The violent storm didn't show any signs of stopping. Not far away, the slaughter and screams of shock were coming to an end. Just as the Sea Tribe was about to obtain their new capital, our journey of escape was also coming to an end.
The Nine-headed Dragon in front of us opened its bloody mouth, causing the remaining seven dragon heads to spit out seven-colored dragon blood. Meanwhile, all sorts of destructive magical powers gathered together. Under the careful control of the Nine-headed Dragon, the seven dragon breaths finally formed a colorful floating ball of light. This was a lethal ball of elemental energy.
This was the specialty of multi-headed dragons. Soon, when all the magical elements finally merged into one, the colorful ball of light finally became pure, and a light that could destroy everything would be born.
This was how top-tier magical beasts fought. They abandoned all useless tricks and did their best to strengthen their physical bodies and race's natural talents. From the looks of it, the dragon breath with multiple elements would finally condense into a non-elemental shockwave.
With the Nine-headed Dragon Emperor's power level, although he didn't have two dragon heads stacked on top of each other, he was already comparable to a forbidden spell.
A powerful physical body and a powerful natural talent attack were the foundational reasons why a top-level creature like a dragon would be able to crush everything. When fighting against them, who were always unreasonable, it was still up to one's power to speak.
Judging from the magical waves, I estimated that if this attack hit, not only would everyone here be destroyed, even the entire pier area would be destroyed.
"Hmph, do you think that you're the only one who knows how to use it? Heloise, Plan C, give him the first attack! "
"Queen, I can't do it."
"What?"
"Queen, I also want to use it, but do you think that I don't need time to prepare? At least give me five more minutes! Can't you understand that reinforcements need to be late? How can a hero rely on reinforcements at such a critical moment? Do it yourself! Don't count on us supporting characters, I believe in you! "
Hearing her retort, which sounded rather modern, I made up my mind not to tell this silly cat any more nonsense, but at the same time, I was truly helpless.
There wasn't enough time, so it was understandable that Heloise wasn't prepared. But if this combined dragon breath was used, there would probably be no need for any plans. After all, nothing would be left.
"Damn it! Big guy, look at this! "
I took a deep breath. I had no intention of charging forward, and directly landed on the opposite side of the cliff from where Kolos was. What I was going to do next would probably be completely meaningless with my wings.
"Original Sin Fiendcelestial."
The moment I retracted my wings, a strong sense of exhaustion from dispelling my War Angel form engulfed me. I didn't even have the time to sigh about this as the Light of Chaos that followed transformed me into another form — Original Sin Demon God.
The angle of my vision suddenly increased by a few centimeters, as if I had suddenly become much taller. My breath carried the smell of sulfur, which was the mark of a demon.
Her originally white skin had turned into an ugly layer of light blue magma. Strange magic runes kept flashing in accordance to her breathing rhythm. She seemed to be an elemental lifeform.
My Chaos bloodline caused blue lightning to run amok in my veins. Then, it shot out from the magic runes. The overflowing energy caused the rainwater in the air to evaporate. Lightning flashed in my eyes. When it finally stabilized, I looked as though a Demon God had descended into this world.
I didn't like this transformation at all. Apart from the fact that the power of Chaos had a bad reputation and might bring me trouble, it was also because this final boss form of a villain was truly ugly. It always reminded me of the dark history of being a lich and scaring myself by looking at a mirror in the middle of the night.
But right now, I needed this ugly transformation. Although it was ugly, it was indeed powerful and not warm at all.
"Spirits of ice and snow, storms of the polar regions, listen to my command …"
If the War Angel form was a high-speed charge type transformation, which was suitable for powerful melee combat, then this Original Sin Demon God form would strengthen magic control, willpower, intelligence, and other magical abilities. It was a classic magic transformation.
"… Under my will, the end of the rotten old era and all creation shall soon come …"
A long incantation brought with it the power to destroy the heavens and the earth. Spirits of ice and snow sang in the air as the top-level ice forbidden spell — Ice Aeon appeared.
Different from Marguerite's knockoff version, the copy of Ice Aeon didn't even have a third of the original's power. But as the creator of this forbidden spell, I was able to bring out 200% of its power.
The theory behind this forbidden spell was extremely simple. It was to use the purest ice and snow magic to crystallize and repeatedly compress it before blasting it out. It was no different from a fireball.
But just like what Heloise had said before, because it was simple, it was pure. Because it was so pure that there was nothing else to it, it matched the essence of ice and snow, making it powerful.
【SemiGod Equipment, Dark God's Breath of Death. Special Effect 1: Soul Conversion: Extract the souls of the dead and convert them into pure death magic.】
Death magic entered my hands, but it was forcefully converted into the purest ice and snow magic. Should I thank Kalošín for the massacres and the many years of accumulation? Countless souls created this SemiGod Equipment to store a large amount of magic power, and this was exactly what I lacked the most at the moment.
"… Winter's Dormancy is death, but it is also rebirth …"
With me as the core, magic power overflowed from the raised black scepter. Along with the incantation getting louder and louder, the blue magic runes that represented ice and snow spread across the entire land. The ice and snow spirits dancing in the air were singing in unison.
Before I even made my move, the entire cliff had already turned into a land of ice. The pouring rain in the air had already turned into a heavy snowflake. The summer wind that was supposed to be warm and humid had already turned into a bone-chilling storm.
Furthermore, as the temperature plummeted, a thin layer of ice started to form on the surface of the flood. For the first time, the endless flood met its natural enemy.
Finally, the two dragon heads that had finished regenerating raise their heads. The moment they came to life, they stared at me. Their huge eyes, which were the size of adults, shot out an angry red light. That was undisguised killing intent.
This distance and the snowflakes were unable to obstruct their line of sight. They were assessing the threat that my magic could pose to them.
In the eyes of the Nine-headed Dragon, as long as they could get rid of Longtu and those annoying chains in one fell swoop, so what if they were hit by that forbidden spell? It wasn't the first time that Fioros Hydra had been hit by a forbidden spell. In any case, their skin was thick and they wouldn't die. In just a few days, they would be able to completely regenerate.
However, with just a glance, he knew that the situation was different from the past.
Their regeneration ability was a racial talent, but it was also a comprehensive ability of water magic. Fioros was confident that as long as there was water, he wouldn't die. However, what would happen if there was no water?
Water Mages would usually train in ice magic to increase the lethality and flexibility of their spells. However, this didn't mean that there was no conflict between these two types of magic. On the contrary, pure water Mages hated Ice Mages the most.
Water Mages usually took the form of water arrows or huge waves. Fundamentally speaking, it was the control and usage of liquids. Thus, they had two natural enemies. Fire Magic, which represented high temperatures, would evaporate liquids. On the other hand, ice Magic, which originated from the same source as water Magic, represented low temperatures and would turn liquids into solid ice.
Regardless of whether it was water vapor or ice, if they weren't in a liquid state, they wouldn't be able to fit the concept of 'water'. That would break their foundation.
The Nine-headed Dragon Fioros pondered, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was amiss.
It was obvious that the spell in front of him was an ice Forbidden Spell. Without even making a move, it was able to cause a natural phenomenon to resonate with the Elemental Spirits. It was obvious that this was the unique characteristic of a super Forbidden Spell.
Although the mage in front of him didn't have any magic undulations (Bronze-rank magic meant nothing to him), the black rod was releasing an endless amount of magic power. Furthermore, the ice Mage was able to freeze him, who had an extremely high magic resistance. This had already proven his outstanding aptitude in ice magic. If this Forbidden Spell were to successfully freeze him …
Would he be able to enjoy the rest of his life in a block of ice that would never thaw? His regeneration ability wouldn't be of any help in such a situation.
"Hydra who went into the fridge and forgot to come out? I can even collect some tickets to the exhibition. "This joke wasn't funny at all to him.
If he were to take it a step further and freeze all the surrounding water, rainwater, and his own bodily fluids into ice, then his regeneration ability would be crippled. It was possible for him to be frozen into an ice cube, shatter into ice shards, and die.
Fioros didn't think much of the humans' Forbidden Spell, Nine-headed Dragon Emperor. However, the more he looked at it, the more uncertain he became.
"Pa!"
Under the feet of the Mage, the frozen ground suddenly split open. The barrier between the void and reality was opened, revealing a huge hole that resembled a demonic abyss.
Then, a gigantic black skeletal hand rose up and pierced into the sturdy ground. Just a single finger bone was the size of an adult. However, this was only the beginning. The true nightmare was returning to the human world.
"Ahhhhh!"
As the giant, pitch-black skull returned to the human world from the Underworld, even though the skull with the crown on it had a ghastly smile and a strange "kakaka" sound, all living beings who saw it instinctively screamed in fear, as if they had seen the Grim Reaper reaping all lives.
"… We shall bring an equal end and death to all living beings …"
The chanting continued. On the head of the Skeleton King that was laughing eerily, the Mage who was standing on the crown of ice continued chanting. The crown made of ice crystals and gemstones became his throne.
The cliff was now a field of snow. On top of the frost, the King of Ice was laughing wantonly. Just his existence was enough to bring an end to all living beings.
Beneath the cliff, endless ice started to freeze the flood before them. Even the air started to freeze. When the King of Eternal Night descended, all living beings would welcome their end.
Even though the ice had yet to reach the Nine-headed Dragon, fear finally appeared in the blood-red eyes of the gigantic dragon.
Under the gaze of the Skeleton King, Nine-headed Dragon Emperor Fioros had never been so close to death before. Even though his rainbow-colored Dragon Breath was still gathering, the instinctive fear of a living being on the brink of death caused the immortal ancient beast to tremble.
This wasn't determined by strength. It was an instinctive fear caused by the food chain. The black Skeleton King in front of him was the predator of all living beings.
The Nine-headed Dragon also knew that the Skeleton King in front of him, who was taller than him, wasn't real. It was just a projection of a Soul World brought about by the release of a Forbidden Spell. Although this was the privilege of a powerful being who was once close to the level of a true God and might be rare in this era, it wasn't much to an ancient being like him.
However, the key point was that the might of a God's projection was the true appearance of that person, that God. He had seen Lady Storm's God's projection before. The furious True God's projection that created a storm and destroyed a city couldn't even compare to the might of this black Skeleton King. The only one that could compare was the Ancient Death God Aillé's projection that he had seen by chance.
"Aillé? The God of the Dead … Also in the form of a skeleton and wielding a black God Equipment scepter. Could he really be that legendary person? I heard that he recently appeared in the Underground World and even killed a Demon Count. Could this be the legendary … Super Forbidden Spell that directly destroyed the Kingdom of the Elves — Ice Aeon! "
"… Under our will, the Ice Aeon shall once again return to the mortal world and the world that belongs to the dead shall once again …"
At this stage, the Forbidden Spell wasn't something that could be stopped at will. Even if the Spellcaster stopped chanting, the Snow Elves in mid-air would continue chanting.
At this moment, under the rising and falling chorus, the strange incantation reverberated throughout the entire battlefield. Even if one didn't understand this foreign language, everyone could understand the true meaning of this strange language.
That wasn't some malicious curse. On the contrary, it was just like a historian narrating a new epic that he had recorded. That was a possibility, the Spellcaster was narrating the future that he believed to be inevitable — When the Ice Aeon descends once again, when everything is frozen once again, all living beings and Gods will either die or fall into eternal slumber. The Dead who are not afraid of the frost will become the new masters of the era.
Even though it was just a simple description and statement, it carried endless destruction and despair. This was the Doomsday Hymn of Emperor Yongye — Ice Aeon.
This was an unimaginable distortion. However, from the perspective of natural history, it was indeed a possible doomsday that could happen in the future.
In order to bring the true doomsday that he hoped for to all living beings, the completely insane Emperor Yongye created the most dangerous and insane Forbidden Spell in history. The most unimaginable thing was that he actually succeeded. From the day this Forbidden Spell was born, the 'Ice Aeon' was destined to become the nightmare of all living beings.
When he realized that the opponent in front of him could possibly be that person, Fioras felt despair.
The name of a person was like the shadow of a tree. Even a second-rate God at his peak would have to take a detour to avoid him. His army had once hunted down countless existences of the same level as him and he was infamous in the world of top-notch Demonic Beasts. With such a deep memory of his past, it would be foolish of him to still be unable to recognize the person in front of him.
"Emperor Yongye!!"
The terrified Nine-headed Dragon Emperor screamed out the forbidden name. His roar echoed throughout the entire city. Countless gazes were directed in his direction and the entire world trembled.
At this moment, Fioras didn't doubt that this Forbidden Spell would claim his life. As long as the complete Ice Aeon was released, the one who should be worried about whether he would be able to preserve his corpse in one piece is the city, not him.
That was indeed the case. As long as the complete Ice Aeon was released, the effects of the City of Rain would be negligible. That was because this place would be a polar region with nothing but glaciers for the next hundred years.
The Seven-colored Dragon's Breath had reached its final moments. The enemy that the Dragonslayer had pursued for his entire life was about to fall in front of him. However, when he was about to die, it wasn't the time for him to take revenge.
"Ah!" "Kacha!"
The two newly born dragon heads bit off their six dragon heads. The pitiful Nine-headed Dragon Emperor turned into a three-headed snake. After losing its six energy sources, the remaining main head was finally able to freely control the ball of Dragon's Breath that was about to go berserk.
Thus, he spat out his Dragon's Breath with all his might and unhesitatingly pushed the ball of light towards Emperor Yongye.
At this moment, the majestic me was actually on the verge of tears.
I was just a Bronze-rank rookie Ice Mage. The magic power in my body wasn't even enough to create a Blizzard. What Ice Aeon? It was just a distant dream.
However, just like how I 'comprehended' Bladestorm, it wasn't difficult to comprehend the 'Ice Aeon' that I created. However, without the support of a foundation, I definitely wouldn't be able to release it.
【Ding! Congratulations for comprehending the SemiGod-tier Destruction Forbidden Spell, Ice Aeon. — System Notification: What? You want more explanations? Anyway, you won't be able to use it no matter what, so why waste my saliva? If you really manage to release it, remember to buy a coffin. Why? Do you think that I should use this rare luck to buy a lottery ticket? Are you dumb? How can a dead person receive a lottery ticket? Right, you can go and bet on a ball. It just so happens that I can earn a sum of money. Un, it is a gamble that isn't difficult at all. As long as I bet on your tails, I will definitely win.】
As usual, I ignored the chatterbox System that spits more than the main text. At this moment, in order to restrain the Nine-headed Dragon who didn't care about me at all, I only intended to use Ice Aeon to scare him. Since I have the magic power stored in the 'Dark God's Breath of Death', I might as well use it to scare him.
However, the moment I opened my mouth, I knew that the situation was bad. I had gone overboard.
"Damn it! I can't stop!! "
