Chapter 404 [Bonus ] Part 20: Mystic Ruins
Ting!
The next moment, I felt a sharp pain in my head. I'm feeling, consciousness slipping away slowly. "What the ?" I cursed in my heart.
If I lose consciousness, it would be all over.
I bit my tongue to stay focused.
Eva, who saw the scene on the other hand wanted to help Vincent. She immediately cast her magic in assistance.
Martha's face turned dark. All of her magic spells are related to mind magic. She can't take physical attacks right now.
Eva's water magic spell caused her to retreat even more backward.
Using the opportunity, Eva called out.
"Vincent?"
I clutched my head to stop the splitting headache. But I can vaguely hear someone calling my name.
I tried to open my eyes in response. But unfortunately, I'm feeling disoriented. This was the work level-5 magic spell.
Other than me none one has clue that the enemy is using mind magic.
Meanwhile, Lara White again turned the hostile wizards into ice sculptures. Seeing that Don is struggling to survive, she cast several ice spikes in support.
Swish~
One of the male wizards was caught off guard by the attack. The ice spikes froze his leg. Using the opportunity, Don retaliated back by attacking the remaining wizard.
Martha Bell steps back safely from the water magic. When she notices the condition of her subordinates. Her face turned even ugly.
All of them are level-4 wizards. Then how could be? She saw the difference in power level is high.
One of her major weaknesses is physical attacks. She doesn't want them to team up together. Then without wasting her time she cast another mind magic on Eva.
"Corrupt thoughts," She said.
This is another vicious evil spell. When the magic spell lands on Eva. She got immediately affected. She was defenseless against the mind-related magic.
Argh!
Right after she suffered the same pain as Vincent. The splitting headache caused her to scream.
Which immediately attracted the attention of Lara White.
"What's wrong?" She uttered as she turned in toward the opposite direction. Where she saw the condition of Vincent and Eva.
Her face filled with shock. She saw there is some distance between the enemy and her friends. But there was no sign of any spell casting.
Then sudden realization struck her mind.
"Mind magic?" She uttered in disbelief. How rare is it to come across a mind magic user? And the enemy seems to be strong as well.
"Don, the enemy is a mind magic user. Take care of those two. I'll stop her," After saying that Lara decided to cast a long-range spell.
She knows it's deadly to engage mind wizards in close combat.
She is charging toward the opponent while releasing several ice spikes at her.
The sudden intrusion of Lara causes Martha to remain in back foot.
Swish~
She quickly evades the ice spikes one by one.
In the meantime, Don arrives in front of Eva to save her. Because she seems much worse than Vincent. Her attributes were low as well.
So she got severely affected by corrupt thoughts. When Don got closer to support, she cast water bullets to attack instead.
This sudden situation turned even more serious.
Lara White saw the scene and understood the effects of mind magic.
"He...He...He..."
"It won't be easy to save her," Martha Bell let out hysterical laughter in frustration.
Lara's eyes turned cold. She didn't even doubt her words. Because after seeing the state of Vincent. She realizes how powerful the enemy's magic was.
She needs to proceed with caution. Suddenly something comes to her mind. As long as Vincent regains some clarity. The fight would be over in seconds.
Then she rushes back to Vincent who was clutching his head.
A few seconds later,
"Vincent?"
I heard someone calling my name again. Buy I'm unable to focus because of the dizziness and pain. My back was drenched in sweat.
I was never pushed into this helpless state before.
"Vincent Carey?"
I heard my name again. But this time I recognized the voice. It was the voice of the snow queen. A beautiful face of Lara flashes in my memory.
The next moment, I felt something in my mind. It's a potion bottle.
"Drink it"
The words reached my ears again. I quickly thought she must be helping right now. Then without showing hesitation. I drank the potion liquid.
Meanwhile, Martha realized she was defeated. There was no point in engaging in the fight anymore. Even though she is a level-5 wizard, she knows her capability.
The woman with ice type made her feel the danger to some extent.
At the same time, I felt the splitting headache was reduced to half and I regained my clarity in thoughts.
When I opened my eyes. I saw Lara White standing in front of me.
"Thanks," I said before turning towards Eva. Seeing that she is also drinking the liquid potion. A hint of relief flashes in my eyes.
"That was dangerous," I said in my heart.
"Where is she?" I asked.
Lara White pointed her fingers in the western direction. Where Martha Bell is fleeing in hurry.
She is using the power of a level-5 wizard. It's difficult to catch her. It's not that I'm without cards. I don't want to expose the Gregor Mansion right now.
"Do you want to catch her?" Lara asked.
I shook my head in denial and replied, "She is a level-5 wizard."
A trace of surprise flashes in Lara's eyes. She had guessed it before. But seeing Vincent confirming it. She felt good about not engaging the enemy in close combat.
I saw Lara's expression before turning towards Eva.
"How is she doing?" I asked to Don.
"She fainted," Don replied.
Eva lost consciousness after drinking the potion. Which means her mind is healing right now.
"Mind wizard," I said in a cold tone. I made a wrong decision. I should have attacked her right away after seeing her status panel.
I underestimated the power of her mind spell. Next time, if I meet her it would be her last day.
