At this time, Victor was at the bottom of the volcano, in a sealed space.
He put his hands in his pockets and his windbreaker fluttered in the heat.
A sentence automatically flashed through my mind.
That year, I put my hands in my pockets and had no idea what an opponent was.
A shocking pillar of fire came towards him, but Victor watched it calmly, and a curtain instantly rose from the magic circle beneath his feet, easily blocking the attack.
With the help of countless magic arrays, he teleported and waves covered the sky.
In his eyes, the huge boss was just a large and durable toy.
Guldun gradually raised his body, and he was carrying a small mountain on his back.
Lava gushed out from the body, sweeping away sand and gravel.
The sand and gravel penetrated his body, but it seemed as if they hit a curtain of water.
A stream of water fell, and the original Victor disappeared.
[Second-level magic: Water Phantom]
The next second, the real Victor appeared behind the beast, with a tidal spear made of water condensed in his hand and stabbed at Guldun's butt.
Because of the elemental restraint, Guldun felt the damage from the water gun very strongly.
It was in pain and furious, and lava spewed towards Victor again.
Seeing that Guldun's output was getting more and more fierce, Victor easily avoided those fatal attacks with his invincibility of dodging.
As soon as Guldun raised his hand, Victor knew what was going on.
Guldun thrust both of his palms into the ground, and a pillar of fire shot up into the sky and erupted under Victor's feet.
Victor waved his hand subconsciously.
[Second-level magic: Water Curtain]
The water-blue film that was formed instantly resisted the attack of the fire column.
Guldun narrowed his eyes as he watched Victor handling the situation with ease. He felt extremely aggrieved and let out a long howl to the sky, expressing his resentment.
After a long battle, Victor was still as relaxed as at the beginning.
However, Guldun's health volume only dropped by a few tenths.
When Vega saw that Victor could handle it so easily, he immediately fell into self-reflection.
Can he fight against Disaster on equal terms? Is this guy really a human being?
Unable to figure it out, it simply gave up thinking and shouted at Victor:
"Hey, it's been hours! Are you going to keep fighting?!"
When Victor heard Vega say this, he thought about it for a moment.
When he first saw Guldun in the game, he and the player coalition fought it for three days and three nights.
Then...
"Then let's fight for three more days."
Victor was ready to fight. He was looking forward to this exciting battle.
…
[Second-level magic: Galvis's Ice Storm]
[Second-level magic: Death ritual]
[Second-level magic: Still water]
…
Countless moves were used at Victor's fingertips, and magic circles flashed in the air one after another, like stars under dark clouds.
Vega looked at Victor casting spells and was completely shocked in the air.
"Damn it, this guy is such a pervert."
"This is not the strength of a third-level mage."
Countless wave attacks of different colors continued to wear down the soaring monster.
The surrounding rocks were also crushed by the strong momentum and disappeared.
When Guldun was attacked by so many spells, it felt like he was being hit by sharp thorns. Although it was not fatal, it was very painful.
It swung its tail violently, and the narrow crater was cut in half.
It fell into the magma with a loud bang, splashing thousands of feet high.
Victor stepped on the black formation and instantly disappeared into the black fog.
He appeared again on the intact crater on the other side, seized the gap in the attack and continued to attack.
Guldun bared his fangs, and a fireball as bright as the sun appeared in his throat, ready to be launched.
boom!
A fireball suddenly burst out and attacked the mountain nearby.
The rocks were cracked and smoke and dust rose into the sky.
Victor held up a magic circle and exchanged positions with the icy shell buried not far away.
The icy body took the ball of magic that was aimed at his face, turned into steam, and disappeared into the air.
[Second-level magic, ice substitute]
The rest of his long-distance teleports were on cooldown, and Victor had accurately grasped the maximum dodge distance of his ice substitute.
The sand and gravel flew up and gently brushed his clothes.
He didn't take any damage, and the boss's skills just barely missed him.
Victor put his hands together, and a huge door with white light appeared behind him.
[Level 3 Summoning: White Spirit's Evil Words]
Following Victor's order, the huge white marble door behind him slowly opened.
The gushing mist instantly swept across the entire volcano.
Vega's eyes were instantly obscured by white mist, and he shouted at the top of his voice: "Victor! Victor! I'm still here! Don't let the things you summon attack me!"
With Vega's knowledge, he certainly knew what Victor summoned.
White Spirit's Evil Words and could not distinguish between friend and foe.
Guldun was shrouded in the white mist and kept waving his huge claws to try to push the mist away.
But the white mist was entangled around it like a spider web, and it couldn't be torn apart no matter how hard it tried.
A pair of thin and pale arms, as if withered, slowly stretched out and grabbed towards Guldun.
Guldun's head was grabbed by both hands and was pulled towards the door.
But because the Lava Demon was too heavy, no matter how White Spirit pulled, it was unmoved.
Then the White Gate began to crumble.
The first thing that came out ofWhite Spirit's body was a head, or something that looked like a head.
Seven eyes covered a circle on his head, and every glance made Guledon feel dizzy.
Its body was still being pulled out, and its lower body was like three sky-covering pythons entwined together, covering the lava under the volcano.
It broke through the skin at the back of its neck, and a third arm suddenly appeared.
The spine was pulled out of the body, turned into a sharp blade, and split open Guledun's rock armor.
When Victor saw the white door collapse, he could only hold his forehead and sigh.
"This guy is still so reckless."
The summoned creature is not as powerful as him, its only advantage is that it can take more beatings than him.
Victor was able to break away from the fight with White Spirit and cast dozens of weakening spells on the monster again, continuing to prepare for the next round of magic.
Victor took out some materials from his backpack, made some magic props on the spot, and threw them at the BOSS.
The effect is minimal.
"It's better than nothing."
Vega looked at him and comforted himself.
Soon, Gulerton's health bar was reduced to about 10%.
The flames in Guldun's eyes became brighter, and the lava on his body quickly flowed away.
The space between its hands was tightly wrapped by a burst of fierce flames, and rock spikes gradually formed at its tail.
Victor's eyes lit up and he felt a heat in his heart.
He regained the fighting feeling he once had.
The excitement filled his brain with blood.
In this form, Guldun's defense is greatly increased, and his skills are also greatly strengthened.
This is the real reason why it is called the Crucible.
The flames turned into magma, and the magma all over the ground left Victor with nowhere to stand.
White Spirit also screamed in pain from the enhanced environment.
"Since there is no place for me to stay, I will make one myself."
Victor said this and drew a neat square in the air.
With a snap of his fingers, a piece of water vapor turned into an extremely dense ice block suspended in the air.
The battle continued, and Victor stood on the ice and continued to cast spells.
But outside, Mount Vesuvius was in an astonishing state.
A group of knights had already gone to the town at the foot of the mountain to evacuate the people. Only Gwen and a few knights stayed and retreated to the middle of the mountain, keeping an eye on the volcano to see if there were any special abnormalities.
Just as Gwen's intuition had predicted, it really happened.
They raised their heads and stared at the gradually reddening surface of the volcano. Streams of water vapor rose from the crater, just like the outer shell falling off to reveal the true color inside.
"Knight Commander, this crater is as hot as an iron plate!"
A knight following her warned.
Gwen's eyes were solemn, and she turned around to inform several knights:
"Quick! Report to the capital immediately! Request reinforcements!"
The knights nodded and ran towards the town to contact the royal capital with the magic crystal.
...
Duke's residence.
Erica was in her room, holding a bottle of blue potion, sitting on the bed with a dull look in her eyes.
She felt that all the knowledge she had learned in her life was in vain.
If it were before, she would feel that spending so much money to buy just a few bottles of potion would be a loss.
"Just this bottle of potion, can it be sold for one thousand geos?"
But now she was thinking:
"This thing only costs one thousand Geo?"
She stared at the bottle of potion in her hand in a daze, her mind in a mess.
The Duke was away on business and had not yet returned home, but she could not wait to tell her father about her discovery.
"My Lord Duke, do you need me to inform the young lady that you are back?"
When she heard the servants talking outside the door, she rushed out like an excited deer.
As a result, Duke Levi's answer left her a little overwhelmed.
"No, tell her I'm going on a long trip and won't be back for a few days."
Erica, who was standing at the door, heard the whole thing and stopped.
Duke Levi smiled bitterly when he saw that his beloved daughter had heard it.
"Erica, the emperor has issued a mission and needs urgent support."
She was so confused that she couldn't help asking the Duke:
"Father, you are obviously the Duke, why do you have to go there in person?"
Duke Levi called her forward, and Erica walked over obediently.
He touched Erica's head and explained gently:
"My dear daughter, this is no small matter. All the third-level mages in the capital must go, and the second-level mages will naturally be in the queue."
"Because you are younger, you will not be summoned by the royal family."
Erica suddenly remembered Victor who was on a mission a few days ago.
He is also a third-level mage.
Now his father has also been summoned, are they going to the same place?
"What on earth happened there? Why do they need so many mages?"
Erica asked the question in her mind, and before the Duke could continue to explain, she rushed to say:
"I want to go too!"
Hearing Erica say this, Duke Levi suddenly became much more serious and immediately refused.
"No, you're still young, and you still have to go to school."
"I am not a child anymore. I am now a second-level mage. If all the second- and third-level mages in the capital are leaving, the academy will naturally be no exception. Should I go find the dean to teach me personally?"
She knew that the dean would not leave the capital easily, because he was the only fourth-level holy mage in the capital and needed to stay in the capital in person to deter the criminals hiding in the dark.
As for the others, Erica was arrogant and confident that no one in the academy could teach her except Victor.
"Even if you say so..."
The Duke thought carefully for a moment and hesitated.
As Erica said, she is not young anymore.
She is seventeen years old and will become an adult next year.
He couldn't keep Erica protected in his hands forever, otherwise she would always be a fledgling.
Erica has her own dreams, so when necessary, he has to let Erica go.
I can't let my excessive fatherly love break my daughter's proud wings.
"Okay, Erica, I allow you to come with me."
"The place we are going to is Mount Vesuvius. The Royal Knights have sent out a signal for help."
"To be precise, Vesuvius might be about to erupt."
