LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 15: Sorcerer Lasputin (Part 1)
"Be careful! That guy is still alive." Hearing Aya's urgent notification, Ulysses immediately notified the mercenary group, but it was too late.
With a "bang", the tornado vortex with white flames suddenly exploded, and countless wind blades and white flames flew around, and many of them flew toward the mercenary group. The cyan wind blade and white flame directly hit the shield wall of the mercenary group, and instantly blasted the shield wall through several gaps. The mercenary who was hit by the wind blade on the shield was lucky, but was knocked back a few steps. The mercenary who was hit by the shield by the white flame burned his hands almost instantly by the heat from the shield, and the hands that were slower to let go were almost cooked. Just this time, more than a dozen mercenaries who lost their combat effectiveness appeared in the mercenary group. However, the nightmare of the mercenary group has just begun.
A black figure rushed into the formation of the mercenary group from the gap in the shield wall at lightning speed. Several blades of sword light shining white moonlight flashed, and several people in the mercenary group were chopped into pieces. The blood splashed all over the sky from their fragments and scattered to other people, causing some mercenaries to panic.
"Don't panic, form a circular formation and surround this guy. The shield hand is in front and the spearman is behind, limiting his range of action." Faced with this unexpected scene, the three mercenary commanders immediately acted. The response. The best way to deal with agile opponents is to compress his moving space, so that his speed loses the space to play.
The orders of the three regiment leaders were quickly implemented, and the mercenaries of the mercenary group immediately began to change their formation. After paying the lives of more than a dozen mercenaries, they finally surrounded the enemy. After being restricted in the range of movement, the enemy's appearance began to appear, still the masked murderer. But no matter who read his current typeface, no one will think he is "human" anymore. If he was a bit "human" not long ago, now he has become an out-and-out demon.
The masked man who had been attacked by the Wind Dragon Technique and Blazing Explosion turned abnormally black, but it was not the scorched black, but a strange black that resembled the black mud in the swamp. On that weird black body, all the wounds have disappeared, replaced by black veins and blood vessels. Under the shining of the moonlight, it can be clearly seen that those tendons and blood vessels are actually moving, and they are constantly walking around the masked man as if there is life. I don't know what the mask was made of, and it was not damaged under such an attack. The eyes in the mask had turned blood red at this time, and endless murderous aura was radiating from the inside to the outside.
The masked man surrounded by the mercenary reunion formation finally showed his terrifying power to the people. With lightning-like speed and extremely strong power, he now has the slightest dull look of standing still and being attacked just now. What made all the members of the mercenary group even more frightened was that the defensive power and recovery power of that weird black body had increased several times compared to not long ago. The arrows that could have been shot into his body were now all bounced away by his muscles, and the fireball and wind blade could no longer inflict any damage on him, even if he could shake his body. Only a few magic arrows and the magic issued by a few senior wizards can leave some wounds on his body, but under the action of his recovery force before the victory, these wounds healed almost instantaneously.
Blood, crazy splashes, broken arms and limbs, flying all over the sky, people who see this scene can't help wondering whether they are in the world or in hell...On this street, this murderer is constantly harvesting In his life, in just tens of minutes, hundreds of mercenaries had been divided by his short knife. Any formation was useless before his lightning-like speed and abnormal immortality. All the mercenary group could do, as if only delayed their own death. In this situation, Ulysses' light magic is useless at all. The mercenaries attacked by the masked man were all turned into pieces, and the healing technique could not save them at all. In this chaos, other spells were useless.
"All the wizards below level 4 retreat, and all fighters below level 5 retreat!" Watching the masked man slaughter his subordinates frantically. The eyes of the three heads of the mercenary regiment were full of bloodshot eyes. These are all elite troops in their mercenary group! This night was killed by this murderer more than half, how can we not make them angry. But anger returns to anger, and the biggest task at present is to remove the only elites they have left. Judging from the current situation, the wizards below level 4 and fighters below level 5 were unable to cause any harm to this murderer at all, instead hindering the attacks of several powerful men.
After getting the command of the regiment leader, all the weaker mercenaries flew and started to evacuate this death street. Only three heads of mercenary regiments, four deputy heads, Ulysses and the mysterious man in black cloak and veil remained. This mysterious man has been staying with the three commanders since the Mercenary Guild, but he didn't take any action at all in the battle just now, I don't know where it is sacred.
"Mr. Lasputin, I am going to ask you next! When we surround the guy, please use powerful magic to destroy him. The reward will be the amount you proposed." Ulysses was surprised. What's more, Yabu, the oldest fire wizard among the three heads, lowered his head to the mysterious man named Lasputin, and begged him to take action to eliminate the murderer.
"Captain Perth, what the **** is going on? Why did Captain Yabu bow his head to the man named Lasputin and beg him to take action? What is the sacred man named Lasputin?" Ulysses quietly Asked the leader of the Gale Regiment around him.
"You mean him! He is a mercenary from other places. After he learned about the news of the murderer offering a reward, he took the initiative to find us and asked to cooperate with us to complete this task. But his asking price is too high, we Did not immediately agree." Perth smiled bitterly, obviously the other party's asking price exceeded their bottom line.
"How much does he want? Thirty thousand or forty thousand." In Ulysses's eyes, this was an ridiculously high asking price. Although the three major mercenary groups can each get 60,000 to 70,000 gold coins if they complete their tasks, they must be distributed to the whole group, and it will only cost tens to hundreds of gold coins to spread to everyone. It can be seen that they promised to give Ulysses 10,000 gold coins, which is enough to show the weight of Ulysses in their minds.
"No, it's one hundred thousand!" What Ulysses could not have imagined was a number that was spit out from Perth's mouth.
"One hundred thousand! What qualifications does he have to have so much! What level is he? Is it a seventh-level powerhouse!" Ulysses really couldn't figure it out.
"No! He hasn't reached the seventh level. But he can be said to be the strongest among the sixth-level powerhouses in the world. He is a sixth-level magician with the three elements of fire, wind, and thunder. And judging from his voice, he will never be over 30 years old, and 90% or more may become a level 7 powerhouse. With such strength, the reward he proposed is actually not too much. Excessive. So we decided to let him follow us. If we can't complete the task with our strength alone, we promised him and asked him to take action." Perth sighed and explained to Ulysses.
