Chapter 81 The Plan
Chapter 81 The Plan
?Liam thought of the easiest and most efficient way to make use of the things in his possession and the means at his disposal.
He spoke with the natives for a few minutes to make sure that they understood their tasks in the plan before he got started.
After retrieving several Lumina Needles, he injected them with enough Arcane Power to trigger their effect.
He pulled his hand back a little and threw them forward with a big horizontal sweep, illuminating the underground room with a bright dazzling light.
Roars of pain and confusion filled the hall due to the sudden emergence of the dazzling light. Seconds passed, yet the light showed no signs of dimming down. On the contrary, it looked like the dazzling light was getting stronger and brighter with every passing second.
That was not a coincidence, but precisely planned, caused by the repetitive usage of the Lumina Needles.
In less than 30 seconds, Liam had triggered and thrown more than fifty Lumina Needles. He was not actually sure how many he was now left with in the second Casket of Trickery.
However, he knew that the Lumina Needles were a necessity, just like the other purchases he had completed.
[2x ?Leather Flasks[Water of Liran](C Rank)?have been purchased. 30 Arcanium have been deducted!]
[10x ?Brick of Xivaliboom(B Rank)?have been purchased. 100 Arcanium have been deducted!]
[10x ?Sticky Rope(F Rank)? have been purchased. 5 Arcanium have been deducted!]
The price he paid was painfully high, adding the expensive Lumina Needles he had simply around as if they were grains of sand on a beach, but Liam would rather reach deep into his pockets and empty it rather than die. He was not that stingy! Furthermore, the purchased items had all their use. It was not as if he wasted his money needlessly!
[?Leather Flasks[Water of Liran]?–Circleless C Rank–
Description: An ordinary leather flask filled with the Water of Liran. The water of Liran is highly nutritious and infused with a large amount of Arcane Power.
Remark: It is highly conductive, even more than ordinary water. Be careful!]
[?Brick of Xibaliboom?–Circleless B Rank–
Description: The Brick of Xibaliboom is highly durable. Even attacks issued by beings with one Arcane Circle will find a hard time destroying buildings constructed with the Brick of Xibaliboom.
Remark: Don't every let anyone ignite a Spark near the Brick of Xibaliboom. With its great endurance comes a great downside…BOoOm!]
[?Stick Rope?–Circleless F Rank–
Description: The Sticky Rope is an ordinary rope with a sticky side. Can easily stick anything to it!
Remark: The heavier the stuck object, the shorter duration for which its adhesive property will be in effect when carried around!]]
The leather flasks filled with the Water of Liran were pierced by the Arcane Kunai's razor-sharp blade. Afterward, the Arcane Kunai shot through the air with the leather flasks hanging down its blade, sprinkling water upon the ground and Lesser Demons. The Arcane Power within the Arcane Kunai was quickly depleted but Liam couldn't focus on that too much. He made sure that the preparations were completed before the dazzling lights of the Lumina Needles would disperse.
The thunderous roars that reverberated through the entire hall shook the ground, indicating that the Shedim Champion Boss was enraged. That was to be expected even if it was not exactly in Liam's favor.
He took a deep breath when the Arcane Kunai returned to him, almost fully depleted. The leather flasks were emptied of every single drop of the Water of Liran that had spread throughout the entire underground hall. Using the Arcane Power accumulated inside the Blanchal Silk Gloves to fill the Arcane Kunai to the brim, Nial used the Sticky Ropes to attach the Bricks of Xibaliboom to them. One Sticky Rope was glued to the surface of one Brick of Xivaliboom each before the Arcane Kunai picked them up using the flat side to balance the tied-together knots and flung them to the designated area.
One Sticky Rope after another was cut off from the tied knot. The Bricks of Xibaliboom landed on and around the Skullthrone, roughly in the area, they were supposed to land.
Liam continued to will the Arcane Kunai to do certain things, until everything had been set up. The Arcane Kunai shot back to him mere moments before the dazzling lights of the Lumina Needles died down.
The dazzling lights were now replaced by dim lighting and an ominous atmosphere that was filled with the uncontrollable rage of the Lesser Demons.
"Rex!" Liam ordered calmly, which caused Rex to shout out loud as he used his entire accumulated Arcane Power in a single attack that targeted the Skullthrone.
Meanwhile, Liam retrieved a bunch of vials that he had found in the shops of the dwarves. He didn't like the Dwarves but their tools and weapons for war were impeccable. No matter what he wanted to say against them, the Dwarven race was one of the few races he hated for being too good at their job when it came to creating destructive weapons!
[10x ?Small Lightning Vial[Purple](D Rank)? have been purchased from the Tricky Dwarven Shop. 50 Arcanium have been deducted!]
[?Small Lightning Vial[Purple]?–Circleless D Rank–
Description: A small lightning bolt has been stored and compressed inside the vial. Upon shattering, a small lightning bolt will be released!
Remark: Loud, dangerous, dazzling, and sizzling. Don't be a fool!]
Arcane Power had to be injected into the vials to weaken their durability. They would then shatter upon landing wherever Liam wanted them to end up.
He used his whole physical strength which was further amplified by circulating Arcane Power through his body to release the ten small bolts of purple lightning all over the arena. Meanwhile, Rex's huge golden lightning bolt had impacted as well. It exploded on the Skullthrone where the golden electricity currents spread out causing damage all over the place. Sparks were ignited, which resulted in thunderous explosions to erupt. One explosion after another, totaling ten, followed suit.
The explosion caused the most damage, resulting in the stability of the Skullthrone deteriorating drastically until the first Skulls crumbled due to the tremendous force of the explosions that happened all around it.
As for the electricity currents, they kept spreading through the entire room, empowered by the massive amount of Arcane Power in the room and conducted through the Water of Liam that was sprinkled in every nook and cranny of the room.
Liam and the others were meanwhile staring at the spectacle that unfolded in front of them, their eyes mirroring the purple and golden currents that wreaked havoc wherever one could see.
