Chapter 91: Dragon-Language Magic, A Sea of Fire Burns the Sky
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
As thick waves of Bloodthirsty Iron-Crystal Ants charged with great montum, yellow sand filled the air, and dust and soil flew everywhere.
The Bloodthirsty Iron-Crystal Ants had bodies the size of calves with blood-red armor, teeth sharp as sickles, and six terrible-looking legs.
These were terrible monsters that made people fearful upon hearing their nas.
“It’s here!”
“The ant tide is coming!”
“Hurry up and et the enemy!”
The horn resounded across the sky.
The soldiers clenched their giant swords, the Magicians clenched their magic wands, and archers clenched their magic bows, and they all shared solemn expressions.
Everyone was so nervous they were suffocating. This was their first ti encountering an ant tide, could they resist it?
Marquis Gould looked at the approaching ant wave on a tower more than ten ters tall and its unstoppable montum with a gloomy expression.
“How long before the Flying Dragon Troops arrive?”
“Three hours, Lord Marquis!”
“Three hours is enough!” Marquis Gould drew his sword. “Send my order. All weapons are to be readied, listen to my orders!”
“Yes, sir!”
At the other side...
ng Lei was also waiting intently. He licked his lips, and a glimr of light flashed in his eyes.
Bloodthirsty Iron-Crystal Ants are Sixth-Grade Magical Beasts. They are as hard as iron, so only seventh-grade magic can instakill them. However, seventh-grade magic greatly consus magical power, so I’ll be unable to constantly cast seventh-grade spells. In which case, this is the only way!
With this thought, ng Lei rode the magic carpet to a place several hundred ters before the Great Dragon Blood Wall and stopped.
“What’s up with that guy? Why did he run out?”
ng Lei’s actions appeared very jarring in the neatly lined-up troops. Everyone was a little confounded.
“Who is that bastard? Why is he acting by himself without following orders?” Marquis Gould was infuriated and demanded to know that person’s identity.
“I... I don’t know him, Lord Marquis!” the soldier stuttered. “There’s no such person in the defense army at all. He’s likely a Magician who ca to assist the battle out of his own free will!”
“Here to assist the battle out of his own free will?” Marquis Gould’s face was ugly. “Call him back. Without my orders, nobody acts on their own!”
“Yes, Lord Marquis!”
The soldiers replied, took the magical-transmitting horn, and prepared to call him when the ground in front of them suddenly started shaking.
The next mont...
A crack suddenly opened up on the earth, and then it started expanding rapidly. Amidst the rumbling and exploding sounds, a canyon hundreds of ters wide appeared in front of the Great Dragon Blood Wall!
“This... This is...”
“Eighth-Grade Spell, Earth Force!”
“Holy my, he’s an Eight-Grade Magician!”
All the Magicians in the tower started gasping in shock. Magicians were rare, to begin with, and eighth-grade ones even more so. There weren’t many in the entire defense army, but there’s one there?
“This guy is an Eighth-Grade Magician?”
Naturally, as a Ninth-Grade Warrior, Marquis Gould’s judgnt was very good. He looked at the canyon ng Lei had created, and surprise showed on his face before he felt confused. “What’s the point of making such a canyon? Does he think that a re canyon can stop the ant tide? A fantasy!”
Whether it was a fantasy or not, ng Lei still continued with his digging operation. He continued to chant the Eighth-Grade Spell, Earth Force to extend the canyon.
Soon, a canyon several kiloters long and hundreds of ters wide appeared. It was like a small snake lying at the foot of the Great Dragon Blood Wall, looking completely insignificant, yet fully demonstrating the might of an Eighth-Grade Magician.
“Pfft...” ng Lei breathed out a mouthful of dusty air. “Eighth-grade spells really consu too much magic power, an entire 10,000 units of magic power. I’ve got to replenish them from the ant tide later.”
Boom, boom, boom!
At that mont, the ant tide’s vanguard finally arrived at the edge of the canyon. They jumped in without the least bit of hesitation!
Countless Bloodthirsty Iron-Crystal Ants let out strange cracking sounds and rushed into the canyon.
If it continued like this, the canyon that ng Lei had worked hard to make would be filled in a matter of a few minutes. Thus, everything he had done would be in vain.
“Childish tricks, good for nothing!” Marquis Gould couldn’t help but snort upon seeing that. “Good strength, but stupid! This kind of canyon is nothing for a massive ant tide. They will pass through it effortlessly!”
The Magicians also shook their heads and sighed.
At this ti, ng Lei, who was hovering in the sky, moved again. His lips opened slightly, chanting in an ancient and difficult language.
His voice wasn’t loud, but like so kind of ancient Buddhist chant, it passed clearly and powerfully into everyone’s ears.
“That’s...”
Marquis Gould’s whole body suddenly shivered in shock.
Boom, boom, boom!
Fire Elents gathered wildly within several hundred square ters, and a big fireball shining with white light appeared in the sky.
As the imnse amount of Fire Elents gathered rapidly, the big fireball expanded at a terrible speed. Within a few breaths, a “small sun” with a radius of dozens of ters appeared.
“That’s...”
Everyone’s eyes widened!
“Fire Inferno... Drop!” ng Lei shouted ferociously.
Boom!
The huge sun suddenly dropped from the sky and right into the canyon. Following an earth-shaking explosion, bright tongues of fire suddenly splashed out of the several-kiloter-long canyon!
Boom!
A huge fire started burning everything in the canyon, and its intense fla rose up dozens of ters into the sky. Like beans being fried in a pan, cracking sounds echoed as the countless Bloodthirsty Iron-Crystal Ants that had jumped into the canyon died painfully. The white flas incinerated the ants!
In but a mont, the hundreds-of-ters-wide canyon turned into a sea of fire. The fire wall was several dozens of ters high, blocking out the ant tide like a line of blockade.
Any ant that approached... got blown up and turned into dust. The Bloodthirsty Iron-Crystal Ants were montarily stopped right where they were, and so were hesitating to move forward!
“Is this the Seventh-Grade Spell, Fire Inferno?”
Inside the mage tower, all the fire-elental Magicians sowhat doubted life. Judging from the huge fireball’s surface appearance, it was indeed the Seventh-Grade Spell, Fire Inferno. However, wasn’t it a bit... too powerful?
It had a diater of a hundred ters and exuded white flas... Was this really Fire Inferno!?
“A Magician that’s versed in Earth and Fire magic!” Marquis Gould’s eyes narrowed. “Besides, if I didn’t hear wrongly, the magic spell just now... was chanted in Dragon Language. He actually knows Dragon-Language Magic! How can he possibly know Dragon-Language Magic?”
ng Lei didn’t know how shocked the others were. He felt a bit annoyed right now because of the system’s non-stop notification sounds that kept ringing in his mind.
“Ding! 1 Bloodthirsty Iron-Crystal Ant killed. 10,380 gold coins gained!”
“Ding! 1 Bloodthirsty Iron-Crystal Ant killed. 11,029 gold coins gained!”
“Ding! 1 Bloodthirsty Iron-Crystal Ant killed. 10,853 gold coins gained!”
“Ding...”
“System, can I block the notification sounds?”
ng Lei swung his head, feeling a bit exhausted.
“Okay, host!”
The notification sounds disappeared imdiately.
“Finally, quiet!”
ng Lei heaved a sigh of relief before his gaze fell on the Stats interface—his “Wealth” column was changing wildly!
