Chapter 572 There’s Nothing Romantic About Mages Beating Each Other Up
Elementization was one of Roland’s several trump cards.
They had seen many elemental creatures and Legendary Mages but the elementization of a human was a first for them.
What were the special characteristics of elemental creatures?
Complete single-elemental resistance. For example: fire elementals were born immune to fire magic, and if someone used fire magic on them, it would actually strengthen them.
Also, elemental creatures gave the impression that they only knew a single type of elemental magic.
For example, a fire elemental only knowing fire magic.
They had never seen an elemental creature use other types of magic.
But… this was just a misconception. Because 99.9% of elemental creatures in the main plane were just creatures, not intelligent beings.
They weren’t too different from magical beasts.
Magical beasts only knew a limited variety of magic. This was the same for most elemental creatures on the main plane.
But in essence, the truly intelligent elemental creatures knew how to use other non-elemental magic.
Otherwise, the profession of Warlord or Sword Dancer would not be the strongest combat profession among the elves. And all the human Mages in the main plane were deceived by the “common sense” of the main plane, thinking that elemental creatures could not use magic outside of their own element.
Looking around at the transparent chains of dimensional anchors emerging one after another, and then looking at the “ice man” in front of him, this Legendary Spatial Mage looked impatient. “You’re beyond common sense.” The old yellow-robed Mage looked irritated, and he knew things were a little bit troublesome.
This would waste some more of his time.
“What is reasonable is real; that which is real is reasonable[1].” Roland smiled. “This Elder of the Spatial Magic Tower, I wonder if you are willing to let me go?”
Hearing the threat in Roland’s words, this yellow-robed old Mage looked at the extremely wide range of Dimensional Anchor around him. He took a deep breath and said with a cold look, “Hehe, think a Dimensional Anchor can scare me off? Roland, it’s true that we asked you to come over to help with something. There’s no need to be so hostile.”
“If you want help, just ask properly. What’s the point of setting me up?” Roland said indifferently. “And to send people out to chase after us immediately after we left, you guys are quite interesting!”
“The Red Magic Tower is not where you should stay,” the yellow-robed Mage said slowly. “We can see that your body has the aura of space. If you specialize in spatial magic, your future achievements will be unlimited. We used such means just to keep you around and make you one of us.”
The yellow-robed Mage spoke with such sincerity that even he himself was almost moved.
If it were a young child who was not deeply involved in the world, he would be suspicious, and even think that the other party was a little radical, but understandable.
However, Roland was not so easily fooled.
He only knew one thing; if they really wanted to rope him in, they should have done it the Red Magic Tower’s way, rather than sending people to spy on and capture him.
“I think if I were a fool, there’s a chance I’d become one of you.” Roland gave a middle finger without hesitation. It was an uncivilized and rude act, but what need was there for civility and politeness toward the Spatial Magic Tower’s actions. “Now, please, sir, I’m leaving, peacefully and quietly. Good day to you and good day to me.”
“What will happen if I move?”
Roland said seriously, “I will kill you.”
“You wouldn’t dare, and you don’t have that power.” The yellow-robed Mage grunted. “I’m a Legendary Mage, you’re just a Master Mage. Besides, even if I was killed by you, not to mention the Monochrome Magic Tower, the Red Magic Tower would take the initiative to hand you over to us.”
When Roland heard this, he chuckled.
“You are a Legend and I am only a Master, but I pose a threat to you now,” Roland said rather smugly. “If you were the Great Elder of the Red Magic Tower, would you not protect a genius who could threaten a Legend at the Master level? My potential is much higher than yours,
got it!?”
Anyone who was slightly older always had a sense of urgency.
It was the fear of being overtaken by the later generations.
This was the same for the yellow-robed Mage. When he heard Roland’s words, he knew that the young man in front of him was a top choice, both in terms of mentality and intelligence.
Roland had a solid world view, which formed a tough spirit, and wouldn’t just be encouraged by words from the outside.
He also had enough intelligence to know his own strengths and be more aware of the path he wanted to take in the future.
Such a young man, if he were to appear in their Monochrome Magic Tower, then naturally, they would also protect him at all costs.
All the more reason why this young one should be destroyed if he couldn’t become one of them.
The yellow-robed Mage’s face was cold as he reached out and fired a small blue fireball.
This would be none other than Roland’s self-destructing fireball.
The Goddess of Magic had previously released this spell model after it was offered and then withdrew it, but still, many Mages had seen it and learned it as well.
Against the ice element, naturally, the fire element was the best, followed by light magic or divine magic.
This fireball was as big as a basketball and flew extremely fast, and when it whirled past, the frost on the ground even vaporized.
After firing the fireball, the yellow-robed mage also immediately used Spider Web as well as Mind Shock.
None of the three spells were simple, especially the last two, which were mainly designed to make Roland lose his evasive ability.
The fact that three different kinds of spells were instantly released in about half a second, and none of them were spatially based, all non-specialized magic, was proof enough of the yellow-robed Mage’s excellence.
Even Roland could only instantly cast two different low-level spells.
Just by looking at this move, one could tell that the yellow-robed Mage’s base strength was far stronger than Roland’s.
However… this was still of little use.
Mind Shock, mental magic, hit first though it was cast later. It rushed to Roland in an instant and then directly hit Roland’s soul.
Mind magic was a very practical type of suppression magic.
Although its power wasn’t great, its advantage was in its extreme speed. The colorless and invisible strike was quite stealthy, and even if it couldn’t cause fatal damage to the opponent, if it hit, sending the opponent into a trance shouldn’t be a problem.
If it was used on an ordinary person, it would truly be a terrifying spell of soul-rending proportions.
However, the mind magic that hit Roland didn’t even cause a ripple.
It was as if nothing had happened.
The sight left the yellow-robed Mage a little puzzled.
After that came Spider Web.
