Chapter 971: The Strength Of Light Magic
Light magic energy worked perfectly with the Lux spear, and it was an item that was originally from the Rygon religion to begin with. Safa's god eyes were showing her the
constant glow of energy surrounding Carl and into the weapon, and she wasn't sure what they could do at this point.
"Don't worry," Simyon said. "We're going to get your weapon back."
Safa looked around; she could see Liam was standing ready to go again, and then there was Anna-all of them were ready to go ahead.
"There's only one real way we can get him," Anna said. "And get to Charlotte."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
With a smile on his face, Carl lifted the orb in his hand, and the magic started to cause the ball to light up. It covered the whole area, and instead of staring brightly into the light they had all closed their eyes this time.
Regardless, they could all feel a strange tingling sensation, as if something had been taken from their body. When opening them they could see clearly, but there was no difference from before. Nothing else had been taken.
"I imagine that it's on some sort of timer, so he has to keep using it to take our powers away, but it's not going to matter!" Simyon shouted as he moved in front, and saw a beam of energy being fired from Carl's hands.
Simyon tensed his entire body, blocking the hit, and tried to push forward. He continued to, until they had reached a certain distance and Carl had opted to use the spear instead. Magic swirled in the air and surrounded the entire spear, spinning.
Safa, seeing this, was amazed; she had never thought to use the light magic in this way, to make it a more destructive force of nature, but she didn't have time to be in awe for long as she dashed to the side.
She came right from behind Simyon, using his strong body to block the attack. The man seeing this moved his palm and started to fire away as she leapt in the air avoiding the hit, and even diving down onto the ground so the energy had hit one of the bodies instead.
Her face and clothes were covered in blood from the ground, but it didn't matter to her; they needed to take down this person to get rid of this target.
For a moment, while Carl's focus was distracted not caring for her own hands, Anna had grabbed onto the spear itself. The swirling magic was twisting and tearing off parts of her skin, while the nanobots in her body were doing their best to repair its body in time.
'It was quite easy to notice although this person holds a lot of power they're not used to fighting. That's probably what happens when someone just becomes a member of the church for a long time and does nothing but fighting and captures their targets instead, anyway it's all up to you now!' Anna thought.
Liam had prepared himself and threw several of his swords as hard as he could, even without Qi he had added strength from his own unique body substance. As the swords came out of his hands they hit the foot of Carl, stabbing right through them.
Liam continued again and again, and eventually had reached Carl's body, and swung his swords slashing at him left and right. The cuts weren't deep, as Liam could feel some type of invisible force dragging his swords, weakening them before they hit Carl, but it didn't matter; he needed to continue swinging them and that he did.
Swing after swing, cut after cut, Carl's body was becoming bloody, but as quickly as it was becoming bloody, the cuts were healing. There were next to no cuts on his wounds, and when Carl had even realized this, he had just let out a fit of laughter.
"Haha, you can't hurt me, you can't!" Carl claimed. "With both of these items in my hands I am invincible, there isn't a single person that can stop me!"
Right after making that claim, something strange happened where Charlotte was. The magic formation that was on the ground beneath her, it started to light up brightly and consumed all of her body.
Charlotte felt a large pain from her head, that forced her head to be lifted into the air. Deafening screams rang out through the room. The screams so loud that everyone was just looking at Charlotte wondering what was going to happen.
'The energy I feel now, it's different, this isn't Light magic? Is it Qi? No, it almost feels like it's something else.'
Carl knew what was up, he had seen it multiple times before; he was a little worried at first that it didn't work because there weren't enough sacrifices, but he had a feeling that the power of a mage would be able to suck one of those in, one of those greedy people from above.
Little did they know that it was all a trap.
"This is perfect, this is perfect!" Carl said. "And with all of you, maybe I can all use you as hosts as well. Our Sun God will be the strongest being there is. And I will be right there under him."
"Why does this guy care about someone else?" Liam asked.
As Anna had long let go of the spear and had backed up, a little frightened at what was about to happen.
"These people, they have lost all reason a long time ago, there's no worrying about that, we just have to put a stop to him."
Anna was deeply concerned about Charlotte, but at this rate all of them would lose their lives. When she turned her head to look at Charlotte she was surprised to see that someone else was standing there as well though.
"Safa... what is she doing?" Anna thought.
Safa, in all of the focus, in all of the distraction had crawled through the ground and had reached Charlotte.
"With this energy, there's a chance... I think, I might be able to control it!" Safa claimed as she stepped into the magic circle formation, and a tingling sensation was felt through her entire
body.
