Chapter 488: Tasting Despair Again
Sylph wasn't the only one caught in a tough fight.
Cassius and Shana's situation was not easy either.
[Scarlet Coral] Although all members of the guild have been promoted to LV4 except for Roshan who is at LV5.
But after all, Avervanxon is a demon king, stronger than the ordinary human LV7.
Even with the help of two disaster-level magicians, Nobo and Weissman, they could not gain any advantage over their opponents.
After all, Avervanxen possesses the magic eye of the devil [Greed] and can use [Magic Immunity].
The only ones who can really cause harm to Avervanxon are Cassius, Mandy, and Mel.
Faced with an opponent who is immune to all magical damage, even a calamity-level magician can only retreat to the back and serve as a support.
Bless the three main attacking swordsmen with buffs, and build defensive magic to resist the enemy's attacks for the three of them, and help the main attacking swordsmen break the enemy's defensive magic.
Originally, Miss wanted Cassius and Shana to deal with Michelle.
As for Avervanxon and his clone, he planned to deal with them by himself and Raymond.
As a result, he was rejected by both siblings.
For them, the real murderer who killed Cross must be executed by their own hands.
The idea is good, but actually doing it is extremely difficult.
Especially when they learned that their opponent was Avervanxen himself, they became more cautious.
Failure to win this battle would not only mean that they would be unable to avenge their brother, but would also implicate other companions.
So Cassius and Shana both signed a "military order" and must kill Avervanxen to help Miss break the situation.
But from the current situation, it seems that Avervanxon didn't even use his full strength.
With his level 3, Cassius's current state of mind is enough to unleash strength that exceeds that of an average Sky-breaking Sword Master.
But there is still a gap between LV6 and LV7.
In contrast, Averfanksson knew exactly where his opponent's weaknesses were.
As long as you defeat the three swordsmen, you will win.
He chose the order from weak to strong, and defeated Mel and Mandy successively, turning the one-on-three melee into a one-on-one between himself and Cassius.
When Mandy and Mel wanted to join the battle again, they couldn't find the angle at all.
Cassius's desperate attack frequency was almost catching up with Avervanxon's spellcasting frequency.
Even Avervanxon, who had lived for more than a thousand years, was somewhat shocked by the little yellow-haired man's sword.
"This is the first time I've seen a LV3 like this."
"I didn't expect that a little guy like you could actually do this..."
"But...are you looking down on me?"
Avervanxon used a magic barrier to bounce Cassius away and increase the distance.
Then, a large magic circle appeared in front of him.
"The sword you failed to strike in the palace of Lairui City was obviously much more powerful than it is now."
Norbo and Weissman's defensive magic was almost synchronized with Avervanxen's offensive magic.
But the Demon King’s full-strength attack could not be blocked by Level 6 defensive magic.
Just when Shana had no time to react, a flaming arrow shot out from the magic circle in front of Avervanxon.
The arrow penetrated layer after layer of defense of the two Disaster-level magicians and finally collided violently with Cassius's sword.
Cassius was overwhelmed and was knocked down by Avervanxon's magic along with his sword.
Seeing this scene, there was no joy of victory on Avervanxen's face.
"Isn't that magic sword too hard? Has its quality surpassed that of a divine weapon?"
He was very clear about the power of his previous attack. Although it was not a super-level magic, it was still considered the strongest attack of a LV7 magician.
Furthermore, that arrow also had an armor-piercing effect comparable to that of super-level magic.
Even though its power was weakened by the defensive magic of Norbo and Weissman, it was not so easy for Cassius to take it over.
Avervanxen couldn't help but click his tongue. The situation on the front battlefield was critical. The demon generals were retreating step by step, and the army suffered heavy casualties in the first round of charge.
In the current main battle, the abilities of Giles and Ruth are well known to their opponents. They are now at a disadvantage, and Hattie is making a final struggle with her life.
The balance of victory seemed to be slowly tilting towards Meath.
"If we don't make a breakthrough, we'll be in trouble when Sayin comes to support us."
On the other hand, he wanted to rely on his LV8 hidden skill to kill Miss.
Komis had long ago used the power of the Elf King to retrieve some of Tartarus' memories from deep within his own mind.
In those memories, Miss learned about the special features of LV8.
He also raised his level to LV8 in the World Tree and conducted experiments, found a way to deal with it, and made a large number of props for this purpose.
So he didn't take Avervanxen's methods seriously.
Avervanxon repeatedly hits a wall, and the anti-magic magic is completely ineffective. What Miss is least afraid of is the anti-magic magic.
After several rounds of fighting, the most he could do was to successfully hold back Miss.
It is far from enough to decide life and death.
Avervanxon could only open a gap from Cassius' side first.
Only when he and his clone join forces to deal with Miss, he has the confidence to kill Miss.
Looking at Cassius who was slowly crawling out of the ruins, Avervanxon's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
"Game time is over. It's time to reunite you with Cross."
He raised his arm, and the magic circle instantly condensed and slowly expanded, locking onto the ruins below.
The magic power surged and the momentum increased suddenly.
One magic circle after another appeared around Avervanxen, forming a huge magic circle group.
"If normal magic can't kill you, try super-level magic."
Cassius looked up into the sky, but the scorching light made it difficult for him to fully open his eyes.
He could not withstand such an attack no matter what.
"Is this the best we can do?"
Just as Avervanxon's magic was about to be cast, Cassius felt dazed and the scene changed drastically.
"Why am I in the air?"
He clearly remembered that he had been standing in the rubble.
Seeing Avervanxon not far away, Cassius suddenly looked down.
Sure enough, I saw a familiar figure at the place where I had just stood.
Just as he thought, Shana used space magic to swap their positions.
Avervanxen did not stop casting magic because of the change in target.
"What a good sister, let me help you."
Three black arrows appeared in the magic circle in front of him, which were even larger than the one that was shot at Cassius just now.
The pitch-black flames distorted the space, and faint electric light wrapped around the arrow, crackling.
Cassius' world seemed to have lost its sound and color at this moment, and everything turned black and white.
He had no time to stop Avervanxon's magic, let alone protect Shana below.
Despair groped up from the depths of his heart, tightly strangling Cassius' throat, almost suffocating him.
“Am I going to lose my family again this time?”
He recalled the experience of witnessing the death of "Shana" in the palace before, and even now, he felt deeply heartbroken.
"Why am I always so useless?"
"why..."
