All My Professions Have Divine-Level Talents-Chapter 49: Facing the Monarch

He found Luo Si and Meizer.

The moment Lu Cang saw this, he immediately pointed his Magic Staff at them.

"Breathing Wind Swarm."

WHOOSH!

Wind Blades formed in the distance almost instantly—

SPLAT!

The swarm of wind, like a meat grinder, tore across the ground. Blood flew from the kneeling Blood Puppets as their bodies were instantly minced!

At the same time...

"Rejection Wind Roar."

This time, the Wind Roar wasn’t blasted away from Lu Cang!

Lu Cang made a grasping motion!

BOOM!

A tempest erupted in an instant!

The tempest, carrying the swarm of wind, instantly sliced at the Blood Chains binding Luo Si and Meizer.

SNAP!

Even the resilient Blood Chains couldn’t withstand the instantaneous cutting force of hundreds of Wind Blades and shattered!

The wind blasted the two of them toward Lu Cang’s position!

He killed the small fry and rescued the two captives.

It was all accomplished in a single, fluid motion.

Simultaneously, Lu Cang immediately gathered Ice beneath his feet, preparing to get them out of there right away.

Once he had them, he would immediately fly away on an Ice Shuttle.

As for fighting the boss...

’Who the hell would fight a boss while carrying two burdens?’

’If I’m going to fight it, I’ll do it after I get these two to safety and come back fully prepared!’

’Only an idiot would try to force a boss kill when they should be rescuing people.’

He chugged a Strength Potion, and Lu Cang felt power surge through his body.

While it wasn’t quite the stamina of a Tier Two Warrior, carrying two adults at once was no longer a problem.

But just as Lu Cang was about to catch the two of them...

He saw blood-red patterns materialize on their necks.

"They are already afflicted by the Blood Curse."

"Where do you think you’re taking them?"

The King Level Demon on the distant throne roared in anger.

SWISH!

The instant its words fell...

...forty-two Ice Shuttles had already flown out!

BANG!

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!—

All the Ice Shuttles passed directly through the King Level Demon’s body.

However, the Ice Shuttles dealt no damage.

Instead, its body had turned into a hollow void of blood, and the Ice Shuttles simply passed through it.

They didn’t hit a thing.

"Interesting."

"Human, you... don’t hesitate at all, do you."

Lu Cang didn’t respond.

He simply met its gaze, and with no warning or hand gesture—

"Earth and Fire Shattering Heaven."

"Cross-Birth Pillar."

BOOM!

The ground beneath its throne instantly turned red-hot!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The Cross-Birth Pillars erupted almost simultaneously with the violent magma!

Each Cross-Birth Pillar had become a scorching hot pillar of lava!

A Magic combination.

This was the result of Lu Cang’s recent practice.

Punching Pillar mobilizes the earth to erupt in spikes.

Earth Fire turns the earth into lava...

’If you can change your body to dodge attacks, then I’ll just use Magic that covers your entire body.’

BOOM!

It wasn’t just Cross-Birth Pillars that erupted, but also immense, ash-gray walls.

"Mountain Heavy Wall (Level 201)."

Bigger, thicker walls, with even greater hardness.

Three giant walls formed a triangular cage, trapping the demon directly inside.

The Blood Curse.

Lu Cang knew about it...

The cursed victim continuously loses blood until they become a dried-up corpse.

The method for Curse Removal...

...is to kill the one who cast the curse.

Therefore, the moment he heard the demon’s roar, Lu Cang launched his attack.

Taking them away and returning to the Life Hall for Curse Removal was one option.

However, the strongest in Raine Town’s Life Hall was only a Level 4 Healing Mage.

They might not be able to remove the Curse of a King Level Demon.

A healer on the level of Kumironi was a rare find, not someone you could count on meeting.

Lu Cang didn’t know how weak Luo Si and Meizer were, or how long they could last.

The Source was right in front of him now.

His mind raced.

Lu Cang came to a conclusion—kill it.

"Human!"

From within the encirclement of Heavy Walls, a hoarse roar could still be heard!

’It’s not dead?’

’King Level Demons are indeed much more durable than Lord Level ones.’

’If it were Lord Level, that last attack should have cooked it through.’

Lu Cang bent down and touched the ground.

The blood on the ground froze, forming a sheet of Ice.

Canceling the Heavy Wall in front of him, Lu Cang blasted Meizer and Luo Si over with a gust of wind, then blasted them again, pushing them onto the path he had taken to get here.

The monsters over there had already been cleared out.

’Hmm... but I can’t be sure there isn’t some other mechanism for spawning mobs.’

’If that’s the case, they’ll just have to count themselves unlucky.’

’After all, the front line of my battle with this King Level Demon is definitely far more dangerous.’

’I’m a Mage, not a Defender.’

’I don’t have time to protect two unconscious people in the middle of a fight.’

As he thought this, he glanced at them again.

Lu Cang sighed.

RUMBLE RUMBLE RUMBLE!

Three Heavy Walls materialized, enclosing them.

’With Multiple Casting, I can currently generate a total of twelve Heavy Walls at once. If I hit the limit, I have to cancel an old one to create a new one.’

’I’ve used three on them, so now I only have nine left for myself.’

BANG!

At that very moment, a deafening explosion roared from the distance!

One of the Heavy Walls he had used to surround the boss shattered violently!

"Mere mortal!"

BOOM—

Before it could finish speaking, Lu Cang immediately raised his hand and patched the Heavy Wall back up.

BOOM!

Another muffled boom came from within the walls!

It was once again covered in countless cracks.

’Oho.’

’That’s pretty impressive. You can actually crack my Heavy Wall, even after I’ve evolved it twice.’

The boss, on the other hand, was even more frustrated.

’I just broke that wall, and you put it back up with a wave of your hand?’

Immediately after.

"Earth and Fire Shattering Heaven (Level 201)."

"Cross-Birth Pillar (Level 201)." 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"Thunderstorm Flash (Level 201)."

"Breathing Wind Swarm (Level 201)."

"Deep Curse Arrow (Level 201)."

...

Lu Cang didn’t recognize this Demon, but regardless, he would first trap it within the three walls and bombard it relentlessly.

’You like sitting on your throne and acting all high and mighty?’

’Then you can stay down there forever.’

If it started moving, it would actually be difficult for Lu Cang to trap it inside the Heavy Walls.

It would require some skill.

But since it was Unmoving...

’Then you’ll have to excuse me.’

BOOM!

The Heavy Wall was blasted to pieces.

However, the instant the Heavy Wall was destroyed, Lu Cang immediately erected a new one to replace it.

Lu Cang, meanwhile, remained in the narrow passage, not advancing into the open altar cavern.

In front of Lu Cang were three thick Heavy Walls.

He left an opening in the walls, but also layered a barrier between them.

From behind these three walls and a barrier, Lu Cang...

...viciously poured damage onto his opponent.

And this boss seemed to have no means of escape, only able to break the Heavy Walls with brute force.

But unfortunately for it...

Lu Cang, with his nearly infinite Magic Power Value, could always erect a new Heavy Wall the instant it broke through.

"Human!"

"You only know how to use such despicable tricks!"

"Let me out, if you have any guts!"

"Weakling!"

"Do you dare to face me one-on-one!"

Lu Cang still didn’t respond to the King Level Demon’s provocations...

’I’ve seen plenty of examples in the stories from my past life where talking to the enemy leads to your own downfall.’

’Speaking of which...’

’This Demon can actually talk, and quite fluently, too.’

’And why is it so damn tough?’

’How is it not dead after all this time?’

’Is it a mechanics boss? Does that mean it will never die if I don’t follow the mechanics? A blood monster...’

’Do I have to drain that Blood Pool I saw earlier?’

’Whatever. I’ll just keep blasting it for a while. If that doesn’t kill it, then I’ll think about the mechanics.’

...

Meanwhile, the King Level Demon trapped within the three walls was also completely baffled.

’How can this human Mage cast so much Magic?’

’Whatever...’

’A Mage’s weakness is their Magic Power. I have such a massive Blood Pool... why should I fear a battle of attrition? The day his Magic Power runs out will be his date of death.’
