Chapter 574 - Elemental Creatures in Their Domain Have Almost No Weaknesses (2/2)
The violent explosion was mixed with a large amount of vaporized fog.
“Now that should melt him.” The Legendary Mage in the air gently breathed out.
He was finishing his sentence when suddenly a long ice blade broke through the fog, cutting a perfect semicircle and chopping at the Mage in the air.
The Mage froze for a moment and immediately teleported to the ground more than twenty meters behind him. After the long white ice blade missed, a huge figure rushed out of the thick fog.
Unlike the hulking, oval-shaped Elemental Lord from before, the ice figure in front of them was significantly smaller, only about fifteen meters tall.
But it had a clear human appearance and a torso identical to that of a human.
The five Legendary Mages all froze as the huge ice-man that rushed out was even faster than before. The Mage had just teleported to the ground and the ice-man had already rushed to a position more than twenty meters before him, striking with a forward vertical slash.
Translucent, blue, and at least thirteen meters long, the ice blade chopped down from the air.
It was fast and furious.
The swinging trajectory of the ice blade was barely visible.
But this Legendary Mage was not surprised or afraid; for Mages at their level, vision and dynamic visual acuity were no longer too important.
They could sense the opponent’s intention to attack with mental power alone, scattered around them.
He teleported back another thirty meters or so when the ice blade was about to hit.
Then just a moment after his teleportation, the ice-man seemed to smile slightly… It also teleported at the same time.
Right as the Mage finished teleporting and alighted on the ground, he saw that the ice-man had also teleported at the same time, and it kept its blade in a downward swinging position. What the hell!
With only that thought flashing through his head, the Mage was struck by the massive ice blade.
The blade was taller than his entire body and almost as wide.
The blade with its arching curve didn’t so much as cleave as it did smash directly into his Magic Shield
He was slammed into the ice with his shield, the ice blade hitting the ground completely, the massive mass impacting into the ice and then reverberating back.
The ice blade’s nearly two-meter-long blade broke inch by inch, sending large chunks of ice and stone flying in all directions.
With one blow, only a small part of the hilt of the ice blade was left.
And the shattered ice blade fragments quickly “grew” where they landed, creaking and cackling to form a solid ice wall that was over ten meters long, over six meters high, and about two meters wide.
“Barnard!”
The other four Legendary Mages were shocked.
They looked at the iceman, who was still temporarily in a forward step slashing pose, with shocked eyes. With such a large physique, it was surprising that he could also use Teleportation.
And… the timing of the spell was so well chosen, and the distance of the teleportation was so perfectly grasped. “Careful, he’s obviously intelligent now; the boy’s woken up.”
The old Legendary Mage named Greene’s face was filled with shock as he teleported into midair and shouted.
At the sound of his voice, Roland stood upright and swung his hands to the right as he gripped the hilt of his sword.
During the swing, a large number of ice elements could be seen condensing on the hilt of the blade, and in less than half a second, the shattered blade had materialized again, while the blade slashed into this Mage who was talking in midair. He was sent flying like a baseball being struck.
Unfortunately, the Legendary Mage’s Magic Shield wasn’t easy to break, and Greene was only sent flying down to the ground, smashing many icicles before getting back up on his own. He was only a little dizzy, but not at all injured.
Then the fifteen-meter tall ice-man seemed to frown.
The ice-man at this time was Roland.
The ridiculous giant Elemental Lord from before was just a special guard mechanism generated by the ice element itself after Roland’s mental power went rampant.
If the terrifying magic volume brought by one magic cube brick could be easily controlled by Roland, then the magic volume brought by two magic bricks was already beyond what Roland could control.
It was too much. This was the reason why he had now become about fifteen meters tall; his mental power only allowed him to control so much cold magic; any more, and he would lose control. Oepmop was on the sidelines and saw that Greene was also sent flying. He finally became furious. “What are you still looking at! Do something to get this kid, dead or alive. If we keep this up, the ice domain will continue to get bigger and it will be even harder for us to fight.”
“Got it!”
Greene, who was already on his feet, and the other two Legendary Mages immediately began to fly high into the air.
And one of them spread apart a Dimensional Anchor.
It had a greater range than Roland’s Dimensional Anchor and there were more translucent chains.
“This kid can teleport, so limit his mobility first. We’ll be on the back foot if he’s this big, runs fast, and can teleport.”
As expected of a Legendary Mage, he had his own profound understanding of how to control a battle.
“Greene, get the summoned beasts to help.”
Greene nodded, and with a wave of his hands, three stone golems appeared in front of him.
Although he majored in spatial magic, he would occasionally find time to practice summoning magic. After all, he was once a summoning apprentice, and he still had some affection for summoning magic.
The three stone golems were quite tall, roughly coming up to the chin of Roland’s ice giant form.
As soon as these three stone golems appeared, they rushed at Roland.
They didn’t run as fast as Roland but managed to get in front of Greene and the other Mage.
As for the other two Mages-one clapped his hands and a gray barrier directly enveloped Roland.
Imprisonment, a level-five abjuration spell.
It could protect the caster and also imprison one’s enemies.
Roland was inside violently slashing at the inner layer of the barrier with his ice blade, and soon the barrier cracked.
The power of the ice element was simply too great for a non-specialist’s barrier to trap him for long.
The three stone golems arrived just as the barrier broke, and they swarmed Roland the ice giant, using their advantage in numbers and weight to pounce on Roland, and pinned him to the ground.
The four giants kept rolling on the ground.
The other Mage kept making magical gestures with both hands, rather quickly, and two seconds later, finally finished casting the spell.
A red light appeared in the black night sky above him, which then grew brighter and brighter, and about three seconds later, a burning meteor was seen falling diagonally from the sky, drawing a dark red flame trail.
With great difficulty, Roland kicked away the three stone golems that had no intelligence, only instinct, and as soon as he looked up he saw the huge fire meteor smashing down on his head.
Rumble!
The terrifying impact crashed the ice surface into a large crater with a radius of at least thirty meters, and then the meteor also exploded, spreading flames around it in a radius of at least five hundred meters or so.
The ice was scorched and a large amount of water vapor rose.
“Now he should be dead.”
The Mage who cast the fire meteor breathed in relief.
The rest of the group had serious expressions and didn’t look too confident.
The flames in the pit quickly disappeared, and a large amount of water flowed to the bottom of the pit, followed by a humanoid water elemental standing upright once again.
At the same time… the water elemental’s body was gradually turning into ice.
“Damn! Elementization is too disgusting.” Oepmop bristled in anger.
The fear within Green’s mind was once again amplified. “We have no chance of winning if we fight in the domain of an elemental creature. How about… going first, or at least fighting him outside the domain.”
The other three looked annoyed when they heard this.
