A moment later, the meeting ends.
Mu You found himself once again in the desert within the bottle after a shift of light.
However, as soon as he appeared, he felt a bolt of red lightning rapidly flash towards him. Yet, before it struck him, it was blocked by the Tenacious Light and dissipated like a bubble.
Of course, given his lengthy absence, it seemed improbable that the black-robed people had only prepared this single ’welcome gift’ for him.
Right when the red lightning disappeared, he found himself encapsulated within a large-scaled electrical trap beneath his feet.
Despite teleporting away immediately, countless interwoven lightning bolts automatic-ally chased after him, instantly soaking his entire body.
Amidst convulsions and dizziness, Mu You saw his HP plummet by over 1900 points. Given his current constitution was only 34 points, corresponding to only 3400 HP in total, he had lost more than half in an instant.
This was with the attributes doubled by his Vampire skin. If he were exposed to daylight and had regular attributes, he would be a dead man by now.
points, even without the oppression brought by the rank buff, the original magic damage was close to 1000 points. This looked like it was merely a common intermediate-level magic, where the harm of general intermediate-level magic only lingers around 200 to 300. Here, it was nearly quadrupled...
Mu You could not help but admire; truly worthy of a wizard with an intelligence value over 100, the enhancement brought about by magic was outrageous. Moreover, he undoubtedly had some equipment that tremendously increased magic damage.
Luckily, Mu You had anticipated the ambush waiting for him outside and had told Vivian in advance to hide in the bag. She was not able to withstand a battle of this scope against witches.
At this moment, the black-robed figure opposite did not rush to strike after casting the spell. Instead, he looked at Mu You with a cold sneer: "Oh? You dare to show yourself so soon? I thought you planned to hide inside for a few days."
Mu You didn’t react to him. The meeting had just ended, and the backup from the others hadn’t been activated yet.
Moreover, the previous attack didn’t injure his heart. Once he lost blood, the Butcher Wolf’s ability would automatically kick in, swiftly restoring his HP.
Mu You quickly swallowed a small recovery potion that he had obtained at the front line while retreating rapidly, trying to create distance.
Seeing Mu You start to run immediately after appearing, the black-robed figure sneered, "It seems I need to make you behave first."
The black-robed figure lifted his magic wand and began to cast a spell from a distance.
The very next second, the entire space within the bottle was covered by intense electrical flashes and thunderous roars.
This guy seemed to be a mage who mainly utilized the thunder system, his attack range was unreasonably large. In this somewhat cramped world inside the bottle, his coverage was almost airtight.
Mu You could only dodge continuously by teleporting. However, many thunder system spells had built-in tracking making it difficult to completely evade.
He took off the Heart-guard Mirror from his chest, thinking this guy was primarily causing magic damage, while the Heart-guard Mirror could only defend against physical damage. Besides, using the Heart-guard Mirror in the Star Spirit World, where you could revive, felt a bit wasteful.
In the midst of the thundering and flashing, Mu You managed to evade the best he could, but still got hit several times. His heart inevitably was injured, and he lost the Butcher Wolf’s recovery ability quickly, ultimately his HP reducing to zero.
The moment he died, Mu You felt his consciousness fading briefly. When he blinked his eyes, he found himself at another corner of the bottle.
[You have revived, your HP is fully recovered, lifespan -1, experience -10.]
The notification in his mind indicated that he had undergone a revival.
At this moment, the black-robed figure opposite sneered, and the magic wand in his hand was once again pointed at him.
Immediately, another swath of lightning thundered towards him.
Thankfully, by this time, the support from others had arrived. Mu You instantly sensed five other secret technique crystals in his mind, each covered with a different magic card.
Together with his own, a total of six crystals were available, encompassing eighteen different black magic spells that he could use!
Mu You quickly scanned through. In addition to the secret technique he had previously obtained, there were several new secret techniques.
The first were Thunder Shock and Fire Giant, both of which were high-level black magic spells that had once been exchanged by the Lion and the Gemini.
Then there were the Snowball Curse, Blaze Fire Circle, and the black magic version of the Silent Curse. Mu You didn’t have time to check the effects, but he knew they were undoubtedly much stronger than the original ones.
In addition, there were several black magic spells he had never seen before: Ice Wall Technique, Summon Netherworld Demon Child, Ice Armor Technique, Dazzle Curse, and Mana Drain.
Seeing the opponent’s multiple lightning attacks rushing towards him, Mu You didn’t bother to dodge; he first did a quick reversal of time about sixty times in place and thoroughly checked the effects of all the new secret techniques.
After checking, he had a complete battle plan in his mind: he was going to compete with the opponent in terms of the storage of magic power!
After reviving in the Star Spirit World, one’s HP would fully recover and all negative states on the body would be eliminated.
However, there were still some things that could not be restored upon revival, such as magic power and physical strength.
That is, if you had used up all your magic power or became physically exhausted right before revival, you would still be in the same state after revival.
Therefore, in the battles of the Star Spirit World, emptying an opponent’s HP bar does not necessarily mean victory. With revival, as long as you have enough lifespan, you essentially have an endless supply of HP.
The real challenge lies in replenishing magic power and physical strength, especially for the man opposite who was a standard mage. Magic damage constituted 95% of his output—if he could find a way to completely deplete his magic power, a mage without magic power would suffer a significant drop in combat power.
