Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Vincent used the Groundbreak consecutively and destroyed the Formation Cores that were arranged on the hill… These Formation Cores were hiding the Tower Master so he has to destroy them first.
This way, his Mana Sense and Item Sense would have no issues finding the Tower Master.
"Vincent!" The Tower Master cried in anguish as Vincent destroyed his hiding place.
As a matter of fact, he was injured because of this sudden attack! He was too complacent believing that his Formation Art would hide him from Vincent…
As the name implies, the Groundbreak Skill that Vincent just used has no issues destroying the terrain. Each of his strikes can shatter the surroundings and affect any living beings who are on the ground.
Apparently, the Tower Master was hiding underground and was only fighting Vincent using an Observer Magic Ward that he can use to remotely attack using a Tier 2 Mana Art.
He was planning to weaken Vincent using this method since he was confident that his Mana could easily outlast this young man.
He thought that he can continue doing this indefinitely but he did not expect that Vincent would even think of destroying the whole hill just to find him!
"There you are…" Vincent smiled as soon as he saw the Tower Master who had jumped away…
He also noticed that this man is actually quite old… He seems to be in his sixties but because of his large build and the armor he was wearing, he appears to be younger at a first glance.
After finally seeing his target, Vincent\'s eyes lit up as he first ordered his Flying Swords to distract the Tower Master…
However, the Tower Master is slow either as three Fire Balls were made with a flick of his finger before throwing it on Vincent… He actually ignored the Flying Swords and opted to attack Vincent instead.
Vincent had no choice but to cancel his preparation for a big attack and kept his gauntlet in his System\'s Inventory to reactivate his Celestial Armor…
Thud… Thud… Thud…
The Fireballs were ineffective and didn\'t even leave a dent in his Armor.
As for the flying swords, Vincent was surprised to see that the Tower Master was actually grazed by the three of them.
His shoulder, thigh, and arm got injured!
He was simply hoping that it would distract the Tower Master for a moment and he didn\'t expect that it would be this effective.
\'Hmm?\' Vincent was confused as he looked at the Tower Mater carefully. There was no way that someone at his level would fail to avoid that…
This time, he found out that the Tower Master\'s ears were actually bleeding!
It seems that it was due to the aftershock from his Groundbreak.
Based on what he knows, the Groundbreak isn\'t just a simple technique that summons an earthquake to destroy the ground after every punch. It creates a strong vibration underground that softens its hold and makes everything above it collapse…
\'Good!\' Vincent smiled seeing this as a perfect opportunity to get closer to the man…
Clap!
Realizing that Vincent wanted to get closer, the Tower Master clapped his hand and it seem to trigger his Magic Tool\'s barrier.
Vincent didn\'t care about this as he just punched it with all his might.
Although he\'s no longer wearing the Basilisk Gauntlet, this Celestial Armor is incredibly tough and he doesn\'t need to hold back or worry about its durability at all.
Although he doesn\'t have a method to repair this item if it loses durability, he can simply ask Tara or the others to help him repair it.
Bang!
The Barrier didn\'t crack after being hit but Vincent wasn\'t worried.
\'Touchless Mana Drain…\'
\'Soul Pressure…\'
One Mana Art and One Soul Art were used at the same time.
This time, Vincent knows that he\'s going to win… As long as he stays near this Tower Master, it\'s only a matter of time before this old man gets exhausted.
Of course, he wouldn\'t just stay still as he pulled out his Ironbark Cane to beat up this Magician…
The battle between them lasted for over 30 minutes and there were many times that Krusks and the others wanted to help him.
However, Vincent rejected their offer as he can tell that this old man would just escape as soon as he realized that the battle wasn\'t in his favor. On the other hand, if Vincent continued fighting alone, the Tower Master would have a false hope that he would be able to escape anytime he wanted…
Little did he know that his Mana is being drained little by little and Vincent\'s Corrosive Mana is also slowly affecting him…
This is Vincent\'s current limit at the moment, casting 2 lower Tier Mana Arts at the same time.
Although he can\'t cast Tier 3 Mana Arts, he was at least capable of dual-casting Tier 1 or Tier 2 Mana Arts which is quite a decent compensation.
He wanted to capture this Tower Master alive!
If he did this successfully, the secrets of the Black Magic Tower will be revealed to him. Furthermore, he would be able to know the extent of cooperation they have with the Barbarian Race…
"You---"
Suddenly, the Tower Master tried using a higher-tier Mana Art to melt the armor but realized that something was wrong with his body…
He wanted to just play around to see the limits of the Celestial Armor as he had never fought against someone capable of using this… Unfortunately for him, his curiosity backfired and he was now caught in Vincent\'s trap…
"So you finally noticed…" Vincent smiled after seeing that the Tower Master was about to use a potion to heal his body from his abnormal status…
Of course, Vincent didn\'t allow him to consume whatever elixir this was and used his Astral Night Dagger to cut the Tower Master\'s arm…
