Chapter 324: 255. Chaos at the Plaza Part 3.
Looking at Irmela who was continuously chanting a spell, John immediately guessed and muttered, "It seems, he is focusing on gathering mana to keep that s.h.i.+eld stable. Looks like I will need a mental and Soul attack to make a dent on his s.h.i.+eld."
At this time, Quill immediately bought 2 Bazookas along with some special rifles after looking that the situation was all safe.
John smiled in joy as soon as he saw the Bazookas and the newest rifles, "Good Timing. Give me the Bazooka, I will immediately engrave it with soul magic while he is busy defending."
Quill immediately spoke after hearing John, "It is already engraved with Dark magic, your Majesty. You can only engrave the Sh.e.l.ls and bullets for now."
John looked at the Bazooka and rifles after he heard Quill as he nodded and spoke, "Hmm... Ok, give me the Sh.e.l.ls and bullets, I will engrave them."
After giving the weapons, Quill took note of the situation as he ordered Grey to escort the diplomats to appropriate positions that will be safe.
Meanwhile, the soul-blood Projectiles. .h.i.t Irmela for a whole 5 minutes before it stopped. Irmela had a keen look on John as he doubted that John was bluffing so that he- deactivates the artifact which may render all of his efforts useless. He observed John for a whole 5 more minutes after the attack stopped as he saw that John was rapidly engraving some weapons with Soul magic which alerted him while the Amulet of thorns turned into dust.
He slowly muttered as he stopped chanting, "How can any human engrave a weapon so fast? It is next to impossible. Even the best Grand Engravers will take 20 times more time to engrave something with magic this fast."
Irmela"s whole body was tattered in dust and blood as he looked like a vagabond with a fancy sword in his right hand when the attacks stopped.
Without waiting for Irmela to attack again, John immediately took the Bazooka and ordered Quill, "Order Arlen and his troops to use the special Rifles and Magic Bullets on these intruders immediately so as to lessen the pressure on the troops escorting the citizens."
Looking at John who was in a panic, Irmela laughed as he chanted another spell as raised his sword and light spirit b.a.l.l.s gathered in a fast pace above the sword.
Irmela then waved his sword in John"s direction as the Light b.a.l.l.s were directed in John"s direction. John too wasn"t idling around as he aimed the bazooka on Irmela and shot it immediately.
Looking at the Bazooka, Irmela snorted in contempt and spoke, "Hmph, previously I wasn"t aware that you had the artifact of demons to counter but this time what can that puny weapon of your do to me?"
Unknown to Irmela, The Fired Bazooka immediately reached Irmela and burst along with Dark and Soul Magic. This time, the Bazooka did more damage to Irmela than what was done by the Amulet of Thorns attack. The Bazooka burst with a b.l.o.o.d.y red color as soon as it came in contact with Irmela.
"This fast? I almost couldn"t react in this body."
As soon as the Bazooka burst, there was a b.l.o.o.d.y abdomen where the innards of Irmela could be seen. Irmela too was in a big shock after suffering an attack of such caliber.
His immediate thought was, "How could this be possible? This is 3 times more painful than the previous Amulet of Thorns which is considered as one of the top 10 artifacts of demons. One Amulet of Thorns alone takes around 2 years to finish by 2 Grand Magicians, 1 Chaos Alchemist, 1 Grand Engraver and 1 Grand Blacksmith. Just the amount of resources used is astonis.h.i.+ng to make it. How can this brat have a weapon of this caliber? Even the magic engraved and used on this weapon is 2 levels lower than Amulet of Thorns."
John too was in shock as he a.n.a.lyzed the situation and concluded that it was due to Soul Magic and Dark Magic which was conserved until the moment it burst unlike the Amulet of thorns which continuously drained Mana and Magic as an energy fuel while there is also the great damage done due to explosion.
John thought as he looked at the effect of Bazooka, "Looking at Irmela"s face and the reaction it seems pretty effective. I guess this is the best effect of the combination of Technology and Magic. While using bow and arrows, this is not visible as the power is not great and hence it is less effective. This time the multiplying effect is much better. It seems we need to make a magic engraving university to train people."
Looking at this situation, even Lord Leo and Xylo were quite shocked as they didn"t expect such a situation.
John meanwhile looked at the light b.a.l.l.s which came his way, John again made a s.p.a.ce portal in the Light b.a.l.l.s path and opened the other s.p.a.ce door behind Leo who was fighting with Xylo and Vlad. This time, the s.p.a.ce door worked and immediately transported the light b.a.l.l.s.
The light b.a.l.l.s came in contact with one of the templars as he got enveloped in a White fire which burned him to ashes. The Cardinal was quite startled as he made a s.h.i.+eld.
Irmela too got alerted as he saw the s.p.a.ce door which closed. He controlled the Light b.a.l.l.s mentally as he changed the direction of Light b.a.l.l.s towards Xylo"s group and Vlad"s group.
Meanwhile, John, immediately took another Bazooka Sh.e.l.l as he didn"t give Irmela any time and shot another one in his direction. Irmela was quite startled as he saw this situation and abused John immediately. Irmela grudgingly took out his Ring which immediately transformed in a s.h.i.+eld.
The s.h.i.+eld blocked the Bazooka but it was still burst to pieces however Irmela remained safe due to the s.h.i.+eld taking most of the damage and only the debris reaching his body.
