Chapter 683: Chapter 193: The Target of All_2
Being driven into a such a predicament by an illusion was indeed a humiliation.
What was more, they couldn’t even find the enemy’s real form.
Their warship at the back hadn’t caught any image of the enemy breaking through the “landmine” formation and couldn’t analyse how he did it.
How could they intercept or defend if they couldn’t identify the opponent’s method?
In this way, the “landmine” formation became the home field where Link Grande could freely move in and out.
Moreover, it restrained their own team.
...
Was this what they called shooting themselves in the foot?
It made them seem really dull.
“Wait.”
The captain of the Great Sage Tower team gritted his teeth, “Wait for the opponent to lose patience, to reveal a flaw. I don’t believe he could keep acting this strange.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Link Grande’s figure appeared again.
Whether by coincidence or intention, he appeared in the exact spot he had previously disappeared.
After appearing, he did nothing but observe from a distance.
“Are we going to do something, captain?”
The wizard who asked previously was irritated.
“What are we going to do? Wait!”
The captain of the Great Sage Tower team’s tone hardened a bit.
However, he didn’t mean to reprimand his team member; he was just disgusted by Link’s antics again.
“Can’t we try a little attack to see if it’s the real person or just an illusion?”
The restless wizard was reluctant to give up and proposed a question.
“Let’s try? Then let’s try.”
Upon hearing the words, the captain of the Great Sage Tower team weighed up the situation and made a decision quickly, “Since you proposed it, you’ll do it. Everyone else, be prepared.”
“Okay.”
The wizard happily complied, his tone full of joy.
Covered by the captain and other team members, the wizard quickly launched a Second Ring Beam-type witchcraft, the “Frost Ray”.
Its target was Link Grande, who was watching them ostentatiously from the side.
The witchcraft was very fast.
Link Grande’s response was equally quick. He lightly lifted his right index finger and touched the “Frost Ray” when it was about thirty centimeters away from him.
A wave of cold surged from his finger, causing the penetrating and freezing “Frost Ray” to stop, condensing it into a thumb-sized light ball, and then freezing it.
This action happened very quickly, almost in the blink of an eye.
The scene in the other wizard’s eyes seemed a bit distorted.
Link Grande was clearly still lifting his finger, but the “Frost Ray” had already been condensed into a ball and been frozen.
Such a reaction, such speed, it was indeed frightening.
At the point when both teams believed the one who could easily handle the “Frost Ray” must be the real person, Link Grande’s figure once again disappeared like a bubble, vanishing into thin air.
They still couldn’t tell whether this was the real person pretending to be an illusion or an actual illusion.
Anyway, they couldn’t penetrate it and could only guess.
“Damn it, here we go again?”
The captain of the Great Sage Tower team and the wizard who’d attempted to test Link both lost their confidence.
Link Grande didn’t disappear sooner or later but did so right after freezing the “Frost Ray”.
Was this not a blatant mockery?
Yes, this was a blatant mockery!
“Ha ha ha…interesting.”
The captain of the Shadow City team laughed heartily, feeling quite cheerful.
Christina’s gaze fell on the place where Link’s figure disappeared, a trace of doubt flashing in her heart.
Other than stirring up the emotions of the two teams, what other use was there in doing this?
Would he come back again?
Many wizards from the two teams harbored the same doubts.
For a while, the 24 wizards on the field, and Link, who was hiding somewhere, all began to wait with or without purpose.
In reality, Link’s real form was always hidden in the Meteoroid Belt.
After the two teams started fighting, Link had called back Franda in advance.
Then, employing Franda’s speed and high mobility, he broke through the “landmine” formation, realizing “teleportation” through reverse summoning.
It’s just that what had been reverse summoned previously were just “out-of-body” versions of him.
The one who blocked the Great Sage Tower team’s exploratory attack was Franda.
The “out-of-body” version couldn’t cast witchcraft yet.
Link had intervened twice, disrupting the battle rhythm of the Great Sage Tower team and Shadow City team. He didn’t want their fight to end too quickly.
He wanted them to wait, just like they were doing now.
As time passed, impatience started to set in for some.
“Captain?”
In the Great Sage Tower team, another wizard spoke up.
Although he didn’t elaborate, the Captain knew what the team member wanted to communicate.
It was undoubtedly about why they had to follow Link Grande’s pace and wait around like fools.
Nevertheless, the Captain of the Great Sage Tower team was in a tough spot.
Of course, if he could, he wouldn’t want to wait.
But even though the first two appearances had been illusions, who could guarantee that the ones to follow wouldn’t be real?
If they let their guard down, given the attack power Link Grande had demonstrated, it was probable that he could annihilate them in one strike.
Then it wouldn’t matter if they had set up a trap aiming to lure Link Grande in; instead, they might get effortlessly defeated by him.
In that case, despite the rules established by the Supreme Council that would ensure they suffered only minor injuries and didn’t need to worry about their lives, they would lose an extraordinary amount of face.
The Captain of the Great Sage Tower team was between a rock and a hard place; he was extremely embarrassed.
Furthermore, he had an inkling that Link Grande’s repeated appearances as illusions might mean he had detected something and was probing.
So the question arose.
What was Link Grande probing for?
Probably whether the Great Sage Tower and Shadow City teams had means to “instant kill” him.
The Captain of the Great Sage Tower team regretted his actions deeply.
Why couldn’t he control his emotions and not harbor murderous intent?
The records clearly stated that Link Grande’s perceptual ability was particularly strong; without the interference of a high-level True Spirit Wizard, he could probabilistically foresee his fortunes and mishaps.
When push came to shove, they still couldn’t make every move perfect.
“Captain? What exactly are we waiting for?”
The wizard hadn’t received an answer, and he asked again, this time being more straightforward.
“Stop the chatter and keep waiting!”
The Captain of the Great Sage Tower team gritted his teeth and spoke forcefully, “Is this a contest of patience? We can hold out. However long he wants to wait, we can wait.”
The wizard opened his mouth, wanting to say something more.
His companion next to him gave him a tug and made him swallow his words.
Sigh!
Let’s keep waiting, then.
Link declared, “I’m waiting for my team to return. What are you two groups waiting for?”
The atmosphere in the Shadow City team was relatively better.
Delaying the time was advantageous to them.
After encountering a warship from Ravensmouth College, the Shadow City Outlander Colonization Team had sent a request for aid to their organization.
The rules of the Supreme Council stipulated that the scale of the team dispatched by a wizard organization aiming to seize the heritage must be equal to the scale of the team dispatched by the wizard organization excavating the heritage.
After a little reading comprehension, one could find that the Supreme Council did not limit the wizard organization excavating the heritage from asking for help.
If that wizard organization was willing, the whole group could be mobilized!
It was unlikely that Shadow City wouldn’t send any aid, right?
“What are you waiting for?”
In the Void Region.
Ragnar Walters was unceasing in his attacks. The Shadow City Level 5 Sage managed to avoid his onslaught and would only bear the enemy strikes when there was no other choice.
Another Level 5 witchcraft attack was blocked, but it did not elicit a counterattack. As Ragnar was preparing his next wave of attacks, he began taunting, “Are you waiting for your Shadow City reinforcements?”
The Shadow City Level 5 Sage did not respond, only maintaining a distance from Ragnar.
Reinforcements?
What the Shadow City Level 5 sage was waiting for wasn’t reinforcements, but rather the end of the conflict between the two teams below and the ownership of the Saint’s heritage.
Everything was going smoothly originally. If they delayed for a bit longer, the fight between the two teams would have reached a conclusion.
Who would have thought that out of nowhere, a fly in the ointment would appear.
The situation got stirred up, with the two teams neither fighting nor retreating. They were frozen in their places, unable to move.
If it wasn’t for being trapped in the Void Region, unable to escape for the time being or deliver orders.
The Shadow City Level 5 Sage really wished he could order his team to deal with that troublemaker.
You’re jumping about so joyously. If you want to snatch it, then do. If not, then don’t make a fuss.
Stop goddamn showing off.
What do you think?
