Rise of the Dark Witch

Watching Roja not only dodge his attack at the moment of his sneak attack, he could also take the opportunity to attack him at the blind corner of his defense.

"My brain, reflexes, and timing are all good. What a pity. A mere first-class apprentice who has just passed the wizard trial dares to dance in front of me?"

Maven sneered and stretched out his right hand to grab the big sword that Roja stabbed at him.

Click!

The tip of the sword penetrated Maven's hand, and half of the sword blade stabbed out from the back of his hand.

The dark oscillating power surged out from the blade and spread along Maven's arm toward his body.

After a while, Maven's whole body was flashing with black oscillating power, and his tough bark-like skin crackled and cracked under the oscillating power.

But Maven didn't care.

"Roots entangled!"

The five fingers of Maven's right hand grew like old tree roots, tightly entangled the holy sword Lion Heart Roar, and stabbed into Roja's wrist holding the sword.

The roots transformed from the fingers grew in the flesh and blood of Roja's body, frantically absorbing Roja's vitality and magic power.

Feeling the power absorbed from Roja's body, breaking through a thousand units per second, Maven smiled cruelly.

"Boy, the first time you see us, you should turn around and run away!"

"Now?"

"Become my nourishment!"

Maven's root entanglement can absorb thousands of units of energy per second. If there is no countermeasure, even a pure-blooded third-level apprentice with a magic power of 10,000 units will be sucked to death by him within ten seconds.

Does Roja have any countermeasures?

Feeling the energy flowing continuously from Roja's body, it was obvious that Roja did not have the ability to deal with this move.

Since you can't break the entanglement of his roots, if you are caught by him, there will only be death!

"One second, two seconds, three seconds..."

Maven happily counted the hours of Roja's death struggle.

He estimated in his mind, "With the strength of this new wizard apprentice, the maximum magic power is 2,000 units, and the vitality is 300 units, which means that I only need three seconds at most..."

However, three seconds have already passed!

When the time came to five seconds, Maven felt something was wrong and panicked.

"Where did he get so much magic power?"

"There's something wrong with this man!"

Although Maven now had a huge advantage, his rich combat experience over the years allowed him to decisively give up his advantage and retreat.

Maven cut off his right hand while retreating.

As soon as his right hand was severed from his arm, it immediately grew crazily, as if the tens or hundreds of years it took for a sapling to grow into a towering tree were shortened to just one second.

The thick roots of his arms surged towards Roya, wrapping him up and binding him tightly.

Maven sacrificed an arm and turned it into a cage to trap Roja.

Marvin believed that unless the opponent was a third-class apprentice from the bipolar hunter clan with strength far exceeding his own level, it would take at least two seconds to break through his cage.

Two seconds were enough for him to distance himself from Roja and reach a safe place.

However, the uneasiness in Maven's heart not only did not disappear, but became even more intense.

Sudden!

"Moo——"

A loud roar of an elephant echoed through the sky from Roja.

Then, Maven watched in horror as the root cage he sacrificed his right hand to transform into was easily shattered by Roja in less than a second.

Too dark!

A huge half-human, half-elephant figure enveloped him.

In front of that huge figure over three meters tall, Maven felt that he was so small.

He has fought fierce battles with huge monsters, and he has hunted legendary monsters that are tens of meters high, but this is the first time that a monster can give him such a huge sense of oppression!

"Bloodline Demonic Body?"

"Could it be that you are also a third-class apprentice?"

"How is it possible that a new wizard who has just passed the wizard trial can become a third-class apprentice in less than two years?"

Maven asked in disbelief while attacking the giant elephant transformed by Roja mercilessly.

Facing Maven's attack, Roja opened his mouth.

"Thunder and thunder!"

The elephant, which could bite a person in one bite, opened its huge mouth wide, and the beam of light condensed by the dark oscillating power shot out along with the roar of the giant elephant, hitting Maven directly.

"What?"

"Even if you are a third-class apprentice, it is impossible..."

The power of this move used by Roja was so powerful that it could easily shatter Maven's tough body.

But what shocked Maven even more was the magic power contained in Roja's thunderous move.

The magic power exceeds 10,000 units!

The bloodline demon body only allows the third-class apprentice to transform into the form of the monster or demon god corresponding to the bloodline, which greatly enhances the physique and makes the bloodline talent more powerful than in human form.

It is absolutely impossible to increase magic power out of thin air!

Before Maven could figure out what was going on, his body was turned into hundreds of pieces and exploded under the bombardment of thunder and lightning.

Even for a third-class apprentice, if his body is broken into hundreds of pieces, he is generally certain to die.

However, Maven's body was broken, no blood flowed out, and no internal organs could be seen flying in the air.

Instead, pieces of broken flesh and blood sprouted roots similar to plant roots, running quickly on the ground and escaping into the distance.

With only half of Maven's head left, he used the roots born from the crack to escape while cursing Roja with hatred.

"Boy, I remember you!"

"I will never forget the hatred today. I will come back to you one day!"

"If I can't kill you, I will kill your relatives! Kill your descendants! Kill your friends!"

"I'm going to make you regret taking action against me!"

Under Maven's angry scolding and curse, Roja moved.

Seeing Roja chasing him, Maven's face suddenly twisted with fear, and he immediately accelerated his escape.

However, the fear on Maven's face was just an act.

As an apprentice of a plant wizard, he has extremely tenacious vitality and has undergone many transformations to make his body more like a plant.

The bodies of other third-class apprentices were blown into hundreds of pieces. Most of them would die, but not him.

When ordinary people fight him, they will definitely think that if the body is broken, they will not die, but as long as the head is destroyed, they will definitely die, right?

As long as we catch up and destroy the head that keeps talking and cursing and running away like crazy, we can definitely kill him, right?

Does not!

His life core can be hidden in any part of his body or in any piece of flesh at will.

He uses his head to speak and curse at his enemies, just to lure the enemies to chase his head so that his body and flesh with the core of his life can escape safely.

During his decades as a wizard's apprentice, every time he encountered a formidable enemy, he relied on his escape skills to survive.

Even his teacher, the Mandolin Wizard, who is an official wizard, praised his escape technique, saying that absolutely no one under the official wizard could lock his life core from the numerous flesh and blood fragments.

Since there is no way to discover where his life core is, there are only three ways to kill him.

One is to rely on luck!

One is to use large area damage!

The last method is to use barriers or props or other methods to trap him and then kill him!

Although Roja's strength was extraordinary, Maven didn't think Roja had the strength to kill him.

In Maven's heart, she was happy that he could survive.

At the same time, he felt disappointed that he had lost the qualification to compete for the Thousand Resentments Fruit.

"What?"

"W-Where are you chasing?"

"Don't, don't, don't come over..."

The flesh and blood hiding the core of Maven's life was caught up by Roja and crushed to pieces!

Until his death, Marvin didn't know how Roja found the core of his life and how he discovered his secret.

As Maven's life core was destroyed, Maven's flesh and blood, which was running in all directions a second ago, suddenly stopped.

The body fragments that were like wood before gradually returned to their original form after Maven's death, and became human flesh and blood again.

I saw body fragments belonging to Maven, a third-class apprentice, scattered all around, and the blood dyed the ground red.
