Chapter 88 The Kid's Revenge
Hurry up and let me choose a spell!!!
Lacking the necessary gems, Geb was stuck on the fourth node for several weeks. During this time, he couldn't learn any new spells and could only drool over the spell list... After some searching, Geb selected these spells as candidates:
Sleep spell, gravity amplification spell, jump spell, and thunder wave.
Sleep Spell: Puts creatures within a five-meter radius into a magical slumber. The duration and depth of sleep are determined by the creature's mental strength and endurance. Individuals with strong mental strength can resist the effects of this spell.
Gravity Amplification: Increases the gravity within a 10-meter radius space to three times its original value within one minute.
Jumping Technique: Increases a creature's jumping ability to three times its original value for one minute, and strengthens the creature's joints by three times.
Thunder Wave: Releases a shockwave of thunder from the caster, knocking back objects and creatures within a five-meter radius and dealing sonic damage.
Prior to this, Geb had already chosen illusion spells, battlefield control spells, defensive spells, and damage spells.
What's lacking now is spells to weaken the enemy, and escape spells to help oneself escape in critical moments.
As Gebu pondered these things, he thought about the chase with the witch hunters, vultures, and Pompom in the wildfire... that time was truly terrifying.
The Sleep spell is more powerful than the Gravity Amplification spell, but the latter is more versatile and allows for some clever maneuvers... and it doesn't rely on the enemy's "mental strength." Although he doesn't know how mental strength is measured, Gebu thinks that if he were to cast Sleep on the old witch hunter, it would definitely have no effect.
Compared to Thunder Wave, the Jump Spell has more versatility, while the latter is cooler and more powerful... However, it's incredibly noisy. If you set one up in town, the whole town will come out to see the spectacle... You can't just set it up randomly.
After much deliberation, Gebu chose "Gravity Amplification" and "Thunder Wave".
After making all the selections, Geb checked the effects of Arcane Recollection:
Between meditations, a wizard can spend ten minutes performing Arcane Recollection and restoring a spell ring of the same level as themselves.
A level one wizard can restore one first-level spell ring, a level two wizard can restore two first-level spell rings, or one second-level spell ring, and so on.
Ten minutes is definitely not enough time to spare in a battle. In other words, you can only use a maximum of two first-level rings per day, and then you can get one more after the battle ends.
Three first-level spells a day, not bad.
After everything was ready, Geb began practicing the two new spells he had learned. He didn't wake up until his meditation time was about to end and he felt his head getting a little swollen. He returned to the real world.
-----------------
Gebu rubbed his eyes. This meditation had gone by very quickly; 24 hours had passed in the blink of an eye.
Under the influence of the anchoring potion, Geb meditated from midnight on the first day until the early hours of the second day, which was a little longer than 24 hours.
Ah... I'm so thirsty... I'm hungry and feel bloated...
The suppressed sensation simultaneously alarmed the goblin in the instant he regained consciousness. He instantly felt sensory overload, his head spinning terribly…
I need to go downstairs and get some water... Gebu reached for the Thousand Faces Mask by the bed.
Oh no, where's my mask?
Gebu's heart tightened, and the discomfort he felt instantly turned into a cold sweat that broke out on his back. He quickly jumped out of bed and frantically rummaged through the bedside table!
The mask... the mask is gone!
The goblin panicked, its amber eyes darting around—the house was a mess, looking like it had been ransacked.
My dimensional bag? It's still under my butt. The food is fine... but the mask on the bedside table is gone!
A thief broke in?!
The curtains suddenly moved.
"Who!" Geb instantly released his wizard's hand and flung open the curtains.
"ah!"
The hostage's small face appeared behind the curtains. She was tiptoeing out of the window, one foot already on the windowsill.
Gebu spotted what was in her hand immediately!
"My mask!"
When the child saw that the goblin had spotted him, he frantically tried to climb over the windowsill, but just as he got over it, he slipped and fell headlong out of the window!
-----------------
Geb ran wildly toward the window, not caring that he was still in goblin form—if he threw away this mask, he would be stuck in the town center at daybreak and wouldn't have anywhere to run, he would be doomed!
He leaned out of the window. The room was on the top floor of the hotel, and the window was a roof window. Outside was a sloping surface covered with red tiles, which was quite steep at a 45-degree angle.
The child lost his balance and rolled around on the roof tiles, looking like he was about to fall off the eaves!
Geb quickly released his wizard's hand to grab the hostage's braid!
"oops!"
The girl's scalp was pulled up, her face was stretched into an extremely distorted shape, her skin was taut, and her eyes were stretched into slits.
The child's weight exceeded the wizard's hand's capacity, and he continued to slide. In a panic, Geb slapped his thigh:
"Saltus!"
As the incantation for the leaping spell left Geb's tongue, the goblin's thighs suddenly swelled, veins bulging like earthworms emerging from the soil. He crouched on the windowsill, his legs poised like a frog gathering strength—
Jump!
In an instant, Goblin sprang behind the little girl and grabbed her collar. Propelled by inertia, the goblin and the little girl were thrown off the roof together!
Gebu reacted instantly, grabbing the drain under the eaves with both hands, swinging his body in a half-circle in mid-air, and crashing into the wall!
pain!
The goblin held back its cry; it was so heavy! Someone was hitching a ride on its ankle!
He looked down and saw the little girl hugging her legs tightly. Their eyes met.
The girl looked down and saw the ground more than ten meters below, and her body trembled violently.
"...Gently...gently..."
"Gebu said through gritted teeth," the girl's sharp fingernails dug into the goblin's hide, making Gebu grimace.
The little girl didn't listen to him and grabbed Gebu's waistband to climb up!
Gebu was in pain, felt heavy, and was itchy all at once; his hands were almost unable to hold on!
That's the town square down there. It's just before dawn, and the horizon is glowing white—the early-rising baker is carrying flour into his shop. If he looked up, he'd see the goblins and children hanging from the eaves...
"We can't catch...we can't catch it..."
Geb said through gritted teeth.
The little girl had climbed up the goblin's body to his shoulder, and she stepped on Gob's face, then reached up to lift his face...
Gebu felt a lump in his throat, and his hand slipped. The little girl, who was almost grabbing the eaves, suddenly fell down. Instinctively, she grabbed Gebu's torso and wrapped her arms around his neck from behind.
I can't breathe... It's choking me to death!
If this continues, both of them will fall... Gebu desperately uttered a few words:
"I'll... I'll cooperate..."
Then, he began to twist his body in mid-air, swaying back and forth.
The girl initially thought the goblin was going to throw her off, so she quickly used her hands and feet to cling to the goblin in octopus mode.
However, as Gebu's movements became more and more intense, the girl realized what he was doing and began to wriggle along with him.
Early in the morning, two large insects were wriggling in the air above the square of Chifang Town... The scene was quite outrageous.
After swinging back and forth a few times, Gebu's feet finally touched the solid wall. He pushed off with all his might, and with the help of the jumping technique, he drew a circle in the air with his hand gripping the drain as the center!
My hand hurts! I can't hold it anymore!
The moment they flew over the eaves, Gebu let go, and the two little ones flew onto the roof...
Then it crashed heavily onto the roof!
Splash!
"Um?"
The baker passing by downstairs heard the noise and looked up.
A tile flew through the air and fell. The baker quickly stepped back, and the tile shattered at his feet.
"Damn it, Buck!" the man exclaimed, cursing, "Whose damn cat is this—it's awful!"
At this very moment, on the hotel rooftop, two so-called "cats," a male and a female, are engaged in a tense and thrilling standoff!
The decisive battle at the summit of Chifang!
