I Created Scientific Magic

Chapter 8: This Is The Last Spell Of My Life!

Translator: Lonelytree

Such a character was only a Mage Hunter?

And he was dispatched to capture a weak student like him?!

Lin En found it hard to believe. However, reality was not a battle arena. It would not match you with an opponent of equal strength. There was no meaning in begging for mercy or admitting defeat. There was only a life-and-death battle!

[Ice Blade]

Lin En raised his left hand and aimed at Blaney. He was getting more and more familiar with the use of Condensation. In an instant, another ice blade appeared in the air.

However, when his spiritual power touched the atmosphere, the already scarce amount of hydrogen atoms had already been exhausted. The ice blades created could not pose a sufficient threat to the enemy at all.

Lin En was very clear about this, but there was nothing he could do to change it. A strong desire surged in his heart.

He needed more hydrogen and oxygen…

The moment this thought popped up in his mind, he felt as if his brain had been hit hard by someone. It was as if countless silver needles had pierced into his brain. Then, the mana in his body was rapidly consumed and transformed into a large amount of hydrogen and oxygen elements.

At the same time, a strange rune was deeply imprinted in his mind.

First-circle Superior Spell-[Group Ice Blades]

In just a second, several sharp ice blades appeared in front of him and scattered like a rain of arrows!

Lin En’s sudden outburst was beyond Blaney’s expectations. In a hurry, his sword turned from offense to defense. Even though his reaction was extremely fast, a [Ice Blade] still passed through the sword’s defense and pierced into his abdomen.

Blaney immediately felt a bone-piercing cold, and crystal-clear ice crystals quickly spread up from his abdomen.

Blaney, who was very familiar with the strange magic, did not dare to be negligent. He held the ice blade in his right hand and pulled it out with all his might!

Due to the special structure of the [Ice Blade], the barbs were firmly embedded into the flesh. When he forcefully pulled it out, red blood immediately gushed out.

The intense pain made Blaney tremble. The wound on his abdomen was already a bloody mess. What was even more dangerous was that the cold was still spreading rapidly. In an instant, he lost feelings around his wound.

However, Blaney’s ruthlessness was beyond Lin En’s expectations. After realizing that the wound on his abdomen would affect the rest of the battle, he grabbed the burning cabinet handle and pressed it down on his abdomen!

“Ahhhhh!” Blazing flames intertwined with the mangled flesh and blood, and Blaney’s veins bulged as he let out a furious roar.

Smoke rose from the point of contact, and the flesh was almost half-cooked. No blood flowed out, and the bone-piercing chill disappeared with the roasting of the flames.

This horrifying scene made Lin En feel a chill down his spine. Whether it was Blaney mercilessly using his companion’s corpse as a shield or using the Flame Brand to stop the bleeding, it made him understand that this was definitely not an easy character to deal with!

While Blaney was distracted, Lin En did not hesitate to break open the door and escape. Without the short sword protecting him, he had no chance of winning in the narrow space.

Blaney looked at Andre’s burnt body, his right hand holding his sword tightly as he chased after Lin En.

..

In the evening, in the slums outside Nordland, two figures were chasing each other through the narrow and dilapidated streets.

At this moment, the sky was getting darker and darker. One after another,[Ice Blades] whizzed past and hit the ground and walls without any order.

Every time he cast a spell, there would be a sharp pain in his brain, but at this moment, he could not care less. Once he stopped casting, the other party would pounce forward and pierce his head with a sword!

In contrast, Blaney, who was chasing behind him, seemed to be at ease. His sharp eyes caught the ice blades that were flying towards him, and he would dodge them from time to time, maintaining a distance between them.

Blaney was very careful. After all, this mage apprentice’s cunningness was not to be underestimated. Whether it was the misleading notes in the room, the sudden explosion of ice blades and fireball spells, or the strange spell that killed Andre, it all left a deep impression on him.

Therefore, even though the opponent looked exhausted, Blaney did not dare to attack rashly. He was like the most patient hunter, slowly consuming Lin En’s energy bit by bit until his prey fell and died!

As they chased and fled, the two of them were getting further and further away from the Urban area. An unpleasant stench filled the surroundings. Only then did Blaney realize that Lin En had fled to the abandoned Lower City District.

The entire Nordland territory was high in the north and low in the south. The Main City was built on the bank of the Yin River in the north.

More than ten years ago, Duke Nordland, who had returned from the Holy City, was dissatisfied with the messy and smelly appearance of the Main City. He ordered the craftsmen to dig a small canal to discharge all the human-made waste in the main city to the lower reaches of the Yin River.

This made it difficult for the poor people who lived in the Lower City District and relied on the river to get water.

However, Duke Nordland did not care about the lives of these commoners. As time passed, the entire Lower City District became deserted, and only a few scavengers chose to stay in this place.

Blaney was worried that there were other apprentices hiding there. Just as he was determined to end the battle quickly, the fleeing Lin En suddenly stopped in a random alley.

‘The concentration should be enough…’

Lin En confirmed it one last time, and the strange runes in his mind were instantly activated. A total of seven [Ice Blades] appeared out of thin air, shining under the afterglow of the setting sun.

The side effects of forcefully converting a large amount of mana into hydrogen and oxygen were getting more and more serious.

His mana had been squeezed to the limit. This was his last spell!

In the next moment, the ice blades automatically split into two groups and shot out without any pattern, sealing off all of Blaney’s escape routes.

Blaney’s expression became serious as he stared at the man.

Even he could not completely block such a large number of them…

Fortunately, these ice blades seemed to have lost their aim. Most of them only brushed past his side, and only three were aimed at him…

The final attempt of a trapped beast?

A mocking expression appeared on Blaney’s face. In the previous chase, he had discovered that when Lin En cast his spells, it wasn’t something that was created out of nothing. At the very least, there was a huge consumption of Lin En’s mana.

It was obvious that the other party was reaching his limit.

The corner of Blaney’s mouth curled up slightly. He slashed his sword horizontally and accurately at the incoming [Ice Blades], but he didn’t notice a red ball flying toward him.

The blade and the ball clashed, creating dazzling sparks.

The strange and different vibration caused Blaney to be stunned for a moment. Then, he realized that he had hit a piece of flint…
