Now that Antonidas, the transfer station of magic power, was suppressed, Duque could use more magic power.
He stood with his hands behind his back. As he walked, the volcano under his feet slowly rose, forming a path of lava that led to Antonidas. However, under Duque's feet, every drop of Fire Element automatically separated. When Duque's feet landed, the lava automatically cooled down to a normal temperature, allowing Duque's feet to step on it.
Around Duque, the smoke of the magic war grew more and more intense.
Antonidas kept coming up with more types of magic, some of which only existed in legends.
Not to mention a young Mage like Jaina, even Krasus, who had lived for thousands of years, looked as if he had seen a ghost. Even though he had the encyclopedia of red dragon magic, he had only heard of many spells before.
Even more terrifyingly, even though it was a spell that nobody had seen before, Duque merely glanced at it and paused for half a second, before a corresponding Magic Hand appeared in the void with a brand-new magic array and canceled Antonidas' spell.
Every senior-rank Mage who witnessed that scene was at a loss. They mumbled to themselves, "That's impossible …"
Chaos and order had been opposing each other since ancient times.
Those who created chaos would be harmed by chaos.
That should've been an unbreakable truth.
But what did they see now?
Anyone with enough magic knowledge could tell that Duque had created a temporary magic circuit outside his body and used it to push a brand-new magic array to resist and counteract Antonidas' spell. When the magic array canceled out the opponent's spell, all the magic backlashes would be borne by the temporary magic circuit.
Be it chaos, shattering, or collapsing …
All the damage stopped outside of Duque's body. It couldn't cause any damage to Duque himself. Besides, even the magic power to create the temporary magic circuit and the new magic array was provided by the branch of magic power in the Well of the Sun. Duque had completely gained something without risking anything.
No!
If there was anything Duque had to pay for, it would be his astonishing knowledge and inhuman reaction speed.
Since ancient times, the birth of every magic was accompanied by countless painful experiments. The more powerful a spell was, the higher the price it had to pay.
Even Breaking Dawn Mages would have to kneel if they tried to analyse an ancient spell when their legacies had been severed. Not to mention researching a disruptive spell to counter this rare spell.
At this moment, it was a situation that made Antonidas and all the witnesses break down.
Antonidas' spells in all magic domains were countered.
At some point, the battles between the Radiant Moons had come to a halt.
Both sides retreated with a clear distinction. They had a tacit understanding of each other after fighting for so long. Given the current situation, it was impossible to bypass the other party and interfere with the duel between Breaking Dawn wizards. On the other hand, once a victor was decided, the enemy's forces at or below the Radiant Moon level would definitely crumble.
Rather than spending a great deal of effort and still not being able to affect the outcome of the battle, why not save it for later?
Krasus took a deep breath as if he was about to unleash a dragon's breath. "The only explanation now is that Duke has read all the magic books in Karazhan and prepared a counterspell for every spell recorded in them," he said in a rumbling voice, as if he was about to unleash a dragon's breath.
"That's impossible — how old is he?" Gina Goldsword cried out in shock.
She could not be blamed for crying out.
High Elves had extremely long lifespans. She had been unhappy with the decadent atmosphere of the Silvermoon Parliament. After reaching the Radiant Moon realm and discovering that they could not advance to the Breaking Dawn realm, they decisively led a befuddled life and did not seek to improve. That was why she had left Cuel Salas and wandered the continent.
There had been a period of time when she had been a member of the Dalajan Kirin Tor Parliament. It was to borrow the Dalajan's books legally.
However, it had taken her three thousand years to read all 100,000 magic books.
With her achievements, it was enough for her to be proud to call herself a polymath.
It was not impossible to create a counterspell for the spells in the books. But it was definitely not so fast, so accurate, and so perfect.
The problem was that now, what Duque had done had subverted all her common sense.
Beside her, Gina calmed her rapid breathing from the fierce battle and recalled bits and pieces of Duque. She suddenly smiled bitterly.
"Duque is a superman who can use a hundred Magic Hands to flip through a report and a hundred Magic Eyes to read a report at the same time!" Gina's words almost choked the surrounding archmages to death.
That's right, this was not something that could be done in a day and a half.
As early as the second battle at the Dark Portal, there was an exaggerated feat of Duque single-handedly taking care of the logistics of the entire Alliance.
Unexpectedly, after more than ten years, this godly skill of Duque seemed to have become even more amazing.
Just thinking about it made the bystanders feel like they were going to collapse. How big was the Karazhan library?
According to Gina's memories, even if they didn't count the well-hidden secret and forbidden books, there were more than a million books outside. If it were an ordinary human Mage, even if they died reading here, it would be impressive if they could read through ten thousand books in their lifetime.
Everyone only knew that Duque was different from them.
But they couldn't dissect Duque!
For Duque, as long as he scanned every page of any book, it would automatically form an identical magic book in the system library.
It wasn't as simple as just recording.
When Duque's brain was idle, the system elf would also borrow Duque's brainpower to analyze all the spells in the magic books, deducing, simplifying, condensing, and marking out the flaws and developing counterspells on his own.
In the memories of the years when Gina was studying under Duque, Duque was often like an ignorant and incompetent book-flipping criminal. Walking to a bookshelf, regardless of what book it was, with a snap of his fingers, from bottom to top, he used the Hand of Magic to flip through the books in order, flipped them once, and then put them back.
The only difference was that at that time, there were at most ten Hands of Magic and Eyes of Magic working.
At that time, Duque didn't look like he was reading at all, but flipping through the books to see if there would be anything like golden leaves in them!
Jaina would never have thought that Duque, with the help of the system elf, was studying magic books at a speed a hundred times faster than a normal person twenty-four hours a day.
Studying while eating.
Studying while drinking water.
Summarizing while sleeping.
Even when they were having sex, the system elf also faithfully helped Duque categorize and summarize magic knowledge.
That was why there was this incomparably terrifying Duque now.
As long as there was enough magic power!
Duque was the God of Magic!
Magic exploded between Duque and Antonidas like brilliant fireworks, then dissipated with the wind. Before he knew it, Duque had walked to ten meters in front of the great lich. Duque's lips curled into a smile.
"Spell Breaker? Who said I was a Spell Breaker? I'm just a Spell Breaker in the world. "
