Chapter 242: B3: C32: Wizard, Cultivator, Harrowing Mist Isles, Crucifying Storm Tower
If it wasn’t for Zarian’s free evil +5 and the pressure of causality turning against him, he wouldn’t have brainstormed with Para to do something extra devious.
These factors had led to them stacking the effects of his incomplete gravity spell, Crucifying Storm Tower, Arcane Artillery Platform, Void Domain, and an extra surprise that the wizard was saving for the end to fuck over the monster wave.
Void Domain, a mythical spell, was a known factor for infusing the void with the environment, far or near. It could twist elemental magic and even enchanted effects. Paired with the mythical trait, Outer Planar Scourge, and all the other wizard-based buffs, the domain was powerful by itself.
Most wizards wouldn’t dream of using something like Void Domain as mere support for other spells. Granted, its aura cost was steep, so it seemed more like a special badass finisher move.
Zarian and Para thought differently when they became creative while under enough stress. Especially with how they wanted to apply the main wombo-combo spells coming from the Black Magic grimoire, which they hadn’t used before.
<Crucifying Storm Tower (Legendary): Turn a dead giant or an army of dead enemies into a corpse storm shaped as a tower expanding into the sky. Chains and nails of frost-lightning will lash out to capture and crucify enemies to the tower. This will inflict horrendous pain, heavy slowness, and life drain. More death grows the tower and its reach. Only one tower can be raised at a time. Scales with Wonder and Mysticism.>
<Arcane Artillery Platform (Legendary): Spell out an arcane platform of runes and condensed aura. Draw elemental forces into slots on your platform and shoot them like artillery rounds. The amount of slots you have depends on how much aura you pay on top of the extremely vast initial cost. The aura cost is high to maintain the platform. There’s a day-long cooldown once the platform dissipates. Scales with Willpower, Wonder, and Mysticism.>
“Give me CONQUEST!” Zarian shouted for extra dramatic effect.
That might’ve seemed silly and impractical, but the flow of causality was changing for the better. His odds improved as Zarian and Para leaned into the dramatics while doing badass wizard stuff.
