Second World

Chapter 1056 1056. Unending Spells

Outside the throne room of Dritzuutʼs palace, a group of soldiers was crowding before the entrance. They were staring at the entrance with apprehension. They had heard their sovereignʼs call, but they couldnʼt enter the throne room.

The reason was that two beings were blocking the entrance. Two beings that exuded an aura that caused them to not dare charge through.

These two beings were Strah and Korku, the mythical-grade corrupted lord and lady from the Cult of Phobos.

”This is absurd. If the point is to take out this countryʼs ruler, we can carry it out in an instant. Why are we standing guard like this?” Korku complained.

”Because thatʼs our Godʼs order,” Strah answered.

”Hah! This is boring. They donʼt even dare to attack,” Korku uttered. ”Well. If you ask me, I said God Fear wants to help that outworlder but he doesnʼt want to make it seem as if he is favoring the outworlder too much. Our God has his pride, after all.”

”You talk too much,” Strah said.

”Why are you all still standing here?!” A large ethereal in heavy armor appeared. His armor was gleaming with swirling bluish energy as he walked.

”High Marshall!” The soldiers uttered. The high marshall was equivalent to Themisphereʼs lord marshall.

The one who was addressed as the high marshall immediately noticed the problem. His eyes narrowed as he watched the two figures standing before the throne roomʼs entrance.

The high marshall was a level 80 mythical grade named Morphic. He brandished his weapon, which was a giant silver bearded axe.

His other arm waved and a bipedal creature slightly larger than him materialized beside him. It was his pet, a Crystal Wendigo. The Crystal Wendigo was a thin humanoid creature with crimson moose antlers on its head. Its skin was rigid and hard as its name implied. It had hollow eyes and a wide mouth full of sharp teeth.

The Crystal Wendigo was a level 85 rare elite beast.

”For Liguritudum…!!” Morphic shouted as he lunged forward with his axe. His Crystal Wendigo ran by his side.

”Hahaha! This is more like it!” Korku laughed. She grabbed her black knife and turned into a shadow.

Her shadow zoomed forward and collided with Morphic. The impact threw her back but she became a shadow again and zipped around at an undiscernible speed. Morphic and his crystal wendigo had trouble catching her.

The other ethereal soldiers also rushed forward now that their high marshall had taken the lead. But Strah made one wave with his hand and black fog appeared around him. Those that rushed into the fog found themselves lost inside while their HP was slowly depleted.

Inside the throne room, Igneous was unaware of what happened outside. He was still confused why no one came after his call of emergency.

Chemos clashed with Masterʼs companion, an ethereal whose name was Urxor. Even though Chemos was ten levels higher, Urxor was one grade stronger. After a few melees, it was clear that Urxor was at an advantage. please visit 𝗳𝘳ee𝙬𝙚𝚋n𝚘𝚟𝗲𝚕.𝑐𝑜𝘮.

Master even proceeded to summon his other minions, Flame Salamander and Winged Feral Tiger, to support Urxor, further pushing Chemos back. He also summoned his dual-wielding avatar who rushed at Silph.

Master continued to cast one spell after another. He cast his level 60 Prime Demonologist spell, Waves of Hellfire. The spell conjured repeated flaming waves which dealt fire and chaos damage.

The waves washed over all his three opponents, hitting his summons and companion as well. He didnʼt care about damaging his allies. They were simply his tools.

As a mythical combatant, Urxorʼs HP was very high. So, the damage from Masterʼs spell wasnʼt a concern, but Linda still cast Healing Spirit to heal his HP.

Master never stopped casting, he also activated his Warlockʼs boost, Demonic Possession. He cast his Elementalistʼs spells, which class had also been upgraded into a first-class special class, Elemental Master. This special class boosted all his elemental damage.

Combined with his non-standard spells, his library of spells was inexhaustible. He could cast two spells at the same time. His casting speed was also inhuman. It made his opponents feel as if he cast his spells instantly.

Igneos could only cast defensive spells to protect himself from Masterʼs unending spells. Without the palaceʼs rune diagrams healing him, his HP continued to dwindle.

Igneos became more and more concerned as time passed. The guards in the throne room were losing. He watched with disbelief as these few outworlders defeated his guards one by one. And there was still no sign of reinforcement coming from outside.

Masterʼs AOE spells not only hit him but the throne as well. An emergency warning should have sounded in every Liguritudum soldierʼs mind. Where didnʼt anyone come?!

As his worry became more urgent, he saw something even more concerning.

Master was still dual-casting, but one of his spell formations was extremely large. It was a mega spell!

Igneos couldnʼt allow Master to complete the spell! It would be a disaster. He forgot about protecting himself and cast an offensive spell.

He summoned a barrage of ice boulders that rolled toward Master. These ice boulders delivered strong knockback force upon impact. Master wouldnʼt be able to maintain his position against this spell, which should cause his mega spell to be canceled.

However, Masterʼs other spell formation was completed and he disappeared. He reappeared behind Igneos. He had expected Igneos to panic and used a big spell, thus he anticipated by casting Teleportation.

Teleportation displaced his position to another place. But in a sense, he never moved. Hence, the mega spell was not canceled.

Masterʼs mega spell was not yet completed, but a torrent of powerful elemental energies was unleashed from his body. Twenty wind blades rushed at a blinding speed toward Igneos. It was the Wind God Blades.

The Wind God Blades didnʼt produce AOE damage as the Lightning God Barrage. Each blade only hit one target. But in exchange, the damage they produced was higher than the Lightning God Barrage.

Masterʼs mega spell was completed while Igneos was barraged by the wind blades.

Out of the completed spell formation, three gigantic beings burst out. Each was an oriental dragon made of different elemental energies. Fire, ice, and lightning. The three elemental dragons roared as they rushed toward Igneos, who could only watch them helplessly with terrified eyes.
