Chapter 112 Shadow Cat!
Buzz!
The air seemed to groan in despair!
The creature that emerged from the box defied all logic; its entire body was an ominous, dark red, as if congealed blood, its structure sometimes solid as a giant cat, and sometimes disintegrating like a flowing shadow.
Countless twisted, claw-less and tentacle-less limbs writhe along the edges of its outline, exuding a chilling aura of madness!
Its mere existence causes the surrounding space to constantly experience subtle cracks and distortions!
Lu Xiaobai's pupils contracted sharply, and the magic power in his icy blue right eye surged wildly at an unprecedented speed. The eerie pressure made it difficult for him to breathe.
Click!
The air in front of him shattered like glass, and an enormous staff appeared out of thin air!
The staff was entirely black and even taller than Lu Xiaobai himself.
The top of the staff is not a fixed structure, but a sharp, crescent-shaped metal semi-ring. Inside the semi-ring, two large gems, one red and one rainbow, rotate slowly like twin stars, radiating a breathtaking and powerful magic.
At the same time, the space in front of the Minister of Magic rippled silently, and a huge, heavy magic book, "The Magician's Files," appeared quietly. Its cover seemed to be made of some kind of black leather and inlaid with obscure silver-white runes. The pages moved without wind, rustling and emitting an unknown and mysterious glow.
The intelligence chief's eyes narrowed as he took control of the last remaining ice dragon.
The ice dragon let out a deep roar, its massive body coiling and contracting to protect the three of them in the center. Its crystal-clear body reflected a dangerous light, assuming the most solid defensive stance!
The three became one, their souls and magic resonating in perfect synchronization, forming a perfect triangular formation, ready for battle!
This contrasted sharply with the increasingly delighted smile on Aozaki Touko's face!
"Go ahead, have some fun with them!"
Aozaki Touko chuckled and snapped her fingers.
The next moment!
The dark red, indescribable thing—let's call it the "Shadow Cat" for now—vanished suddenly!
No, it didn't disappear; rather, its speed completely exceeded the limits of what the naked eye could perceive!
A distorted, dark red afterimage appeared simultaneously on the protective fence surrounding the entire oval arena!
It was racing wildly around the field at an unimaginable speed, the sharp, soul-tearing sound of it cutting through the air forming a continuous, ear-piercing shriek!
The sturdy fence was cracked open by the mere afterimage, as if cut by an invisible blade, creating deep pits!
Even among the remaining spectators in the stands, including a member of the Ten Elders like Feng Zhenghao, cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
Zhang Chulan subconsciously swallowed and leaned back slightly.
In his mind, this was not the speed or form of existence that a living being should have!
"Splitting into a single entity, completely coexisting!"
Lu Xiaobai murmured, and his icy blue right eye shone brightly!
At this moment, the connection between the souls of the three individuals transcended ordinary collaboration, reaching a kind of ultimate unity!
Their thoughts, senses, magical flow, and even their life state are completely synchronized!
Damage suffered by one person is shared equally among the three, and any benefit gained by one person is shared by all three!
Whether it's physical attacks, energy shocks, or the most bizarre mental curses, the three of them will share the burden and resolve them together!
They are no longer one main body with two clones, but a perfect "whole" with three bodies and three thought cores!
"Inherent Time Control - Five Times Speed!"
The Minister of Magic placed his hands on the grimoire and began to chant in a clear voice.
hum!
An invisible force field, mysterious and profound, instantly enveloped the three of them, forcibly accelerating the flow of time in the area they were in!
To outsiders, their movements suddenly became blurry and indistinct, so fast that they left afterimages, but to them, everything in the outside world seemed to slow down!
Finally, within the synchronized vision of those magical eyes, the movement trajectory of that rampant dark red phantom was clearly captured and analyzed!
"Stop it!"
The intelligence chief's eyes sharpened, and he controlled the coiled ice dragon to unleash a deafening roar.
The massive body, carrying a chilling aura that could crush everything, lunged at the dark red trail that had just passed directly in front of them!
Precise calculations, and the timing was impeccable!
however!
"Meow—!!!"
A piercing, extremely sharp scream that directly impacted the soul exploded!
The dark red shadow cat seemed to be enraged. Facing the ice dragon that pounced fiercely, it neither dodged nor avoided. Instead, it twisted its body strangely in the air, and countless twisted shadow claws instantly erupted!
*Sizzle!*
It felt like a hot knife slicing through cream, or like countless extremely sharp steel wires cutting through it in an instant!
The massive, solid ice dragon didn't even manage a single effective collision. Before anyone could react, the ice dragon was torn apart, cut, and pierced from head to tail by countless shimmering shadow claws, instantly exploding into a sky full of ice crystal powder!
"Now!"
Almost at the same instant the ice dragon shattered, the intelligence minister's roar echoed in the synchronized thoughts of the three!
[The Eye of Truth: Soul Interference! Mental Interference!]
At the same time, his right eye flashed with deep blue light, and two extremely condensed, invisible and intangible mental interference shockwaves shot towards the Shadow Cat, who had just completed the attack and whose figure had momentarily froze!
The Minister of Magic beside him completed his incantation simultaneously, and the grimoire flipped to a certain page with a clatter, on which a complex mental rune shone brightly!
"Sinking into Nightmare - Soul Blast!"
He thrust both hands forward with a sudden burst of force!
A hazy, twisted ripple, seemingly composed of countless wailing faces, struck Shadow Cat instantly, who was momentarily stunned by the mental shock from the Minister of Intelligence!
"Awooo—!"
The Shadow Cat let out a painful shriek, and the violent and chaotic aura around it suddenly weakened.
Those twisted, shadowy limbs seemed to have lost control and thrashed about wildly. Their massive bodies crashed to the ground as if struck by an invisible hammer, creating a shallow crater. They temporarily lost their ghostly speed and rolled and struggled in pain on the spot!
The opportunities you create are fleeting!
Lu Xiaobai had been waiting for this moment!
He gripped the massive, jet-black staff tightly with both hands, pouring all the boiling magic power in his body into it without reservation!
At the top of the staff, the crimson gem suddenly shone like a small sun!
The intensely concentrated, scorching destructive energy dimmed and distorted the surrounding light!
The intelligence chief's demonic eye remained firmly locked onto the struggling Shadow Cat, continuously exerting mental suppression to create the perfect environment for the main body to unleash its power!
Lu Xiaobai's eyes were icy as he locked onto the red-haired figure in the distance who was still smiling. He pointed his staff at Aozaki Touko and let out a roar that signaled the end!
Burn everything away—!
'
"Fire Dragon Slayer Magic, Dragon Slave!"
boom!!!!!!!!
A dark red, scorching torrent, more than three meters in diameter and beyond description, roared out from the ruby at the top of the staff, like the world-destroying breath spewed by an ancient dragon!
Wherever it passed, space twisted violently, and the ground was easily torn apart and melted, forming a bottomless chasm of scorching lava!
The terrifying heat made people in the distant stands feel their hair curly and their skin burning!
The beam of fire did not directly attack the struggling Shadow Cat, but instead, with an absolute destructive force that crushed everything, it instantly engulfed Aozaki Touko, who was standing in place.
And its momentum did not diminish, it slammed into the empty spectator stands behind her!
Rumble! ...
The deafening explosion swallowed up all other noises!
The sturdy concrete stands instantly vaporized and collapsed like paper under the devastating energy impact!
A blinding dark red light, mixed with flames and thick smoke from the explosion, shot into the sky, forming a small mushroom cloud!
The shockwave spread out in a ring, scattering the wreckage of seats further away like toys!
The entire back mountain of Longhu Mountain seemed to tremble under this earth-shattering blow!
