chapter 275 part 2
"Haha!"
Hearing Tang Zheng's words, Nasurini was briefly stunned before she began to laugh out of sheer anger.
"This Old One originally planned to flay your skin first, then listen carefully to your reasons for being in the hills. But now—die for This Old One!!"
Nasurini knew this human was no simple foe; otherwise, he wouldn't be so bold and arrogant. Thus, the moment she acted, she used her full power.
She would give this human no chance to escape!
An astonishing burst of magic power erupted!
"Ahhhhhh!"
An invisible current of air swirled around Nasurini's body. Aside from the arm holding the magic staff, her other three arms began to move in unison.
Among fourth-tier arcane magic, there was a spell called "Silver Knight's Lance," a type of physical magic. Her trump card was a modified version of this spell, with its attribute altered.
Granting fire-attribute damage—Flaming Knight's Lance!
Granting ice-attribute damage—Icy Knight's Lance!
Granting lightning-attribute damage—Lightning Knight's Lance!
The magic Nasurini unleashed was not just one of these, but all three cast at the same time.
*Bang! Bang! Bang!*
In an instant, a knight's lance burning with roaring flames, a knight's lance formed from freezing ice that radiated a glacial aura, and a knight's lance of thunder that flickered with blue lightning materialized in mid-air!
A single fourth-tier spell would consume a massive amount of Nasurini's magic power. Now, using three at once, with the continuous cost it entailed, Nasurini felt her magic power drain away in an instant, her body growing light-headed, on the verge of fainting.
This was her absolute trump card.
To use it in this situation was not only due to her heartfelt rage, but also because this human gave Nasurini a very bad feeling.
If anything unexpected were to happen, her tribesmen would likely suffer heavy casualties. Therefore, finishing the opponent in one blow was the most prudent course of action.
With a deafening "BOOM," the three knight's lances of different magic attributes hurtled toward Tang Zheng simultaneously.
The light of fire, the flash of lightning, and the spreading frost created a three-colored, dazzling magical impact that streaked through the air like a thunderbolt. The power of each spell was at the level of fourth-tier magic.
The terrifying magical aftershock brought looks of worship to the faces of the Magen behind Nasurini.
"Gravity Reversal."
Tang Zheng raised his palm, aiming at the three incoming knight's lances.
He wasn't trying to nullify or defend against the magic, but rather to alter the direction of the three attacks, deflecting their trajectory upward.
This was far easier than a head-on confrontation.
*Swoosh—Swoosh!*
The three elemental magic lances arced upward in mid-air, grazing past Tang Zheng's figure as they flew into the sky and vanished from sight.
*BOOM!*
Then, from some unknown distance, came the resounding roar of three violent explosions.
The air fell silent!
Nasurini's body stiffened. She stared in disbelief as her all-out attack was so easily thwarted.
"Such a racial talent is truly enviable," Tang Zheng's hoarse voice, thick with excitement, rang out.
"Threefold Casting, and not just releasing a single attribute. A pure racial talent. What a pity."
Tang Zheng looked at his system panel, which showed nothing, and shrugged, his excited tone now tinged with disappointment.
For a normal magic caster to achieve multi-casting, they would need to use a magic enhancement technique like "Magic Duplication" or "Magic Triplication."
But that kind of magic enhancement only casts the same spell multiple times, whereas Nasurini had just cast three spells of different attributes.
That was a world of difference.
"If you could also master that kind of magic enhancement technique, you could cast six, or even a full nine spells of the same level at once."
"Hiss, incredible. Ninefold Casting... anyone would be stunned if hit by that all at once," came a hoarse mutter from Tang Zheng's direction.
Nasurini and the other Magen had no idea what Tang Zheng was talking about.
At this moment, most of the Magen hadn't even recovered from the shock of how easily Tang Zheng had defended against their queen's "Three-Attribute Knight's Lance" attack.
"Hm?"
Tang Zheng looked up at Nasurini, who was so unsteady she could barely stand.
"I overestimated you a little, Demonkin Queen. You look completely drained after just one use of your trump card. Your magic power is much lower than I expected."
"You're much weaker than I imagined," came a disappointed voice.
Nasurini snapped out of her disbelief. Her face was devoid of anger, instead twisting in terror as she let out a sharp scream: "Cast magic together and kill him!"
A torrent of magic power surged forth.
A great number of Magen began to cast magic in unison. A barrage of colorful magical attacks of varying power came crashing down like a torrential rain.
Tang Zheng's vision was filled with the overwhelming sight of magic.
Against so many magical attacks, even an army would be heavily damaged or annihilated. This was the weakness of an individual facing an entire tribe.
Unless one's power had reached a crushing, overwhelming level!
Forget a "hero-level" entity, even an "aberrant" would have no choice but to flee.
*BOOM!*
*RUMBLE!*
The bombardment of cannon-like magic enveloped the area where Tang Zheng stood. The ground trembled violently, and a pillar of dust and smoke shot into the sky.
A long moment passed.
The magical assault finally ceased. The group of Magen panted heavily. A magical attack of that intensity was enough to blast any enemy into dust.
"ROAR!"
A roar, like that of a beast or a dragon, echoed from the center of the swirling dust. A gust of wind blew the dust cloud away.
In the area that had been bombarded by so much magic, a pit several tens of meters wide had appeared. But in the very center, a patch of ground five or six square meters in size remained completely unharmed.
The colossal figure of a bone dragon appeared before all the Magen. A faint, seven-colored light shimmered on its white bones.
Its six-meter-long bone wings were wrapped protectively in front of it.
*Crack.*
The bone wings unfolded, revealing the human in the red robe, standing there quietly. Even his clothing was undamaged.
"Everyone, you now have only one choice left," Tang Zheng said with a smile, patting the dust from his robe.
Bewilderment, incomprehension, and fear... Despair began to spread among the Magen.
