Moon Witch, embark on the journey!

"You made me waste so much effort, noble lady? I wonder what the torture will be like."

......

The target of the pursuit finally appeared in an unmanned warehouse near the slums.

The light in the sky was already very dim, the last ray of sunset had completely fallen not long ago. The night gradually covered the entire city, and the sea breeze blew a little fishy smell from afar.

"You're not going to hide anymore?"

Silver Scorpion saw the girl walking out of the warehouse. She was covered by a cloak, and only a vague outline could be seen. Although his true appearance could not be seen, the faint mental fluctuations and the slight disturbances of the surrounding elements were real.

A wizard's apprentice indeed.

Is the teacher's curse that powerful? It feels like the other party is much weaker than expected.

Carde was very confident about this action, but the power indirectly demonstrated by his teacher made him feel a little depressed.

"Let me go. We can negotiate any terms. The family behind me can give you what you want."

What did the girl under the cloak say? Her voice sounded a little strange, perhaps because she was too scared?

Silver Scorpion sneered and looked at the other party fiercely:

"If you don't resist, I can make your death easier."

How could a guy who could barely maintain the strength of a mid-level apprentice be qualified to negotiate with him?

"The guards ignored the pirates' entry into the city. You even managed to win over the local lords. You don't have the ability to do this yourself."

She seemed to be deeply confused.

"Before you die, can you let me know who killed you? I have no hatred against you, the master and the disciple..."

"Too much nonsense!"

Carde became impatient. In his eyes, the other person was already a dead person. The only problem was how to kill her.

"Die to me!"

Swish!

The silver hook in the hand of the Silver Scorpion instantly lit up with magical light, and runes appeared above it. He just waved his hand, and a gray-black light blade slashed at the opponent in the night sky!

This is no ordinary weapon, but an alchemical item that solidifies witchcraft!

It was faster than normal witchcraft, and the track was hidden in the night. With this sneak attack alone, he killed several apprentices who had no combat experience!

boom!

A small, bright fireball appeared in front of the other party.

9. The picture shows the dagger

boom!

In the slums of the city, in a sparsely populated area, in the evening, a dazzling spark exploded in the open space in front of the warehouse, briefly illuminating the two people confronting each other.

Where the two witchcrafts collided, a large charred area appeared on the dirt ground.

"You can actually react, it seems that you are worthy of being a high-level apprentice."

Silver Scorpion was slightly surprised, and then a ferocious smile appeared on his face. He stared at this side, exuding a unique and dangerous aura.

"That's good. It would be too boring to die immediately. I haven't met an opponent who can play with me properly for a long time!"

That was the murderous aura and confidence accumulated from killing countless people, even wizard apprentices.

Luna didn't respond, but the flaw in her voice was still there, so she chose not to speak if she could.

The plan of the two was actually quite simple. Luna would replace Claire and act as the target in the open, while Claire would hide in the dark and look for the opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

This apprentice-level sorcery, 'Fire Bomb', was not cast by Luna herself, who had just gotten started, but was cast instantly using the sorcery scroll that Claire had given her in advance.

Most wizard apprentices were not strong, not to mention Luna, a newbie. In order to prevent accidents, the original plan was to release the "Shield Spell" to protect herself as soon as possible.

But Luna discovered the opponent's sneak attack through her keen perception of the elements, and used the "fire bomb" to counteract it. Judging from the opponent's reaction, most ordinary apprentices were actually unable to react in time.

The 'Observation' rune gave her the ability to keep up with the pace of the senior apprentices.

Hidden under the cloak, in the hands of the silver-haired girl, the first small witchcraft scroll quietly turned into ashes.

There are five in total, as well as two fire bombs, one shield, and one freeze.

"You're not going to attack me? Then I'm going to attack you!"

After saying this, Silver Scorpion stared at her intently, as if chanting some spell.

But Luna did not notice any signs of the other party casting a spell. She held the second scroll in her hand, staring at the other party intently, ready to activate it at any time.

wrong!

She suddenly felt something strange and used her power of observation to scan the other person carefully. Soon, she found a flaw.

His real body was no longer there! What was left there was an illusion! The Silver Scorpion had already cast the invisibility spell and disappeared without making any noise!

A voice sounded soon after.

[Be careful, about fifteen steps to your left! ]

Under the cloak, a glimmering ornament hung on the girl's white earlobe. This was an alchemical item that could communicate over short distances.

This was naturally Claire's warning, and it seemed that the means she had were not bad.

Luna became alert, but she pretended not to notice. Less than 20 meters to the left, a figure was approaching quietly.

The opponent's steps were motionless, not like a wizard but an excellent assassin. However, Luna still relied on her observation ability far beyond that of an ordinary apprentice to discover some flaws in the invisibility technique.

Apprentice-level 'invisibility' is not difficult to break, it cannot eliminate sound, and is more often used to bully ordinary people. But if you focus on the opponent's illusion, it is easy to ignore the threat from the side.

There were beads of sweat on Luna's neck. She had limited means and little combat experience. She could only rely on improvisation, which was quite stressful.

One step, two steps.

The other party had approached to within less than ten meters.

Almost at the same time, the two of them emitted magical fluctuations. A small red fireball flew out in front of Luna, while a needle emitting a cold aura flew out from the opposite side.

boom!

The two witchcrafts collided again.

The impact of the elements erupted again, and the needles of cold energy quickly melted in the flames. The subsequent impact and flames spread to the rear, and the invisibility effect on the Silver Scorpion was broken. He suddenly appeared on the ground not far away, with a charred area on his chest.

This time, Silver Scorpion prepared a more concealed witchcraft. Although it was enough to kill the unsuspecting apprentice, its head-on power was much weaker and it immediately suffered a loss in the collision.

"You actually found out?!"

His face was full of uncertainty, and the failure of his sneak attacks made him doubt his originally confident fighting style.

"You are quite perceptive, woman. There are really not many apprentices who can make me use my full strength... In that case, I will let you see it for yourself!"

He tore off the coarse cloth on his chest, revealing large silver-grey runes on his muscular body, from his chest to his shoulders and arms, almost completely covering his entire upper body. At this moment, the runes all over his body lit up in an instant.

[It's a body transformation magic array! Quickly keep your distance. ]

Feeling something was wrong, Luna released her last fire bomb and turned around and ran without even looking.

boom!

A fist-sized fireball exploded behind her, causing quite a commotion. But Luna had no confidence in this kind of witchcraft, which was known for its great power among apprentices.

Rumble, rumble!

"Die!!!"

A figure came running at high speed. The distance between the two sides was already very close, and it was impossible to dodge for a while!

Shield magic!

A shield of light formed behind Luna, stretching between the two of them.

She looked back and saw that the burly man was now emitting gray light all over his body. The magic light on his body was connected into one piece. A scorpion-like shadow was faintly condensed behind him, and he seemed to be wearing a heavy armor. He caught up with her in a few steps, bringing violent wind pressure, like a savage monster.

Bang!

He swung his arm violently and punched the glowing shield.

Click.

Cracks appeared on the shield behind him and spread rapidly.

Luna's heart also trembled. This was a shield that could resist witchcraft of the same level. In other words, the opponent's punches and kicks were close to the power of witchcraft!

"Dead! Die! Die!"

The man who had transformed into a monster seemed to be losing his mind. He attacked violently, smashing the shield in front of him into pieces with just a few punches.

At this moment, Silver Scorpion's attention was completely focused on Luna in front of him. He completely ignored everything else and had only one thought in mind: to kill the "cloaked woman" in front of him.

【The time is now! 】

Luna was well prepared. At the moment when the shield was broken and the Silver Scorpion Carde was about to approach, she released the last scroll in her hand.

click-

A strong chill emanated, gathering into a snake-like icy mist that converged towards the lower body of the silver scorpion, freezing it in place.

"That's all you can do!?"

The witchcraft that was enough to cause frostbite to ordinary people had no power in front of the Silver Scorpion at this time. He struggled violently, the gray light on his body became stronger, his developed muscles bulged, and the ice on his lower body immediately cracked.

He was already thinking in his mind how to tear into pieces this woman who had caused him so much trouble!

Ok? !

At this moment, there was a sudden wave of witchcraft behind him.

10.After the war

The witchcraft fluctuations behind him were far beyond the ordinary apprentice-level witchcraft, and even gave people the feeling that they were faintly touching a higher level. Such a huge threat could no longer be hidden the moment it was launched.

Sensing something was wrong, Silver Scorpion turned around suddenly and saw the black-haired girl in the night.

She was wearing an aristocratic long dress, standing quietly not far away, with large patches of frost condensing around her. A huge white-scaled snake shadow appeared behind her, looking lifelike.

She is the target!

Under the moonlight, the white snake opened its mouth, and its violent cold breath gathered into a line, sweeping towards the silver scorpion trapped by the ice.

"Damn it!"

As soon as Silver Scorpion pulled his legs out of the ice, the terrifying cold breath came to him. His face changed drastically, and he put his hands in front of him in rage and fear. Then he was quickly buried by the frost.

slam-la-

The frost breath lasted for a few seconds before dissipating. A long, icy road covered with white frost appeared on the ground, and at the end of the road was a humanoid ice sculpture with a still fearful look on its face.

Claire's face turned extremely pale, and her magic power and mental strength were quickly exhausted.

"Solve it?"

Luna took off her cloak, revealing her long silver hair, and trotted over. Although she had avoided it in advance, she was still affected by the cold air around her. She shivered slightly and immediately wrapped her clothes tighter.

"It's really cold. This witchcraft is totally different from other apprentice-level witchcraft. How did you do it?"

"It borrows some of the power of blood. This is the special feature of blood witchcraft, although it can usually only be used in formal witchcraft."

Claire took a few breaths. Her mental and magical powers, which had been suppressed, could no longer sustain this level of output. Now she felt almost powerless all over.

"Well? I didn't lie to you, did I? If it weren't for the curse, I could handle him by myself!"

In front of Luna, she rarely showed a look of girlish pride.

"You have to respect me a little more."
