Nameless King

Chapter 990 Solving The First Problem

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Hundreds of attacks rained down on the blue dome, which was almost completely cracked every second. The attacks were all different, dark fireballs, energy beams, violent streams of wind, or massive boulders weighing several tons.

"I see... Well, I think I can help you with that. Honestly, I was worried that I would have to expend all my energy to restore the barrier, so, it's for the best." Marlis muttered with a thoughtful look.

"What did you say...? Do you really have that much energy?" The man was shocked.

"Yeah, my reserves are much greater than yours, that's for sure." Marlis said arrogantly, which made Dragon frown.

"Hmm? Why are you staring at me? Take me to your leader, we don't have much time, do we?" Marlis tilted her head in confusion.

"Agh... Fine." The man sighed, shook his head, and flew forward. Marlis created a stream of flame beside her that carried her.

They moved toward the center of the temple where most of the Dragons were, as well as their leader, who was a man with long azure hair and a stern gaze.

The Dragons saw Marlis, they all knew who she was, but they did not attack or break formation as they understood that one of them was near her.

"Leader! Looks like we got lucky today!" The man exclaimed as he approached the Leader of the Azure Tail.

"Laur... Right?" Marlis asked as she looked at him.

"Yes, that's me." The Leader nodded, "I don't know what's going on here, but it looks like you're not our enemy now, are you? Or, is it just temporary?"

Marlis sighed, "Thinking about the future in a situation like this? You'd have to survive for starters, this dome is about to break." Marlis pointed upward, "However, you're right. Me, Sven, and Osvald are now your allies, all explanations later."

It took Laur only a few seconds to realize what the situation was, he didn't even need to see Marlis's shattered star. He understood that she was only serious because of her sharp and confident gaze.

"Fine. Looks like my man is right and we got lucky today. What is your plan?" Laur was short.

"He told me that you don't have time to pull out enough energy to restore the barrier." Marlis pointed at the Dragon, then she turned around, "And now I see that's exactly what happened."

There were many Dragons around them, almost all of them engaged in the same thing - channeling energy to the barrier.

Some Dragons used their own energy, but most used massive energy crystals. All a Dragon had to do was channel a bit of energy into the crystal, then out of it came a massive blue beam.

"Yes. We're trying to fix it, but we have too little time. Do you have any ideas?" Laur looked at her intently as he crossed his arms over his chest.

Marlis nodded, "There's actually a lot of energy in these crystals, so I think we can do it." Marlis walked over to Laur, "I'll need your energy as well, so give me your hand."

Laur immediately did as Marlis said. Their palms joined, then Marlis directed the energy to Laur, and he did the same.

Gradually their auras grew stronger and when they reached a peak, Marlis made her move.

"Fine, now we can begin." Marlis said calmly as her eyes sparkled.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Space trembled as a small green magic circle appeared above her, surrounded by flames. Marlis directed some energy into the magic circle as it grew several times larger.

Everything happened rather quickly, so in less than a minute the magic circle became so big that it covered the entire temple grounds.

"What next?" Laur asked with a serious expression.

"Nothing complicated. Just trust me and give me control of your energy, without that we can't do anything." Marlis calmly replied as she closed her eyes.

"Sure. Take as much energy as you need. If it will save my people, I will give it all away irrevocably." Laur said confidently as he squeezed Marlis's hand tightly.

Marlis took a deep breath, then among her magic circle, another one appeared, blue, the same color as Laur's energy.

'Damn... If in my team Blind Sorcerer and Abyss Artist are the main experts in magic, then in Sven's team it is definitely Marlis. The magic circle she's created looks pretty damn complicated...' Wain muttered with a thoughtful look.

Whoooooooooooosh.

The blue magic circle became as big as the green one, then it quickly descended to the ground. The blue magic circle went through each Dragon as well as through all the crystals that still had a lot of energy in them.

"Well, I'm almost done. Should I activate the spell right now?" Marlis asked as she glanced at Laur.

"Sure. I'm confident in the strength of our barrier, but given its current state, I don't want to check its limits at all." Laur nodded deeply.

"As you say." Marlis waved her hand.

At the same moment, all the crystals glowed brightly as energy rays began to emerge from them, in much greater volume than before. When the rays passed through the green magic circle, they split into several parts and disappeared like threads among the cracks of the barrier.

The energy was coming out of the crystals quickly, there was no way the Dragons could achieve such a rate with their own powers, so the barrier began to gradually recover.

"This is incredible..." The man muttered with his eyes wide open.

"Yeah... It looks magical." Laur said in disbelief, "Well, I would expect nothing less from Marlis Layre. After all, after the Rulers of your world, you are considered the strongest Arkans."

"Is this true?" Marlis turned to him with a slightly exhausted look.

"Hah, as if you didn't know that." Laur grinned, "Since we solved one of the problems. Would you like to tell me more about your plan? What's Sven up to? As far as I know, he's the most loyal Arkan of them all, though that seems to be a thing of the past, doesn't it?"
