Chapter 1705: Chapter 977 The True Face of the Mysterious Necromancer Chapter 1705: Chapter 977 The True Face of the Mysterious Necromancer Beneath the ghastly white moon shrouded in blood fog, a mysterious figure wearing a brown hooded cap suddenly appeared directly opposite Leo Ray.
Without any warning, just as Leo Ray had felt an overwhelming sense of danger rushing toward him, numerous sharp, deathly white bone spears, enveloped in death energy, were already whistling toward him with a chilling gust of wind.
âIs that the mysterious Tier 5 Necromancer? How did this fellow suddenly appear here?â
Leo Ray had no time to think further; he instantly activated the Short Distance Teleportation Scroll he had prepared in his hand.
Facing an opponent of unclear strength, Leo Ray naturally would not entangle with them for even a second. If there were other enemy top combat powers lurking nearby, the outcome would be predictable.
Along with a flash of pale grey magical light, just as a lance of bone spears, bursting with cold light, approached his nose, he vanished from the spot in an instant.
But what Leo Ray did not expect was that the opponentâs strength far exceeded his imagination.
âTo have actually evaded my attack? Achieving such a reflex with Fourth Order Strength is commendable.â
The Tier 5 Necromancerâs gaze remained steady, focused on the patchy ground now studded with bone spears.
At that moment, the dust and rubble raised by the dense bone spears entering the ground were still drifting through the air.
âUsing a short-range teleportation will inevitably cause a slight fluctuation in elemental power, which is enough for me to pinpoint your position in advance.â
The Tier 5 Necromancerâs gaze sharpened as he casually waved his brown magic robes with a backhand motion.
A hundred meters away, once again, an array of deathly white bone spears instantly took shape â exactly where Leo Ray had just appeared.
âSo fast?â
Leo Ray clearly did not expect the enemyâs attack to be this swift. Just as he was about to pull out a new Magical Scroll, the bone spears already followed like a shadow.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Accompanied by the piercing sound of the bone spears shooting through the air, a protective spell on Leo Ray capable of withstanding a Tier 5 attack, Star Protection, was triggered instantaneously, and a semi-transparent barrier appeared around him.
Under the impregnable barrierâs protection, the multitude of bone spears shot toward him at the forefront shattered into a rain of bone fragments.
Meanwhile, Leo Ray took the opportunity to flee once more, disappearing under the cover of the scattering bone debris.
âAs expected of the renowned Otherworldly Lord who has escaped my attack twice.â
A hint of surprise flickered in the mysterious Necromancerâs eyes, but it was quickly overshadowed by coldness. âLet me inform you that no one has ever evaded my attack thrice!â
The Necromancer, astonished in his heart, was about to launch another attack but was interrupted by a barrage of light arrows hurtling toward him.
âWhoever you are, do not think of harming him again!â
Ariel Watsonâs urgent and resolute voice rang out.
Because the previous assault had taken place in the blink of an eye, by the time Ariel Watson had reacted,
Leveraging the Power of Divine Grace, which enhanced his reflexes, Leo Ray had already dodged the Necromancerâs chilling bone spear twice.
Along with Ariel Watsonâs words, the voices of Linda, Kane, Elder Evan, Thomas, and other elders echoed urgently and resolutely, âIf you wish to harm Lord (Mr. Lane), youâll have to get past us first!â
In an instant, Linda and several physical combat elders did not hesitate at all and charged fiercely toward the mysterious Necromancer with swords blazing.
Meanwhile, Ariel Watson and several other magic-wielding elders had already taken to the air, launching their swiftest magical attacks at the Necromancer.
Among them, Ariel Watson and Linda, in particular, wore expressions of urgent resolve, as if they couldnât wait to engage directly with the Necromancer to ensure Leo Rayâs safety.
âMy dear sirs and madams, my target is only Mr. Lane from another realm. I have no intention of harming others, so please be quiet.â
In the face of attacks from Ariel Watson and the others, the Necromancer waved a hand with ease, and walls of solid bone rose from the earth, blocking all their advances.
At the same time, the Necromancerâs piercing gaze never left the spot where Leo Ray had disappeared for the second time, swiftly locating where he reappeared.
âThe time has come for an end, Person from Another World.â
This time, the Necromancer did not continue his attack with bone spears; he merely stood there impassively.
âUghâŠâ
A hundred meters away, continuous high-frequency teleportation left Leo Ray feeling dizzy, but just as he was mustering up his spirit,
An enormous, deathly creature emitting an aura of death energy, stealthily appeared behind him.
Before a newly-reappeared Leo Ray could comprehend what was happening, a gigantic bone claw, immense yet swift as the wind, was already hurtling toward his back.
âNo!â
Seeing this, Ariel Watsonâs eyes, wide with shock, overflowed with tears, yet she was completely helpless. At this distance, she didnât have time to shield Leo Ray!
Hearing Ariel Watsonâs cry and sensing something amiss behind him, Leo Ray looked back just in time to see a colossal white bone claw lunging at him.
At that moment, Leo Ray could even see the minuscule cracks in the claw and surrounding black death aura, but it was too late to dodge or pull out a new magic scroll.
At this critical juncture, something bizarre occurred.
Just as the mammoth bone claw neared Leo Rayâs nostrils, about to rip through flesh, it suddenly halted midway in the air, unmoving as if it had malfunctioned.
