Chapter 321: The Old Witch

Translator: Kris_Liu Editor: Vermillion

Lucien started to draw the mysterious patterns surrounded by many circles using the blood and flesh from his broken arm. The patterns looked very creepy and it seemed that they contained the ultimate myths of the human body, the world, and the whole universe.

Carina stared at the magic circle that Lucien was building and murmured, “The three symbols represent spirit, consciousness and their carrier… They are at the same level, probably stands for the soul. The five symbols in the outer ring are the traditional symbols in the school of Necromancy, representing blood, bone, flesh, organ and life force… They might stand for the body. And the rest of the four symbols… sun, silver moon, stars, and darkness represent the world where an individual lives in. Is this a magic circle combining Necromancy and Astrology? And it seems that the different positions and lines have different functions…”

This was a very precious chance for Carina to learn about an advanced magic circle.

When he finished drawing the basic patterns of the necromantic magic circle named Miranda 12 Circles, Lucien turned the rest of the bone, blood, and flesh into some thick liquid. He used the liquid as ink and drew several special lines for connecting the twelve circles, surrounding the mysterious symbols.

Then he used the rest of the liquid as the magic conductor in the power passage of the magic circle. Using the flesh and blood from Adam, Lucien rebuilt the symbols standing for darkness, blood, and consciousness.

Lucien’s spiritual power lit up the lines in the magic circle, and it felt that the light was full of life force. Very quickly, the circles were all integrated together, and the light was suddenly restrained within the area of the magic circle.

The magic circle now looked more organized, and every part had connected to each other as if the magic circle was alive. From some angles, the magic circle looked like a three-dimensional structure.

Carina saw the magic circle as a piece of artwork.

At this time, Lucien said to her, “Carina, when the energy pool starts to boil, you use your spiritual power to activate the symbol representing darkness.”

Carina suddenly pulled her thoughts back.

Lucien repeated his words, and Carina hurriedly nodded with her flushed cheeks, “I will, Mr. Lucien.”

He nodded, as trusting Carina was his only option right now. He had not managed to learn simulacrum spells to use a duplicate.

He turned to the two knights, “Alva and Bullard, you two protect Carina. Don’t let anything distract her.”

“As you command, Mr. Lucien,” Alva and Bullard responded seriously.

Lucien nodded. Finally, he said to Adam, “Let’s go to the central section.”

“Yes!” Adam was very excited, as he had been waiting for this moment for several decades!

…

Bang! Bang!

Two steel golems fell onto the ground. Their limbs were still twitching.

Looking at the golems, Adam said to Lucien sincerely, “If I was all by myself here, it would be very difficult for me to finish even one golem because of the limited space. I have to say that you sorcerers are really powerful.”

“This is the power of knowledge,” Lucien answered briefly. He stared at the patterns of the magic circles on one of the golems and slightly shook his head, “Most things usually have their advantages and disadvantages. Without the magic circles, building a stronger layer of a metal shell for resisting magnetic field interference would be possible, but if that was the case, on the other hand, pure steel could not handle the power of a grand knight or the elemental spells. The solution could only be provided by the next evolvement of knowledge.”

Adam did not really understand Lucien’s words. He shrugged his shoulders and said, “You probably want to crack the protection magic circle first. The old witch might come back at any time.”

The magic circle at the center of the tower was way more complicated than the one in the energy core. Fortunately, it still followed the mechanism of most senior-rank magic circles. It took Lucien about an hour and a half to crack it.

This an hour and a half were beyond torturing to the prison breakers. Even Adam, the determined level five grand knight, could not avoid walking back and forth, feeling extremely anxious.

Lucien knew that Carina, Alva, and Bullard might also have reached their limit. At this time, even a common flesh golem could break their nerves.

However, because they were too far away from each other, Lucien could not contact them using Telepathic Bond. He had to trust them.

Seeing that Lucien opened the black gate, Adam released a long sigh and said, “This is the longest half an hour in my whole life. We’re lucky that the old witch hasn’t come back.”

“Let’s go. This isn’t the end.” Lucien stepped on the stairs behind the gate.

Having no idea what was waiting for them in the front, and also when the old witch would come back, Lucien too felt very nervous and anxious.

Adam’s body was again covered by the dark mist, and he carefully followed Lucien to the stairs.

Suddenly, the stairs started to wriggle!

The gray wall and stairs quickly became as red as blood and flesh and they started to produce white and green acid. As soon as the acid touched the absorbing wall protecting Lucien, it made very disturbing sizzling noises.

Adam, although having turned himself into part of the darkness, was still slightly hurt by the acid, which was totally out of his expectation.

“Damn it!” swore Adam, “The acid shouldn’t be able to hurt me!”

Lucien answered him through the telepathic bond, “It’s the witch’s special spell, not some common acid! It can corrode and digest one’s soul!”

As he was saying, Lucien started to run as fast as he could. There was no way to deactivate the magic circle. Every time the old witch came back, the magic circle would work, but she must be always prepared for this.

This was one of the most effective ways for many sorcerers to protect the places that were important to them. Fortunately, both Lucien and Adam did not lower their guards, instead, they had equipped themselves with all kinds of protections very well.

The red stairs were wriggling like crazy, like a human being’s intestine digesting food.

Struggling, Lucien and Adam climbed toward the way out crazily.

Like an open mouth, close to the exit, there were lips and teeth. However, right now the mouth was closing, as if there was a time limit for one to leave this place!

Using the spell Speed, Lucien and Adam moved very fast. The exit was closer and closer to them!

However, at this time, the absorbing wall had reached its limit and in the next second, it collapsed into shining pieces.

Lucien did not waste his time on casting Douglas’ Absorbing Wall again, instead, he grabbed Adam’s arm and used Short Distance Teleportation.

Following the flashing, Lucien and Adam appeared on the stairs a few steps away from the exit!

The spell could not move them far enough!

Lucien knew this well. Regardless of the sharp pain in his skin, he shot out like an arrow. Rushing through the teeth, he fell onto the thick carpet. He quickly dodged to the other side as Adam followed right behind him. Lucien felt a bit relieved and then started to look around.

That place should be the old witch’s study. On one side, there were several rows of bookshelves. On the opposite side, a couple of beautiful statues of women were placed there. In the middle, there was a fancy desk, on which center there was a crystal ball. Inside the crystal ball, the mini model of the whole magic tower was displayed!

However, the old witch wearing the red robe was sitting right behind the desk!

Her skin sagged horribly and wrinkles covered her whole face.

Both Lucien and Adam were startled when seeing the witch!

When Lucien was about to cast spells, he realized that something was wrong here. So he hurriedly stopped Adam and said, “It’s okay. It’s just a mirrored reflection.”

Adam was still very nervous, “Reflection?!”

“This is a sixth-circle spell that produces a mirrored reflection of the caster. The reflection could move and speak under the control of the caster as well, however, it cannot use magic. If we attack it, the witch will know,” said Lucien, trying his best to slow down his own beating heart.

Then, Lucien started to cast spells to cure the wounds on himself and Adam left by the strong acid.

Adam complained, “The bloody witch looks crazy, but she’s still very insidious.”

After that, Lucien cast a few defensive spells on himself and then walked to the crystal ball, trying to analyze the controlling hub.

About almost an hour later, when it was already close to midnight, Lucien finally finished his analysis. He put his right hand on the crystal ball and started to cast the spell. He pierced his spiritual power into the crystal ball like a needle.

In order to control the crystal ball. Lucien must not only crack it but also remove the spiritual imprint in it left by the old witch!

His spiritual power swam around in the crystal ball through many obstacles and finally reached the core part, where the old witch’s spiritual imprint was in.

Feeling the threat, the crystal ball suddenly lit up like a shining sun.

All the magic patterns and symbols in the crystal ball were shining, concentrating the power of the entire magic tower to kill the intruder.

In the energy core, Carina saw that the energy pool started to boil. She instantly activated the magic circle left by Lucien.

The twelve circles lit up at the same time, and the darkness from the magic circle suddenly filled up the whole space. Everything seemed to have been frozen.

Being very decisive, Carina, Alva, and Bullard hurriedly turned around and ran toward the gate in the darkness.

The energy flow had been cut off. The crystal ball lost the protection!

If Lucien failed to remove the spiritual imprint, he would die from the great energy that would bounce back.

Ten seconds… That was all Lucien had.

At this time, the mirrored reflection behind the desk suddenly started to become alive. The angry voice came from afar, “You two nasty flies! I’ll turn you two into dried bodies!”

The life force in the reflection was getting stronger and stronger. Within a second, the old witch had come back!

The sixth-circle spell, Position Exchange!

After using this spell, the two preset targets within the range of five hundred meters could be connected together. Within a second, the two targets could switch their positions! This was probably this old witch’s unique magic!

No one could ever look down upon a sorcerer, even if he or she was an ancient sorcerer!
