Chapter 261 A battle spanning thousands of years (Part 1)

Les's heart was beating fast at this moment: If he had believed in nonsense like "freezing can make students grow faster" before and hadn't prepared the life-saving necklace for Daphne, then Daphne would be dead now.

No one could receive that terrible spell without any defense, and he was no exception.

The magic source of that spell was very familiar to him. It was the style of his old friend. This made Les a little confused. She didn't know what was happening to her - wouldn't she have the same symptoms as Ravenclaw? That's too coincidental.

The three of them retreated to the edge of the stone door little by little. At this time, Les had already constructed several layers of defensive magic in front of him. Even if the figure appeared to attack again, he would be sure to block Daphne and the others' attacks.

Seeing the "prey" trying to escape, the figure no longer hid and appeared directly, launching an astonishingly powerful attack spell at Les.

This time, Les had a clear view of how the figure appeared: it emerged directly from the sand on the ground.

boom!

A magic spell flew like a meteor and hit hard on the multi-layered defensive spell created by Rice. While working hard to support the defensive spell, Rice mobilized his own domain and formed it in front of him. A wall made of mud.

The two-pronged approach was extremely effective. After the spell fired by the figure shattered Les's carefully constructed defensive magic, it was already at the end of its strength and hit the mud wall, only splashing a mud flower.

"You go out first and return to the town. I will follow you in a moment." Daphne and Astoria couldn't help but push them out of the hall, and with a wave of his hand, he closed the stone door again.

He wanted to drag the figure here to prevent it from chasing him out.

He didn't dare to guarantee that the monster in front of him could only stay in the hall. If it could escape, it would be a pursuit. Once things develop to this point, attrition will only happen sooner or later - it will be difficult for him to take care of the two students during the retreat.

But fighting a positional battle here is different. You can drag the monster in the sand here after paying some price. It would be very simple to wait for Daphne and the others to run away and find an opportunity to escape.

After Daphne and Astoria were pushed out of the hall by Les, they looked at the closed doors with extremely ugly expressions on their faces.

"Les!" Daphne couldn't help shouting at the door, and at the same time punched the stone door hard. The force of the Shimen's rebound made her hands numb, but she didn't even notice it.

Here it is again...

I can't do anything to help.

Daphne couldn't help but think: If she had blocked the spell just now with a wonderful defensive spell, would she have been able to stay and fight alongside him?

"Sister, hurry up and don't let down Les's hard work." Astoria took Daphne's arm and advised her sincerely.

The spell just made her realize clearly that fighting at that level was not something that she and her sister could get involved in. Rice was buying time for them, and now they were doing him a favor by running out.

Her sister's words woke Daphne up, she took a deep breath and prepared to leave from here. But when her eyes glanced at the stone door in front of her, she was stunned: she remembered that this door was blown into a big hole by Les, but why did the hole disappear now?

Daphne lowered her head and found that the floor had become flat again, and an unpleasant emotion arose in her heart.

She quickly looked up and found that the eyes of the two stone statues that had been honest before were now red - the destroyed eyes had also automatically recovered.

"Astoria, be careful!" she shouted, and at the same time, she released a defensive spell in front of herself and her sister.

Astoria also discovered something unusual about the kobold statue. She made a prompt decision and released defensive magic while pulling her sister out and running away.

At this time, the two statues had completely come to life, waving the spears in their hands and stabbing them at them.

Being buried deep underground and isolated from the air, and with the magic protection on the spearhead, the bronze spear was as sharp as when it was first cast. It broke Daphne's defensive magic with just one blow, and was then defeated by Astoria's spell. Can't stand it.

Seeing this, Daphne and Astoria no longer hesitated and directly used their flying magic to float in mid-air and speed towards the outside of the ruins. The two stone statues took heavy steps and chased after them.

"Why are they catching up?!" Daphne couldn't help but yelled.

"Nonsense, use your brain to think about it!" Astoria put a barrier spell behind herself while trying her best to complain about her sister.

These two statues are used to deter thieves! How could I just hit you once and then let you go? Should I at least chase you to the palace gate?

Although the movements of the two statues seemed a bit slow, due to their height of ten meters, they could move forward very far with each step, so they could "bite" tightly behind the two of them, making it impossible for them to distance themselves.

Those obstacle spells have almost no effect when they are hit on them. They seem to be able to overcome the resistance caused by the spells with just a little force.

Astoria was heartbroken, turned her head, and blasted out the attack spell stored in the bracelet.

Watching her sister release the spell stored in the bracelet, Daphne felt sad: her necklace was destroyed, otherwise she would be able to cooperate with her sister to release attack magic... But at the same time, she was a little lucky, at this moment she He had already realized that it was the magic spell attached to the necklace that saved his life.

Les never seemed to mention it, but apparently his necklace had a hidden function.

But the necklace has been destroyed... Daphne's mood was extremely complicated.

Astoria's spell accurately hit the kobold statue on the left. After a loud noise like an earthquake, the kobold statue was blown into two pieces.

The collapsed stone statue also blocked the footsteps of another stone statue, and Daphne and Astoria took the opportunity to distance themselves from it.

Seeing that he could not catch up with the two intruders, another stone statue took a javelin from his back and threw it at the two of them, but it was easily dodged by two girls who were good at flying.

…

While Daphne and Astoria were fighting the kobolds, Les was in a tough fight.

The figure no longer lurked, but stood openly and openly in the middle of the hall, releasing various attack magic towards Les.

Les also took the opportunity to clearly see the face of the figure opposite him. Although he was a little older, he was absolutely sure that it was the face of his old friend Helga Hufflepuff.

The only difference is that she is a clay doll.
