I Created Scientific Magic - Chapter 88

Chapter 88: Chapter 78: The Path of Ice

Considering that his opponent was a three-ring mage, Luo’er went all out, with no intention of holding back.

Philip and the others also admired that Luo’er’s timing of casting the spell was very clever. By using a zero-ring spell as a cover, he could undoubtedly catch the opponent off guard.

Of course, everyone present didn’t believe this spell could actually harm a three-ring wizard!

Because all it would take was a simple two-ring spell like the “Mage Shield,” or even a more advanced “Magic Barrier,” to easily avoid the “High-temperature Steaming Kill”…

However, Lynn didn’t know either of these spells!

In fact, “Frost Curtain” was the only defensive spell he had mastered, which was useless in the face of such a wide-ranging assault.

The scorching and highly corrosive steam had already surrounded Lynn from all sides.

All elements used in casting were essentially magic mimicry, and with his current strength, he was simply incapable of reversing control to take command.

Facing such a crisis, Lynn had no choice but to use the spell he had recently mastered—the “Liquid Nitrogen – Frost Domain”!

Crack…

There was a faint thud.

In an instant, the toxic steam that was about to touch the surface of his skin froze in the terrifying low temperatures, and bizarrely, yellow-green snowflakes began to fall from the sky on a torrid summer day!

Lynn took steps forward, while the startling low temperature spread even faster in front of him…

“Is it the ‘Frost Domain’?” Luo’er’s expression grew somber, but in any case, he had finally forced his opponent to use three-ring magic.

“Multiple Flame Burst Skill”

Luo’er raised his hand once more, with the second ring on his finger lighting up, preparing to use the blast from the violent explosion and the scorching high temperature to temporarily slow the spread of the domain!

Five brutal fireballs materialized out of the void, shooting towards the spreading mist.

However, the reality was not as Luo’er had expected. As the fireballs plunged into the mist, they disappeared without a trace before they could explode…

No, not disappeared—his magic power had been frozen!

Luo’er, in a panic, began to back away step by step, casting all the one- and two-ring spells he knew.

“Acidic Liquid Spray,” “Corrosion Skill,” “Flame Touch,” “Lesser Magic Protection”…

Unfortunately, these low-ring magic spells were ineffective in front of the extreme sub-zero temperatures of over negative one hundred ninety degrees; they either froze instantly or vanished without a trace like the Flame Burst Skill.

Sweat poured down Luo’er’s forehead. When Lynn walked to within five meters of him, he couldn’t help but cry out.

“Stop, I’ve lost this battle!”

Only then did Lynn’s forward steps halt, with the white mist already having spread within a meter in front of Luo’er.

Just the slight chill carried by the wind made Luo’er shiver uncontrollably, and what surprised him even more was that the stone pavement Lynn walked over had turned into a path of ice!

“What kind of magic is this?” Luo’er swallowed hard. He could imagine what would happen if this white mist touched his body—it would probably freeze like his Acidic Liquid Spray into ice, wouldn’t it?

“Frost Domain!” Lynn casually responded.

Luo’er didn’t believe it at all; he had seen other third-ring Wizards cast that magic, but none boasted such terrifying power.

It was obviously another self-improved spell!

“I must say, you are a formidable opponent, Lord Luo’er! Especially the idea of mixing a large amount of fluorine elements in water and then releasing it in the form of high-temperature steam. It’s truly innovative!” Lynn said with some emotion. This was another cunning magic and it would be his from now on!

Lynn’s praise left Luo’er unsure if he was being mocked.

After all, the battle had gone poorly for him. First, he had been put in a very difficult position by the zero-ring “Magic Missiles”, and then, after finally gaining some ground thanks to magical artifacts, his full-force “High-temperature Steaming Kill” was easily countered…

He was practically without the ability to fight back!

However, Luo’er didn’t know that Lynn’s words of praise were absolutely sincere!

If it had not been for these past days, wherein he had successfully solidified the spell slot for “Liquid Nitrogen – Frost Domain”, the battle might have indeed risked overturning.

Just a second-ring Wizard being able to achieve this much, Lynn’s alarm bells were already ringing. Indeed, he had been too complacent when he chose to use basic magic to hide the White Phosphorus Fire.

While Lynn was reflecting, Helram had already announced the results of the contest, and the surrounding students and professors immediately gathered around.

“So cold!”

Theodore had just stepped into the training ground and hadn’t walked more than a few steps before he involuntarily shivered, the speeds of all elemental movement within his perceptual vision dropping to an extremely low level.

This was still after someone, to prevent the leakage of information, had already stopped casting the spell, leaving only a bit of residual coldness lingering in the place…

A few curious students even squatted down on the ground, touching the tiles that were once covered in frost.

“The ground doesn’t seem that icy, does it?” Pearce said in surprise. When he tried to pull his fingers back, he was shocked to find that they were stuck to the tiles!

Only then did Pearce realize that it wasn’t that the tile wasn’t icy; rather, he had lost all sensation in his fingers the moment he touched the tile!

The other rash Wizard Apprentices cried out for their fathers and mothers, discovering their hands stuck to the tiles, unable to pull away.

The dismal state of a few made others like Ailoke, who were equally curious but had not yet made their move, shudder uncontrollably, hastily avoiding the tiles Lynn had just passed over.

“Fools, all magic is extremely dangerous, and one should never carelessly touch even the residual magic power!” shouted the Shaping Science Professor Kevin upon seeing this, as he quickly cast “Fossil into Mud” to destroy the icy tiles.

Only then were Pearce and the others able to pull their fingers free, but that patch of skin still had no sensation, and their faces turned pale.

After inspecting them, Kevin couldn’t help feeling shocked; in just a few short seconds, the cells at the contact surface had already died completely…

Could the mere remnants of a spell hold such power?

If someone were to be hit head-on, wouldn’t they be instantaneously frozen into ice?

Kevin looked at Lynn in astonishment, grateful that Pearce and the others, though reckless, had only touched with their fingers. The contact area was limited, and at most, they would lose a layer of skin – it wasn’t too serious an injury…
