The most powerful wizard in the magic world
Chapter 5 Weathering and Magic Array
The air in the laboratory was filled with an ancient and heavy atmosphere, and the mottled marks on the walls seemed to tell countless stories of the past. As soon as Gerling stepped out of the door, a raven chirped softly beside his shoulder, as if reminding him of the danger lurking behind him. He turned around and was about to examine the gradually fading parchment again, but an uneasy premonition followed him like a shadow.
This parchment is the result of the alchemist's hard work, carrying the records of countless experiments and precious knowledge. However, as time passed, these records gradually weathered and became fragile. Gerlin reached out his hand, wanting to touch it gently and feel the power it once had, but he didn't expect that the parchment made a faint click under his fingertips, and then it instantly broke into countless pieces.
As the weathering progressed, the atmosphere in the laboratory suddenly became tense. Gerlin's heart instantly rose to his throat, and his eyes accidentally caught a glimpse of the magic circle emitting a faint blue light in the corner of the wall. It was a defensive magic circle, once set up to protect the skeleton, and now it seemed to be awakened the moment the parchment was broken.
"This is not a good sign." Gerlin thought to himself. Just as he was about to escape, the magic circle seemed to come alive, emitting a dazzling light, and quickly expanded to the entire laboratory. Gorgeous runes intertwined in the air, emitting heart-pounding energy fluctuations, like a beast lurking in the abyss, ready to hunt unfortunate prey at any time.
The halo surged like a tide, and Gerlin felt suffocated, and then instinctively retreated. He realized that the defensive array was not just a protection, but that its core might contain a more sinister power. His body's intuition warned him: If he didn't escape quickly, the consequences would be disastrous.
At this moment, the raven hummed in his ear, as if conveying some kind of message. It quickly flapped its wings and flew towards the core of the magic circle. Its black wings were particularly clear in the light. Gerlin was stunned for a moment, and a feeling of uneasiness surged in his heart. The raven was his most trusted companion, but now it put itself in danger, which made him deeply anxious.
"Come back! Don't come near!" he shouted anxiously, but the raven seemed to be attracted by some invisible force, letting Garlin's call dissipate in the air.
As the parchment shattered, the energy of the magic circle became more and more intense. Gerlin looked at the dazzling light that made it impossible to look directly at it, and a strong desire to survive surged in his heart. He turned around and began to run to the other end of the laboratory, secretly thinking about the way to escape.
However, the power of the magic circle was approaching like a tide. Just as Gerlin passed through several narrow workbenches, he saw a lightning-like beam of light pointing directly in his direction. The attack without warning shocked him, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and he almost suffocated.
"I must find a way to break this magic circle!" He thought to himself, and what he had read in the book flashed through his mind, and the knowledge about these ancient defensive magic circles emerged.
His eyes quickly swept through the corners of the laboratory, looking for ways to unlock the magic circle. Suddenly, he noticed several ancient crystals that were placed by the wall, shining with a faint blue light. These crystals were the materials used in the laboratory to strengthen the magic circle, and the energy in them might be used by him to reverse the current situation.
Gerlin hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to take a risk. He rushed to the side of the crystal, trying to avoid encountering the fast-moving beam of light. As he approached, the crystal seemed to sense his intention and emitted a brighter light, as if calling him.
"Quick, give me strength!" He stretched out his hand and touched one of the crystals. The warm energy instantly poured into his body and turned into a strong impact that made him feel dizzy.
He closed his eyes and silently chanted an ancient and mysterious spell in his heart, trying to combine the energy of the crystal with the reaction of the magic circle. In front of the out-of-control magic circle, his will was like a tough rope, constantly taking root in the storm.
The speed of the light beam became faster and faster, and Gerlin felt panic in his heart. However, he clearly felt that the energy of the crystal gradually resonated with his spiritual consciousness, as if an invisible hand was guiding him and directing him to resolve this crisis.
At this moment, the raven was in the center of the magic circle, its black wings particularly conspicuous in the light. It seemed to sense Gerlin's predicament, and it flapped its wings vigorously, making a piercing cry, like a siren that penetrated through the waves, trying to pull him back from the desperate situation.
"Come back soon, Raven!" Gerlin was in great pain, but the raven was unmoved. Instead, it stayed at the core of the magic circle, as if providing Gerlin with a source of power.
"This can't go on any longer!" He was determined to make a final move. With the power of the crystal, he concentrated all his energy and cast the most powerful reversal spell. He waved his hand towards the center of the magic circle, trying to transform the power of the crystal into a weapon to break the magic circle.
At the same time, the halo of the magic circle spread out, like rippling water, reflecting brilliant light. Gerlin's spell and the power of the magic circle began to clash, and a deafening roar came from the air, as if the entire laboratory was shaking.
"Break!" He roared, and the power in his heart turned into an absolute belief, rushing towards the invisible barrier. As the huge energy collided, the magic circle let out a heart-wrenching scream, and then collapsed in the strong light, like fragile glass, instantly shattered into pieces.
The raven struggled hard in the light and shadow, and finally got out of the magic circle, and flew back to Gerlin trembling. Its black feathers looked particularly moving in the interlaced light, adding a touch of mystery.
Gerlin felt the raven's return, and his heart was warmed. The tacit understanding and friendship between them became stronger at this moment. And the space in the laboratory gradually returned to calm as the magic circle collapsed, and the air was filled with smoke and the aftermath of chaos.
He slowly opened his eyes, and the light around him gradually faded. Fragments of parchment gently fell to the ground, like pieces of memory swept away by the wind. He couldn't help but look down at the broken pieces of paper, and his mind was filled with thoughts about the passage of knowledge and time. Perhaps this is the cycle of life, with both the glory of existence and the impermanence of disappearance.
Just as he took a short break, a strange shadow quietly emerged at the edge of his vision. It was a huge and twisted outline, as if lurking in the darkness, waiting for the opportunity to come. With a low and terrifying roar, the creature hidden in the laboratory was finally exposed to the light.
A big mouth with sharp white teeth suddenly opened, like tearing through the gloomy night sky, revealing teeth as sharp as knives, flashing an unusually cold light. Gerlin's heart was shocked, and he suddenly realized that he and Raven were in an extremely dangerous situation.
"Raven, get out of the way!" he yelled, his voice echoing in the empty laboratory. At this moment, his heart seemed to jump out of his chest, time seemed to freeze at this moment, fear and anxiety surged like a tide.
However, the raven seemed to be attracted by the big mouth, and its black wings fluttered in the air, trying to fight against the danger. But its figure seemed insignificant in front of the huge mouth, like a fragile bubble that could be punctured at any time.
Just as Gerling saw that things were about to get worse, the big mouth pounced on the raven without mercy. The violent wind whistled in his ears, as if all the turmoil in the world was gathered here. Gerling's heart was broken, and he rushed forward with all his strength, trying to use his body to block the irreparable tragedy.
But it was too late. The cries of the raven became weak in the face of the terrifying force, as if it was struggling. The big mouth was like the throat of a giant beast, swallowing the raven in an instant. The sharp teeth tore out countless tiny feathers, and in an instant, it was torn into countless pieces.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and Gerling felt a heart-wrenching pain in his chest, as if his soul was also being torn apart. He staggered in despair, anger and pleading flashing in his eyes, staring wide to try to catch the last scene, but he only saw feathers flying in the air, drifting away like a meteor shower, and disappearing into the endless darkness.
"Raven!" He cried out in pain, his voice echoing in the corner of the laboratory, like an innocent wail. His heart was torn into pieces, the scene before him was unbearable, the loneliness and sadness of losing his partner almost suffocated him.
However, Gerlin knew that he could not sink into despair. He took a deep breath, a strong anger ignited in his heart, and his eyes became more determined. He needed to avenge Raven and must not let this monster do whatever he wanted. Next, he had to face this terrifying existence.
He quickly searched for weapons around him, his eyes fixed on the crystals in the corner of the laboratory that were gleaming with a faint blue light. They were not only the materials for strengthening the magic circle, but also contained powerful energy. If he could turn them into weapons, there might be a glimmer of hope.
"Come on!" Gellin yelled, quickly grabbing a crystal with both hands and pouring all his strength into it. He could feel the warmth coming from the crystal, as if responding to his anger and determination. As the power gathered, a dazzling blue light flashed in his hands.
At this moment, the terrifying big mouth roared again, as if mocking his incompetence. Gerlin was furious, and regardless of his fear, he resolutely stepped forward towards the monster.
"Do you want to devour it? Come on!" He gritted his teeth and threw the crystal into the giant mouth without hesitation. As he moved, the flashing blue light was like thunder that cut through the sky and went straight into the monster's throat.
"Boom!" The explosion of the crystal was like the collapse of the sky and the earth, instantly tearing apart the tranquility of the laboratory. The powerful energy hit the monster's throat, and endless light enveloped its body, causing the entire laboratory to tremble.
Gellin saw all this and felt a surge of pleasure in his heart, but was soon swallowed up by the fear that followed. The monster did not stop there, it roared angrily, and spurted out hot air from its mouth, heading straight for Gellin. The temperature in the air suddenly rose, as if he was in purgatory.
"Quick, get out of the way!" He suddenly realized that he had to stay alert in this ever-changing battle. He quickly turned sideways, taking advantage of the momentary chaos caused by the crystal explosion, and rushed to the corner of the laboratory, trying to find a stronger weapon.
However, the monster's figure followed closely, chasing him relentlessly. Its huge mouth opened again, and it pounced with a piercing roar, and the air was filled with a breath of fear. Just before Gerlin was about to be swallowed, he turned around suddenly, and the potion rack in front of him seemed to be instantly ignited by his anger, becoming his weapon for counterattack.
He grabbed a bottle of purple potion and threw it towards the monster's mouth without hesitation. The potion drew a beautiful arc in the air and then suddenly exploded. The brilliant light bloomed like fireworks in the darkness, instantly illuminating the monster's face.
"Fall!" Gerlin roared, his anger and despair intertwined into an invisible force that pushed him to the climax of the battle. The monster roared in pain in the explosion of the potion, no longer invincible, and its sharp teeth seemed to flash with fear.
He took the opportunity to continue attacking, grabbing the objects around him, and using every tool in the laboratory to launch a frantic counterattack against the monster. His anger was like a flood, breaking through the fear in his heart, turning into endless courage, forcing him to move towards the path of survival.
Each attack was like turning the wheel of fate. As Gerling moved, the monster's roar gradually weakened, and its body twisted in collapse, gradually revealing its true form. It was a particularly disgusting creature, with a twisted body covered with pale skin and an unnatural glow.
"You killed Raven!" Gerlin roared, his hatred for the terrible creature growing stronger. He no longer cared, turned into a rebel, and vowed to use his own power to avenge Raven.
After repeated attacks, the monster's roar was gradually eliminated, and Gerlin's anger burned like a raging flame. Finally, with a heavy blow, the monster fell down powerlessly, as if it was completely conquered.
He panted, and knelt on the floor of the laboratory in exhaustion and pain. The surroundings returned to peace again. The longing for Raven in his heart surged like a tide, accompanied by tears of despair, and he realized that he had lost the most precious thing.
"I will avenge you, Raven." He murmured to himself, his eyes flashing with determination, and the seeds of rebirth were planted in his heart. All this will not end, Gerling's journey has just begun, and he will embark on a more difficult journey with Raven's soul.
