At that moment, the school board members also looked at Angers.
"Hehe, since that's the case, it's time for me to warm up too."
Angers chuckled as he looked at Beowulf, his aged eyes burning with a fighting spirit even more intense than the thunder outside.
Chapter 236 Time Zero vs. Beowulf
Almost the instant Angers finished speaking, the atmosphere in the entire conference room suddenly froze.
Streaks of blue-purple lightning instantly filled the entire conference room, connecting all the spaces like a spiderweb. A closer look revealed the lightning's incredibly precise trajectories; it bypassed the other board members present, passing right past them, almost grazing their eyes and brows. Had they been any closer, they would have been struck by these powerful bolts, and even if they survived, they would have been severely injured.
With a cold snort from Beowulf, all the lightning bolts converged towards Angers, who was at the end of the long table in the conference room. As the blue-purple lightning bolts converged on Angers, they transformed into a long spear condensed from lightning.
The thunderous roar of the lightning bolts echoed as they reached Angers. At that moment, the timid would be completely stunned, as if it were a judgment by thunder. Even an A-level hybrid would feel a sense of mental collapse in the face of such a powerful attack.
However, just as the spear formed from blue-purple lightning was about to pierce Angers, the old man's white hair was blown back by the wind, allowing everyone present to see his face clearly. His face showed no fear, not even panic, only a playful composure.
A snapping sound seemed to echo in the void. Everyone present was shocked, for they discovered that this spacetime had changed. Everything had become extremely slow, like a slow-motion scene in a movie. They could even see the fine arcs of electricity shooting out from the tips of the purple lightning bolts, like tiny tentacles. Not only had everything slowed down, but it had also been magnified countless times.
The other board members immediately realized that Angers had fully activated his Word of Power, Time Zero. Although this Word of Power didn't have a high serial number, it was probably the most difficult to understand among known Words of Power. According to the theory of Words of Power, all Words of Power are achieved by controlling some kind of element, and there is no element of time among elements. However, the Time Zero that Angers had cast seemed to be able to directly manipulate time. When this Word of Power was activated, it could establish an unimaginable field centered on the caster. Within this field, the flow of time would become very slow, while the caster would move at a normal speed. Therefore, to outsiders, the caster's speed seemed to have increased several times, or even dozens of times, out of thin air.
Because the caster is always at the very center of this domain, the power of this word can be seen as having no boundaries for the caster. However, when fully activated, it places a huge burden on the caster, and can often only be maintained for a few seconds during the burst. But for a top-notch assassin, let alone a few seconds, even a second is enough to kill the opponent hundreds or thousands of times.
Similarly, this Word of Power is equivalent to the Word of Power of an assassin. If used properly, its burst speed can reach hundreds of times that of a normal person in an instant. When it bursts to its extreme, the person looks more like someone who can teleport.
However, the origin of this word of power remains unknown, as its discoverer has no dragon bloodline and could not directly calculate the process of its release. Instead, it was derived mathematically. It is said that monks in the Himalayas can acquire mysterious abilities through practice, also known as the Wheel of Time. This ability can manipulate the flow of time, but so far there is no clear evidence to prove the relationship between the Wheel of Time and time zero. However, Euclid once said that zero is the gate to the void, the beginning, and also the end, which is a profound metaphor.
As the spear made of lightning hurtled towards them, seemingly about to strike Angers, it also entered Angers' domain. The others were also enveloped within Angers' domain, which is why the spear's speed appeared to slow down considerably.
However, what made the board members breathless the next moment was that just as the spear was about to hit Angers' brow, Angers' figure suddenly disappeared. He was still sitting in his seat, and without letting anyone see any movement, he turned into a blurry, twisted line, the end of which was directly lunging at Beowulf at the other end of the long table.
The board members were shocked. They hadn't expected that Angers would not only escape this calamity but also launch a swift counterattack. Although they all knew that Angers was able to sit in his current position by possessing powerful Word of Power, when he truly unleashed it, it was truly awe-inspiring.
Meanwhile, in Beowulf's aged eyes, Angers' figure grew larger and larger in the reflection of his pupils. Beowulf remained calm; he reached out, blue-purple lightning twisting like a mad snake in his palm, and slammed it down towards Angers' head. If this strike succeeded, Angers' head would explode like a watermelon.
It must be said that Beowulf's combat ability is very strong. Even though his opponent is also over a hundred years old, his powerful bloodline strength is far beyond what an A-level hybrid can match. Just as Beowulf reached out to grab Angers' head, Angers' lowered eyelids lifted slightly, and his old eyes were full of cold light. A red light like crystal shot out from the cuff of his suit. It was a folding knife, as if it were made of crystal, yet it gave people an extremely sharp feeling.
Both men reacted with lightning speed. In an instant, the blade and the hand collided, producing a clanging sound like steel. Under this same blow, the long table in the conference room shattered into pieces, and some board members were also impacted, staggering backward. The injured Frost was unable to react in this way, but fortunately, Percy behind him acted decisively, grabbing Frost by the back of his collar and pulling him aside.
Before everyone could regain some distance, Angers and Beowulf, having completed their warm-up, began their real battle. At first glance, it looked like two bolts of lightning clashing in the conference room. All the board members couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines, fearing they might be accidentally torn to pieces by the energy unleashed by the two.
