Merlin had a total of six spells. Before leaving the Dark Spirit Domain, Mage Leo had given him all the First-Level Spells, so Merlin was not lacking in First-Level Spells now. What he needed was to choose carefully.
Merlin's first First-Level Spell had been an earth-element defensive spell, Guardian Monument! This spell had indeed been of tremendous help to him. When dealing with the many Spellcasters recruited by Longadi this time, if not for Guardian Monument, Earth Guardian alone simply could not have withstood the attacks of Mage Hegar's Second-Level Spell.
With a defensive spell in hand, Merlin felt that his offensive spells were somewhat lacking in power. Whether Fireball or Thunder Web, neither could break through those First-Level defensive spells.
Even the reason Merlin had killed Mage Hegar was because he had cast an enhanced version of Dark Mist, trapping Hegar in an illusion before he could successfully kill him. It was not because Merlin's Fireball or Thunder Web had possessed such tremendous power.
Merlin pondered for a long time. Although his offensive power was currently insufficient, comparing Berserk Flame and Darklight Domain, there was no doubt that Darklight Domain would help Merlin the most.
Once he cast Darklight Domain, perhaps even Mages whose Mental Power rivaled that of Third-level Spellcasters would be unable to break through it.
Darklight Domain also possessed a powerful hallucinatory effect. No matter how formidable a Spellcaster was, once they fell into an illusion, they would practically be meat on the chopping block.

After roughly half an hour, Matrix finally reconstructed
