Supreme Magus novel Chapter 4218

Chapter 4218: Third Element (Part 1)

Nyka consumed another quarter of her blood core to conjure the tier five Blood Magic spell, Storm Lord. What looked like a crimson thundercloud emerged from her body and intercepted Vosto’s stinger.

The water element drenched and froze the many segments that connected the stinger to the tail, while the air element conjured violent electrical discharges that seeped past the armor’s protection through its joints.

The earth element made the Blood Magic spell as solid and heavy as lead, altering the stinger’s trajectory and restricting its movements. On top of that, the life force component of Storm Lord twisted and pulled the Ishara’s tail, akin to a tight leash.

Vosto’s stinger missed Nyka by a mile and struck Estrizo, piercing through his armor and flooding his body with virulent acid.

After the hit, the light element of Storm Lord stimulated Estrizo’s metabolism, speeding the acid through his bloodstream. The fire element nebulized the acid, making it corrode the armor of both Isharas, and the darkness element sapped the Divine Beasts’ strength.

Nyka moved under the cover of the frenzied movements of Vosto and Estrizo to disentangle themselves and activated Bloodsport’s enchantments. The war mace’s gravity field increased its weight so much that no one but an undead could have lifted it.

Even Nyka grunted with effort, but when she struck Estrizo’s head, the strength of the blow and the relentless pressure applied by the Immortal Ruler spell burst his head open like a watermelon

"Estrizo!" The other Isharas cried the name of their fallen friend and unleashed their spells in unison.

With two of them dead, the Divine Beasts couldn’t cast Silverwing’s spells even if Imosi managed to retreat. Even worse, another one of the most promising children of Selkis was gone, and with him all the potential of his unique bloodline.

’Fuck, fuck, fuck!’ Nyka thought as she saw the incoming barrage of tier five spells.

There were too many of them to dodge them all, and each spell had an area of effect wide enough to render Blink a waste of mana. Yet she did it anyway.

Nyka recalled both Storm Lord and Immortal Ruler to her and Blinked towards her spells. She was still in the middle of the magical onslaught, but she was incomparably safer than before.

Immortal Ruler formed a cocoon around her while Storm Lord altered its density to turn from a prison into a barrier, softening the incoming blows and absorbing the shockwaves released by the Isharas’ spells.

The concussive blasts of the tier fire spells sent the vampire crashing onto the ground. Little was left of her Blood Magic spells, but at least she had come out of it unscathed.

The problem was the hunger. Undead would never tire, but that didn’t mean they had access to an infinite reserve of power. While living beings consumed the stamina of their bodies as they moved and the mana of their cores whenever they cast a spell, the undead only had their blood core.

Every spell they cast or suffered, every blow they dished or took, they all consumed a part of the energy stored in the undead’s blood core. Nyka possessed a much greater strength than any Awakened of her level, and her Blood Magic was a cut above Spirit Magic, but it came at a price.

While an Awakened only needed a few moments of rest to recover their strength, an undead breathing technique could restore neither the light element they consumed nor the life force spent.

To do that, Nyka needed to use the breathing technique while also feeding. Loma bought her the time she needed while Vladion’s ingenuity did the rest. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

The orange Horde threw themselves into the midst of the Isharas, attacking like a madman. Large masses of the Horde’s spores swung wildly without a care if they hit or missed, and Loma cast tier five Spirit Spells as if there was no tomorrow.

’Either Loma is sacrificing his life to allow Solus and me to recover, or he’s so smart that I’ve no idea what they are doing.’ Nyka thought as she extended her already long fangs and triggered the mouthpiece of her armor, Bite Mark.
