Chapter 514: Free-for-all

The armor in front of him stepped on the cracked bricks in the ground and rushed towards Lei Luo. The huge axe in his hand had already reached the top of his head.

What made Lei Luo truly fearful was that Jarrosus, who only had the strength of a Grade-4 mage, was able to support this thing that was equivalent to a Grade-5 magic puppet.

Didn’t this mean that the Elder Council still had a secret weapon like this?

Do you know how difficult it is to cast a spell beyond the level of a mage? A Level-2 spell is enough to drain the mana of ten to a hundred Level-1 mages. The higher the level of a spell, the higher the quality and quantity of the mana required.

Why could Lei Luo use a high-level spell? That was because after the purification of the holy body, the quality of the mana was unbelievably high. All the blood in the body was infused with mana, causing Lei Luo’s blood to be able to exchange with the mana.

This allowed Lei Luo to use magic beyond his level, but now, someone was using magic beyond his level in front of him. How could he not be surprised?

Using the [ flight ] spell, he temporarily flew up to dodge the attack of the magic puppet. In Lei Luo’s eyes, the magic puppet was Jarrosus, which also prevented Lei Luo from directly attacking Jarrosus, the spellcaster.

The puppet’s axe fell to the ground, creating a large crater.

Seeing the magic power flowing through the magic puppet, Lei Luo thought of a way to deal with the magic puppet.

He took out a small stone and stuffed it into the gaps of the magic puppet, then he began to circle around the magic puppet to dodge its attack.

Jarrosus was confused. It was not a wise decision to fight with him for a long time. With a certain amount of magic crystals, Jarrosus could maintain the magic puppet’s normal operation for two days.

Although Lei Luo was fast, he was still a human. He would feel tired if he did not eat or drink for two days. His magic puppet would not be tired.

Unless Lei Luo could break the armor of the magic puppet, how could that be possible? One had to know that the armor of a Level-5 magic puppet required at least Level-6 magic to break. If Lei Luo was a Level-6 mage, why would he beat around the bush with him?

Hadn’t he failed long ago?

He couldn’t understand what Lei Luo was trying to do, so he decided to deal with him like this. Having made up his mind, Jarrosus chased after Lei Luo and attacked him on the ring.

Lei Luo circled around different parts of the magic puppet and began to strike, but to the magic puppet, it was like scratching an itch. It had no effect at all.

The more Jarrosus looked, the more confused he became. When the armor on the puppet began to fall off, the speed that was originally on par with Lei Luo began to slow down.

Jarrosus used his mana to observe the interior of the magic puppet. The more he looked, the more shocked he became. The mana circuit of the armor seemed to have been plowed by someone, becoming extremely messy.

As the armor fell off one by one, the originally huge body became smaller and smaller. Until the weakened Jarrosus fell to the ground, he still could not understand how Lei Luo had done it.

He could only say to the judge, “I admit defeat.”

In a depressed manner, he turned to look at Lei Luo and asked, “What method did you use to break my magic puppet?”

Lei Luo rummaged through his armor, took out a small stone, and said to Jarrosus, “This is it.”

Looking at Jarrosus’ puzzled gaze, Lei Luo continued to explain, “This is the anti-magic stone that people in the northern border often use to fight against mages. This little thing can absorb the magic power in the air, and it can also absorb the magic power in the magic power circuit. It will flow along the magic power circuit. To the Magic Power Circuit of a magic puppet, it is like a impurity. It will constantly wear down the original complete magic power circuit. In addition, I constantly adjust its position, which makes it so destructive. If it is destroyed normally, it will take about three hours.”

Jarrosus smiled bitterly and said to Lei Luo, “Yet you still say that you’re not a magician?”

Lei Luo raised his eyebrows and said, “If you think so.”

He walked to the bottom of the ring and glanced at the position of the Nakajima family head on the high platform. His eyes were filled with provocation.

Behind the screen, the Nakajima family head looked at Lei Luo’s eyes on the screen and threw the teacup in his hand out.

“Trash, really trash. We spend so much money on him every year, but we still can’t deal with this James.”

The Takeda family head comforted him.

“We never thought of eliminating him in this match. Didn’t we prepare for the next match? We spent so much effort to make Miyamoto Takezo empty-handed. Wasn’t it all for the next match?”

The Nakajima family head’s originally heaving chest calmed down after hearing this. He asked his servant to change a cup of tea and sat in his seat to continue watching.

The Sakurakami family head still had the same expressionless face, but there was a hint of admiration in his eyes.

He greeted Miyamoto Musashi and Linghua and waited for the other matches to end.

Miyamoto Musashi patted his chest and said to Linghua, “Linghua, when the time comes, you will stand behind me. I guarantee that you will pass.”

But Linghua said with a worried face, “What about James? His situation isn’t too good. It seems like the Nakajima family and Takeda family are targeting him. This time, there are seven people from these two families.”

“And that Xirong from the treasure house. Maybe the two families will pay him to help.”

Miyamoto Musashi looked at Lei Luo and said with a snort, “Who cares? I’ll use all my money. I’m planning to have a good meal before I leave.”

“It shouldn’t be a problem. At most, I’ll eliminate the people from the other two families and then randomly kill one of them,” Lei Luo said optimistically to Linghua.

Miyamoto Musashi patted Lei Luo and spoke with a gloating expression on his face. “Let’s take it one step at a time. At most, I’ll help you block Xirong from the treasure house and Linghua will help you block one more person. That way, you’ll only need to hit six people. It’ll be much easier to think like that.”

Lei Luo just rolled his eyes at him and didn’t say anything else.

Soon, the chaotic battle began. As expected, the seven people surrounded each other. Xirong, who was dressed in yellow and holding a golden staff, gestured at Miyamoto Musashi with his shiny bald head.

Linghua could only comfort Lei Luo and say, “I’ll come and help you after I’ve dealt with that person.”

After saying that, she gestured to the most powerful person among the seven.

These seven people were undoubtedly grandmasters from various sects. For various reasons, the two aristocratic families had made their moves, and Bei Tiao Yilang was one of them.

The two people next to him, the huge man who liked to tear people apart alive, watched this scene with interest. The cloth-clothed swordsman who was chewing on grass roots and wearing a straw hat watched this scene with disdain.

The six men charged towards Lei Luo in different directions. Hojo Ichiro’s eyes were filled with hatred. After using the magic potion, his body had deteriorated. However, for the sake of his master, he had no choice but to fight against Lei Luo again.

The six men’s blades slashed towards different parts of Lei Luo’s body at the same time. It seemed that Lei Luo had nowhere to dodge.
