Chapter 449 - Black Destructive Beam

Jason and the rest of the army were behind the small four-race alliance, and they had only been noticed when it was already too late.

There was no need for Jason to conceal his mana core until because they had reached the last rows of the Doom Crawls which was the race he and the other big clans were supposed to target.

It was only when Byakur appeared in Jason's hand that the first Doom Crawl noticed an ominous feeling enveloping it.

Barely a second later, Jason had already pierced through the first Doom Crawl's chest.

Twisting Baykur within its chest, he split a part of Solaris from his body as he ordered it to absorb the Doom Crawls life force.

At the same time, Shane flapped with his wings in order to soar a few meters into the air as he held out his emtpy hand.

He moved his fingers and it looked like he was holding an invisible ball as he manifested an unmoving compressed flame.

Only a moment later, the compressed flame's temperature intensified as Jason threw it towards the most crowded area.

Jason had compressed the black flame to such a high degree, that it would inflate normally.

However, in order to prevent this from happening he enveloped it in a faint mana membrane that was about to burn out at any moment.

The moment the compressed ball of fire burned the membrane holding it together, it exploded, devastating the areas in a five-meter radius around it.

Yet, instead of slacking off, Jason had already manifested several hundred icicles which he shot towards the Lowest Lique stage Doom Crawls that were trying to start a counteroffensive against the huge crowd of humans that attacked them out of nowhere.

Artemis' icicles were unable to kill a single opponent, but it was more than enough to distract, or even injure most Doom Crawls.

It was not long after that Jason dived towards the next Doom Crawls.

Though before he was able to massacre a path through the Doom Crawls with less than 200 liquefied drops of mana, a Doom Crawl with 300 drops of mana within its mana core appeared in front of him.

"You're dead meat!

" Is shouted out in the universal language and Jason only retorted

"We'll see who'll be dead first!

"

At that moment, he released the entire transformed Celestia aura and his stigma began to glow brightly.

However, instead of attacking directly, Jason exerted Petri's race-specific weakening for the first time since he had obtained it!

Only a moment later, the Doom Crawl's hideous expression worsened as its pace decreased drastically.

'Physical strength weakening?' Jason thought with a faint smile on his face as he exerted the weightless steps technique which increased his speed by 60%.

After the Doom Crawl's physical strength had been weakened, Jason was not only at an advantage with his affinities, but his physical strength was not weaker anymore!

As such, he could use his high combat experience and affinities to his heart's content.

Less than two minutes later the confident Doom Crawl with 300 drops of liquefied mana within its mana core had already died.

Those who witnessed this were scared to face Jason, while the stronger Doom Crawls tried to advance towards him in order to take care of the biggest issue.

He was a dangerous opponent, others might take lightly because of the low number of liquefied drops of mana within his mana core.

This was dangerous and could be compared to tricking one's mind, which was the reason for the stronger Doom Crawls to focus on him.

Yet, this caused them to be distracted and the big families used this out to kill exactly those Doom Crawls.

Jason was not sure how high their numerical advantage was, but the Doom Crawls seemed to balance everything out through their extreme pyhsical strength.

He needed around two minutes to defeat a stronger Doom Crawl while using Petri's curse. His combat experience and the black fire affinity that was already on par with late Lique ranked affinities were unique too.

Unfortunately, Jason was unable to utilize Solaris' affinity however he wanted because he didn't have an efficient way to replenish his mana if he were to use Solaris' entire strength.

The mana consumption was simply too high and Jason had to pay attention to this!

If Canir's naturally generated mana had been a few times higher, this wouldn't be a problem and Jason would have been confident in defeating most opponents in his proximity.

The only advantage Solaris could utilize was to absorb other's lifeforce.

Yet, this didn't give much mana to Solaris and instead, it served a different purpose!

Petri was still evolving, however, when it sensed the Doom Crawls curse that was intertwined with their life force, it transmitted its desire to absorb their life force!

Jason was not sure whether Petri was an endless hole, demanding more and more lifeforce without showing any result or if it was truly beneficial to strengthen the petrification serpent. Fortunately, it was not problematic to test it out!

Solaris had to absorb some of the dead Doom Crawls' life force in order to draw out a minuscule amount of mana from it, either way.

As such it might as well drain them completely!

The other big clans that fought nearby facing Doom Crawls had more problems against those that were equally strong than they were.

Fortunately enough, the big clans were at a numerical advantage, which allowed them to fight against their opponents head-on.

There was nobody who was much stronger than another as several huge explosions resounded through the surrounding area.

Since they had arrived, not even 10 minutes had past but the tides of the battle had already shifted.

This was mainly thanks to the Ariyor race that utilized their quicksilver affinity to overwhelm the basic races.

They were able to retaliate but it was obvious how vast the difference between common and higher races was.

Their combat prowess and experience were already enough to allow Jason to perceive this. However, the way most Ariyor were able to utilize their affinity was superior to every being he had ever seen using affinities.

Since the first time Jason saw them fighting, he was intrigued about the wide variety of attacks they could execute.

It was not only complex but also extremely powerful.

This was also where he received the idea to create the detonating black ball of fire!

Yet, when he recalled how Ysla had shot a beam of compressed quicksilver at him, Jason couldn't help but feel that he should try out something similar.

His mana eyes had imprinted every single move of mana Ysla had executed during that time after all!

Solaris knew exactly what Jason wanted to accomplish after he had transmitted his memories to it. However, to Jason's astonishment, Solaris told him that he should point with his index finger towards a Doom Crawl.

After he had followed Solaris' instructions, Jason felt how it began to take control over the black flame affinity as it led it through his body towards Jason's index finger.

Only a moment later, when it reached the tip of his finger, Solaris accumulated a large amount of mana before he ignited a tiny, yet highly compressed flame manifested in front of Jason's index finger.

Seconds later, when a large amount of mana had been stored within his index finger, everything was released at once.

When the stored mana had been released Jason's entire index finger felt as if it was breaking multiple times owing to the terrific high impact.

However, when he saw how he shot out a highly compressed beam of mana that was completely intertwined with Solaris' black flames, Jason couldn't help but fall in awe.

'Isn't this attack similar to a laser gun? Just several dozen times more powerful?'

The moment Jason shot out the black fire beam, a shockwave spread out from him!

Two Doom Crawls that stood nearby each other had been pierced by the black fire beam before its might decreased drastically.

Even though the beam's might had decreased, it was only barely unable to kill the third Doom Crawl that had already a small hole in its chest.

At that moment everyone whether it was friend or foe stared at Jason, who held his index finger that seemed to be burned and broken, in shock.

He had to utilize a decent amount of mana, but with the thoughts and ideas that had begun to implant themselves into Jason's mind, he couldn't care less about the pain as he mumbled.

"That's it!!
