Chapter 303 Weakness
Chapter 303 Weakness
The Tower Lord was unaware of Totemic Barbarians' existence and called them tattooed barbarians just like Millie and the others did.
Needless to say, they shouldn't be aware that these types of barbarians were immune to elemental arts but vulnerable to mind attacks.
It means that if Ignacy controlled the Tower to suppress them with an elemental art, it would really be useless against them.
Vincent wanted to tell him about this information but he was alarmed by the mention of the strange curse.
No wonder the others left the area as they were afraid of being cursed by the Warlocks. Perhaps, there is already a sample made so they immediately dispersed.
"Master Ignacy… I have a way of dealing with curses… For now, please focus on using Consciousness Energy to attack the Totemic Barbarians…" Vincent replied surprising not just Ignacy but the other Archons who heard him as well.
"Boy… Their curses are on a different level… If we don't properly suppress the curse and affected us, it could kill us. We're already in bad condition" One of the Archons said. Even though Vincent is the Tower Lord's disciple, it doesn't mean that he's knowledgeable about all the curses that these Warlocks could do.
If they believed in him and died from the curse, they could only blame themselves for believing a child who wasn't even half of their age.
Nevertheless, his suggestion of using their Consciousness Energy to attack was something that they could try.
After all, to become a Grand Magus that could cast multiple Mana Arts at the same time, they needed to possess a strong Mental Strength or Consciousness Energy.
The only problem is that they weren't normally using this type of energy to attack someone.
This is why even if Vincent suggested this method, they needed quite some time to adjust their energy and form an attack.
***
While they were still hesitating, the Barbarians started attacking again… The Warlocks muttered something on their staff before they summon multiple balls of ghostly purple flames!
'Hmm?'
There is no intense fluctuation of mana or violent energy coming from it.
Vincent can only guess that these are the curses that they were talking about.
Realizing this, Vincent immediately pulled out one of the items that he recently obtained…
[ River Dragon's Left Eye ]
[ Quality: Mythic
Number of Enhancements: 8/10
Durability: 625/840
Cold Aura: 300
Charm: 30
Description: The left eye of a River Dragon. This material can attract other Mythical Beasts and can be used to create Mythical-Rank Equipment.
Remarks: Cold Aura attribute found. Durability and its attributes will be upgraded in every enhancement. ]
[ Skills:
Anti-Curse Field: In exchange for 600 units of mana, the left eye will create a powerful field that stops any Mana Arts or techniques related to malediction or curse. Durability will be consumed every usage of the skill.
Summon Flood: In exchange for 3,000 units of mana, the eye will summon a flood. Durability will be consumed every usage of the skill. ]
It is rare to find an alchemy material that has an active skill like this.
Normally, these materials would only have attributes on them and it requires the skills of alchemists to bring out the powers contained within them.
However, the Mythical Rank item is obviously different. Not only it has attributes, but it also has two active skills that anyone can immediately use if they have enough mana.
Whoosh~
The Cold Aura coming from the River Dragon Eye was immediately sensed by everyone as soon as he pulled out the item. Nevertheless, they didn't seem to care about it since it may just be an ice elemental mana art.
But suddenly, something unusual happened.
The purple flames that they plan to contain using their sealing technique dissipated!
These flames should be indestructible or something that no elemental Mana Arts could stop! However, they just disappeared as if the Warlocks decided to call them off!
They wanted to find an answer by asking Vincent but five of the Totemic Barbarians pounced over them!
They hastily created a wall of earth to block them! Previously, they have only killed two Totemic Barbarians after one of them used his Tier 5 Elemental Art but they can't do it again… After all, they were already affected by the curse and it is stopping them from using any of their Tier 4 and Tier 5 Mana Arts again.
Bam!
The earth wall was destroyed.
It was obviously not enough but it bought them some time. Since attacking them with elemental arts was just a waste of time, the most they could do was to slow them by using water or earth elemental sealing arts.
Earth Wall! Water Prison!
Soft Ground! Water Bind!
Since they were all Grand Magus, they can cast multiple Mana Arts at the same time and it was enough to push these barbarians away. They may not kill them but they can at least stop their advance. Each of their Mana Arts can buy them 2 to 3 seconds…
Currently, they are waiting for the Grand Knights to deal with these unusual barbarians. The problem is that most of their employed Grand Knights were sent to assist with matters regarding the spreading plague.
It would take a few more minutes before they could come back here. Of course, calling the Magic Knights or even the Arch Knights will not going to help so they didn't bother calling for them.
They had truly made a miscalculation today. They blundered.
They didn't expect the Barbarians have already reached the level of strength that could just ignore their Elemental Arts. It might be understandable if the magicians that were casting are only Adept or Archmages but they are already Grand Magus! They can't believe that they were unaffected!
If they know that this race is capable of doing this, they have probably eliminated them early on.
"Everyone, listen to my disciple. Use your Consciousness Energy… Stop wasting your Mana with your elemental arts. Hurry!"
Ignacy commanded as he seem to have realized the authenticity of Vincent's words.
