Super Magician: The Magic Network Collapsed Again at the Start

Chapter 102 Elemental Calamity
Four people and a horse appeared out of thin air at the entrance of the villa.

"Ah—" Several exclamations came from the air.

Anser turned his head and saw Tina standing not far away with a group of servants, carrying food boxes in her hands.

Facing his gaze, Tina lowered her head slightly, her fingers gripping the hem of her clothes tightly: "Mr. Anser, dinner is ready."

"Yes, thank you, Miss Tina," Anser said casually, his mind still preoccupied with the twisted tree-man.

Blatt knew Anser all too well; he could tell from his tone that Anser was distracted, so he quickly went to greet him: "Leave it to us."

"Well... alright." Tina looked at Anser, and seeing that he wasn't paying attention to this, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Blatt and the others took the food box, watched Tina and the others leave, and then carried the food box into the villa.

"You guys eat, I'll go back to my room and do some research." Anser dismounted and hurried upstairs.

Finn grunted, sniffed, opened the food box, and his eyes lit up when he saw the two-foot-long grilled fish.

Blatt stared thoughtfully at Anser's retreating figure. The experience he had just had felt somewhat surreal, and combined with the word "base," it made him feel a sense of anticipation.

Back in the luxurious master bedroom, Anser plopped down on the carpet and immersed himself in the battle log.

'The Cursed Treant, Challenge Level 9...'

This level of treant is equivalent to a high-level professional. Their strength and physique are both above 20 points. They are not afraid of blunt force or piercing. They can also bring trees to life as treants, making them very difficult to deal with.

However, it is not without its weaknesses. For example, it is afraid of fire, cannot fly, has slow reaction time, and its speed is about the same as that of an ordinary person.

'Land combat is definitely out of the question. Flying through the air and using ranged super magic to throw fireballs should work, but we need to be wary of its wood-smashing spikes and stone-throwing attacks.'

The Great Reader probably doesn't know what's going on inside. Anser didn't detect any residual magic from others in the Scepter of Protection, so it's likely that no one has touched it for many years.

'Upgrade your equipment first, then go in and explore.'

Anser took out two small boxes from his pocket; he hadn't put them in his dragon-skin bag earlier because there were so many people around.

Moreover, the dragon skin pocket doesn't have much space left; you can only stuff a few small items in it at most.

Upon opening the box, two gem-like elemental essences were revealed: one yellowish-brown and the other deep blue.

He grabbed two elemental essences and tossed them at the floating elemental orbs.

The magic orb instantly absorbed the two elemental essences into its interior, humming continuously. The outer mithril sphere contracted and expanded as if breathing, its magical light flashing incessantly.

'Please don't let it break.'

This was the first time he had ever encountered such a magical item that could be assembled and upgraded.

A few minutes later, the orb finally calmed down, revealing four elemental essences of different colors suspended inside. They rotated and danced rhythmically, creating a dazzling interplay of light and shadow.

Anser checked its attributes again; its grade had been upgraded to Rare, and it had gained three new traits.

"Earth": You are not affected by difficult terrain such as mud or rocky ground.

When casting super spells using the orb, gain adaptive resistance for a period of time. Each cast extends the duration, but the effect does not stack.

Adaptive Resistance: Gain resistance corresponding to the type of damage before an enemy's attack arrives. Only one type of resistance can be gained at a time.

"Water": Water-related spells are cast faster and are colder.

When casting a super spell using the orb, you can use elemental resonance to unleash a burst of water emanating from you, with a radius of 15 feet (4.5 meters).

区域内的每个生物都会受到2d6（2-12）寒冷伤害，同时进行一次力量豁免，豁免失败者被你推离15尺并倒地。

"Elemental Calamity": Your super spells will always apply the Elemental Calamity effect to enemies.

The target must pass a Constitution saving throw or lose resistance to the type of damage corresponding to that supernatural spell for 6-30 seconds, limited to: acid, cold, fire, lightning, and thunder.

"As expected of a rare and precious arcane artifact, the Dragon Vault really has some good stuff. I wonder which unlucky guy sent it there." Anser grinned from ear to ear.

Fire element increases damage, air element allows flight, water element can knock back enemies, and earth element provides inherent resistance; each is very useful.

The strongest is "Elemental Calamity," which can break through the enemy's elemental resistance!

Although a physical fitness test is required and the test is short-lived, it is perfectly adequate from a practical standpoint.

In this way, even when facing monsters with stacked resistances, one's spells will still be powerful enough to deal damage.

'It's a pity it only works on super magic spells, at most it can unleash a burst of power.' He was still somewhat unsatisfied. Having dealt with the elemental orbs, he stood up, grabbed the Staff of Protection, and decided to go back to the Space Paradise to take another look.

He activated the scepter, and the traction force descended. He relaxed his body, and in a flash, he found himself in the plaza.

'Here again.' He decisively spread his wings and quickly flew upwards.

In theory, as the master, he could control the teleportation landing point, but since he had just acquired it, he wasn't very skilled at it.

Just seconds after he took off, a deafening roar echoed across the island.

At the entrance of the mage tower, a gigantic treant stood up and charged towards Anser's direction with overwhelming force.

Anser flapped its wings, keeping its altitude above two hundred meters.

The tree-man threw a few stones and launched a few splintering logs, but they couldn't reach him. He was so angry that he stomped his feet, leaving pits in the stone square.

Anser felt a pang of heartache; this was clearly his own territory.

However, he did not rush to deal with the tree people, but instead looked down at this world from his high vantage point.

The island is not large, about four or five kilometers in diameter, with flat terrain and wildly growing trees everywhere.

There is a small river on the island that meanders through most of the island, with a small lake at one end and the sea at the other.

The sun was not visible overhead, only a vast expanse of blue sky. The horizon of the sea was obscured by a thin mist, hazy and indistinct, its distance unknown.

The scene appears harmonious at first glance, but closer inspection reveals that the area beneath the trees is littered with broken walls and countless bones, numbering at least several thousand.

The only relatively intact buildings are the Black Stone Wharf and a Mage Tower.

Moreover, there were no animals present!
There were no fish, shrimp, birds, or beasts to be seen, only some insects and similar creatures.

'This place must have been the site of a great war, which destroyed everything. What we see here has naturally recovered over the long years,' Anser deduced.

He came to the top of the mage tower, where perhaps all the secrets were hidden.

The black tower resembles a dodecagonal iron pillar, with the same thickness from top to bottom. It has twelve floors and occupies several thousand square meters. Including the base, which is higher than the square, its total height may be one hundred meters.

He wanted to go inside and take a look, but the outer tower was like black metal, unusually smooth, with no windows or doors, only the large door at the bottom for entry and exit.

However, the tree spirit remained guarding the area, never leaving its side, clearly showing no intention of moving aside.

"Roar--"

Perhaps sensing Anser's intentions, the treant spoke up again to intimidate.

Anser turned to look at it and chuckled, "Others can't do anything to you, but I'm different!"

The effective range of the Wood Splitter is fifty or sixty meters, which is longer than the basic range of the Fireball spell. It is enough to deal with ordinary archers or mages, but he... is a master of super magic!

He flew dozens of meters away from the tower and lured the tree-man away to avoid accidentally damaging the tower.

Then it descended, gradually approaching the tree-man, and finally hovered at a height of 150 to 160 meters.

Seeing this, the tree man became even more agitated.

Anser smiled faintly, and a surge of magical power erupted from him. The elemental orb trembled and lit up with rings of elemental light.

""

"Super Magic: Ranged Spell" + "Fireball"!
The deep incantation, after countless years, once again resounded throughout this space.

The new feat allows Anther to cast third-circle spells even while airborne.

He flicked his finger, and a bright flash shot out from his fingertip, instantly landing on the tree-man's head.

The tree-man was cursed, leaving it with little intelligence, but its instincts remained. It desperately tried to dodge, but its reaction and speed were indeed too slow.

The fireball grazed the withered tree crown and suddenly erupted.

"boom--"

Flames rose, instantly forming a huge red and yellow fireball, which ignited the tree-man and turned it into a giant torch.

He suddenly collapsed to the ground with a thud, rolling frantically in an attempt to extinguish the flames on his body.
