Chapter 790: 251. Mr. Big Stick_2
Its power was indeed earth-shattering, directly bombarding the haven of Snow Mountain Island 1, leaving charred traces everywhere from the lightning.
Not only that, but the spherical thunderstorm was spherical, so it would spread in all directions.
While the ground was being ravaged by the thunderstorm, the sea water and magic fog in the sky didn’t manage to escape unscathed.
The seawater boiled, spraying countless droplets and splashes, and the magic fog was pierced by the rolling bright blue thunderstorm.
This earth-shattering energy fluctuation caught the attention of the Magic Outpost.
It took Noland so effort to get rid of the Magic Outpost.
Seeing the magic fog pierced by the thunderstorm and the charred natural haven, Noland could only describe the “Thunderstorm Nova” with two words – badass.
The most crucial thing was:
As stated on the panel of the magic spell, it would cause harm to the caster, but in reality, the extent of the damage was very, very limited.
Take Noland as an example.
When casting the “Thunderstorm Nova,” a spherical lightning barrier ford outside his “Magic Shield” first, before spreading out into a spherical thunderstorm.
Since the thunderstorm spread in a single direction, Noland, who was at the center, would only be bothered by so small electric snakes.
With his current shield strength, it was easy for him to block such damage.
This was the experintal result in a water environnt.
Things got a bit more complicated in an underwater environnt.
The thunder and lightning energy extracted from the elental energy reactor would rapidly dissipate in the sea water, making it difficult for Noland to accumulate the energy needed to cast the spell.
Noland had no Spiritual Ocean and no “Magic Power Container,” so he could not store thunder and lightning energy using a wizard’s thods.
He had no choice but to use the “Magic Viscera” technique.
In order to ensure that he could cast the “Thunderstorm Nova” underwater, Noland concocted 11 Knight Secret dicines in one breath, using them to create his own “Magic Viscera.”
[System ssage:]
[You have opened up 11 “Magic Viscera.”]
[Your “Tenacity” attribute is 100 points.]
[Each “Magic Viscera” can hold a maximum of 1000 points of magic energy (Mana).]
[You can hold a maximum of 11,000 points of magic energy.]
[Due to the use of 11 “Magic Viscera,” your Energy Points decrease by 11 each hour.]
This small decrease in Energy Points was nothing for Noland; his daily automatic recovery would cover the expenses.
He first extracted the thunder and lightning energy from the elental energy reactor at the shore, then, following the guidance of the “Calm Breathing thod,” absorbed the energy into his body and stored it in his “Magic Viscera.”
A faint tingling sensation raced through his five viscera and six bowels, causing Noland’s body to shiver slightly.
Once the “Magic Viscera” held enough thunder and lightning energy, Noland stopped absorbing the magic power and the tingling sensation weakened, becoming almost undetectable.
At this point, checking the Panel Information, the “Magic Viscera” entry displayed “Thunder and Lightning Energy Storage: 11,000 points.”
Noland sank to the seabed three ters below, outlined the spell blueprint in his mind, and mobilized the thunder and lightning energy in his viscera.
The “Thunderstorm Nova” released by 11,000 points of thunder and lightning energy had a greatly reduced magical power, only a thousandth of its normal state.
After so preparation, a circle of bright blue lightning barrier erged around his body, and with a crackling sound, exploded loudly in the sea water.
A massive water pillar several ters thick suddenly appeared on the surface of the sea, mixed with many small electric snakes.
In an instant, Noland was enveloped by bubbles and rolling seawater.
Returning to the ground level, he checked the combat information and shook his head in disappointnt.
The situation was not promising.His “Thunderstorm Nova” faced the sa dilemma as the “Thundercloud Technique,” as the thunder and lightning energy of both could not propagate normally in the sea water environnt.
In that last explosion, the originally distant thunderstorm was disrupted by the sea water and caused over 3,000 points of thunder and lightning damage to Noland’s “Undead Shield.”
Keep in mind that the full-power “Thunderstorm Nova,” which consud over ten million thunder and lightning energies, only caused him more than 10,000 points of thunder and lightning damage.
From just these two data points, one could understand how ill-suited thunder and lightning magic was for the underwater environnt.
“It’s really giving a headache. What kind of spells can kill sea monsters in the water?” Noland couldn’t help but think.
The dilemma he faced could also be said to be the dilemma of the entire Deep Sea Branch.
As Noland racked his brain to explore ways to kill sea monsters, a letter from Selena disrupted his thoughts.
This was the first letter he had received from her in the four days since their secret eting.
Selena invited Noland to et in the letter.
Noland gladly agreed.
Stepping once more into the Floating Miniature Ocean Study Room after many days, Noland saw a haggard Selena.
The lady seed to have lost so weight, her cheekbones slightly protruding and her eye sockets sowhat recessed.
“You look a bit haggard. Do you need to rest for a few more days?” Noland asked.
“I wish I could rest so more, Jarvis.”
Selena forced a smile and scanned the mountain of docunts piled on the table:
“But I’ve already delayed a lot of work. I have to start now.”
Noland nodded, pulled out a chair, and sat down:
“It’s a good thing that you managed to get out of your self-imposed confinent. At least it shows you’re not ashad.”
