Chapter 541 Battle Against Two Sovereigns

?Vicente closed his mouth and watched the ghost and the lich move, having angered both of them so much that any chance of a peaceful resolution had completely disappeared.

"Run, Layla!" He shouted to his companion as he ran forward towards the two.

Layla moved, concentrating as much of her power as she could to try to overcome the siege of ghosts, zombies, and liches in the area.

More than two thousand creatures were already surrounding the area where they were!

However, with her very high speed, she simply sliced through the enemy bodies, destroying the beings with material bodies.

The rotting corpses and skeletons shattered as she passed through them, while she only dodged the ghosts, the only ones her powers would have no effect on.

Some of the creatures surrounding her moved behind her as they saw her pass easily, but most stayed in place, aware that the real threat was still within their encirclement.

The two Earth Sovereigns ignored Layla, knowing that the real problem was Vicente.

The ghost began to use its powers to hurt and exhaust Vicente, as it could only try to possess a body without resistance.

Meanwhile, the lich moved its troops into the area, using the collective power of its minions to cast negative elemental spells in Vicente's direction.

Vicente initially ignored the lich, knowing he couldn't deal with two Sovereigns at once. What he could do was dodge the attacks of one of them and concentrate on the other.

He decided to deal with the ghost first, as it was the most difficult creature there, the one he would need to be at his best to defeat.

Using Torne's knowledge about ghosts, Vicente moved his mana through his body while forming spells based on his lightning element and mainly using his second skill related to electromagnetic fields.

Previously, in the 'battle' against Torne, Vicente had been unable to do anything against that ghost and had only been beaten. But that situation was more due to Vicente's low level at that time than because his powers weren't useful against ghosts.

Vicente's powers were useful against ghosts. But he had to be at the right level to affect 4th stage creatures with the specific nature of ghosts!

After all, ghosts were souls. That meant that anything that could affect souls could affect them. In other words, any condensed attack with enough mana to hurt a given soul should be enough to hurt a ghost.

Vicente didn't have enough mana to do this before, but now he did!

Using his second ability and creating an electromagnetic barrier around him, Vicente saw the ghost trying to attack, failing to get close to him as Torne had done in the past.

The ghost was surprised to feel something repel its body while noting Vicente's mental solidity, able to withstand even the power of a being like it!

Ka-boom!

A huge bang sounded milliseconds after a huge flash appeared over The Skull City, and a bolt of lightning struck the translucent body of the ghost attacking Vicente.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!"

For the first time in millennia, the 4th stage ghost let out a scream of pain, surprising all the minimally intelligent beings in the area.

"I told you you'd scream, ghost," Vicente said as he moved his mana up one of his arms while stretching it toward the neck of the creature in front of him.

Meanwhile, the two of them flew around the area, the many metal artifacts mainly serving as shields to protect Vicente from the attacks of the liches in the area.

Meanwhile, he didn't hesitate to move his many blades as if they were parts of a shredder, indiscriminately attacking all those controlled by the 4th stage lich.

He didn't need much to do this when dealing with the ghost, so he didn't make it easy for those beings who tried to take him down with long-range attacks.

"Damn it!" The 4th stage lich shouted in frustration.

Even though it was a Sovereign, it had the weakness of beings of its race. It was very strong in spells, but its body was fragile, and it had to stay away from its enemies.

Seeing how easily Vicente destroyed its subordinates, this creature became angry. It stopped controlling its people to concentrate on casting a spell of great power against Vice.

"Souls of the Underworld!" It opened its mouth to shout as it made a magic circle appear around it, expanding as it brought the spell to 'life.'

Skeletal arms emerged from the void not far from Vicente and moved quickly to attack him, grabbing his wrists, neck, heels, and more.

Looking away, Vicente noticed the lich's attack and moved many of his metal items to destroy it.

His metal defenses turned into small shurikens, attacking in the direction of those arms and hands which were already wrapped around his body.

Amidst this, the ghost tried to endure the pain in its body and hit hard against Vicente's body.

"Die, you bastard!" The ghost shifted its mana to its arms, making spears of mana appear from its skeletal hands and slashing at Vicente's neck.

Two of Vicente's pentagrams brightly glowed as his eyes became transparent, and the rest of his body gradually lost its contours and became invisible.

"What the hell?!"

Vicente disappeared in front of them as his mana vanished, and all the metal objects around him stopped moving under his control.

Swooish!

However, these objects did not lose their shape and continued to move as the energy associated with their movement still affected them.

The shurikens, shields, and other forms of defensive and offensive artifacts continued on their way, some falling vertically. In contrast, others flew in parabolic, horizontally, and so on.

Several skeletal creatures and corpses on the outskirts had their bodies destroyed and added to the pile of human remains without any sign of life or remaining intelligence.

The 4th stage lich and the ghost looked at their surroundings with concern, neither feeling Vicente even though they were stronger in level than their opponent.

"Shit! What just happened?" The ghost turned to the lich.

"That must be some kind of cloaking ability. His power is related to electromagnetism, so he must have some control over light." The lich pondered as it used its senses to search for Vicente.

"But what about his aura? How come none of us can sense it?"

"That..." The lich couldn't explain that part until it heard something strange not far from it.
