Chapter 283: Brad’s Fear
[Aura of Fear]
Anyone who was weaker than Flanders would lose all of their strength.
Those with similar strength would also be weakened by a level.
When Flanders had just leveled up to an A class, this Aura of Fear should have taken effect.
However, he had the intention of watching the show, so he suppressed this skill.
And now, he let go of this suppression.
The effect naturally took effect.
At this moment, Brad’s face became very fearful.
He had already noticed this change.
In this Domain, his teammate and Ralph’s levels continued to drop. While he sympathized, at the same time, he was also glad that his strength did not drop.
But now...
He discovered that after Ralph became an ordinary person, his strength was actually weakened and became a B+ rank!
Brad’s heart was filled with disbelief.
He really could not figure it out.
The scarecrow was obviously just a B+ rank. Even if it had a very rare Domain, it would not affect his strength.
This was not because he was blindly confident.
It was because, in this world, high-level people were born with the ability to suppress low-level people.
Not to mention the two levels with the biggest gap between B+ rank and A rank.
Since he became a mage, until now, he had never heard of anyone who could rely on their Domain to affect an A rank’s strength when they were at B+ rank.
Therefore, after noticing that his strength had been weakened, Brad could not believe it.
What was this scarecrow based on?
Could it have advanced to A rank?
He was bewildered.
Brad felt that it was impossible because in his impression, this scarecrow had not been born for a long time. If he wanted to advance to A rank, how could he do it without accumulating some time?
However, at the same time, his heart was very shaken.
After all, if the scarecrow had not advanced to A rank, how could it affect him?
It was impossible!
So...
Just as he thought of this, Brad heard a scream from Ralph’s side.
He looked up.
He could only see smoke permeating the surroundings, and ten meters away, there seemed to be an indistinct black shadow walking towards him.
What Ralph was referring to was precisely this black shadow in front of him.
Who was this?
Brad narrowed his eyes and carefully observed the newcomer.
Ta ta ta!
The dull sound of footsteps hit Brad’s heart like a thunder drum.
As the sound got closer and closer, his heart became more and more uneasy.
At this time, he felt that it was ridiculous.
He was an A rank mage, but he was actually scared to such an extent. This was simply something that the previous him could not imagine.
The voice was getting closer and closer.
At the same time, the figure in the fog gradually revealed an outline.
This outline...
Was similar to the huge figure that had appeared in mid-air. Could it be?
“Scarecrow!”
Ralph cried out in surprise, confirming his answer.
Ka ka ka.
Sure enough, as soon as Ralph’s voice fell, the figure in the fog had already walked in. At this distance, he could already see the other party’s appearance.
His face was ferocious, and it was a mess of straw.
The first time he saw the scarecrow, Brad’s pupils constricted.
Terrifying!
Eerie!
Strange!
The first time he saw the scarecrow, these words appeared in his mind, and this was also his first feeling.
And then, when the scarecrow approached, he immediately felt as if there was a huge mountain pressing down on his heart, and he could not breathe.
So strong!!
His forehead was covered in sweat, and his body could not help but tremble.
This aura...
Brad’s eyes instantly became bloodshot, and he took two steps back in fear.
A rank strength!
This scarecrow had A rank strength!!
This fellow had actually advanced to A rank!!
Having stayed in A rank for so long, he was naturally very familiar with the unique aura of faith of an A rank. Even if he had been weakened to B+ rank, he definitely would not be mistaken.
“Ah ah!!”
As the scarecrow got closer and closer.
The surrounding Domain space pressure became more and more intense. Brad could still easily withstand it.
However, Ralph had already been weakened to become an ordinary person. Facing this terrifying pressure, he could not even resist the most basic of things.
This caused his body to directly transform, and his limbs to twist.
Ralph cried out in pain.
However, the scream did not last long. Then, a scythe slashed across and the scream disappeared.
A head rolled on the ground.
A bloody line was drawn.
Finally, it rolled directly under Brad’s feet.
Looking at Ralph’s frozen face, which was full of pain, Brad felt a chill in his heart. It was as if he saw his own ending on Ralph.
“You!”
Brad’s face was full of fear.
However, what responded to him was only a huge black scythe.
Bang!
The terrifying scythe fell, swinging directly at Brad’s neck.
Danger!!
Brad’s heart trembled, and he hurriedly raised the huge sword in his hand to block in front of him.
Following a crisp sound.
Brad’s entire body flew out.
If it was an hour ago, when he was still an A rank powerhouse and Flanders was still a B rank powerhouse, he definitely would not be in such a sorry state when facing Flanders’s scythe attack.
In fact, if he did not use his Domain, he would have been able to directly cut off the scarecrow in front of him.
Unfortunately, now, the tables have turned.
Previously, he was A rank, but now, he was weakened by a small degree.
And the scarecrow had previously been a B rank, but now, it had been successfully promoted.
As someone who had experienced it before...
Brad knew very well how big the gap between B rank and a rank was. It was like the difference between heaven and earth. If there was no special method, there was no way to cross this gap.
That was exactly the case.
Right now, he was filled with fear towards Flanders.
“Hehe.”
When Brad heard the laughter, he immediately raised his head.
The scarecrow’s tall figure stood in front of him, blocking almost all of his vision.
He raised his head slightly.
He saw the scarecrow’s wide-open mouth.
He saw the scarecrow’s extremely crazy expression.
It was as if the person standing in front of him was not a scarecrow, but a true demon god of fear.
Brad swallowed his saliva, and the fear in his heart grew stronger and stronger.
Of course.
This state did not last long.
He quickly reacted.
He could not continue like this!
Otherwise, he would die at the hands of this scarecrow sooner or later.
Previously, because he had to protect others, he could not let go. Now that Ralph was dead, there was no one who was in the way.
Although he was only B rank now, he could still use the power of faith.
And the power of faith was the biggest asset in terms of strength after breaking through to A rank.
It was not an exaggeration to say that.
With his current strength, he was invincible among B rank. Because no one at the same level, whether it was a mage or a strange creature, could resist the power of faith!
The power of faith...
Can crush magic power!
