Chapter 511 - Death Spiral
511 Death Spiral
Abel couldn’t help but frown. He knew how fast Johnson had become after the ‘Extra Fast’ enchantment. He thought it would be a threat to an Elite Wizard, but it seemed like this threat was too small.
“Wizard Cyril, let’s go back to the 6 star magic circle!” Abel turned to Wizard Cyril and said.
“Ok, Grandmaster Abel!” Said Wizard Cyril even though he was a little confused.
Wizard Cyril flashed inside the 6 star magic circle. Through the transparent light circles, they could still see the fight outside.
Abel did not follow immediately. Instead, he commanded Johnson through the Soul chain. “Johnson, use the Death Spiral!”
Johnson’s massive body suddenly came to a halt. It was around 200 meters from Wizard Cyril. Afterward, it immediately began to viciously spin around.
Wizard Jallel didn’t know what this iron monster was doing, but it was a good chance for him to attack. A ‘Blizzard’ pattern flashed in front of him, and dark clouds began to emerge above Johnson.
Johnson did not dodge–instead, it kept spinning. Back when Johnson was a stone giant, It’s death spiral attack could strike any being within 500 meters. Since now it gained a new body as well as the Extra Fast, it’s spinning speed has increased multiple times.
It’s attack range had also increased dramatically. As snowflakes began to pour down from the dark clouds above, it exploded.
The countless iron balls on Johnson were shot out by the massive momentum, just like a bursting flower of iron.
The moment before Johnson had unleashed the death spiral, Abel and Black Wind flashed into the 6 star magic circle.
When Wizard Jellal saw Abel flashing back to the 6 star magic circle, his heart tensed up. If Abel didn’t come out of the 6 star magic circle again, he would never have the chance to kill him.
He only had 3 days in the Holy Continent, and one day had already passed. He didn’t know when he could come here again.
As Wizard Jellal was getting desperate, beams of dark shadow shot out from the spinning body of Johnson, and they flew straight towards him.
He sensed danger, so he quickly flashed to 300 meters away. But the moment he reappeared, the iron ball was already right in front of his eyes.
He didn’t have time to do another flash, not even take out a ‘move in a flash’ scroll from his portal bag. The only thing he could do was to take the hit.
Wizard Jellal had always been in the front line of battle, so he was used to these purely physical impacts. His experience told him, the speed of those iron balls reflected the impact they would give. There was no way they could penetrate his defense.
As those iron balls landed on the ice crystal armor of Wizard Jellal, blasts of ice crystal emerged. The iron balls were weakened. Wizard Jellal also had 2 layers of passive magic guards, which absorbed the momentum of many iron balls, making them fall to the ground.
Wizard Jellal’s ‘Chilling Armour’ also automatically fired back an Ice bolt to Johnson. It was a built in ability.
Johnson soon realized his Mana Burn effect began to come into effect. Wizard Jellal had been struck, so it quickly stopped spinning. In that split moment, it’d body had turned from 10 meters to 6 meters. A large number of iron balls had covered every inch of land 1000 meters out.
Johnson’s decrease in size did not affect its speed. It effortlessly dodged the Ice Bolt. This was the biggest weak point of ice spells. They were extremely slow when it came to flying.
Johnson did not stop. Instead, it speeded straight towards Wizard Jellal and an arrow shot out from its crossbow.
Wizard Jellal was lucky that he had only been struck by one iron ball, but at the same time, he was in trouble. His mana was draining fast.
It would only take 5 points of mana flash, but Johson’s ‘Mana Burn’ was too strong. It had almost cleared out every bit of mana from Wizard Jellal.
If he only had one more second, he would be able to flash away again, but Johson did not give him that chance. Its decrease in size did not affect its ability to use that giant bow. With an air penetrating sound, an arrow flew right towards Wizard Jellal.
Since this arrow had only just been installed, it did not inherit the full power of the crossbow. Still, it was not slow.
Without a single bit of mana, Wizard Jellal took out a bottle of potion in this life and death situation. It was an extremely rare Recovery Potion. Normally, a Wizard would rarely use it since it could decrease one’s life span as a side effect.
But by that point, he had no choice. Life span was important, but he was faced with death. It was worth it to sacrifice 10 years of his life for a tiny bit of mana.
Wizard Jellal was fast as he drank the potion–almost like lighting. One could only achieve this after countless years of battle.
But no matter how fast he could drink a potion, it would still take some time for it to come to effect. Half a second, at least, but by that point, the arrow was already right in front of his eyes.
Suddenly Wizard Jellal made an expected move. He placed his magic staff in front of him and blocked the arrow.
Although it was not perfect, Wizard Jellal’s calculations were still precise with his vast amounts of battle experience.
The magic staff viciously blasted outward like a bunch of explosives, but it was not fire sparkles that emerged. It was ice crystals. A large number of ice crystals appeared in front of Wizard Jellal.
This move had cleared out almost all the magic power he just regained again. By that point, the only thing in his mind was to escape the moment he regained enough magic power. He no longer wanted to fight this scary monster.
The arrow was stuck between an ice crystal, but the massive momentum still knocked Wizard Jellal backward for a few steps. At that moment, he realized his mana was gone again.
Wizard Jellal was screaming in his heart. What power was this? How could it drain a Wizard’s magic power with every strike? He had never seen this ability even in other places, how come the Holy Continent had something like this.
He had just sacrificed 10 years of his life for this little bit of mana, but it was gone in no time once again. His magic staff had also blasted open into ice crystals. He really had sacrificed a lot.
By that point, Johson was only about 10 meters from him. He no longer had any magic power, and no time for recovery–not even one second.
Wizard Jellal grabbed his chest, and suddenly a 3 meters tall iron puppet appeared in front of him. The iron puppet viciously struck down in front of him with its giant shield.
The 6 meters tall Johson couldn’t care less about the 3 meter puppet. Its only target was Wizard Jellal. The moment Johson’s body made contact with the shield, the iron puppet was blasted far far away.
