Chapter 1123 - 385: Earth-shattering
Chapter 1123: Chapter 385: Earth-shattering
"Wait a minute, Rein, right?"
"Actually, we don’t need to come to this point. If you’re willing to switch sides, we can have a good talk." Suddenly, Harold, with a smile, walked forward with two others and said.
"You know what I mean by switching sides. I can guarantee your safety and offer better treatment than before."
"My name is Harold. If you’ve heard of this name, then you should know I’m not joking."
Harold stepped forward to say these words for a reason.
It was because, with the sharp perception of someone about to advance to the Fourth Level Dawn Wizard, he could feel that the Rein in front of him seemed to have the same kind of confidence or assurance as he did.
It wasn’t that he was afraid, but Harold felt the opponent should have some support.
If it came to a fight, it would probably take some effort. So, if he could complete the task more easily, why not?
"Hiss~ It’s actually ’Carver’ Harold." Claire, standing behind Rein, could not help but open her eyes wide, gasping in shock!
She didn’t expect the Drum Family could actually invite this rumored strongest legend to deal with their captain, Rein.
Although the opponent only gained fame during the Imperial City battle a few months ago, Claire, as a fellow wizard, had heard of ’Carver’ Harold’s exploits long ago.
It’s said that Harold likes to turn his defeated opponents into stone sculptures using Third Level ’Petrification Skill’ and then place them within his mansion.
In his leisure time, Harold would admire them while engraving something on these permanently petrified ’opponents’ with a carving knife.
This is also where his title ’Carver’ comes from.
"That strongest legend Harold?" Beyonce, usually quite steady, also looked horrified at this moment.
However, Rein just chuckled softly.
The opponent really thought he was just a young man in his early twenties and dared to play such little tricks on him.
One must know that many school children from his past life had thoroughly studied the thirty-six stratagems; the opponent must have thought he was a three-year-old child to fall for such an obvious ruse.
Join the arms of the Conservative Party?
Given the current situation, some people in the Conservative Party will never accept him, and he would then become an enemy of the Reformist Party.
"Hehe, I give the same words to you three." Rein looked at Harold and the others and said.
Hmm?
At first, the Second Level Liquidized Wizard Darren beside Harold frowned because he hadn’t understood Rein’s words yet, but he became furious as soon as he did!
"You...."
It was his first time encountering someone so disrespectful to Lord Harold.
At this moment, Harold’s face also turned gloomy, his lips moving quickly.
He swiftly raised his hand and pointed at Rein, a mass of dense earth-toned energy, resembling a bolt of yellow lightning, rapidly shot towards Rein through the knotted short stick.
In an instant, the energy mass hit Rein.
Visibly, Rein’s body began to petrify, starting from his feet.
The dense earth-toned energy swiftly climbed upward like a vine-like plant, quickly passing his ankle and moving up towards his calf and knee.
"Third Level Witchcraft ’Petrification Skill’!" Beyonce exclaimed.
"Captain, be careful, this is Petrification Skill." Claire shouted anxiously beside her.
This was Third Level Witchcraft, and the opponent had nearly reached instant casting, it was terrifying. The two women were now a bit panicked and helpless.
Seeing this, Darren couldn’t help but sneer and said: "Hmph, I thought he was so mighty, but he couldn’t even withstand one move from Lord Harold."
"How dare he speak wildly just now! It’s utterly laughable!"
"Let me teach you a lesson!"
Seeing Darren step forward, intending to give Rein a few slaps, he had been just displeased with this guy Reinhard moments ago.
In the eyes of the onlookers, including Darren, Rein was about to be completely swallowed by the Petrification Skill and had no means of resistance.
And the nearby execution team also looked on with a smile, whispering to each other.
Many immediately relaxed, and a few even looked as if victory was a certainty.
However, Harold suddenly sensed something, his eyes narrowed, and he immediately shouted: "Darren, get back here!"
But it was too late!
Rein swiftly raised his hand, pointed at Darren not far ahead, and unexpectedly, a giant metal net appeared out of nowhere, sparkling with silver light as it rapidly shot towards Darren.
Facing this sudden change, Darren’s eyes widened, clearly astonished.
But after all, he was a veteran Second Level Liquidized Wizard, reacting swiftly, and his innate wizardry was immediately activated.
"Stone Skin Technique!"
A mass of earth, like flowing water, quickly rose from the ground, covering Darren’s entire body.
But in the next moment, a silver giant net passed through his body!
"Hiss!"
With a bewildered expression, Darren stood still, protected by Stone Skin, his body unmoving!
Soon after, like a shattered statue, Darren, along with the stone skin on his body, was cut into a stack of evenly-sized squares by Rein’s ’Cutting Net.’
At this moment, Rein’s body was also covered in a dense black-gray halo.
This halo swiftly suppressed the earth-toned energy, advancing rapidly from top to bottom, and soon Rein’s calves, ankles, and feet quickly returned to normal.
This scene left everyone present dumbfounded.
Especially those from the courtroom execution team, their faces turned pale, because most of them had been contemplating the same idea as Darren, thinking whether they should confront Rein somehow, as a form of leverage.
But the brutal scene before them suddenly reminded them that this young man was no ordinary character; he was the fierce figure who slew Greenwood and others.
"Darren!!" Caroline, standing beside Harold, looked at the brutal scene ahead with a face full of disbelief and exclaimed.
Immediately after, she was trembling with anger, glaring at Rein, saying, "You’re doomed! You actually killed Darren!"
Darren and she were both from the Isodre School, and since they followed Harold together, their relationship was close, but unexpectedly, Darren suddenly died this time.
And Harold at this moment started taking Rein seriously, he was assessing this young man before him once more, his eyes flickering.
Because the witchcraft the other performed just now was too fast and too powerful; judging from the sensed strength initially, the other seemed not to be a Third Level Crystalized Wizard.
But how does this explain the rare Metal Series witchcraft just performed, with power almost at the level of Third Level Witchcraft?
Could it be that the other has some special Witch Artifact that can amplify the power of Metal Series witchcraft?
But now, Harold couldn’t spare the time to think deeply because Darren’s death had focused all other people’s gazes on him.
Harold quickly took out a bag of white powder and scattered it, as he rapidly chanted a spell.
The next second, with his willow short stick pointing to the ground.
Suddenly, the ground began to shake, rapidly swelling and bulging, seeming like some giant thing was about to break through the earth.
"Summon Giant Sandworm!"
A shape resembling a centipede enlarged a hundred times emerged from the ground, raising a massive sandstorm, aggressively charging towards Rein.
But it wasn’t over.
Immediately, two more giant sandworms broke through the surface on both sides, their ferocious mandibles tangled quickly, also focusing their attention on Rein.
"This... this is too strong, to summon three Legendary Species Giant Sandworms at once, this...." Claire had already, as per Rein’s prior instructions, torn open a Second Level Defense Witchcraft Scroll.
She and Beyonce were currently being shielded by a giant transparent inverted bowl.
Faced with this scene, Rein’s expression remained unchanged; however, his lips moved quickly a few times, only to hear a deep voice emanating:
"Metal Morphing Spell!"
"Cutting Net!"
"Sharpness Technique!"
"Witchcraft Killing Move: Multiple Cutting Net!"
Three bright silver giant nets suddenly appeared in front of Rein.
"Swish!"
As he reached his hand forward, swinging forcefully, the three silver giant nets swiftly flew towards the attacking giant sandworm!
"Slash!"
In an instant, the scene was nearly identical to the one where Darren was just killed.
The giant sandworm exposed above the ground, although its height was almost ten meters, shattered in an instant, with chunks of flesh falling down like raindrops.
Soon, it became a heap of shredded meat, a large amount of bodily fluid and red and white matter scattered on the ground.
As for the other two giant sandworms, upon seeing their companion get instantly killed, hesitated, daring not to advance and attack.
"Oh? Is this... the Liquidation Kill Move? Is this your trump card?" Seeing this scene, Harold couldn’t possibly not be surprised.
But at this moment, his joy overshadowed his surprise.
Because, in his view, he had already forced out Rein’s hidden trump card, and the other must have relied on this move to defeat many formidable opponents.
"Hehe, quite the talent and strength, and if given time to grow, perhaps, one day in the future, I may not even be your match."
"But unfortunately, today, you will fall here."
"Rein, do you know why large schools are called large schools?"
"Besides the Sect Leader being a Fourth Level Dawn Wizard, the most fundamental reason is that large schools have a more complete heritage."
"What you just showcased was some Metal Series Liquidation Kill Move, right? But did you know, above the Liquidation Kill Move, there is the Crystalization Kill Move!"
Suddenly, Harold began chanting loudly from within his earth elemental shield.
"First Level Witchcraft Earth-shattering Skill!"
Suddenly, the ground within hundreds of meters radius began shaking, many people even couldn’t stand steadily, fleeing outside, with many houses at the edge of Tafulin Town collapsing.
"Second Level Witchcraft Stone Fall Skill!"
Suddenly, the sky was filled with dense, head-sized round stones, raining down towards the ground.
"Third Level Witchcraft Sandstorm!"
As the sandstorm towering dozens of meters high arose, it was as if half of Tafulin Town entered the apocalypse.
Sand filled the sky, blocking the sun, everything was dark, not to mention opening your eyes. If protection was insufficient, these fast-moving sands would directly penetrate the body, causing harm.
"Crystalization Kill Move: Earth-shattering!"
With Harold’s final words, the three witchcraft skills were combined and amplified in a highly ingenious way.
For a time, the ground shaking was even more violent, even Great Knights nearly couldn’t stand steadily, and the size of falling stones increased from head-sized to millstone-sized.
The three witchcraft skills, especially the originally weaker First Level and Second Level witchcraft, reached a new level of power under the ingenious coupling of the Crystalization Kill Move.
Everyone present, witnessing witchcraft akin to a natural disaster, had faces ashen!
Only Rein remained standing firm, his gaze calm...
