Chapter 245: Quantum Corridor

”You said trap the sailing ghost ship in a loop. You are not actually saying we create a quantum corridor.” Une shouted as what Trois said is not possible even if Trois is a genius magus.

”I am not saying that I will cast it myself. I am saying that we will cast it simultaneously in order to share the burden.” Trois stated as he pointed to all the demons in the group.

”Are you even more insane?” Une replied back.

”I think it is possible if all four of us share the burden.” Deux stated which made Une calm down a bit.

”We do know the spell matrix but I do not think that our leader knows of it.” Une stated in a flat tone to not sound so demeaning.

”If you are talking about a Quantum Corridor then I know how it works as Elder Ascalor taught me the basics of all the spatial magic even though I did not want to. He crammed all of it inside my head even though I did not learn the spell.” Adrian replied which made Une speechless.

The three imps then looked at Adrian with jealousy but not to the point that the latter would recognize. Adrian then used his mana to visualize the magic circle in the air so that he can prove that he knows the Quantum Corridor spell. The three could only zip their mouths as they can only swallow their low key insults.

”I will act as the main caster and you guys support me. If one of you messes up then I will not hesitate to report you to Bronx.” Adrian stated with a bit of a commanding and threatening tone.

The three imps could feel the severity and seriousness of the tone in Adrianʼs voice so they shut up. Adrian took control of the situation and directed the formation of using the quantum corridor. The formation they will use is the triangular simultaneous chant with someone at the middle of the triangle.

Adrian will be located in the center while the other three would be at the points of the triangle. Adrian will have to start the chant while the others have to follow him. The Quantum Corridor will be set up as long as they four demons could chant without fail for twenty minutes.

”Your Highness, can you cover for us while we are chanting the spell? Hit the ghost ship with the most intense blizzard you can conjure up so that we will not be targeted.” Adrian asked as they might be seen by the Arch Lich if they release mana.

”That would be no problem for me. Even I do not want those filthy undead to step in the north.” The Ice Queen Elona stated with conviction.

”Let us go then. We should set up the corridor in the area just before they land. It would be safer to us to chant in that area because it would be less likely to hit us with a spell.” Adrian stated as he unfurled his wings which made the other imps full of envy.

Adrianʼs wings is not like any other as the wings of normal imps just look like bat wings. Adrianʼs is a mixture of a dragon and a bird wing with smoke like feathers. Since Imps are the only species in the Daemos that could fly, the wings have been regarded as a symbol of power and beauty. The three imps could only swallow up another loss even though Adrian is really not competing with them.

The Ice Queen Elona conjured up a platform that is like a giant snowflake. She boarded that snowflake that she used to propel herself in the air. Even Adrian has to admit that it looked cool and beautiful at the same time.

There were other flying creatures that came to attack them like snow eagles but Elona just stared at them which made the flying monsters flee. It did not take long for them to reach the destination where they would chant the spell but that also means that the ghost ship is also nearing them.

A black cloud could be seen from the horizon signifying that the undead are coming. Dark clouds are not new to the northern continent but the dark clouds on the horizon carried an ominous wind with it. Elona immediately gathered mana from the surroundings and her own mana.

Adrian immediately signaled that they should start the spell. The area they had to cover is vast which would use all of the resources of the four demons.

The idea behind the Quantum Corridor is actually rather easy to create but difficult to conceptualize. The Quantum Corridor is basically an area where you would go back to the start after reaching the finish line.

The basic concept of it is that when someone reaches the end then space would basically fold which would send those inside back to the start. The most noticeable feature of a Quantum Corridor is that everything looks the same and your perception will tell you that you are actually getting further.

The Quantum Corridor does not only mess with your spatial awareness but also your mind. Only those who are sensitive to the shifting of space would immediately notice the anomaly. Adrian actually prayed that the Arch Lich would at least be susceptible to the quantum corridor to a certain degree.

Adrian put the scenery before him into his memory as this would be cornerstone of the Quantum Corridor. He used the maximum range that they could use as a corridor which is one kilometer per individual meaning the max range of the Quantum Corridor is four kilometers.

Adrian nodded as he chanted the words that is not of the English language but instead the runic language. Since he is a scribe, he has an automatic translate feature which means he is speaking in his language but the AI is translating it into runic language.

When Adrian started the chanting, he is followed by the chants of the other demons. Runic letters started to float around them like music bars and one would only describe it as mystical. The Ice Queen Elona also started her spell as the snow and ice rumbled behind her.

The blizzard that Elona is conjuring is about ten times more deadly than the one she used to repel those who wanted to get close to Aurgelmirʼs forge. She finally let go of all the elemental energy she accumulated and it looked like an avalanche is launched at the ocean. The ocean became clouded in a white bellow of ice and snow.

The blizzard clashed with the dark clouds on the horizon and the ghost ship did not fare well. Despite the ghost ship being half incorporeal, it still slowed down the ghost ship. The Arch Lich, seeing this harsh blizzard, cast a large shield that covered the ghost ship but the said shield would start to crack upon contact of the harsh blizzard.

Sweat could be seen going down Elonaʼs beautiful face as she needed to concentrate to the extreme to keep the blizzard going. The piles of snow from behind Elona could be seen getting lesser and lesser as she channeled all her power to create the blizzard.

The Arch Lich, seeing that the blizzard persisted for about ten minutes, could tell that the blizzard was not natural. The blizzard is even getting harsher and harsher the longer it persisted. The Arch Lich pointed its bony fingers forward and fired off a spell.

”Baleful Lightning.” The Arch Lich Malus stated as pale green sparks started to be generated on the bony arm.

A large pale green lightning bolt then came out of the tip of the finger of the Arch Lich. Despite the pale green lightning coming out of the Arch Lichʼ finger, the width of the lightning became four meters while the length reached until the shore of the northern continent where the Ice Queen stood.

The first blast of baleful lightning luckily missed the Ice Queenʼs location so she did not need to raise a shield or block the attack. The Arch Lichʼ eye sockets became even more illuminated as if it realized something. Another round of lightning is fired towards the northern shore but this time it is accurately targeting the Ice Queenʼs location.

It seems that after a few errors in finding the location of the caster, the Arch Lich has finally pinpointed Elonaʼs general location. The next baleful lightning hit just about a meter away from Elonaʼs spot which made her break concentration a little bit but that small time frame was all it took for the Arch Lich to be sure.

The next baleful lightning is fired off at Elonaʼs exact location so she had no choice but to create barriers of ice. Due to needing to guard, the blizzard that is raging became still as Elona did not channel her full concentration on it. The Arch Lich finally knew that the blizzard is not natural but someone is actually trying to slow them down or make them stop their journey.

”Finger of Undeath” The Arch Lich Malus stated as it pointed towards Elonaʼs location.

”Freezing Aegis” Elona shouted as two dozen layers of large ice shields formed in front of her that is the about ten meters wide and ten meters high.

It seems that the Arch Lichʼ spell has a penetrating effect because twelve ice shield dissolve so easily. The spell of the Arch Lich even reached until the last ice shield of Elona which made her hurriedly cast another shield to at least mitigate the damage she will receive.

”Finally! It is finished.” Adrian shouted as a magic circle covered the area including the ghost ship of the undead.
