Chapter 0948 Both sides suffer

The St. Martin Knights finally began to retreat!

After several hopeless charges, they finally realized the huge gap in strength between themselves and the enemy in front of them, so they gave up fighting and began to retreat to the distance.

When they came, there were about two or three hundred of them, but when they retreated, the team was sparsely populated with less than a hundred people.

From beginning to end, Grimm did not leave the campfire for a moment. Except for attacking the 2nd-level branch leader once, the rest of the St. Martin Knights died from the flaming fist of the terrifying elemental magic machine. And the sword girl Katie was surprisingly quiet and did not take the opportunity to attack Grimm.

Of course, it is also possible that she had no chance at all!

After all, even when the "battle" was the most intense, Grimm's attention was still 80% on the sword girl Katie.

However, facing the pure holy light left by the loyal and brave 2nd-level silver knight, Grimm and Katie couldn't help but lick their lips lightly, and a look of hesitation appeared on their faces.

This pure holy light in front of him obviously belongs to another branch of the power system, which is completely different from the knowledge and transformation route admired by wizards. Instead, it overlaps with the belief system of the world of gods. It's just that most of the gods believe in a certain god with entity, while the wooden-headed knights in the Envik plane believe in a kind of illusory spirit or belief.

Holy light? A light full of sacred and noble beliefs?

What's the use of believing in it? Could it be that this light can hear the spiritual prayers of believers and give them various gifts?

Due to the wizards' natural contempt for the belief in gods, Grimm originally disdained the so-called holy light belief. But... now, when a loyal and pure holy light believer died in front of him, his body turned into ashes, and his last trace of soul was actually placed in a ray of pure white holy light floating in front of him, this brought Grimm a great spiritual shock!

This ray of holy light is too fragile!

If Grimm lets go of the Burning Field, a breeze blowing from the wilderness will make it disappear, and it will never exist again. However, Grimm has a feeling that this ray of holy light and the soul on it will not disappear just like that, but will gather somewhere under the guidance of the plane laws, thus becoming part of a greater will.

Although this feeling is absurd, Grimm firmly believes that it will be so.

The source of confidence lies in the chip's analysis of the laws of the Envik plane.

With Grimm's strength, it is not enough to decipher and analyze the underlying laws of the plane world, so the chip is more of an exploration and utilization of the plane laws, and there are still insurmountable power thresholds from real control.

And the faith of holy light undoubtedly belongs to the rare category of high-level power in the Envik plane, and its research value is definitely above those underlying basic laws.

Now, there is such a shortcut to peek into the power of the faith of holy light in front of us. Although it is very different from the original power of wizards, it is also a good object worth studying.

"Ding, sensing the existence of pure spiritual energy, can be captured, absorbed or destroyed... Please make a choice..."

Grimm can understand capturing and destroying. But what is this absorption used for?

"Chip, what is the effect of absorbing this holy light?"

"Ding, this is an extremely pure and condensed spiritual energy. After removing the spiritual impurities inside, it can quickly enhance the spiritual attributes of the subject..."

Enhance spiritual attributes?

At this moment, Grimm's hair almost stood up.

Since becoming a wizard, he has explored and searched for items and means that can quickly enhance spiritual attributes countless times. Unfortunately, apart from the meditation technique of the wizard system, there is almost no other method and means.

Of course, some extremely rare wizard resources can still be done, such as the elf holy water of the Faen plane, the spiritual mixture sold by the Silver Alliance, and the giant brain marrow that once appeared in the wizard market...Unfortunately, these things are often high-level resources above level 4 or 5, and Grimm is not qualified to obtain them at all.

What is the biggest factor restricting wizards from advancing? Naturally, it is the slow improvement of their own basic strength.

With the elemental wizard route that Grimm is taking now, his main focus is on mental power.

After Grimm was promoted to level 3, he experienced a period of rapid growth in mental power, but he only managed to push his mental power from 31 points to 32 points. Since reaching 32 points, the speed of mental power improvement has gradually slowed down.

Grimm once estimated that according to the current speed of mental power improvement, it would probably take 10-20 years of hard work and meditation day after day to improve 1 point. Moreover, the closer each level is to the end, the slower the speed of mental power improvement.

Many wizards often exhaust their lives and fail to improve their mental power to the threshold of promotion.

If hiding in the wizard tower and suffering can successfully promote, the 4th level wizards in the entire wizard world would not be so rare. If they don't try their best to find some resources that can speed up this process, most wizards can only die of despair in their own wizard towers.

Therefore, when he suddenly heard such a prompt from the chip, Grimm, who had been calm just now, became a little dazed.

In a daze, Grimm reached out to grab the swaying strange holy light.

The fire beside him suddenly dimmed, and the sharp whistling wind immediately resounded throughout the world.

At some point, the sword lady Katie, who was 200 meters away, had appeared beside Grimm, holding two metal spikes in her hands, and had pierced the translucent flame barrier in front of Grimm deeply inward. The five-sided metal blade wheel strangely went around behind Grimm, cutting the flame barrier frantically from different angles.

No matter how strong the protection of the level 3 flame barrier was, it could not withstand the full-strength attack of a level 3 mechanical witch, so it only lasted 1.7 seconds before it shattered instantly.

After the flame barrier shattered into sparks all over the sky, the next thing to be attacked was Grimm's protective force field that mixed spiritual and flame energy.

This was also his last protective force field!

The elemental magic machine that was still driving the St. Martin Knights on the periphery roared and rushed towards the fire frantically. The plague poison spirit, who was swinging his legs and sitting on Grimm's shoulder, screamed and issued a death curse to the sword lady Katie who was close at hand.

But one of them was 120 meters away, and distant water could not quench thirst; the other was only level 2, and it was difficult to shake the attack of the level 3 mechanical witch.

Therefore, the only one who could save Grimm was himself!

Less than a second of mental confusion brought Grimm to the crisis of death, which also showed the cruelty and horror of high-level wizards in battle.

The two metal thorns were still moving forward persistently, aiming directly at Grimm's forehead.

The distance between the two sides was less than half a meter.

The "sharp" and "penetrating" witchcraft enchanted on the metal thorns continued to work, exploding layers of flame barriers and energy fields into fine fireworks and fire fragments all over the sky. And her own strength of 31 points was the driving force for the metal thorns to move forward steadily, otherwise the elemental turbulence formed after the explosion of the flame barrier and energy field would be enough to disrupt any subsequent attacks.

The death curse of the plague poison spirit burst out with all its strength turned into a gray smoke, sinking into Katie's body, and a gray flash appeared on her face with distinct flesh and metal. However, her 36-point physique was enough to ensure that she could withstand the first wave of the death curse, and she still pushed the metal thorns forward steadily.

The sharp part of the metal thorns, which was flashing with dim light, was less than 5 centimeters away from Grimm's forehead.

The last layer of the protective force field was seriously sunken, and the translucent force field wall was full of spider-web-like fine cracks, which might suddenly collapse in the next second.

Once the energy protection disappeared, with Grimm's simple and rough close combat skills, when facing a hunting wizard like Dao Ji, there was simply no possibility of survival.

Bi Bo...

In the campfire beside him, a piece of dry wood made a slight explosion that was almost undetectable.

The steadily burning campfire suddenly surged, and the red flames instantly condensed into a tall flame figure.

The light and shadows in the field swayed, and silently, the tall figure and Grimm, who was sitting cross-legged, strangely exchanged positions.

The protective force field broke, and the metal spikes instantly penetrated the eyebrows of the tall flame figure, blasting the flame head into sparks. The metal spikes and flying blade wheels of the sword girl Katie stirred and completely destroyed the flame figure in an instant.

Grimm's angry roar full of pain suddenly sounded in the void.

Then, the flame figure standing on the campfire turned into Grimm, and angrily threw two huge fireballs at Katie.

Dongdong...

Two huge mushroom clouds of fire quickly emerged beside the campfire. The sword girl Katie screamed, and her whole body turned into a rolling sword array, forcing away the crazy and raging red flame storm, and appeared a hundred meters away in a flash. Another flash, it appeared at the end of the sight, and then disappeared without a trace.

Although the sword girl fled quickly, Grimm still saw it clearly. The superimposed fire damage of the two violent fireballs had burned half of her body skin into a layer of charcoal. Although such injuries are not fatal, they can be regarded as serious injuries.

Therefore, knowing that Grimm is right beside her and has lost his elemental protection, the sword lady still chooses to escape first instead of staying to fight him.

Although the fire man just killed is not Grimm's body, he is also an important character like the flame clone. The direct annihilation of part of his mental consciousness by the sword lady is also a big injury to Grimm.

Moreover, the damage is to the mental power that the elemental wizard cherishes most, which is not bad enough!

On the other hand, although the sword lady Katie seems to be more seriously injured from the outside, it is just a simple flesh wound. As long as she is given enough time and enough flesh and blood, it only takes 3 days to heal such injuries.

And it is almost impossible for Grimm to repair the mental trauma caused by the annihilation of the flame clone within 3 days.

It is precisely because of the full understanding of each other's injuries that the sword lady Katie gave up the seemingly good opportunity in front of her and chose a more stable and safer way of fighting!

Besides, since that damned fire wizard was able to ambush a flame clone in the fire beforehand, it was hard to guarantee that he had no other trump cards. If he was forced into a desperate fight with me, even the sword lady Katie would not be able to escape the dying backlash of a powerful 3rd-level fire wizard.

So, on this not-so-peaceful night, the two 3rd-level wizards only fought for one round, which took less than 2 seconds in total, and ended up with both sides losing!

Of course, what made Grimm even more distressed was that the damned sword lady actually used the blade wheel to completely destroy the holy light before running away.

Grimm could no longer suppress the anger in his chest!
