Magic power surged wildly following Patricia’s movents.
At the three positions where the wizards of Barrier Mountain stood, as well as her own position, a total of four spots in the air, rectangular nested circles of pale black lines appeared centered on their locations all at once.
The next second.
Patricia vanished from where she stood.
Or rather, at this mont, her figure instantly shuttled through the air, appearing at the positions of the enemy wizards with a speed that defied common sense, and nearly simultaneously unleashed deadly slashes that were entirely different from each other.
Swoosh—
Clang clang—
The sound of flesh being cleaved.
Followed by two loud clangs of tal colliding.
Patricia’s figure returned to the center of the rectangle where she had started.
Correspondingly, another enemy in the air had plunged into the sea, and the other two who had blocked the attacks, their controlled flying boards now bore obvious sharp cuts and gashes.
"Very good!"
"Even in the outside world, you Nicholas continue to push forward with your research of the original texts, don’t you!"
The wizard of Barrier Mountain once again put distance between himself and Patricia.
He gazed at the array lines moving with him and his tone was as appreciative as it was before.
"During the decisive battle of those years, didn’t you Nicholas vow to ensure absolute neutrality? Why now must you oppose us for their sake?"
As he said this, one of the two figures pointed behind:
"Look, is the situation not clear now?"
"Wise wizards should stand on the side of victory!"
"..."
The picture pointed out by the wizard of Barrier Mountain was indeed very realistic.
Although Dantrian’s casters were formidable in combat, facing Barrier Mountain’s double-digit wizards capable of using Complete Technique, they invariably found themselves at a disadvantage during exchanges.
Within the giant vortex ford by the magic power storm.
The area occupied by Dantrian’s side was now near two-fifths.
Without any new twists or reinforcents, defeat was almost certain to be the outco of this battle.
Patricia subconsciously glanced toward the mainland of the port area.
At such tis, many casters from other countries or forces were still watching the battle with keen interest.
These people...
Suddenly, Patricia shook her head slightly.
She did not continue to speculate about those ’ifs’, but gripped the Cold Strike Blade in her hand and once again swung her sword to launch an attack on the enemy.
"Foolish!"
Seeing that Patricia was beyond persuasion, the wizard of Barrier Mountain cursed one last ti, and his magic power beca even more formidable.
Boom boom—
In that mont, two dark shadows shot out from the whirlpool in the waters below.
The two flying boards that Patricia had knocked down tore through the sea and flew into the air, forming a pincer attack with the two above, directly blocking any room for Patricia to dodge.
After two unsuccessful persuasions.
The wizard of Barrier Mountain had no intention of continuing his clamor.
If Nicholas could only be an enemy, it was better to die imdiately.
Bang—
A muffled low thud sounded from the point of contact.
In this mont, relying on the unrestrained power of her spells, Patricia swung upward with the Cold Strike Blade, which now possessed an edge that could seemingly cut through anything. As it ca into contact with the flying board of the wizard of Barrier Mountain, she forcefully chopped one in half!
Alas, the wizard of Barrier Mountain was also a relentless fighter with abundant combat experience.
As the first caster who planned to break through the support sector, he imdiately realized this was his chance to defeat this Nicholas.
In the instant his flying board was severed by the blade.
The other two flying boards suddenly accelerated, seizing the opportunity to avoid the edge of the Cold Strike Blade and firmly clamped the sword from the side.
At the sa ti.
The last flying board charged straight towards Patricia!
"..."
At this instant, the mont of decision arrived for Patricia.
If she chose to let go and dodge the attack, she could have avoided this strike.
But as a Swordsman, the habits ingrained in her blood made it impossible to make such a choice; her right hand still firmly grasped the Cold Strike Blade as she seized the opportunity to kick sideways at the flying board.
Bang—
A dull thud.
Patricia was sent flying directly out.
Her uncompromising grip indeed allowed her to retain the Cold Strike Blade in her hand.
But what followed was an unrestrained attack from the wizards of Barrier Mountain.
This was the holder of the original text!
Even though the Complete Technique did not enhance this strike, it was still powerful enough to kill most Casters. Aside from the impact of the flying board itself, the subsequent erosion from the magic power was enough trouble for anyone.
"..."
Snap—
Unsurprisingly, Patricia fell into the water.
However, she did not lose consciousness.
The support team that Patricia was protecting was also paying attention to the battlefield.
Although they would not directly rush up to help her, soone still cast a defensive spell on Patricia at the mont when the Barrier Mountain wizard’s flying board approached, causing her to sustain only minor impact injuries.
Yet, this did not an that Patricia was out of danger.
Not defeated by the Barrier Mountain wizard’s attack, but the troubles presented by the environnt itself were extrely tricky.
Just as Patricia hit the water.
A huge whirlpool, stirred up by magic power, drew her in.
In barely the blink of an eye, the girl neared the centre of the whirlpool, nearly getting dragged deeper beneath the water.
"..."
Patricia imdiately channelled magic power into her sword.
Attempting to use the power of the Cold Strike Blade to break free.
But the ability of a single sword simply could not keep up with the speed of the seawater. In the instant the ice froze, the currents had already carried Patricia to the centre of the whirlpool, leaving virtually no chance to leverage a breakaway.
Swish—
Everything went dark.
Patricia had been swept below the surface by the whirlpool.
The violently stirring waters made it impossible to maintain balance; the spinning images before her eyes torn asunder by the chaotic sea, she couldn’t even ascertain which way she was facing.
The next mont.
Patricia’s platinum hair crashed against the Cold Strike Blade amidst the turmoil of the sea.
How could strands of hair stand against a blade?
In an instant, Patricia’s long hair was severed by the Cold Strike Blade, before tangling before her own face.
Visibility beca entwined with her own hair in the dark seawater.
Everything in front of her was hard to discern.
For so reason, Patricia suddenly thought of Ronald.
If Ronald were still trapped under the waters of Springs at this mont, then in such a situation, what kind of trouble might he encounter?
She continued to be swept downward by the sea.
Could it be that at the bottom of these waters, she’d encounter Ronald, similarly trapped?
"..."
Suddenly, in a brief gap of visibility,
Patricia vaguely saw a vast and terrifying shadow in the waters in one direction, gradually approaching her in the dark sea.
And in front of this imnse shadow...
It seed...
There was another figure?
