Claire looked back at the hole that was still expanding. It had now expanded to the size of a volleyball and had not yet stabilized.
He looked at Archmage in front of him again. After several thoughts quickly flashed through his mind, Claire decided to stay here. A Archmage could not kill him for the time being, not to mention that he still had a trump card in his hand. He might be able to kill the opponent. After killing the opponent, he could turn around and deal with the teleported Martin.
The Archmage also looked at the Space Channel behind Claire in confusion. It was just this white light that lit up that he decided to rush in.
"Who sent you here?" Claire asked tentatively.
"Don't even think about getting any information from me, just accept your death!"
"Wait a minute!" Claire stretched out his hand to stop the other party.
This sudden sentence stopped Archmage's movements. When he executed orders before, he had never encountered anyone pausing before the battle started.
"What's wrong?"
Claire analyzed the other party. "Look, with your Archmage strength, you can definitely kill me, right? Then you might as well tell me the person behind it and let me know."
"Ah?" Archmage couldn't react for a while.
Within a few seconds, Archmage reacted and said angrily, "Are you kidding me? Go to hell!"
As he spoke, he waved his staff, and a huge ice dragon with four feet long and sharp horns came towards Claire. Claire could even clearly see the fangs on the ice dragon and the cold air emanating from it.
Claire was chanting obscure spells quickly.
"Fire Shield!"
A diamond-shaped shield composed of red hot flames stood in front of Claire. Unfortunately, as soon as the ice dragon hit the flame shield, the shield made a crisp shattering sound and turned into pure fire elements again.
However, the flame shield still had some effect, burning the ice dragon's head until it became blurry, and the speed was also reduced by a notch.
"Go!" Claire waved his hand, and the transparent shield that had been condensed before rushed towards the ice dragon.
There was no surprise in the ending. The transparent shield was originally a second-level Magic Shield, which was a level lower than the flame shield. Moreover, there was no flame restraint on the Ice Element spell. It only hindered it for a while and then broke.
However, what Claire needed was that little time to be blocked. In less than a second, Claire cast himself on Light Body Technique and several beneficial first-level spells.
With a tap of his toes, he easily escaped from the ice dragon's attack range. Then Claire twisted around and sprinted towards Archmage in front of him. With a flip of his hand, another big sword appeared in his hand.
The opponent is a Archmage level mage, and I am no more than High Mage now. If I use magic to fight hard, the chance of winning will definitely be very slim, so Claire plans to use its strengths and avoid weaknesses to engage in close combat with the opponent. My Magic Swordmaster lineage is good at close combat. I will see if I don't kill the opponent!
Archmage on the opposite side saw Claire sprinting toward him with a big sword, and a strange color flashed in his eyes. As a mage, he would feel uncomfortable once someone got close to him. He raised his hand and fired a second-level Cracking Wind Blade instantly, and shot towards Claire.
"That's it?" Claire chuckled, inputting magic power into the modified sword, and then there was a "buzz" sound on both sides of the sword's blade! Two wind blades were condensed.
Claire raised the big sword in his hand and slashed at the Cracking Wind Blade. The two collided with each other. One side of the big sword in Claire's hand lost the blessing of the wind blade, and the Cracking Wind Blade shot by the opponent was also chopped and deflected by Claire. It hit the wall on one side randomly, blasting a hole as big as half a man.
This time, it wasn't just Archmage who was shocked. Martin on the other side of the trading panel was shocked. What's going on? Are all the wizards on the opposite side fighting like this? Use witchcraft to fight in close combat?
After chopping off Cracking Wind Blade, Claire jumped on the ground a few times, then jumped directly above the opponent, holding the hilt of the big sword with both hands, and was about to give the opponent a fatal blow.
At this time, the Archmage who had been silent showed a faint smile, raised his hand, and faced Claire.
Claire squinted his eyes, trying to see the opponent's moves clearly so he could react.
Then, the sleeves of the great magic suddenly expanded, and a strong wind surged out of his hands and struck towards Claire.
Claire was still a little confused, but he was quickly blown away by the strong wind. Only then did he react, and immediately untied his Light Body Technique. After controlling his body shape in the air, he landed steadily on the ground.
"How can you get close to me with Light Body Technique?" Archmage laughed.
Claire also laughed, with a slight embarrassment in his smile. He had forgotten that there was such a thing. If it was a spell like Wind Blade that condensed energy, he could easily resist it, but a spell like Gale Spell couldn't be resisted at all. After he set a Light Body Technique on himself, he was like a kite, being blown back by the strong wind before he got close to the opponent.
When we played against Beck before, the opponent had just been promoted to High Mage and didn't have that much experience. Now after meeting Archmage who has rich experience, the effect is not obvious.
But Claire didn't panic. Light Body Technique is just a gain spell. Even if it has no effect, it won't be very big. His current physical fitness is comparable to Silver Rank's knight. Even without Light Body Technique, there is no big problem in avoiding the opponent's attack and getting close to the opponent.
"Buzz!"
Claire injected magic power into the big sword in his hand, and two brand-new wind blades emerged again, but the color was darker than the previous wind blades. Claire attached the second-level Cracking Wind Blade to them.
The mage on the opposite side obviously felt the change of the wind blade. He took out the staff and waved it in mid-air, still muttering obscure spells. After a few seconds, floating pentagonal ice-shaped shields surrounded him.
"Magic Shield, the fourth level, can your wind blade break it?" Archmage challenged Claire.
Claire's eyes flickered, and he slowly put down the sword in his hand.
After seeing Claire's actions, Archmage smiled and said, "Wise move, there is a gap between spells..."
Before he finished speaking, Archmage's words were stuck. He saw Claire taking out a level five Magic Scroll and pointing it at him.
Claire's head slowly stretched out from behind Magic Scroll, showing a kind smile, "You are right, there is a gap between spells. Can your level 4 shield withstand the level 5 offensive spell "Fire Meteor"?"
Archmage's face showed several different expressions in just one second, including panic, fear, anger, etc.
"Hiss!"
Claire tore open the Magic Scroll in his hand with a smile on his face. A red light instantly enveloped the entire room, and then a rolling heat wave hit, making the air dry.
Archmage on the opposite side looked around for a few times before assuming a defensive posture. The scroll had been torn open. With the distance between him and Claire and the attack range of "Fire Meteor", it was impossible to escape. Escape might expose loopholes, so it was better to resist.
A crimson Magic Array the size of half a room appeared out of thin air in front of Claire, and then violent and terrifying magic fluctuations came from it. The last basketball-sized fireball mixed with lava shot out of Magic Array quickly. After the first one appeared, Magic Array shot out hundreds of identical lava fireballs like a goddess scattering flowers.
With missile-like speed and huge power, it bombarded Archmage on the opposite side. The pentagonal ice shields that originally surrounded Archmage tended to melt.
"As expected of Fire Meteor." Claire looked at the magnificent scene in front of him and sighed, "It is indeed the same as a shooting star."
