Chapter 854 -524: Fierce Battle!_2
Of course, Lis wasn’t some kind of masochist, enduring attacks here for no reason.
Lis also had the top-level specialty of [Advanced Wind Element Affinity], and also possessed [Extraordinary Domain·Storm]. Usually, manipulating wind elements to form corresponding spells was quite easy for him.
However, the moment Andrew appeared, the wind elements traveling through the air suddenly turned hostile towards Lis, as if they were rebellious soldiers.
Lis estimated that the domain Andrew broke through and ascended to the level of Legend must be related to the wind element.
Just when he came into contact with the tornado created by Andrew, Lis suddenly realized that the Extraordinary Domain he controlled had undergone a special change.
Lis now had a considerable number of Extraordinary Domains, far more than the quantity generally mastered by Golden Rank professionals.
Wisdom, Life, Storm, Thunder, Wave, Darkness, Blood, Decay—these domain powers combined, with [Extraordinary Domain·Wisdom] at the core, resisted the pressure of Andrew’s Legendary Domain, thereby reducing the burden on Lis.
Originally, that was the case, when suddenly, Lis noticed that the wind elements, which were originally very hostile towards him, began to ease up.
He felt that the relationship between himself and the wind elements had become much closer.
Although this feeling was faint, Lis could sense that the wind elements around his body were like children who couldn’t decide which side was their “boss!”
At the same time, at that moment, new prompts appeared on Lis’s system panel.
—————–
…
[You received a wind blade attack from Legendary Mage Andrew!]
[You took 10,564 points of damage!]
…
[Your Extraordinary Domain [Wisdom] has activated!]
[Insights drawn from Andrew’s Legendary Domain [Storm], your control over [Extraordinary Domain·Storm] has greatly improved!]
[Extraordinary Domain·Storm: Second Level·15% → Second Level·20%!]
…
[Your Extraordinary Domain [Wisdom] has activated!]
[Insights drawn from Andrew’s Legendary Domain [Storm], your control over [Extraordinary Domain·Storm] has greatly improved!]
[Extraordinary Domain·Storm: Second Level·20% → Second Level·26%!]
…
[You have gained new insights!]
[Extraordinary Domain·Wisdom: Second Level·5% → Second Level·8%!]
…
—————–
Damn!
It’s still got to be me!
Who would have thought the [Wisdom] domain could forcibly gain insights even from Legendary Domains!
This compatibility and capacity are off the charts!
Lis felt a burst of joy in his heart and also carefully experienced the new insights gained.
After obtaining the [Extraordinary Domain·Storm], to be honest, Lis hadn’t spent too much effort on it. After all, to him, the [Storm] domain, like [Wave] domain, had limited potential and wasn’t too suitable for him.
The [Storm] domain reaching Second Level·15% was partly due to accumulative improvements during spell research, and partly due to the subtle influence of the [Wisdom] domain.
However, this did not mean there was no significance in enhancing the [Storm] domain.
The stronger the [Storm] domain, the more control Lis had over the wind element power.
Like now, thanks to the [Wisdom] and [Storm] domains, even though Lis was inside Andrew’s tornado, he hadn’t noticed Lis’s position.
Because the wind elements near Lis had “rebelled”, not sending back any information to Andrew about Lis.
In theory, even if Lis’s [Storm] domain reached the third level, it wouldn’t be able to withstand the power of a Legendary Domain.
It must have been the influence of the [Wisdom] domain!
At that moment, Lis increasingly felt lucky for having requested insights into the [Wisdom] domain from the World Tree.
…
After some time had passed,
Andrew was still maintaining that powerful tornado; he had good patience.
Wasting a bit of time wasn’t an issue; he usually spent a whole day studying spells, so this wasn’t a big deal,
but for some reason, he had a feeling that something wasn’t quite right.
Shouldn’t be this way, right?
Just as Andrew was pondering the source of this odd feeling, a shadow suddenly emerged behind him.
The same sense of crisis as before suddenly sprang up in his mind, and Andrew turned around in disbelief.
He could only see Lis appearing behind him, and the gleaming dagger in his hand.
What?
Again?
How could he appear here without me sensing it?!
Andrew’s shock was understandable; although he couldn’t detect the fluctuation of shadow power, he had been using the power of wind elements to observe the forces around his body ever since he suffered a loss.
Even in a meditative state, such a close distance should not escape his perception!
Lis naturally understood the reason, as his system panel showed information with shimmering hints of colored light.
Extraordinary Domain·Storm (Third Level)
Extraordinary Domain·Wisdom (Second Level·23%)
The [Extraordinary Domain·Storm] had ascended to the Third Level, which was also the final stage of an Extraordinary Domain. Beyond that was completing the breakthrough and ascending to a Legendary Domain.
In other words, Lis now already had one of the conditions for advancing to a Legend.
Of course, Lis didn’t intend to complete his advancement using [Storm] as the core domain; he was still quite a bit short of the required 200 levels of experience points needed for the legendary advancement.
But at this moment, Lis wasn’t thinking about this.
Opportunities are rare, go when you can!
After all, he didn’t expect to kill a Legendary Mage, so he had to give it his all!
The dagger in Lis’s hand flashed lightning-fast towards Andrew’s white neck.
Assassin combat technique [Throat Cutting]!
Perhaps not yet recovered from the earlier shock, Andrew stood there dumbfounded, ready to embrace Lis’s attack.
Of course, with his speed, he couldn’t keep up with Lis’s attacks anyway.
The dagger in Lis’s hand instantly reached Andrew’s neck, and Andrew could even feel a touch of chill.
But Lis’s attack stopped there.
Clang!
The dagger in his hand felt as if it hit an indestructible wall, making a metal clashing sound.
Damn!
Lis understood; there was no way a Legendary Arcanist’s means would be that simple.
Even if their reaction speeds couldn’t keep up with their peers among assassins, they had sufficient means to protect themselves.
Otherwise, wouldn’t Legendary Mages be like lambs to the slaughter in front of Legendary Assassins?
Countless facts had proven that if two opponents of similar strength continued to fight, the victor would generally be the Legendary Mage.
Of course, a Legendary Assassin wouldn’t drag out a fight; their style is to hit and run.
Seeing the situation, Lis did not persist.
With a flick of his wrist, he slid the dagger down alongside Andrew’s neck’s protective layer.
Shh~
Lis’s dagger sliced through the sleeve on Andrew’s left arm, leaving a long bloody gash on his somewhat pale arm, with blood instantly gushing out.
“Damn it!”
“Get away from me!”
The pain in his left arm instantly stimulated Andrew’s nerves, causing an explosion of rage.
Terrifying magic power burst out from Andrew’s body in an instant; he no longer held back.
He was injured!
And it was done by a Golden Rank!
Andrew’s eyes flashed with a hint of red, staring intently at Lis in front of him.
Unlike before, now Lis was activating all his strength to counter Andrew’s burst of magic power, standing his ground.
He knew that if he retreated this time, he wouldn’t have another chance to get close to Andrew.
After suffering the same way twice, even an ordinary person couldn’t stand it, let alone a Legend!
No time to put the dagger back in his storage ring, Lis threw it aside, and a brilliantly shining golden long sword appeared in his hand.
Legendary Long Sword [Lis’s First Successfully Crafted Legendary Weapon]!
It’s a long name, but just like its name, it was the first Legendary Long Sword Lis forged through the [Spirit Rhinoceros Skillful Hand] specialty.
Seventh-tier Magic [Lis’s Blue Flame Demon Sword] (Enhanced Version)!
The long sword in Lis’s hand suddenly ignited with terrifying blue flames, slashing towards Andrew.
Is this… a personal arcane spell?
So this kid is indeed an Arcanist!
Andrew quickly realized, forcibly calming down, and constructed a magic shield in front of him.
Crack!
The blue flames of the long sword engulfed the newly created shield in an instant, breaking it apart after a brief moment.
Again!
Andrew’s pupils contracted, feeling a bit unwell in his heart.
