe the backlash from the secret wound will prevent her from releasing any magic... Maybe the next attack will be the moment to succeed.

"You're right, Luo Ling. It was my idea to kill you." Blood flowed into Lada's mouth, making her laugh like a devil. "Do you know that you tell lies every day? , it’s so disgusting when you scare those adults and brats around. When they look at you like a savior, I always wonder what it would be like when this righteous savior falls under my knife. "Killing you hypocritical superiors is the most fun game for me."

Luo Ling lowered her head and knelt on the ground on one knee. She was speechless, but she still managed to smile. It wasn't because of the other person's words, but because she found a small seedling growing out of the soil in front of her.
