The Mythical Path of a Princess from a Destroyed Kingdom

Maginus's body is changing. The ability to repair her wounds with her life force is no longer a supernatural or spell-like ability affected by the anti-magic field or the dead magic zone. Instead, it is a special ability that can still be used when external energy loses its activity.

However, it's difficult for life force to escape from the body, essentially turning into a warrior who can't move like a tide.

At the same time, because of her strong vitality, her current lifespan is estimated to be different from that of ordinary people.

"And you, do you have any ideas about extending your lifespan?"

When the topic of lifespan came up, since there was still some time before their destination, Maginus casually discussed it with Tsukishima.

Chapter 312 For Better Equipment

"To extend lifespan..."

Yueqian looked up at the sky and remained silent for a long time, as if she wanted to clarify her true feelings.

"If given the chance, of course one would want to prolong life. Who would want to die before they no longer want to live?"

After regaining her composure, she spoke her mind: "Of course, the most important thing is to stay young forever. I don't want to become an old woman, and I also hope to maintain my current strength when I get old."

"Actually, my idea of ​​prolonging life is to go with the flow. If I really can't find it, I don't think I'll be too afraid of death, right?"

After hearing Yueqian's words, Maginus, who had faced death multiple times, spoke up:

"No, before truly facing Lingmeng Liu Linggu!! Ba Ba's death, no one knows what they are really thinking. Even if you think you've accepted death, your body and subconscious will force you to want to live."

"...You seem to be quite moved by this."

Maginus remained silent. Yuexi recalled her abilities and past, guessing that the girl in front of her had probably been halfway to death many times, but had survived each time.

But she doesn't seem to cherish life very much. What is she thinking?

A hint of curiosity arose in Yuexi's heart about Maginus, but since they were just ordinary friends, she didn't feel comfortable asking.

The two stopped talking and continued on their way, successfully entering the complex as night fell.

A large part of the buildings here are actually just decorations; they have nothing inside and are simply molds on the outside.

It's not that there are none at all; there are many magical traps and the like, but most of them aren't fatal, like little jokes played by legendary mages.

The two stealthily made their way closer to the battlefield, seeing many adventurers along the way who were covered in dust but not seriously injured.

However, unlike decorative buildings, those secret chambers or vaults that truly contain the treasures and hoards of legendary sorcerers are fraught with danger, extremely dangerous.

Approaching the armory from the shadows, a mist of life force spread outwards, and the life force of numerous mid-level professionals entered their senses, including a considerable number of high-level professionals, each of whom was quite famous.

It can only be said that Red Sparrow City is indeed a big city and a transportation hub. This exploration of the ruins has attracted many people. The fact that the two of them were able to enter the library safely is already considered quite lucky.

"We'll stay on the outside; it's not suitable for us to go in inside."

"How come there are so many mid-to-high-level cultivators here...?"

"I guess it's for high-level equipment. A legendary mage who has lived for over 500 years must be very wealthy. If he has studied forging and alchemy, he must have made quite a few high-level magical equipment."

Most legendary mages, like hamsters or dragons, have a collecting habit. Even if they sell or give away their collections, they will definitely keep a few items for themselves.

There are quite a few high-level equipment on the mainland, because every year adventurers find some high-level equipment and even legendary equipment from various places during their explorations.

But to say there are many is definitely not the case. The number of high-level professionals is more than the number of high-level equipment discovered, and the number of legendary professionals is also more than the number of legendary equipment discovered.

In short, no one knows how many precious pieces of equipment are buried in history, or perhaps some ancient dragons and long-lived races have simply collected a lot of equipment and are just keeping it for display.

The explosion came from the direction of the armory, flames shot into the sky, and a powerful shockwave kicked up dust and struck Maginus's face.

The battle seemed to have reached a fever pitch, with all levels from high to mid engaging in chaotic combat. Mid-level players were recklessly surrounding high-level professionals, while numerous spellcasters were casting spells or dispelling others' spells.

"Look at the sky, we should run!"

The armory was emitting a constant rumbling sound. Suddenly, Yueqian tugged at Maginus's arm and pointed to the sky with her other hand.

A total of 16 huge fireballs fell from the sky, but they didn't look very big because of the distance.

That was a meteor burst.

The 16 fireballs, composed of four meteor burst spells, may seem small, but if they were to actually fall and explode, under normal circumstances, only high-ranking individuals would likely survive in the armory.

Maginos, however, was not particularly worried about being affected by the shockwave:

"Don't worry, there are many spellcasters over there, they won't let the meteor explode down."

Just as she said, several powerful magical fluctuations came from below, and the fireballs in the air were all annihilated.

The meteor burst was so powerful that as long as it didn't land, there was basically no need to worry too much if there was a caster of the same level present. A counterspell or dispel magic would be enough to break it.

Although the damage is high enough, it is only suitable for clearing out mobs. If you are facing a spellcaster or warrior of the same level, it is not as useful as the Shadow Step.

The magical fluctuations around the weapon vault grew increasingly chaotic, and Yueqian's face gradually paled. She whispered:

"There seems to be a violent spatial fluctuation coming from over there. Something's not right. I can feel it even from here."

“My psychic perception has also been affected,” Maginus said, unable to see what was happening inside. “It looks like a fierce battle, which might trigger spatial turbulence and teleport them all away.”

This demiplane had already been thrown into chaos by the battle near the ruins. If the intense battle between high-level spellcasters really triggered random spatial teleportation, it would definitely be an opportunity for the weaker adventurers in the surrounding area.

"...I need to move closer. You wait for me here. If I don't come back within an hour, you can leave on your own."

After agreeing on their plans with Yuexi, Maginus stealthily approached the treasure vault and casually tore off an invisibility spell, disappearing completely.

She certainly wasn't looking for stronger weapons just to join the fun. Oh, of course, it would be best if she actually came across an opportunity, but what she really wanted to do was find some wounded Bloodstained Society members and finish them off one by one.

As she quietly approached the armory, the life force in the air thickened. The closer she got and the increased life force allowed her to vaguely see the surrounding situation again.

Fortunately, psychic energy and magic are different energy systems; otherwise, the effects of magic disorder would be even stronger.

Scanning the figures constantly moving near the armory, Maginus lay on the ground like a corpse. Even if someone could see through her invisibility, they would subconsciously think she was a dead body.

I don't know you, I don't know you, I don't know you...

Staring at each face, comparing them to the Bloodstained Society members she knew from her memories, she frequently revisited fragmented memories; she would never forget those faces.

Just when the girl thought the Bloodstained Society members hadn't come over, a target moving at an extremely high speed caught her attention.

Maginos's eyes could not keep up with his speed, but he could gradually reconstruct his face by observing the movement of the mist as he dashed through it.

Her face was sculpted in her mind, becoming more and more familiar with it. When it was finally finished, the girl suddenly opened her eyes, her pupils filled with madness, murderous intent, and a great deal of excitement.

This guy was present when his elder brother died.

Chapter 313 Recreating Myself in the Crystal Salt Kingdom

"Found another one, finally found another one."

The girl slowly rose and retreated from the edge of the chaotic battle area, raising her hand to shield the substantial red light emanating from her eyes, her smile still distorted.

During her six months in Cardinal City, Maginus kept her resentment and anger hidden in her heart. Instead of disappearing with the passage of time, they were suppressed like a volcano about to erupt.

Now she has finally found an "old friend" again, which is really great.

When was it that Kaliwisda was killed?

Maginos had forgotten; she never remembered the exact time of her enemies' deaths, but she always felt that the time when she killed her was a very long time ago.

With a slight twitch in her pupils, the girl drew her psychic blade and plunged it into her palm, twisting the hilt to feel the pain, using the agony to calm herself down temporarily.

The person he saw was a spellcaster; he was also present when his elder brother died, and was a mid-level professional.

Trying to recall as much information as possible, Maginus gripped the blade tightly and began to ponder carefully.

With her current strength, it would be difficult for her to deal with him head-on, and it cannot be ruled out that other high-ranking members of the Bloodstained Society would step in to protect him.

But it's okay, she already has a plan. Although she couldn't deal with that guy under normal circumstances, a large number of professionals have died here now.

Death exists for everyone, from low-ranking to high-ranking, from warriors with strong vitality to mages with powerful souls. Mages may have spells like cloning to allow their souls to escape, but such people are ultimately few and far between.

Maginus had sensed the aroma of "food" long ago while she was on the periphery, but she had been enduring her hunger and had not absorbed the life force and soul energy.

If there are no serious enemies, she only deals with some ordinary members of the Bloodstained Guild and absorbs the dissipated soul energy so that she can clear more of her own divinity in the dream space.

But now the plan is to change. Maginus intends to use his immense life force and soul energy to recreate himself in the Crystal Salt Kingdom, and even force himself into a state of psionic rampage once again.

Crushing the Nen Blade in her hand, she took a deep breath and returned to her original position. Yueqian, who was waiting for her, frowned. The white-haired girl, a sword saint, keenly sensed that Maginus's emotions had changed.

It was very similar to the state she and her siblings had when they faced Count Addisoncio together—a mixture of madness and reason, sadness and joy; in short, it was extremely strange and terrifying.

Subconsciously taking a step back, Maginus disregarded Yueqian's wariness, his red-glowing eyes avoiding direct eye contact with her, suppressing his excitement as he whispered for her to leave:

"Miss Yuexi, you should find your own way out first. I'm going to cause a ruckus here in my original identity, so I won't trouble you."

Yueqian was slightly taken aback, then frowned and grabbed her arm:

"Miss Ilsis, someone of your low rank is only destined to die here, isn't she?"

Maginus could sense her worry upon hearing this; perhaps Yueqian considered her a friend.

Suppressing her frustration, she said calmly:

"Don't worry, my friend. I have special techniques to increase my strength. Rest assured, I won't willingly go to my death. After all, I understand the fear of death better than anyone else."

Seeing that she had made up her mind, Yueqian sighed deeply and said "Be careful" before turning around and running away without looking back.

Yuexi sensed extreme danger emanating from Maginus; it was a murderous intent that did not distinguish between friend and foe.

Once the only person who wasn't an enemy had left, the girl turned to look at the treasure vault covered in blood and started walking towards it.

As she moved forward, her white hair turned red again, her face contorted slightly, and an incomparably beautiful face emerged.

The previously restrained life force began to emanate outwards, and the spiritual energy surged, drawing in the life force and soul energy dissipating from the surrounding corpses. The two, like the capital of the Crystal Salt Kingdom, quickly formed a small vortex that grew larger and larger.

"Ah..."

Freed from the constraints of her body, she transformed back into her former self as a young girl, stretching her waist and making a cracking sound from her bones.

She took out the long-unused Guardian Angel from her dimensional bag, raised her index finger and tapped the hilt of the sword. The veins on her wrist burst open, releasing life force to accelerate the initial formation of the vortex.

Not fast enough, faster still. I want to bring fear and despair to the Bloodstained Society.

The center of the scarlet pupils was rendered in black, and within the black, specks of gold shone exceptionally brightly.

With her left hand forming a blade, Maginus raised her hand and thrust the blade directly into her own throat, then pulled it out sharply, causing her life force to gush out even faster.

Gululu...

The blood of the ground adventurers appeared to boil, tiny bubbles appeared, and the blood disappeared at an extremely fast speed, turning into a life force that was invisible to the naked eye and mixed into the vortex.

Fog began to rise all around.

"Kanin! Quickly use the dimensional anchor, the space around here is very unstable!"

"understood!"

"Kanin, a mid-level spellcaster of the Bloodstained Guild, shouted loudly, chanting incantations and striking the ground with his staff. The flow of magic calmed the turbulence in the space, so that there was no need to worry about random spatial movement for the time being."

Whew, I don't know how long it will last, but it looks like we, the blood-soaked ones, will have the upper hand.

Gazing at the battle in the center of the battlefield, besides the members of the Bloodstained Society, people from the four major families and some powerful independent adventurer groups were vying for several high-level weapons.

One wasn't enough; they wanted it all. As a result, the dimensional bag had already been sealed off, and no matter how chaotic the surrounding space was, it was still firmly locked by the dimensional anchor.

We must settle this here today.

However, the Bloodstained Society currently holds the upper hand, mainly because the main forces of the four major families are not here; they have all gone to the apothecary to find ways to prolong life.

This gave the Bloodstained Society an opportunity; barring any unforeseen circumstances, they could obtain at least two high-level weapons.

Thinking of this, Kanin couldn't help but grin. As a participant, he would be able to obtain a mid-level magic wand.

The last time he acquired mid-tier magic equipment was a year ago, when he participated in the battle to annihilate Kadenor as a spellcaster and survived.

The four major families are not united, and the adventurer groups and adventurers are only fighting for themselves. It seems that they are destined to win by shedding blood.

All the members of the Bloodstained Guild thought so, and just when they felt they had it all figured out, the adventurers on the fringes noticed something was wrong.

"Did the surroundings suddenly turn red...?"

"It looks like fog..."

"I feel like I've heard this kind of thing somewhere before..."

The red mist enveloped the battle area, and some spellcasters, realizing something was wrong, immediately cast a wind spell to try to blow away the mist.

However, as soon as it was blown away, the red mist gathered again from all directions, covering a vast area that the wind-generating spell could not possibly clear.

"This fog is... no, impossible..."

Looking up at the red mist, Kanin felt a chill run down his spine, recalling the nightmares that had been frequently recurring in his recent dreams.

Chapter 314 Roll Call

Like many of those who had besieged Nesery, Kanin of the Bloodstained Order had nightmares day and night after learning that Maginus was still alive, fearing that she would one day come after him for his role in the siege of Kadenor Imperius.
