"Flight Spell" is a Tier 4 spell for Mages, and before level 4... Mages find it difficult to fly.
Mages have considered other unconventional methods of flight.
However, all these alternative methods essentially use spells not originally intended for flight to achieve the effect of flying.
And this creates a common drawback.
Mana consumption.
Magic Power consumption is an issue Mages can never avoid.
The Flight Spell itself is a spell with extremely low mana cost. It's difficult for any other spell to achieve effects like "carrying passengers," "flexible and simple control," "low mana cost," and "long duration."
Especially the duration.
Otherwise, if you fly for a while and it stops, you'll fall to your death from mid-air.
Most Mages require incantations.
Therefore, no matter how cleverly Mages try, it's difficult for them to fly before reaching Tier 4 and learning the Flight Spell.
But Lu Cang...
was the exception to the exception.
The first time he fought the Giant Snake, moving with Ice Cones gave Lu Cang the idea of flying with Ice Cones.
Later, evolving "Control" was also an attempt to improve flight maneuverability.
Crack!
"Shadow Bite"
"Stop!" Lu Cang commanded.
Completely pinned by the BOSS, the Dragon Rhino stopped with a swing.
Fighting while moving would actually be inconvenient for their side.
The Dragon Rhino lunged and missed.
The Defender rolled off from behind the Dragon Rhino, tumbling several times on the ground.
However, he was unharmed.
Boom!
The moment he stood up, a black shadow instantly charged!
"Get lost!"
Bang!
The black shadow completely enveloped Trand's entire body and passed through him. Trand retreated half a step.
Swish!
A faint emerald light descended upon him.
The wounds on his exposed armor were healing at a visible rate.
Hmm...
The healing efficiency seems quite high.
And the BOSS's attack, although leaving wounds on Trand, only seemed to inflict very superficial injuries.
Trand's physique is indeed not very fragile.
"Fast Recovery talent."
It looks like it's recovering quickly.
Lu Cang ascended into the sky, creating a distance of 300 meters from the BOSS.
Light gathered in Lu Cang's hand, and a massive cross appeared in his palm.
Clang!
Clang!
Boom--
"Elemental Protection (Tier 3) (LV: 2)"
The shield in Trand's hand had turned into an earth-dark shield.
His armor and his body were also covered in a layer of similarly colored, hazy mist.
Elemental defense.
And on the other side, Loth also cast "Protection Spell" on Trand.
A black storm swept by, but the gray radiance on Trand's body only dimmed slightly; he sustained no damage.
It seems he can hold out for a long time.
Moreover, the aggro is very stable; the BOSS has no intention of attacking Loth at all.
Maizer also shot several arrows, and streaks of light pierced the BOSS's body.
But the damage was clearly not very high.
Oh... so this is the output of a Level 2 Archer.
It was completely, as if it did nothing.
This was Lu Cang's first time seeing anyone other than himself fight.
In fact, he hadn't even seen Iz and the others fight.
Indeed, the damage was soft and weak.
Lu Cang raised his hand.
"Holy Light Cross (LV:185)--Evil Dispelling, Shadow Binding, Evil Slayer, Light Gathering, Eternal, Curse Purification, Filth Removal, Solidification, Ghost Slayer, Darkness Slayer, Tracking"
Holy Light Cross was a highly specialized magic.
It dealt almost no damage to Demonic Beasts it didn't have an advantage against.
But...
If it hit a target it could counter.
Lu Cang glanced at the cross in his hand, three "Holy Light Crosses" completely overlapping.
Then.
He threw it!
Whoosh!
The moment the Holy Light Cross was thrown, the [Wind-Chasing Shadow Beast] keenly sensed the danger!
It moved like a gale, its black shadow shifting in an instant.
However, it was useless!
The Holy Light Cross, at the last moment before piercing the ground, reversed its trajectory and swept directly towards the [Wind-Chasing Shadow Beast] like a throwing star--
Thwack!
Its body was instantly torn apart.
"Roar!"
A pained howl echoed from the wind!
Almost instantly, its body, which had been nearly invisible wind and black shadow, condensed into a physical form resembling a leopard.
And the Holy Light Cross had directly pierced its abdomen--
Boom!
The powerful impact continued, pinning the Wind-Chasing Shadow Beast to a nearby tree!
It was pinned, twitching and shaking frantically, black smoke rising from its body!
Its darkness was being purified.
And darkness was an integral part of its life.
In just five short seconds.
It stopped twitching, its body gradually dissipating like natural elements.
Lu Cang descended from the air.
"Captain..."
Lu Cang smiled, baring his teeth.
He looked completely invincible.
The last commission was to clear a monster horde.
It required clearing a Goblin settlement that had appeared in the wild...
Goblins, truly classic monsters.
Lu Cang remained cautious. On the Dragon Rhino carriage, protected by Defenders and Healers, he began bombarding them with magic from the maximum range.
"Earthfire Eruption" x15
"Emergent Charge Pillar" x18
"Sunken Shadow Swamp" x5
"Silent Wind Swarm" x12
"Wind Blast"
He had no intention of entering the settlement at all, merely casting magic from afar...
The Shadow Swamp was scoured, Wind Blasts cleared away all debris, Constant Lamps illuminated the area, and Wind Swarms detected invisibility.
Within a five-hundred-meter radius, Lu Cang had blasted everything into an open expanse.
Countless Ice Shuttles rained down, Fire Pillars shot into the sky, lightning flashed, and fierce winds continuously blasted in all directions. Forget Goblins; not even a fallen leaf could get close.
One could only see the Goblin settlement erupting in a sky full of brilliant Elemental energy.
Those Goblins never even saw Lu Cang's face before being annihilated by the overwhelming firepower.
Beside him, Loth's lips twitched slightly.
"Hey..."
"Is your Magic Power infinite?"
"Just now, you only blew apart one side of the forest when killing the [Wind-Chasing Shadow Beast]."
"And now you're obliterating a Goblin settlement."
"This magic has been continuously blasting for five minutes straight."
"Captain... that should be enough, right?"
However, Lu Cang looked towards the distant settlement and gently shook his head.
"No, I'll clear for a bit longer."
"I heard Goblins are generally cunning and dangerous, so safety first."
Everyone fell silent.
They could all see Lu Cang's cautious personality, but... wasn't this being overly cautious?!
This was just a group of Goblins! The strongest among them was only a Tier 3 Goblin Priest!
What Goblin could survive your barrage of indiscriminate blasting?
But Lu Cang was the captain, after all.
If he didn't want to stop, they couldn't make him.
Finally... after a full fifteen minutes of saturation bombing, the magic finally ceased.
And the Goblin settlement in the distance, at a glance, was nothing but scorched earth and flying ash.
It felt like the Captain had some personal grudge against Goblins...
He hadn't even blasted that fiercely against the previous BOSS.
