Chapter 897 - Thundercloud Storm (1/2)
Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance
Everyone in the human army was staring blankly. There was a terrifying pressure in everyone’s mind, making some of the mages want to throw up, but unable to.
Many of them recognized it… That spell just now had been recorded as an Extraordinary Spell!
The 9th Tier large-scale indiscriminate offensive spell, Thundercloud Storm!
That terrifying spell could only be cast by a Heaven Mage who specialized in thunder and lightning magic. It was said to be a great tool for slaying armies.
Anyone below the Heaven Rank could only die when faced with the Thundercloud Storm.
No one below the Heaven Rank could resist that limitless thundering Extraordinary Power.
No matter how many people there were, as long as they were within the spell’s range, they would all suffer the same fate.
This was also why it was said that in front of Heaven Rank powerhouses, numbers had no meaning.
Spells that carried Extraordinary Power simply couldn’t be resisted by anyone under the Heaven Rank. This wasn’t a gap in power, but rather a gap in quality!
No matter how formidable someone under the Heaven Rank was, when faced with the Heaven Rank, it would be like sheets of paper trying to hold back a genuine Iron Essence Sword. They simply couldn’t compare.
Thus, in any of the current era’s wars, Heaven Ranks would rarely make a move. The power of the Heaven Rank was too strong, and as long as a Heaven Rank powerhouse took action, the other side’s troops below the Heaven Rank would be slaughtered like animals.
After all, the number of Archmages within an army was always low. Over 99% of the troops were typically below the Archmage realm. And when these troops faced Extraordinary power, they couldn’t muster the slightest bit of resistance. Just being grazed was enough for them to die miserably.
If both sides had Heaven Rank powerhouses, the aftermath of their fight would destroy both sides.
This was why major forces would rarely dispatch a Heaven Rank powerhouse when they were in conflict. The losses would be too great, and it would be counterproductive.
Dubois’ sudden appearance went beyond everyone’s expectations, including the Raging Flame Beastmen, so they died miserably.
A single 9th Tier Spell had been enough to completely get rid of that group of Raging Flame Beastmen that had worried Harren and Jouyi, leaving not a single survivor.
Even that level 39 huge Kodo, from a race known for their magic defense that far exceeded their own level, was charred by the lightning.
Dubois’ attack on the Raging Flame Beastmen had been utter carnage as he walked through the air, bathing the entire battlefield in lightning.
Harren took a step forward, wanting to say something.
“Sir Dubois…”
Harren urgently wanted to explain the situation, but just as he opened his mouth, he felt a huge pressure that prevented him from being able to speak.
Dubois ignored everyone and didn’t seem to want to hear what Harren had to say. Mana surged everywhere, and Extraordinary Power fluctuated. The elemental power in the air was completely suppressed by the Extraordinary Power, the mages under the Archmage realm couldn’t even think of casting a spell.
As for those at the Archmage realm, when they wanted to cast a spell, they felt that casting was ten times harder, and the mana consumption was also a few times higher.
The elemental power in the air had become a lot heavier, but there was no change in the Laws.
Dubois extended a hand and glanced at the battlefield with a cold gaze. Limitless runes crazily converged in his hand, layering over each other until finally, no trace of the runes could be seen.
Everyone could only see boundless glaring light being emitted from Dubois’ hand and the space starting to fluctuate around him.
The spatial ripples could be seen slowly propagating through the surroundings, and as soon as they reached the ground, the ground within several hundred meters looked like a biscuit instantly being transformed into powder.
The hard ground turned into a desert in an instant, disintegrated into the finest sand.
And this wasn’t over: More and more light appeared in Dubois’ hand, causing the spatial ripples to become even more intense. The terrifying power made everyone pale, but they couldn’t evade it.
Even if that huge pressure wasn’t intentionally suppressing them, it still made them all feel like they were carrying immense weight on their backs. Just taking one step felt incomparably difficult.
Not many under the Archmage realm could even keep standing. Only the Archmages could still stand tall with cold sweat trickling down their foreheads as they waited for Dubois’ action.
Suddenly, Dubois’ sustained mana and runes compressed to the limit, and the fierce spatial fluctuations disappeared.
Dubois had an icy expression on his face as he waved the blossoming light in his right-hand towards the battlefield.
