Chapter 184: Insaesya Fear Ray Achieves Great Success!

The Insaesya Fear Ray, named after the ancient civilization ‘Insaesya,’ is a magic that was unearthed and replicated by a Sage.

However, in reality, this technique was not originally invented by the Insaesya people.

According to the findings of the Sage, the ‘Insaesya Fear Ray’ was likely a special curse created by a civilization that opposed Insaesya at the time.

Therefore, the correct way to break up and understand this curse’s name should be “a ray used to wipe out the powerful and frightening Insaesya Civilization.”

Considering the numerous semi-automatic magic devices and large magic devices found in the Mercury Ruins, remnants of the Insaesya Civilization, this ray is typically believed to be used to penetrate strong magical shields, eliminate high-level Superoperators, or directly assassinate army leaders in battle.

This magic has the features and advantages of high penetration, high damage, high accuracy, and a long-lasting killing effect.

However, the downside is that, despite its immense power and high energy consumption, its attack range is quite limited compared to other curses, which can often cover an entire city. Additionally, it requires a long time to chant and the caster must possess a vast amount of magical power and deep knowledge of magic and the Arcane.

Even though it appears as a huge beam of magical light, maintaining such a high concentration of magical power at a single point, along with its penetrating effects, requires a very complex spell structure.

Any change in quantity can lead to a change in quality. Even the simplest Fireball in elemental magic becomes difficult to stabilize when its size is increased—this is a classic exam question in the Elemental Theory course at the Cloud City Wizard Association, asking how to create a Fireball with a diameter of over fifty meters.

Of course, as the Great Sage, whether it is creating a fifty-meter Fireball or releasing the Insaesya Fear Ray, is not something that Patricia cannot do.

The huge white beam of light, a torrent of pure Arcane magic, struck the waters, and the powerful penetrating magic was daunting even to the Power of the Evil God from a deity!

After all, the spells of the Forbidden Spell Level exist to challenge the “realm of the gods”!

“Die, you old witch!”

Patricia shouted as the annihilation ray pierced through the thick tentacles underwater.

Wherever it touched, the immense magical power completely destroyed and melted flesh and divine energy, much like how high temperatures melt ice and snow!

The tentacles on the water’s surface also sensed great pain and the threat of destruction, causing them to stop circling around Tina and quickly retreat underwater.

The tentacle monster also sensed the enormous danger brought by this forbidden spell. Even though more than ten of its tentacles had been blasted off, it still controlled its remaining tentacles to shield itself from the annihilation ray.

It knew very well that it absolutely could not let this thing hit its core.

Otherwise, it would mean certain death.

Countless tentacles unwrapped from the tentacle ball and formed a new tentacle ball in front of the core, blocking the advance of the annihilation ray!

Although this thing can penetrate the thick waters of the Power of the Evil God, it can only slowly destroy the tentacles that hold the Power of the Evil God in their flesh.

The progress of the ray was really blocked by the layers of tentacles.

Even though the layers of tentacles kept breaking and regenerating, they only slowed down the advance of Insaesya Fear Ray. After all, the speed of the tentacle regeneration is extremely small compared to the speed of the ray.

But slowing it down… is already enough!

Without a doubt, this turned a certain death situation into a game of chance.

Whether the tentacles are all pierced first or Patricia’s ray runs out—this will decide the fate of the tentacle monster.

Of course, if Lolth was not underwater, it would simply be a straightforward battle between the two.

But how could Lolth miss this great opportunity?

She held back her nausea and came here just to wait for this moment.

Accompanied by most of the tentacles trying to stop the beam, she directly arrived in front of the flesh bed.

The whale’s absorption of the Power of the Evil God seemed to be getting a little faster.

However, she did not have any spare time to think about this little whale now.

“I didn’t expect that even without seeing the brain, it would still be quite clever…”

Lolth had already calculated that Patricia’s beam likely could not kill this tentacle monster.

With this level of forbidden spell and magical output, considering Patricia’s magic power and the reduced consumption due to the magic wand, it probably wouldn’t last long.

According to her calculations, it would basically deal a heavy blow to the tentacle monster but wouldn’t directly kill it.

And based on this creature’s recovery ability, as long as it doesn’t die, any serious injury isn’t a big deal for it.

Because the core will not be damaged.

“But I’m sorry, I still don’t know how long I will be staying here. If you keep living to bother us… it will be very difficult.”

Lolth said this and used a simple space magic.

It was not meant to cut or strangle the flesh bed; if that were the case, the magic required would create too much of a disturbance and could easily be noticed.

Also, it would be a hassle for her.

Since Patricia’s move was so powerful, Lolth chose to make things easier.

“Short-distance teleportation.”

As she said this, she crossed her hands, and once the space magic activated, the core of the flesh bed disappeared along with her from the tentacle ball.

Then, she teleported forward by several meters.

She passed through the barrier formed by the tentacles and arrived in front of Insaesya Fear Ray.

Lolth stood beside Insaesya Fear Ray.

The meat bed, under her precise calculations, was perfectly bathed in that huge flow of magical power.

“Hiss—”

A slight sound of flesh melting arose but did not last long.

In the next moment, all the tentacles expanded outward simultaneously, as if ready to dance wildly!

But before they could dance, the tentacles suddenly stopped moving, drooping softly, breaking off and falling towards the depths of the water.

After this, Patricia seemed to notice the strange death of the tentacle monster, as the magical output of the ray gradually weakened, and finally completely stopped fading away.

During this process, Lolth, who was standing aside, confirmed something.

She felt the whale statue, which had just absorbed some of the magic from the forbidden spell in front of her. After recalling when it had stopped absorbing, she came up with a guess.

“Is the key… the concentration of magic?”
