Chapter 567 The mysterious hermit


"This is."

Heloise raised her head, a look of surprise in her violet pupils.

A middle-aged man wearing a gray cloak and holding a bronze scepter appeared in the sky not far away.

He looked relaxed and just waved his staff casually to create a flickering barrier spanning a hundred meters, covering all the caravan guards and cultists.

"Shua——"

In an instant, the billowing black mist on the ground dissipated, and the terrifying psychic black hole in the sky also disintegrated and collapsed, as if it had never appeared before.

Heloise couldn't help but cover her mouth and said softly: "What a powerful spellcaster."

This man who suddenly appeared as if he had obeyed her prayers gave her a feeling she had never experienced before.

Even the "Great Sage" Trafallano, whom she followed her father to visit at the Arcane Monastery a few years ago, did not seem to have such a powerful and mysterious aura.

"Who are you?"

The black-robed bishop raised his head, revealing a twisted mask that looked like an octopus covering his face.

His voice was trembling now, and he could not hide the fear and anger in his tone.

——Because this mysterious man is neither in his plan nor in the revelation of the "omniscient and omnipotent" Lord God.

"Oh, who am I, you ask?"

The man sneered and responded lightly: "The insect that is about to be crushed to death is not qualified to know my name."

"Impossible, the great Lord God is obviously omniscient and omnipotent, and you did not appear in the plan

I know, you, you are a demon sent by those false gods. You want to hinder our plan and prevent the return of the Lord God! ”

The black-robed bishop was shaking violently. He lowered his head and kept whispering. His voice became louder and louder, eventually turning into a mad roar.

"Devil, I will not let you succeed! The God of Dominance will eventually come to the world!"

He raised the bone staff in his hand high, and his dark eyes were filled with strange energy.

A harsh scream sounded, and a majestic psychic shock wave spurted out, hitting the man in a gray cloak in the sky.

"Buzz——"

And just the aftermath of the psychic impact made the caravan guards cover their ears in pain. They fell to the ground and struggled continuously, with blood flowing from their mouths and noses.

Heloise also covered her ears, but still tried her best to raise her head and reminded softly: "Be careful——"

However, the man in the sky just slowly raised the bronze scepter and said unhurriedly: "It's really boring, it's still these old-fashioned methods."

"Boom——"

In an instant, the top of the bronze scepter released extremely dazzling lightning.

Thick lightning beams erupted, ruthlessly destroying everything in front of them.

Even the impact of psychic energy was instantly dissipated under this terrifying elemental storm, and it could not even be blocked for a moment.

"This is impossible!"

The black-robed bishop let out an unbelievable scream, and his dark eyes seemed to see it.

However, the instinct of survival still forced him to activate psychic teleportation. The space was distorted by the power of the mind, and the thin body wrapped in black robe instantly appeared a hundred meters away.

But his subordinates were not so lucky.

Accompanied by endless thunder and dazzling lightning, the thick lightning beam instantly appeared in front of the cultists.

These miserable guys didn't even have time to scream, as the high-voltage current instantly turned their bodies and clothes into ashes.

"Boom!"

Behind them, even the rocks showed scorched marks and cracks, and countless gravel rolled down.

The man in mid-air waved his staff lightly, and the lightning beam instantly swept across a range of hundreds of meters, engulfing all the hundreds of cultists.

"I haven't cast a spell for so long, so I'm really a bit unskilled."

He then ended the spell and blew the smoke coming out of the bronze scepter.

Fine arcs of electricity were still pulsating around the staff, and the air exploded with crackling sounds, as if they were still recalling the mighty attack.

"嗗嗗."

At this moment, there are still electric arcs crisscrossing the ground, and the hundreds of cultists have been reduced to ashes, with wisps of blue smoke rising from them.

On the Mar Mountain behind, a charred mark spanned hundreds of meters and penetrated deeply into the rock, like a giant cutting a scar on the hillside with a knife.

"Heim, this is so"

Looking at the charred remains of the enemy just now, Malvin, the captain of the guard, was stunned and could hardly hold the rifle in his hand.

Hundreds of meters away, the black-robed bishop stared at the man suspended in mid-air, panting and gritting his teeth:

"You cannot stop the Order's plan, and the great cause of the Lord God will succeed.

Just wait, by then, you sinners will be thrown into endless purgatory.

Warriors of the Lord God! Hold him back, and your souls will ascend to the real heaven! ”

The black-robed bishop waved his hand, and behind him, a miscellaneous army of wilderness monsters such as goblins, bugbears, and jackals suddenly swarmed forward with fanatical expressions.

And he held the bone staff in his hand, preparing to activate psychic teleportation again and evacuate from here.

This spellcaster is outside their plan and needs to discuss with several adults in the cult to find a strategy to deal with it, so that he can welcome the arrival of the Lord of Dominance in a perfect posture.

"Who gave you the courage to escape under my nose?"

However, only a sneer was heard, and the surrounding space was instantly distorted and shattered. The man had already reached his head and raised the bronze scepter in his hand.

The sky has become dense with dark clouds and shrouded in haze, and there is a faint light in the billowing clouds, accumulating terrifying power.

The black-robed bishop looked up at the dense thunderclouds and the thunder and lightning that was about to fall. He shook his head and murmured to himself:

"No, no, the Lord God will protect me, these sinners cannot kill me"

"Boom!"

A thunderbolt resounded across the sky.

Bolts of lightning as thick as the mouth of a bowl suddenly descended from the thunderclouds, tearing the sky apart like a spear, and striking the bishop like a divine punishment.

Around the black-robed bishop, a strong psychic shield suddenly unfolded, but in front of this terrifying lightning, it was like paper and was easily shattered.

"No——"

The next moment, the dazzling lightning engulfed the bishop. When the lightning gradually dissipated, only a pile of ashes remained on the ground.

However, the man in the sky still held up the bronze scepter in his hand, and the thick dark clouds were still spreading rapidly, covering the sky and the sun, and covering the entire monster army.

"Lord God above, what is that?"

"Bishop, the Bishop is dead!"

"Kill him! Kill that human spellcaster! The Lord God will protect us and make us the new bishops!"

"Yes, tear him apart! For the Lord of Dominance!"

The fanatical monster soldiers shot arrows into the sky, threw stones, short spears, and even a strong jackal tried to drag him to the ground.

However, invisible force field magic surrounded the man, and all the arrows and short spears were deflected, and instead pierced themselves. "The God of Dominance?

This kind of thing actually dares to claim to be a god? ”

The man looked down at the crazy monsters with contempt, pacing in the sky carelessly, turning a blind eye to their crazy attacks.

His calm voice echoed across the wasteland, even drowning out the noisy roars of the monsters.

The hurricane swept across the land, blowing the monsters around, and even some goblins were swept up in the air.

Finally, the man calmly waved down the bronze scepter, and the terrible thunder accumulated in the dark clouds was about to pour out. The wind was howling, but the world seemed to fall into silence.

The well-informed eldest daughter of the Silver family, who was fighting hundreds of meters away, recognized this spell.

——She had seen descriptions of this spell in the ancient books of the Arcane Monastery.

Heloise looked up at the thick dark clouds covering the earth and murmured to herself: "This is the ancient nine-ring spell"

"Storm of Revenge."

The next moment, her pupils were filled with the dazzling reflected lightning, the sky suddenly became brighter, and the faces of everyone present were pale.

"Boom!"

"Boom! Boom!"

The thunder was like a furious beast, roaring and roaring wantonly.

Countless lightnings with terrifying power descended from the sky, like divine punishment coming to the world, blasting the monsters on the ground into pieces.

"O God of Dominance!"

"I don't want to die!"

"This, this is divine punishment, this is the punishment of the Lord God on us! That man is the messenger sent by Him!"

"The world is going to be destroyed!"

The surviving goblins, bugbears, gnolls, gray dwarves and other evil creatures were wailing and fleeing in all directions.

But what awaits them is not a way out, but a more desperate scene.

The dark clouds were churning and churning, filled with lightning and thunder, the wind howling, and bolts of lightning descended one after another, chasing the monsters.

Immediately afterwards, countless bone-eroding acid rain fell from the clouds. Many monsters had dense holes eroded on their heads and backs, and they soon fell to the ground.

"Ah!"

"O God of Dominance"

"It hurts! It's the rain! It's the murderous rain!"

Eventually, strong winds and icy rain will hit all areas under the clouds, freezing the remaining scarred monsters into ice cubes, ending their degrading lives.

After all this was over, the dark clouds gradually dispersed, and the sun shone on the earth again, as if nothing had ever happened.

Only the broken short spears on the ground, the remains of monsters and the black marks left by lightning can remind people of the natural disaster storm just now.

A monster army with thousands of people was easily destroyed in this way.

But the man who made all this with his own hands looked as normal and was still suspended in mid-air, as if he had just done an insignificant thing.

The gray cloak behind him was motionless in the wind, and the bronze scepter in his hand shone brightly in the sunlight.

However, no one noticed that an ugly larva that was constantly twisting appeared in his sleeve, was wrapped in a film of light, and then disappeared.

"O Gods"

"Call"

"Thank the gods, we survived."

"I can't believe what happened today. Is this a dream?"

"Yes, the attacker suddenly appeared, and the spell caster."

The people in the Silver caravan collapsed on the ground. They talked to each other with lingering fear, pouring out their feelings about escaping death.

They all looked to the sky, focusing on the mysterious man who came to help, and suddenly fell silent again.

"."

Yes, everything is not over yet. Whether they can leave here depends on whether the spell caster is an enemy or a friend. The disaster-like scene just now is still lingering in their minds.

What happened today was so bizarre that everyone in the Silver Caravan was overwhelmed.

They were first ambushed by cultists and monster legions, targeted by the so-called "Lord of Lords", and then rescued by this spellcaster.

The man in the sky landed on the ground, but made no next move, just waiting for something quietly.

Heloise said in a deep voice: "Malvern, take good care of these family guards and tell them not to act rashly.

I'm going to express my gratitude to that adult. ”

Malvin hesitated for a moment, and then reminded softly: "Miss, I'm afraid this is a bit dangerous, how about we"

However, Heloise walked quickly towards the north, leaving behind a decisive word: "I am the leader of the Silver family caravan, you are only responsible for following orders."

Malvin knew that there was no hope of dissuading him, so he lowered his head and responded respectfully: "Yes, Miss."

Heloise observed the mysterious spellcaster calmly: he looked to be in his forties or fifties, with a neat beard and an old gray cloak.

He has a unique temperament. Just standing there is the center of the world, and everything seems to revolve around him.

Although he was a bit older, his face was also very charming, and there was a certain familiar emotion in his deep eyes - it seemed to be contempt.

This kind of emotion was very familiar to Heloise. It was the contempt that a superior person inadvertently shows when he treats a subordinate person.

"Such a powerful spellcaster, if not arrogant, would be a bit abnormal."

Heloise thought of this. She came to the man, lifted up her skirt, saluted respectfully, lowered her eyes, and then said:

"Hello and sincere thanks to Heloise Silver from Victoria Harbor.

Lord Warlock, you generously and selflessly extended a helping hand to help us repel the enemy. Our Silver family will give you enough reward to..."

The man interrupted her slightly surprised: "Can you tell that I am a warlock?"

Heloise answered truthfully: "Only a powerful warlock like you can have this kind of charm, but this is the first time I have seen someone of your level."

The man suddenly understood, shook his head and said with a smile: "I haven't interacted with ordinary people for so long that I even ignored this.

But I have never heard of the city of Victoria Harbor. It should be Newport in Silver Moon Bay. ”

Before he finished speaking, the aura around him suddenly converged and became as ordinary as a mortal.

Heloise was suddenly startled and her mind was racing - you must know that Victoria Harbor was established four hundred years ago. At that time, the ancestor of the Silver family was still an unknown fisherman.

But this mysterious and powerful warlock has never heard of Victoria Harbor!

Who is he?

So, Heloise lowered her stance further and asked proactively: "My lord, you are the benefactor of the Silver family, how should we call you?"

The man, or rather Cassius, smiled warmly and replied in a relaxed tone:

"Miss Heloise, right? Getting rid of those bugs is just a casual thing, it's not a big deal.

As for the title, you can call me the hermit. "(End of Chapter)
