Chapter 360: The Debut of the Unquenchable me!
As the mes surged, Arnol swiftly maneuvered, contorting in an unnatural stance, evading the attack at a speed surpassing the mes'' motion.
Even though Arnol had previously attempted the methods Edweil had advised, deeming the rumored hellfire less fearsome, these methods merely subdued it. Any area tainted by these mes requiredplete extraction to prevent harm...
Unless necessary, he didn''t want these mes anywhere near him.
"Such rapid reflexes..." Lynn marveled inwardly. The Archbishop before them wasn''t the most formidable opponent encountered, but he was undeniably tricky.
This speed and powerbined with divine spells posed a significant threat. A moment''spse against an elemental grand wizard not well-versed in closebat could lead to instant demise!
Despite the urgency, Lynn refrained from hastily employing thest-resort Unquenchable Fire or Laser Magic.
Given the potential widespread destruction and coteral damage both magics could cause, and the criticality of rted intel, their use demanded absolute certainty of a decisive strike...
In contemtion, over a hundred magical missiles materialized around Lynn.
[Magic - Barrage], a refined Zero-Ring spell, yet the potency of the technique depended on the caster. In Lynn''s hands, it often wielded the power to turn decay into wonder.If speed couldn''t match up, victory would arise through quantity!
With a mental shift, the orbiting magical projectiles surged forth, forming an incessant barrage, sealing off every direction Arnol could dodge.
"Attempting the same trick again?" Arnol, having suffered a severe setback before, didn''t dare let these seemingly harmless magical constructs approach. A terrifying aura enveloped him as the swiftly approaching magical missiles detonated prematurely...
Fortunately, an electromaic field had already formed. Lynn raised a hand, a hint of lightning flickering at their fingertips. Leveraging the dense airborne conductive elements, they transcended levels to employ a Five-Ring spell!
[Thunder Abyss - Storm of Lightning]
Amidst the intery of electricity, a tempest of thunder covered the entire area, fierce arcs of lightning dancing like a dense spider web in the air.
Even though Arnol stood beyond the electromaic domain, the lightning''s speed rendered it instantaneous, spreading to the surroundings. Despite his speed, dodging was impossible...
Instantly, Arnol conjured a magical barrier around himself, repelling the encroaching lightning. However, this sustained consumption wasn''t what he had anticipated...
A swift resolution was imperative!
Realizing this, Arnol hesitated no longer. He charged abruptly, surging into the electromaic field.
"Dragon''s Breath!" Facing Arnol''s charge, Lynn stepped back, a searing stream of fire expanding rapidly, attempting to force the opponent back with wide-ranging me magic.
This time, Arnol showed no intention of avoidance. He braved the scorching mes, charging forth. The potent and eerie white phosphorus mes continued devouring the power of the spell barrier. Simultaneously, Arnol swung his hefty sword...
Everything transpired in the blink of an eye. Lynn seemed unprepared or perhaps never anticipated the direct charge. The sword swiftly pierced through their body, transversing from abdomen to torso...
However, as the sword prated, Arnol''s pupils slightly contracted. It wasn''t the sensation of the de slicing through, and Lynn''s face betrayed no hint of panic or fear.
At that exact moment, a hand firmly grasped his shoulder. Swiftly, the unquenchable me burst forth from Lynn''s body, transforming them into an expanding ball of fire, hurtling toward the close-in Arnol...
Divine Spell - [Earth''s Guardian]
Within a fraction of a second, Arnol could only resort to this one divine spell. His whiteplexion shifted to an ashen grey...
This Five-Ring Divine Spell - [Earth''s Guardian] could construct a sturdy stone shield on the body''s surface. Empowered by divine magic, it could even withstand some powerful spells'' impact!
Arnol didn''tprehendbustion or conductors, but he understood one principle: stone couldn''t burn or conduct electricity. This mitigated the damage from the two most threatening spells!
However, he remained unaware that Lynn didn''t employ white phosphorus fire this time but a more perilous and potent Unquenchable me - Trifluorochlorine!
A force capable of incinerating everything, ruthlessly seizing electrons!
Previously, Lynn deliberately baited with white phosphorus fire, creating misinformation, awaiting this opportunity!
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
A piercing scream echoed through the skies. Arnol''s agonizing howls resonated, distinctly feeling the mes burning on his stone-coated skin, even seeping into his flesh and bones...
"Arnol!" Pulson, engaged inbat with Raphael, momentarily diverted attention upon hearing the screams. After repelling Raphael with [Holy Light Rush], he hastily cast a spell for rescue...
[Divine Bestowal - Refreshing Shower]
The mist imbued with divine radiance instantly enveloped Arnol. Using water to douse fire wasmon knowledge, and though they estimated this hellfire couldn''t be easily quenched, temporary suppression should have been feasible.
However, reality diverged drastically from Pulson''s expectations. Upon contact with Arnol''s body, the Unquenchable me, instead of subsiding, erupted into a fiercer ze. The howling Arnol detonated, disintegrating into a mist of flesh and blood...
Pulson stood there, utterly stunned. He couldn''t fathom how, despitemon belief, water didn''t extinguish the fire. How did it lead to such a detonation?
Lynn''s figure emerged on the battlefield''s other side. ncing at the now disintegrated Arnol, then turning to Pulson, they jestingly remarked, "Seems like the hierarchy isn''t as solid within the Church. Didn''t expect you''d go this hard on a colleague..."
Raphael, nearby, rolled his eyes. He knew well the nature of the Unquenchable me. Anyone attempting to douse it with water would suffer the fate simr to Arnol, torn into a cluster of flesh.
Utilizing misinformation to eliminate an Archbishop directly, a faint smile graced Lynn''s lips.
Otherwise, with the opponent''s extraordinary speed or continuous release of those sword energies from afar, winning wouldn''t have been an easy feat.>
