Chapter 2804 Life Forces (Part 2)

Surprise turned into shock when a red wave erupted from the Blood Warlock's body, hitting the Abomination with a fully charged Blood Tide.

"I can see that now." Shelk said, passing part of the Blood Maelstrom to his ally. "Heal your wounds and join me as soon as you can. You are supposed to be the Abomination's counter!"

"On what grounds, pal?" The Void had slipped out of the Voidwalker armor, pressing his whole body against the red wave in order to suck as much of its power as he could with his Abomination Touch. "I seem to be *his* counter."

Ragnar?k pressed with its black blood constructs against the energy dome as well, sharing the Abomination Touch of its master thanks to both the Spirit Crystal and Lith's blood that had been used as an amplifier during its reforging.

The black crystal made the process more efficient while the white crystal converted the energy stolen from the Blood Tide into a form that the emerald crystal metabolized, replenishing the power core of the blade.

When the flash from the Blood Tide disappeared, the Abomination had suffered little damage while Lith's equipment had taken none.

The Void wore the armor and wielded the black blade, using it to conjure one tier one Chaos Missile for each finger of his right hand. Shelk ignored the phenomenon, chanting as many spells as he could as fast as he could.

"I see." The Abomination depowered the spells and Ragnar?k, turning its aura down. "Blood Flames to counter my Flames, Blood Maelstrom to screw with my equipment, and Blood Tide to neutralize my bloodline abilities. A smart plan."

"How do you know that?" Shelk's mind thought of the obvious answer first.

There was a traitor among their ranks. His plan was to have Lith go all-out, bringing his equipment to the limit so that a timely burst of Blood Maelstrom would destroy it.

If Lith went for some powerful spell or any bloodline ability-based strategy, instead, Blood Tide would throw the Tiamat's efforts down the gutter. Without world energy, only Spirit Magic would work.

The mana geyser below them was bound to quickly refill the area, but that wouldn't give Lith the mana/life energy spent back, just provide the Blood Warlock with more ammunition for another Blood Tide.

The Void refused to answer but then the Blood Warlock noticed the black chain coming out of his own chest. A little present left by the Abomination during their previous clash.

Shelk tried to pull at it, but the chain was ethereal and apparently immune to magic.

In a distant corridor, the Voidfeather felt a pull on his consciousness.

<nulli>'What do you want, George?'

<nulli>'Don't call me that! Also, how the fuck can you still be on the first floor?' The Void replied with a snarl.

<nulli>'Perfection requires time.' The Voidfeather Dragon shared his vision, showing to his poorly esteemed colleague that the Demons at his command had still five eyes and some of them six.

<nulli>'Whatever. Want to beat the ass of someone who uses an unknown branch of magic?'

Trouble went back to its artificial intelligence stored in the memory crystal as the Voidfeather Dragon left the wheel. _{frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓}

<nulli>'Can I use the Eyes, please?' He asked Solus via their mind link.
