Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy

Chapter 80 Against The Evil Creature

”Letʼs give up for now… Iʼm sure that Professor only wanted us to experience how strong this creature was.” Neil said as he agreed with his two friends.

The fluctuation of energy coming from the Creature reminds him of his familyʼs Guard Captain. It is a figure that could not be defeated in his eyes.

There was no way the three novices like them can win against it!

The Creature in front of them may even be stronger than the Guard Captain that he knows so they have to retreat before itʼs too late.

However, Leonore shook her head.

There was no way she would accept that.

Even if they donʼt kill the creature, they have to suppress it for at least a minute so she can argue to the professor that they have technically defeated the Evil Creature.

”Vale… What about you?” Leonore asked as she canʼt be bothered convincing the other students.

”Letʼs give it a try…” Vale said as he noticed Chad, Leonore, Aubrey, and Warren nod in agreement.

”Great!” Leonore was glad since Valeʼs Ghost Hands would be crucial in the plan that she made in her mind.

”My Ghost Hands can still last for quite some time. Letʼs try one more time.” Vale added. He already checked his Spell Light and confirmed that it is still completely black.

It means that it is still filled with energy and that there is nothing to worry about.

As for the duration of his Phantasm State, itʼs not something he has to worry about at all!

Leonore smiled as she gave another series of commands.

”Chad, use your Dark Mist… Cover the Creatureʼs body… It hasnʼt finished its transformation but once itʼs done, weʼll be in trouble. We need to weaken its senses.”

”Alright…” Chad said as he immediately used the Dark Mist.

The Creature is still squirming about as its muscles keep expanding and retracting to form a much more horrible appearance.

Nevertheless, what Chad was worrying about was the fact that the Curses theyʼd cast on the creature were starting to dissipate at a faster rate!

The rotten flesh caused by the Flesh Bane had also started separating from the Creatureʼs body as it formed a new flesh to cover its chest.

The Creature wasnʼt just transforming, it is reforming its body and removing its curses in the process!

Furthermore, it had waited on them until they exhausted their energy!

”Donʼt falter… Valeʼs Ghost Hands is in the Advance Realm… Even if it canʼt kill the creature, it can suppress it for quite some time. Aubrey will use her Dire Chains once more… Neil, stop acting like a loser and used your Darkness Coil!”

”Ugh… Fine!” Neil decided to follow these people for now but he already started stepping back as he would certainly escape out of the Magic Circle if they were in danger.

The Darkness Coil was another version of Dire Chains but instead of focusing on the suppression effect, it is used to capture targets. Furthermore, it is very effective if used against other practitioners who werenʼt practicing the Dark Arts.

Under Leonoreʼs command, everyone was able to collect themselves…

”Graaahhhh!”

The Creature finally completed its transformation. It had become taller and its arms had become bulkier. Its huge palms can even cover their entire head!

It suddenly pounced towards them targeting Vale who was controlling the three Ghost Hands that were still grabbing on its body…

The Dark Mist was useless!

The others who didnʼt want to participate anymore had no choice but to work together. If Vale was defeated, they would be next!

Several Ghost Hands were summoned once more but it was even more useless now. The creature just waved its hands and the Ghost Hands were instantly destroyed except for the ones that Vale summoned.

They were still clinging to its body no matter what the creature does.

Boom! Boom!

The Evil Creature slammed his hands on the ground creating a huge shockwave as soon as it had gotten near them… Most of them were out of balance as their spells got canceled.

”Weʼre doomed...” Neil said as he already saw his fate. His Darkness Coil was ineffective…

The difference in their strength was just too much!

The Creatureʼs next action was brutal… It started punching the students and those who werenʼt able to dodge in time were sent flying to the other side of the Magic Circle.

”Ack!”

”I give---”

”Save me.”

Bam!

With another wave of its hands, finally, Leonore was hit… However, instead of being thrown away out of the magic circle like everyone else, something unexpected happened.

Leonoreʼs necklace suddenly glowed brightly. A blue light blocked the Creatureʼs hands and Leonore was unscathed while the Creature was in pain!

”Graaah!”

Its right arm seemed to have been struck by lightning!

Vale realized that Leonore has this Mystical Item as her life-saving treasure so she wasnʼt afraid to fight at all.

He glanced at the others while in his Phantasm State and confirmed that some of them has Mystical Items on their bodies. He doesnʼt even have one!

As the Creature realized that Leonore was hard to kill, it shifted on Vale instead…

This time, Vale no longer hesitated as he utilized the Ghost Hands not to press down on the creature but to attack!

The large Ghost Hands suddenly turned illusory and smaller as they swiftly attacked the creatureʼs demonic eyes. It only happened in a split second.

Psshhh---

To Valeʼs surprise, the attack was so successful and blinded the creature in instant!

”You dare?!” The Evil Creatureʼs deep and demonic voice resounded throughout the whole room as Vale took its vision.

Vale felt a chill on his body as he realized that the creature has now placed its full attention on him.

Whoosh~

In an instant, the creature appeared behind Vale like a real ghost… Vale didnʼt have the time to recall his Ghost Hands!

Aubrey, Warren, and the others tried attacking the creature with their spells but it was simply impossible to injure the creature with their current set of Spells.

In the end, seeing that Vale was about to get smashed, Warren gritted his teeth as he tore what seems like a talisman as soon as the creature was about to land its attack.

Then, the Creature seemed to have been smashed by a huge and invisible fist as it crashed toward its cage.

Boom!

The attack was so strong but none of them celebrated. They can still feel the fluctuation of energy coming from the Creature…
