The villainous young master just wants to live a Buddhist-like life.

　"In the name of Gavin North, a magical summoning—" Just then, the ground suddenly trembled.

　"Hurry up!" Dark shouted.

　Everyone's gaze once again turned to the direction where the giant elephant's shadowy form had appeared. The tremors from the elephant's movement became increasingly pronounced.

　Its movement speed was clearly much faster than recorded in the crystal ball. In less than five minutes, just two and a half, it was already very close. Faintly, that terrifying figure, over three hundred meters tall, had already pierced through the mist and entered everyone's field of vision.

　Gavin North, having summoned his backup mount, gritted his teeth, grabbed Count Stanley Longfellow, and leaped onto it, galloping off in the direction the prophecy indicated.

　The guard, Gwen, quickly followed, using her abilities to dispel the fog and increase the overall speed of their journey.

　The three members of the Holy Church immediately abandoned any other thoughts and focused all their attention on preparing to deal with the approaching giant elephant!

　The penetrating sound of drums and the vibrations of the giant elephant's feet pounding the ground continued to reverberate.

　Just half a minute later.

　The fog outside the camp's barrier was churning violently.

　A colossal elephant, as large as a mountain, burst through the mist, revealing its terrifyingly massive form.

　At that moment, the distance between the two sides narrowed to a certain range.

　The aura, contained within a certain area by the giant elephant, surged into everyone's minds like a tsunami crashing onto land.

　That divine aura, carrying a terrifying pressure, pressed down heavily.

　The three members of the Holy Church simultaneously touched the ground with their feet, and golden halos lit up beneath their feet, instantly connecting them. The golden light flowing around their bodies also interacted and circulated, forming a "Trinity".

　The three of them, including Dak, were already quite familiar with this level of divine pressure and quickly began to observe the appearance of the giant elephant.

　"boom!"

　The barrier shattered as easily as glass.

　The giant elephant's foreleg crushed the barrier and stepped into it! That area collapsed, causing the surrounding ground to deform violently.

　Looking up now, one can see the enormous elephant trunk emerging from the mist, and its smooth forehead faintly glowing.

　It was moving through the mist, but unlike the "Flower of Demeter," it did not dispel the mist from its surroundings.

　At their current distance, they could only see a very small portion of its shape. However, combined with the images inside the crystal ball, the group had a grasp of the giant elephant's overall appearance.

　A gust of wind rippled around Professor Sylph, and "Wind Spirit Queen Sylph" appeared silently from behind her.

　The three members of the Holy Church were taken aback by this. Although they had already guessed that Professor Sylph had been hiding her identity, they were still surprised when it was revealed.

　However, at the same time, a sense of unavoidable reassurance also arose.

　Other people or forces may not know much about this low-profile vice principal of St. Marian Academy.

　However, the Holy Church has always regarded St. Marian Academy as its hypothetical enemy, so it is impossible for them not to be aware of Professor Sylph's strength.

　In this world, not just any elf user can command the Elf King so freely!

　Although the "Elf King" was a magical elf, it was precisely because of this that it was even more terrifying.

　However, while feeling slightly reassured, Bishop Sabrina Melville also felt a competitive spirit.

　Her eyes flashed, and she took out a small gold cup from her handbag.

　The hourglass-shaped gold cup was covered with exquisite and detailed carvings, and it had a lid.

　She unscrewed the lid, revealing a scent remarkably similar to incense. Inside the golden cup was half a cup of soft, black clay.

　She stretched out her slender fingers, scooped out a bit of soft clay from the cup, and silently chanted a summons.

　With the soft mud as an offering, a holy light-emitting sacrificial summoning circle appeared beneath his feet.

　A sacred yet fierce aura erupted in an instant!

　Beside Bishop Sabrina Melville, a large angel three meters tall appeared.

　The angel was tall and thin, with a hunched back, arms that hung down to his knees, long, thin, sharp nails, and pale, withered skin.

　Completely different from the traditional image of angels, the angels summoned by Bishop Sabrina Melville only had heads that were as beautiful as angels.

　The angelic halo above its head had a radius of over one meter, and black viscous liquid dripped from the broken halo.

　Its wings were also broken and exuded an aura of decay.

　But it is neither dark nor a fallen angel.

　This is one of Bishop Sabrina Melville's trump cards—"Black Angel Buck"!

　They oversee black jails and control criminal law.

　"Black Prison Angel Buck" is a legendary angelic executioner who bears heavy sins but still yearns for the light.

　After that, the Twin Paladins each summoned two angels using their own methods.

　Emily Grantham summoned the "Slow Angel" again. Albert Grantham, on the other hand, summoned a "Sword Guardian Angel" wielding a sword and shield.

Chapter 952 Professor Sylph's Probing and Response (4k)

　Albert Grantham's "Sword Guardian Angel" can switch between offense and defense, making it a standard melee-type angel.

　This is not the strongest magical spirit in his possession, but it is the one with the deepest bond and the best synergy.

　Furthermore, "Sword Guardian Angel" can generate a buff for the team during the transition between offense and defense, thereby increasing Albert's own attack or defense.

　This allowed Albert's own combat power to increase simultaneously. After each of them summoned their magical spirits, the three members of the Holy Church summoned "Holy Protection" to protect themselves, thus completing their preparations.

　Meanwhile, among the three from the academy, only Professor Sylph summoned "Wind Spirit King Sylph".

　The magical sprite that looked exactly like Professor Sylph floated on either side of Professor Sylph's body, along with "The Bride of Stormwind".

　However, the "Bride of Stormwind" no longer possesses the "Crown of the Wind King" and the "Wind Bride".

　Without the boost from those two pieces of equipment, "The Bride of Stormwind" is significantly weakened in combat.

　But they had just returned and had no time to rest.

　Leaving aside "Wind King's Crown", "Stormwind's Bride" will be unable to use "Wind Bride" for a short period of time.

　Therefore, she had to summon "Wind Spirit Queen Sylph" to make up for the missing combat power.

　A similar situation occurred with Dark.

　He used too many magic cards in the battle against the "Demeter Flower," and now they are all unsummonable.

　This even includes [Moon God (Divine Armament)].

　Since he is temporarily unable to evolve into a "Moon God," he must devote himself to protecting himself, which limits the combat power he can provide.

　Moreover, confronting this giant elephant head-on is not a good option.

　As for Professor Kazel, his battle magic spirit, "Black Steel Golem," is always by his side, so there is no need to summon it.

　After Chris summoned a "Black Raven" and placed it outside, she also slipped back into Dark's shadow—at that instant, Dark's shadow seemed to come alive, and ripples like water spread around it.

　Immediately afterwards, everyone present took action.

　Dark and Professor Kazel mounted the steel golem of the "Goblin Alchemist" and retreated at an extremely fast speed.

　Professor Sylph and the Holy Trio suddenly soared into the sky, observing the giant elephant, which had stopped moving, with serious expressions.

　The giant elephant's eyes were hidden behind the thick fog, but everyone present felt as if they were being stared at.

　Clearly, while they were observing the giant elephant, the giant elephant was also observing them. This giant elephant, which was over three hundred meters tall, possessed a higher level of intelligence that the "Flower of Demeter" lacked.

　It did not attack Dark and the others immediately upon encountering them. The reason it suddenly accelerated was because it had detected their presence.

　Having wisdom does not necessarily mean being able to communicate.

　Its attitude was clearly not friendly.

　They didn't attack immediately, probably just observing the strength of their opponent.

　The two stared at each other for a full half minute.

　During this round, the mist had already poured into the camp through the broken barrier.

　The part of the giant elephant that was visible from the front was gradually covered by mist.

　But just as their vision was once again obscured by the fog, the two sides, as if by unspoken agreement, launched their actions at the same instant.

　"Roar--"

　The giant elephant let out a deep roar, and its thick trunk, like a dragon, instantly emerged from the mist, stirring up the surrounding mist and turning it into a vortex, as if it were about to engulf the entire space.

　Professor Sylph flew in the front, bearing the brunt of the attack.

　Her eyes widened suddenly, emitting a bluish-white light. At the same time, the "Wind Elf King Sylph" beside her raised her right hand, and an immense magical wave emanated from it. The swirling mist around them froze for a moment, and then suddenly exploded in all directions.

　The elephant's trunk was fully revealed after the mist was dispelled. Bishop Sabrina Melville gave a soft rebuke, and the "Black Angel" transformed into a streak of black light with a mournful howl, lunging towards the elephant's trunk.

　The next second, the twelve-star magical spirit, "Black Prison Angel," was heavily knocked away by the elephant's trunk, flying backward at an even faster speed than when it had charged out.

　But just as it was about to disappear into the mist, the "Black Prison Angel" vanished instantly and returned to the elephant's trunk in the blink of an eye. Now, its slender hands held a huge black scythe dripping with black slime.

　With a wave of its hands, the jet-black scythe silently slashed down at the spot on the elephant's trunk that it had initially struck.

　A black mark reeking of decay remained on that part of the elephant's trunk.

　The black scythe struck the mark, causing it to explode instantly, turning into a thin line that extended backward, forming a black ring on the elephant's trunk.

　The black ring took shape, and then the enormous elephant trunk suddenly broke off from the middle! "Roar!"

　The giant elephant suddenly raised its head and let out a painful roar.

　However, none of the four people facing them showed a smile.

　As the half of the elephant trunk fell, a new tip of the trunk suddenly emerged from the wound, and the trunk body behind that tip stretched out in an instant, thus restoring it to a complete trunk.

　The elephant trunk that was falling down transformed into a giant gray-white python in mid-air, rushing rapidly towards Dark and Professor Cazell who were retreating.

　"drink!"

　At that moment, a soft shout rang out, and the wind element within sight was completely brought under Professor Sylph's control.

　The sudden gust of wind clashed violently with the mysterious power contained within the mist, actually pushing the mist enveloping the giant elephant violently behind it.

　The mist covering a radius of several hundred meters in front of it was blown away, completely revealing the giant elephant's form.

　Its tusks are raised and sharp as knives, with huge drums attached to both sides of its neck, and its body is covered with plate-like hard armor, each plate as smooth and lustrous as jade.

　The earpieces had gold metal trim around their edges, and when struck, they produced a faint metallic sound.

　Professor Sylph suddenly raised her hand, and this time even the two twelve-star magic sprites, including "The Bride of Stormwind," made the same move.

　Above the three palms, endless wind elements swept in, each transforming into a rapidly spinning "wind element spear".

　The "Wind Element Spear" grew thicker and longer at an extremely rapid pace. Although it was still not as thick as an elephant's trunk, it was not much different.

　She ignored the elephant's trunk, which had transformed into a giant python, and focused entirely on dealing with the giant elephant.

　"call--"

　With a whooshing sound, the three "Wind Element Guns" burst forth after being compressed to their limit.

　Wherever the spear passed, a vacuum was created.

　Two of the "Wind Elemental Spears" were aimed at the giant elephant's eyes, with the one in the middle pointing directly at its forehead.

　Almost instantly, the "Wind Element Spears" hit their targets. But the giant elephant's ears suddenly slammed against the giant drum, and two drumbeats rang out. An invisible force field instantly erupted, shattering all three "Wind Element Spears"!

　Immediately afterwards, the giant elephant suddenly raised its trunk, and like water boiling in a kettle, clouds and mist of gas billowed out from its trunk.

　The gas filled the space at an extremely fast speed, once again enveloping the giant elephant's body in mist.

　After this round of probing, Professor Sylph had a general understanding of the giant elephant's strength.

　Her lips moved, and her voice reached the ears of everyone present. At that moment, the elephant trunk that had transformed into a giant python pounced on Professor Kazel and Dark. But in the blink of an eye, the "Black Steel Golem" cleaved its skull open with a single stroke, cutting from its head all the way to its neck, almost splitting it in two.

　But as soon as it straightened its upper body, the snake's head, which had been split in two, closed up again without any visible injury.

　Professor Kazel frowned and prepared to summon a new magic card. Seeing this, Dark Dimon immediately said, "Professor, I'll do it."

　As soon as he finished speaking, the "Fantasy Beast: Destroyer" leaning against him pointed and announced the destruction of the giant python: "Death time, thirty seconds later." Professor Kazel's heart stirred, and he immediately instructed the "Black Steel Golem" to continue the attack.

　Without the support of the giant elephant's body, the elephant trunk that had transformed into a giant python suffered a significant decrease in both strength and defense.

　The "Black Steel Puppet" raised its jet-black, unyielding longsword and pounced. Its movements were lightning-fast; the sword in its hand became a blur, piercing directly through the giant python's defenses and penetrating its body—an injury of this magnitude would normally have no effect on the python. However, the python's regenerative abilities seemed to vanish suddenly; the sword, in its shadow, left countless wounds within its body.

　Thirty seconds passed in the blink of an eye. The "Black Steel Puppet" calmly sheathed its sword, and the giant python was already cut into eight pieces.
