Reincarnated Hero System-Chapter 184 Elemental Shield

As for Evan, he sent skills and magic flying all over the place, while taking care not to hit his allies. With each swing of his sword, either an aura slash was sent out, or a blade cannon was launched in the direction of the incoming enemies.

"These guys are really coming in waves."

[The goddess 'Artemisia' says you should use this to practice for the 'Tower of Trials' as you would face similar waves of monsters there.]

"Gee, thanks.

Flame grenade. Fire splash. Spiral flames."

Each time his lips moved, his arms pointed in a certain direction as he unleashed a spell in that direction, burning the enemies there to crisp.

He then switched to lightning magic shot towards the incoming wave of monsters, courtesy of the dozen or so fire and lightning-type rift mages behind them.

He jumped into the wave of monsters, causing them to all turn their fangs and claws in his direction with the rift mages launching elemental magic towards him. 𝘧𝒓e𝑒𝑤e𝙗𝚗o𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝐜𝐨ｍ

The young hero dodged most of the attacks, swinging his sword to stop the ones he could not and occasionally using his hand to catch the arms and legs of the monsters, squeezing them tightly and breaking their bones with his superior strength.

The newly appearing rift mages all turned their attention towards him, ordering the summoned monsters to run after him as they waved their staves and summoned more monsters, ranging from wolves to orcs and goblins.

Evan increased his speed, running down the corridor with the monsters hot on his heels as he sped towards the end of the wide corridor, towards the large space he could see there.

Although it was a dungeon, the mansion of the damned was called a 'Mansion' for a reason, as one could sometimes find long hallways with locked doors on each side, or large halls/ballrooms with chandeliers hanging from the ceilings.

Evan had encountered one of such ballrooms at the end of the corridor he was initially in, with the monsters that were originally there and the ones that were chasing him all crying out as they charged toward him. f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶

Some water-type rift mages who joined the fray, teleported behind him and waved their staves towards him, at the same time that the lightning rift mages teleported in front of him and did the same.

'Oy! These bastards are ganging up on me!'

As soon as Evan thought that, the water-type rift mages created balls of water that released pressurized streams of water towards him, at the same time that the lightning types launched balls of destructive lightning toward him

"Elemental Shield!"

"KUEE??!!!"

One of the rift mages cried out in shock as it saw a familiar golden spherical shield of lightning-infused magic energy surround Evan's body just in time for the combination attacks to hit.

The lightning discharge from the combination of water and lightning magic spells was blocked by the elemental shield, leaving Evan who was surrounded by the omnidirectional shield unscathed.

Perhaps seeing that their combination attack did not work, the rift mages waved their arms and commanded the summoned monsters who begrudgingly charged toward Evan.

Sadly, the physical attacks of the summoned monsters who were strong enough to brave the lightning-charged water on the floor could barely dent the shield. In fact, the monsters close to him could barely move due to paralysis caused by the sheer amount of lightning aura that spread out from the shield.

The elemental attacks of the lightning-type rift mages were as good as useless, as the elemental shield provided him with near immunity to lightning.

As for the fire types' magic attacks, although they were effective, they were far from being able to destroy the shield immediately.

Meanwhile, Evan who was inside the shield was going through the skill's description once more as he tossed his sword inside his inventory.

|Elemental Shield;

Type Rare Active Skill:

Effect;

Allows the user to temporarily generate a shield of elemental energy which is almost immune to whatever element it is imbued with and grants increased defence against physical type attacks. The shield also applies an elemental aura of their affinity around them as long as it is active.

The shield's ability to absorb damage depends on how much energy is used to generate the shield, with higher energy resulting in higher damage absorption.

The user can also choose to make the shield explode and release a burst of elemental energy that damages anything in the vicinity.

Restriction: As the generated shield is elemental in nature, it may be more vulnerable to opposing elements and certain elemental reactions. |

'Since I'm using a lightning-type shield now, it'd be bad if I get hit by ice and fire, huh?'

He looked up to see the shield beginning to crack in various places, with more cracks spreading out with each fireball, bolt or spear launched by the fire-type rift mages.

Seeing another Level up notification appear in front of him, Evan checked his status board and saw his new level and saw it sitting at 129.

'Pride is probably going wild out there on those other rift mages. There might even be others coming from the other end of the corridor.

Oh well, she can handle it.

Now let's recreate that spell Jenson showed me that one time.'

Taking a deep breath, he closed his eyes and activated the ice magic skill for the first time as his breaths turned frosty and his fingers started getting covered by ice.

Streams of energy from the atmosphere swirled around his body as he began to visualize the energy freezing.

It was a bit rough as he did not have a magic catalyst with him but Evan could not care less as it took his all to keep the spell under his control while channelling energy towards his shield to keep it active.

'Kayla, tell the others to take distance.

A lot of distance.'

He sent transmitted his thoughts to his contract spirit through their connection as he wildly circulated his internal energy, with his blessing of destruction synergizing with the destructive energy circuit within his body.

The rift mages, on the other hand, sensed the building-up energy and began to cast another combination magic spell, intending on destroying both his shield and him instantly.

They cried out in strange voices as their energies began weaving together to create a complex spell formation that would make the battle mages of some small countries cry out in shock.

At the same time, Evan took a deep breath and began chanting in a low voice.
