556 Even a Demigod Has to Dodge (1/2)
The process had to be guided with one's mental power, which could take a long time.
In order to improve the absorption speed, one had to build a floating city with the bricks to create a large area of Magic Power Affluence. Then, one had to contain and compress the magic power with magic arrays to prevent it from leaking.
In such a way, the master of the floating city would have a piece of legendary ”equipment” that could quickly replenish his mana, fly in the sky, and serve as a sturdy stronghold.
He would be the best in terms of offense, defense, duration, and mobility.
Having such a thing in the main plane would almost be like cheating.
The bricks of magic power, as the fundamental materials to build a floating city, each contained an enormous amount of magic power and didn't have any side effects.
The case was entirely different when such a brick was inserted into an elemental body.
The flame man that Roland turned into instantly grew to 2.5 meters tall.
Also, the flames turned from dark red to blue.
The sand nearby was scorched by the shocking heat.
All the sand within a six-meter radius of Roland had been melted into a boiling pond where bubbles were popping up.
Because elements didn't have any mass, Roland simply stood on the pond of magma as a man of flames without sinking.
Also, the blue fireball in his hand was expanding much more quickly than before.
An infinite number of comments were posted in the stream channel.
”Sweet mother of god. What did he just stuff into his body?”
”I took a snapshot. I think it was a white brick.”
”That must be a special item for this quest.”
”It might not be a special item but some sort of alchemical product. At this moment, Roland knows the Mage much better than anybody else. The other Mages, including O'Neal, might not know half as much as Roland does.”
”I don't care what it is. Don't you think that Roland looks awesome right now? That's Elemental Embodiment! Should I consider restarting as a Mage?”
”Do you think he can win? The enemy seems very strong, although Roland doesn't look weak either.”
Everybody in the stream channel had the same question.
They weren't on the battlefield, and they didn't know how strong the black angel was exactly.
But they could tell that the boss was formidable with the space attack he launched earlier.
Naturally, the black angel sensed Roland's change as clearly as the players did.
He moved his fingers again and launched another cross attack with spatial crevices.
However, his attack range was significantly reduced this time.
The previous attack was two kilometers long, but this one was only about one kilometer.
In the next second, Roland took another brick of magic power out of his system Backpack and inserted it into his body.
Watching Roland turn into a massive man of flames again, the players in the stream channel were lost for words.
The black angel opposite him was just as surprised.
This time, he didn't move his fingers anymore but waited patiently.
Three seconds later, the blue fireball that Roland was raising became more than nine meters in diameter.
It was so bright that a radius of hundreds of meters was illuminated.
The dreadful temperature expanded the lava pond below Roland's feet to ten meters in diameter.
The air nearby was heated and quickly pushed up, and the cold air farther away filled the vacuum, forming intense air currents that eventually escalated into unimaginable gales.
In such an atmosphere, Roland raised the horrifying massive fireball in his hands.
He looked more like a boss at this moment than the black angel did.
Sensing that the magic power in the brick in his body had been completely transferred to the fireball, Roland subconsciously took a deep breath, even though elemental creatures didn't need to.
Then, he exerted his strength and threw out the fireball.
The movement of throwing was just a psychological hint. What really launched the fireball was his immense mental power.
After the fireball was thrown out, it charged at the black castle ahead unstoppably, covered in the high-temperature air currents that made it look like a comet flying at high speed.
The black angel stared at the blue fireball as it got closer and closer. Then, he flapped his wings and soared to the high altitudes quickly.
The blue fireball vanished suddenly the moment it hit the castle.
Everybody was stunned, including the viewers at the stream channel.
But in the next second, a dazzling flash occurred.
Half a second later, miserable cries burst out.
”Ah, my eyes…”
”S*it, I can't see!”
Roland's teammates weren't dead yet. Normal people could live more than ten minutes after being cut into halves from the waist, not to mention the professionals who were highly sturdy.
They had been watching the fireball fly while holding up their body with their hands.
However, they didn't expect the nuclear flash of the explosion to be so astounding.
Before they were done crying, rumbling noises carried to them from the distance
A ball of light quickly rose and grew larger in size like the sun.
The rumbling noises pressed close quickly.
The Shield Warrior watched the bright red waves of air flooding to him like a tsunami at an unbelievable speed.
When the air waves reached them, all eight pieces of their bodies were carbonized and set ablaze in two seconds.
Their ashes then rolled forward along with the airwaves.
