Chapter 786: A Slight Punishment (First Update)
Chapter 786: A Slight Punishment (First Update)
"Fairy's Radiance!"
Nine Magic Arrays instantly appeared above Xiao's head, and white energy beams ruthlessly struck him.
"It's useless, this kind of energy attack has no effect on me!"
Instead of being alarmed, Xiao was overjoyed when hit by the white energy beams. He maximized his abilities and began to absorb the energy from above, which was even more powerful than nuclear energy.
He had been frustrated that Erik had interrupted his plan to absorb nuclear energy, leaving him with insufficient energy to destroy the human fleet at sea. Now, this much energy was being freely delivered to him.
At this rate, he would only grow stronger.
"Ignorance!"
As if hearing Xiao's inner monologue, Jerry's face twisted into a cold sneer. The energy beam instantly grew ten times thicker.
Xiao could indeed absorb all energy, even a Killing Curse would be absorbed directly into his body without any effect.
However, as a mutant, his body's efficiency in absorbing energy was limited.
Why didn't he directly detonate a nuclear bomb to absorb the energy, but instead built a nuclear submarine to absorb it gradually?
Because the energy released by a nuclear explosion was too powerful for him to absorb all at once.
If he couldn't absorb all the nuclear energy in an instant, the excess would completely destroy his physical body.
Logan and the others couldn't harm Xiao because the energy they generated didn't reach his absorption limit. The same was true for Erik.
But Jerry's Fairy's Radiance was different. It was a pure energy Magic attack that could even injure a Celestial Supreme.
If used at full power, it could destroy a planet in seconds.
Of course, dealing with Xiao didn't require that. Jerry didn't even need to pre-charge the energy; he could instantly cast Fairy's Radiance, drawing energy from the surroundings to attack, which was more than Xiao could handle.
"How is this possible!"
The energy beam suddenly intensified tenfold, and Xiao's originally joyful expression instantly changed. His entire body was then pinned to the ground by the excess energy he couldn't absorb.
"Boom!"
"No!!!"
With a loud explosion, the terrifyingly powerful Xiao gradually dissipated in the energy beams from the nine Magic Arrays, leaving no trace of his existence.
"This is truly Magic."
Seeing Xiao being instantly killed by Jerry without any resistance, and looking at the nine Magic Arrays in the sky with their complex and mysterious patterns, Charles and the others finally understood what Jerry meant by "Magic."
It wasn't an adjective but a noun. Jerry might not be a mutant at all, but a Mage from myth, capable of various forms of Magic!
"Everything is over!"
The revenge target he had been seeking for years, Xiao, was now dead at Jerry's hands. With the obsession gone, the anger in Erik's eyes faded, and his expression became dazed.
"Probably not over yet."
Jerry turned to face the sea and pointed to the warships on both sides of the No-Sail Zone.
The warships from both countries, in perfect unison, turned their cannons to aim at the island where Jerry and the others were.
Charles, hearing this, placed his hand on his temple and began to read the minds of the officers on the warships. His face immediately changed:
"They both received orders from their superiors to bury all of us mutants here, regardless of friend or foe!"
Charles indeed didn't trust human governments much, but he never expected that while they were working hard to help humans avoid a nuclear war, humans were planning to eliminate them all.
Morah heard this and quickly ran to the aircraft wreckage to use the communication device inside to contact headquarters. She informed them that the enemies had all been defeated and there was no need to fire any more artillery.
However, the response she received was that they would become heroes who prevented a nuclear war after they died, and the call was then hung up.
"Charles, it looks like we've been betrayed by the Cia."
Erik's eyes were once again filled with anger, but this time the target was not Xiao, but the humans on the warships ahead.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Before Charles could respond, the warships opened fire in unison. Thousands of shells, capable of turning the small island into dust, flew toward them simultaneously.
Faced with the barrage of shells, Jerry didn't act because Erik had already activated his ability.
Don't think that Erik was weak just because Xiao defeated him with one move. In reality, he was one of the most powerful mutants in the world, especially when it came to human weapons.
No matter how powerful a shell, even a nuclear bomb, it would still contain metal. And as long as it contained metal, Erik could control it.
So, the moment Erik extended his hand, the flying shells were immediately suspended in mid-air.
"I think it's time to give them a lesson."
Erik's hand turned, and all the shells instantly changed direction, aiming precisely at the warships on the sea.
Seeing this, Charles quickly spoke up to stop him:
"Erik, calm down. They are just soldiers following orders. They might not even know who we are. The ones who ordered the attack on us are not them."
Hearing Charles' words, Erik's expression softened somewhat.
At this moment, Erik hadn't been brainwashed by Xiao's words and had just experienced a brush with death. His thoughts hadn't become as extreme yet, and he could still listen to Charles.
However, deep down, he didn't really sympathize with the soldiers. Just because soldiers followed orders to kill didn't mean they were without guilt.
So, he turned his gaze to Jerry.
Jerry was the most powerful person here. When his and Charles' views conflicted, Jerry's opinion was crucial.
"You both make valid points, but killing these people won't change anything. However, it is necessary to give them a warning for their attack."
Jerry thought for a moment and pointed his hand at the sky.
A blue Magic beam shot out and, at the speed of light, passed through all the shells suspended in the air and through every warship of the two nations on the sea.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Everything the blue Magic beam pierced through was transformed.
The deadly shells turned into balloons with various funny emoticons, and the steel warships, built with countless funds, turned into rickety wooden boats.
The soldiers and generals who had been wearing naval uniforms on the wooden boats were now left in only their underwear, shivering in confusion.
"This is really Magic!"
Seeing the scene on the sea, Raven and the others, who had been extremely angry, were both amazed by Jerry's magic and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Alright, let's head back."
After using a transformation spell to give them a light punishment, Jerry waved his hand and opened a Spatial Gateway to Charles' private castle.
