NOVEL WEB Chapter 4 : Hydrogen Explosion
"It's very ironic because I have to use S+ tier magic with the potential to destroy a very wide area,"
"On the other hand, the effect of this magic is also like a nuclear bomb, but I will remove the radioactive elements contained within,"
Alice gazed again at the beautiful night sky, filled with stars like grains of sand on a beach.
"I promise to restore the battlefield area afterward,"
Because Alice didn't want the natural beauty she had seen to disappear, she resolved to use her magic to restore the battlefield after defeating the Mythical Monster.
Dozens of light blue magic circles also appeared around Alice's body, moving and spinning slowly. The light from Alice's magic circles reached the sky, like a bright blue beam descending from the heavens.
Even people hundreds of kilometers away could see the light in the form of a vertical line with a light blue color. However, if someone stared at the light, they would be dazzled after a while, just like staring at the sun.
And that's not good for eye health.
Alice felt that there might be unfinished preparations for her magic after the Mythical Monster appeared, so she issued a command.
"Arina, prepare your skills and magic to protect me,"
"Understood!"
Arina immediately leaped and landed right in front of Alice, ready to use skills or magic to protect her.
Suddenly, Alice remembered that she hadn't addressed her pet, so she decided to summon her pet as an additional damage dealer.
"Summon: Whitefox"
Instantly, a white magic circle appeared near Alice, followed by a white fox.
The white fox, the size of a horse, had nine tails, fur as white and soft as sheep's wool, and bright red eyes.
Its nine tails always seemed to float, rarely touching the ground. Alice would usually ride her white fox to explore uncharted areas because for explored areas, she typically used [Teleport].
The Whitefox could not only walk and run on land but also do so in the air, making it highly effective as transportation. Its speed was even faster than that of a Pegasus.
In the wilds of Monsterland, the Whitefox ranked fourth among Mythical Monsters and was very difficult to defeat. In its natural habitat, the Whitefox was much larger, resembling a typical giant monster.
After observing Alice for a moment, Whitefox immediately released a number of white magic circles, seemingly following Alice who was about to cast high-level magic.
"Gggrrrr....."
Whitefox appeared to be as vigilant as a guard dog but had a very unique sound.
Mana continued to gather until it formed a very dense egg. The egg was very small, but its contents were still a gigantic-sized Mythical Monster.
"Has it begun...?"
The current formation had Arina at the front as the Tanker and Support, with Alice in the middle, and Whitefox at the rear.
Whitefox was also level 150 and appeared to be wearing golden armor covering its body. Its strength could almost be compared to that of a player, but Whitefox was a pet and retained animal instincts.
"No need to worry, Alice-sama. I will protect you,"
"Thank you,"
"I'm not worthy of receiving thanks from Alice-sama."
(Hm?)
(What does she mean by 'not worthy of receiving thanks?')
Alice was a bit confused, but she pushed that aside and focused on the small egg, which was quite a distance from her current position.
The egg began to crack slowly and eventually hatched, revealing a gigantic monster.
"Hahaha, I'm very lucky,"
Alice smiled and grew more confident, but she remained serious.
The creature was a black serpent-like dragon of immense size and length. Its appearance resembled an Eastern dragon, with a snake-like body.
It stood about 15 meters tall and stretched up to 500 meters in length, covered in sharp, hard scales all over its body. It had four very small hands, which appeared to serve no apparent function upon a cursory glance.
"True Abyssal Dragon Lord!"
"HAHAHAHA, VERY WELL, I SHALL FACE YOU!!!"
Alice let out a fairly loud cry, and she was very excited.
The True Abyssal Dragon Lord began to open its bright yellow eyes with vertically slit pupils, each end of which was sharply pointed.
Of course, it knew that a group of dangerous creatures was nearby, so the True Abyssal Dragon Lord immediately roared loudly in the direction of these dangerous creatures, which were none other than Alice, Arina, and Whitefox.
The roar of the True Abyssal Dragon Lord was so deafeningly loud that it created a massive shockwave. Even thousands of trees were immediately uprooted by TADL's thunderous roar, turning the once lush, tree-filled forest into a barren landscape.
Before the True Abyssal Dragon Lord roared, Arina immediately used one of her skills to create a large, transparent circular shield. This shield was meant to protect Alice and Whitefox to ensure that the activation of their magic would not be disrupted.
[Pure Shield]
Even the trees that had been their foothold were sent flying due to the powerful roar of the True Abyssal Dragon Lord, causing Alice and the others to be suspended in the air.
Alice glanced around her surroundings and seemed slightly irritated because the once beautiful forest had now become barren, devoid of trees. Dust and sand were also flying in all directions.
It seemed that the once lush forest would become a dry and desolate land.
"This is truly bothersome,"
Alice raised both of her hands, signaling that she was ready to unleash her magic.
"MAXIMA PENETRATE OVER PURIFY CENTRAL MAGIC: HYDROGEN EXPLOSION!!!!"
After that, Whitefox also roared, indicating that it was ready to use magic. Since Whitefox couldn't speak, it couldn't chant a magic incantation.
[Maxima Penetrate Magic: True Icy Burst]
A small object appeared to fall from the sky, resembling a pebble. The pebble struck the body of the True Abyssal Dragon Lord and instantly produced a massive explosion.
The resulting explosion appeared immense, like a nuclear blast dropped from the sky. The sound and shockwave were deafening, accompanied by a mushroom-shaped cloud.
[Tier S+ Magic: Hydrogen Explosion] should have had highly destructive radioactive effects, but Alice decided to neutralize them to prevent further harm to the natural environment by adding a metamagic called Purify.
The previously somewhat dark scenery now turned red due to the tremendous explosion unleashed by Alice. The explosion could even be seen from thousands of kilometers away, undoubtedly affecting the surrounding kingdoms.
The extremely loud shockwave immediately cleared away the remaining forest, transforming it entirely into barren land. Besides the deafening explosion and shockwave, the roars of the True Abyssal Dragon Lord were so loud that all these sounds merged.
Even if someone heard this sound, even from a radius of over 500 kilometers, they could go deaf or even have their eardrums shattered. Alice focused the explosion on one point and reduced the blast radius to avoid causing more severe damage to the surrounding area.
By using the metamagic [Central], Alice concentrated her magic on a single point.
The temperature rose significantly, and the shockwave cleared everything, turning it into barren, desolate land. Even hills seemed to vanish instantly due to the tremendous explosion.
"I promise to restore this environment,"
On the other hand, Alice also considered that if she allowed the True Abyssal Dragon Lord to roam freely, it would be releasing a creature capable of causing even more severe damage to nature.
If there were people within a 100 km radius, they would be instantly incinerated by Alice's explosion, and the safest distance was 1000 km. The earthquakes and tremors generated could be felt in many kingdoms within a radius of 9000 km.
Alice's Hydrogen explosion lasted for about 10 minutes, leaving behind only a massive cloud of smoke and a very deep crater. Exploding hydrogen had the potential to severely damage the environment and should not be used.
However, Alice had no other choice but to use it, even though she dearly loved nature.
