Chapter 1097: 346. Three questions
Just as Noland Lee thought his energy manipulation had failed and fell into a stupor, a string of system text entered his mind.
[System Message:]
[You have obtained a damaged “Spell Blueprint: Body-splitting Technique”.]
Noland Lee took a deep breath.
That was scary.
Just now, he had invested 100 million points of energy into energy manipulation. If it had failed, it would have been a huge loss.
...
Noland Lee slowly exhaled, feeling a slight joy in his heart.
Merely from the name of the spell, he could roughly guess its function.
This must be the Chaos Magic that could help him escape this predicament.
With a light touch in his mind, the Magic Panel unfolded before him.
…
[Name] Body-splitting Technique
[Type] High-Order Chaotic Magic
[Level] Level 8
[Integrity] 8%, explosive power decreased by 92%
[Consume] 1 point of Chaotic Energy, 800 Points of Energy
[Effect]
Target an enemy and activate this skill, conducting a “willpower” related judgment on them.
If the target’s willpower is higher than yours, then the target doesn’t get harmed.
If the target’s willpower is lower than yours, the target will be torn apart by Chaotic Energy, causing widespread damage.
[Explanation 1]
The explosion caused by tearing apart the target, its power is related to the sum of extraordinary energies within the target.
[Explanation 2]
You must be in the “Aberrant Body” state.
After using this skill, you will end the “Aberrant Body” state.
[Explanation 3]
This skill can target yourself, but it will not kill you.
…
“This is a Local Magic, not the Wild Magic I was expecting, and it’s related to the ‘willpower’ attribute…”
Noland Lee pondered and opened his Panel Information.
His “willpower” was at 180 points.
What about Blood Sun Whip’s?
Noland Lee glanced at the Deconstruction Results.
175 points.
The “willpower” of Blood Sun Whip was 175 points!
Just 5 points lower than his!
“Hahaha…”
Noland Lee chuckled to himself inwardly. noveldrama
This 5-point difference was going to determine the fate of Blood Sun Whip!
Noland Lee raised his finger and pointed it towards Blood Sun Whip that was lashing at the Control Console’s protective shield, swiftly activating the “Body-splitting Technique.”
As the Spell Blueprint took shape in his mind, a gray-purple radiance burst from the tip of Noland Lee’s finger.
Starting from the fingertip, his skin quickly changed from gray-purple back to its original color.
From his finger to the root of his palm, and then from the root of his palm to his arm, chest, and finally to his feet.
As the skin color returned to normal, the light on his fingertip grew brighter.
All of this happened in less than half a second.
Blood Sun Whip had just sensed the energy fluctuation radiating from Noland Lee when, in the next instant, it was struck by a Chaos Energy pellet the size of a rice grain.
Time seemed to freeze for a moment, followed by a violent explosion erupting from Blood Sun Whip’s body.
“Boom, boom, boom—”
A gray-purple glow devoured Blood Sun Whip from the inside out, tearing apart its body, tentacles, and suction cups, triggering a shockwave mixed with a large amount of crimson fragments.
“Whooosh~~~”
A deluge of filth along with fierce streams of air descended from the sky.
Noland Lee firmly protected himself with a “Magic Shield”, while Nolin controlled the Armored Mechanical Spirit to construct a Magic Barrier.
Working together against the shockwave, Noland Lee was still blown dozens of meters away by the fierce wind.
[System Message:]
[The casting of “Body-splitting Technique” was successful!]
[Due to the target’s explosion, you have sustained minor Chaotic Energy damage.]
[“Blood Sun Whip” has been defeated.]
[Activate Passive Deconstruction!]
[The target’s benign Panel Information has been updated.]
The raging wind gradually subsided.
Noland Lee looked at the Armored Mechanical Spirit in front of him.
Its silver-gray Magic metal surface had many new fringe-like corrosion marks, dense and chilling to the eye.
Noland Lee looked down at his Magic Robe.
Unbeknownst to him, this excellently defensive garment, with a built-in 100,000-point protective shield, was now torn and tattered, hanging on Noland Lee like a beggar’s rags.
Clearly, if it weren’t for the Armored Mechanical Spirit taking the brunt and the Magic Robe shielding his torso, Noland Lee would have suffered more than “minor” Chaotic Energy damage.
And this was with the “Body-splitting Technique” at only 8% integrity, with the explosive power reduced by 92%.
One could hardly imagine what it would be like if the integrity of this spell reached 100%…
“Uh, if I remember correctly, the casting range of ‘Body-splitting Technique’ is 10 times that of ‘Spirit’, right? Then wouldn’t I, the caster, also have to detonate within the explosion radius?”
After some thought, Noland Lee slapped his forehead:
“Wait, why did I say ‘also’… Oh, right, ‘Sonic Blast’ at full power is also like this.”
Looking up towards the Vacuum Bubble Emitter’s direction, aside from the slowly descending bloodstains, there was no longer any obstacle blocking Noland Lee’s path.
Noland Lee had Nolin control the gathering Mechanical Spirits to salvage the reusable Armored Mechanical Spirit, clean up the battlefield, and look for any potential Spoils of War.
Meanwhile, he leisurely circumvented the blood mist in the air and flew towards the Control Console thousands of meters away.
Just when he thought he would have a clear path ahead, the surrounding blood mist began to stir.
Noland Lee became alert, raising his finger to release a 100-level “Death Two Finger.”
“Buzz!”
The black ray pierced through the blood mist, which remained unscathed, coalescing into a blood-colored eyeball suspended in the air.
Before Noland Lee could launch another attack, the blood-colored eyeball wove a line of Golden Federation Language Text out of the surrounding blood mist.
“I am the descendant of Blood Sun’s God Seal. Mighty Wizard, let us strike a deal.”
