Chapter 689: 220. Artificial Lightning Disaster_2
“If I could master the meditation method of absorbing ice and wind magic power, this snow mountain would be a good ce for me to absorb magic power.”
Nnd Lee sighed quietly as he faced the chilling wind and snow:
“However, I bought this snow mountain not just to absorb magic power. If the System hadn’t said that it was the outlet of the ‘Dragon Tooth Reservoir,’ I wouldn’t have bought this snow mountain that has already been mined once for its ore resources.”
Nnd Lee hadn’t forgotten the information he had gained about the snow mountain through deconstruction.
Including the Snow Mountain Ind No. 1 underneath him, all three snow mountain inds in the Suman Archipgo were outlets of the ‘Dragon Tooth Reservoir.’
Since they were outlets, there should be something like “pipelines” as well.
Nnd Lee flew circles around the mountaintop amidst the wind and snow, finding nothing but white snow, frosts, and clouds blocking the sunlight.
Seeing the increasingly high stacks of “Cold Erosion” on his panel, Nnd Lee gave up on searching for the “outlet” and started testing the “Thundercloud Technique.”
With the cover of wind and snow, the magic energy fluctuation of the “Thundercloud Technique” would be concealed, so Nnd didn’t need to worry about being detected by the magic outpost.
He took out the Elemental Energy Reactor, drew 120 points of thunder and lightning energy from it, and cast the “Thundercloud Technique.”<div>
Originally in spherical shape, the three energy balls merged under the guidance of the spell, forming a small mass of dark clouds faintly shing with lightning.
[System Message:]
[You have sessfully cast the “Thundercloud Technique.”]
[You have umted 120 points of thunder and lightning energy in the thundercloud.]
[Your Energy Points will be reduced by 12 points per hour until all the thunder and lightning energy in the thundercloud is released.]
Nnd Lee used his intention to control the small thundercloud in front of him to move away from himself.
The thundercloud was soon covered by the howling wind and snow.
Nnd Lee found that his control over the thundercloud had decreased significantly when he couldn’t see it.
He could only use the energy perception ability brought by his “Spirit” to vaguely lock the position of the thundercloud.
When the distance between the thundercloud and him exceeded 400 meters, locating the thundercloud became increasingly difficult. He could only tell the general direction of the thundercloud rtive to himself.
Nnd Lee summoned the thundercloud back, threw a “Mental Beacon” at it, and then controlled the thundercloud to enter the wind and snow once again.
This time, his control over the thundercloud became much more urate.
With the help of the “Mental Beacon,” he could real-time locate the position of the thundercloud and move it to the designated position urately.
Nnd Lee opened the spell interface of the “Mental Beacon” in his mind and threw a “Mind View” at the beacon on the thundercloud.
His vision was filled with magic vision of swirling snowkes and clouds, asionally interspersed with thin blue lightning streaks.
“This is the view from the thundercloud. With the ‘Mental Beacon’ + ‘Mind View’ spellbination, I can control the thundercloud even in blind spots where my body can’t see.”
Nnd Lee nodded slowly, starting to test the maximum distance he could control the thundercloud.
The area on the top of the snow mountain was notrge, with the widest ce not exceeding 5 kilometers.
Nnd Lee and the thundercloud stood at the two ends of the mountaintop, with swirling snow in the cold wind between them.<div>
Over such a short distance, Nnd Lee’s control over the thundercloud did not change.
Nnd Lee spected that as long as the straight-line distance between him and the thundercloud did not exceed the “Mental Beacon”‘s maximum sensing range, which was 109 kilometers, the connection between him and the thundercloud would not be interrupted.
The only awkward thing was that after he issued an order, he had to wait 9.2 seconds before the thundercloud would start moving. This was the response dy caused by the low level of his Shaping Magic.
In other words, if he wanted to control the thundercloud tounch lightning attacks at the enemy, he would first have to calcte the enemy’s exact position 9.2 secondster.<div>
Otherwise, unless the enemy had a natural tendency to attract lightning, the straightforward lightning would likely miss its target.
If there was also a charging or casting time forunching the lightning, it would make it even more difficult to attack the enemy with the thundercloud.
Nnd Lee located a protruding rock on the ground in his magic vision and ordered the thundercloud tounch lightning at it.
After waiting 9.2 seconds, a crackling roar erupted from the thundercloud, and a bright blue lightning bolt shot towards the rock Nnd Lee had pointed at, stirring up snowkes and shattered stones.
Nnd Lee raised an eyebrow and gave a nod of approval to the thundercloud.
The process ofunching lightning was instantaneous, without any casting time, and the lightning’s flight speed was extremely fast, reaching the rock almost instantly from the thundercloud.
Nnd Lee located his position in the magic vision and issued another order for the thundercloud tounch lightning.
After 9.2 seconds, a bright blue lightning bolt pierced throughyers of clouds and struck Nnd Lee’s shield with precision.
The sound of lightning hitting its target echoed in Nnd Lee’s ears, and a system message appeared in his mind:
[You have been attacked by the “Thundercloud.”]
[You have taken 50 points of lightning energy damage.]
[Your “Magic Shield (Level 100)” has a 50% lightning damage resistance, shield value is reduced by 25 points.]
The saying “loud thunder, little rain” applies to the lightningunched by the thundercloud.<div>
It’s okay if the damage is low, it can be replenished with the thunder and lightning energy generated by the Elemental Energy Reactor.
Nnd Lee called back the thundercloud, hovering it in front of him.
He took out the Elemental Energy Reactor, drew clumps of thunder and lightning energy from it, and stuffed them all into the thundercloud.
The size of the thundercloud gradually increased, transforming into a bona fide dark cloud.
When the “Construct Value” of the Elemental Energy Reactor decreased by 50 points, Nnd Lee stopped its operation.
