Chapter 507: 507

507 Testing the Waters

Wizard Bunker looked at Wizard Nigel, who was blessed with countless rune cards and defensive spells . Although the six star defensive magic circle was extremely strong for defense, the magic circle had zero attack damage . Only some of the very special magic circles would have its own attack damage .

For example, the electricity defensive magic circle came with a powerful lightning attack, but the attacks were not controlled by the magic circle .

These magic circles were not meant to be used to deal damage . Therefore the magic circles were mainly used to strengthen their defense and attacks carried out by using runes .

Wizard Nigel took a deep breath . His whole body was covered by a white flash of light . Then, he disappeared into the six circle defensive magic circle .

‘Intruders discovered, Attack !’ Flora started to take actions after being authorized by Abel .

Wizard Nigel emerged from the spell ‘move in a flash’, and suddenly he felt a huge pressure . His movement was affected by the huge pressure, and his spell casting speed was reduced to the lowest .

He startled in his heart and cast ‘move in a flash,’ which he mastered through endless practice . Then suddenly, an armor-piercing arrow flew out of the void .

At that moment, Wizard Nigel movement was fully suppressed, but his mental power was not . He could clearly perceive the piercing arrow flying towards him and knew that even if he used ‘ move in a flash’, he still wouldn’t be able to dodge the arrow completely .

In that instant, a rune appeared in his hand and was thrown towards the arrow . At the same time, he resisted the huge pressure and dodged, moving his body to the side a little .

It was an ice rune sign that was thrown . Although it had very low attack damage, it was very effective against physical attacks like arrows .

In addition, the effects of rune signs are very hard to miss . This was the reason why the wizard still used it when it has very low attack power .

The piercing arrows were covered in ice in the air, and the speed of the arrow was reduced by the effect of the rune . Then, the arrow flew past Wizard Nigel’s arms after he dodged his body to the side a little .

Although Wizard Nigel had used a variety of methods to avoid the arrow, under the strong suppression of a six star defensive magic circle, he still couldn’t dodge the arrow completely . When the arrows flew over his arm, it also pulled a bloodline on his arm .

Throughout the entire process, his defensive spells and armor were completely useless against the armor piercing arrow . Even the two passive defensive magic items he brought had no effect . They were broken right after it activated . One could imagine the power of the armor piercing arrow .

The intense pain Wizard Nigel felt made him instantly use his ‘move in a flash’ magic scroll and disappeared in the six star magic circle map .

“Ouch,” Wizard Nigel screamed while appearing beside Wizard Bunker .

Abel saw Flora had launched an attack in the magic tower . He did not understand why Flora did not carry out a saturation blow, which would definitely stop Wizard Nigel from escaping . However, Abel did not ask too much because he believed that Flora must have its own reason for doing it .

“Wizard Nigel, how was the situation inside the tower?” Wizard Bunker did not care much about Wizard Nigel’s minor injury . He had seen countless bleeding on the battlefield .

“There was a crossbow on the city wall; the whole area was suppressed by a large magic circle . I almost got killed by the crossbow and couldn’t make it back here . ” Wizard Nigel took out a healing potion .

“You were scared by a crossbow?” Wizard Bunk hated Wizard Nigel, who was scared and ran away from a crossbow .

“It was not a normal crossbow . It took a lot just to come back alive!” Wizard Nigel was angered by Wizard Bunker, who ignored his injury and mocked him .

“Hurry up and deal with the wound, then we will go in together . This time, you can hide behind me if you are scared of a crossbow . ” Wizard Bunker said .

Wizard Nigel’s experience made Wizard Bunker feel confident because he often encountered the six star magic circle map and crossbow on the battlefield, and he had a way to deal with it .

‘Wizard Bunker, what is your solution?’ Wizard Nigel does not want to venture in again if he was not sure about the solution .

Wizard Bunker took out a steel puppet with a height of nearly three meters from the portal bag . This puppet was different form the puppets of Abel . The puppets held a huge shield in his hand, but it can be seen from the craftsmanship that this is also a work of the Dwarf .

Wizard Nigel saw the inlaid intermediate magic stone and rune sign painted on the entire shield and knew that it was a magic shield . He felt at ease even if it was not a magic shield; judging from the thickness of the shield, it would definitely block any attack from the enemy .

He treated the wound on his arm by using the ‘healing potion’ and moved his arm for a little to make sure that his movement would not be affected by his injury . Then he blessed himself with all the defensive buffs again .

He used the ‘Energy shield’ magic scroll on himself this time even when the magic scroll of ‘Energy shield’ was very scarce . He had no thought of saving it as he flashed back about the power of the crossbow .

“Follow me immediately after entering . Then we focus on destroying the magic tower to break the six star magic circle map . ” Wizard Bunker said .

This six star magic circle map could be broken easily from the formation of the magic circle . The magic circle was formed by a foundation of six magic towers . This meant that as long as one of the six magic towers was destroyed, the six star magic circle map would be broken . Then, the rest of the magic towers could be easily dealt with without the suppression from the magic circle .

Wizard Nigel had no problem as long as he was not the one to block the armor piercing arrow . His job was easy by casting spells in the back .

In addition, he believed in the titles of Wizard Bunker as an Elite Warlock . It signified that Wizard Bunker was more experienced than other elite wizards in the Holy Continent on the battlefield .

“Are you ready?” Wizard Bunker glanced at Wizard Nigel and asked .

“Alright, let’s go!” Wizard Nigel nodded . At the moment, his body was constantly flashing with all the magic blessings .

Wizard Bunker looked at Wizard Nigel, who was covered by all the flashy magic blessings . He sneered and imagined that Wizard Nigel would definitely be attacked by the enemy on the first sight in the battlefield with all these flashy magic blessings .

“Here we go!” Wizard Bunker rested on the steel puppets holding the shield and hiding his body behind the puppet to conceal himself completely .

Although he said that he didn’t care, it was still a city crossbow . A crossbow that could pierce through all kinds of defenses and kill you instantly if you weren’t careful enough .

The city crossbow on the Dwarf City was very famous in the entire continent . It was one of the most powerful defensive weapons in the world . Therefore very few city crossbows were supplied to humans, and dwarfs have strict control over the number of crossbows that were sold .

If any city crossbow were used in a city that was not supposed to have it . Then the city would be blacklisted and banned by the dwarfs .

The major thing was there would be no maintenance for the city crossbow . Every weapon had life services, including the city crossbow, some of the parts would need to be replaced after being used for a certain amount of time . The crossbow would also need to be maintained once in a while, and all these tasks can only be performed by dwarfs .

It could be said that discovering a city crossbow in a Lord land had surprised Wizard Bunker . Even if Abel was a Blacksmith Master, he was still a human Blacksmith Master and not a Dwarf Blacksmith Master . Regarding the stubbornness and strict rules of the dwarfs, it should be extremely difficult to obtain a war weapon like a city crossbow .
