Chapter 1410 Battle On The Sky Bridge -Part 3
Baal took a slow breath in even while the fireballs were coming in hot. Yet, it was still too close for comfort for some of the Demopolis Army as they were not as fearless as the commanders and captains.
But with a huff and a puff from Baal, all the fireballs froze in midair unable to consume the magical energy that Baal had emitted. His breath of frigid ice had caused those who were worried about imminent destruction to let out a sigh of relief. Almost every Demon Rat Mage on the scene was surprised by the change in development.
They were fairly certain that the fireballs alongside with the absorption spell should have dealt the counterblow they were all waiting for. Even Prideblood, the Demon Rat Mage General were surprised by how his unique spell which he had infused and spread through the Demon Rat Mages had been rendered useless.
Could there actually be a type of magic that was capable of stopping his unique absorption spell or the spell had reached its upper limits and stopped working? There were so many questions in his head but the sight of those ice cold static fireballs in the air was a testament that there was someone who was superior in magic to him.
And what’s surprising was how the environment was not affected by Baal’s Breath of Frigid Ice and that meant he had precise manipulation of magic that was top tier. Even Shiva who was supposed to be the pinnacle of ice element casters, the Shaitan would have to bow down to his ability to cast a wide area of effect of magic and not disrupt the surroundings.
Thus, this allowed the entire Demopolis Vanguard to move forth without too much of a hassle. On the other hand, the Demon Rats had anticipated those frozen fireballs to be countered and blown back towards them but it was not happening. They remained as they were while the Demopolis Vanguard drove through.
Hence, the Demon Rat Mages had begun casting their next set of spells, using lightning which would not interfere with the frozen fireballs. Thinking it would be useful since the lightning strikes should result in a direct attack, the mages poured as much mana as they could to blast it out from their spell circles.
“And here I thought they would create natural thunder and lightning.” Kiva scoffed and subsequently laughed at how stupid the Demon Mages would feel if they know what was to come next. Jin and his other two companions kept quiet and waited for the stupidity to surface into reality. As those lightning bolts were being sent out of the magic circles, some of the Demon Rat Mages who were slower in their casting found out something crucial, including those who were sensitive to mana in the air.
There was still a lingering magical spell in the midst of this battlefield but the presence was so minute that not even the Mage General was able to sense it except for a few. Regardless, those mages were not able to report as well since the magic presence of those frozen fireballs was so dense that most of the ‘sensitive’ mages shrugged it off.
It was only until the first batch of mages who fired their volley of lightning strikes did they realise what Baal had been hiding. The lightning bolts that were spitting out of their magical circles had been solidified into ice. Lightning which is supposed to be moving at the speed of light had been frozen by Baal’s continuous casting of his spell. The reason why he did not allow the frozen fireballs to dissipate and be destroyed. Its massive magic signature had confused the Demon Rat Mages and their mana sense, allowing him to hide his ice magic in the midst of this already chaotic battlefield.
Baal could have used destructive earth shattering magic but that was not the point of this particular match of magic. He needed to show finesse to prove his strength and superiority against the Demon Rats. (Besides, he knows that a certain bellator would hate to see that she lost her chance in mass destruction.) The Demon Rat Mages were eventually killed by absolute sub zero temperatures as the frozen magic circles subsequently iced their mana flow as well.
The remaining mages tried to stop their casting once they learnt of the situation and yet there was nothing they could do as the ice spell had already permeated through their shield barriers with the frozen lightning bolts as the catalyst. The Demon Rat Mages maintaining the shield barriers were not spared by the frigid ice as they were the next to die while the rest of the Mages tried to make a secondary barrier to ensure they would not be encased in cold hard water crystals.
“I have to admit to your precision and cunningness.” Peppers finally blurted out praise despite her being quite reluctant to do so through the System Channel.
“For the Mage Bellator to take her time to praise me, I believe that is an honour I would not forget.” Baal chuckled knowing that her powers and potential were undoubtedly infinite if not for her restraints. This was because for someone to have access to the universal pool of magic had been deemed as a person to be considered, capable of defeating Greater Beings without much trouble.
Once she had managed to permanently deal with her weakness, it was possible for Jin to have a godly being at his side as well. That was assuming she was willing to tackle her weakness and the only way Baal could think of was of great trials and tribulations.
“We are reaching soon,” Kiva said as he saw the Demon Rat’s physical barricades were coming up close.
“Just put us near the barricades. Do not need to crash us over.” Jin said as he readied himself, knowing not to underestimate his opponents even though they were presented to be weaker to them individually. Yet, he did not forget what Transquick had said about those who had been ‘infected’ by a copious amount of lifestream energy. They might still be a force to reckon with and he had to be careful.
