Chapter 1390 - Reunion (1/2)
Chapter 1390: Reunion
The thorns on the vines stabbed into Cage’s body, and swallowed his blood crazily, turning the green vines red very quickly.
Cage sneered, and casually released an Ice Blade, slashing the bloody vines.
“Stupid man, nothing more than hellish vines? You think you can kill a real Heaven Rank expert with such a stupid trap? I’m not as dumb as Edward.”
The Ice Blade cut the bloody vines, and left a long and narrow wound on their surface. Blood gushed out like from a spring. At the same time, Cage screamed miserably. One of the vines crawled into Cage’s wide open mouth. In only one second, Cage started rolling his eyes, and seemed much slimmer than before.
Seeing the unexpected change, Kevin and the other Heaven Rank expert were shocked and infuriated. Their extraordinary power and magic aura burst out. A lot of bottles exploded into pieces, and splashed towards Lin Yun.
A shield arose around Lin Yun, covering a radius of several meters. There was not the slightest wind in the area…
Lin Yun heaved a sigh and abandoned his experiment.
“I’ve failed again. The Bloody Lich truly lives up to being one of the most ancient liches. This seemingly ordinary journal actually contains 13 ancient languages. It’s truly difficult to track down the guys who had deciphered the journal and performed the ritual…”
After he abandoned the experiment, all the materials were set ablaze in gray flames and disappeared.
Lin Yun was quite surprised, as if he hadn’t noticed Kevin until this moment.
“Who are you? Are you trying to get killed?”
Kevin put on an awful expression. The staff in his hand emitted blue light.
“Wicked guy, let go of Cage, or be prepared for the Seiro Family’s bloody revenge…”
Lin Yun shook his head.
“The Seiro Family? A third-tier family, for sure. Never mind. My alchemy experiment has failed again. I’m in no mood to chat with you again…”
Lin Yun snapped his fingers, and Cage’s body collapsed into a pile of ashes. A few law runes appeared around Kevin and another Heaven Rank mage, and then confined them as four-colored cages.
Inside colorful cages, the power of elements turned into a destructive storm that burnt the two men into ashes.
After killing the three men, Lin Yun shook his head. He had been recovering very fast, and should be able to regain his extraordinary power in a couple of days. However, even though he was unable to make use of extraordinary power, it was still very easy for him to kill two level-1 Heaven Rank experts.
That was a pure advantage of the understanding of laws. The two frost mages had just grasped the law of frost. They were no different from defenseless young beasts to Lin Yun. They were even easier to kill than an Archmage would’ve been.
Lin Yun had spent most of his days studying the journal besides waiting for his recovery. The journal from the Bloody Lich contained a shocking amount of knowledge. That guy knew almost all languages, including the Nesser language, the elves’ tongue of Noscent, the Enno language from the Plane of the Undead, and even devils’ and demons’ language.
That lich knew everything. He had even hidden a lot of information after the journal was translated into the Common Tongue of Noscent. Nobody could notice anything special unless they knew the original language.
Previously, Lin Yun had planned to decipher the journal, and then track down the guys who were performing or had completed the ritual, but it was more difficult than expected. He had to take his time or seek Gandaph’s help.
Lin Yun continued studying the journal. Inside the Natural Demiplane, Marianna was looking for trouble again. For her, staying inside the Natural Demiplane was no different from being grounded. She tried her best to flee.
Ever since she failed to study the truth runes on the pillar, she had been climbing the pillar. Her strong body that she inherited from Xiuban proved useful. Supposedly, nobody should’ve been able to endure the pressure of the pillar or fly there except Lin Yun.
There was a space gate on the top of the pillar. The space gate was made of the King’s Pillars. Marianna detected the aura of two King’s Pillars. She wanted to obtain them, or escape the Demiplane through the space gate.
It was impossible to break the space here—even with the gods’ power of chaos. Having been consolidated by Lin Yun multiple times, the Demiplane was even more stable than Noscent. It was impossible to detect anything outside of the plane from here.
She couldn’t get the King’s Pillars or the truth runes. She wanted to find several Blood Elves as helpers, only to find that they had already been brainwashed by Lord Shawn…
Marianna desperately clung to the pillar in the middle of it, and looked at the top not far away.
“Humph, just wait for it. When I get out and regain my strength, I will surely kill you first. No, I’ll kill that stupid beastman first. To think I’ve been reborn as a beastman…”
Marianna gnashed her teeth, with desperation all over her chubby face. The glorious Abyssal Overlord who mastered more than one level of the abyss, and who shook the ferocious demons with her name, had been reduced to such poor condition…
Wiping her face, Marianna continued climbing.
“Damn you, Mafa Merlin, you’ve locked me in this place. There’s not even a living creature here. No bulls, no pigs, just a bunch of goddamn Blood Elf slaves and some skinny human beings. This must be hell…
“This place is hell. I have to run out. I have to…”
Marianna gritted her teeth, and climbed to the peak of the pillar. Against the horrifying pressure, she approached the space gate, and looked at the two King’s Pillars. Then, she made up her mind, and entered the space gate.
Marianna spouted some of the remaining gods’ power out of her body. Immediately, a hole that was only half a meter tall was created inside the space gate. Although it was fixed very quickly, Marianna had seized the opportunity and disappeared.
A second later, Lin Yun, who was running an experiment, had a feeling and looked aside. Vague ripples appeared in space, and a dirty Marianna fell from midair.
“Hahaha. I’ve finally escaped from that goddamn hell of desolation…”
With her arms akimbo, Marianna was laughing with great joy when she noticed that something behind her blocked the light. She turned around, only to find that Lin Yun was staring at her with a smile.
“Marianna, you’re being a bad girl again, aren’t you?”
Marianna’s face was full of desperation. Remembering her suffering when she climbed to the peak of the pillar, she felt sorry for herself.
She even fell three times during climbing. If she hadn’t been so sturdy, she probably would’ve been moaning at the bottom of the hill.
She had gone through so much trouble to escape, and even wasted some of her remaining gods’ power. Yet, she had reappeared right in front of the goddamn Mafa Merlin.
Marianna seemed completely desperate and hopeless.
All of a sudden, Lin Yun noticed something, and looked out through the wall of the mage tower. Marianna seized the opportunity to jump out of the window of the alchemy lab.
Running out of the mage tower, Marianna grinned and rushed crazily. She was quite short, but she was running even faster than many flying mages.
Lin Yun looked at Marianna’s back with sympathy.
