Chapter 19 Elemental Combination Techniques
Chapter 19 Elemental Combination Techniques
"Hey, Jack!"
Without turning his head, Rom shouted, "Recite the incantation for the [Wind Creation] spell again, I need to confirm it."
Jack, who was beaming with pride, paused for a moment upon hearing this, then quickly ran over and whispered:
"My lord, the Wind Creation spell is just a basic first-tier spell like the Wind Walk spell! It has no destructive power; it can only create a strong wind in place."
You're not planning to blow those monsters away with the wind, are you? That's impossible... those monsters weigh more than cows!
Rom smiled. "I know you can't blow away monsters. But I can blow fire."
"Huh?" Jack didn't understand what Romé meant.
"Stop talking nonsense and read it now!"
"Oh, oh!" Jack didn't dare to be negligent and quickly recited the incantation for the [Wind Spell] in a clear and accurate manner.
With the final voice sample comparison confirmed, Rom stared at the system panel in front of him.
Data comparison complete.
[Wind generation technology successfully optimized. The limitation on the gentle breeze has been removed, and the wind speed valve restriction has been lifted...]
【…】
[Estimated computing power consumption: 2 points. Compile and run?]
Rom nodded in satisfaction. "Alright, let me see how effective the combination technique is."
"run!"
He slammed down the Enter key and simultaneously pushed his left hand forward forcefully.
As the command was given, a strange scene unfolded.
Suddenly, the surroundings became quiet.
The shouts of the guards, the roars of the monsters below the city, and even the sound of the swirling snow seemed to be blocked by some force in that instant.
Jack, who was standing next to him, also noticed that something was wrong.
He felt the sudden change in air pressure and his heart skipped a beat.
He had studied elemental theory many times in the magic classes in Red Dragon City, and he knew all too well what this extreme silence meant!
This is a vacuum! It's the extremely brief calm before a raging storm and tsunami arrives!
"Everyone, hold on tight to the city wall! Get down!"
Jack's expression changed drastically, and he shouted in a broken voice.
Almost at the same moment Jack lay down.
Waaah!
A gust of wind suddenly swept in!
A violent gust of wind swept across the city wall, causing the guards on the wall to stagger and even the battlements of the wall, which were built of huge stones, to sway slightly under the wind pressure.
If Jack hadn't warned them in time, several guards would have been blown off the city wall.
Elena's robes were almost blown off by the wind, so she quickly crouched down and pressed down on the injured Kevin.
"Good heavens... such strong winds! This is a hurricane!"
"This isn't a wind spell, it's a storm spell!"
Jack clung tightly to the wall, his heart trembling.
He didn't understand why Luo Mu could cast the wind spell after only hearing the incantation twice, but he knew very well that even the wind instructors in his academy who majored in wind magic could not do such a terrifying wind force that could shake a city wall!
However, the hurricane did not damage the city walls; instead, it blew precisely towards the massive orange wall of fire in front of them.
boom!
In an instant, the airflow brought an abundance of oxygen and enormous potential energy, causing the previously quiet wall of fire to burn incredibly brightly.
Driven by the hurricane, the entire wall of fire was instantly magnified several times, and the raging flames transformed into a sky-covering fire net, swept by the hurricane and rushing towards the monster horde below the city with overwhelming force.
This was Romú's idea.
Appropriate wind elements can not only fuel the flames but also move them.
By combining the two, the mobile firewall is complete!
...
The horde of monsters below panicked upon seeing the overwhelming sea of magical fire descending upon them.
They fully experienced the fear inherent in their nature.
The monsters no longer cared about attacking the city; they screamed and fled frantically into the forest.
But the wind was too fast.
The monster, unable to dodge in time, was instantly engulfed by the massive firestorm.
The intense heat and howling winds combined to scorch the thick-skinned monsters, leaving them no chance to struggle. Their bodies were instantly burned and torn apart, turning them into rolling fireballs.
boom!
The massive fire swept across the forest, engulfing the distant black pine forest.
The pine forest was quickly set ablaze, and raging fires shot into the sky, turning half the night sky crimson.
Those magical beasts that had managed to escape into the forest dared not linger for even a moment, and scattered in terror, disappearing without a trace.
In less than half a minute.
The entire battlefield fell silent.
All that remained was the crackling sound of the burning forest in the distance, and the charred remains of a dozen or so magical beasts still emitting wisps of smoke beneath the city walls.
...
Luo Mu slowly lowered his hands, looked at the results before him, and nodded in satisfaction.
"A perfect combination."
Although the current system version is uncertain, it is not yet possible to integrate the underlying code of two different elements into a single program.
However, this external modular combination model is clearly very practical.
In the future, we can try to develop more hybrid modes.
...
The silence on the city wall lasted for a good ten seconds.
"We held on... the monsters have fled! We survived!"
The captain of the guard was the first to react. He looked at the burning forest in the distance, suddenly raised his longsword, and let out a shout.
This roar ignited the atmosphere, and deafening cheers erupted from the city walls.
Jack scrambled to his feet, not even bothering to brush off the dust, his face flushed with excitement, and shouted directly at Rom:
"Master Rom... I have never seen such an imaginative combination of spells!"
"Two of the most basic spells, and you've managed to achieve such an effect!"
At this moment, Jack's adoration for Rom had reached an unparalleled level.
He was absolutely certain that the person he had latched onto was a peerless genius, one in a million on the entire continent.
Moreover, he is a legendary "dual-elemental mage".
...
"Thank you so much for your help, Grand Master!"
On the city wall, the captain of the guard, who had escaped death, ran over, ignoring Kevin who was still lying on the ground coughing up blood, and knelt down on one knee in front of Rom.
"Master, your magic is superb; you have saved our Silver Town! May I ask your name? We must report this to the lord, for your..."
"I am merely a guest of the mage Elena."
Romü lightly flicked his sleeve, shaking off the ashes from his cloak, and calmly interrupted him.
"The battle for the city's defenses is not yet completely over; there may still be surviving monsters below. You have a lot to do, so don't worry about me."
"yes!"
Upon hearing this, the guard captain suddenly stood up and gave Luo Mu a solemn military salute.
He hadn't known Rom's identity before, but now he was certain:
This unparalleled master, who wishes to remain anonymous, must be a high-ranking mage secretly brought in from the main city by the mage Elena! His status is absolutely terrifyingly high, and he must obey orders unconditionally!
The captain immediately turned around, regaining his composure, and ordered everyone to continue setting up defenses. He also opened the side gate and sent out an elite squad to inspect the battlefield and search for any remaining monsters lurking nearby.
...
Not far away, Elena stared blankly at Rom's back, her hands gripping the hem of her robe, which were already soaked with cold sweat.
She was still in shock and couldn't calm down.
"How is that possible? Two years ago, when my teacher and I visited Blackrock Town... I saw with my own eyes that he was still an ordinary person with no magical fluctuations."
Even if he later gradually awakened his talent, it was absolutely impossible for him to have improved to this level in just two years!
"Could it be that the Mage Hamelin hasn't been living in seclusion for the past ten years at all, but has been secretly nurturing a genius student?"
"Moreover, he didn't use a staff or chant any incantations, yet he instantly fused two completely different natural elements... Could this be some kind of... lost [ancient forbidden technique] recorded in the secret scrolls of the Holy See?"
Thinking of this, Elena's heart tightened suddenly.
She recalled how, just now in the mage's pavilion, she had refused Rom's request for help to cure his illness because of her own will.
Now, instead of holding a grudge, the other party has stepped in to save the entire Silver Town…
"My actions have probably thoroughly angered this highly skilled mage. If he gets angry..."
