Futile

While the mana was still gathering, the old elf unexpectedly unleashed the whole attack, and the next instant, the ground quaked, and several earth spears rose up at the same time. Naturally, all of them pointed toward Liam.

It looked like he was still holding back. If the old guy really unleashed this attack in its entirety, Liam won't even have any place to dodge. 

Even any barrier he erects probably won't be able to hold back the spears. They were strong and sturdy spears that looked as if they were ready to drill through anything. Only instant death awaited him.

The most impressive part was that it had barely taken the elf a few seconds to conjure such a powerful attack, and Liam was sure that this was nothing for him. He was definitely capable of doing more. Just how powerful was this old guy?

"Don't just stand there. Get to it. This spell is simple enough. Gather mana, mix an element you are comfortable with, and send it out."
