At the critical moment, Noland Lee's thinking was as rapid as lightning.
A blueprint for the spell rapidly coalesced in his mind.
The ghastly bone knife stabbed out from the shadows, aimed straight at his chest.
The tip of the knife penetrated his uniform, sliced open his armored clothing, and was about to stab into Noland's chest.
At that moment, the blueprint of the spell in Noland's mind took shape, an invisible wave of energy radiated from him.
This energy drilled into the bone knife, travelled along the blade, the handle, and flowed into the hands of its wielder.
The sharp bone knife abruptly paused, two seconds later, the bone knife slowly retracted, abandoning its prey.
Noland let out a long sigh of relief, feeling a bit of glee at having narrowly escaped death.
"Phew~ Thank god I'm skilled in drafting spell blueprints. I released the spell I learned the day before yesterday in just 0.1 seconds."
Several lines of text surfaced in his mind.
