Chapter 142
After hearing the humongous and hideous flesh and blood being spouted, not only was the fiery Fire Mage Karl furious, but the others were even more furious after doubting their own ears. They couldn't help but laugh out loud from the anger.
"Are you trying to humiliate us? Humiliate the noble Mages?! "
Five spells bombarded the Virus Clone at the same time, turning it into ashes. After that, Karl said in a gloomy voice, "It seems that the rat is afraid. We should be very close to it now. I will tear it apart no matter who it is!"

Adam hated meaningless battles, and he did not want to kill his own kind. Since The Fifth Element Holy Tower had given the order for the final battle, it meant that the trial had come to an end. Everything he had prepared was to end this trial ahead of time, which made him feel a little bored. Now, instead of killing these new Mages who came to cause trouble for him, he might as well force them away and increase his strength for the final battle on the other side.
The Devil came to Adam's side, feeling wronged. "Master, they have killed the Virus Clone. They don't seem to want to leave at all. They even said that they will tear you apart."
Adam was commanding the Infected to place the metal pillars on the energy nodes of the outer layer of the magic circle. After hearing the Devil's words, he fell silent for a moment. Then he said helplessly, "If that's the case, we have no choice but to kill them."
The Devil could swear that it did not distort any of the words that Adam told it to convey.
Adam could also swear that he truly wanted to avoid unnecessary battles and deaths. Once the magic array was activated, it was impossible for him to predict just how powerful it would be. However, what he was certain of was that based on his observations and analysis of the new mages' strength, Adam's carefully prepared railgun was definitely not something that they could withstand.
However, Adam was not a person who would stretch out his neck to be slaughtered. He had already done his best by reminding them once. Since they did not stop trying to persuade him, he would just have to rely on his own means.
Adam ordered the Devil to command the infected to continue blocking their path and report their location. Meanwhile, he walked through every energy node of the magic circle and activated the runes engraved within.
The Ether crystal began to burn, and the majestic magic power connected all the nodes along the energy channels. A magic storm appeared within the range of the magic circle, and all the elements in the world were suppressed and transformed into a magnetic field at the same time, which then generated a huge Lorentz force.
In the World of Sorcerers, all the lands outside the World of Sorcerers were not blessed by the World Guardian, and the same was true for Ceylon Island. The space here was relatively fragile. As the magic circle was activated, an indescribable sound rang in Adam's ears. It was the sound of space whimpering.
Adam had temporarily seized control of the devil's body through the contract. After fusing with Garfers, all of the infected bodies had become his eyes and ears. Under the surveillance of hundreds of thousands of eyes, the five ambushers had nowhere to hide even the tiniest bit.
When the energy accumulation reached a certain limit, Adam replaced his emotional thinking with logical thinking. All threads were overloaded, calculating the possible changes in every coordinate parameter in the space where the attackers were.
"Railgun locked on target. Firing countdown. Five, four, three, two, one …"

"Be careful. The infected seem to have changed again."
Although it was a little contradictory, Karl was arrogant but not stupid. In other words, no one who could participate in the war trial was an idiot. The moment the infected were taken over by Adam, he sensed that something was wrong. While controlling the flying posture, he said solemnly, "Their attacks are even crazier, and they seem to be spying on us."
"That's right. If the infected just now were just crazy sub-agents, I can see the existence of rationality in the eyes of the infected now. They must be controlled by someone."
"Neat and orderly, advancing and retreating. It's like a mortal battle formation. They want to keep us here."
Karl looked down at the merit bracelet. There were still five dots representing the five of them, which meant that they were still a certain distance away from Adam. "They're not stopping us, they're keeping us here. Why did it suddenly become like this …"
The others heard Karl's voice and felt a little confused. Although the infected were constantly attacking and harassing them, they were not as resolute as now. It seemed that they did not care about their own losses.
This question was related to the Devil and Adam's thoughts. Adam really did not care about the lives of the infected, but the Devil was strangely reluctant. After fusing with Garfers, every infected was like its child. The Devil could not bear to order its children to die.
Karl suddenly raised his head and muttered to himself, "Unless he's already targeting us. The reason why he's keeping us here is to kill us with long-range magic."
The other four could not help but laugh. Not to mention a mere apprentice, even new sorcerers like them did not have the ability to cast magic beyond the range of the merit bracelet. If that rat who only dared to hide in the dark really had such strength, why would he use such a despicable method like infecting himself with viruses to earn points?
"Karl, you're thinking too much. I think he's just scared and wants to use this method to make us give up on hunting him down. Even if these infected changed, what can they do? They're still so weak …"
The sorcerer's words came to an abrupt end. No one interrupted him. He only saw the 'bullet' coming from the distant sky. The huge amount of magic attached to the bullet pulled the surrounding space unpredictably. While the bullet was still far away, they could already feel the bone-chilling coldness from the depths of their souls.
"We're going to die. If we're hit, we're definitely going to die!"
The four new sorcerers growled at the same time. After leveling up, the sorcerer's armor that had undergone a qualitative change was attached with the strongest defensive magic they could use. The elite apprentice pressed his hand on the active sealing crystal in front of his chest.
The four sorcerers each had a teleportation scroll, but no one dared to tear it open. Using teleportation in such an unstable situation would only cause them to be annihilated by the violent spatial turbulence and the Void Ether storm.
"Everyone, run!"
Karl laughed bitterly. His body was surrounded by flames, like a ball of fire flying to the side. At the same time, other than the elite apprentice who chose to level up at this moment, the other three sorcerers were surrounded by elemental particles and fled in all directions.
However, it was useless. The speed of the giant bullet fired by the railgun was beyond everyone's imagination. It was still in the sky a few seconds ago, but now it was right in front of them. All the possible directions and routes they could choose to escape and were all calculated by Adam. It could be said that the moment they saw the railgun, they were already doomed.
