Dazzling light fell from the sky, like a shooting star.

The moment it hit the ground, the originally dark forest was illuminated, and the leaves swayed uncontrollably with the wild air currents, and both the adventurers and Elise couldn't help but retreat to avoid the sudden storm.

And as soon as it was too late, just as Elise retreated, a spear burst out of the dazzling light and shot in the direction where the girl was. Seeing the galloping spear, Elise's face sank, and she threw the scimitar in her hand at the attacker in front of her without hesitation, and then the whole person retreated quickly towards the depths of darkness like an illusory shadow.

And the speed of the other party was even faster than Elise imagined - almost at the same time that the light tore through the darkness and shone on Elise, the spear had already arrived in front of Elise, and it was about to penetrate the heart of the girl in front of her.

At the same time, Elise's eyes widened, and those bright red eyes became sharp for a moment, and then the next moment, wild negative energy flames completely erupted from her body, and like a roaring beast, she opened its mouth and pounced forward.

"Huh?!"

Seeing the eruption of this flame, the other party also seemed to be greatly surprised, and in the face of Elise's attack, he stopped almost immediately, and at the same time the spear in his hand was inserted into the ground hard, and then shouted.

"Solid soil, give me a shield!"

With the roar of the other party, the earth roared, and then an incomparably strong earthen wall was erected out of thin air. stood between the two. Immediately after that, the flames of negative energy slammed headlong into the earthen wall, quickly turning into invisible. And at this moment, Elise has also regrouped. She put her hands down, and the shield of fire appeared beside her. But even so. Elise also had a solemn face, and from the blow of the opponent just now, she could confirm that the other party at least had the strength of the peak of the master, and it was even possible that she had entered the legendary realm. The reason why she was able to force the other party back was entirely because the sorcerer's fire of negative energy was inherently restrained by a qiē spellcasting class, but this restraint also had a limit -- at least for the current Elise, she was not qualified to fight such a powerful person.

The smoke cleared.

The earthen wall was disintegrated, completely damaged by the impact of the negative energy flames, and at this moment, that figure also revealed his true face.

It was a man who looked no more than forty or fifty years old, and he was a burly man. Nearly two meters tall, he wore a strange outfit altered from a mage's robe, and on the outside he wore the leather armor that warriors often wore. If it weren't for the spell he had just unleashed, it would have been impossible for this man who was more than two meters tall, burly, and full of muscles all over his body to be a bodybuilding instructor to associate him with the spellcaster -- on the contrary, it would have been more convincing to say that he was a savage or a warrior.

"Wizard?"

The man patted the dust off his body. Shake off a few broken jewels -- Elise tried her best to burst out of the fire of negative energy, even he didn't dare to face it head-on, if it weren't for being an archmage, he could be regarded as having a few defensive magic props on his body, maybe he would have really been injured by this little guy. But now. His complexion was also not very good-looking, and he saw that the man stared coldly at Elise in front of him, with a burning intent of war in his eyes.

"I didn't expect that. It's a sorcerer......... Looking at your outfit, you don't look like someone from the Glitter Gold Empire. Who are you? Why attack our convoys? ”

“…………………”

In response to the man's inquiry, Elise frowned. But nothing was said. The strength of the other party is far superior to his own, and the mage is not completely invincible, from the battle just now, Elise can sense that the other party knows the combat characteristics of the mage very well, if he uses a magic shield instead of a strength barrier to resist his own negative energy fire, then Elise is sure enough that he will not be able to eat and walk around. However, the other party's reaction was really fast, and when he noticed that something was wrong, he immediately chose to build an earthen wall to create an entity to block the invasion of negative energy flames, and minimize the power of negative energy fires. As a mage, Elise certainly knows that mages are not completely without weaknesses, and negative energy fire works best against pure energy effects, but it is not so powerful when it comes to bombarding those entities.

It seems that this enemy is very difficult to deal with.

"Don't say it?"

Looking at Elise, the man's face turned cold, and then he flipped and picked up the spear in his hand.

"It's okay, after I arrest you back, there is a way for you to tell me the truth of the matter, I didn't expect the Flash Gold Empire to play this kind of trick......... Hum......... But that's not it........."

"Uh-huh..............."

Hearing this, Jenn raised his eyebrows. It seems that his guess is correct, the reason why the Tour de France Association is so sneakily transporting the Staff of the Tour Law, and even does not hesitate to use these adventurers as bait, is not only for secrecy, but even to blind the eyes of the Shining Gold Empire. This also means that the Tour de France Association transported the Staff of the Tour to Phantom Star City, and the high-level leaders of the Shining Gold Empire did not know about it.

In other words, they don't want the other person to know.

But why did the Tour de France do this?

Thinking of this, Jenn couldn't help but be curious, the Tour of Law Society is the official spell-casting organization of the Shining Gold Empire, in fact, they themselves know very well that if it weren't for the big tree of the Shining Gold Empire, they would have been destroyed by the Templar Order in minutes. So what are they doing now? Could it be that the Glittering Gold Empire intends to use the Staff of the Ring, and the Tour de France does not agree and makes the transfer? The Shining Gold Empire isn't that stupid, once the Staff of the Ring Law is turned on the main plane, it will be a river of blood, and then the Templar Order will come directly to the door to destroy your entire family.

Could it be that the Tour de France intends to follow the will of its founders and continue to use the Staff of the Tour to pursue that unattainable path? But why choose this time......... Isn't this planning to take advantage of the opportunity of the Shining Gold Empire to start a war to fish in troubled waters, and then throw all the black cauldrons to the royal family to bear.

After thinking about it, Jenn still thinks that the second possibility is higher. After all, the royal family of the Shining Gold Empire would not joke about their country, and the mage would do whatever it took to pursue that qiē core. That's one of the reasons why they choose to trade with demons. In fact, many mages have traded their souls to demons in pursuit of an ethereal goal, and have fallen into darkness entirely. This kind of thing Jenn has seen many times in the Demon Realm. So he's not surprised at all. And judging from the current situation, I am afraid that most people in the Tour Law Association do not know the truth, after all, the story of the Staff of the Tour is known to even three-year-old children in the Tour de France, and if those mages know that they plan to restart the Staff of the Ring Law, then I don't know what the excitement will be. And such a secret thing, naturally, the fewer people who know about it, the better, so as to avoid leaking the news.

But now was not the time to guess, he could be sure that that mage had the strength of the legendary level. Elise is no match for the other at all. And as you can tell from the way he dresses, this is a battle mage.

Battlemages are the most specialized and combat-savvy of the mages, unleashing powerful spells and even powerful melee attacks. Of course, there are limits to battlemages, which are that they can't learn too many esoteric spells like ordinary mages, and at the lower levels, they look more like warriors than mages. But when these battle mages are fully grown, then they become the most powerful and terrifying of the mages. And now, in front of Elise, it is obvious that there is such a deposit.

Although Elise has also learned some combat skills, the battle mage is specialized in combat. It is completely different from Elise, a "pseudo-double cultivator" who fishes for three days and dries nets for two days, and completely relies on her own non-human physique, and Jenn can be sure of it. If the two sides fight, then it will be a matter of minutes for Elise to be knocked down.

However, he didn't plan to leave Elise to die alone.

"Sofina."

Come to think of it. Jenn glanced at the girl beside her, and Sofina was still expressionless and cold at the moment. But Jenn saw in her eyes a burning will to fight. It was clear that Her Royal Highness was looking forward to joining the battle right now. Hearing Jenn's call, Sofina turned her head and stared at him silently, but those sparkling eyes had betrayed her thoughts.

It seems that she still has the blood of the red dragon flowing in her body.

Looking at Sofina's eyes beside her, Jenn smiled slightly.

"Go help Elise."

Hearing this, Sofina nodded.

Then, the next moment, her figure disappeared completely in Jenn's reluctance.

Seeing Sofina's figure disappear, Jenn turned his head, narrowed his eyes, and looked at the carriage and the adventurers next to him again. At this moment, the adventurers seemed to be completely stunned, and had no idea what was going on. Originally, they were just escorting a nobleman to Phantom Star City to find a way to save their companions, but now what's going on? Who is that young lady? Who is this man who suddenly appeared? What the hell are they talking about!!

However, the man obviously didn't intend to explain to anyone, and seeing that Elise didn't have any intention of answering, he also snorted coldly, and then raised his hand high for a long time, and the next moment, his whole person turned into a whirlwind, and rushed towards Elise in six.

"Mirror Shadow!!"

Seeing the six figures in front of her, Elise was also frightened, and like Jenn, she also guessed the identity of the opponent's battle mage the moment she saw the other party. It's just that I didn't expect this battle mage to be so fierce, you must know that the mirror shadow technique was originally just an ordinary illusion used to confuse the opponent, but it had no practical effect. However, the battle mage acted as if it were really split into six, as if it had become six people attacking her at the same time. For a while, Elise didn't know what to do, but in the end, she gritted her teeth and waved her hands forward, and soon, the flames of negative energy erupted again, rolling and blasting towards the other party.

However, the speed of the battle mage was faster than Elise had imagined, and at the same time as her flames erupted, the six phantoms also flew up as if they had wings, jumping over the flames with an arc, and then the spears in their hands slammed forward, stabbing straight at the girl in front of them.

"Not good!!"

Seeing this scene, Elise's face finally changed greatly, and at this time, she suddenly saw a red figure appear in front of her.

The next moment, Sofina collided with the six battle mages. (To be continued......)
