Wisp of fiery energy gathered from the depth of the circle like a fog, and merged with the flames.
"Whoosh!"
It was like propane to flames. The previous spark immediately roared to life like a raging fire!
At this moment arcane structure began appearing within the flames as the orange fire started to take shape, forming three blazing arrows the size of an adult's forearm!
The three arrow-shaped flames ignited the air and scorched the wind as Gillard's palm slapped forward!
The fire arrows accelerated with speed even faster than a bullet's and tore through the air as they slammed pierced into Jason!
Simultaneously, Jason's enchanted glove glowed and in that instant, the air before him warped as a magical energy brimmed from his gloved fingers.
A magical circle appeared and the flaming arrows engulfed him.
"BOOM!"
A thin film of green energy barrier suddenly appeared before Jason, as the first flame arrow collided with the barrier.
The energy barrier instantly dimmed as flames splashed around Jason.
The second flame arrow slammed into the barrier.
"BOOM!" "CRACK!"
The arcane wind barrier immediately cracked and without warning, the third flame arrows slammed into the cracked barrier, shattering it to pieces.
"BOOM!"
Intense flames splattered through the entire forest like magma, igniting the trees around Jason to flames.
The arcane fire arrow collided directly into the wind barrier, as the energy faded and its arcane structure threatened to collapse into pure mana.
The now faint arrow slammed into Jason, the force blasting him backward as he collided with a tree behind him.
However, he suddenly threw something from his left hand, waving it towards Gillard fiercely.
The four to five-meter distance was closed in the blink of an eye. The severely wounded Gillard was splayed on the ground, his mana exhausted and his body injured.
He wasn't able to respond to the object in time. With a loud whistling sound, ghostly green flames ignited with a screeching wail.
Gillard couldn't even make a sound before he was incinerated into dark-charred bones. The eerie green flames burned over his bones and soon extinguished, leaving nothing but a strange glow in the dark night.
Although it took a long time to describe, everything happened so fast that Tron could barely react!
"Kuh! Kuh!!" Jason violently coughed. The arrow had opened up a large hole in his body.
He was severely injured.
Jason grabbed at his robe and took out a bottle of concoction and opened it.
He pressed the smelly herbs against his injuries and then smiled bitterly as he faced Tron, "I never imagined that Gillard had actually managed to learn a Tier-2 spell. I nearly died due to my oversight."
As Jason spoke, he straightened himself. He glanced at the burnt corpse and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.
Dark purplish sparkles of light shined, glimmering in the dark. Jason's gaze instantly turned blazing hot but calmed down in the next moment.
"My words remain the same as before. We will divide the items on Gillard's body and then forget about what happened tonight. Of course, if fellow Acolyte Magi believes that you have the confidence to kill me here and take sole possession of these treasures for yourself, then you're free to try."
Tron's heart slammed rapidly against his chest. But he shook his head. "How could I bear to bother you? I am already more than satisfied with half of the loot."
Jason smiled and nodded. "I like honest and bold people! However, the thing is, it is difficult for me to move right now, so can I bother friend here to check Gillard's corpse and help us divide the treasures on him?"
Tron's eyes shone with greed. He locked his eyes on Jason and looked at him with doubt as he cautiously made his way over to Gillard's corpse.
Although his complexion was grim and earnest, it was completely different from his voice, because as he spoke, he did so with a slight shudder of excitement. "Jason, how did you know that Gillard has lots of magical treasures on him?"
One step. Two steps.
Jason's voice sounded out from behind, "Gillard's Arcana Cortex is a 1-star talent almost at the level of a servant."
"He was mediocre during the entry exam and at the bottom of the food chain and slowly meditated for all these months and yet two months ago he was reborn and suddenly activated 100% of his Arcana cortex in 20 days to become an Acolyte Magi. This is the most critical question."
Three steps. Four steps.
"Others think he had hidden his talents because he didn't want attention, but I don't believe that at all."
His voice carried a faint taunting undertone.
Five steps. Six steps.
With his back against the large tree, Jason's eyes turned ice cold. His gloves glowed as a magical circle appeared on his fingertips and contempt lined the corner of his lips!
At this moment, he suddenly pointed at Tron and immediately, the surrounding air surged as a large wind blade condensed and accelerated forwards in a frightening manner.
However, Tron suddenly staggered as if he had tripped on something as he tumbled, entirely moving out of Jason's aim.
"BOOM!!!"
Three entire trees were separated from their roots!
Tron didn't waste any time as he rolled sideways. He immediately grabbed a handful of sand and tossed it at Jason's eyes, temporarily blocking his vision!
"BOOM!"
A magical object was thrown out from the dust Tron had caused, and a 3-meter radius sea of greenish flames surged through the forest like a lava lake, reducing everything including the surrounding trees they touched to ashes!
He actually possesses another magical object!
"Fucking Slave!"
Jason cursed as he quickly wiped the dust from his bloodshot eyes and glared forward.
However, he wasn't met with his expectations but instead was met with greenish flames and not Tron writhing in pain and burnt to ashes.
His eyes widened. He didn't die? How did the slave flee so quickly?
Suddenly!
"Chi!"
