Chapter 171: Impossible! Becoming a Magic Turret!

~14 min read 2,781 words

Lightning pierced through the air and trees, and the smell of burning permeated the air; at this moment, the world seemed to fall silent all at once.

Quine-Aise and the gray-robed mage, who had been confronting each other, all looked at Tang Zheng with vigilance, expressions of disbelief appearing in their eyes.

"Fifth Rank magic... this brat?" The gray-robed mage widened his light brown eyes.

Being able to use Fifth Rank magic must mean that the opponent had stepped into the Hero Realm, but how could this be possible!

The terrifying magical power fluctuation in the air had not yet completely dissipated, as if telling him that everything that had just happened was not fake.

The problem is!

The magic this brat initially displayed was clearly of the faith system, and it was even a Fourth Rank · Monitoring Dominion Authority Angel.

Fourth Rank faith-type magic?

Fifth Rank magic-type magic?

Mastering two such high-level spellcasting abilities meant that the black-haired brat before him had absolutely surpassed the "Hero Realm" and stepped into the level of an "Aberrant."

"This is impossible!"

The gray-robed mage roared as if he had lost his voice, subconsciously taking a step back.

In all human countries, those who have reached the "Aberrant" level on the surface can be counted on one hand; perhaps such existences are hidden in the dark, but it absolutely could not be this black-haired kid who was young to an excessive degree.

Compared to the shocked gray-robed mage.

Quine-Aise calmed down immediately, quickly letting the water-blue giant lizardman block in front of him, shock and doubt flashing in his deep red pupils.

The reason he could calm down quickly was because he had seen truly powerful existences that could not be described in words.

That was the suffocating aura and pressure that could be felt just by being stared at by the opponent!

People in the Other World cannot accurately judge their own or others' specific levels like players, and can only make certain judgments based on general strength.

At least!

The two high-level spellcaster system abilities displayed by Tang Zheng before him were completely abnormal.

Suddenly.

Quine-Aise noticed the magic circle behind Tang Zheng, which had eroded and stained the ground with blood in the jungle scorched by lightning damage.

In the current environment, the traces of large-scale blood erosion were still quite obvious.

So that's it!

"It's a magic ritual."

Quine-Aise's face returned to calm, and he said lightly with a chuckle, recovering his usual composure.

And he didn't care about the four-tailed black panther that had died and turned into charcoal, not even glancing at it.

The indifferent words reached the ears of the gray-robed mage not far away, making him pause, and he soon noticed the bright red, bloody magic circle.

"This brat actually mastered such means." The gray-robed mage relaxed internally; although still a bit surprised, he no longer had the tension he had at the beginning.

If it was a magic ritual, then it made sense!

Fluder, the "Guardian God" of the Baharuth Empire, is a legendary powerhouse and existence among humans, known as the "Triple Magic Caster."

The opponent can not only use Sixth Rank magic-type magic but also Third Rank faith-type magic.

He has lived for nearly 300 years since the founding of the Baharuth Empire, also because he mastered Sixth Rank spirit-type magic!

According to common sense, this is obviously impossible, but Fluder achieved it; the opponent relied on magic rituals and mysterious forbidden arts.

The gray-robed mage had also heard that some special professions have common characteristics between different systems.

Crack!

A black charcoal-like branch was stepped on and snapped.

"Do you know? I don't want to fight guys like you at all, not because you are strong, but because of the existence of resurrection magic."

"Wanting to thoroughly slaughter you is just too troublesome." Tang Zheng's cold voice rang out in the quiet jungle at this moment.

Looking at the two people who had just been surprised and had now returned to calm.

Tang Zheng didn't know what the two were thinking internally just now, but he could roughly guess some of it.

The magic ritual of "Magic Rise" requires the use of materials containing magical power to set up.

He used conspicuous materials like Ogre blood, besides the fact that he really didn't have any good magic materials on him, there was also an intentional component!

The number of spells and skills in the "Yggdrasil" game is simply too many, and what Tang Zheng himself knows is already very limited.

Not to mention that people in the Other World will develop and even modify magic themselves; Tang Zheng also cannot be sure whether, even if he slaughters these two, there will be a risk of information leakage.

Quine-Aise is a member of the 【Black Scripture】; whether he carries items of the "Six Great Gods" is completely unknown.

Although members of the 【Black Scripture】 might have their player items recovered by the Theocracy when not on missions, he must take these factors into account!

"I take back what I just said; you are not some small character."

Quine-Aise's peaceful voice came from behind the water-blue lizard: "You weren't injured after being attacked; was it because of the defense of a magic item?"

"I can represent the High Priest of the 'Earth God' of the Slane Theocracy to issue an invitation to you, and can even make compensation specifically for this matter."

"I refuse."

Tang Zheng raised his head and said coldly: "Trading your life for Blackie's life is the fairest compensation."

"It's as expected that we can't talk it out."

Quine-Aise's red eyes turned cold; comparing his life to that trash-like Evil Spirit Dog was simply an insult to him:

"I am very interested in the magic ritual you used; don't worry, I will leave you a breath."

So what if you can use Fifth Rank magic?

The Hero Realm is just a threshold for the mysterious team he belongs to.

Almost the moment Quine-Aise finished speaking!

In the shadow of a large tree not far behind Tang Zheng, a brand-new four-tailed black panther that had been hiding in the shadows silently darted out, pouncing on Tang Zheng's back.

"Bai Yin Knight Spear."

Tang Zheng didn't even turn his head; a silver knight spear condensed in mid-air and pierced through the four-tailed black panther in an instant.

He indeed didn't have detection-type magic, but he possessed the martial art "Mind's Eye," which could completely observe and perceive attacks outside his field of vision.

"Thunderball!"

While Tang Zheng and Quine-Aise were briefly clashing, a dazzling thunder light ball blasted toward Quine-Aise.

Boom!

"Hiss."

The water-blue lizard hissed, immediately flicking its tail to whip at the Thunderball; the two collided in mid-air, emitting a roaring explosion.

"How about we two join forces, kid? The opponent specializes in summoning magic beasts and controlling different magic beasts for group combat."

The gray-robed mage's cold face revealed a smile toward Tang Zheng, and he said: "It's very troublesome to kill him."

"You want that magic crucible of the lizardmen, right? This item is in my hands; how about an exchange?"

His proposal was beneficial to both sides, and he didn't think Tang Zheng would refuse.

However.

Bang! Bang!

With the flickering of two dazzling lights.

Two Peace Dominion Authority Angels appeared on the field, their wings shaking as they pounced toward Quine-Aise.

Only then did Tang Zheng turn around and look at the gray-robed mage: "I think solving you all in one go is the best choice."

"You stupid..." The gray-robed mage's expression froze, and he couldn't help but curse loudly, but the next moment, he quickly released a spell:

"Magic Shield!"

"Flame Knight Spear!"

Tang Zheng said coldly, a knight spear condensed from flames appeared instantly, blasting toward the gray-robed mage.

Boom!

The Flame Knight Spear collided with the Magic Shield, causing a huge explosion, and the strong impact force made the gray-robed mage retreat in a sorry state.

"You..." The gray-robed mage was somewhat anxious and angry, just preparing to release an attack spell as well, when a rapid sound of breaking air followed closely behind.

"Storm Knight Spear!"

A knight spear condensed from translucent gale blasted over, its speed clearly faster than the "Flame Knight Spear."

Facing this situation.

It was too late for the gray-robed mage to dodge, so he could only helplessly continue to use the defensive spell with the fastest chanting speed to block:

"Magic Shield!"

Bang!

The Storm Knight Spear collided with the Magic Shield, emitting intense, piercing friction hisses one after another. The gray-robed mage felt the Storm Knight Spear, which clearly had continuous destructive power, and his expression changed.

He hurriedly injected magical power into the Magic Shield continuously, barely blocking the continuous destruction of the Storm Knight Spear!

"Torrent Knight Spear."

Another chanting sound rang out.

The gray-robed mage's expression changed completely; he was currently injecting magical power into the "Magic Shield" and simply couldn't continue to release spells.

Boom—

A water-blue stream of light flashed through the air.

The Magic Shield shattered!

The gray-robed mage spat out blood, his eyes filled with horror as he looked at the "Torrent Knight Spear" that had blasted into his body.

The gray mage robe shook, and a layer of invisible magic barrier immediately unfolded from the robe, blocking this Torrent Knight Spear.

"What on earth is this!" The gray-robed mage had blood on the corner of his mouth, staggered back a few steps, his face full of shock.

"Is the power of water-type attacks weaker?" An indifferent voice rang out from opposite.

=9+Shu_Ba

The one who spoke was naturally Tang Zheng.

Through the 【Mad Mage】 passive "Elemental Conversion," attribute-type magic can be converted into the four main attributes of wind, fire, water, and earth.

"Bai Yin Knight Spear" belongs to silver-attribute attack magic.

Tang Zheng remembered that among the "Ten Heroes of the Demi-humans" in the Abelion Hills region, there was a Queen of the Magic-Manifesting People who developed knight spear magic of three attributes—thunderstorm, ice burial, and flame burn—through the spell "Bai Yin Knight Spear," which was called "Ice, Flame, Thunder" by other demi-humans.

He can now convert four attributes; should it be called "Wind, Fire, Water, Earth"?

A thought of dark humor flashed through Tang Zheng's mind.

This passive can only convert elemental-type magic; he secretly experimented with the angels he summoned just now and found that it couldn't exert any effect on them.

Thinking about it carefully, it was normal.

The key to summoned angels lies in the "angel" itself; as for the holy attribute possessed by the angel, it is just an incidental ability.

However, this passive should be usable on elemental-type summoning magic; he happened to have mastered the magic of "Mixed Wetland Element" summoning.

Next is—

A brief thought flashed through his mind, and looking at the gray-robed mage who had been beaten into a daze opposite, Tang Zheng's gaze was cold, and he chanted in a low voice again: "Earth-Blast Knight Spear!"

Whoosh!

A knight spear condensed entirely from rock appeared, kicking up air waves and blasting toward the gray-robed mage.

"Damn it!"

"Bai Yin Knight Spear!" Seeing Tang Zheng, who didn't give him any breathing room at all, the gray-robed mage had cold sweat on his forehead and hurriedly followed up by releasing the strongest attack spell in his hand.

He was good at dealing with summoning-type magic!

Whether it was Quine-Aise, who possessed the 【Magic Beast Summoner】 profession, or Tang Zheng, who initially showed angel summoning capabilities, he was confident he could defeat them.

But Tang Zheng's sudden change in fighting style and powerful magic-type attack means directly put him at a disadvantage.

Boom!

The Earth-Blast Knight Spear and the Bai Yin Knight Spear collided heavily, triggering a strong shockwave that spread in all directions.

The dense trees around were snapped by this shockwave, and a large amount of fallen leaves flew about.

The two knight spears, both Fourth Rank spells, seemed to have similar power; after the strong collision, the Bai Yin Knight Spear began to dissipate.

And the Earth-Blast Knight Spear was covered in dense cracks, then collapsed and scattered, turning into a large amount of small gravel and blasting toward the gray-robed mage.

The scene that appeared suddenly!

Made the gray-robed mage unable to respond in time; fortunately, the magic robe with defensive capabilities on his body blocked it again.

"Storm Knight Spear!" Tang Zheng's indifferent voice followed.

Whoosh!

The translucent spear shadow disappeared into the air, and in the instant the gray-robed mage couldn't respond, it pierced through his chest.

"Pfft!" The gray-robed mage coughed up a large mouthful of blood, his eyes widening.

Bang—

As dust splashed, he fell backward onto the ground, his hooked-nosed face full of disbelief and a trace of confusion.

Lost too fast!

He clearly had many spells he hadn't cast, but facing this kind of pure attack magic bombardment...

"Why are there so many types of knight spear magic..." The gray-robed mage didn't have any fear of death, only full of unwillingness.

Step!

Footsteps rang out.

Tang Zheng came to the gray-robed mage, who had a large hole in his chest and a weak aura, took out a bottle of alchemy potion, and poured it directly onto the opponent's chest.

Immediately after!

Tang Zheng kicked the gray-robed mage's neck heavily, kicking him unconscious.

"Solved one."

Looking at the unconscious gray-robed mage, Tang Zheng withdrew his gaze.

He naturally wouldn't let the gray-robed mage die directly, because he had to guard against the possibility of the opponent being directly resurrected by resurrection magic.

【Death Orb: 280→120/280】

Releasing five knight spear spells with relatively high Fourth Rank attack intensity in one go was what defeated the gray-robed mage.

The opponent didn't lose unjustly!

Tang Zheng didn't intend to slowly release spells with the opponent; he needed to solve the opponent quickly to focus his energy on the other opponent.

If it weren't for the issue of magical power consumption and observing the changes in power of the magic itself after elemental conversion.

He would have intended to release the Fifth Rank "Dragon Thunder."

Next—

Tang Zheng turned around, his left hand hidden in his loose sleeve holding the "Death Orb," looking at Quine-Aise, who was being held back by the two Peace Dominion Authority Angels.

No!

Not held back at all.

Quine-Aise summoned another large water-blue lizard, letting the two water-blue lizards tangle with the Peace Dominion Authority Angels while observing the other battlefield.

The key to fighting a magic caster is "magical power"!

Since Tang Zheng chose to fight another magic caster, he naturally didn't intend to disturb, and regardless of winning or losing, it only had benefits for him.

However.

Quine-Aise never expected that this battle would end too quickly.

To be precise, when Quine-Aise saw Tang Zheng release the third elemental-type knight spear magic attack, he already realized that the gray-robed mage was bound to lose.

The opponent's various strange means simply couldn't be exerted in the face of this kind of pure magic bombardment!

Quine-Aise also realized why Tang Zheng would take action against the gray-robed mage first, because the opponent wanted to end the battle quickly to use his energy to deal with him.

Swish! Swish!

The two Peace Dominion Authority Angels suddenly shook their wings, began to retreat, and returned to Tang Zheng, who had already appeared in front of him.

The two large water-blue lizards also made a retreating motion, guarding Quine-Aise on the left and right.

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

A smile appeared on Quine-Aise's gentle and composed face, and he raised his hands to applaud: "Truly a wonderful battle."

"Storm Knight Spear!"

Tang Zheng didn't have any nonsense, directly blasting a spell over.

Quine-Aise raised his left hand, and the magic ring on his thumb flashed: "This level of magic attack is useless against me."

"Attack Deflection."

Boom!

The high-speed Storm Knight Spear suddenly tilted in mid-air, bypassed Quine-Aise, flew over his head, and blasted into the jungle behind, emitting a loud noise.

Tang Zheng's brows furrowed; only then did he notice that the opponent's left hand was actually full of rings, which were clearly magic items.

Sure enough, tricky!

"How much magical power do you have left to consume now?"

"It looks like you are going to die here today."

After Quine-Aise easily changed the magic Tang Zheng had just used to defeat the gray-robed mage, the gentle smile on his face became even more brilliant.

"No."

Tang Zheng raised his head, staring at Quine-Aise: "I think the one who will die here will be you!"
