Chapter 525 Defeat and Evacuation
Above the battlefield, two figures flashed and crisscrossed at a speed exceeding the visual limits of most living beings.
The black-robed wizard's figure moved like a film reel being cut repeatedly; one moment he was in the east, the next he was in the west.
Each "movement" erases the intermediate process by the law of "fiction," leaving only the constantly presented result of "already there."
Jemin, on the other hand, was a pure, dark golden stream of light.
He did not omit any process; his trajectory was complete and continuous.
However, the speed of this continuous trajectory has been pushed to the speed of light.
Therefore, in the eyes of others, Jemin's movement also presented a visual effect of almost instantaneous teleportation.
But the faint afterimages left by the light, created by the slight curvature of space, proved that his movement was "real".
Two equally elusive figures engaged in a breathtaking exchange of offense and defense within a radius of hundreds of kilometers above the battlefield.
Boom boom boom boom boom!!!
Every clash is a head-on collision between a lightning-fast punch and a [fictional] defense!
Jemin threw a straight punch, carrying extremely concentrated dark gold destructive energy, aimed directly at the black-robed wizard's head!
The black-robed wizard silently mobilized his computing power, and the [Fiction] Law was fully activated, instantly revealing the result that "the attack was perfectly blocked".
His right arm stretched across the trajectory of his fist as if he had teleported, and the invisible power of law clashed with the dark golden energy of the fire!
Click!
Jemin's fist shattered, scattering energy fragments everywhere.
However, almost at the same moment it shattered, Jemin's left fist, without any hindrance, shot out from the gap exposed after his right arm shattered, like a cannonball, straight for the black-robed wizard's face!
The black-robed wizard's expression changed drastically!
He had just used the majority of his credit limit to "define" the effect of his right arm block, and now it was too late to allocate a sufficient amount of credit for a completely new defense!
The only option was to forcibly turn the head, while simultaneously mobilizing the remaining computing power to hastily construct a thin, invisible barrier on the outside of the cheeks!
boom!
The barrier trembled violently!
Jemin's left fist smashed into the barrier, creating a fine, spiderweb-like crack!
The black-robed wizard was filled with shock and anger. His figure "disappeared" instantly, and the next moment he "appeared" in the sky a thousand meters away, trying to break away from Jemin's pursuit.
However, as soon as he revealed himself, a stream of dark golden light followed closely behind!
Jemin gave him no chance to breathe. At the same coordinate point where he "appeared," another whip kick, like a dark golden battle axe, came down towards his waist!
"You bastard—!"
The black-robed wizard gritted his teeth and had no choice but to use up his remaining quota to forcibly "define" the result that "this attack was deflected".
However, the force of the impact still sent him flying dozens of meters to the side, leaving him in a disheveled state.
At this point, the situation on the field had completely reversed.
A few minutes earlier, he had launched a surprise attack with "omitted process", leaving Jemin with no choice but to cut off his arm to survive and barely manage to fight back.
Now, it is Jemin who is pressing him with pure light speed, forcing him to rely on the [fictional] law to defend and escape desperately!
Moreover, the black-robed wizard was somewhat shocked and angered to discover that Jemin was getting stronger!
That dark golden energy body shattered and reformed faster each time; and after each reformation, the power of its fist was heavier than the last.
The black-robed wizard clearly sensed that Jemin's "efficiency in breaking through" his [fictitious] defenses was increasing at an alarming rate!
Below, Augusta hovered above the ravaged land, which had been ravaged countless times by the aftershocks, his black eyes fixed on the two wildly intertwined beams of light in the sky.
She had already stopped any attempts to attack.
It's not that I don't want to help, it's just that—I simply can't get involved.
With her dynamic vision and perception, she could only barely capture the moment the two clashed, and the destructive shockwaves that erupted after each collision, enough to easily tear apart the metal defenses she had built with all her might.
boom!
Another wave of impact is coming!
Augusta gritted his teeth and frantically unleashed his mental power, layering the dozens of newly formed metal armor plates surrounding him!
The ear-piercing sound of metal twisting echoed in my ears. The outermost three layers of armor tore and melted instantly upon impact, and the inner layers were also covered with shocking cracks!
She blocked it.
But it was merely a matter of "blocking" it.
Augusta gazed at the dark golden streak in the sky that had completely taken the initiative and was relentlessly pursuing the black-robed wizard.
His black pupils churned with extremely complex emotions.
Just a few days ago, she was already recognized as one of the top level five wizards in Norren Workshop.
Her title of "Goddess of War" was earned on the front lines by single-handedly defeating three elite enemy squadrons and even escaping unscathed from a level six wizard.
She was confident that among her peers, there were definitely no more than a handful who could surpass her.
But now————
She had to exert all her strength even to withstand the aftershocks of their battle.
And what about Jemin?
The guy she had vaguely sensed was unfathomable since her apprenticeship was now relentlessly attacking a level six elite, forcing the opponent to flee in a sorry state, utterly powerless to fight back.
"So all these years—" Augusta muttered to herself, her voice ripped apart by the howling energy turbulence, "what have I been chasing after all this time—"
The gap has not narrowed.
It even got bigger.
She thought she was running wildly, but even the other person's back was becoming increasingly blurry.
In the sky, the battle situation suddenly changed.
After the black-robed wizard escaped through "presentation," before he could regain his footing, Jemin's figure clung to him again like a persistent leech!
This time, the law patterns around the black-robed wizard showed obvious irregularities, dimming and discontinuity.
Under Jemin's relentless pressure, his "quota" was completely depleted within this unit of time.
Jemin didn't miss the opportunity.
He unleashed a punch he had been holding back for a long time, without any fancy moves or feints, just a pure, head-on strike!
The dark golden fist, like a spear of judgment piercing the heavens and earth, with the determination to destroy everything, tore through the weak and fragile law defense on the black-robed wizard's chest without any hindrance, and pierced through his chest fiercely!
puff!
With a muffled thud, flesh and blood exploded!
Dark red blood gushed out like a fountain from the huge penetrating wound in his chest!
The black-robed wizard's body arched violently from the impact of the terrifying force, his hood was knocked off, revealing a pale, thin, middle-aged man's face filled with astonishment and pain.
A surge of dark golden destructive energy, like a flood bursting its banks, rushed wildly into his chest.
It tried to erode his soul and burn his body along with his flesh and blood!
However, just as this deadly energy was about to spread throughout his body—
The black-robed wizard's computing power finally recovered, and the quota for the fictional laws was once again full.
Thus, the result was forcibly defined.
The dark golden torrent of destruction surging into his body was suppressed by an invisible, tyrannical force just before it was about to explode, and was imprisoned around the penetrating wound in his chest cavity.
Although it cannot be eradicated, at least its spread and outbreak have been prevented.
The black-robed wizard coughed violently, large gulps of dark red blood gushing from the corners of his mouth, soaking the front of his tattered black robe.
He lowered his head, looking at the dark gold arm that pierced through his chest, then slowly raised his head to meet Jemin's cold, calm, dark gold vortex pupils, which seemed to be merely executing a predetermined program.
The two stared at each other in silence for a moment.
The black-robed wizard's blood-stained lips suddenly curved into a complex smile, a smile that was a mixture of bitterness and a sense of relief.
"—I lost." His voice was hoarse, yet unusually calm.
Upon hearing this, Jemin's pupils contracted slightly; he suddenly sensed something.
Without hesitation, he suddenly exerted force with the arm that had penetrated the other's body, attempting to detonate all the remaining destructive energy before the other's energy could be restored in the next round!
However—his hand missed its target.
The black-robed wizard's figure, like morning mist dispersed by sunlight, rapidly faded and dissipated from the edge of his piercing wound.
The last remaining trace was the extremely complex expression in those dark red eyes when they looked at Jieming.
Then, the black-robed wizard completely vanished.
Jemin paused for a moment, then slowly withdrew his arm, which had pierced through the void and was stained with dark red blood.
The bloodstains lost their anchor in the air, quickly oxidized and dried, turning into fine powder that drifted away.
"Tsk—did they run away?" he said softly, his tone unreadable, whether it was regret or expectation.
In fact, he never had the expectation of "killing" the target.
Such a wizard, who is proficient in the laws of [fiction], is almost impossible to catch if he is determined to escape. His ability to "skip the process and directly present the result of the escape" makes him an untouchable force.
Let alone him, even if a level seven wizard came right now, the chances of catching up would be extremely slim, as long as the other party's quota hadn't been completely exhausted.
To force the opponent to flee with serious injuries, exhaust their credit limit, and even be forced to utter words of defeat such as "I lost"—this is already a result far exceeding expectations.
Jemin hovered in the void, slowly clenching his fist, savoring the blow that had just pierced through the opponent's chest.
It feels solid in the hand, the power transmission is smooth, and the energy erosion efficiency matches the projections.
In the state of Light Godhood, the resistance to the [Fiction] Law is also perfectly inherited.
—Excellent, all data have met the standards.
He did not linger too long in the afterglow of this rare victory.
After confirming that the black-robed wizard had completely escaped, a flash of dark golden light appeared around Jemin as he swooped down at the speed of light, appearing in front of Augusta in the blink of an eye.
Augusta was startled by his sudden approach and instinctively took a half step back, the remaining armor plates on her body buckling in response.
But Jemin gave her no time for pleasantries or surprise. His face showed no excitement at defeating a powerful enemy, only an extremely cold seriousness: "The commotion just now was too great. Enemy reinforcements may arrive at any moment."
"We must evacuate immediately. Split up."
Augusta, a seasoned veteran, instantly suppressed the complex emotions surging within her and quickly nodded: "Understood. I watched your collaboration channel with Blake before; I remember you agreed on a backup rendezvous point. I'll go there."
Without uttering any unnecessary words, Augusta's body was immediately enveloped in a surging silver-blue magnetic field.
The scattered metal debris on the ground around her was being grabbed by an invisible hand and frantically converged on her under the influence of the magnetic field!
In the blink of an eye, a silver-blue metallic armor that fit her body perfectly and covered every vital part of her body took shape on her body.
The armor has sharp lines, with azure halos flowing around the joints to enhance the magnetic field, and several pairs of wing-like metal wings on its back to aid in balance and acceleration.
Augusta gave Jemin one last look, his dark eyes holding a thousand unspoken words, but in the end, they all boiled down to a short and powerful sentence: "————We'll talk later."
Before she finished speaking, the magnetic field around her suddenly exploded!
Under her control, the magnetic field took on a shape resembling a cannon barrel.
The silver-blue lightning, like wings of thunder, propelled her figure like a cannonball accelerated to its limit by an electromagnetic track, tearing through the air and shooting towards the predetermined coordinates!
In the blink of an eye, only a rapidly shrinking blue-silver dot of light remained on the horizon.
Jemin watched her leave.
After confirming that the other party had completely left the scene, he hovered in place, slowly closed his eyes, and took a deep breath—although he did not need to breathe in his divine state, this habitual action helped him concentrate.
Then, he suddenly opened his eyes!
Deep within his pupils, the two dark golden vortexes suddenly began to spin rapidly, like a bottomless abyss into which a boulder had been thrown!
hum! ! !
A vast, powerful, and destructive purifying light erupted from him!
The dark golden light swept outwards in all directions at the speed of light, like a tsunami!
Wherever the divine light of annihilation passed, the ground was littered with blood, shattered energy fragments, spatial ripples from the clash of laws, and even lingering traces of each other's spiritual energy in the air.
Everything that the enemy could use to trace, locate, or reconstruct the battle was completely evaporated without leaving any residue the moment it came into contact with this light, returning to nothingness!
As Jemin unleashed a burst of Fiery Annihilation Divine Light to cleanse the area, in the blink of an eye, the region within a thousand miles was transformed into a "blank" space devoid of any remaining information from the past.
After thinking about it, Jemin felt it wasn't quite safe.
They simply went up into the sky and released another large number of shuttles.
Using his divine body, he spread light and imbued them with his aura. After a brief moment of sensing, Jemin was satisfied and commanded them to scatter in all directions, quickly flying off in all directions.
After doing all this, Jemin turned his head and took one last look in the direction where the black-robed wizard had disappeared.
Then, he didn't delay any longer.
With a slight lift of his foot, his figure transformed into a straight, dark golden beam of light, shooting off at the speed of light in a direction completely opposite to Augusta's!
On the battlefield, only a silent wasteland, cleansed and pristine, remained, as if no battle had ever taken place.
And on the distant horizon, the faint aura of wizards could be heard, rapidly approaching as they sensed the abnormal energy eruption in this area.
