On how PhDs become human evil

With this single sword strike, a gaping wound was torn open in the body of the filthy immortal, and disgusting green blood gushed out from the wound.

"Ughhhhhh!" The filthy fairy screamed in agony.

As she screamed, the entire 59th floor erupted into chaos, with countless new types of monsters bursting out from every corner, piles of green flesh that looked utterly repulsive.

As if to protect the filthy fairy spirit, these green worms launched a fierce attack on Bai Jie as soon as they emerged!

However, they were destined not to reach Bai Jie, because there was an absolute defensive line in front of them that was impossible to break through!

"Doctor, I will protect you!"

Amiya unleashed a surge of abyssal magical energy, with black energy lines extending into the void behind her, forming a diamond-shaped halo resembling a doorway. The next moment, beams of destructive light poured down like rain, engulfing the entire area in front of her!

Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!

The rain of destruction fell upon the army of green worms, causing a series of explosive booms and deafening sounds, just like bombs exploding. The intense light seemed to burn even one's eyes.

Although she's often called a donkey, Amiya's strength as a caster is definitely top-tier in Rhodes Island, and she can even rival Talulah, who is practically a mobile scourge, for a while.

Upon seeing this, Ifrit, who was also a warlock, was the first to lose control. The raging flames transformed into dozens of fire dragons, which ran rampant throughout the 59th floor. The 59th floor, which was originally a lush forest, was instantly transformed into a sea of ​​hellfire!

"Apple Pie—!"

Wings of light unfurl, angels unleash divine punishment, and the barrage of judgments heralds the arrival of salvation!

"Awoooo ...

The silver wolf howled wildly to the sky, devouring everything that came its way as if it wanted to devour the earth.

"Crack-!"

A colossal wave suddenly descended, and the deep-sea hunter brandished his greatsword. The resulting tsunami extinguished the sea of ​​fire, but also claimed the lives of countless monsters.

……

What was a situation that even first-level adventurers found extremely difficult to handle turned out to be so utterly vulnerable in the face of Rhodes Island. It was a scene of utter defeat, with Finn and the others not even having a chance to make a move.

"Crack!"

A snapping sound rang out as the silver-gray blade and Hoshiguma's shield simultaneously severed the tainted fairy's arm, green blood spurting into the sky.

However, at that moment—

【Come on, fire!】

A deep voice suddenly came from the mouth of the filthy fairy.

"It's chanting!?" Everyone was shocked.

Monsters that live by their ferocious destructive impulses and instincts can never chant spells. The rationality and wisdom required for magic belong to humans, not to monsters.

[Roar! Roar! Flame vortex! Crimson lotus cliffs! Roaring karmic fire! With the power of a sudden strong wind, seal off the world! Burning sky! Burning earth! Burning ocean! Burning springs! Burning mountains! Burning life! Turn everything to scorched earth! Fire the horns of anger and sighs! Pay the price with the life of my beloved hero!]

The incredibly fast chanting speed left everyone with no time to react, and even Riveria didn't have time to cast a defensive spell.

[In the name of the agent, I was given the name Salamander, the incarnation of fire, the Queen (King) of fire—]

An ominous song and a melodious incantation wove together—the scale of the enemy's chant made even the eyes of the sorcerers Riveria and Lefia waver.

An extremely long lyric poem.

The length of the chant was unbelievably large, yet the speed of the chanting was terrifying, surpassing even that of Riveria.

The immense magical power that non-humans could possess was to be poured into the artillery magic, which surpassed human intelligence, at an overwhelming speed.

The person the filthy fairy spirit was targeting was—Bai Jie!

[Firestorm]!

In that instant, the world was dyed fiery red.

"Bang—!"

With a violent explosion, a terrifying burst of flames erupted from the magic circle in front of the filthy fairy, transforming into a red storm that swept outwards with astonishing heat.

The fiery red, high-temperature storm almost became a tornado, reaching the high ceiling of the cavern and shaking outwards in all directions like a stellar explosion.

The unimaginable heat, amplified by the expanding red storm, surged like a heatwave onto the Loki Familia's first-tier adventurers, leaving them all standing frozen in place, utterly bewildered.

Immediately, a violent firestorm, like the end of the world, swept in.

—That's not something any heavily armored operator could stop.

However, besides the heavy-armored operators, Bai Jie also has a reliable comrade by his side!

"Nightingale! Activate your Sanctuary and Spell Shield!"

"Yes, Doctor."

The Nightingale, who had been silent since she appeared, raised her staff with the metal cage hanging on it. In an instant, a holy barrier radiating a holy light rapidly expanded like a balloon, and at the same time, a faint golden light appeared on everyone.

Rhodes Island's medical team has two aces, Shining and Nightingale.

Shining specializes in physical defense; as long as she's around, even the Bone Shatterer's cannon fire in her enraged state won't be able to harm any operator.

Nightingale, on the other hand, specializes in magic defense. With her around, SilverAsh and Hoshiguma can even withstand attacks from Frostnova and Talulah.

And here we must also mention someone, namely the Radiant Knight Nearl, who is known as the Shield of Rhodes Island!

"Holy Light, please protect me and my comrades!"

The warhammer in Nearl's hand shone with holy light, which, together with Nightingale's Sanctuary, enveloped everyone present.

And in the next instant, a firestorm descended!

boom----------------------------!!!!!

The world seemed to fall silent at this moment. After a brief clash between the firestorm and the sacred realm, the world suddenly became still, followed by an explosion of incredibly intense light.

P.S.: Update

P.S.: To be honest, I currently have White-faced Pigeon, Hemlock, Warfarin, Nightingale, Nearl, and Saria. They're practically invincible!

Section 21. A Lament from Natural Disasters

The raging fire destroyed everything, leaving only ashes on the wildfire-ravaged ground. Monsters, magic stones, and even the vast forest behind them all vanished without a trace, leaving only scorched earth.

With the female figure at the center of the space as the dividing line, the floor becomes another world.

If we compare it to the power levels of Orario, then even Riveria, Orario's strongest mage, could not unleash such powerful magic.

Is it really true that it is a celestial being? Even after falling, it remains so powerful, or is it precisely because it has fallen that it is so powerful? Is it true that it becomes three times stronger after turning evil?

"call--!"

Suddenly, a turbulent green wind swept through the space, and the flames that covered the entire floor instantly began to spin rapidly along the direction of the wind, eventually transforming into a towering fiery tornado that, like a knight on horseback wielding a lance, pierced through the body of the filthy fairy in the blink of an eye!

“WRRRRYYYYYYYY!” The filthy fairy let out a sharp scream, and obvious pain spread through its voice.

Clutching the spot on her chest where the fiery tornado had pierced her, the Filthy Fairy looked ahead. She didn't understand why there was still an attack; those guys should have been wiped out by her firestorm!

The next moment, a figure darted out, followed by an incomparably powerful True Silver Slash that descended upon her. This strike, powerful enough to split mountains and cleave seas, immediately cleaved a huge gash in her body.

It's silver-gray!

"Looks like you're quite surprised that we're still alive." With an air of utter indifference, Bai Jie walked out behind a group of operators. "Sorry, we have some of the most reliable doctors in the world here. Your magic didn't cause the slightest damage, you scoundrel."

Just as Bai Jie said, the earth-shattering firestorm had no effect on the group at all, and the reason for this was naturally the presence of Nightingale and Nearl.

First is Nightingale's Sanctuary. Any magical attack that comes into contact with the Sanctuary becomes extremely inactive, or even disappears without a trace, making it an absolutely impenetrable barrier.

Of course, relying solely on the Holy Domain might not be enough to withstand all the damage, so Bai Jie also had Nightingale cast magical shields on everyone, so that even if there was some extra damage, it wouldn't affect them.

Finally, there's Nearl's group healing, which can provide immediate recovery even if your shield is accidentally breached.

In conclusion, with its impeccable triple defense, the fairy's firestorm was completely blocked.

"WWWRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

Because of this fact, the filthy fairy's mentality seemed to collapse directly, and terrifying magic erupted along with her scream.

[Growl, ground!]

Come, come, come, Earth's crust, Black Iron Treasure (Light), Star Hammer, by the covenant of creation, I command you to reverse, burn the sky, shatter the earth, build bridges, unite heaven and earth (as one), and descend the Sky Axe of Destruction—

[By order of the agent, I am given the name of the gnome, the embodiment of the earth, the queen (king) of the earth.]

Meteor Shower.

The filthy fairy chanted magic once more, and a pitch-black magic circle took shape amidst the surging storm of magical power. Meteors that would destroy the earth rained down from the magic circle like a torrential downpour.

This is just as terrifying as the previous Flame Storm, but as mentioned before, no matter what kind of magic it is, none of it will work before Nightingale's Sanctuary!

The radiant holy domain opened once more. This time, Bai Jie didn't even have Nightingale activate her spell shield, nor did he ask Nearl to perform group healing.

"——————————"

The meteor shower relentlessly bombarded the surface of the sacred domain, yet it failed to even cause a ripple. The dark meteorites melted upon contact with the sacred domain as if they were ice blocks scorched by flames, ultimately dissipating into primal magic.

Seeing her magic so easily neutralized once again, the tainted fairy utterly broke down, and it was at this moment that Bai Jie gave the order—

"Skadi, SilverAsh, let's go!"

Taking advantage of your weakness and striking while you're down is the best way to gain the upper hand.

Upon receiving the order, an icy blue aura burst forth from SilverAsh's body, instantly lowering the temperature of the entire floor to below zero. Snowflakes began to fall in the underground city, and amidst this icy landscape, the Snowfield Overlord, with an arrogant smile, swung his sword.

—True Silver Slash!!!

"Sizzle——————————!!!"

The space was cleaved in an instant, and a large amount of lethal blood gushed from the upper body of the filthy immortal.

At that very moment, the sky and earth suddenly darkened, and the strongest level of storm inexplicably raged between the buildings, while the ground was submerged by a vast ocean that appeared out of nowhere.

In this boundless ocean, the hunter from the deep sea held a sword that was far too large for her to handle with one hand. With a gentle twitch, endless ocean currents converged on the blade, and an indescribable mysterious aura instantly dominated the entire area. Songs beyond human comprehension rose up in everyone's ears like a tidal wave.

—A tragic song of the surging tide!

"Compared to what I've faced in the past, you're still far inferior, though it's much better than facing humanity as an adversary. —Fall down."

Skadi swung her greatsword, unleashing a devastating wave that could destroy everything, which surged toward the Filthy Fairy and then, like a steamroller crushing a carton of milk, pulverized the Filthy Fairy's entire body!
