《A Future Destroyed - A Post-Modern Fantasy LitRPG》Chapter 17 - Challenge Continued

The buzzer sounded and the monitor changed to display what the next wave would contain.

Wave 7

25 Hobgoblins

20 Bugbears

20 Orcs

Joriya closed his eyes and focused on the darkness mana, as he looked at the instant-cast spell list he was given for his levels. [Dark Bolt], [Dark Ray], [Sleep], and [Weaken] were the four spells available for casting of Dark Magic at skill level 20. Using Mana Manipulation, he spread a layer of [Weaken] and a layer of [Sleep] around his circle as the monsters were spawned and marched their way in. As they stumbled, Joriya alternated between [Dark Bolt] and [Dark Ray], which seemed to be much higher and lower frequencies of the Light spells. There was a chime as the wave cleared along with the buzzer blare.

You have learned the Magic Skill: Spread Effect.

Wave 8

25 Bugbears

25 Orcs

15 Ogres

He smiled to himself as he canceled the effects of the [Sleep] and [Weaken] zones, and pulled up the Water Magic, getting a feeling for it. He glanced at the default spells that the magic granted and snorted softly. Seriously? Water is supposed to be considered weak? he thought as he pulled up spell formulas for [Water Pump], [Water Globe], [Ice Spike] and [Ice Wall]. He quickly mixed [Water Pump] and [Ice Spike] together, getting a system chime.

You have discovered the Level 20 Water Magic Spell: [Glacial Blast].

He pumped out some water onto the floor outside his area, grinning as the Dungeon spawned a 'Caution: Wet Floor' sign. The Bugbears he dispatched with [Glacial Blast], the Ocs with [Ice Spikes], and he decided to be a bit cruel to the Ogres, casting [Water Globe] which summoned a series of spheres of water around their heads, and then using [Ice Wall] to solidify the exteriors of the spheres, preventing them from easily escaping their drowning. After about three minutes, the buzzer sounded, and the board changed again.

Wave 9

30 Orcs

20 Ogres (Physical)

10 Ogres (Magical)

15 Trolls

Oh, fuck... Magical monsters!? He really wants to keep me from winning that bet, doesn't he? Joriya blinked and felt sweat starting to gather on his brow. Ah, fuck it! Space magic time. If he wants to make things harder, let's see these Ogres survive Portal Games! He pushed out his mana, gathering it externally to cast modified magics across the entirety of the floor outside his circle and then mirrored it on the ceiling so that the portal would open under their feet, and drop them into a never-ending fall until he cut the mana feed.

When the monsters spawned in, he triggered the trap, and after they fell through the floor about fifty times, he cut it off, watching them splatter from having reached terminal velocity. He coughed up some blood from doing internal damage to himself from the amount of mana he expended. He groaned and focused on casting [Heal] and [Cleanse] on himself as his mana regenerated after the buzzer blared.

Wave 10

50 Orcs

25 Ogres (Physical)

15 Ogres (Magical)

20 Trolls

Well, spells are just arcane coding, and as I proved with [Glacial Blast], the coding is easily modified. I wonder how accurate the Daniel Black novels were in regards to realistic Mana usage... Eh, let's try it with Force Magic... he thought as he created a sphere of pure Force Magic in the [Force Shield] spell around his center zone. He then created spinning [Force Blade] spells, infused them with ki to a dangerous saturation, and launched them rapidly as they became unstable.

The explosion that occurred completely wiped out everything outside of his barrier, meanwhile he had to spend a half a minute regaining his own senses from the backlash of the improperly modified spells and ki. He groaned and again relied on [Heal] and [Cleanse].

Wave 11

40 Ogres (Physical)

25 Ogres (Magical)

20 Trolls

1 Lich

By the time he had finished going over the information provided by the notification, and his head had stopped pounding, the monsters had already spawned, with the magical ogres and lich were preparing to pelt his [Force Shield] with their magics. With his left hand, he gathered up ki energy for a blast at the ogre mages and charging a [Light Ray] in his right hand, which he planned to use on the lich. After his shield cracked, he dispelled it before it could shatter and cause a chance of backlash, then quickly fired the ray at the lich, vaporizing its bones and eliminating it while the Ki Blast arched across the room to slam into the ogres from the side.

He used both Fire Mana and Ki to empower his Level 10 [Fire Breath] spell, basically upgrading it to the equivalence of [Dragon Breath], which shot out and roasted the trolls and caused the physical ogres to leap out of the way. He then used Force Blades and Ice Spikes to hit the critical spots, disabling and eventually bleeding out the remaining of the ogres. The buzzer signaled the end of the Wave and the changing of the board.

Wave 12

30 Ogres (Physical)

30 Ogres (Magical)

30 Trolls

15 Vampires

2 Lich

Crap, Vampires... Okay, well, hopefully these are the ones with Ultraviolet Fatality in their DNA and not the Nanobot or Sparkly Variety... he thought as he pulled up [Light Ball] and tweeked its output to be nearly completely Ultraviolet, before tossing it to orbit in the air outside his fort, which he has no intention of leaving without a true fight. He also prepared twin beams of [Light Ray] to release immediately upon the liches when they spawned.

As soon as the wave spawned, the vampires screamed and burst into flames, which leaped onto the trolls, who went up like kindling as well. Joriya released the [Light Ray] into the skulls of the liches, making them shatter and collapse into piles of bones. He then released the [Light Ray]s and sent out an uncompressed ki beam, pushing the charging ogres back as he used [Earth Spike] to arrest the rest of them, impaling them with their own momentum. He then used a focused [Force Blade] to finish them off. The buzzer sounded as he was starting to feel mentally fatigued from all the mental gymnastics he had been doing.

Wave 13

50 Ogres (Physical)

40 Ogres (Magical)

40 Trolls

30 Vampires

20 Wights

10 Skeleton Mages

5 Lich

God damn it, it just keeps getting harder... Skeleton fucking mages and paralytic wights, with a total of five fucking liches? This seriously wouldn't be easy... Joriya threw up [Force Shield] and [Mana Barrier], threw out a second spiraling ultraviolet light sphere, and pumped almost three thousand mana into each of the barriers before focusing on regenerating his mana, smiling as the vampires burned some of the trolls. He compressed his ki in his throat as he focused on overcharging [Fire Breath], and just before he felt like he would lose control, he merged the ki with the breath, sending it roaring out of the shields in a huge wave, instantly igniting the floor as it passed, clinging visciously to the things it connected with, reducing them to ashes quickly.

As the liches focused on raising the dead, he countered them with [Light Ray], and then slammed his foot down, casting [Consecrate] and [Holy Ground], spreading it across the entirety of the floor making the remaining wights and skeleton mages freeze up and catch holy fire from the healing effect of [Holy Ground], which was amplified by the [Consecrate]d ground. Joriya stumbled as a wave of dizziness passed over him from mana overuse as the buzzer sounded once again.
