Rubik’s Cube of Heavens - Chapter 144

Chapter 144: Attack!

There was something at the corner of the corridor ahead!

At this moment, there was nothing else but the basilisk that could make this kind of rubbing and moving sound!

Listening to the approaching rubbing sound, Coven hesitated for a moment, then turned around and returned to the dormitory.

As he walked, he was puzzled.

With his talent in magic, how could he be attacked by the basilisk?

Didn’t the basilisk only attack the mixed-blood?

Could it be… that he didn’t have the bloodline of this world?

There was no time to think about it because the speed of the snake behind him suddenly accelerated, and the friction sound in the wall became louder and louder.

Coven was now in a very long corridor, and there was no place to hide.

It seemed that there was no way to avoid colliding with the snake.

Realizing this, Coven suddenly stood still, raised his wand, and pointed to the stone brazier at the side.

Under the effect of the Transfiguration Spell, the brazier was instantly extinguished and quickly deformed, turning into a metal round shield with a snap of the fingers.

The diameter of the round shield was about 2.5 feet, and there were hard cone-shaped thorns on the curved surface.

After waving it twice, it felt quite convenient.

Then, Coven pointed his wand to the ground and whispered, “Gravel!”

A magic ray hit the ground under Coven’s feet, turning the originally flat stone-ground into a small piece of gravel.

Coven maintained his magic output and then raised his wand forward.

As he moved, the pieces of the ground in front of him turned into gravel and quickly spread into the distance.

Then, Coven quickly looked around and memorized the data of the surrounding environment in his mind. He waved his wand and extinguished all the candlesticks on the left wall, leaving only the candlelight on the right wall.

There was no time to prepare more because the winding sound of the snake monster was very close. Finally, it stopped at a pipe passage more than ten meters in front of Coven.

He took a deep breath and raised the round shield in front of him. He squatted down slightly and pointed the wand in his right hand forward.

Silence.

The snake monster was like an ambush hunter, and it did not move for a long time.

Coven was very patient, maintaining a gentle breath, and focused on exerting his six senses to the best of his ability.

After more than a minute, the snake monster finally lost its patience and crawled out of the passage.

The huge snake body came into contact with the gravel ground set up by Coven, causing the sound of the snake monster crawling to become louder suddenly.

The fire on the right wall reflected the shadow of the snake monster on the left wall.

Coven slightly moved the shield so that his vision could not touch the snake monster’s eyes but could see the shadow on the left wall.

Listening to the sound of the snake monster’s scales rubbing against the gravel ground, he looked at the huge shadow on the wall that was gradually approaching him.

Coven quickly took the formula into his mind and began to calculate. Soon, he built a three-dimensional model in his mind.

At the same time, he couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. The ‘Gun Fighting’ before his transmigration hadn’t been for nothing, allowing him to have his current powerful computing power.

At this time, the snake monster was seven meters away from him.

At this moment, the wand that Coven pointed forward suddenly flashed, and at the same time, a low shout echoed in the corridor, “Divine Edge Shadowless!”

The invisible blade suddenly flew out, and the distance of a few meters flew in a flash, successfully hitting the head of the basilisk.

“Hiss -”

With a “hiss”, the snake shadow on the left wall of the corridor suddenly leaned back but quickly bent down again.

At the same time, as if aroused, the snake no longer crawled slowly but suddenly increased its speed and rushed toward Coven.

According to the reaction of the snake monster, his Sectumsempra did not successfully hurt the other party but only caused pain.

There was no time to think about it; listening to the sound of gravel rubbing on the ground and looking at the shadow on the wall out of the corner of his eye, he accelerated his calculation in his mind.

When the snake monster was about three meters away from him and opened its huge mouth to swallow him, Coven suddenly exerted strength in his legs, and his whole body quickly jumped up in the air.

In the air, Coven turned his body and made his body spin in the air.

At the same time, he closed his eyes and simulated the environment model in his mind. He shook his right hand and turned the wand in his hand into a sharp metal sword.

Just as the basilisk’s head suddenly flew into the air, it was right under Kewen.

The muscles of Coven’s right hand suddenly swelled, and then he quickly stabbed the sword in his hand.

The soft, slippery feeling was reflected in his hand. Coven knew that the sharp sword made by the wand still could not pierce the snake’s eye.

It seemed that the snake monster not only had a high magic defense, but its physical defense was also very strong.

The attack was not successful. Coven sighed, and at the same time, he was ready to deal with it.

The snake monster was stabbed in the eye by a sharp blade, and although it could not hurt it, the pain could not be avoided.

Under the reflex, the snake monster instantly raised its head again, and the back of its head hit Coven, who was still in the air.

However, the reaction of the basilisk was completely calculated by Coven.

Therefore, just as the basilisk’s head was about to hit him, Coven’s body flipped to a suitable angle, causing the basilisk’s head to hit his feet.

He quickly curled up his legs to cushion the attack, and then like a spring, Coven used his body to jump in the direction of the snake tail.

He borrowed the force to jump out more than ten meters before turning around and landing on the ground. While raising his shield to block his vision, he also faced the snake again.

His feet landed on the ground and slid backward, leaving two long marks on the gravel ground.

He quickly balanced his body and continued to retreat until he was far away from the tail of the basilisk.

After pulling away from a distance, Coven exhaled a mouthful of turbid air from his chest and abdomen. Then he slowly took a deep breath and looked at the shadow on the wall.

This change of attack and defense only happened in five seconds from when Coven jumped up and landed again.

The process was very thrilling.

At this time, the Basilisk did not immediately chase after Coven.

But because of the pain in the eyeball, the basilisk kept shaking its head as if it could alleviate the pain.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Coven thought of one tactic after another, and a spell flashed in his mind. Still, the result was that he could only fight the basilisk in a physical fight unless he used Fiery Spell.

At this moment, the head of the basilisk stopped shaking, and the mouth emitted an even more intense ‘hissing’ sound.

The considerable body turned around and rushed towards Coven again.

Coven knew that he could not use the method of jumping high this time. After all, the snake monster was not a simple beast. If he were still like before, he would be directly swallowed by the snake monster.

Therefore, Coven raised his shield to block the snake monster’s line of sight and continued to jump backward.

At the same time, the wand in his other hand clicked repeatedly.

By calculating the direction of the snake monster, Coven launched a “Transfiguration Curse”, causing metal spikes to rise from the ground, and the sharp tip pointed at the head of the snake monster…
