A mage's journey begins with a battle mage.

Chapter 301 Fierce Battle with Risco

In just a few minutes, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse, and now they only had four people left.

The men all looked extremely grim. They had thought this was a sure thing, and even if they couldn't kill Jiang Shuzhou, they could at least take one of his lives.

But things didn't go as planned, and their expectations were ultimately dashed.

The paladin and the priest exchanged glances and made a decision: it was best to leave first.

So they slowly retreated.

"Trying to escape?"

Jiang Shuzhou flashed out from the corner, his scythe spinning and slashing directly at the paladin's armor.

With a clang, a tiny scratch appeared on the paladin's armor.

At the same time, Jiang Shuzhou didn't forget to take care of Peli and the spellbreaker assassin behind him, and launched another round of spell bombardment, which made them suffer terribly.

Without needing to counter other people's spells, Jiang Shuzhou's spellcasting speed and power have reached a new level.

The paladin withstood Jiang Shuzhou's attack, but at the same time, he sensed the damage to his armor. He felt a chill run down his spine; this armor, infused with a large amount of refined gold and blessed, was incredibly sturdy.

However, even such sturdy armor was damaged; if this continued, they would surely die.

"Justice will prevail over evil!"

Thinking of this, the paladin gritted his teeth, forcefully grabbed the blade of Jiang Shuzhou's scythe with his hand, and held it tightly, intending to wrestle with Jiang Shuzhou.

In this situation, Jiang Shuzhou either has to give up his weapon or wrestle with the paladin; either way, they'll come out ahead.

However, Jiang Shuzhou's weapon is a soul weapon, which can not only be put away and put away at any time, but also change its form.

Therefore, the paladin's actions were meaningless.

However, Jiang Shuzhou planned to use this as a pretext to inflict enough damage on the paladin before leaving.

"Don't you want to live anymore?!"

Jiang Shuzhou sounded anxious, as if his weapon had been completely seized.

As he spoke, Jiang Shuzhou's spell struck the paladin, and at the same time, a flame spread along the scythe.

That is an eternal fire that will consume everything.

This is a very common rule among mages, and many mages master it: the rule of eternal flame, the rule under the law of fire.

The paladin thought he had Jiang Shuzhou under control, but according to the theory of relativity, he was also forcibly controlled by Jiang Shuzhou.

My heart is as strong as steel, and will never perish!

The flames burned the paladin's entire body, and he felt a sharp pain, but he did not let go.

"Killing you would make it all worthwhile!"

A golden opportunity! Peli's eyes lit up, and his longsword flashed, carrying immense pressure as he slashed directly at Jiang Shuzhou.

"God will judge you."

The priest beside him showed no mercy, casting a binding spell in an attempt to render Jiang Shuzhou unable to move.

At the same time, he unleashed the divine spell "Unforgivable Sins," intending to trap Jiang Shuzhou in an illusion.

The indelible sins are a divine spell of the benevolent gods. After being released, the person being released will be tormented by their conscience and will be trapped in an illusion because of the sins in their heart.

Furthermore, this divine spell was guaranteed to hit, so the priest was not worried at all that Jiang Shuzhou would be able to break free.

The Assassin had no intention of getting close to Jiang Shuzhou. He was quickly cleaning the dust off his body, because the way of an assassin was to strike a fatal blow from the shadows.

This is also his greatest role: deterrence and finding opportunities. If he were to greedily attack Jiang Shuzhou directly, what would happen next?

If the attack hits, Jiang Shuzhou will be seriously injured even without him; if the attack misses, he will have wasted his hard-won chance to catch his breath.

"Brother, are you preparing the body and will?"

Jiang Shuzhou's voice came from beside his ear, and then, accompanied by a whooshing sound, the Spellbreaker Assassin was plunged into eternal darkness.

"How could that be!"

The others were shocked, especially the paladin and the priest, one of whom forcibly exchanged injuries for injuries, and the other who released the divine spell of inexorable sin.

They thought that even if they failed to kill or seriously injure Jiang Shuzhou, they could at least slow down his advance.

But no, Jiang Shuzhou's movements were swift and decisive; he flashed directly in front of the spellbreaker assassin and then delivered a slash.

At this moment, Peli had just unleashed his ultimate move and had no energy to protect the Spellbreaker Assassin. The Spellbreaker Assassin himself was quite relaxed, cleaning the illuminating dust off his body, and had no idea that Jiang Shuzhou would suddenly attack.

Perhaps he was still thinking that with Paley protecting him, he would be completely safe.

"How could you... how could you?"

The paladin looked at his empty hands and felt a wave of despair wash over him.

Death is not scary; what is scary is dying without any value.

His entire body was scorched by flames, and he thought it would bring a favorable outcome to the battle, but unexpectedly, his sacrifice was of no use.

"It's a real shame that one of you is gone, but there's no need to grieve. Soon, you will all be joining him in death."

"You, weren't you under a divine spell?"

Jiang Shuzhou did not respond to the pastor's questions.

After all, the battle had begun, and he had no reason to answer these people's questions.

He didn't want to say anything except trash talk.

To be honest, Jiang Shuzhou felt nothing at all about the so-called "divine technique to erase one's sins".

When the divine spell landed on Jiang Shuzhou, he felt as if someone was questioning him.

"You've killed so many people, doesn't your conscience hurt?"

"Won't."

Jiang Shuzhou answered in his heart.

"So many people were killed because of your selfish desires, and you still dare to say your conscience doesn't hurt!"

"It doesn't hurt at all. Besides, it's not a human, it's a fish-man. It's just that there's a human character in it. Theoretically speaking, they are fish, fish that look like humans."

"You have no conscience, you heartless bastard!"

Why are you in such a hurry?

"Who said that! I've saved more people than I've killed!"

"I'm your conscience. Don't I know how many people you've saved and how many you've killed?!"

"I saved a lot of people, but I didn't kill a single one."

"fart!"

"You've killed so many people, have you forgotten the people who died in your lab?!"

"They have committed heinous crimes and are no longer human. I hereby declare them excommunicated!"

"Huh? Now that you mention it, it seems you haven't actually killed anyone."

"That's right! You're my conscience, you know best, we're truly good people!"

"You know what, it's true!"

In any case, Jiang Shuzhou easily convinced his conscience.

Immediately afterwards, the sound disappeared, and apart from hearing that sound, nothing else happened to Jiang Shuzhou.

There was no illusion or torture, so it had no effect on Jiang Shuzhou.

The divine spell of "sins cannot be erased" only applies to people who still have a conscience and whose conscience is still normal; it is essentially a form of self-examination.

Clearly, this kind of magic had no effect on someone like Jiang Shuzhou, who could easily persuade himself; it couldn't even control Jiang Shuzhou for a second.

As a high-level mage, Jiang Shuzhou's thinking speed was extremely fast; from the moment the spell was cast until it ended, it took less than a second.
