CHAPTER 645: CHAPTER 642 EXPOSED

The hurricane dropped directly from the sky.

With the end of the Wizard of Barrier Mountain’s spell, a terrifying vortex resembling a large tornado descended upon the sea.

This sudden hurricane not only enveloped the entire battlefield.

It even connected with the seawater below, mixing violent air currents with the intense water currents, sealing the space from top to bottom.

Ronald couldn’t help but recall the earlier whirlpools in the water and the spiral air currents in the sky.

—It was obvious.

—This was the culprit that had previously influenced the battlefield.

But now, to defend against the attack before him, the Wizard deployed his spells with even greater ferocity.

And as the specific target of this spell.

Ronald had just summoned the Hell Black Mist, which was also swept up by both the seawater and the hurricane.

Only a few seconds had passed.

A dark curtain, filled with immense magic power, completely enveloped the area.

If anyone dared to touch it at this moment...

There were only two possible outcomes for those who couldn’t defend.

—Be torn to shreds by the hurricane and the seawater.

—Or be directly crushed by Ronald’s Hell Black Mist.

"..."

At this moment, Ronald couldn’t help but look up at the sky.

Compared to the dangerous environment around him, the center of the cyclone had its clouds completely drawn out, resulting in an incredibly clear sky.

No tools were needed.

Now, simply by looking up, one could see the bright night sky and the edge of the moon peeking through.

"That’s not bad..."

He chuckled and shook his head.

Ronald was not disheartened by the interference with his spell.

He tightened the grip on his right hand holding the Sword of Saint Catherine and then began chanting the incantation he knew so well:

"Beginning with the relationship between the entire Earth and the sky, let’s construct our understanding."

He activated the spell from "Astronomy Master."

This time, Ronald did not use "Measurement" to assist himself.

Instead, he followed the example of the previous owner of this original text, applying both "Equal Wheel" and "Star Traction" to several of the Barrier Mountain Wizards at once.

"Equal Wheel" flung people outward.

While "Star Traction" controlled them to come toward Ronald.

Thus, a simple yet effective attack emerged.

Under the intensely maximized spell interference, the less defended Barrier Mountain Wizards barely had time to defend themselves, their bodies were torn apart by the two starkly different forces in the moment they realized the attack was descending.

Snap, snap, snap—

One, two, three blooms of blood exploded in midair.

At this point, a man-made deity, who had yet to make a move, finally acted. It still didn’t open its eyes but simply stretched out its hand and waved in front of itself.

"Enough—"

Splat!

A strange sound echoed in the air.

Following that, the Wizards who were still combating the power of "Astronomy Master" were almost simultaneously freed from the threat of death.

"..."

Meanwhile,

Ronald’s eyes sharpened across the sky.

He was, of course, very familiar with the status of his own spells.

The moment the man-made deity’s voice fell, Ronald felt a surge of magic power that fell like a guillotine with the deity’s gesture, completely severing the magic power he provided for the spell.

—Another new spell.

Just as the man-made deity marveled at Ronald’s increased strength.

At this moment, seeing the new spell produced by the man-made deity, Ronald couldn’t help but marvel at the enemy’s level of trouble and at Queen Dantrian’s strength.

To have just exchanged blows with such an opponent.

And then to possess a capability so clearly suppressive against that lurking sea monster...

It really was impressive...

Danger!

Dodge to the left immediately!

Suddenly, an untraceable alertness rose in Ronald’s heart, and he almost instinctively complied, dodging to the left!

"..."

Then, nothing happened.

There were no visible magic fluctuations in the air.

Nor was there any physical attack that hit where he had just been.

Ronald frowned.

That momentary alert had actually been a hint from the "Instinct" spell in "Origins of Species."

A canonical spell enhancement.

It surely couldn’t be wrong at such a critical juncture?

Soon, reality told Ronald that the warning mechanism of "Instinct" was not mistaken.

For shortly after he dodged, the artificial deity across from him openly spoke:

"Can you sense my attack?"

But before Ronald could reply,

The white-robed wizard behind the artificial deity revealed the truth first:

"It’s ’Instinct’!"

"This guy used Ella’s original text, that’s Ella’s ability—named ’Instinct’ enhancement technique!"

"..."

"How could he possibly have deciphered Ella’s original text so quickly?"

"That must be a spell from the latter part of the original text!"

Amid the shouting, the tone of the white-robed wizard gradually twisted.

In addition to anger about Ronald’s last encounter with Ella, there was a mix of confusion and fear.

Though Ronald had entered Barrier Mountain,

According to the divine texts extracted by the opponent, he should not have been able to decipher the text type of "Origins of Species."

Keep in mind for them,

It had only been a little over a day since Barrier Mountain had dispatched a council wizard.

Normal human learning of spells...

It surely couldn’t reach this level!

"..."

At this moment, however, Ronald was not at all concerned with the opponent’s thoughts.

His first action was to turn and look at the people of Springs behind him, thinking—his cover was now blown.

The shouts of the Barrier Mountain white-robed wizard

Had already revealed that Ronald himself possessed an extraordinary ability to decipher original texts.

Combining this information with his activities in Springs and Berenweig, those with substantial information on Ronald could easily deduce such a result.

If one were to confirm it using a Prophetic Spell or something similar...

Comparing the "Nine Commandments" missing "Book of Interpretation," even if he dealt with the Barrier Mountain wizard, he was bound to face a lot of trouble.

This point was also very apparent in reality.

With Ronald’s vision, he could clearly see that one of the three directors of the investigative bureau was now looking at him oddly.

Even in the midst of a dangerous battlefield.

One could guess the attitude of such people afterward without wondering.

"..."

"This is really troublesome..."

Ronald muttered under his breath and turned his attention back to the Barrier Mountain wizard.

Since the artificial deity had just launched an invisible and intangible attack on him,

The fight had reached the most critical moment.

It was time to decide the winner.

Swoosh—

Ronald was not the only one with this thought!

In that instant, Ronald’s vision flashed, and almost out of reaction, a nearly pure white figure appeared in front of him.

Only those slightly opened crimson eyes,

Revealed its identity—

The artificial deity.
