Chapter 1603: 442 Fire Cover and Ancient City Patrol_2 “Spell: Alluring Gaze!” “No, no, no…” “I’m not afraid of you, I can resist!” An unprecedented sense of fear surged into Leon’s heart, and at that moment, he finally realized just how terrifying the necromancer before him truly was! At this moment. Matthew’s whole body emitted a faint, cleansing light. His eye sockets were empty, as frightening as black holes, and similar dark patches also appeared around the edges of his robe, making him look like a grim reaper! Affected by the Alluring Gaze’s aura of fear. The elemental life forms nearby, which had intended to step forward to help Leon, all stopped in their tracks. And Leon’s own Aspect Hound, with just a glance from Matthew, scattered in all directions. Fear spread like a tide, solidifying as if it were tangible. Leon felt an eerie silence enclosing him, where he could not hear any sounds; it was as if even the sound itself was too fearful of the necromancer before him to dare to make even the slightest noise. Affected by fear. His thought process turned sticky, sluggish. The next moment. He abruptly realized that it wasn’t that there were no sounds around him, but that he— couldn’t hear anymore! “I’m sick…” An unprecedented sense of panic filled Leon’s heart; his heart throbbed violently, as though it was about to leap out. He tried hard to calm everything down. But Matthew’s face, with eyes like black holes, was branded deep into his mind. He had to constantly bear the torment of fear and weakness! … “Hint: You have used “Alluring Gaze” to control “Dawn Star Leon.” You have forcibly induced a “Sick” condition in Leon! The following “Sick” symptoms have now manifested in Leon— -Weakness and fatigue; -Dry mouth and throat; -Accelerated heartbeat; -Complete deafness;” … Matthew maintained the spell with a calm demeanor. While observing the movements of the others, he moved towards the weakened Leon once again. Without his helpers, Leon would have died long ago. But Ingram’s folks seemed quite united; just a moment ago they had already lost so many water elements, yet for the sake of saving Leon, they mobilized a portion of the air elements. Unfortunately, the air elements had poor resistance to Alluring Gaze, and Matthew successfully drove them away. “Little Ingram’s main focus is still on maintaining the resurrection of Blood Angel Urmas.” “Once he’s free, Leon won’t be so easy to kill!” Matthew realized that this sudden teleportation was a godsend to kill this legendary archer, who harbored great hostility towards him. Archers and spellcasters alike were cunning. Approaching him at any other time wouldn’t have been so easy! “Die!” Matthew lifted his spear to deliver a piercing blow to Leon, who lay weakened on the ground— But just at that moment. He sensed a repulsive aura behind him. Whoosh! Matthew flashed aside instantly. A grey hazy sphere landed on the ground; although Matthew dodged the sphere, he couldn’t escape the black and white barrier it created on bursting! That was… A Sealing Demon Barrier! … “Warning: You are inside a Sealing Demon Barrier created by ‘Mother of Black Dragon Audacia’! Within the barrier, you cannot use spells above 2nd-rank!” … Matthew’s face darkened. He stared coldly at Audacia, who maintained a certain distance from him, aware that if that Sealing Demon Ball had hit, the effect might have been even more formidable. Sealing Demon Balls are one of the most frequently used items by warlocks against spellcasters. They lock down spellcasting pathways, but innate spellcasting and other spell-like abilities are not affected. Many warlocks, when dueling a spellcaster, like to close the distance, then use a Sealing Demon Ball to suppress the spellcaster’s power, and subsequently finish them off with spell-like abilities or even melee skills. It was not too difficult to counter such devices. Most Sealing Demon Balls couldn’t lock down cantrips, lacked suppression characteristics, and also carried a not-so-small failure rate, unlike Mystic Locks which posed a fatal threat to spellcasters. Moreover. Audacia didn’t seem to fancy confronting Matthew in close combat. She didn’t even dare to look directly into Matthew’s eyes. Merely throwing a ball from a distance and then withdrawing again. “Run!” “Leon, run!” The Mother of Black Dragon shouted loudly. Matthew sighed softly, finding himself restrained again. But such things couldn’t be rushed; Matthew knew he had to remain calm and the best course of action was to first get out of the Sealing Demon Ball’s range, then pursue and kill Leon. But the very next second. Suddenly, the unexpected happened. Leon scrambled up from the ground, stumbling; his face was flushed with a sickly hue, his bulging eyes filled with thick bloodshot streaks! “Run?” “Why should I run anymore?” “I am a hunter, I am a warrior, I am not a coward!” Leon’s weak face was filled with a fervent expression: “He can now only cast spells of Tier 3 and below, can I still lose to him?” Clutching a dagger, teeth gritted, he charged towards Matthew! That instant. Leon thought of many things. In his head, Matthew’s face, named by fear, was still imprinted. That taste of being suffused with fear was unbearable. He vaguely remembered the first time he went hunting in the mountains, chasing an injured honey badger for a long time. In the end. He found it in its den. The look in the honey badger’s eyes as it faced him was something the young Leon greatly relished. That moment. He felt as if he had become a god. And since then. He resolutely took the path of a hunter.
