Chapter 562: 181. Peaceful Nuclear Explosion_3

Having completed this step, Noland Lee turned his attention to the reactor, whose construct value would drop to zero in a matter of seconds.

If the self-destruct process of the reactor couldn’t be interrupted, then perhaps Noland wouldn’t need to consume energy points to deconstruct them.

After all, they would explode anyway, so Noland figure that having him ignite them would have the same outcome.

Noland threw a “Mental Beacon” and a “Psychic Bombardment” at the impostor supervisor’s reactor.

Crackle.

A small spark sprouted from the reactor, but the expected explosion did not occur.

Noland checked the combat information and chuckled helplessly in his mind.

His “Psychic Bombardment” had met its match.

Due to the reactor’s strong energy response, the mental energy burst caused by the “Psychic Bombardment” had little effect, only causing the reactor’s construct value to drop slightly more than it already would have.

Noland wasn’t certain of the principle, but that’s what happened.

With no other options, he decided to stick to using active deconstruction to deconstruct the reactor.

Noland cast his deconstruction technique, silently chanting to ensure a 100% deconstruction of the reactor. His fresh 490,000 energy points were expended in the process.

After a brief moment of disorientation, a large number of deconstruction results appeared in his mind.

Noland closed the system interface and flew at a speed close to the mist threshold without stopping.

Three seconds later, a frightening blue light lit up in the magic vision of the Competition Manager’s office.

The 15 miniature cold nuclear fusion reactors exploded almost simultaneously!

In just a split second, the Mental Beacon hiding in the corner of the office was crushed by the powerful energy storm.

Denise Green and Kalandi, seemingly responding to an invisible summons, came to a halt in unison, looking back at the magic ship more than thirty kilometers away.

Noland stopped flying as well. He expanded his “Magic Shield” to its maximum size, protecting both Denise and Kalandi.

Could the “Magic Shield” withstand the energy shock from the explosion of a nuclear fusion reactor?

Noland wasn’t sure.

But there was no better alternative right now.

The “Magic Shield” was the only shield spell that he had, which offered resistance against all types of damage.

Since Noland didn’t know what type of damage the energy shock from the reactor explosion would cause, he chose to use the “Magic Shield”, which had the most comprehensive resistance.

“Do any of you feel that something’s wrong…” As Kalandi was the wizard on the scene with the highest “Spirit” attribute.

Her spiritual ocean was 180 meters wide, enabling her to accurately sense energy fluctuations within a radius of 1.8 kilometers.

Energy fluctuations at a distance greater than that could be perceived by her as long as they were strong enough. The energy wave of the nuclear fusion reactor’s explosion was clearly among these.

“I think I felt something.” Denise Green pondered:

“It’s very hot and fierce, much more intense than the heat wave filled with the scent of flames… Is this the spell fluctuation of the Pure Light Wizards?”

Kalandi shook her head slightly:

“I don’t think so. The spell fluctuations of the Pure Light Wizards are not so… um… crude. The energy fluctuations in the magic ship remind me of an untamed Fire Elemental Golem… no, this fluctuation is even more violent than an enraged Fire Elemental Golem…”

The reactor exploded near the center of the magic ship, and its force and impact would be absorbed and resisted by the magic ship. With magic metal shielding, the explosion process of the reactor would not be as immediate as that of “Little Boy”.

However, it was only a matter of time before the explosive impact of the reactor spread to areas outside the magic ship.

Just within the few seconds Noland and the others had stopped to watch, a bright strong light scattered from the arched passage, which the Nine-Circles Deep Sea Witch had cracked open.

The metal casing of the entire magic ship was convulsing violently, as if being kneaded repeatedly by an invisible giant hand.

An earth-shattering atomic explosion was about to happen!

Noland Lee knew that they could not escape the impact of the explosion. He had to do everything in his power to prepare for it.

“Denise, Kalandi! You two, stay still and maintain your flying posture!”

Noland Lee roared, activating “Power Burst” and turning into a giant over seven meters tall.

He stretched out his hands and held onto Denise’s torch and Kalandi’s leaves, relying on their flying abilities, to keep himself afloat, preventing himself from falling into the corrosive deep-sea water below.

After that, he hugged the torch and the leaves to his chest, facing his back towards the magical ship.

Theoretically, there should be better solutions.

But the situation was too sudden, and Noland couldn’t think of any perfect plans. He decided to rely on the 36 points of “Tenacity” brought by “Power Burst” and the “Magic Shield” to withstand the explosion.

“Huh~~~” A strong and unruly gust of wind came from behind, scraping across his back and shoulders, causing a burning pain.

“Boom boom…” The dull explosion roared more violently, like countless thunders bursting across the sea surface.

“What’s happening?!”

Kalandi screamed.

She was shocked by Noland’s sudden transformation into a giant. The roaring explosion and powerful winds that followed made her heart tremble with fear.

Denise had been with Noland the longest and had developed a tacit understanding with him.

In less than a third of a second, she understood what Noland’s actions meant from the furious energy fluctuations.

The energy fluctuations from the magic ship seemed to be capable of destroying the world, and Noland was using his giant body and magic shield to protect her and Kalandi!

Denise said something with a sob in her voice, but Noland couldn’t hear her clearly. The roaring wind drowned out her voice.

Just as Noland felt his whole body enveloped by heat and his closed eyes filled with bright light, an extremely ethereal bell sound rang in his ears.

“Ding~~~~~~~”

The heatwave disappeared, the wind stopped, and the strong light in front of him remained but had become incredibly gentle, like bathing in the dawn’s light.

Noland opened his eyes and carefully looked around.

Countless golden magic runes floated in the air, forming groups and dancing gracefully like cheerful notes leaping with the melody.

“What are these runes…”

Noland muttered, slowly releasing his arms and letting go of Denise and Kalandi.

Denise, in the form of a torch, clung to Noland’s right hand and wept against his face. ——The torch appearance was just a special effect of the flight spell and didn’t have the temperature of the flames.

Kalandi, as a leaf in Noland’s left hand, looked around in amazement and exclaimed:

“It’s amazing; this must be the ‘Ring of Tranquility’ of the ‘Pure Light Court,’ a Saint Tier magic spell close to the Star Witch level. Only Light Wizards can cast it. What was that explosion just now? It was so intense and terrifying that it forced the Ten-Ring Pure Light Wizard to cast the ‘Ring of Tranquility’ to suppress it.”

Noland looked back in the direction of the magic ship and took a deep breath.

Daybreak had come.

A bright Dawn Halo had appeared in the dark night, floating above the magic ship.

Countless golden magic runes flew around the Dawn Halo.

A column of light projected from the halo covered the magic ship, absorbing the massive energy generated by the explosion.

The explosive shockwaves inside the magic ship were completely suppressed by the light column from the Dawn Halo. Now, they had stopped expanding and were shrinking rapidly at a visible speed.

In just a short time while Denise was weeping against his face, the energy tide caused by the reactor explosion disappeared, and the Dawn Halo and golden runes summoned by the Light Wizard vanished without a trace.

The dark night returned, a gentle sea breeze blew, and the wave sounds remained, as if nothing had happened at all.
