Chapter 634: 634
As I continue to squeeze and crush the mana together, squeezing my minds to the breaking point as I do so, Invidia floats forward, delighted to be finally let off the leash . Not just a little let off the leash either, totally free of my many restrictions .
He's a powerful monster in his own right, this little demon, I only managed to defeat him based on a superior knowledge of jumping . Now all of that power is directed towards the defensive line of the Legion as they await my spell .
It starts with explosions, as it usually does . The tunnel is suddenly rocked with detonations that shake the dust from the stone roof and pierce the oppressive dark with light for just a moment .
BOOM! BOOM!
The little ball flits gleefully in the air, his two long, stick-thin arms dangling down past the wide Cheshire-grin that appears beneath his body .
[Even if you want to keep it . I wantssss your life!] He purrs .
His eye flashes bright with green energy as mana begins to accumulate within the orb . Explosions continue to burst against the shield wall as the envy demon prepares his most powerful attack . The speed he pulls it together still puts me to shame, as his eye is filled to bursting with mana before I'm even close to completing my Gravity Bomb . One more evolution and I'll show you! Damn eyeball .
Ignorant of my own envy, Invidia grins widely before he darts forward and unleashes a terrifying ray energy . The eye beam of death lives again! Even focused on my own growing ball of doom, I take particular interest in watching the Legion deal with this situation . The mages brace hard, more barriers springing to life even as they reach out with their minds to break apart the magic . The beam travels so quickly, they don't get much time before it impacts their shields, shattering one after the other until it crashes into the front line of soldiers .
They brace hard, each one supporting the Legionaries around them, their defensive shields coalescing into one defensive line . The green ray hits home and tries to drill through, a piercing whine rises in the tunnel as the two forces contest each other . Finally, the beam scatters across the face of the shield wall and disperses having failed to break through .
"Bring the artillery!" I call to the ants around me, causing them to shift .
The Legion is still outside the range of most soldiers, but the scouts who've evolved for range will still reach with their acid at this point . Anything we can use to put the heat on them will help, even if only a little . In a few seconds time, the acid barrage begins to fly over my head, forcing the Legion to defend against the sizzling liquid as well as Invidia's magic .
I don't have the minds to pay attention to them anymore, all of my focus is invested in the slowly rotating sphere of gravity magic . It has darkened almost to pure black as I pour every last drop of mana I can get into it until I feel as if I'm trying to squeeze a brick inside another brick, or a thought into Tiny's mind .
