Wizard starting from shoeing donkeys

Chapter 823: Chapter 306 Ritual (Two-in-One Chapter)_4

“Slow Technique!”

But Freeman forgot that his opponent, aside from Rein, also included the Duke’s advisor, a second-level Liquidization Wizard, who immediately cast the Slow Technique to impede his movements.

The Punishment Knight and Rein chased after him nearly simultaneously, with two warhammers striking towards his back in an instant.

If he got hit, he would be finished!

Freeman steeled his heart and fiercely threw the oil painting ‘Gaze of the Eye’ towards the two of them.

“Boom!!”

A violent explosion suddenly erupted between Rein’s warhammer and the oil painting.

In just a moment, the oil painting ‘Gaze of the Eye’ was pierced through by Rein’s Annihilating Hammer, like a leaking balloon, hundreds of soul phantoms, trailing long tails of flames, soared directly into the sky from the breach!

Multiple shockwaves swept through the surroundings!

Even Rein and Brandel had to take defensive postures, using their techniques to fend off the impact of the massive soul energy.

When the dust settled, Freeman had already used the momentum of the shockwaves to run several hundred meters away.

This distance wasn’t far for Rein, and he planned to catch up immediately.

Last time, this guy got lucky and escaped when they were in Meister, but this time…

Suddenly, everyone present turned to look towards the city peak, where the Mingster administrative hall was located.

The originally extinguished five black light pillars were remarkably reactivated at this moment, and they seemed to be growing more intense.

Clearly, someone was reopening the Evil Magic Array!

“What a lucky guy.”

“Escaped with his life again!” Rein looked at the distant figure in the black robe, shook his head slightly, and said.

He naturally knew what was important.

The evil spirit that might endanger his family’s safety had been eliminated.

Now the most important thing was to stop the Black Flame Cult’s ritual from commencing.

After all, no one knew what catastrophic consequences would come from the activation of the opponent’s Evil Magic Array.

However…

Who could the person restarting the Evil Magic Array be?

Was it the Black Flame Cult’s backup plan, or that Legendary-level individual called Exeter by the Duke of Mingster?

Hmm?

Rein glanced down at the black two-handed warhammer in his hand.

He was pleasantly surprised to find that after his warhammer shattered that bizarre oil painting, ten portions of soul energy had been instantly replenished.

This meant he could use ‘Soul Shatter Strike’ once again!

…

Meanwhile.

Mingster Administrative Hall.

On the entire hall floor, black lines, curves, semicircles, and other complex black patterns emerged, collectively forming a massive and mysterious pattern.

The four people who had been pulled out of reality by the ‘Wave Mirror’ had now returned to the center of the hall.

All four were in poor condition, with the most severe injuries suffered by the Goddess Church’s ascetic monk lying on the ground, struggling to get up.

There was a baby fist-sized penetrating wound in the center of his chest, almost taking away all his vitality.

Admiral Edward’s injuries were also severe, kneeling on one knee with one hand on his sword; part of his side, including armor and flesh, seemed entirely missing, with the wound forming a semicircle, blood gushing out continuously.

The Duke of Mingster’s Armor of the Coiling Serpent was shattered in several places, revealing injuries deep enough to see bone!

“You… your strength… is actually this strong!” The Duke of Mingster pointed at Exeter, with a trace of astonishment and regret in his eyes.

In contrast, Exeter, though covered in many wounds, suffered none that were fatal, making him the least injured. Moreover, black energy was swirling up from the ground, quickly covering his wounds.

His wounds were healing rapidly, visible to the naked eye.

“Looks like I’ve won this time!”

Exeter said as he glanced around, noticing that Bergis and his elite subordinates were not present, feeling a bit puzzled.

“Although these sacrifices in the plan escaped, having you three here is enough!”

“Plus, the effect will certainly be better than all of them combined!”

Thinking of something else, a smile appeared on Exeter’s face, and he continued:

“By the way, I’d like to give you a piece of advice: in the face of absolute power, any scheme is meaningless…”
