Sword God in a World of Magic

DING!

In a sudden burst, a lightning explosion emanated from the pin on Shang's chest, instantly neutralizing the attack.

"I knew it!" transmitted the Mage King, yet he sounded completely composed and unworried.

"By the way, that's why we made a second alteration to the Defender Flag. I can unleash about 50 Spells in two seconds. Let's see how resilient that shield is."

Voice transmissions happened instantaneously, so despite the Mage King speaking several words, hardly a millisecond had elapsed.

At that moment, Shang felt like time was moving in slow motion.

He had intended to use Entropy, but he couldn't locate his opponent, and the attack struck him before he could react.

Even as Shang realized that a lightning shield had blocked the attack, the second and third Spells were already on their way.

Before Shang could process that his shield had been hit twice more, the next two spells struck.

The barrage was so rapid that Shang couldn't keep up with what was happening before the next onslaught began.

The speed was overwhelming!

In less than a second, Shang had been hit by over 20 Spells.

By now, the hue of the barrier had turned pinkish, gradually shifting to red.

However, hardly anyone would notice it.

Perhaps one of the Mage Kings might have observed the change in color, but they would still wait for the Defender Flag to deactivate, as that was how it worked.

Shang could barely manage to glance at the pin on his chest.

Its brightness had already dimmed by over 80%, and he could sense that the shield was perilously thin.

In about 0.2 seconds, the shield would be obliterated.

And then, the next Spell would spell Shang's complete destruction.

Shang's mind raced faster than ever before.

Numerous ideas rushed through his head, only to be dismissed immediately.

Most of them centered around using Entropy.
