Chapter 342 Battle

Vincent frowned after seeing his action.

He was curious why his Master can no longer help him but that is not something he has to worry about right now.

Previously, he learned that the fifth disciple was staying in the 15th Tower but he wasn't sure whether he is part of the 15th Tower's anomaly. However, he has now confirmed that this person is most likely serving the Magic God as well.

There is no point in being polite to this person. Well, Jairo doesn't seem to have any intention of being polite from the beginning.

Boom!

Vincent's Mana Barrier activated followed by Soul Shake from his Tranquil Mind Crystal, Chaos Night from his Nightbane Robe, and Ensnare from his Ironbark Cane.

He cast these abilities consecutively like he had practiced this countless times. In truth, his casting speed had just gone a lot faster over the past couple of years so he was able to do this much quite easily.

The group of six was of course, aware of Vincent's abilities. They know that two years ago, this young man was able to escape from the 15th Tower even after Archone Byrne and Tower Master Aarav was there.

Of course, it must be said that the Black Tower at that time was in its weakest state as its energy was entirely focused on maintaining the Tribulation Clouds or the Mana Cataclysm above it. It couldn't properly show its strength aside from its basic defenses

? "Hmm?" Vincent realized something was off as soon as he managed to catch them using his ensnare. They weren't panicking or trying to remove the iron vines wrapping their feet.

They didn't seem to care at all as they were all glaring at Vincent…

Crash! Crash!

Two of his rings suddenly exploded!

These rings were Prudence Ring and Sagewood Ring that could protect him from any invasive Mana Arts that would sneakily enter his body.

If they exploded just like that, it means that his enemies have used a technique to target it, or perhaps, these rings have reached their limit and could no longer protect him.

It was at this point that he realized that the six people in front of him have purple eyes!

These guys were definitely part of the Immortal Project and they probably received these eyes from the magic god…

'Master Ignacy, why have you chosen this man as your fifth disciple… Tsk…' Vincent frowned at this but he didn't panic.

As a matter of fact, he has been signaling Luna and the others to stay on their spot and just observe his battle. That's right, he has been using telepathy with the others during this time so they don't interrupt his first meeting with one of his Senior Disciples…

Well, it must be his pride or arrogant nature that he wanted to beat Jairo and the others alone before reporting it to Ignacy.

Since he had already beaten the sixth disciple, he felt that doing the same with the fifth disciple would be very satisfying…

"Come!"

Vincent taunted the six as he stored his Ironbark Cane in his system inventory and held the River Dragon's left eye in his left hand while the Aura-Forged Orichalcum Sword in his right hand…

The green sword in his hand appears just like a decorative weapon since it was too flashy. Nevertheless, they know that Vincent is an expert in mind techniques and possesses a very high Consciousness Energy.

The sword may look brittle in their eyes but it's definitely a weapon with imbued abilities. In any case, there was no way Vincent will pull out a useless weapon.

With this in mind, Jairo and his group decided to encircle him. Their Mystic Eyes were already deactivated as the ability they used probably has some sort of cooldown.

"Hmph! You're really thinking of dealing with us alone? You'll regret this!" Jairo said as he signaled something to his team.

Apparently, they were expecting to be attacked in all directions once they revealed their intention of taking Vincent away.

This is why they weren't fully concentrating on capturing him. They were trying to bait out his helpers so they could use one of their secret techniques to deal with them.

Obviously, this plan didn't go well since Vincent was quite stubborn and refused to be assisted by his subordinates.

This is out of their expectation since they believe that Vincent was only able to escape the 15th Tower through the help of his Celestial Beings.

Vincent did not reply to them as he started circulating his Pseudo-Celestial Energy… He already activated the Anti-Curse Field of the River Dragon's Eye and was prepared to get attacked by their Mystic Eyes…

However, he didn't expect that they'll stop using their mystic eyes after they successfully destroyed his two rings.

Instead, he saw them cast two Mana Arts at the same time hinting that these six were all Grand Magus.

Although they were only capable of dual-casting, it is still quite troublesome to deal with since there are six of them.

Whoosh~ Whoosh~

The six of them manifested their Mana Arts at the same time surprising the crowd that has been watching them. The temperature started rising as those who curiously watching started stepping back.

However, Vincent was not impressed.

'Is that it?' He was a bit disappointed after seeing their Mana Arts.

Twelve fireballs were summoned by Jairo's group and each of them was the size of an adult's head. Furthermore, it was a rare blue flame instead of the common red flame… They should be considered dangerous, However, he knows that this kind of Tier 3 Mana Art is not enough to leave a dent in his defenses anymore…

At most, these fireballs would be more useful for destroying buildings instead of burning a Mana Practitioner at his level.

'Wait…' Vincent realized something as he immediately used telepathy to speak with Krusk…

'They might target the surrounding buildings instead of me… Krusk, protect them if that happens!' Vincent immediately sent this message.

Luckily, it was not too late.

As soon as Krusk heard Vincent's warning, he already acted and spread out the dragon scales he was keeping close to him…

"Now!"

Jairo shouted in ecstasy believing that his plans would work.

Two of the fireballs came rushing in Vincent's direction while all the others were indeed directed at the crowd and the buildings nearby!
