A blue formation appeared out of thin air on the top of the volcano, and a figure gradually became real.
It's Erica.
Without interrupting the magic circle, she also increased the casting distance of the magic circle.
I have to say that this is indeed the most effective method she can think of now.
When second-level mages and third-level mages use teleportation magic, the biggest difference is the difference in magic power reserves.
The reserve of magic power also determines the distance of transmission.
Erica took a sip of the potion to recover some of her magic power, and then managed to release the teleportation circle with a sufficient distance.
And now, she has reached the top of the volcano.
In front of us is the mountain pass.
The temperature on the top of the mountain was no longer allowed for humans to touch. Erica had just stood on the ground, and the scorching heat instantly made her dizzy.
If she hadn't used some anti-inflammatory magic in advance, she would have fainted in an instant under the astonishing temperature.
She patted her chest and looked at her feet, looking shocked.
Putting her hands together, a white magic circle began to rotate in her hands, and a trace of chill overflowed from it.
She used magic on herself to barely keep her body at a constant temperature.
After doing this, Erica looked around.
Nearby, there was nothing.
Only the mouth of the volcano seemed to have just erupted, and the surrounding heated rocks were as red as red-hot iron.
Under the scorching heat, even the air becomes distorted.
Erica was eager to find some answers at the top of the mountain, but the scene after reaching the top was not what she expected.
The heat made her dizzy, and the feeling of exhaustion spread throughout her body.
"No... maybe I have to get out of here."
She still had enough magic power to support herself in using teleportation magic to leave. Even if she could only go down a short distance from the mountain, it would be better than just standing on the top of the mountain.
Her hands shone with light, and the magic circle took shape on her hands.
Suddenly, Erica's heart beat violently.
The newly condensed magic circle dissipated instantly.
A low mournful cry came from the mouth of the volcano.
The pain seemed to be transmitted to Erica's heart, and she knelt on the ground unbearably.
Both knees were instantly burned due to the high temperature on the ground.
"what happened……"
Erica struggled to spit out these few words, and she felt as if her heart was being strangled by something and she was in great pain.
The screams that only she could hear continued.
Suddenly, the volcano shook, and a stream of magma shot out from the crater.
Looking at the slowly flowing red magma, in Erica's opinion, it was like blood spurting out of a volcano in pain.
And now, it is about to become a weapon that takes away Erica's life.
Erica gritted her teeth.
Between life and death, she made a quick decision.
The remaining magical power surged out and turned into a barrier, isolating her from the flowing magma.
She doesn't want to die yet, at least, she doesn't want to die so unclearly and so painfully.
But the little magic she had left was no longer enough to support this barrier.
The magma penetrated into the barrier and was about to flow to Erica's legs.
Her body was shaking uncontrollably.
Almost the next second.
Within sight, a white light seemed to burst out from the crater of the volcano.
Erica seemed to have forgotten the upcoming crisis, and her eyes were fixed on the white light at the crater of the volcano.
"what is that?"
…
The mages and knights in the town of Sancher and halfway up the volcano all noticed the strong movement of the volcano at this moment.
"This is a sign that the volcano is about to erupt!"
A mage suddenly shouted, but everyone could see it now.
The lava bursting from the mountain pass is the most powerful proof.
All the third-level mages had solemn faces and were ready to release this terrifying war magic instantly under Duke Levi's order.
Powerful war magic is enough to completely suppress this volcano!
Duke Levi was very confident and had just prepared to cast magic. He even planned to ask Erica to continue delivering magic to him.
"Erica, can you still hold on?"
He asked out of habit, but no one answered him.
When Duke Levi looked back, Erica was nowhere to be seen.
"Erica!? Erica?"
Now Duke Levi was anxious. He looked around the stronghold, but could not see Erica.
"Why are you missing at this time!?"
Duke Levi became restless and disappeared at this critical moment when war magic was about to be activated.
If you run to the volcano, wouldn't it be extremely dangerous?
Duke Levi did not want to believe that Erica was so reckless, so he could only continue searching halfway up the mountain.
All the mages waiting to release magic were stunned. Why did Duke Levi suddenly stop the operation of the magic circle at this critical juncture?
Many third-level mages looked at Duke Levi and said anxiously:
"Your Majesty the Duke! If we don't operate the formation, the volcano will completely erupt!"
"It's too late!"
The Duke almost shouted, shouting at them:
"No! The formation must not be operated!"
"Your Majesty the Duke! What happened?"
Everyone was puzzled and could only ask quickly.
"Erica is missing!"
When Duke Levi told everyone the news, everyone was dumbfounded.
If Erica was on the top of the mountain at this time, then when the magic formation fell, she would probably be torn into pieces by the powerful magic pressure in an instant.
But if the magic is not activated.
The eruption of the volcano will turn into a huge disaster.
Duke Levi's eyes were splitting at the moment.
If he had to make a choice, he would rather give up his honor and status than even save those innocent lives.
He also wants to come back in exchange for Erica.
At this juncture, everyone is trying to persuade Duke Levi.
Even if we can be one second ahead of the volcano, we can prevent the disaster from coming!
However, as the leader of magic, Duke Levi did not speak.
The circle will just stay there.
Suddenly, a soaring white light burst out from the mouth of the volcano and shot straight into the sky!
Everyone watched the white light tearing through the black clouds and illuminating the sky, and were attracted by this scene.
In an instant, the sky revealed its true colors and illuminated the earth. The warm moonlight pierced the large haze and sprinkled it on everyone's shocked faces.
Tick tock -!
Soon, the raindrops jumped down from the sky one by one like elves after a disaster.
The rain poured down on the mountain top and hit the flowing lava.
As if by magic, it landed on Mount Vesuvius.
At this moment, the volcano lost all power.
The astonishing temperature dropped sharply.
The entire volcano is like high-temperature molten iron poured into a basin of water, emitting fierce steam.
No one will ever feel hot again.
On the contrary, they actually shivered under the sudden heavy rain.
The flowing lava gradually solidified at this time, and the flint gradually turned into its original black color.
"...The eruption of Mount Vesuvius has been suspended?"
A mage expressed the shock in the hearts of everyone present. The rain had wet Duke Levi's hair. He squinted his eyes and looked at the sky. He didn't know what he was thinking, and his expression was extremely complicated.
Near the top of the mountain, Gwen, who felt the raindrops, raised her head, looked at the sky with the bright moonlight, and breathed a sigh of relief.
She was very close to the white light just now, and she clearly felt the terrifying power.
The magma blocking the road has now cooled.
She stood up, held the silver sword in hand, and rushed towards the top of the mountain with a firm mind.
…
Erica froze on the spot, looking at the sky, her mind went blank for a moment.
When the magical power appeared, she was the closest.
That is definitely not a magical power that humans can possess.
She knelt in the rain, closed her eyes, and let the rain soak her.
At this moment, any crisis no longer exists.
Under that astonishing magic, all crises seemed to be completely resolved.
The eruption of Mount Vesuvius is like a wonderful joke played by God on everyone.
Its repeated jumping state made everyone think that it was about to erupt, and in the end, everyone's nerves were tense and they were on alert.
When the atmosphere reached its peak, the volcano ceased.
Its prank succeeded and caught everyone's attention.
Two lines of tears flowed from Erica's eyes, and even she couldn't tell whether it was rain or tears flowing down her face at this moment.
She was scared.
She almost died on the volcano.
It was almost impossible to save her body.
She almost paid the price for her pride and arrogance...
The cry attracted a flame hedgehog. In this amazing rain, its body was exuding steam soaked by the rain, blending perfectly with the environment.
It showed its fangs.
That distance was very, very close to Erica. It only needed to explode the strength of its legs, and with a short sprint, it could bite the opponent's throat.
As for Erica, her magic power was completely exhausted at this moment, and she was even mentally exhausted. She no longer had the slightest ability to resist.
She kept crying there all the time, unaware that the danger was approaching.
The next second, the flame hedgehog rushed towards her and let out a frightening cry.
Erica reacted, but her weakness no longer allowed her to make any resistance.
She will die.
"dad......"
boom! ! !
A fire snake as hot as lava brushed across Erica's cheek and hit the flame hedgehog.
All this happened in the blink of an eye, and the flame hedgehog instantly turned into ashes, leaving not even the slightest trace.
Erica froze on the spot, she forgot to cry and stared at this scene in a daze.
But he heard a familiar voice coming from behind him.
"I should have taught you."
"A mage always puts his own safety as his first goal."
She turned her head sharply and saw Victor swaying.
"Professor! You..."
She was extremely pleasantly surprised, but she didn't wait for herself to say a few more words. Suddenly, he saw Victor's body flowing with astonishing magma.
The magma fell to the ground, cooled rapidly, and dense steam floated up.
The next second, Victor passed out and fell directly on the edge of the crater.
Erica was stunned. She quickly ran to Victor's side and stretched out her hand to touch his body.
"Hiss...it hurts."
The astonishing temperature of Victor's body would cause him to be burned just by touching it.
"Victor! What's wrong with you? Victor!"
She didn't care about risking serious burns on her hands, so she used her last magic power to just put a thin layer of ice on her hands, and was about to lift Victor up.
The heat made her hands ache, but she worked desperately to help Victor up.
The next second, Erica's burned legs could no longer bear the pressure.
With a bang, both people fell to the ground.
Fortunately, the temperature of the volcano has completely dropped. Otherwise, the two of them would have been burned into meat patties.
For a moment, Erica's resentment rose from the bottom of her heart, and she hated herself.
I hate my own arrogance, and I hate my incompetence even more.
Everything I learned in the magic academy seemed to become a burden.
But she stubbornly tried to lift Victor up again and again, even though her whole body was burned by his temperature.
Erica hated herself for being weak, but she would not regret having reached the top of the mountain.
If he was not there, who else could notice the seriously injured Victor?
He will definitely die here.
Erica tried again and again, getting up, falling, getting up, falling.
Even though the distance she could move was barely two meters, she continued.
Without magic power, you can only rely on your own body.
Victor saved her, so now, she wants to save Victor too.
"Little girl."
A sudden voice sounded in her ears, and Erica, who was struggling to lift Victor up again, was suddenly stunned.
She looked left and right, trying to find the source of the sound.
But no matter how hard she searched, there was no one on the top of the mountain.
Only, standing at the crater, was a one-eyed crow.
It was Victor's pet and was inseparable from Victor.
Erica even fed it once.
Suddenly, Erica's eyes widened.
No matter how hard the rain falls.
The crow's feathers never touched a drop of rainwater.
Its feathers seemed to have been polished and smooth, and it looked like a unique presence in the rain.
The one-eyed crow opened its ugly beak, and a blue light flashed under its one eye, revealing an aura of wisdom.
"Do you really want to save him?"
