Chapter 444: Ambush
Chapter 444 Ambush
Sol stared intently across the room, not hiding the murderous intent in his eyes.
On the way to the bow of the ship near the entrance to the hatch, two people were walking slowly.
One of them was holding up the other.
The one being stared at by Saul was the one being helped.
He was wearing a long cloak, and when the wind blew, the clothes clung to his body exposing an unusually slender figure.
The other party did not seem to be in good health, and had been covering his mouth and coughing, and from time to time he wanted to vomit.
Another person supported his arm and said something with a concerned face.
Saul kept his eyes on them, not worrying that his sight would be detected by the other.
The Nightmare Butterfly Penny’s ability had grown again after devouring the new Cryptocrystalline Plasm, and it could already affect the perception and cognition of others to a certain extent.
Even if Saul stared straight at the other party for a day, as long as the latter’s strength didn’t exceed Saul’s mental power, he wouldn’t be able to find out.
“Brother Saul, I’ve confirmed it, that person is Guido! Ha, he didn’t expect it, even with all the disguises, mental bodies don’t lie!”
Penny fluttered her wings and waved them in front of Saul’s eyes.
Under the Sorcerer’s Tower, Penny had also crossed paths with Guido once, helping Saul to block the other party for a while, but in the end, she was still driven out of her spirit body.
At this moment, it naturally looked at Guido with particular displeasure.
As for Saul, there was no need to mention that he had been poisoned, hunted down, and there was also Keri’s revenge.
He was still slightly depressed about the other party’s escape, but he didn’t expect to bump into him on the airship today.
Saul raised his feet and walked smoothly yet firmly towards Guido whose figure and appearance had changed greatly.
At the same time, under his feet, translucent gray tentacles rose and fell on the deck, spreading out in all directions like smoke.
After the battle at the Sorcerer’s Tower, Saul gradually realized that his soul drape could already be split multiple times like kohlrabi.
Although the more it split, the power of each one would drop a bit, but even so, the power of a single tentacle was much more powerful than before.
The tentacles first dispersed to all corners of the deck before surrounding the center where Guido was from the outside.
The movements were very stealthy and careful.
Not only that, Saul also let his spiritual power and magic power spread together over the soul-draping tentacles, adding a new 3rd-ranked sorcery Shadow Binding to them through a secondary vibration.
It allowed Saul’s attacks to blend into the surrounding shadows, making them more stealthy, and it could also cause a dizzying effect first at the moment of launching the attack, enhancing the success rate of Soul Pendant.
In front, the disguised appearance of Guido and the man holding him up did not notice the attacks from all directions.
And in the rest of the airship, there were no other first-order sorcerers, and even if there were other advanced apprentices, they were unable to see the ambush that was taking place under the dual camouflage of the Nightmare Butterfly and the Shadow Binding.
The smoke had gradually approached the two who were about to enter the cabin.
In Saul’s field of vision, there were also transparent tentacles extending out a little bit from the walls of the passageway into the hatch. The tentacle tips were all aimed at the two men, already poised and ready to strike, just waiting for Guido to step into the final ambush point, turning the clear sky and clean deck into a cage shrouded in shadows and smoke.
However, just as Sol’s ambush had closed in and the final kill was about to be unleashed, a white shadow suddenly fell from the sky.
That white shadow was so fast that it directly penetrated the last gap and shot towards Guido and the other man when Sol’s encirclement was about to close.
Someone was going to intercept and?
Saul narrowed his eyes, and his spiritual power was immediately activated, and the shadows and tentacles that were already stupidly moving violently attacked the center.
However, Saul’s attack was not known for its speed, and even though he had mobilized the trap as quickly as possible, the white shadow was still a second faster …… stabbing into the brain of the person next to Guido!
And Guido, who had been tensing his body, exploded violently in the small of his back and arms at the first moment he realized that someone had launched an attack.
In the explosion there is black smoke like a tiger and wolf like tearing outward, not the slightest distinction between enemy and self, even the side has been supporting him people were also attacked.
The unlucky person who was attacked let out a wail from his mouth and soul at the same time, which actually dispersed part of Saul’s attack.
“Soul toxin!” Saul immediately recognized the black beast-like mist emanating from Guido’s body as the enhanced version of Soul Toxin that had once nearly made him melt.
Although the sorcery manifested itself differently, the essential threat was still there.
Saul didn’t directly launch a frontal attack just now because he didn’t want Guido to be alerted and then utilize the toxin to defend himself.
Even Saul had a headache with Guido’s poison.
He immediately retracted his tentacles and only left shadow bindings around the two to prevent people from escaping.
And at that moment, the one beside Guido had already convulsed and collapsed to the ground, a layer of thin ice floating on his entire body. Thor looked up and finally saw the man who had launched an attack on Guido’s companion from above.
It was a man with a full head of white hair and wings made of ice crystals flapping slowly behind him.
Huge blue and white sorcery spells hovered above his head and at his feet.
It was also this spell formation that hid all the killing intent and magic fluctuations before he launched his attack.
When the other party no longer needed to hide, Saul clearly perceived from the fluctuations emanating from his body that the other party was actually a second-order sorcerer.
A completely unfamiliar second-order, different from the description of all second-order sorcerers in the western region!
“Could it be a second-order sorcerer from another region?”
Just as Sol was scornful of the other party and did not continue to strike, Guido suddenly transformed into several identical figures and fled in four directions.
One of them, was running right towards Saul and Captain Harry.
And the second-rank wizard above his head had no intention of letting Guido go, as several white ice lances once again condensed around his body.
“Guido is trying to cause trouble?” Saul could immediately dodge it, but Harry behind him was afraid that he wouldn’t survive.
He looked at Guido who was charging towards him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and immediately saw a few image distortions from the other party that were not real enough.
“This one is fake.”
Confirming that the other party was real or fake, Saul didn’t stop him, and black tentacles reached out from the back of his neck, directly hooping up Captain Harry’s waist, carrying him and Saul together to the side to dodge away.
The ice gunshot struck Guido’s shadow, immediately penetrating the shadow’s body before stabbing into the deck.
At the moment of impact with the deck, it exploded with a bang, turning into countless tiny ice needles, scattering in all directions!
A transparent spirit armor art immediately blocked in front of Saul.
“Wow!”
The Spirit Armor Technique didn’t block for long before it was shattered like glass by dozens of ice needles.
But the ice needles had decreased in momentum, and their speed was no longer as fast as when they had just erupted.
The black tentacles split again, forming a wall in front of Sol.
“Atsumi Atsumi …… Atsumi Atsumi ……”
The ice needle pierced into the small algae’s split body and lost its momentum when it was not halfway in.
The mouth of the main body of Algae immediately vibrated with “click click click click”, as if a person was drenched in ice water.
In the next second, a crack appeared on the body of the small algae, and finally shattered all over the place.
Originally did not react to what happened Captain Harry immediately weak legs can not stand, if not the small algae also has a tentacle hooped his waist, at this time I am afraid that have already slipped to the ground.
But even more terrible things are still happening.
Originally to the airship in all directions to escape the Guido, surprisingly none of the real figure.
Therefore all the ice lances penetrated the phantoms and burst on the deck.
Four large holes were then added to the originally intact hull, and the entire airship began to shake.
“Lord Sol!” Captain Harry, who was still terrified, suddenly calmed down, “Can you get me to the power room? Once the airship crashes, no one but you can survive at this altitude!”
Saul nodded and directly had Kobo drop the man down the passageway into the hatch.
He, on the other hand, stared intently at the old man in the sky.
At this moment, the old man also turned his sight towards Saul.
His eyes were like muddy sewage, emitting an icy stench.
“A third first-order sorcerer?” The white-haired old man let out a cold smile, “A small airship has three first-order sorcerers on board, so I see that you’re in a group with them as well. Then go to hell together.”
The other party’s killing intent immediately turned the hot summer into a cold winter, and even Saul’s skin broke out in goosebumps.
The survivors around who still hadn’t had time to escape were immediately turned into ice sculptures, unable to move.
At the same time, in Saul’s mind, the dark red diary “clattering” flipped up.
