Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong Chapter 2688 1477: Surprise and Composure (Part 2)
Sudden blasts of thunderous noise ripped through the foe's camp, unleashing endless surges of deadly energy blasts.
Enormous fireballs rocketed upward, colossal waves crashed like a raging tidal flood, a savage wind twister screamed across the sky, and a bunch of massive meteors trailed blazing flames as they slammed right into the enemy's ranks.
Just like that, the huge shadowy expanse flipped to daylight brightness in a flash, overflowing with countless magical glows in every direction.
Obviously, the ones Leo Ray triggered were massive area-of-effect magic scrolls.
Before this point, with our troops packed so close and the combat zone so confined, Leo Ray hardly ever got to unleash scrolls with such huge coverage.
Yet in this scenario, Leo Ray clearly threw all caution aside.
That wasn't the finish; after hurling away the initial round of triggered magic scrolls, Leo Ray yanked out the next two rounds and set them off fast, plunging the enemy's tidy lineup into total disarray. Nonstop magical detonations boomed across the skies and land, rattling the whole realm.
All of it unfolded in a split second, and witnessing Leo Ray unleash those ruinous tools with the casual ease of chopping veggies, our specialists froze in shock—even old Gary, who couldn't even blink, gaped wide with disbelief at what he saw.
Out of everyone, the pink hooded cape wearer stood especially stunned.
It's well-known that, compared to solo or small-group strikes, these vast-range attack scrolls demand way more strength than equivalent-level ones, typically calling for joint work from several or even loads of matching-rank and element mages to seal them successfully.
During the effort, a tiny mistake from one mage ruins it all; the challenge level speaks for itself. Plus, the duration involved dwarfs that of standard attack scrolls.
On top of that, the empty scrolls chosen for sealing these broad-area attack scrolls must be premium grade; lesser ones couldn't withstand the massive mana load.
As a result, even among the elite first-class powers of the Ten Thousand Clans, supplies of these magic scrolls stay pretty scarce, rarely deployed casually—not just from the time drain and sealing demands, but since the blank scrolls come in tiny yearly batches due to scarce resources.
So, with Leo Ray firing off dozens of them straight up, the pink hooded cape wearer's shock was plain to see; they themselves lacked these Tier 6 Attack Scrolls!
As Leo Ray gestured forward, the brilliant magical lights erupted all over; the pink hooded cape wearer, Frank, old Gary, and Youyou, though reeling inside from surprise, all displayed obvious delight.
Across from Leo Ray, slammed by this abrupt brutal barrage, the Witch Demon Leader and the rest of the demons got totally blindsided, their mocking laughs cutting off sharp.
They never dreamed the lowly human speck would command so many Tier 6 wide-range attack scrolls!
Blindsided like that, the Witch Demon Leader managed only a roar to rush the Absolute Defense Barrier into place, but Leo Ray's onslaught proved overwhelmingly savage, blanketing almost the full Death Spirit Army Formation.
The shock threw the demons into desperate scramble for life, too drained to raise the Absolute Defense Barrier, their repeated shots fizzling out, forcing them to bolt around like ants in boiling oil.
Right then, the demons came off like utter buffoons, barely keeping it together.
In the fight's core, Leo Ray kept his cool expression while rapidly burning through his final stock.
While these scrolls offered both broad sweep and crushing power, ranking as prime destructive assets, his own supply topped out at just a handful of dozens, every one boosted from Tier 5 Attack Scrolls—seeing as third-class outfits stocked zero Tier 6 Scrolls.
At the start, he pondered building fresh Tier 6 Scrolls from scratch; pulling it off would skyrocket our overall might.
Even with Tier 6 Blank Scroll crafting supplies being insanely hard to find, tapping the Mansion's breakdown ability made sourcing them a breeze.
Still, despite having every bit needed for Tier 6 Blank Scrolls, things jammed up at the following phase, much like Sixth-order Equipment, missing the arcane methods to forge Tier 6 Blank Scrolls.
Those arcane skills stay exclusive to top-tier forces, guarded from everyone else. Thus, producing brand-new Tier 6 Scrolls got paused for the moment.
Thankfully, Leo Ray built out a full assembly line for Tier 5 Magic Scrolls, not as smooth as whipping up new Tier 6 ones, yet upgrading via that path delivers a dependable route to snag Tier 6 Scrolls.
At Leo Ray's side, though floored with amazement, spotting the scrolls thinning out in his grip, the pink hooded cape wearer settled quickly.
True, this Human Race Emperor's tactics prove downright remarkable; unleashing these scores of Tier 6 Scrolls could shatter several Tier 4 Armies. But facing a Tier 5 Army, where troops can each summon Energy Barriers to ramp up magic defense hugely.
Lacking multiples more scrolls, they'd take at worst 30%, maybe 40% losses in ranks; the win's balance hardly tips!
Plainly, even slashing enemy numbers by 40%, snuffing out our tiny crew stays a cinch! What's more, post such a pounding, their retaliation will ramp up to deadlier heights!
Deeply anxious within, old Gary and the team grasped this full well, squeezing their weapons fiercely, set to battle till the end.
As predicted, the moment Leo Ray unleashed every broad-area magic scroll, the battlefield's once-flaring magical glows dulled, and the Witch Demon Leader's furious bellow resounded: "Grind the Emperor of the Human Race and others to dust!"
The Witch Demon Leader's command barely landed when over a hundred formidable Tier 6 Dead Spirits burst ahead, cloaked in immense slaughter aura, swiftly lunging at Leo Ray's squad from every angle!
Through the Witch Demon Leader's thundering wrath, the pink hooded cape's frantic tone broke in: "Human kid, I admit you have some skill, but it's far from enough!"
At those words, as the pink hooded cape wearer mulled bolting away with Leo Ray, his steady tone floated over: "No hurry, the real show is just beginning."
With that, Leo Ray dug out a stack of scrolls from his chest, igniting them all in near unison.
Right away, shining arrays wrapped around Leo Ray's crew, forms radiating the same overwhelming Tier 6 force materialized. Before the group could even stir, they squared off against the onrushing Tier 6 Dead Spirits; hundreds strong.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Energy collision roars exploded near us, violent winds whipping up wildly. The view of over a hundred Tier 6 powerhouses clashing proved downright breathtaking.
"There are actually over a hundred Tier 6 Summon Scrolls? Human kid, you truly hide your prowess well!"
The pink hooded cape wearer stared wide-eyed from under the hood, while Frank and the rest gawked in awe, since even mid-level powers couldn't pull together so many Tier 6 Summon Scrolls!
But before the shock wore off, waves of additional dead spirits swarmed in, hitting hard.
"Human kid, I admit you have more than just some skill, but they still hold absolute advantage!"
The pink hooded cape wearer's forehead wrinkled, shooting another urgent glance at Leo Ray: "Unless we have an entire army, let's escape swiftly while the golem puppets buy time!"
"Your Excellency, do not fret, how can you be so sure I have no army?"
Leo Ray flashed a relaxed smile, summoning another mound of magic scrolls.
