Full-Time Magister: Dark Throne

Chapter 33 Dark Matter: Cursed Armor!

Just as Tang Yue was about to lean against He An's chest, a pair of large hands gently supported her head.

Why do these criminals always like to use this kind of drug? Do they get a member discount from some underground pharmacist?

He An silently complained to himself.

"He An, you, you stay away!"

Touched by those large hands, Tang Yue regained some of her senses, struggled to retreat a distance, and shouted loudly at He An.

An unnatural flush rose to her face, and the stray hairs on her forehead were damp with sweat, sticking to her smooth forehead. Her already charming eyes were now veiled with a thin layer of mist.

"Phew~ You, don't come any closer! Teacher, teacher can handle this herself!"

Tang Yue spoke with some pain, but her expression and actions did not convey the ease she spoke of.

"Teacher Tang Yue, my second awakened element at the intermediate level is poison," He An said, stopping his movements and standing still.

A ball of dark green magic appeared in his hand, turning into wisps of mist that slowly drifted toward Tang Yue.

Listening to Tang Yue's breathing gradually becoming steady amidst the dark green mist, He An looked up towards the direction of the small house from which the sounds of battle were coming from.

That's the next one.

He An withdrew his gaze, took one last look at Tang Yue who was fast asleep, and then drifted away as a shadow.

"Fierce Fist!"

The raging flames gathered into a ring, condensing on Dongfang Zhi's wrist the instant he uttered the magical sound.

"Jisha!"

As the magic suffix was uttered, the fist was slammed hard into the ground beneath its feet.

The scalding flame energy was completely injected into the ground, transforming into a crimson energy band that spread towards Zhang Cao's feet.

"BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!!"

The ground could not withstand the enormous energy and shattered into small pieces, which were then melted by the flames. Thick flames erupted and bloomed into a lotus of fire filled with the aura of death!

"It's no use!"

Amidst the raging flames, a dark figure emerged from the center of the fire lotus.

A black substance receded from his face like a tide, revealing his somewhat handsome face.

"This is a special gift from my Lord. How could a mortal like you possibly break it?" Zhang Jia said, shaking his head, his eyes full of sympathy as he looked at the four of them.

"Now, it's time to send you to our Lord!"

Zhang Cao clasped his hands together in front of his chest, looked up at the sky, and adopted a compassionate bodhisattva-like posture.

"The Spider's Trap: Soul Destroyer!"

The four looked up and saw a dark, murky object slowly descending from above.

It looked like a black, sticky spider web, or like the sticky claws of some creature slapping down on the four of them!

Black claws, black spider webs, and faintly visible above this black trap is the ghostly shadow of a terrifying, evil spider, its eyes gleaming with a mad and greedy light that is captivating!

The evil spider was about to pounce on the four of them and devour their souls!

"It's a mid-level, third-tier curse spell!" Dongfang Zhi's expression turned solemn. He had learned about the power of curse spells from some of his elders.

"Run!" Song Lai, surrounded by blue stars, anxiously reminded the three who were still standing there.

"It's no use. All curse-type skills are pre-cast. Only mind-type or light-type spells can break curse-type magic. From the moment we arrived here, our lives were no longer in our own hands!" Zhang Bai shook his head and slumped to the ground in despair.

"Didn't the Tribunal know that Zhang Guan possessed curse abilities? Why didn't they send a mind or light mage with them?"

Dongfang Zhi stood aside cursing bitterly. His proud fire element would lose connection not only to the star map, but even to the star orbit.

The black spider web slowly pressed down. During this binding process, if they tried to cast a spell, the terrifying body of the evil spider would appear in their mental world, making them unable to control any of the stars!

The leader, Zhang Bai, shook his head and said with a wry smile, "It's not that simple. The Black Vatican is behind the disaster in Bo City, and all the members of the Inquisition have already been mobilized. Not to mention using precious mind-based mages on this kind of person. The light-based mages in the vicinity have also been transferred to carry out another mission. Otherwise, we wouldn't have needed to find a shadow-based kid as a backup."

As they talked, black, transparent silk wrapped around the four of them. Their souls seemed to be being slowly drained away by something evil, and they stared blankly at each other with their faces upturned.

Only Zhang Bai, with the highest cultivation level, retained a faint trace of consciousness, letting out an angry roar: "Zhang Jia! Killing us today won't change anything! Our Judgment Council will relentlessly pursue you until you, this madman who tramples on life, are thoroughly judged!!!"

Zhang Bai roared out these words, then his head lolled to the side and he lost consciousness.

"It seems your minds are still not quite clear. You should join our Lord as soon as possible and attain transcendence!"

Zhang Jia maintained his hypocritical facade of compassion and sympathy, praising his sovereign, whose whereabouts were unknown.

"Giant Shadow Nail!"

Dark purple star trails rapidly intertwined beneath He An's feet, forming a star map.

A giant nail made of pure darkness took shape on He An's chest and stabbed towards Zhang Cao's shadow!

"Rugged Rocks and Barriers!"

Zhang Cao seemed to sense something, and slapped his hands on the ground. A huge rock barrier rose from the ground, shifting his shadow.

"I didn't expect there would still be some that slipped through the net." Zhang Cao narrowed his long, narrow eyes and looked in the direction from which the giant shadow nail was coming.

However, He'an's attack was not that simple.

"Twins!"

As He An coldly uttered the magical suffix, the giant shadow nail flying in mid-air split into two in the middle at an extremely fast speed!

The giant shadow nail bypassed the rock barrier and suddenly pierced Zhang Heng's shadow.

Unlike the first-level Giant Shadow Nail, once the second-level Giant Shadow Nail - Twins hits, the opponent will not only be unable to move their body, but their mind will also be locked, interfering with the connection of the stars.

Bound by the giant shadow nail, he now truly resembled a stone statue.

"Awooo!"

While Zhang Guan was unable to move, a huge figure materialized behind him and swatted him away with a claw with a disdainful expression.

"Cough, cough! Advanced Warrior stage? And you're a summoner?"

Zhang coughed up several mouthfuls of blood and got up from the ground.

He was no longer as arrogant as before; his body was covered in mud, and five bright red claw marks appeared on his once fair face.

Seeing that Zhang Cao was still able to stand up, He An raised his eyebrows.

I never expected Zhang Cao's turtle shell to be so durable. It can withstand high-level lightning magic, and it can even withstand a slap from Xing Zhu!

This is no ordinary turtle shell; we have to deliver a powerful blow!

"Night has fallen!"

He An spoke coldly, extending his right hand behind him!

A jet-black longsword emerged from the shadows and flew into his hand.

With a sword cry, Ye Lan thrust out without warning, the dazzling sword light cleaving the space in front of him in two!

The sword came with incredible speed, truly as fast as lightning!

When the sword light arrived, the area around Zhang Cao was suddenly shattered!

The earth, already under attack by magic, was now further eroded, the original soil pulverized and dissipated in the sword light.

Zhang Mo, who was fully activating the dark matter, also vanished without a trace after the sword light, leaving only a mass of dark matter with an ominous aura in the original place.

"Aww!"

Upon seeing the mass of dark matter, Xingzhu excitedly rushed towards it, his eyes sparkling with starlight, emitting a tremendous pulling force that drew the dark matter into it.

He An looked at the sleeping Xingzhu and put it back into the shadow.

The four people lying unconscious on the ground were not seriously injured thanks to He An's timely intervention; they only needed some time to recover their souls.

After confirming that there was nothing else going on, He An used Shadow Step to travel to the Jinyuan Apartment he had rented.

As soon as he arrived at the apartment, Xingzhu in the Shadow Space made a sound, and He An immediately summoned it out of the space.

This time, what changed was Xingzhu's skin and hair. Tiny black substances started spreading from Xingzhu's right eye and gradually covered his entire body.

He An stood beside it and observed it carefully, discovering that the black substance was actually a series of tiny ancient incantations!

After the transformation was completed, a Star Chaser wearing armor woven from ancient incantations appeared before He An.

"Aww!!!"

Xingzhu looked at his cool new skin and let out a joyful roar.

Sensing the information transmitted by Xingzhu, He An smiled.

This is Zhang Cao's dark substance, named: Cursed Armor.

It can slightly increase the user's curse power, and when used, it can also unfold armor constructed from curse runes, greatly increasing defense!

It can even defend against high-level magic and attacks from commander-level demons to a certain extent!

Isn't this much better than the Armored Demon Armor?

Speaking of the armored magical artifacts, He An, after his initial joy, suddenly realized that he seemed to have forgotten something.

"Did I forget something? Oh right, I haven't picked up my armored magic tools yet! I should tell Teacher Tang Yue and ask her to bring them to me."

"Achoo! He An, you bastard!"

In the woods, Tang Yue, dressed in thin clothes, leaned weakly against a tree and sneezed in the cool summer night.
