Chapter 731: Battle between Mages (3)

The words "fight to the death" made Ebony Maw, who was standing opposite Sherlock, have his hair stand on end in an instant. He no longer cared about being elegant or not, and began to retreat violently as a subconscious reaction.

Of course, if it was just a simple escape, there would be no need to make a fuss about it here. The moment Ebony Maw retreated violently, the energy weapons of the warships in the sky fired at Sherlock like raindrops.

At the same time, Ebony Maw would naturally not let go of the items on the ground. It can be said that as long as Ebony Maw could use the items, he would lift them into the sky almost immediately to block Sherlock.

Of course, Sherlock would not let go of the objects that were temporarily given life and left on the ground. The entire ground fell into chaos in an instant.

Countless objects began to fight each other, and it looked as if they were desperately trying to pull the objects that were about to be lifted into the sky back to hell.

Sherlock, who was almost surrounded from all sides, did not feel panic at all. After showing a cruel smile to Ebony Maw, the next second Sherlock simply ignored the energy beams like raindrops in the sky and the objects like locusts on the ground, and chased after the retreating Ebony Maw like a cannonball.

Because of the distance, the first things to reach Sherlock were the messy items on the ground lifted by Ebony Maw. Although they were of different sizes and not every one of them could pose a threat to Sherlock, the advantage in numbers alone was enough to make people feel scared.

Of course, Sherlock was definitely not one of the cowardly people. Seeing those messy objects rushing towards him with bared fangs and claws, a blood-red flame suddenly appeared on the tip of the Eternal Spear in Sherlock's hand.

The moment the flame appeared, Sherlock waved the Eternal Spear in his hand directly at the messy things attacking from the ground.

As Sherlock moved, the blood-red flames expanded into a large sea of ​​fire in an instant. The flames burned fiercely and almost instantly enveloped Sherlock in flames.

It was not until this time that it became obvious that the flame was not pure blood red. In the flame that was constantly rolling like a sea of ​​blood, there was actually a wisp of something like black mist.

The magical thing is that although the flames were so fierce, like the judgment at the end of the world, this flame that seemed like a punishment from God could not make anyone feel the slightest bit of heat.

But what is even more magical is that these flames, whose temperature cannot be felt, can turn any object they touch into ashes in an instant, and they are not even picky about the material of the object.

Seeing this, Ebony Maw's face changed drastically, and he even subconsciously quickened his retreat speed. After all, Ebony Maw couldn't feel the temperature of the flames for several days, but after seeing the fate of those items, Ebony Maw said that he didn't want to have anything to do with this flame at all!

Of course, although this sea of ​​fire successfully blocked the attacks of physical matter, it was somewhat powerless against energy weapons.

However, Sherlock did not dodge the energy weapons that fell from the sky. The hexagonal magic shield on his body gathered together and wrapped Sherlock in it. Those energy weapons that were supposed to be world-destroying could only cause ripples on the magic shield when they came into contact with the magic shield released by Sherlock.

Yes, all of Ebony Maw's methods combined couldn't even break Sherlock's defense, and he couldn't even stop Sherlock's steps!

Seeing Sherlock rushing out from the flames that looked like a pool of blood and flying towards him like a hungry ghost from hell, Ebony Maw obviously began to panic.

Now Ebony Maw no longer cared about being elegant or not, and hurriedly drew circles with his hands in front of him. Along with Ebony Maw's movements, a large number of transparent long needles, just like the ones created by telekinesis mixed with mental power at the beginning, appeared around Ebony Maw almost in a group.

At the moment when this large piece of transparent needles was formed, Ebony Maw's blue-gray face without a nose, which looked like Squidward, obviously turned more than one degree paler.

Seeing that his attack was completed, Ebony Maw fired those transparent needles at Sherlock like a machine gun without any hesitation.

Seeing Ebony Maw starting his final struggle, Sherlock was not panicked at all. No, it should be said that everything was going according to Sherlock's plan. Sherlock seemed to be unable to see those transparent long needles and still rushed towards Ebony Maw along the original path.

But just when Ebony Maw's long needle was about to touch Sherlock, and even when an expression of triumph appeared on Ebony Maw's face, Sherlock suddenly disappeared right under Ebony Maw's nose.

Yes, it disappeared suddenly, and the magic that could do this was very simple, it was the most common Apparition!

The only difference is that unlike the original situation where there would be a space distortion of about one second when it was activated, during two years of training, Sherlock has made significant upgrades to the Apparition by combining the magic theories of Kamar-Taj and Asgard.

The current Apparition still has the space distortion that would normally occur, but the frequency of its occurrence is now negligible.

Sherlock has done a special experiment. If a 120-frame 4k camera is used to shoot, the space distortion image that appears when Sherlock apparates on a planet with stable space will definitely not exceed one frame!

Such speed can almost be regarded as negligible, and it can be basically equated with the instant step in Bleach and the Flying Thunder God in Naruto.

Seeing Sherlock disappear right before his eyes, Ebony Maw's confident look froze on his face in an instant, and his noseless octopus face was full of surprise.

But no matter what, Ebony Maw is the top figure among F4 under Thanos. He has participated in many battles, big and small. After fighting for a long time, Ebony Maw still has the battlefield instincts.

The moment he lost Sherlock's sight, Ebony Maw almost immediately stopped retreating, and then the powerful telekinesis directly enveloped himself, using his own abilities to dodge to the left in a way that almost violated physics.

It was this subconscious action of Ebony Maw that really saved his life. The sharp blade of the Spear of Eternity in Sherlock's hand almost passed by Ebony Maw's chest.
