Book 7: Chapter 458: The Rainbow Tower Indestructible Even by Forbidden Spells and Unforeseen Changes in the Original Sin Pentagram Summoning
At the Aldridge Empire’s seaside resort spot, Oldrango City’s coastal region, near the center of Phoenix Island, the ancient Victor Magic Ruins where the final round of the “Night of the Witches” was being held. With the appearance of the full moon in the night sky, the final round of the girls’ “Night of the Witches” event began. Practically at the same time, other than the seven-colored rainbow tower, the rest of the five academies’ towers joined hands to attack the rainbow tower simultaneously.
It was normal in the history of the “Night of the Witches” competition for the other five towers to band together and attack the rainbow tower in the finals. Compared to the last two times, this siege had gone beyond what the audience expected. In the past, the five magic towers would first try to test the rainbow tower’s level of defense with some little tricks, so this all-out siege went beyond common sense.
As if it had been premeditated, the five towers directly attacked the rainbow tower with forbidden level large range super magic at the very beginning, almost like they were trying to determine the winner from the very first blow.
Olsylvia Academy’s purple tower launched a forbidden illusion spell, “Eternal Night Symphony”, a super large mixed-type spiritual attack magic made up of a mix of hypnotism and chaos effects. A bright purple glow appeared right above the purple tower with various beating purple notes dancing within it, as well as vague black music score lines. The score moved along with the purple glow as they floated towards the rainbow tower.
After finding out that the rainbow tower did not have any special magic attributes, Bella developed this battle plan. The other four magic towers will act as covers for the purple tower so that the purple tower’s special attack can accurately hit the rainbow tower. No matter how strong a mage unit was, if they encountered restricting magic such as spiritual magic, their fates would basically be sealed.
Once the hypnosis was successful, Alessandra Academy for the Foreign Races’ rainbow tower will defeat itself. The mages on the tower will all be hypnotized and to grab victory without damaging the tower was the goal that Bella was trying her best to achieve.
The other four magic towers did not remain idle either. They were responsible for acting as cover so they were mainly moving along with Bella’s purple tower acting as the guide. Listabel Mage’s Academy’s white tower unleashed a light forbidden spell, “Declaration of God”. A golden light shot out from above the tower, and wherever the light passed, translucent angel-like figures would faintly be seen moving along with the white light.
This move was originally used by the Radiant Church to block the invasion of the Ancient Twelve Demon Kings. This is one of only a few moves that can make the Twelve Demon Kings back off temporarily. It was amazingly powerful, only the cost of casting it is a bit large. The caster has to sacrifice about one to ten years of their cultivation, so generally the Radiant Church would not dare to use this spell indiscriminately.
Dimiost Wizard’s Academy’s black tower launched the forbidden spell, “Dark Fantasy”. This move is a mini version of one of Dark Night Demon King Aggy’s commonly used spells, “Dark Night Fantasy”. The version Aggy uses can instantly level a city, even gaining a bonus in dark environments. It could at least crush a small duchy.
The weakened version “Dark Fantasy” used by the black tower looks just like a dozen black spherical shadows and was shot out one by one like marbles. Even if you were in the audience seats, you can still feel the deep resentment within the dark shadow balls.
Augustus Academy’s golden tower launched a mixed magic called “Metal Assault”. This is an original alchemist’s move which power was able to reach the general level of a forbidden spell. Only, the Mage’s Union hasn’t recognized it till now, so the alchemists themselves rarely used it.
A tornado storm with a variety of metallic scraps mixed in sprung up a short distance in front of the golden tower that was heading directly to the rainbow tower. Anywhere the storm passed, any rock, no matter how sturdy, would be rolled up by the metal storm and mercilessly crushed.
Frederica Maritime Trade Academy’s blue tower’s forbidden level spell is the relatively par for the course ice spell, “Poseidon’s Wrath”. Huge waves seemed to appear out of nowhere and were rolling directly towards the rainbow tower. It looks just like one spell, but was in fact two forbidden-level magical spells. Only, your average person would not be able to tell.
The waves brought with it a more subtle water spell called “Tears of the Deep”. This move creates an evil force hidden within normal seawater and would generally pretend to be normal in order to disguise its own danger. If you really believe it to be seawater, then you’d be really unlucky. Coming in contact with the seawater comes with the danger of erosion. THeir purpose is to destroy the foundation of the rainbow tower, a different target than what the other four were aiming at.
Frederica Academy’s forbidden magic attack looks like the weakest one among the bunch, but they had secretly launched a second forbidden spell within it, so in truth, the fifth tower’s attack is the strongest. Only, there weren’t many clear particles from the forbidden spell, nor did it look dominant and magnificent. The audience would only mistake the blue tower as tagalongs.
Five magic towers were only able to instantly cast forbidden level magic with the help of the Demon Kings’ energy. The Demon Kings at the top of each tower which took the role of the “witches” bears the brunt of the majority of magical power needed to cast the forbidden level spells. The girls in the tower didn’t actually expend much magical energy so they still had the power to fight later.
The audience was completely riled up. Many of the audience members are unfamiliar with magic and only came for a lively show just to see several forbidden spells uniting to attack, which was something you’d hardly see during a lifetime. For many, that alone was worth coming for. In the face of the joint forbidden level magic attacks of the five magic towers, the attacked rainbow tower did not seem to panic. The magic tower was surrounded by a seven-colored rainbow light which made it even more dazzling, presenting a special glow under the moonlight.
A rainbow curtain covered the entire rainbow tower. The first to hit it is the black tower’s “Dark Fantasy” and the white tower’s “Declaration of God” When both light and darkness collided on the same target, a short-lived phenomenon would occur, forming chaos magic. Chaos magic belonged to a special attribute of magic. In the moment of the chaos magic explosion, the entire rainbow tower shoke as if it was going to be destroyed.
The golden tower’s “Metal Assault” and the blue tower’s “Poseidon’s Wrath” mixed with the “Tears of the Deep” arrived next. The metal storm beat frantically against the rainbow curtain as if it was going to tear it apart. As for the wave, it had landed directly at the bottom of the tower as if it intended to bring the whole tower down.
Bella’s purple tower’s magic attack is the last to come. The musical score and purple energy notes of the “Eternal Night Symphony” floated towards the top of the rainbow tower, seemingly planning to hypnotize the students at the top of the magic tower or to stun them. What way, they could win without having to fight.
Due to the participation of the Demon Kings, this round of joint attacks is in fact equivalent to the joint attack of Bella and four other Demon Kings together. If it was any other normal magic tower, it would have turned to ashes long ago. However, there were many “cheat” level students among the Alessandra Academy with all kinds of out-of-spec existences abound, they were able to take the hit by force.
When the smoke of the explosion of the joint attacks subsided, the audience was silent. Though many have already guessed the result, when they truly saw it, many were still deeply shocked. Under the five or six forbidden level spells’ attacks, the defense barrier around the rainbow tower was completely unharmed as if those attacks never happened to begin with.
Bella, who was sitting on top of the purple tower and directing everyone, looked a bit grave. If she was not wrong, then the rainbow curtain around that tower earlier had the power of a Creator. It’s very likely to be the very Creator of this dimension. After the large explosion, Bella could perceive similar attributes with the God of Creation of this realm from the energy fluctuations. Bella had met the God of Creation before when she warped back more than a thousand years in time so she was still quite familiar with the Creator’s energy attributes.
The rainbow tower used by Alessandra Academy was probably a relic of this dimension’s Creator. Who knows how it ended up on Phoenix Artificial Island and was then added to the “Night of the Witches” magic tower repository. Even the organizer of the competition, transmigrator Empress Manya Felan herself, couldn’t figure out how the rainbow tower came about. This is the only tower not created by her.
This has seriously affected the balance of the game. Even though Bella and the girls have several Demon Kings added to their ranks, the power of the Demon Kings alone is not enough to defeat the miracle left behind by the Creator. More than ten millennia ago when the ancient demon kings invaded, the Creator of this realm was already long gone so the Demon Kings did not fight with the Creator. When the God Race fell, other than the fact that they were too proud of themselves and couldn’t work sincerely with the Netherworld, it may also have a lot to do with the fact that the Creator was missing in action.
Bella was hesitant to launch power equal to a Demon God to attack the rainbow tower. Among the powers that can destroy a miracle left behind by the Creator, the simplest most brutal power is that of the World Destructors’ Demon God. However, without waiting for the five towers to make their next move, the rainbow tower counterattacked. Their counterattack did not seem like a forbidden spell, but rather a seven-colored rainbow sphere.
That is the weakened version of the move commonly used by Creators called “Elemental Blast”. The complete version of the “Elemental Blast” is at least the size of a meteorite and was a super move that can destroy an entire continent. The compressed version is only the size of a normal fireball but still has enough power to destroy a city. The reason it’s difficult to defend against is mainly because of its full-attribute nature. General defensive barriers made up of a single magical element is unable to defend against the attack of all the attributes.
Bella wanted to give everyone a warning, but it was too late. Five loud explosions came. All five magic towers were shaking from the hit they received from the “Elemental Blast”, and the defense barrier outside was already blown flat. But surprisingly, the girls inside the towers were unharmed. They weren’t even affected by any of the magic fluctuations.
It turns out that the instant the “Elemental Blast” exploded, the Demon Kings sitting at the top of each magic tower released their own Demon King barriers at the very last moment, protecting the tower. The cost of this act which was against the standard “professional code” of a Demon King is great. Under normal circumstances, the Demon Kings would have chosen to avoid this attack and not to face it, but they chose to stay.
Other than Bella, whose identity was tied to the Creator and God of Creation of this world and was not affected by the “Elemental Blast”, the other four Demon Kings have all basically suffered varying degrees of damage. Through the magic curtain appearing before her was used specially by Demon Kings to talk to each other, she could clearly see the states of the four Demon Kings at the top of each tower.
The girls basically all had “decorated” faces from unjury. Bloody tears could clearly be seen at the corners of Sky Demon King Dolores and Blood Demon King Eleanor’s eyes while blood was flowing out the corners of Ocean Demon King Victoria and Dark Night Demon King Aggy’s faces. They were more severely injured as bleeding from the mouth would hint that they had received internal damage. Since the magic towers they were protecting were closer to the rainbow tower, the amount of time left for Victoria and Aggy to pull up their barriers was far less than Bella’s, so it was inevitable that they received greater injuries.
“Victoria, Aggy, you guys didn’t have to go that far!”
“None of your business, not like I’m scared of anything happening to the girls in the tower. Don’t overthink it, Bella. I’m a qualified Demon King.”
“Bella, Victoria and I aren’t that type of bloodthirsty Demon King. The Radiant Church’s scriptures are misleading. There are Demon Kings among us twelve who do not kill civilians or those who yield.”
“Aggy, why did you bring up those things from the past? Don’t listen to her, Bella, she’s just yammering!”
The guilt in Bella’s heart reduced a lot as she watched Dark Night Demon King Aggy and Ocean Demon King Victoria bickering with each other through the magic curtain. From this moment on, Dark Night Demon King Aggy and Ocean Demon King Victoria were secretly classed in Bella’s heart as “quasi-friendly units”. In the future, if the old Ancient Twelve Demon Kings were to lose to the new Twelve Demon Kings led by Bella, then she will not execute Aggy or Victoria.
“Bella, they’re going to launch the Elemental Blast again. Why don’t we switch positions?”
“You just have to watch out for me, Ariel. Seems like I still have to use that final move.”
“But Bella, the summoning of the Original Sin Pentagram is unstable. What if something goes wrong!”
“Doesn’t matter. Not like we’re going to summon anything I can’t deal with anyway, so don’t worry.”
After hearing Bella’s confident tone, Ariel of the Renegades no longer brought up any opposition. However, Bella’s last words really jinxed her. The one they summoned later really wasn’t someone that Bella could deal with so easily. After receiving a look from Bella, Sky Demon King Dolores and the other three Demon Kings dragged their wounded bodies and began the Original Sin Pentagram Array’s initiation ritual.
Time instantly stood still in Victor Magic Ruins and the originally fervent cheers of the audience instantly became silent as the world turned greyscale. The rainbow tower that was about to attack was instantly surrounded by the five magic towers which had suddenly shifted positions, and they seemed to float as if they were ascending into the sky, hovering some distance from the ground.
The rest of the magic towers were now posed into the shape of a pentagram with each magic tower located at each of the five corners. The rainbow light which symbolized eternity instantly dimmed under the suppression of the five-point array. Even the moon of the night sky had changed into three different colors that shimmered alternately. If you had good eyes, then you could faintly see a fourth color that was hard to make out.
Bella instantly regretted it when the summoning ritual began. The power that was swarming towards the peaks of the other four towers seemed almost bottomless. This magic power had long exceeded the level present in a Demon King. These were not Demon Kings. Everyone else was fixed in place, even the outrageously powerful existences like the Renegades like Princess Ariel. The guys they summoned really were far beyond Bella’s imagination.
Bella had now automatically switched out of her body and returned to being Sacred Demon God Samantha. Her Demon King surrogate Princess Felia was now sitting at the top of the magic tower witch’s throne like she was asleep. It felt more like Bella’s true form had been “forced” out. She stood at the tip of the purple tower, looking nervously at the top of the other magic towers. When the summoned existences descend, they will stand on top of the magic towers.
At first, Bella thought that they would only be able to summon the World Destructors’ Demon Gods or Evil Gods, but now it seems she was wrong. Only the one summoned above the white tower where Sky Demon King Dolores sits is an existence from the World Destructor Camp. The other three are not from the World Destructor Camp at all.
There was no doubt that the one summoned on top of Blood Demon King Eleanor’s golden tower is a Chaos Bringer. The special effects that showed up when they appeared are ones Bella had seen from Chaos Bringers like Time Space Demon Noesha. On the other hand, there was a strange Savior Camp aura coming off from the one summoned on top of Ocean Demon King Victoria’s blue tower, as if it had been mutated.
The most terrifying one was the one on Dark Night Demon King Aggy’s black tower. The one summoned at the top of the black tower was completely unreadable to Bella. Since Bella had an inexplicable affinity for the other three, Bella could just about guess who they were, but she had no idea who the fourth one was. Since it could appear in this five-point evil array, that meant it had a great bond and connection with Bella’s true Demon God form.
The mysterious fourth person to descend had the aura of a World Creator on them, but it was definitely not of this dimension. This is a Creator of an unknown attribute.
