Project: Mage - The Frugal Mage

Very powerful energy emanated from the paper. Taos threw the paper away immediately when he felt danger.

The piece of paper shone brightly before turning into an adult-sized paper doll.

"I see ... Vislac, it looks like the ancestor of the Noxzuss family gave you a guardian with the power of a level 1 Mage King. Interesting ..." Taos felt the energy emanating from the paper doll.

"Taos, you will pay for this. You have betrayed the Les Sangs Purs family, and now, will you betray the Noxzuss family? You are doomed. When you are captured, you will be severely punished "Vislac Kal spoke hatefully. He felt a lot of hatred for Taos, that hatred was much greater than the rage he felt for Liu Yang.

"Haha… capture me? Punish me? Vislac, you think a lot about yourself. Do you really think this doll can stop me? " Taos walked slowly towards Vislac Kal. His eyes were cold and murderous.

Shuoo !!!

When Taos arrived halfway, he was blocked by the puppet.

"You can"t stop me from killing that person" A much greater power exploded from Taos"s body. Before, he was using the power of a Warrior Mage, but now, his power was equivalent to a Mage King.

"How is this possible???!! How are you a King Mage ?? !! " Vislac Kal shouted in alarm. He never imagined that Taos would be a King Mage.

Liu Yang and Ivy were also startled by this sudden s.h.i.+ft in power from Taos.

As one of Raeliin"s ten blood maids, Ivy knew information about members of the Les Sangs Purs family. Thus, she was very frightened when she felt the power of a Mage King being emanated by Taos.

"Ivy, is this guy really a Mage King?" Liu Yang ran to Ivy"s side, he didn"t want to leave her alone in a dangerous moment like this.

"It seems so. Before I left to look for the mistress, he was just a Great Mage. I don"t know what happened to him during those years, but in judging his words, he must have found someone to serve. " Ivy understood a few things.

"Are we going to run?" Liu Yang whispered to Ivy. They would have no chance of victory against a Mage King unless the skeleton appears.

"We are going to move away little by little" Liu Yang and Ivy made a tactical plan.

"You two better not play games. Otherwise, you are the first to be killed. "Taos looked at the pair menacingly.

"!!!!" The pair understood that he was not kidding. The two stopped walking immediately.

Taos looked back at the paper doll.

"Army of Elemental Soldiers" Taos summoned about hundreds of soldiers made up of five elements. Wood, fire, metal, earth, ice, and wind.

Each group of twenty soldiers had special characteristics of the elements they were made of.

Taos had five elements because in his breakthrough to the level of the King Mage, he managed to awaken his fifth element. The chances of that happening were low, but it was still possible.

Many mages had only four elements, from the Beginner level to the Great Mage. From the Warrior Mage level, the chances of awakening a new element were very poor. The higher the rank, the less chance there is of awakening a new element at higher levels.

The only exception to the rule was Liu Yang, as he can have the ten elements, one for each level of cultivation. This was because he had the power of the Wheel of the Elements.

Currently, Liu Yang had a total of six elements, normally it would be five, but the sixth element is because of the double awakening he had from the invocation and wind elements. Summoning, wind, thunder, water, fire, and earth.

"Attack" Taos ordered his soldiers to attack the doll.

The group charged like soldiers going into battle. The paper doll did not stand still and also charge.

Pang !!! Pang !!!

Loud collision sounds were heard when the two sides clashed.

Despite being made of paper, the doll was very powerful, but he cannot use magic. The paper doll can only use punches and kicks to beat elemental soldiers.

Booom !!! Booom !!! Booom !!!

Several explosions occurred when the paper doll was. .h.i.t by the detonation of the fire element soldiers. They clung to some part of the wooden doll and exploded.

Some parts of the paper doll have been torn, this shows that the explosions were very powerful.

The glow that covered the paper doll became weaker after being hurt.

"It seems that this doll is not much use against control mages like me. Vislac, I think that the ancestor of the Noxzuss family doesn"t trust you that much. " Taos laughed at that scene. He had thought that the paper doll would be powerful, but appearances are deceiving.

"This can"t be ..." Vislac Kal felt like he was close to death. His last resort was in vain. Even the doll given by the ancestor was not enough to stop Taos.

"You can die" Taos waved his hand. The two shadow soldiers behind him pierced his heart with their giant swords.

"This can"t be happening ..." Vislac Kal died without being able to react. His dead body was lying on the floor lifeless.

Shuoooo !!! Boooom !!!!!!!!!!!

Suddenly, something was fired towards the paper doll and the elemental soldiers. A gigantic explosion occurred and swallowed everything around them. Everything was destroyed by the explosion and a large crater was opened.

"Who did this??!!!" Taos was startled by this sudden event. He looked at where his soldiers were and there was only one large hole left in the ground.

Neither the paper doll nor the soldiers managed to survive the explosion.

Looking at the horizon, we can see a giant skeleton walking towards the ancient ruins. The skeleton was already three hundred meters away, with each step, ten meters were covered.

"What is it?? How is there anything like that in this swamp ?? " Taos was startled to see the giant skeleton. He never thought there was such a thing in the forest. The power emanating from the skeleton made him tremble.

"Emperor. This is the power of an Emperor Mage. What is a rank 7 creature doing here ?? And why is he going in that direction ?? " Taos had several questions on his mind, but he soon realized something when he looked away.

Liu Yang and Ivy were missing. The two went into hiding after the explosion happened.

"Are you???!!! You attracted that creature here. You must have stolen something very valuable to make that skeleton chase you both. Interesting… Give me that item !!! Or I will have to take it from you by force!!! " Taos became greedy after thinking about it. He screamed and released his power from the earth element to try to detect something strange underground.

An item that can attract a rank 7 creature was unusual. The item must be very rare and precious.

"d.a.m.n!!! It seems that they took advantage of that moment of the explosion and escaped. I can"t let them escape. The item they took from this one is very rare and precious. This skeleton must be the guardian of the item. If I follow the skeleton, I may be able to find those two, "Taos said coldly. He would kill Liu Yang and Ivy to get the item.

Pang !!! Pang !!!

The giant skeleton slowly approached the ruins, but there was something different about it, or rather, on its side. Skeletons.

Thousands of skeletons were walking along with the giant skeleton. These skeletons were of people and creatures that died in the swamp.

The energy of death emanating from the skeleton was so powerful that he woke the other smaller skeletons while it followed the flower"s energy. Since these skeletons were weak and low-level, they were awakened by energy.

Along the way, several thousand skeletons were awakened.

"What energy is that ?? That dense and deadly energy "Taos felt as if he were inside a place covered by corpses. The death energy emanating from the giant skeleton was very strong.

"Is this energy related to the item that those two took? If so, it will be very useful for me "Taos decided to take the item in Liu Yang"s possession, even though he has to face the giant skeleton.

As the sentence says: No pain, no gain.

"Those two must be hiding somewhere around here, but where ??" Taos closed his eyes and the power exploded from his body.

The land around it started to shake as if it had an earthquake. Taos was a.n.a.lyzing the surrounding terrain to see if the pair were underground.

"They are not hidden underground. Fire Soldiers "Taos will use another method to detect both.

"Explode every inch of this part of the forest." Hundreds of fire soldiers rushed to several different locations.

Boooom !!!! Boooom !!!! Boooom !!!!

The fire soldiers began to explode and destroy the trees, the waters of the swamp, and the surrounding land. Taos wanted to force the two of them out of their hiding place.

Boooom !!!! Boooom !!!! Boooom !!!!

Pang !!! Pang !!!!

As Taos destroyed the surrounding areas, the giant skeleton slowly approached.

A light was gathered inside its mouth before firing.

Shuooo !!!! Boooom !!!!!!!!!!!!!
