Water Mage in the Flame Realm-Chapter 310 - 300: The World Punishes You as Its Representative

Chapter 310: Chapter 300: The World Punishes You as Its Representative

"This... is amazing!"

Andrew looked at the dragon silhouette—or now, it should be called a "dragon form"—and couldn’t hide his astonishment.

Andrew, of course, wasn’t aware of the other two people’s emotional journey last night.

He only heard Capella say, "The two of us can beat you two," and then saw the massive dragon form appear.

The awe-inspiring grandeur and terrifying suppression of that dragon form seemed to transcend Tier Four in everyone’s eyes! But to Andrew, that wasn’t the most important thing.

What truly surprised Andrew was the incredible "synergy" that the two on the other side showed.

"What is happening? Why are these two suddenly so well-coordinated? I didn’t see this at all before." Barbara, standing beside, showed her confusion, furrowing her brow and said, "It’s said that the Saint Son and Saintess of the Magic Guild usually find it difficult to cooperate seamlessly. Reportedly, their route involves developing independently until they are close to a breakthrough to Tier Seven, then begin practicing cooperation..."

Andrew asked upon hearing this, "Near pinnacle of Tier Six, then start practicing cooperation?"

Barbara nodded, "That’s what I’ve heard. Because the practice of cooperation occurs very late, many Saint Sons and Saintesses from the Magic Guild historically encountered huge bottlenecks during their cooperation phase, which they hadn’t faced in their solo cultivation."

Andrew nodded, thinking that those two people on the other side did seem like they would encounter bottlenecks during cooperation, but now they feel entirely different.

One could see Capella and the dragon form standing in tandem, with threads made of Fire of Extinguishing connecting them.

While Yorkshire used magic power to mobilize a large amount of permafrost around the royal court to cover the dragon form, his body also gradually merged with those frozen soils, becoming part of the dragon form.

Seeing Capella and Yorkshire like this, Andrew suddenly thought of Sally and Cook from the duel in Wildfire Town.

In terms of strength, that professional duo under Humboldt’s command and considered as conjoined infants was no longer a concern to the current Andrew.

But the synergy of that duo, even today, was the most synchronized pair Andrew had seen in this Flame Realm! That synergy came from continuous daily interaction and wasn’t innate; it was gradually accumulated.

The synergy between Capella and Yorkshire seemed to have grown overnight, as if from thin air! They looked to be quite comparable to Cook and Sally now; it was truly magical and remarkable.

"However..."

Andrew turned to look at Barbara, and Barbara turned back at the same time. The two exchanged a smile, and in that moment of mutual understanding, they thought: "It’s not just you whose synergy has greatly improved overnight.

We are too!"

The practice of "Water and Fire United" last night allowed Andrew and Barbara’s powers to merge, forming the Water and Fire Yin-Yang fish. In terms of quality and quantity of magic power, this fusion power is definitely invincible in the same tier, even though Capella and Yorkshire now show the dragon form, they are still a bit inferior.

But the fusion and transformation of magic is just a "fruit."

The true "cause"—and also the essence and secret technique of Water and Fire United—actually lies in the words "mutual understanding."

With mutual understanding, their powers naturally merge.

And what in this world is more synchronized than mutual understanding?

Last night’s results of practicing "Water and Fire United" were finally revealed.

Andrew and Barbara exchanged a smile and then... both let go of the intertwined fingers they had been holding.

Andrew stepped into invisible "Water-Traveling Boots," moved like a swimming fish, sidestepped to the left.

Barbara, on the other hand, with splendid flaming wings appearing behind her, moved gracefully like a bird, flew backwards.

Just as the two leapt away—

Rumble, an explosive sound like thunder boomed!

After the dragon form condensed into shape, with Capella flipping her hand to reveal her Dragon Transformation Weapon, the dragon form followed suit with a slicing motion from top to bottom.

And with the dragon form’s motion, a gigantic axe spear appeared in its claws.

The axe alone is about the size of a small mountain, and under the astonished gaze of the onlookers, it almost grazed by the bodies of Andrew and Barbara as they separated to the sides, and heavily smashed down on the spot where they originally stood!

This blow was so heavy, it caused the Eternal Frost Hall, and even the entire royal court to tremble discreetly.

Strong and chaotic shockwaves surged from the point of impact, engulfing the area recklessly.

Andrew was still in the air, unexpectedly blown up such that he couldn’t land for a moment!

He simply went with the wind, drifting back, and after floating a bit further, he finally landed steadily.

At the same time, on the other side, Barbara had also landed.

They seemed to have been forcibly separated by the opponent’s heavy pre-emptive strike, but in reality, while appearing apart, a water and fire Yin Yang fish emerged under each of their feet, one water, one fire, one formless, one tangible.

Once the two Yin Yang fish were formed, they quickly connected head to tail, forming a Water and Fire Tai Chi Diagram.

On the Tai Chi Diagram, there are two crucial positions, which are the two "fish eyes". After Andrew and Barbara landed, they were already silently but firmly standing right on those two "fish eye" positions!

At that moment, Barbara’s body slightly trembled. Earlier, through the fusion of water and fire, she had perceived Andrew’s identity as a Water Mage, and now she even more vividly felt Andrew’s magic power form— 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

Through Andrew, she felt the vast territory and its inhabitants linked to him through the Gate of Enlightenment. Previously, Barbara had only sensed Andrew’s elemental attribute, but now she could finally touch upon Andrew’s Magic Lord side.

Conversely, Andrew, too, for the first time, clearly felt Barbara’s magic power—

Containing one of the Eight Strange Fires, Barbara’s flame magic of Orange Flame Warm Fire, with the doubling enhancement from the already solidified and non-consumable Warm Fire Order, in terms of "quality" was in no way inferior to Andrew’s magic which encompassed water, fire, and ice, and in terms of "quantity" it was even greater than the total magic power of Andrew the Magic Lord! And this was something Andrew hadn’t noticed during last night’s Water and Fire United practice.

Their magic powers, each enough to astonish countless people in this world when taken separately.

After merging into the shape of the water and fire Yin Yang fish, there was no other term but "invincible" to describe it.

Relying on this power alone, without any magic, the two stood firmly on those two fish eyes after landing, no longer affected by the terrifying shockwaves caused by the other side’s giant axe spear smashing down.

Afterwards, the two simultaneously let out a light shout, Andrew’s invisible Water Magic surged out from his body, while vast Orange Flame Warm Fire soared from Barbara’s hand, intertwining, swiftly condensing into a not inferior humanoid form to the dragon form opposite them.

"What, what is that—?!" The present crowd saw the dragon form displayed by Capella and Yorkshire and were shocked and astonished, including top experts like the Female Assassin (King), Dean Charlie, and the Flame Turtle.

At this moment, seeing the humanoid form condensed by Andrew and Barbara, everyone suddenly found: they weren’t shocked or astonished at all. All the waves in their hearts seemed naturally calmed by the presence of the towering humanoid form.

Compared to the dragon form opposite them, this humanoid form condensed by Andrew and Barbara was exceedingly clearer, with an ancient face, no distinct gender, and exuding a sense of stability and serenity, yet incredibly heroic.

If the dragon form opposite brought about a feeling of crushing everything, devouring everything, carrying a heavy, terrifying, chaotic, and frenzied aura, akin to the overall feeling the Flame Realm gave off.

Then the ancient deity condensed by Andrew and Barbara was like a stabilizing needle at sea, meant to restore everything in the Flame Realm to tranquility!

"—Ancient God Series." Andrew and Barbara both thought simultaneously.

After last night’s practice, through "Mutual Understanding", the two reached "Power Fusion", and then very naturally, using this fusion power as a foundation, they initially possessed a "United Magic Series" that could be performed in partnership through this joint state.

The first was the "Water Priestess Series" and "Fire God Blessing Series" that they had already jointly performed in Warm Fire City when resolving Madam Yi Lian’s knot. Each spell in these two series perfectly corresponded to the other, and in fact could be seen as a single magic series.

The second is what the ancient deity before them represents—the "Ancient God Series". It stems from the combination of the "Water Element Series" in the Water God Mark and the "Fire Element Series" in the Warm Fire Order, essentially still considered an elemental lifeform, but seemingly possessing life and even a sort of... divinity.

"Crimson Battle Lance."

Barbara’s chant-like voice sounded at the scene.

Barbara stood firmly on the fish eye of the Yin Yang fish, raised her hand to grab, and vast Orange Flame Warm Fire emerged from her hand, condensing into an ancient-looking battle lance.

At the same time, that ancient god’s right hand grasped, a flaming spear of Orange Flame Warm Fire emerged, no smaller compared to the axe spear in the hand of the dragon form opposite them.

"Shield of Flowing Water."

Andrew also spoke.

A shield formed by invisible Water Magic quietly condensed in his hand.

In the ancient god’s left hand, there also appeared an invisible shield unseen by others!

An ancient god, one spear, one shield, facing that dragon shadow holding a giant black axe spear head-on in this Royal Court—

Isn’t this scene exactly like the vast eastern territories under Warm Fire Commerce Association’s rule, relying on two strategic strongholds (Crimson Battle Lance and Shield of Flowing Fire), facing the Magic Guild in the western world!

This is not merely a conceptual analogy, but through Andrew’s Secret Technique as a Magic Lord, at this moment, the ancient deity in the Royal Court is indeed faintly connected with the vast territories and those two strongholds under the Warm Fire Commerce Association’s rule.
