Versatile Mage: Throne of Dimensions

Chapter 9 The Boundary Between Life and Death
  Su Zhe began to calm down and looked at the surrounding situation carefully.

After being caught off guard at the beginning, the mages have stabilized their front, and shining magic fell into the demon group one by one.

But as the corpses of monsters pile up, it becomes easier for monsters to rush forward. From the beginning to now, about one-tenth of the mages on the northern city wall have died.

At least thirty mages!
  Su Zhe looked at the corpses of his kind and tried to keep his brain calm.

Wang Lei's team was still around, and all the team members were still around. Su Zhe breathed a sigh of relief, at least everyone he was familiar with was still there.

Just when Su Zhe thought that this beast tide would pass smoothly, a piercing howl came from the demon group.

Su Zhe felt his brain buzzing, and his expression turned ugly when he saw a wolf demon revealed among the demons.

A battle general, an absolute battle general level.

The bloody eyes, sharp claws, and the drool left around its mouth all show its ferocity and bloodthirsty.

Su Zhe took a deep breath, "Everyone, be careful, this beast is coming towards us."

Wang Lei was shocked, "Battle general level, hurry up, Wang Ye calls for support, I will delay you."

Wang Ye hurriedly released the primary wind magic and ran towards the mid-level mage on the city wall.

Wang Lei retreated behind everyone, "Everyone, help me delay the time. I have to release the intermediate magic, so as to delay its pace."

This war general-level demonic wolf had obviously noticed Guangyao and rushed straight towards Su Zhe and others. Now only Wang Lei's release of mid-level magic could stop it.

The demon wolf jumped up and reached the top of the pile of demon corpses, looking at Su Zhe with cold eyes.

The demon wolf narrowed his eyes, it was just a non-threatening insect. Turning to look at Guangyao, this big rhinoceros actually gave it a sense of oppression. Are they those guys with high-blooded blood, human lackeys?

After all, the demon wolf was one level higher than Guangyao. It withstood the pressure of Guangyao's high-level bloodline, jumped up high again, and rushed directly behind Wang Lei, who was releasing intermediate magic.

Su Zhe's expression changed. It would take Wang Lei at least eight seconds to release an intermediate magic, and there were still six seconds left.

"Guangyao! Stop it!"

Guangyao responded, and the horn on his nose glowed white.

"Demon Skill——Light Angle Strike"

The demon wolf saw that the glorious horn was about to hit the body, and the wolf's body in mid-air twisted violently, and the glorious horn brushed against the demon wolf's body.

The sharp horn left a bloodstain on the demon wolf's side, further stimulating the demon wolf's ferocity.

The demon wolf used Guangyao's body to gain strength again and headed straight for Wang Lei.

There are five seconds left.

The magic of the water mage in the team is ready.

"Water Control—Guardian"

"Water Control—Guardian"

The water magic released by the two water mages merged together, and a water shield blocked Wang Lei.

The two basic magics were like clay in front of the war general-level demon wolf, breaking into pieces at the touch of a touch.

After only holding on for a second, the water shield suddenly shattered, and the water splash in the sky could not hide the dangerous gaze of the demon wolf.

There are still four seconds before Wang Lei releases his magic.

Seeing that the demon wolf was approaching Wang Lei, Su Zhe became anxious, but Guangyao was too big and difficult to turn on the city wall. Now the demon wolf was right behind Guangyao and there was no time to rescue him.

what to do? what to do!
  Just when the demon wolf's claws were attacking Wang Lei, a figure slammed into the demon wolf. The demon wolf's body swayed, and its claws did turn towards the figure subconsciously.

"Zhou Kangliang!"

Xu Qing, the water mage in the team, shouted anxiously.

The one who bumped into the demon wolf was another water mage in the team, Zhou Kangliang!
  Zhou Kangliang seemed to be dumbfounded on the spot, hugging the demon wolf's thigh tightly.

Su Zhe looked at everything in front of him in disbelief.

Zhou Kangliang is the water mage in the team. Su Zhe still remembers the water magic he blessed on his body. He is afraid that something will happen to his youngest teammate. Every time he encounters danger, the soft water magic will appear on Su Zhe.

The gentlest magic, the gentlest person... Su Zhe looked at this scene in disbelief.

"Brother Liang!"

Su Zhe roared, and his black eyes turned into dazzling silver at some point.

The stardust in the summoning system in the body expanded in an instant, and the seven stars crashed into the surroundings like crazy. Cracks appeared in the stardust. The next moment, the stardust suddenly shattered, and a vast starry universe appeared.

Su Zhe's hair was pushed back by the power generated during the breakthrough, and powerful wind pressure appeared around him.

Next to Xingyu, a small transparent stardust appeared, and seven stars were slowly rotating. Seven transparent stars appeared above the head, and the star path was completed instantly.

"Mind Control - Void Claw!"

A transparent claw firmly grasped the demon wolf's waist, and Su Zhe pulled back sharply with his right hand.

The demon wolf's body moved back more than half a meter, but its right claw still fell mercilessly...

How can elementary magic stop a warrior-level monster?
  "Zhou Kangliang!"

"A Liang!"

"Brother Liang!"

Zhou Kangliang fell to the ground weakly, and the body tissues in his body had been hooked out by the demon wolf's claws. The sharp claws cut off Zhou Kangliang's intestines in an instant.

There's one second left.

"Fire Fist! Boom!"

A huge fiery red fist hit the demon wolf's head, knocking the demon wolf off the city wall, and a scorching wave of air swept through Su Zhe's body.

But Su Zhe felt that the blood all over his body still seemed to be frozen, and he looked at Zhou Kangliang lying in a pool of blood in disbelief.

Su Zhe swallowed, "Liang, Brother Liang..." His voice was trembling, and he could hardly stand on his feet. He walked towards Zhou Kangliang tremblingly, and then started running again.

"Brother Liang!"

Su Zhe rushed to Zhou Kangliang's side and pressed his hands helplessly on Zhou Kangliang's chest.

Zhou Kangliang looked at Su Zhe with dull eyes, and the next moment he started to tremble violently.

"Family...family, please...please..."

The voice was weak and he could no longer breathe.

Su Zhe held Zhou Kangliang's hand, and finally couldn't help crying anymore, "Brother Liang, I know, and I will take good care of your family."

"Open your eyes and look at me, I'm Su Zhe!"

Zhou Kangliang closed his eyes.

Sorry little sister, I can't go to see you off for your high school entrance exam.

With a touch of regret, Zhou Kangliang breathed his last.

Su Zhe gasped for breath, his head turned stiffly to the sky, and tears fell weakly down the corners of his eyes.

What a breakthrough on the battlefield, what a protagonist, at this moment, the basic magic is unable to save Zhou Kangliang from the claws of the warrior-level demon wolf.

Strength, strength is everything. Only with strong strength can you protect the people around you.

Beside Zhou Kangliang, Wang Lei and others looked at Zhou Kangliang in silence. Even though they were mentally prepared, when all this really happened, everyone couldn't really take it seriously.

"A Liang has parents and a younger sister. She should go to high school next year."

"I put her through high school and I raised his parents."

"And us."

Wang Lei took a deep breath, "He was trying to save me... I know everyone's pain, and now we should kill these hateful monsters."

Wang Lei's voice was choked and he turned his head. Facing the demon, he could not bring negative emotions to his teammates. This would be fatal on the battlefield.

"Su Zhe, take Aliang down the city wall."

Su Zhe said nothing and carefully carried Zhou Kangliang on his back.

Walking towards the stairs step by step, and walking around the corner of the city wall, tears fell to the ground uncontrollably.

Su Zhe gritted his teeth and ran under the city wall like crazy, tears falling in the air.

Brother Liang, I...

Su Zhe didn't know what to say to Zhou Kangliang. Carrying Zhou Kangliang's gradually cooling body, Su Zhe ran numbly downwards.

Suddenly the sole of his foot slipped and he fell to the ground. Su Zhe held Zhou Kangliang's body tightly in his arms.

Suddenly it started to rain lightly in the sky.

Su Zhe lay in the mud on the ground, letting the rain drip into his eyes without realizing it.

Brother Liang, I swear that I will never let anyone I care about die in front of me again.
