Chapter 130: Chapter 130: Bloodline Power

Bell's approach seemed simple and brutal, but it was also more direct and effective. Using ordinary methods again would struggle to break through the Water Shield's defense, so it was better to directly leverage the advantage of Dark Attribute Magic. Moments later, a massive Dark Magic Ball took shape, finally flying directly towards Duke. Duke did not underestimate this Dark Magic Ball and immediately conjured several Water Shields, distributing them in front. The massive Dark Magic Ball instantly collided with the first Water Shield, which dissipated after a brief hold. However, the Dark Magic Ball also shrank significantly, and then headed toward the second Water Shield. This time, the Dark Magic Ball was unable to break through the second Water Shield, getting completely blocked by it. A large amount of energy was absorbed before it dissipated. Duke laughed, "Is that all? I even prepared four Water Shields." He distributed four Water Shields in front, preparing to gradually counteract and weaken the energy of the Dark Magic Ball. He hadn't expected whether the Dark Magic Ball was too weak or his Water Shield was too strong. It only consumed one Water Shield to neutralize this wave of attack. Then Duke stomped forward, swiftly getting close to Bell. Once in range, he conjured a Water Arrow directly aimed at Bell's head. His Spiritual Power was inferior to Bell's, allowing him to effectively control spells at a smaller range, which was a disadvantage and required him to close the distance proactively. Seeing this, a ring on Bell's hand emitted a milky white light, and then a thin film of this light covered his entire body. The Water Arrow arrived subsequently, and since Bell dodged slightly, the Water Arrow only hit his chest. Yet the energy contained within still exploded, and its corrosive nature continued to erode the light film over Bell's body. Bell appeared somewhat disheveled by this attack, with his chest clothes becoming tattered and the energy film significantly thinned. The intensity of the Water Arrow took him by surprise, being fundamentally different from the ordinary Water Arrow Technique. The strength of Duke's Water Arrow Technique, bolstered by Three-headed Dog saliva, reached a level fourteen, while ordinary Water Arrows were impressive at level four. This data was based on his strength as a Second-class Wizard Apprentice. With greater Spiritual Power, the data would correspondingly improve. Duke didn't give Bell a moment to rest, continuously forming Water Arrows to attack relentlessly. Bell consecutively used three defensive Demonized Items, resolving these magic attacks one by one. He seemed to lose confidence in his defensive spells on his own, resorting directly to using the Demonized Items on him. Duke's seemingly ordinary Water Arrow Technique strength was too high, far beyond what an ordinary Second-class Wizard Apprentice could conjure, and even many First-class Wizard Apprentices couldn't effortlessly use spells at over ten degrees. This was completely unanticipated by Bell, catching him somewhat off guard. As the situation evolved, many in the audience began to reveal expressions of ecstatic joy. Based on the current trend, Duke genuinely had the potential to win this duel. In the Gladiatorial Arena, Bell nearly retreated while dealing with and countering Duke's attacks. Duke had to lament, this guy was indeed rich; who knows how many Demonized Items he had on him. Bell seemed somewhat annoyed, being suppressed throughout the battle, making him feel quite stifled: "Originally, I didn't want to use this move, that form is just too ugly." As he spoke, his skin began revealing some black hues that spread across his body, turning even his entire face black. Simultaneously, Bell's back began to bulge as if something was trying to break out. With a couple of squelching sounds, a pair of bat wings emerged behind Bell, and with a flap, he levitated off the ground. Duke looked up to see that Bell's face had changed beyond recognition yet still retained some original features, though now it had a pair of fangs and a tightly shut vertical eye in the center of his forehead.
