(From MC's perspective)
Inside the cabin,
pαпᵈα-noνɐ1·сoМ Feeling sudden heart palpitation, I realized the fight is now getting intense. From the corner, I saw the giant hammer. Now there is no protective barrier, if the hammer falls then the artifact will suffer huge damage.
My eyes gleamed with a twinkle. The next second, I disappeared from the spot and appeared inside the Gregor mansion. The time flow rate is set by default inside the mansion.
So that I can see what's happening outside in real-time. I'm slowly starting to get used to the Gregor mansion. But still, the magic functions of the mansion amaze me.
Then my gaze set on the screen. I see the fight between the dark league member and Elder John. As I had expected, the power of artifacts is something.
Elder John successfully locked the person in the position. But after a couple of seconds, his complexion turned worse.
Seeing that I furrowed my eyebrows. If this goes on I can't hide. A frown appeared on my face but I still didn't go outside.
Suddenly changes started to take place. The dark league member shot his giant hammer at the cabin. "What a vicious mind?" I grumbled.
From the beginning, the dark league member has been showing patience.
He is not in a hurry to kill me. Maybe this might be the confidence of a level-6 wizard. I ponder deeply about my next move. If Elder John faints from mana consumption, then I'll show up and fight against the dark league member.
Then there will be no problem for me to hide some secrets. After a recent gravitational magic upgrade, I feel I can take on the level-6 wizard. So after figuring it out, I continued to watch their fight.
...
Outside,
John Meyers reached close to the giant hammer. But before he could dispatch his other trump card. The insect old man appeared in front of him and raised his fist against him.
John Meyers's expression turned ugly. He failed to stop the giant hammer. But he knows the grade of the artifact, it won't get destroyed under a single attack.
As long as Vincent stays inside he will be safe.
For a moment he let go of the artifact and blocked the incoming fist of the insect old man.
The insect old man sneered. He saw through the guardian's thoughts. It will be a matter of seconds before the mouse dies from his hands.
Swish!
The giant hammer reached the target and collided heavily with the flying artifact.
Boom!
A huge shock wave swept everywhere.
Then a massive dent appeared above the cabin. The entire cabin almost squashed. But it didn't break completely.
But from the impact, the flying artifact lost control of its flight and it is going downwards.
On the other hand, John Meyers tried to block his fist. But he was thrown backward by the force. What a brute force! His forearms were numb.
But the next second, he noticed the changes. His expression turned dark after seeing the situation at the flying artifact.
"Not good," He grumbled.
He decided to take away Vincent right now. The situation already reached the bottom line of his but still, there is no appearance of reinforcement. So he won't be foolishly waiting for them anymore.
When he rushed towards the downwards-spiraling flying artifact. The insect old man dashed towards as well. But instead of going towards the guardian, his goal is the little mouse this time.
As a level-6 wizard, his speed is faster than a guardian's. When he reached close to the deck, he felt bad. His heart skips a beat as he realizes he couldn't move his muscles anymore.
"What happened now?" His heart set off storms. He knows that the guardian has no mana left to mobilize the artifact. So where is this coming from?
Before he could do something, he felt another bad premonition.
A bell-like laughter echoed throughout the area, "Ha..Ha...Ha.."
"To think the dark league has sent a bug man this time, they are becoming more shameless these days," the voice added further.
"Court death," the insect old man threatened in anger. He hates people calling him a bug man.
On the other hand, John Meyers stabilizes his movements. After hearing the voice, "Why is this sound familiar?" He mumbled under his breath.
The next second, the image comes to his mind.
"It's her," John Meyers' eyes lit up with surprise.
Then he saw a triangular artifact appearing above the insect old man. Seeing that familiar imprison artifact his heart skips a beat.
"Kate Cohens," He said to himself. Seeing the imprisoned artifact, he is even 100% sure. Looks like the Academy has sent her to support us.
John Meyer's heart eases down a little. The imprisoned artifact can lock the level-6 wizard. So the fate of the insect old man is sealed.
On the other hand, the insect old man began to sweat. "Who are you?" He asked in a deep voice. His expression turned gloomy. Now he understands that their reinforcement has come.
Now it is difficult to snatch the mirror artifact from the guardian. Then he realizes that there is no sound whatsoever from the little mouse. Is he dead? He frowned.
The next second, a woman dressed in a black tuxedo appeared in front of him. The insect old man immediately recognized the identity of the person. His face filled with horror.
He had never thought this woman would personally come here. The artifact in her hands is more dangerous than the mirror artifact.
His mind sprang up in action. He forgot about the task, he wanted to flee from this place as soon as possible. Once firmly locked, it will be impossible to escape from the hold of the artifact.
At the same time, women in black tuxedos glanced at John Meyers. Seeing his haggard expression, her pink lips rose slightly.
"Looks like you are not doing well," She asked in a calm tone. But her voice contains a hint of magic.
John Meyers smiled in response before moving towards the flying boat artifact. He wants to see Vincent. It is not easy to escape from the attack of a giant hammer.
Kate Cohens chuckled and said, "That kid is doing fine, you can start to recover your mana power."
Hearing that John Meyers stopped midway and nodded at her.
Inside the cabin,
"Phew," I exhaled in relief, laying on the ground. Thanks to the system, I noticed her presence earlier. Otherwise, I would have stayed inside the Gregor mansion.
I closed my eyes to pretend unconscious. But my heart is not calm at all. Damn! Who is she? She seems more powerful than Elder John.
She suppressed the level-6 wizard in one move. From their conversation, I see Elder John and the women were old acquaintances. There is no need to be afraid anymore.
Right now, respect for Elder John increased in my heart. Encountering a bad situation, the first thing to do was to call for support. Which turned out right at this moment.
I'm glad that I don't have to expose my strength right now.
Outside,
Kate Cohens operated her imprison artifact. The triangular artifact appeared above the insect old man and the next movement enveloped him completely.
From beginning to end, he couldn't move his muscles. After imprisoning him, she further operated the artifact. The triangular artifact shrunk in size and finally fell on her palms.
If one can look closely one can see the miniature person locked inside the imprisoned artifact. He is none other than the insect old man.
Kate Cohens then placed the artifact inside her storage bracelet before turning towards the smashed cabin.
She gently waved her hand. The mana breath released from her palms easily swept away the broken debris.
Now the broken cabin can be seen. When she spotted the appearance of the kid lying on the ground. Her eyes lit up with surprise.
"Kid, you can stop acting now. I can feel your fluctuations," She said with a chuckle.
On the other hand, her words rang like thunder in my ears. Scary! My acting was exposed in front of her. Thankfully, I exited the Gregor mansion earlier.
When I stood up from the ground. I noticed the flying artifact is already on the land. And the broken debris is nowhere to see. I spotted Elder John nearby who is recovering his mana power.
"So, you are that seed candidate?" A voice came from behind. I feel goosebumps all over my body.
I turned around and saw the appearance of the middle-aged woman. Seeing that, she is looking at me. I replied in a calm tone, "Hi, elder. I'm Vincent Carey."
A quick glint flashed in Kate Cohens' eyes. Her eyes observed Vincent from head to toe. She senses the breath of a level-2 wizard from him.
"What happened earlier?" She said in her heart. Before locking the bug man, she found some abnormal fluctuations inside the cabin.
But to save Vincent, she confronted the bug man first. Because of that, she failed to grasp what happened earlier.
Then shaking her head, she looked at Vincent and said, "Level-2 rank is good. But it's not enough, my little apprentice can easily defeat you right now."
