Chapter 1070: Power of The Void: Great Void Merging



As Izroth's sword approached the Dark Squall member, he was greeted by a few alerts from the system.

Swoosh!

Right when Izroth's Sword of the Storm was about to strike his assailant's dagger, something baffling happened.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Zeeeut! Phhhtk!

The assailant's eyes widened in shock as he tried to comprehend what had just happened. One moment, his dagger was about to collide with Izroth's sword. The next, his movements had come to a complete halt, and the world around him seemed to come to a standstill.

In the blink of an eye, the Dark Squall member's body started to dissipate into countless particles before drifting into the air. He perished not even comprehending how he died!

'As I thought, the effect of void damage cannot be compared to the common elements found in the Mortal Realm.'

[Battle Alert: Dark Squall Member, Storm Three has been affected by <<Nullify»>![]

[Battle Alert: For the next 10 seconds, your attacks will ignore everything but your target! [System Alert: Congratulations, you have defeated Dark Squall Member, Storm Three! [System Alert: Your Contribution Points has increased by 55! [Total: 46,689.54]

With Great Void Merging active, Izroth was able to cut down the Dark Squall member with a single swing of his sword!

Based on the amount of contribution points he received and his own observation, Izroth placed the average strength of a Dark Squall member at the level of a War Brigade Captain. Of course, given the special support they received from the Windstorm family, in reality, they were actually a step above the average War Brigade Captain.

Nevertheless, dealing with someone at that level using a basic sword strike provided a glimpse into just how domineering the Great Void Merging could be!

In RML, each elemental damage had a special effect, such as Burn for the fire element or Agony for the dark element. However, each of these elemental effects required one to successfully land a hit on their target.

For the void effect; however, there was no such restriction. So long as one was the target, there was automatically a chance that they would be affected by the void element's unique effect, Nullify.

Nullify allowed the user to ignore all things but their target for ten seconds. This meant that things like defense, magic barriers, armor-for ten seconds, it was all rendered utterly useless!

Seeing their comrade cut down effortlessly before their eyes, the other members of Dark Squall, who charged forward as the vanguard, immediately adjusted their tactics.

In terms of strength, with a few special exceptions like the Dark Squall Leader Azio Windstorm, the members of Dark Squall were not that far apart from one another. Therefore, they understood that if they continued to charge forward recklessly, their fate would turn out the same as Storm Three.

The three remaining Dark Squall members who initially dashed toward Izroth had changed their course and began to retreat in three different directions. Their tactic was simple- momentarily divide Izroth's attention and create a window of opportunity for the other Dark Squall members.

One of the Dark Squall members glanced back to confirm Izroth's position. But, when he saw that no one was there, his eyes widened in shock.

"Impossible! No one should be able to hide while trapped in the Suppressing Squall Array...!" The Dark Squall member said to himself.

"Didn't you want to attack me? Where are you running off to in such a hurry?" Izroth's voice sounded from directly next to the Dark Squall member.

"?!" The Dark Squall member felt a terrifying chill run down his spine as that voice entered his

ears.

He had been trained by the Windstorm family to the brink of death day after day and underwent countless battles to hone his senses. It was to the point that even if someone used a high-ranking stealth skill, he would be able to detect them. However, somehow, this person was able to not only avoid his sense of perception but also move up next to him without the slightest change to his immediate surroundings.

"Except for that man, even the most monstrous geniuses of our Tempest kingdom should not be able to display this level of strength under the effects of the Suppressing Squall Array. Is he hiding some kind of magic item that counteracts the effects of the magic formation?" Azio

thought to himself.

Bzzzt! Crrrrackle!

Azio held their hand out as a magnificent spear appeared in his grip.

ROOOOOOAR!

When Azio grabbed the spear, it roared and released the cry of a mighty beast. At the same time, several crashing waves of lightning expanded outward in every direction with Azio at its

center.

Swoosh!

Azio swept his spear to the side with a cold look in his eyes, causing a deep cut in the earth

next to him.

"It looks like I will have to personally step in to handle this matter. Hmph, useless trash. What did the Windstorm family even invest in you for?" Azio scoffed.

"Gah!" A Dark Squall member yelled as he fell to the ground motionlessly, his body turning

into countless particles.

'It's a shame. I was hoping to get a chance to test things out properly. As I thought, it feels like a waste. Still, I suppose, at the very least, I was able to experience the effects for myself. Shall I end things here?'

In just five seconds, Izroth eliminated all twenty members of Dark Squall. Now, Azio was the only one left standing.

Azio glared at Izroth and pointed his spear forward. So what if he took down the members of Dark Squall? At the end of the day, those he brought with him were mere servants of the Windstorm family. How could they compare to someone like him who held the Windstorm

name?

"To take down the Dark Squall Squad with so little effort, I can see why my nephew lost to

you. But, if you think that I-"

"Тар.

Izroth returned his Sword of the Storm to its sheath as he emerged behind Azio.

At the same time, a thin red line formed around Azio's neck.

"Sword Arts: Four Steps of Death-Death In One Step."

[System Alert: Congratulations, you have defeated Dark Squall Leader, Azio Windstorm!

[System Alert: Your Contribution Points has increased by 750! [Total: 48,484.54]
