The Genius Mage

Chapter 203: A Battle to the Death

Parker narrowed his eyes and looked coldly at the girl in front of him.

“I didn’t expect that you would still have the energy to resist at this point in time. Could it be that you’re really planning to give up on your good friend?”

Audrey did not say anything. She was very clear about the strength of the man in front of her. After all, she had been suppressed by him during the trial. If it was not for the appearance of the Garuda, she might have already been heavily injured.

It seemed like it would be very difficult to rescue Kate and escape unscathed.

Audrey took a gentle breath and tried her best to calm her breathing. Under such circumstances, only by being calm could she do everything to the best of her ability.

She was thinking about whether she should take out her bottle of potion. When she had made it, she had intended to use this trump card when she met an opponent she could not defeat in the arena. However, she had not expected the situation to change so quickly.

“Audrey, you’re a smart person. If it’s more complicated, I don’t need to say more.” Parker clearly did not have the patience to waste any more time with her. “As a trade, you’ll apply to leave the Templar Knights first. In return, I’ll return Kate unharmed.”

“Heh.” Audrey curled the corners of her lips in disdain. “Do you really think that I’ll believe what you say as the leader of the Carol Association?”

“It’s up to you whether you believe it or not,” Parker said indifferently.

Then, he turned around and was about to leave. In the next moment, ice crystals covered the entire alley.

“In the name of the snow goddess, let everything in the surroundings be permanently frozen.” A chant sounded. The temperature of the ice crystals was extremely low. Even Klein, who was outside, could feel the terrifying temperature.

Klein looked at the alley that was covered in ice blue with great worry.

“What should we do, Klein? Why don’t the two of us go in instead? Otherwise…”

Ross spoke with some worry. However, before she could finish her words, a whip landed fiercely in front of them.

“You can try. As long as you dare to go in, I will kill you here.” Daisy waved the long whip in her hand arrogantly.

Klein looked at her coldly.

If he wanted to go in and help, he first had to solve the problem in front of him.

After all, he was not good at fighting, but the current situation was a bit urgent. In that case…

Crane handed the folding fan in his hand to Ross, who was beside him, for safekeeping.

“Take care of my things. Leave this person in front of you to me.”

Daisy curled the corners of her lips in disdain. “You think you can take care of me? Why don’t you see if you have the ability to do so?”

However, in the next moment, she could no longer say such words.

At the same time, the battle in the alley had reached a climax. Audrey was used to long-range attacks, but the space in the alley was too small. She could only barely condense ice crystals into a small area under her feet before standing on it.

The fragile ice crystals could not bear her weight and would soon shatter. Audrey could only change her position at any time and try her best to keep a distance from Parker.

Clearly, Parker was not a pushover either. He had long guessed Audrey’s intentions. He stood where he was and formed a fist with his right hand, his combat aura slowly circulating around his body.

Following that, intense energy burst forth, forcefully driving away from the cold air in the surroundings.

Audrey was injured by this sudden attack. She immediately reached out to hold her arm. One had to know that even if she was so far away from that person, she could still be hit. One could imagine how powerful this attack was.

“Let me give you a piece of advice. Don’t go against me. As long as I’m serious, half of the city will turn into ashes.” Parker only smiled coldly. The way he looked at Audrey was as emotionless as looking at an ant.

Audrey did not respond. She just raised her hand and threw out an ice sword. The ice sword tore through the air and flew fiercely toward Parker.

Parker only turned his head sideways and dodged it effortlessly. However, what was unexpected was that after the ice sword missed, it actually split into two and flew straight toward the original route.

Parker clearly did not expect such an outcome. He was not able to dodge in time, and a bloody scar was instantly drawn on his cheek.

He gritted his teeth fiercely. “Looks like you don’t intend to compromise. In that case, I don’t have to be polite with you.”

Audrey did not say anything. She just looked at him quietly. She was ready to cast her next spell.

At this moment, a surge of combat aura attacked. The ice crystals under Audrey’s feet instantly turned into fragments. She subconsciously condensed a new layer of ice crystals, trying to stabilize herself in midair.

However, she did not expect that the range of that combat aura was too large. It directly tore apart everything in the surroundings. The advantage that Audrey had painstakingly built was ended just like that.

Audrey clenched her teeth tightly, thinking about what she should do in her heart.

After all, the difference in strength was too great. In addition, Kate was still behind. She did not dare to use a spell that had too much lethality.

Audrey looked at Kate. He was lying on the ground, looking as if he was still unconscious.

Seeing that Parker was ready to continue attacking, Audrey clenched her fists by her side. At this critical moment, another aura suddenly appeared on the battlefield between the two of them.
