It’s hard to resist!
Legendary mage!
No matter what profession a person is called a legend, it probably proves that this guy is not easy to mess with at all.
But...I have some doubts.
I am also a person who is wandering on the edge of legend, so I have a little understanding of the status of legend.
The legend of magicians mainly comes from the gap in knowledge and the freedom in the use of magic.
In other words, the total amount of magic power is only the basis, or stepping stone, to enter the legend, and the use or construction of legendary magic is the most critical factor in judging a mage...
And if these things are not close to legend, basically no one knows about them.
I'm a little confused——
Can such a sacrifice lead to knowledge in the ordinary sense?
What is obtained through ritual actions should be the power to temporarily trigger a certain phenomenon. However, the acquisition of knowledge should be an enlightening understanding or a process of accumulation for humans. The sacrifices produced by rituals can fill up the contents of countless magic classics. He entered Sheld's mind, but there was no way for Sheld to understand this kind of thing.
Legendary magic is not like ordinary magic that can be released by copying the gourd. Its principle is closer to the fundamental rules of the world. By obeying these rules and using magic as the triggering force to form an effect like dominoes, it can be released. Legendary magic.
If the magic released before Legend was all about using magic power to forcibly create or achieve a certain effect, Legend Magic is a "miracle" that can move a thousand pounds.
Of course, this has nothing to do with my talent.
In other words, I don't believe that Shield will become a real legendary mage after the sacrifice, just like I might not be able to answer the question even if I open the book and take the exam.
In short, the principles should be similar...
My thoughts unfolded in an instant and then retracted in an instant. I looked towards the high platform and stepped lightly.
The ground beneath my feet collapsed slightly when I exerted force. I used this strength to quickly pass through the group of cultists divided by Phoenix. Then when I reached the high platform, I jumped high without hesitation, and finally jumped and slashed towards Sheld seems to be casual.
The sword hit the translucent, gem-like imaginary shield, which was a dark magic shield composed of magic power.
Should we use magic?
In theory, this magic can be cast at high speed and can be counteracted if the magic structure in a small area is synchronized. In that case, there is no need to work hard to break the magic shield. However, this method will directly expose the profession of the magic swordsman. Whether it will be disadvantaged in the future is still unknown.
But unfortunately, reality gave me a choice directly.
Just when I was hesitating, Phoenix had already slaughtered all the cultists with a one-sided advantage. Then his angel-like body appeared behind Shield, and he slashed with the shining sword with indifference. And down.
Resist the ring of fire!
It’s the same move as the guy before——
He forcibly controlled his body to escape from the range of the magic. When he raised his head, he found that the magic did not seem to have any effect on Phoenix. He just waved his hand and chopped it off, and the seemingly tyrannical Sheld was already dead on the ground. .
······ah?
What's going on?
Not only was I a little confused, but Phoenix seemed a little confused as well.
Maybe you didn't expect this guy to die so easily?
It was like a powerful-looking person was preparing to fight one against five with his ultimate move, and then was killed by a knife with his backhand.
What a flashy thing, take my knife.jpg
"Is it over?"
I secretly raised the priority in my mind that this guy might be a brave man, and then by the way, put his strength on the level of a brave man who I would definitely not be able to defeat. To be honest, I think I really have no strength if he doesn’t activate this state. Maybe I can win, but after opening it, I thought that I might not be able to get rid of my hair.
"It seems-" Phoenix hesitated, as if he was about to draw a conclusion, but another person's voice rang out.
"It doesn't seem to be over." Sophia looked at the high platform expressionlessly. "After the death of the main priest, the ceremony should have stopped logically, but now it is still running normally."
I came back to my senses and carefully observed the blood-red lines on the high altar, and found that it was indeed emitting an evil light that flickered on and off.
"Save people first." I didn't hesitate to use the hilt of my sword to hit the runes connecting several children. However, when I touched it, I realized that these lines were not carved with seals, but more like inscriptions. It looks like someone used paint on Earth.
Is this a temporary formation?
——No, can this thing really be successful? ! What if my hand slips and I draw the wrong picture?
Wait!
A strange detail suddenly flashed through my mind——
Zik's sacrificial knife... why is it not on Sheld's body? Shouldn't he be the officiant?
After realizing something was wrong, I turned around suddenly and looked at Sophia, nervously shouting: "Sofia, be careful—"
The blade emerged from her chest, and the red color instantly dyed Sophia's clothes. However, she just took a step forward indifferently and slashed back without hesitation.
Ding--
Sparks flew.
It illuminated Salia's evil face.
"You're not dead?" Although it was still that lively voice, there was a lot of arrogance and contempt in the tone.
Sophia frowned slightly, put the sword at her side with both hands, and said softly: "Next time, don't follow your professional habit and stab the right side of your heart. My heart is on the left side."
"Ah - I'm sorry." She stretched out her delicate tongue and gently licked the blood on the alien blade, "I originally planned to let you end the pain quickly, but since you have chosen to endure it, there is nothing you can do about it. Oh...Oh, your blood is so delicious."
that is--!
"Salia, how could you hurt Sophia like this? Where did Ellie go?!" Phoenix's frightened and angry voice came from the side, but I already understood most of it.
Thalia...is no longer Thalia, I'm afraid she is just a being using Thalia's body now.
"Oh, you mean the little girl who looked like an idiot? Because she was too noisy, I killed her."
Her eyes involuntarily shifted to the bag around her waist, only to find that blood was seeping out of it.
The results speak for themselves.
In that case, the ceremony had already started at that time?
The unknown existence that was supposed to befall the user of the Zik sacrificial knife...
So that’s what happened.
