Human Cannon
While Bell was busy Identify and Fill Gaps, Shanna naturally wasn't idle either.
The little girl strictly followed her Gege's instructions, helping Gege defend against the Lightning attacks. She controlled the ground outside the sphere of earth, Transfiguration.
The tentacles constantly resisted the incoming Lightning. Every time one tentacle collapsed, a new one would inevitably form.
It's unclear whether it's because Bell and Shanna are siblings or because they've been together since childhood, but Bell and Shanna's magical energy fluctuations are extremely similar.
The similarity between their magical energy fluctuations is Gundam 99%. Unless you are a wizard who is very familiar with them, you will never be able to tell the difference between their magical energy fluctuations.
Therefore, Bell didn't even need to do anything special; Shanna's magic could naturally pass through the defensive circle Bell had built, assisting Bell in his defense.
Seeing that the others also wanted to follow Shanna's example and assist in the defense, Bell quickly stopped them. He didn't want to expend a great deal of energy at this critical moment to filter out the magical fluctuations of these people and create special channels for their magical power.
Five minutes passed... ten minutes passed...
Bell was getting a little flustered.
"Shopkeeper Wang, how long will this Thunderclap attack last?"
Bell didn't even bother with the "brother" title anymore.
After such a long attack, there was no sign of it weakening; on the contrary, the density of Lightning was becoming increasingly dense.
Faced with the Lightning that fell like a torrential downpour, Bell's magic power was being depleted very quickly due to the high intensity of the spellcasting.
Bell's magic power is now less than half gone. Shanna, on the other hand, got tired of playing two minutes ago and settled down.
"I don't know either!"
Shopkeeper Wang said with a mournful face.
Having seen how Mana his newly acquainted "Brother Bell" was, Shopkeeper Wang had initially thought he might be able to escape this calamity.
But who the hell made this Thunderclap Talisman?! How can it last so long?!
"Each Talisman has different powers depending on the skill level of the maker and the amount of spiritual power infused into it. I don't remember whose Thunderclap Talisman I just randomly put into the box of beginner Talisman."
"..."
Bell was utterly disgusted by Manager Shopkeeper Wang's exploitative practices. However, there was no point in dwelling on it; it was best to focus on resolving the issue.
Have you ever heard of "Human Cannon"?
Bell's lips curled into a smile; he had come up with a good idea.
"What?"
Elena wondered if it was just her imagination, but she felt that her son's smile was a little... sly.
"Gege, what is Human Cannon?"
Shanna asked curiously as well.
"Hehe~! You'll find out soon enough."
With a smile, Bell kept everyone in suspense.
"Now, everyone get ready, stand firm and hold on! Human Cannon, Level One Ready!"
"Wait, Bell. What exactly is the Human Cannon?"
William pressed on, somewhat uneasy.
After being tricked by his own troublesome son so many times, William gets chills every time he sees that brat Bell smile at him.
However, Bell still didn't offer an explanation. After all, time was of the essence, and more importantly, explaining would be too complicated; it was much simpler and quicker for everyone to experience it for themselves.
Bell controlled the outermost layer of soil to Transfiguration into a massive cannon barrel. To prevent Lightning from damaging the barrel, he also used extra magic to make it a double-layered structure.
As the cannon barrel hardened, Bell poured all the remaining magic into the bottom of the barrel.
"Emission!"
Boom!
With a deafening roar, a strong sense of weightlessness washed over them. Even though they were mentally prepared, the group clung tightly to the protective shield, unable to move.
The Thousand Changes- changing sphere flew rapidly, braving the Lightning strikes, and finally crashed violently into the lightning net at the edge of the Thunderclap.
Thunderclap truly lived up to its reputation as a top-tier lightning-type spell. Even though it consumed nearly half of Bell's magic power, the resulting impact still failed to completely break through their defenses.
The silvery-white sphere was only halfway through its flight when it got stuck in the lightning net.
Fortunately, the true form of the Thousand Changes was liquid metal. After Bell deactivated the Thousand Changes Transfiguration, the family escaped safely thanks to the Protego Totalum they had set up and the Defensive Trinket they had acquired.
As the manager of the Treasure Pavilion, Shopkeeper Wang's defensive gear, while perhaps not as high-quality as the Bell family's, was certainly no less numerous. Moreover, he had been clinging to Bell's coattails, thus receiving Protego Totalum protection. Therefore, Shopkeeper Wang ultimately emerged unharmed.
The Earth Demon Han Dan, still looking as goofy as ever, rubbed his stomach, seemingly a little hungry.
As for Zhao Youde, who was the last one left...
"Ha~~"
Zhao Youde opened his mouth, and a wisp of white smoke drifted out.
Now, his hair stands on end, his clothes are tattered, his face is blackened, and he is covered in wounds, looking exactly like a laborer who has just escaped from a black coal mine.
Excluded from Protego Totalum, he didn't have many defensive items. The only Defense Jade Pendant he had, bought just in case, shattered after only a few seconds. Then he had no choice but to tough it out.
Seeing the others dressed neatly and cleanly, as if nothing had happened, Zhao Youde began to doubt his own existence.
So what did he come here for today?
Oh, right! He was there to be a guide for the foreign guests! But after the Bell family entered the Treasure Pavilion, he just stood by and watched the show.
As a result, Shopkeeper Wang, who carelessly put the top-level Talisman into the low-level Talisman, was fine, as was the little girl who tested the power of the Talisman, and Bell and his parents were also fine.
In short, both the buyer and seller were fine, but he, the bystander who was just watching the show, got into trouble!
"My Defense Jade Pendant! It cost me five Gold Yuan!"
Zhao Youde wanted to cry but had no tears.
"Now that I've survived, can we just pretend that whole thing about my secret stash of money never happened?"
Next, the Bell family, hosted by Shopkeeper Wang, entered the VIP lounge on the second floor.
To express his apology and gratitude, Shopkeeper Wang not only brought out his treasured tea to entertain the Bell family, but also promised that all of the Bell family's future purchases at the Treasure Pavilion would be 20% off!
Although his heart was bleeding, for the sake of the reputation of the Treasure Pavilion, Shopkeeper Wang gritted his teeth and made this promise.
Looking out the window at the still dense thunderstorm not far away, Bell took a leisurely sip of tea.
He was exhausted just now, and his body is completely empty, with no magic power left.
Actually, Bell wasn't too bothered by what had just happened. After all, her little sister was having so much fun.
Bell was happy as long as his sister was happy. So he originally didn't plan to pursue the matter further.
However, since Manager Shopkeeper Wang was so enthusiastic and offered a compensation plan, Bell wouldn't be so tactless as to refuse.
"Gege! Gege! These Talisman are so much fun! Shall we buy a lot to play with?"
Although Shanna, like her Gege, was exhausted from all her magic, her physical fatigue did not dampen the excitement in her heart.
Look!
