Chapter 663: Chapter D242: Standing Proud

The fists of the two Heroes on either side were inches away, their sonic booms tearing through the air, deafening.

Yet, the Elder Brother neither dodged nor avoided them, merely gripping his sword staff tightly with a cold expression.

With the activation of scrolls and items, a field of resistance spread out but failed to stop the girls’ iron fists, which broke through after a brief stalemate, delivering an unforgiving violent blow upon the young man.

However, amid the teeth-clenching sound of shattering, a second invisible shield appeared from thin air, barely withstanding the impact that could pierce through city walls.

The Elder Brother’s fingers under his robe turned white at the joints, his lips bloodless; clearly, maintaining this shield was not without cost.

[Hero deals (1447-721)*0.7=508 points of damage to Elder Brother]

[Elder Brother takes 508-70 (Armor)=438 points of damage, Wisdom Shield: 492-438=54]

Though the attack was temporarily blocked, the shield’s status was already on the brink of collapse. The Hero only needed to punch once more to send his kin into Huangquan.

Faced with the threat inches away, the corner of Elder Brother’s mouth twisted into a mocking smile, his tone calm and unruffled:

“Still the same, just brute force.”

The next moment, under the radiance released by the Magic Scroll, the winds and clouds shattered by the Hero returned with a vengeance.

Dozens of Thunder Spears poured down, hundreds of Wind Blades spun, the roaring magic surged like a flood onto the Hero’s body, blasting them dozens of meters away.

[Elder Brother deals 635 points of damage to the Hero]

[Hero takes 635-76 (Armor)=559 points of damage, Beast Spirit Magic Power: 15664, Star Blessing: 8491]

Note: Twin + Lonely consumption *3.5, Innate Armor Sacrifice after/2, Equipment Armor Twin/2

[Hero activates skill: Swallowing Filth and Purifying God]

D6=d6(2)=2

[Elder Brother activates skill: High Wind Chanting]

2d133+113+30+600=d133(49)+d133(111)+743=903

Under the magical counterattack of Elder Brother, the Heroines landed in a disheveled state.

The bricks of the training ground cracked and shattered under the massive impact, dust flying everywhere.

But their bodies were instantly replenished with Magic Power, the abrasions on them vanished in a blink, and the two girls excitedly lifted their heads, lightly biting their silver teeth, savoring the Magic Power that belonged to Elder Brother.

[Hero performs Agility counterattack (Gale Power fixed to max=319, gain bonus of the difference)]

D189=d189(175)=175

[Due to the effect of Sealing Cloud Sword Staff, the Hero is subjected to —— imprisonment (weakens the next attack)]

D132=d132(99)=99

“Truly troublesome guys… Is advanced magic still too weak?”

Elder Brother gently exhaled, calming his chaotic breathing, his gaze as sharp as a hawk, watching the twin Heroes opposite.

He knew, Beast Spirit Mage was not originally an excellent profession talent.

But the Hero standing in front of him now was equivalent to possessing both human profession strength and fantasy species’ Elemental Body.

Even though this status did not have low Magic Power consumption, the number of humans who could survive until she exhausted her Magic Power was very few.

“Legendary Magic… It’s hard to grasp the timing of the chant.”

Unless he could, like their father, use a higher-order magic to break her transformation, attrition battles brought him no advantage.

“However, if I set array patterns of that level here, she probably won’t come over, prophecy is such a hassle.” Elder Brother shook his head slightly.

“I don’t know what you’re muttering, Brother, but if you don’t attack, we’re coming over!”

The Hero’s voice, laced with a teasing smile, came from the other side, interrupting his thoughts.

[Elder Brother’s next action]

1-4. Attack

5-8. Continue chanting

9. Recovery Technique

10. Great Success/Great Failure

D10=d10(2)=2

Hearing the girls’ shout, the young man was silent for a moment, then straightened his sword forward.

“——As you wish.”

The next instant, the images of the three clashed once more.

Rime, Thunder, Hurricane, Radiance, the explosive Magic Power and magic interwove into brilliant colors, the clash of sword and fist creating thunderous beats.

The young man’s sword staff swung like the wind, magic orbs followed its movement like limbs, transforming into torrents of destruction surging forth.

And the two girls who relentlessly pursued him, one shrouded in holy Radiance, the other releasing frigid Magic Power, coordinated impeccably to shatter the torrent heading toward them, constantly closing on the young man.

If not for the secretive power shrouding this training ground, the commotion here might have already attracted the entire city’s attention, as it did the last time the Hero battled with their father.

[Hero activates skill: Sacrifice (Star guaranteed minimum 1/2)]

4d68+268+4d162+648+d35+35+45=(52)+(7)+(61)+(33)+(119)+(43)+(50)+(46)+d35(1)+996=1408

[Elder Brother activates skill: Arcane Cloud Blade, Extreme Thousand Layers Array – Chain Four]

Note: Ritual *1, High-tier *3, guaranteed minimum 330, chain +254

D82+98+130+7d110+584=d82(41)+(100)+(107)+(99)+(69)+(80)+(105)+(53)+812=1466

If speed is not enough, then increase precision.

If strength is insufficient, then aim for weak points.

The sword staff kept swinging, the robe flapped in the encirclement of the girls, yet the magic released by the young man became more concentrated, the sword slashes becoming narrower but sharper.

Fighting one against two, or rather one against three, the young man was not at a disadvantage at all, the light of the sword and magic weaving a magnificent symphony, each note’s leap adding a scar to the Hero’s body.

Constant stinging pain came from the Hero’s body, her head throbbed faintly, nerves twitched with a burning sensation.

But the suppressed Hero’s smile did not fade from her face.

Unlike before when they ignored each other, nor like the first clash when they misunderstood and erred.

Indeed, just as he said, the Elder Brother was now acknowledging her, fighting with her with all his might!

“——I have always been quite envious of you, Elder Brother!”

The Hero shouted, smashing an emerging Rock Spear underfoot with a punch, only to have her feet engulfed by the suddenly liquefied ground,
