Although it was more likely that the Theocracy would reclaim player items from Black Scripture members when they weren't on a mission, he had to take these factors into account!
"I take back what I said earlier; you are no small fry."
Quin Essey's calm voice came from behind the water-blue lizard: "Did you avoid injury from the attack because of the defense of a magic item?"
"I can extend an invitation to you on behalf of the Slane Theocracy's 'Earth God' Chief Priest, and I can even provide compensation specifically for this matter."
"I refuse."
Lyle looked up and said coldly: "Trading your life for Xiao Hei's life is the only fair compensation."
"As expected, it's impossible to talk sense into you."
Quin Essey's crimson eyes turned cold; comparing his life to that trash-like Ghost Hound was simply an insult to him:
"I am very interested in the magic ritual you used. Don't worry, I'll leave you with a breath of life."
So what if he could use Fifth Tier Magic?
The Hero Realm was merely the threshold for the mysterious team he belonged to.
Almost the instant Quin Essey's voice fell!
From the shadow of a large tree not far behind Lyle, a brand new Four-tailed Black Panther that had been hiding in the shadows pounced silently toward Lyle's back.
"Silver Knight Spear."
Lyle didn't even turn his head; a silver knight's long spear condensed in mid-air, instantly piercing through the Four-tailed Black Panther.
He indeed had no detection-type magic, but he possessed the Martial Skill "Minds Eye," which allowed him to observe and perceive attacks outside his field of vision.
"Lightning Ball!"
At the same time as Lyle's brief exchange with Quin Essey, a dazzling ball of lightning boomed toward Quin Essey.
Boom!
"Hiss—"
The water-blue lizard hissed, immediately swinging its tail to strike the Lightning Ball; the contact caused a booming explosion in mid-air.
"How about we team up, kid? The opponent is skilled at summoning demonic beasts and controlling different ones for group combat."
The Gray-robed Mage's cold face revealed a smile as he spoke to Lyle: "Killing him is quite a hassle."
"Don't you want that Magic Cauldron of the lizardmen? That item is in my hands, as an exchange?"
His proposal was beneficial to both parties, and he didn't think Lyle would refuse.
However.
Bang! Bang!
With two flashes of brilliant light.
Two Archangels of Peace appeared on the field, their wings fluttering as they pounced toward Quin Essey.
Only then did Lyle turn around to look at the Gray-robed Mage: "I think the best choice is to resolve all of you in one go."
"You stu—" The Gray-robed Mage's expression froze as he started to curse, but in the next moment, he quickly released magic:
"Magic Shield!"
"Flame Knight Spear!"
Lyle spoke indifferently; a knight's long spear condensed from flames appeared instantly, booming toward the Gray-robed Mage.
Rumble!
The Flame Knight Spear collided with the Magic Shield, causing a massive explosion; the powerful impact forced the Gray-robed Mage back in a pathetic state.
"You..." The Gray-robed Mage was exasperated; just as he was about to release an offensive spell, a sharp whistling sound followed immediately.
"Storm Knight Spear!"
A long spear condensed from translucent gales boomed forward, its speed clearly faster than the "Flame Knight Spear."
Facing this situation.
The Gray-robed Mage had no time to dodge and could only helplessly continue using his fastest defensive magic to block:
"Magic Shield!"
Bam!
The Storm Knight Spear collided with the Magic Shield, letting out a series of intense, ear-piercing shrieks of friction.
Feeling the Storm Knight Spear's obvious continuous destructive power, the Gray-robed Mage's face changed.
He hurriedly and continuously poured magic power into the Magic Shield to barely withstand the Storm Knight Spear's ongoing destruction!
"Torrent Knight Spear."
Another incantation rang out.
The Gray-robed Mage's expression changed completely; he was currently pouring magic power into the "Magic Shield" and couldn't cast another spell.
Boom—
A water-blue stream of light flashed through the air.
The Magic Shield shattered!
The Gray-robed Mage coughed up blood, his eyes filled with a hint of terror as he looked at the "Torrent Knight Spear" that had struck him.
His gray mage robe shook, and an invisible magic barrier immediately expanded from the robe, blocking the Torrent Knight Spear.
"Just what is this!" With blood on the corner of his mouth, the Gray-robed Mage staggered back several steps, his face full of shock.
"Is the power of the water-type attack a bit weaker?" A faint voice rang out from the opposite side.
The speaker was naturally Lyle.
Through the "Mad Mage" passive "Element Conversion," attribute-based magic could be converted into the four main attributes: wind, fire, water, and earth.
"Silver Knight Spear" belonged to silver-attribute attack magic.
Lyle remembered that among the "Ten Great Demi-humans" of the Abelion Hills region, there was a Magic-manifesting Human Queen who, through the "Silver Knight Spear" spell, developed three attribute knight spear spells: thunderstorm, ice burial, and flame burn, which were called "Ice Flame Lightning" by other demi-humans.
Now that he could convert four attributes, should it be called "Wind Fire Water Earth"?
