178. The Sorcery Showdown.
In just a few minutes, Alex and Lorelei had already exchanged several blows. Although both of them were sorcerers, their close combat skills were far from weak. The winds of calamity and the curse of corrosion continuously clashed and counteracted each other, leaving deep cracks in the ground around them.Cheêck out latest novels at novelhall.com
Magical energy dripped onto the ground, instantly producing the sound of acid corrosion, accompanied by a stench so foul it was unbearable to most people.
Seizing a good opportunity, Alex thrust his black umbrella forward. The winds of calamity suddenly surged, tearing Lorelei's body into pieces. Yet, there was no trace of joy on Alex's face. The sensation from the umbrella's tip felt wrong; Alex knew this strike hadn't truly hit its mark. Sure enough, the next moment, Lorelei's body glowed with a dark green light and vanished before Alex's eyes.
Alex reacted swiftly. Sensing danger approaching from behind, he quickly turned and placed his black umbrella in front of him. A powerful force struck, forcing Alex to take two steps back.
"A sorcery clone? I remember that's supposed to be Loki's signature magic," Alex sneered.
"Aren't you curious who taught Loki his magic, my dear?" Lorelei licked her lips, smiling seductively as she asked in return.
"Certainly not you."
The tip of Alex's umbrella suddenly shot out a laser, catching Lorelei off guard. Although she was an Asgardian and her physical strength far surpassed that of ordinary beings, Alex's high-tech umbrella was no ordinary item. The laser weapon it carried was certified by none other than Batman himself. The red laser hit Lorelei squarely on the shoulder, leaving a noticeable burn on her smooth, fair skin.
Lorelei let out a cry of pain, then swiftly waved her delicate hand. A surge of potent magical energy erupted, sending dark green energy streaking through the air. The ground beneath it cracked, and the weeds in the crevices withered rapidly under its influence. Seeing this, Alex didn't dare to be careless. The grey winds of calamity quickly formed a vortex around him, blocking the terrifying life-draining magic outside.
Two ominous forces converged and clashed in the air, their destructive power wreaking havoc on everything around them.
The battlefield where Alex and Lorelei fought had become a vacuum zone; no one else dared to approach, let alone intervene.
The winds of calamity and the corrosive sorcery were not things that ordinary people could withstand. Anyone who ventured too close would have their life force drained instantly, turning into nothing but a dried corpse.
The entire battlefield had come to a standstill as everyone's attention was drawn to the terrifying phenomenon in the sky. Whether it was Alex's side or the villainous alliance, they all stared at the sky without blinking.
No one could have imagined that Lorelei had such a trump card up her sleeve. Although she had always been a force to be reckoned with, none of them had ever seen her go all out like this.
Dark green energy filled the clouds, twisting and mingling with the heavy black clouds, constantly swirling. From within the clouds, one could hear the sound of thunder rumbling. However, the expressions on everyone's faces were unnatural because they knew that this so-called thunder had no corresponding lightning. Rather than thunder, it sounded more like the low growl of some unknown entity.
"Raven Sorcerer, it looks like she's about to unleash something. You can't let her complete that spell!" Ashley shouted, unable to hold back as she watched Alex remain still.
But Alex paid her no mind. Likewise, Kara and Pietro, after a moment of confusion, quickly turned and took advantage of their opponents' distraction, catching them off guard.
"Hey! I'm talking to you! Do you want to die? If that thing descends, we're all done for!" Ashley yelled again, feeling the venom in her body trembling in fear.
Ashley continued to shout at Alex, but the Blood Baron began to catch on.
Didn't notice how calm that sorcerer's two companions were? And the sorcerer himself was as composed as ever, not showing any sign of panic. This clearly indicated they weren't afraid at all!
If they weren't scared, why should he care? It was better to take advantage of this moment and deal with his opponent instead. So, the Blood Baron seized the opportunity when Wild Child wasn't paying attention and lunged at him, digging his sharp nails deep into Wild Child's eyes, eliciting a scream of pain.
"Don't get distracted during a fight!"
