Chapter 1055
Surprisingly enough, Crazy Tyrant Akhan obtained one of the remaining Origin Authorities. Perhaps he successfully obtained such ridiculous power because he was once a key developer of Athenae.
Of course, Minhyuk had never hidden his hatred of Akhan. Nevertheless, he stretched an olive branch and recruited the man because his value was more than enough.
‘Twenty billion won per one activation!’
Akhan felt delighted whenever he recalled the contents of the contract he had signed with Minhyuk.
[Regress]
[You can send up to 100 people back to the state they were in 5 minutes ago.]
[The penalty you will receive will depend on the number of people.][Your level has dropped by 7.]
It was a phenomenal power that could not be described by words alone. Even Akhan himself was shocked when he obtained this power.
‘But in the end, I still got it.’
Although it was a ridiculously shocking power, it was still not something that should be used indiscriminately. The moment one started to use this skill, they were bound to an irreversible path. This was because of the extremely high penalty, which was none other than level drops depending on the number of targets accompanied by the skill\'s use.
Akhan was a ranker with a level beyond 650. A drop in level would be considered fatal for a player like that. Either way, Akhan no longer has any lingering attachment to this game called Athenae.
‘Using it in this place with Minhyuk’s condition makes it a completely different situation.’
The penalty he would receive would depend on the number of people he used Regress on. The shocking part here was that those people\'s level or power did not matter at all. Simply put, this battlefield, where the strongest gathered, was where this skill could shine the brightest.
Regress was a skill that allowed the targets to experience regression. All their skills, and even the buffs they applied to them five minutes ago, would be available again. The most shocking part of this skill was that there was no cooldown time.
Akhan cackled wildly. “Twenty billion won per activation!!!”
Bang!!!
Meanwhile, Minhyuk slammed Helenia’s head on the ground repeatedly.
Bang, bang, bang–!
Minhyuk was not a reckless fool.
‘She is hailed as the Immortal Sorceress.’
The fact that the word “Immortal” was in her name meant that she was someone who did not die easily. That was why they had all expected that she would have the power that would allow her to recover all at once.
‘We’re immortals, too.’
This was what Minhyuk had concluded.
“Ho- hoho… It seems like we have been tricked.”
Barbarian looked quite surprised.
‘This is why it’s dangerous for mankind to gather and band together.’
The more diverse the humanity’s strongest gathered, the more power and opportunities they would have.
Once again, attacks poured onto Helenia.
Crack, crack, crack–!
Then, her body, which was completely covered in blood, started to twist strangely. When everyone turned to look at her, Golden Mage Ali appeared using Teleport.
“Mass Teleport.”
Immediately after, he returned to his original position and brought everybody else along.
‘As expected, it’s not easy to kill Helenia. However, it’s not as if our attacks aren’t working.’
Their odds of winning had increased considerably just by confirming this fact.
Helenia, with her head bent backward, jumped to her feet.
“You…!”
An overwhelming rage engulfed her, and this rage was directed at Minhyuk, who ran away at the perfect time. In her eyes, mankind was just a plaything. She would kill them if she was bored and let them be if she did not find them fun!
Crack, crack, crack–!
Helenia held her head and turned it back to its original position. A red glow enveloped her body, and it was restored to its peak condition once again.
She felt no guilt at crushing these insignificant bugs in front of her. In Helenia’s view, the humans were nothing more than that.
“Eat shit, Helenia.”
Helenia’s face grew ugly. The beings that were bugs in her eyes dared to provoke her? Soon, her ugly expression morphed into a terrifyingly icy one.
“I almost fell for that provocation.”
In a battle, the ones who lost their cool could not execute their powers properly. At this moment, Helenia realized, ‘I’m going to die if I continue playing around?’
Barbarian, who was riding atop one of his monsters, asked, “How is it? Is there anything I can help you with?”
“It’s not yet time,” Helenia said, her figure disappearing from Minhyuk’s eyes.
She was already in the middle of the allied forces when she appeared again.
Crackle–!
At her fingertips, a fireball burned to life. The Fireball she cast was dozens of times larger than the Fireballs cast by ordinary mages. Then, she stretched her hand out and shot hundreds of balls of fire.
Boom, boom, boom–!
Explosions erupted amidst the allied forces non-stop, sweeping thousands of troops in one fell swoop.
Rumble–!
It was immediately followed by an earth-shattering Earthquake that engulfed an entire area within a three-kilometer radius and buried all of the soldiers underneath.
Crackle–!
The weak flames in her hands produced hundreds of overwhelmingly large Firestorms that reached the skies and wiped out the soldiers until no trace of them was left.
Of course, Helenia was also being bombarded by intense attacks. However, the formidable and sturdy shield around her did not break despite the tens of thousands of attacks and protected her firmly.
“Did you know why I became the Pillar of Magic?” Helenia smiled coldly.
Perhaps the reason why she was given such a title was because of this.
Rumble–!
A small tower slowly emerged from the ground after she stabbed her staff on the ground.
[Helenia’s Magic Tower is absorbing the mana of everyone who has perished.]
“Because I am the only mage who can reach and go beyond the limits of magic.”
According to humans, the highest level that a mage had reached was the Ninth Class. As for Helenia, she had long transcended the Ninth Class. If one followed the class standards, she was probably equivalent to the Thirteenth Class. And with the help of this magic tower, she could use a much higher level of magic.
The magic tower sucked the blue mana from the dead and the dying troops.
“Destroy it!”
“We have to destroy it!”
Powerful skills shot out and aimed at both Helenia and her magic tower.
Vwoooong…!
Alas, even those skills and magic attacks were devoured by the magic tower.
[Warning!]
[Warning!]
[Warning!]
[Someone is trying to use a Magic Across All Eras.]
While everyone was frozen, Minhyuk tried to use his “Calamity” to stop Helenia from casting more magic.
Crackle–!
His sword stabbed straight through Helenia.
“...?”
Usually, a mage’s casting would fail if attacked during the process. Despite being attacked, Helenia’s magic casting did not fail.
Helenia, with the sword still in her heart, grinned at Minhyuk.
[Someone has activated a Magic Across All Eras.]
Helenia cackled as she watched the flames of Calamity fall from the sky.
“You came.”
Helenia smiled in delight.
In the sky above them, a spear engulfed with blazing white flames could be seen falling. It looked quite similar to the Diss she and Ali had used before, but its power was incomparable to ordinary ones. In the past, 20% of mankind was killed by this power alone. A bright and blinding light erupted from the falling spear.
Beeeeeeeeeep–!
Minhyuk’s ears rang as his vision turned white. It was as if a flash bomb had erupted before him. Every time he blinked, a white light would always appear alongside the falling spear.
In the end, the spear fell among the allied forces.
Boom!!!
A bright light spread around and wiped out most of the allied forces. It looked like a nuclear bomb had fallen.
[The Allied Forces have lost 14.6 million troops!]
“...”
Minhyuk was rendered speechless. Fortunately, most of the Beyond the Heavens Empire\'s vassals and troops were able to escape the skill’s area of effect. However, the fact that a single magical attack could kill more than 10 million troops would remain.
‘This is not even at the level of the Eight Pillars’ Disaster…’
It was unbelievable that a power that was not even at the level of a Disaster could cause this much damage.
Minhyuk turned to look at Helenia’s magic tower. He thought, ‘I have to destroy that magic tower!’
He was again speechless when he looked closely at the magic tower.
[Helenia’s Magic Tower. Durability: 9,613,000. Defensive Power: 54,300.]
‘This is crazy…’
Even if all of the vassals of the Beyond the Heavens Empires, the rankers, and the rest of the troops used their one-shot kill skills, lethal skills, and most powerful abilities, with the magic tower’s level of durability and defensive power, they would still not be able to break it and make it fall.
‘As long as that magic tower stands, Helenia can continue to cast magic at that level.’
Why was Helenia able to kill many humans in such a short period? This question finally had an answer.
‘That magic tower can continuously absorb the mana of the ones Helenia had killed. This allows her to use that mana to summon that spear constantly.’
Flinch–
Goosebumps rose all over Minhyuk’s body. Nonetheless, it was not yet over. Spears engulfed in white flames appeared one after another in the sky above them and fell with a flash of light.
Once again, Minhyuk’s vision turned white and the white light overlapped with the falling spears. When the ringing of his ears disappeared, eighth spears were already nearing the ground.
‘Akhan’s there too.’
Yes, Akhan was also within the skill\'s range. Of course, Akhan had the power to protect himself. In response, Helenia summoned gigantic vines and wrapped them around Akhan to stop him from trying to escape her spears.
When the spears were only fifty meters away from the ground, Minhyuk thought of someone. That man had also prepared to the utmost of his ability for this fight against Helenia.
“How is it? How do you feel about witnessing a Magic Across All Eras for the first time?” Helenia cackled.
Then, another notification rang all over the world.
[Someone is trying to use a Magic Across All Eras.]
At that moment, Minhyuk saw a man floating above him.
Using magic against Helenia was useless. But did that mean the mages should only twist their fingers regretfully? No. The best mages of the Luvien Empire, the great mages, and the mages from Level 600 and above from all over the world gathered around Ali.
True, they could not win against Helenia using magic. However…
–It will be different if you gather all of your mana in one person.
This was what Ali had told him.
–Envious of Helenia’s Magic Tower, the God of Magic turned to Dark Magic.
–This Dark Magic can allow one to gather the mana of all of the mages around them and can allow one to go beyond the limits. I recently acquired this skill.
–Of course, one has to pay the price.
Minhyuk looked at Ali in confusion. Back then, Ali smiled faintly and said.
-I will be deprived of the God of Magic’s seat. Of course, this only applies if I use dark magic.
Minhyuk did not want to accept such a sacrifice. Ali just chuckled.
–It’s okay. If I ever use it, then I…
Minhyuk stared at Ali floating in the sky above them. His usual golden hair looked different. His hair, fluttering from the influx of mana, had turned white and long.
Ali looked down at Minhyuk with a small smile before looking above the sky.
[The Magic Across All Eras has been activated.]
Ali gracefully stretched out his hand above him. This magic was the last form of Ali’s unique skill, Compression.
Ping–!
Eight spears covered with white flames gathered above Ali’s palm. Then, Ali grabbed the eight spears and threw them down.
Fwoosh–!
Seven spears covered with white flames shot straight toward Helenia’s magic tower. The mages, who had already prepared to evacuate all of the troops in the vicinity of the magic tower, used Mass Teleport at the same time.
Bang–!
A powerful force erupted and brought down the magic tower. At the same time, the remaining spear fell upon Helenia.
“W- what…?!”
Despite the notifications ringing in Ali’s ears, there was a smile on his face as he looked at the flustered Helenia.
[You have used dark magic and tarnished the proud name of the God of Magic.]
[You are now deprived of the seat of the God of Magic.]
[All special privileges you have received as the God of Magic will disappear.]
BOOM!!!
The final spear, covered with white flames, stabbed through Helenia.
Minhyuk gulped dryly as he recalled Ali’s words.
–It’s fine. If I ever use then…
–I’ll just become one of the Eight Pillars, the Immortal Sorcerer.
Bang–!
An earth-shattering explosion shook the entire world.
