Chapter 338: Elemental Domain! Revealing the Trump Card
"So annoying!!"
At this moment.
Albert's normally honest face finally showed a hint of anger.
Enough!!
This non-specialist and the Azure Dragon repeatedly used such petty tricks to toy with him!
Making him not only lose face in front of the audience but also disgrace the Giant Kingdom!
He used to be the one toying with others, but now it was his turn.
When had he ever suffered such humiliation?
'Endless Thunder Domain'!
No-staff casting!!
You couldn't see Albert waving his staff, nor could you see his chanting.
In the next instant...
Buzz!!
A violent and terrifying thunder energy erupted from Albert's heart!
Bang!!
Meng Shuang, who was trying to sneak attack Albert, hadn't had time to retreat before she was directly blown away by this unstoppable thunder energy, crashing to the ground and stirring up a cloud of dust.
Whoosh!!
Suddenly, a gust of wind rose from the arena, sweeping away the dust.
It turned out that the vanished non-specialist reappeared, not only sweeping away the dust with a wave of his sleeve but also grabbing Meng Shuang by the collar, helping her to cushion the immense force of being blown away by Albert's thunder energy.
However...
At this moment, Meng Shuang looked a bit disheveled.
Her little face was blackened by the thunder energy, and her petite body occasionally flickered with lightning.
She wasn't injured, but she looked quite comical.
Ling Zhan let go of Meng Shuang's collar and then looked up at the sky above the arena.
He saw that the entire space had transformed into a vast thunder pool filled with destructive power.
Elemental domain.
This is another exclusive trump card given to mages after their second job change.
Like the 'Blood Domain' that Andy displayed earlier, it was a domain expansion skill exclusive to his element.
In their own elemental domain, enemies not only receive corresponding debuff effects but also enhance the caster's attributes to a certain extent.
[Endless Thunder Domain (S): Consumes mana to create a thunder pool.]
Note:
The thunder pool continuously consumes the caster's MP while it exists.
While in the thunder pool, the caster gains a 50% spell damage bonus, 40% spell penetration, and 30% defense and magic resistance boost.
Enemies in the thunder pool are struck by lightning every 2 seconds, which deals damage and puts them in a 'shocked state.'
The thunder pool always follows the caster, keeping the caster at its center.
The caster can freely control the size of the thunder pool.
...
Compared to Andy's 'Blood Domain,' Albert's 'Endless Thunder Domain' was undoubtedly much stronger.
Moreover...
This skill was clearly upgraded with many skill points.
The initial level of the elemental domain skill is actually A+.
Many archmages can only upgrade it to S-.
But Albert upgraded it to 'S.'
Not only can he make the 'elemental domain' follow him, but he can also control the size of the thunder pool.
After all, maintaining the maximum range would exponentially increase mana consumption.
Currently...
Albert's expanded thunder pool did not cover the entire arena but was maintained within a 30-meter radius centered on him.
Obviously, he knew it was impossible to use the 'Endless Thunder Domain' as a decisive move.
Andy's previous failure was clear in his mind.
The non-specialist's high resistances would never allow him to enter the 'shocked state.'
He chose to expand the thunder pool on a small scale to avoid being toyed with again!
Within the thunder pool, he could sense everything!
Even if the opponent used an assassin's stealth techniques, they would be visible to him!
This was an effective anti-ambush skill.
"Not bad! Albert is much smarter than Andy; he knows the elemental domain can't target the high-resistance non-specialist..."
"So he uses this skill as a form of 'self-defense,' at least avoiding further ambushes and tricks."
In the top-tier VIP seats.
Many level 100 powerhouses nodded in agreement with Albert's strategy.
With Andy's previous failure as a lesson, if Albert expanded the thunder pool unnecessarily, it would be foolish.
"Since ambushes are hopeless, is it time for a spell duel?"
Someone laughed and asked.
"Duel? No, you're overthinking it!"
"Even if that non-specialist has spell abilities, their power can't compare to a proper archmage."
"Moreover..."
"Albert's trump card isn't an ordinary spell but a 'composite magic' combining multiple skills!"
"Spell duel? Does a non-specialist even qualify?"
At this moment.
A minister from the Holy Light Empire couldn't help but sneer.
This minister was the one who had been ridiculed by Principal Zhou earlier.
Now that he had a chance to strike back, he wouldn't miss it.
The other powerhouses exchanged glances and nodded slowly.
Although this minister wasn't very powerful, he wasn't wrong.
The non-specialist did have an impressive data panel.
But his equipment wasn't up to par.
This allowed Albert, wearing at least three or four spirit items, to match the non-specialist in attributes.
Currently.
If it came to a spell duel, the non-specialist would indeed be at a disadvantage.
"Look, Albert is really casting composite magic!"
"And it's his trump card, 'Extreme Ice Thunderstorm'!"
"Wow, he's aiming to end the fight with one move!"
Contestants from various countries in the audience exclaimed.
They were clearly familiar with Albert's trump card.
Now it was time to show his killer move!
Originally, Albert wanted to probe his opponent.
But after being toyed with by the opponent's ambushes, he was infuriated.
Now.
With the thunder pool fully expanded, giving him absolute defense.
It was time for a spell duel!
And Albert was very smart!
Besides the thunder pool, all his other skills were hands-free!
To be safe, he likely consulted Andy and learned the reason for Andy's failure.
Therefore, to avoid 'spell circuit countermeasures,' Albert decided on a spell duel!
Damn it, he didn't believe that a non-specialist's spell could be stronger than a proper archmage's!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!
At this moment.
Snowflakes drifted down from the arena.
The snowflakes were accompanied by a fierce storm, making the arena's barrier hum.
And Albert...
Standing high, surrounded by snow and lightning.
Like a god controlling everything!!
