The image of Ian Tucker, as Professor Sylph had just mentioned, echoed in his mind, and at that moment, he felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.
That was a feeling that never arose even when its thirty-two life boxes were destroyed.
At that moment, it instinctively realized that Professor Sylph's words were true: the "Ghost Eye" could certainly bind the soul and imprison it permanently within the wand's eyeball!
At this critical moment of life and death, the old lich made a decision that, in the eyes of its posterity, was absolutely correct.
It self-destructed its soul on the spot, amidst the astonished gazes of "Demon" Vernon, "Demon King" Aleister Eldridge, and "Bloodborne Sword Saint"!
"BOOM!"
The soul of "Lich" Ian Tarkel exploded into fireworks in the air during the brief moment of their direct confrontation.
"what!"
Then, in one of the life boxes, it woke up as if from a nightmare, suddenly straightened up, its whole body still trembling.
……
Thus, only two demons remained in the eastern sky.
The entire area was deathly silent, with only the thunder from the "Boundary-Breaking Thunder Sea" continuing to reverberate like background noise.
The "demon," whose mind was filled with nothing but muscles, felt a chill run down his spine and even felt his knees go weak.
Aleister Aldridge felt no fear; he was simply astonished that Professor Sylph had managed to persuade the old lich to self-destruct with just a few words.
Having spent several months with the old lich, it naturally knew how cunning he was.
But unexpectedly, the cunning lich self-destructed almost without doing anything.
Is it because Professor Sylph was telling the truth?
Of course, that's all the truth.
Professor Sylph held the "Ghost Eye" and sighed softly, saying, "It's a pity it's not the wind-attribute one."
"Ghost Eyes" can indeed bind souls, but she doesn't know the incantation for binding souls, that's all.
The reason why "The Lich" Ian Tuttle couldn't see through the problem was simply because it was already filled with fear.
In the presence of someone whose soul strength is twice that of itself, it is indeed like an ant—this is largely the universal value of the "lich" species.
Professor Sylph then slightly raised the "Ghost Eye" and pointed it at "Ghost Man" Vernon Ilictra.
The latter's muscles tensed up instantly, and a red magical light appeared on its body, bursting forth in an instant!
"Demons" are a relatively rare type of high-sequence demon who are not proficient in magic.
But this does not mean that the "Oni" has little magic.
In fact, the "Oni-man" possesses the same immense magical power as most demons, only they use it in different ways.
Their muscles can absorb magic power, fusing the muscles with the magic power to form special "magical tendons," which makes the explosive power of "Demons" far exceed that of other demons of the same rank. Both their strength and speed are extremely absurd.
The muscles of "Demon King" Aleister Aldridge are like this, and his physical strength basically comes from these "magical tendons".
Because his brain is all muscle, "Demon Man" will first consider using his muscles to solve most dangers.
Therefore, its method of dealing with "Ghost Eyes" is very simple - as long as you run out of the range of the "Ghost Eyes" immobilization spell before it is cast, you will not be immobilized!
The red magical light on its body surface not only pushes its muscles to their limits but also grants it the ability to move in the air.
In that instant, "Demon" Vernon not only escaped the range of the immobilization spell, but also completely disappeared from Professor Sylph's sight.
Its movements were incredibly fast, its ghostly claws outstretched with sharp nails, and the whistling sound was left behind.
As it charged toward Professor Sylph's side, the sound suddenly intensified, and its sharp, ghostly claws flashed toward Professor Sylph's throat.
Tooth for tooth, eye for eye!
It intends to decapitate Sylph in this single strike!
But all its fingers can touch is the formless wind!
Professor Sylph's body vanished in an instant, leaving only a phantom image.
Just like when she was struck by lightning, she perfectly avoided all the damage.
As his right-hand strike missed its mark, alarm bells rang in Vernon's mind. But just as he tried to pull his right hand back, a shackle silently appeared on his wrist—he could no longer...!
"Wind Spirit King Sylph" looked down, a hint of mockery appearing on his face, which resembled Professor Sylph's twin.
With a slight twitch of its fingers, countless chains suddenly extended from the shackles on Vernon's right hand, rushing towards its entire body!
Once the entire body is bound by these chains of wind, even a "demon" cannot break free.
Just then, lightning, sharp as a knife, suddenly struck!
Professor Sylph and "Wind Elf Queen Sylph" suddenly shifted to the side, avoiding the unexpected lightning strike.
However, the wind shackles released by "Wind Spirit King Sylph" were all severed.
Therefore, the "ghost" who escaped immediately revealed a fierce expression, and instead of retreating, he advanced and attacked again.
Almost simultaneously, a shadow loomed over.
Aleister Aldridge, whose abdomen had healed, appeared above Professor Sylph, his right hand, now blackened, slamming down and instantly shattering the surrounding wind.
Aleister Aldridge could watch the "Lich" Ian Tuttle self-destruct and die, but he couldn't bear to see the "Ogre," who remained loyal to it, be killed.
Now, when it makes a move, it's a thunderous strike.
The "Demon-Slaying Power" originating from the "Blackrock Clan" can expose elemental elves—although Professor Sylph's elementalization seems more unique. But despite the variations, the fundamental principle remains the same, and thus she is subject to the "Demon-Slaying Power."
But at that moment it almost forgot that the person standing in front of it was not just a simple elf, but a senior mage!
Professor Sylph suddenly raised the magic cards she had prepared, and a barrage of spears materialized from the magic circle, bombarding upwards with pure physical attacks.
Aleister Eldridge's palm strike was incredibly powerful, shattering the incoming spear with a single blow. However, Professor Sylph had gained ample time to react; her figure vanished from the spot along with "Wind Elf Queen Sylph," leaving no trace.
……
At that moment, as the Lich's soul self-destructed, Aleister Eldridge issued a mandatory order to the six black-robed demons in the western sky to breach the human defenses and kill Witt Gaudre inside the carriage.
Although these six demons usually did little work, they could not openly rebel under the Demon King's strong orders.
They exchanged glances, their expressions turning serious, knowing that there was no escaping what was coming today.
"Beast Demon" Donya Oraston made the first move.
Since "Wind Elf King Sylph" was not present, her "Thunderous Roc" came in handy.
Since it's a "beast demon," it's perfectly reasonable for it to control the demon beast from a distance to participate in the attack.
There are even remnants of the "Starry Sky Maze" on the back of the "Thunderous Giant Roc".
With a sudden flap of its wings, a storm arose, and lightning flashed on its wings, making it incredibly fierce.
The "Beast Demon" quickly disappeared, while the "Thunderous Roc" flew towards the carriage under its command.
Six two-legged dragons lined up in front of the carriage, five of which were immediately intimidated by the oppressive aura emanating from the "Thunderous Roc".
The Thunderous Roc sensed the presence of these "weaklings." Overjoyed, it finally had someone to bully to its heart's content!
Then it crashed into the "Wall of Fantasy" and appeared a kilometer away.
It froze on the spot, but thanks to the "Beast Demon's" reminder, it turned around in mid-air and flew back towards the pumpkin carriage.
Then, at some unknown time, it crashed into the "Wall of Illusion" again and appeared in another place a kilometer away...
"Hahaha!"
Professor Lily sat atop the "Thunderous Roc" and laughed so hard she almost fell over.
……
"Beast Demon" Donya finally noticed the little fairy sitting on a feather, dangling her little feet, and subconsciously shrank back.
"It's quite reasonable for the 'Beast Demon' to hide and wait for an opportunity to reclaim their magical beast after it has been stolen, isn't it?"
Donya muttered to herself, hiding herself even more secretly.
……
Donya was able to find reasonable excuses to slack off, but others couldn't.
"Corpse-Stitching Demon" Rororo sighed, pointed to the several people on the back of the wyvern, and said, "Choose one for yourselves."
"The Dead Swamp Lizard," Paul said in a gruff voice, "can we choose the person in the carriage? The one who uses fire, she'll always come out."
Dorothy, the "Fallen Fairy," immediately retorted sarcastically, "Non, you really know how to pick on the weak!"
The "Swamp Lizard's" voice suddenly grew louder: "Ground-type is super effective against Fire-type, this is a smart move on my part! Besides, there aren't enough to choose from outside. And what about you?"
Dorothy, the "Flying Banshee," narrowed her eyes and pointed at Sister Kallian: "That's her!"
Sister Carian emanated an exceptionally strong aura of light. But Dorothy was not afraid, and in her view, Sister Carian was relatively weak among that group.
She avoided being the weakest or the strongest, wanting both face and life.
Out of their instinctive aversion to the Light faction, the other demons had no objections.
Then, "Tower Demon" Ata said in a completely flat voice, "Are they gathered together, also discussing battle assignments?"
……
But then they saw Dark and the others riding two-legged dragons, floating in the air with their heads facing the carriage. Several people sitting in the carriage and Professor Mitia on the front of the carriage were gathered in a circle, and they were indeed discussing how to deal with these demons.
However, they did not discuss how to allocate the resources, because there were actually not many people who could still fight.
Aside from Professor Sylph, who was fighting three opponents at once, only Professor Jones and Professor Lily among the professors here still had their full strength intact.
Professor Midia is definitely no longer capable of participating in the battle, but Lord Montilfali still has the strength to fight.
But even with this calculation, there are only three people.
The only remaining fighting force consisted of Dark and his maid.
Although Dark Dimon performed exceptionally well at the academy, he was, after all, only a second-year student, and his maid naturally prioritized his safety.
Moreover, of the three maids, only Ollie was actually capable of maintaining effective combat power in aerial battles.
Eve's strength was insufficient to begin with, and although Angry was alright, before obtaining the "Twelve Gold Saint Armor," the gap between her strength and that of the professors was still quite large, not to mention that she did not have any special weapons for aerial combat.
Therefore, even with Ollie included, there's only one more person, making a total of four... oh, and Sister Kallian too!
"Don't always forget about me!" Sister Kallian said with a hint of exasperation, curling up a few strands of hair at her temples.
Please don't underestimate the role of the school nurse!
However, when Professor Mitia was planning the combat strength, it was indeed difficult to include her in the statistics.
Because she was unaware of Sister Carian's actual strength.
Inside the government building, Sister Kallian had only summoned one eight-star light-type angel.
Facing this group of demons with an eight-star magical spirit will definitely be extremely difficult.
Instead of pinning your hopes on her, it's better to pin your hopes on Ophelia being able to summon the "Bloodborne Sword Saint"...
Although "Bloodborne Sword Saint" is also an eight-star magical spirit, it is clearly different from ordinary eight-star spirits. Most importantly, it can use "Holy Sword Spell".
Unfortunately, the "Bloodborne Sword Saint" seems to be in a state where he cannot be recalled, and Ophelia herself has also suffered a great loss and is in very poor condition.
Otherwise, if she and Ophelia were to work together, they could barely be considered as one person.
Ultimately, whether it's her, Ophelia, or Sister Kallian, they're all support characters!
“It’s me!” Sister Kallian reiterated. “Look at that bird-man over there with only one wing, isn’t he eyeing me? Coincidentally, I’m eyeing it too!”
“That’s settled then.” Professor Jones nodded slightly and said decisively, “We need to get moving. We can’t let them turn back to support Number Two.”
Professor Mitia glanced at Sister Kallian again, her gaze lingering particularly on the "angel wings" behind her, before finally nodding and saying, "Those demons aren't actually that eager to fight. If we can drive them away, there's no need to pursue them. The most important thing is to get there as soon as possible to help Sylph seal Number Two."
"Understood." Professor Jones turned around abruptly, leaped onto the back of a wyvern, and then charged towards the group of demons together with the "cyborg colossus"!
She hadn't even considered the allocation of combat power or one-on-one combat!
With such a weak fighting spirit, a single charge could scare away several people!
A magic card appeared in her hand. After summoning it, she slammed it down on the wyvern beneath her. The light released by the magic card instantly spread to every inch of the wyvern, tattooing special "metallic magic patterns" on its body.
This "magic rune" enchantment belongs to both magic cards and item cards, and is somewhat similar in nature to the "Phantom Soldier Spell".
As the "metal runes" lit up one by one, the wyvern's aura increased, its defense improved, and it gained an additional layer of shield to protect its rider.
Professor Jones reached out again, and a huge steel arm armor materialized from his shoulder to his fingertips on his right arm, with a steel gun that was five meters long in his palm!
