Wizard: Stronger through Marriage Chapter 1190 - 550: Crystal Detonation Curbing the Insect Catastrophe (2)
Previously on Wizard: Stronger through Marriage...
As the last rune was etched onto the surface of the crystal, the deep blue stone began to tremble violently, simultaneously emitting subtle and dense high-frequency resonant waves invisible to the naked eye, sweeping through the surrounding air like countless tiny blade edges, causing air molecules to oscillate and produce a crisp, sharp sound.
These sounds pierced through the night, with an eerie sense of deterrence that made the guards in the camp stop their actions and unconsciously hold their breath and listen closely.
Reina slowly opened her eyes, the resolve in her made the fatigue on her face vanish.
"I have completed the transformation, this is our only chance to counterattack the insect swarm."
Her tone was firm, exceedingly calm.
"As long as we deploy this high-frequency resonator into the core area of the swarm, once they consume it, it will trigger intense internal vibrations, causing them to collapse and perish."
David nodded; his gaze was sharp as a blade, appearing even more stern in the reflection of the deep blue flames.
He swiftly led a group of elite guards to form an escort team, ensuring the lethal weapon was safely transported to the edge of the fractured space front line — an area still teeming with parasitic spores and tentacles, one of the swarm’s most dangerous regions ready to strike.
Along the way, gale-force snowstorms mixed with a strong stench rushed towards them, each step accompanied by the sound of cracking ice echoing across the wilderness.
The soldiers gripped their weapons tightly, fully armed but their faces still filled with anxiety, knowing full well the unpredictable and more destructive battle that awaited them.
Upon arrival at the designated location, the group formed a semicircular formation, cautiously placing the divine remains’ high-frequency resonator that had been transformed and enhanced by Reina.
The device seemed to gradually disturb the spatial structure of the surrounding environment, the clouds above slightly distorted and deformed, amplifying a sense of oppression and even causing a brief moment of atmospheric freezing — like time being disrupted, it’s unusually eerie!
"Begin the lure!"
David whispered hoarsely as he once again employed basic dimension folding skills, traversing dimensions to dodge incoming parasitic tentacles and spore attacks, simultaneously reinforcing shield barriers with the power of flame, buying precious time for his teammates on the perimeter!
As the resonator initiated, the high-frequency pulses rapidly spread, inducing a chain of air and spatial molecule vibrations.
Not far away, as countless creatures danced and gnawed at the void structure, they suddenly converged on this source, swarming to devour those ominous stones glowing deep blue.
The entire process was akin to a demon hunting down prey, reminiscent of an apocalyptic magic array’s creepy opening!
At the moment of engulfment by the swarm, the high-frequency resonance effect reached its peak, a series of violent shockwaves accompanied by a piercing shattering note burst forth!
The parasitic appendages tangled and intertwined, instantly collapsing and shattering, countless tiny fragments scattering in all directions like torrents, tearing apart the dark devouring scene into a desolate void!
However, just as the light of victory began to appear, people were horrified to discover: cracks appeared and continually expanded on the surface of the divine remains crystal used as the weapon’s core, each resembling the tearing of life veins, chilling and horrifying...
Zelros was shocked pale, shouting: "Unable to withstand such massive energy backlash! If it completely breaks, we could face a disaster even more terrifying than the void-worms!"
Amy immediately began spellcasting to stabilize the remaining structure, using pure and holy magic power to wrap and freeze the damaged area.
Yet despite this, she could only barely slow the deterioration, because the chaotic element injected from the abyssal spring was too vast and complex, beyond the manageable scope for a mortal wizard!
David furrowed his brows deeply; his whole body heated instantly, amplifying the flame with the Frost Wolf Bloodline to drive the soul’s willpower forcefully suppressing the spread of mutation.
He softly chanted special clan spells, using a mental link to solidify the entire defensive network, unwilling to see the arrival of another sacrifice...
The surrounding world seemed to take notice of this change: the sky clouds continued to expand tumultuously, while the falling snowflakes stopped intermittently due to spatial distortion, contrasting the tremor and sway of the great tree pillars, forming a silent opposition;
The earth lightly quivered, as if facing the silence before the apocalypse’s judgment night; everyone in the camp had pale faces yet erupted with the fiercest hope of life, building ironclad vows with blood and belief to guard the future...
Long gazes fixed on the stone that had already begun to emit a crisis red glow, gradually intensifying with signs of transformation, none could ignore that it stood perilously close to complete collapse...
Though the operation successfully obliterated a large number of void-tainted insects, the price of using the final killing move was equally devastating, also setting the stage for even greater challenges to come...
Warriors of the Star Pupil Race exchanged glances, understanding that tonight was merely a brief respite, more critical tests had yet to be concluded.
They must press on to delve deeper into the dangerous relics’ secrets and uncover how to resolve the impending disaster completely spiraling out of control!
In the far north, the cold wind continued to howl through the camp, snow flying everywhere, encasing the area in a heavy silver-gray curtain.
Despite the shockwaves from the divine remains crystal’s self-detonation earlier, the ancient holy land remained shrouded in a murderous atmosphere.
Everyone’s faces were marked by fatigue and tension, yet more was vigilance and unease.
David stood quietly at the tent’s entrance, the deep blue flame continued to dance around him, fierce yet unextinguished.
He gazed into the distance, inhaling the biting cold as he sensed an unusual fluctuation emerging from deeply within his bloodline and spirit.
This fluctuation was unlike the aftermath of extreme combat, but resonated with a mysterious abyss breath.
The sky was shrouded in thick clouds, almost blotting out all starlight, leaving just a few faint stars twinkling.
Swaying snowflakes scattered chaotically in the wind, each reflecting a deep blue cold light, like fragments of shattered mirrors suspended in the night sky, echoing with ice crystals on the ground.
The entire world seemed wrapped in this ominous premonition, silently announcing the approaching new threat.
At this moment, a slight tremor came from within the tent — the specific frequency of waves when the secret communication technique was activated.
"Liliana?"
Zelros suddenly turned, asking in a rough but steady voice, standing beside the altar, the ancient rune stone slab emitting a faint glow, pulsing slowly like a waking giant rock.
Amy paused her praying action, her gaze soft yet full of concern: "It’s her message."
Reina clenched her dual blades, stepping out from the shadows, her determination on her face could not conceal the deep-seated anxiety in her eyes.
"Quick, connect her, let her speak."
David strode into the tent, seeing Liliana seated at the center of the altar’s square magic array — draped in a silver-white robe, her silver hair cascading smoothly over her shoulders, her face gaunt yet displaying an unusual calm and solemness.
Her hands lightly touched her chest, where faint blue lines were flickering with weak ripples, one of the mysterious power sources within her — "Abyssal Badge."
"David, you... must alert immediately."
Liliana had just begun to speak, a chill emanated from her fingertips, slicing through the air like ice blades, "My badge... has resonated abnormally with a region in the far north ice world here."
Upon hearing this, everyone was slightly surprised, Zelros frowned: "Resonance? What kind of omen is this?"
"It indicates," Amy softly explained, "the dark power from the abyss is quietly infiltrating, establishing connection with the real world.
Moreover, this power does not exist independently but is cooperating with the ’Observers’ from shadow forces."
Reina bit her lip, saying: "Observers... those Great Power from the Otherworld, manipulating spatial fault organisms? Have they already deepened their conspiracy to infiltrate our strongest defenses?"
David watched Liliana, he could feel the hidden urgency in her words, not just fear, but an important message desperately trying to be conveyed.
