Runemaster in the Last Days-Chapter 376: Peter vs Riya (2)

Bang!

The moment Samuel said the signal to start, Peter kicked the ground and rushed over to Riya. From the strength that Riya had shown before, Peter knew very well that Riya is very powerful, so he didn't plan to hold back at all.

Riya saw Peter's speed and was not surprised. Instead, she raised her right hand to form one rune and the left one formed another one.

Boom!

Peter's punch was blocked a meter away from Riya as an invisible barrier was formed there. On the other hand, the left hand continued to draw runes, which started to form in the air at rapid speed and circled around Riya's body.

"And you say you're an auxiliary?"

Peter snorted and then started to rapidly punch forward.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The shield that was formed in a hurry shattered one after another. But every time the shield was broken, there would be another shield waiting for him. In this way, he could only move forward one milimeters at a time.

To cross one meter's gap, this would definitely take a long time.

And what Riya wanted to do when making this series of shield was definitely to delay time.

Her right hand kept on making more shield, blocking Peter's advance and his rapid attack.

Peter has years of fighting experience, so he saw through Riya's intention. In this way, he stopped and then the aura round him exploded.

Riya's expression turned solemn when she saw this, but her hand didn't stop moving. Rune after runes were formed from both the left and right hand, forming two completely different runes.

For a rune master like her, trying to escape or run away would be useless.

Her physical strength was far from comparable to Peter.

If she tried to run away, he would definitely catch up and then started the bombardment. So facing a pure physical warrior, Riya could only stand in place and used runes to block his attack, again and again.

Of course, she could also use teleportation formation…

But it needed time to cast.

And it was estimated that Peter would not give her this time.

Peter took a deep breath and faint aura started to emerge around his body, enveloping him in a dark red color. At the same time, the pressure around Peter also turned higher, making it hard to breath around him.

Riya's eyes condensed.

"Rapid punches!"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

He repeated the same moves as before but this time, it was accompanied by the thick aura enveloping him. And with the aura enhancing his power, one punch was all that he needed to destroy one shield. The next punch would hit the next shield.

So in an instant, he had crossed half a meter's distance.

"You're indeed very good." Riya had to admit that most rune master who faced Peter would not be able to fight back in time.

Because Peter was really fast and ordinary mages and rune master needed time to form their runes and so on.

But…

He met her.

Swish!

The next moment, the runes circling Riya started to move on its own. There was one diagonally to the left and one diagonally to the right. The beautiful runes made it difficult for them to see what it was for.

At least, for those in the distance, they only felt that it looked beautiful. As if there were two circles of words floating around Riya and protected her.

"Peter is too slow," Samuel said when he saw this scene. If Peter had used his aura from the very beginning, he might have a chance to defeat Riya.

But now…

He doubted it.

"Brother, what runes are those?" Amelia asked.

"It's called Protective Rune Circle," Samuel replied. He knew because this was the standard moves for most rune masters above rank 5.

They would form runes around their bodies that would serve as a means to protect them. Of course, the details for every rune master's protective rune circle could be different. They could add various enhancement, which would add some other methods such as counterattack, attack, higher defense, or others.

So even if they looked similar, no one usually dared to get close.

In case they triggered some 'special effects,' it would be really bad.

Because some rune master could be really insidious and even added poisoning attributes or even debuff type of magic spell.

Samuel didn't know the details of Riya's Protective Rune Circle.

But he could guess that it should not be the standard one.

"Is it powerful?"

"Yes, it is powerful." Samuel nodded. "And all rune master at rank 5 or above will always make it first thing first during battle because it takes a long time for their Protectives Runes Circle to form.

Many of them could even take minutes, which was why rune master was called as an auxiliary profession.

During that time gap, they could die several times over!

So only very few people would want to use runes and formation when they were fighting in the arena. Of course, if it was an expedition or anything like that, these rune master could always cast the Protective Rune Circle beforehand.

In this way, their lives would be guaranteed.

But Riya's Protective Rune Circle…

Is there even 15 seconds yet?

Samuel looked at the fight between the two people with great interest. It seemed that all returnees should be advancing at more or less similar pace.

The moment Riya finished forming the Protective Rune Circle, she continued to make other runes. Her mana consumption might be large, but her excellent control allowed her to save mana as much as possible.

Peter didn't notice that Riya was done, but he felt great sense of danger.

He gritted his teeth and the aura around his body exploded as he rapidly attacked the layer of shields.

In just three seconds, all the shields were broken.

And when Peter punched forward towards Riya afterwards, he immediately regretted it. The huge force that he felt coming at him was more than enough to threaten his life.

BOOM!
