Currently, the ones inside the Magic Circle were Vale, Leonore, Aubrey, and Warren.
Chad, Neil, Emily, and the others were struck by the Creature and had been sent flying out of the magic circle.
The fierce strikes that came from the creature were something they couldn't endure with their current Dark Spells. They don't even have proper safety equipment with them!
They were injured but luckily, since it wasn't life-threatening, they weren't hurriedly rushed to the infirmary and instead, decided to see the end of this 'class activity.'
They wanted to know what will happen to their classmates…
"What's this? They're using Mystical Items now?"
"Is this allowed?"
"The Professor didn't say it's not allowed."
"That's true… Then this might become easy for them."
"What? Do you think that it's easy to find a Mystical Item that can kill that monstrosity?"
The other students started commenting as they saw Warren's talisman effective attack on the creature. It may not have killed it with one talisman but perhaps, if they used five more of those, they can actually win!
As they were excitedly looking at the battle, the Creature that was smashed into its cage suddenly let out another roar and a blue beam of light suddenly appeared hitting Vale's body!
It happened so quickly that he didn't have the chance to dodge at all.
Whoosh~
"Aahh!"
"Professor, save him!"
"This is bad."
Lisa and the others were shocked as soon as they saw Vale struck by the light. They weren't sure what that was but it was definitely an attack coming from the Creature!
Some of them looked at Warren but he no longer has any talisman in his hands. It seems that he only had that one Talisman he used moments ago.
Professor Lucius knitted his brows as he looked at Vale covered by the light.
"He should be fine as long as he's inside the Magic Circle." He said with certainty.
Nevertheless, they couldn't help but worry about Vale's current predicament…
Vale was covered by the blue light as he grunted in pain.
"Hold on!" Leonore shouted as she no longer hesitated and jumped in front of Vale. Since she has another defensive mystical item that she can't remove from her body, she decided to jump in front of Vale and save him from danger.
Her mystical item activated as it should, but to her surprise, the beam of light has already disappeared and perhaps, she only assisted Vale for less than a second.
'What's going on?'
The light lasted about six or seven seconds and it disappeared.
She immediately looked at Vale and confirmed that he was in a good condition. It was quite surprising…
'Does it not have any effects? Impossible… My mystical item was activated… It means that the beam of light was dangerous.' Leonore thought. She also noticed that the Ghost Hands that Vale summoned is still there!
'Incredible… He's still in his Phantasm State even after getting attacked like that? Just what kind of resilience does he have?'
Leonore wasn't sure what training Vale did but she certainly wanted to know how he had done that.
On the other hand, the Evil Creature including the Professor was quite surprised about what happened just now.
"What did you do, brat?!" The Creature spoke with a hint of madness in his tone. It was fuming in anger as plumes of smoke started coming out of its mouth and nostrils…
It wasn't mad at Warren for striking him but at Vale for stopping his attack!
Professor Lucius has the same thought. He had seen the Evil Creature fight someone before and the beam of light just now should be enough to put Vale out of commission. Even fourth-year students would be helpless on that unless they have made enough preparation to block an attack filled with Spiritual Energy.
'As if I'd answer your question...' Obviously, Vale knows that he doesn't have to answer the Creature.
He was lucky that his Spell Dispersion works passively after it reached the late stage of the Intermediate Realm.
Currently, as long as he got exposed to danger caused by any type of spell, the Spell Dispersion can act with a very limited range.
It can disperse any spell that is two or three inches off of his body… Needless to say, the distance is so short that even if the spell was being dispersed his skin can still feel the burning heat that was produced by the spell.
After a few seconds of passive spell dispersion, Vale controlled his Spell Dispersion to ultimately stop the Creature from casting the spell.
After surviving the attack, he didn't feel happy at all. He exposed his Spell Dispersion, and his Professor might realize what it was. He couldn't help but feel angry at this hideous monstrosity…
"Support me…" Vale commanded his team this time as he controlled the Ghost Hands to be on the offensive.
Since the Creature can reform its body and recover from any injury in a given time, Vale realized that they have to kill this creature quickly before it recovers.
This time, he decided not to limit his control with the Ghost Hands!
Crash! Crash!
In the blink of an eye, two of the illusory ghost hands appeared on the creature's ankles… With a strong grip and twist, the creature's ankles were broken!
"Aarrggghhh!"
The Creature screamed in pain as it didn't see how the Ghost Hands appeared instantaneously on his feet!
Bam!
The creature could no longer stand as it dropped to the ground…
Leonore and the others didn't miss this opportunity as they swiftly cast their Dark Spells…
"You think you can kill me with this?! I won't die!" The Creature shouted in anger as it tried reforming its body after receiving numerous curses and injuries.
If given some time, it would recover from its injuries and it would certainly attack Vale once more but this time, it would use its sharp nails to pierce his heart.
'There's no more next time…' Vale thought as he silently controlled his Spell Dispersion and affected the Creature's lower body.
