Chapter 386 Tier 5
Chapter 386 Tier 5
"Not good…" Brycen didn't feel comfortable being pointed at by those freaky artillery guns. He already knows that the shells being used in each shot from them were enough to destroy the first generation of flying warship he had seen before.
In addition to this, his Mana is being drained and Mana Bullets are flying at him every now and then…
'Tsk… Fine! Let me show you what a Penta-Caster is like!' Brycen signaled to Shane that he was about to start bullying Vincent.
He didn't really want to win by Penta-Casting Tier 3 Mana Arts since he knows that Vincent isn't a Grand Magus yet. However, he has no other choice. Shane smiled at this as he also wanted to end this battle…
Ending this clash with their dominance is something he wanted to happen before they introduce themselves as Ignacy's disciples.
"Eh? It's that annoying field again!" Shane was flustered after realizing that the surrounding mana suddenly started acting differently. They can't properly form their Tier 3 Mana Arts!
However, they also noticed that Vincent stopped shooting them with Mana Bullets… Even the draining of their mana stopped after the magic-canceling field was created.
It seems that Vincent can't do anything as well if this field was activated.
"This is impressive… Is this one of his gifts or is it a Mana Art?" Brycen muttered.
They don't know the official name of this technique so they just named it the magic-canceling field. They have no idea how this is being done but they weren't too worried about their situation.
"What is this technique?" Brycen asked curiously while looking at the Artillery Guns warily… He's more concerned about those guns pointed at him than Vincent's Mana Arts.
To their surprise, Vincent actually answered his question.
"It's called Mana Distortion… It works really well against Mana Arts formed by Mana Practitioners…"
Vincent replied implying that if they used the skills embedded in Magic Artifacts, the Mana Distortion would have a weaker effect.
"Ohhhh… Mana Distortion. I've heard of that… But I remember that this is extremely difficult to learn… Even the Tower Lord needed five years to master this technique…" Shane muttered after hearing the name of the technique. He didn't even dare to learn this technique… However, Vincent can actually learn this complex technique. No wonder he became the seventh disciple.
'Five years?' Vincent repeated in his mind. He didn't expect that it would be that difficult to learn this Mana Art. If the Tower Lord took that much time, how much more for the others?
Well, he can't look down on them since he learned it through the system's Skill Learning feature.
It was basically cheating so Vincent wouldn't proudly claim that he learned it in just a few minutes.
Anyway, Vincent stopped chatting with them as he wanted to try a few more Mana Arts and Magic Tools to suppress them…
Vincent used other Magic Tools like Beast Crown Bow, Dark Arcane Sword, and Discipline Staff. They were some of his Pseudo-Legendary Weapons that he was planning to nurture and advance them to the Awakened Rank someday…
Because there is a chance that his selected item can be destroyed during the Awakening process, he didn't want to Awaken his favorite items. Furthermore, he felt that he wouldn't enjoy wielding them if he knows that they are sentient.
The battle lasted for 10 more minutes because of this… Brycen and Shane also realized that they are being used by Vincent to try all his new Artifacts which annoyed them a little. They felt that Vincent was just playing around.
Furthermore, the item skills were quite random and it's stressing them out…
The Beast Crown Bow can shoot fire and ice arrows while the Dark Arcane Sword can create illusions and it could even cut their weakened Elemental Art.
'This Mana Distortion is so annoying…' Shane thought as he looked at Vincent wielding his Discipline Staff this time.
Although the two of them can use Tier 5 Mana Art to stop the Mana Distortion from affecting them, that would consume a lot of mana and they won't be able to use it for 10 to 15 days.
Is it worth the price?
They didn't think so. After all, they only wanted to test Vincent's skills and personality.
Boom! Boom!
Brycen and Shane were pushed to the wall of the inner city…
Vincent just used the staff to push them away… It didn't hurt them in any way but they are unable to stop being pushed pack…
It was a mysterious artifact with a pushing ability and the two felt very frustrated about this…
"Aahhh! I don't care anymore… I'll go all out… I'll show him what Tier 5 Mana Art looks like… Shane, just watch me…" Brycen said as he knows that once he used his Tier 5 Mana Art, Shane didn't have to act anymore as it would just be too much.
Vincent noticed what was going on as he even stopped his Mana Distortion from affecting Brycen… Yes, he wanted to experience his Tier 5 Mana Art…
It's probably arrogance or confidence that is making Vincent assured that he wouldn't be in danger. He has been training with Celestials before and his fear of things had basically changed because of it.
The soldiers or the crowd watching the battle noticed the sudden change in the surrounding mana.
Brycen, the man with dirty blond hair and wearing rags as his clothes, suddenly become like a black hole as he started sucking a lot of mana…
At this rate, even the mana supplies of the City Barrier will get taken!
Vincent's first reaction was to stop it from happening but he realized that the rate of mana consumption suddenly slowed down.
It seems that Brycen didn't require that much mana…
'Now, show me this Tier 5 Mana Art of yours…' Vincent thought as he looked at Brycen.
Whom… Whom… Whom…
Strong fluctuations of mana surrounded Brycen as he curled up like a fetus while floating above the ground. He also covered himself with red energy or perhaps, a fire element to protect himself during his transformation… This preparation lasted for 10 more seconds…
Thud!
Brycen finally removed the red energy covering him and showed his glossy black body with a red pattern on his torso…
It was like he had transformed into a Black Steel Body!
'What is this Tier 5 Mana Art?' Vincent mused but suddenly, he felt Brycen staring at him as he realized that the man's eyes had also turned red…
If he adds a couple of horns on his forehead, Vincent will probably mistake him for a black demon.
