Chapter 209: Strange magic towers
Derik notices that sudden change in Lucien's attitude but he didn't mind. He had already concluded that the youth needs the focus so he didn't speak on the matter again. His eyes released a bright green flash as his bone armor was set ablaze and the green flames soon took the shape of a bright green chain tied around his arms and his bone armor!
His eyes revealed killing intentions as he focused his gaze on the powerful magic towers and nothing more.
"There are a few spirit realm masters in there, with about ten thousand mortal realm cultivators down in there... Even If we break down these towers and burst the wall open, we will be forced to take on quite an impressive amount of talented individuals... Are you ready for that?" Derik asked with an indifferent look on his face.
"Just a few thousands? Just don't slow me down" Lucien responded as his shadow spread wide and a thousand demonic beasts appeared from within, Joining Derik's three thousand undying undead army to make it a four thousand undying force!
Seeing this, Derik was stunned since he didn't think Lucien's power has even reached the levels of the underworld. He couldn't help but admit that he has been looking down on Lucien all this time and he confirmed that this ally may be more capable than he thinks since he didn't use this ability in their previous battle.
Xiu!
Lucien didn't bother waiting for Derik and charged forward he was currently using the Azure dragon mode and even though his time limit has been increased due to his increase in the realm, it still didn't mean he had all the time in the world.
The moment he was just a few hundred meters away from the defensive walls, All the towers focused on him, blasting at him indiscriminately!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Lucien's body twisted and turned in inhumane ways as he evade many beams of mana, approaching the magic torrent really fast!
Just when he was a hundred meters away from the defensive walls the magic towers lit up and they began shooting two beams of mana each!
"What the hell!" Lucien muttered as tried to advance but he saw no space to move. The magic torrents ignored the undead army below, focusing on him! Each attack was released to predict his actions making dodging even hard for him!
Xiu!!!
After retreating for a while Lucien bit his lips and decided to take the step forward, no matter the consequences! His body drifted back at first and then it shot forward at astonishing speed!
Bang!
Bang!
At that point, two mana beams were fired with each heading towards Lucien. To deal with it Lucien quickly dropped his attitude, going lower than the attack and surprisingly finding himself in between two mana beams. Almost instantly the two beams surging from above and below began rising, closing in on Lucien. Before he could escape from the sides, two beams of light could be seen shooting from the sides traping him within, and giving him only one option! Move forward.
From the enclosed space, Lucien could feel the intense aura surging uncontrollably! He could feel the air tremble as the remaining tower strangely focused their energy at one point, forming a massive ball of unstable mama, three times that size of the original beam!
At this point, Lucien could only feel the cold hands of death placed on his shoulder as the massive ball of mana rolled towards the exit point!
Was he going to die like this?
"Not without a fight!" Lucien roared as he punched forward, creating a massive dragon fist head of him, smashing into the massive mana ball, creating a massive shockwave!
Peng!
Peng!
Peng!
Sounds of shattering dragon scales could be heard as the blue dragon scales on Lucien's body began shattering as blood rolled down his nostrils, eyes, and ears!
"Aaarrrrrggggghhh!" Lucien could feel his bones breaking as his body felt weakened.
"You are getting cocky kid, jumping off without me... I only see death, when I look into your future!" Derik's voice echoed from behind as a large skeletal hand appeared out of nowhere and grabbed onto the big mana ball, lessening the pressure on Lucien.
With Derik's help, Lucien could finally breathe but he was in a very bad condition!
"take a step back kid... This is for the big boys" Derik's voice suddenly became too close.
Turning around Lucien realized Derik was standing behind him and before he could even react, Derik grabbed him by the shoulder and effortlessly flung him back!
At that moment the dragon claw holding back the ball of mana vanished, leaving the skeleton hand to deal with it!
"You are dealing with me now!" Derik said with a frown as he forced the massive bone hand to redirect the direction of the mana ball.
Boom!
A mushroom-shaped cloud appeared not too far from the battlefield but Derik was too focused on the magic towers and frowned. He could feel the presence of something else manipulating these towers from the shadows. Even a spirit realm master will die here if they are adamant about raiding this stronghold.
"It's the creed leader... He is a demigod just a few steps away from becoming a god... He must possess the creation authority like Rakuzen and that's why he can replicate structures only Rakuzen has bestowed me with and that's how he can control these towers from a distance!" Lucien said while breathing heavily.
Hearing this at first Lucien was a bit confused, why would a demigod need to go through all this stress of having minions and having weaker people do his job? If he were a demigod he would have subdued the entire continent by now.
In his world, Demigods were not suppressed by the world Like gods but after fighting the emperor tier magic beast, Lucien was sure that there were almost no limitations placed on demigod beings in this world but for some reason, there are no surviving demigods apart from the creed leader alive!
