The Military Princess Won’t Fall in Love with a Magic Scientist
Chapter 228 : Chapter 228Chapter 228. Magic Barrage Clash
RIIIP—!
Accompanied by the crisp sound of flesh tearing open, a pair of black, ruined Aether demon wings burst grotesquely from his back, blotting out the silver sky above. His skin rapidly hardened into an obsidian-like keratin shell, while magma-like demonic patterns surged wildly across his body. A twisted black horn pierced through his forehead, pointing straight at the heavens.
In an instant, the polished scoundrel of a young professor vanished without a trace. In his place stood a two-meter-tall infernal demonized being radiating monstrous, overwhelming ferocity.
The surrounding space was thrown into total disorder by that absolute chaos-filled power. The precisely functioning spatial structure was shattered into utter disarray by the sudden eruption of force.
Maxim’s 【Return to Dust】, which was supposed to erase all material structure, was completely neutralized at that very moment, unable to advance even an inch further.
At last, a flicker of change appeared on Maxim’s eternally frozen face.
“The bloodline of a Grand Duke of Hell…” Countless streams of dazzling data flashed through her pitch-black eyes.
“Still not enough.”
And yet within the blazing eyes of the demonized Logaris, burning with crimson Karmic Fire, there still remained the absolute calm and calculation of a scholar.
He was thinking.
Since Maxim possessed 【All-Knowing Eye · Future Sight】 and could observe the flow of the river of time, then why had the Hero King Rolandain been able to defeat her back then?
There was only one answer—cost.
Every spell followed the principle of equivalent exchange. An act as heaven-defying as observing the future was bound to come with terrifying mana consumption and mental strain. The more variables she observed, and the more complex the interfering factors became, the more chaotic the branches of the future would grow, and the required computation would rise exponentially.
As long as he could force her into seeing too much—so many possible futures that her processing ability burst under the load—then so-called omniscience would become a joke!
“Let me see just how many ways your eyes can watch you die!”
Logaris did not charge straight ahead like a brute. Instead, he raised his right hand, now covered in savage black armor, and violently clawed at the void. His five fingers sank deep into empty space.
【Spatial Spellwork · Near Yet Far】!
The several hundred meters that had separated them were forcibly overlapped by the pull of his terrifying mana. In that instant, the physical concept of “distance” was erased. Logaris’s figure did not travel along any path at all—he simply descended directly onto Maxim’s flank.
That utterly unnatural form of movement instantly caused Maxim’s prearranged defensive spell to miss its mark.
“A crude technique.”
Maxim let out a cold snort. She did not even turn her body. She merely curled her fingers slightly, and a 【Twelvefold Prism Barrier】 made entirely of pure arcane runes materialized out of thin air, perfectly intercepting the inevitable path of Logaris’s descending heavy punch.
BOOM—!
The heavy punch, wrapped in black flames of spatial destruction, slammed into the barrier. Nine of the twelve layers shattered instantly, and the ripples of surging mana swept wildly in all directions.
“I’m not done yet, old hag!”
Borrowing the rebound force, Logaris abruptly leaped backward. The ruined demon wings behind him shuddered violently, releasing countless invisible waves of frequency.
【Spellwork · Void Turbulence】!
In an instant, the spatial parameters within a thousand-meter radius began fluctuating wildly. Every environmental value started undergoing chaotic random changes measured in milliseconds. This extreme disorder was like dumping an entire bucket of ink into a perfectly precise divination crystal ball.
Maxim’s brow furrowed faintly. In an environment this chaotic, the burden on her 【Future Sight】 instantly skyrocketed, and even her mind felt a slight stab of pain.
“Got you.”
Logaris gave her no time to adjust. He abruptly tore both hands outward as if ripping apart a sheet of paper.
Hum! Hum! Hum!
Hundreds of black spatial wormholes opened around him in utterly random positions. Immediately after that, countless dark-red magic bullets compressed to the absolute limit poured out from them. They had no locked target, not even fixed trajectories. They simply carried out entirely random Brownian motion within this chaotic space.
“You think this level of interference is enough to blind the eyes of truth?”
Faced with the overwhelming random bombardment, Maxim finally displayed the terrifying pressure worthy of a legendary mage. She no longer tried to calculate the trajectory of every individual magic bullet. Instead, she chose a far more tyrannical response.
She raised both hands high. The originally pure white dome of space was violently torn open, and a dazzling silver river of light, so radiant that it was painful to behold, stretched across the heavens. It was the purest and most violent primordial arcane torrent.
“If I cannot see clearly, then I will erase all of it.”
Maxim’s voice was ethereal and cold, like the oracle of judgment itself.
“【Forbidden Spell · Twilight Overture】.”
As her finger fell, the silver river of light began to boil.
Countless colossal arcane meteors, each over a hundred meters in diameter, split away from the river. Burning with eerie dark-blue flames and trailing long streams of light behind them, they descended like an apocalyptic rainstorm, carrying out indiscriminate carpet bombardment over the entire area where Logaris stood.
These meteors were not physical stones, but highly compressed masses of solidified mana.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The first meteor slammed into the mercury-like ground. No broken stone flew outward—only rings of visible blue ripples spread madly in every direction. Within several kilometers, the space itself instantly underwent a violent mana sympathetic detonation, while the free-floating elements in the air were forcibly ignited, unleashing a shrill chain of explosions.
That was the most vicious aspect of 【Twilight Overture】—mana assimilation and resonance.
Any area caught within the blast would have all foreign mana forcibly assimilated into arcane energy and then detonated. For Logaris, whose entire body was flooded with high-density infernal mana, it was practically a tailor-made killing blow.
Faced with this overwhelming strike of destruction, even Logaris in his berserk state felt the threat of death.
His figure instantly became indistinct, wavering like a holographic projection disrupted by signal interference.
【Innate Ability · Void Phase】!
He shifted his body into the gap between reality and the void.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Countless dark-blue meteors pierced straight through his illusory afterimages and smashed violently into the mirror-like surface below, kicking up a blue sea of fire tens of thousands of feet high. The entire demiplane shook violently, as though it might collapse at any moment.
But Logaris had no intention of enduring the assault passively.
He locked onto Maxim high above with deadly focus. With a feral grin, he spread both arms wide. Behind him, dozens of intricate and precise spell formations appeared, and at the core of every single one pulsed a destructive fluctuation powerful enough to make even a legendary mage’s heart tremble.
“Let me show you the march of the ages!”
“【Multi-Cast · Aether Disintegration · Corona】!”
With a furious roar, dozens of blinding miniature suns rose into the void all at once.
The dazzling white radiance collided viciously in midair with the dark-blue meteor rain. Black-red infernal demonic fire, dark-blue aether sympathetic detonations, and ghastly pale disintegration light intertwined into a doomsday tableau capable of destroying heaven and earth.
RUMBLE—!!!
The terrifying shockwave swept away everything, blasting this space of truth into fragmented ruin. The scale of the destruction was so immense that it seemed as though even time itself had been blown into pieces in that very instant.
