"They've started fighting again, Neko. Let's go to the tower in the manor."
Both sides exuded intense killing intent. Maginus knew their battle would end today, so she might as well make her move sooner rather than later.
Honestly, why are you in such a hurry to fight one or two? Can't you take it slow?
She wasn't in a hurry right now. She strolled leisurely to the manor gate, where the guards raised their weapons and shouted, "This is Miss Dai Nan's manor. Back off!"
"I am Maginus Imperius. If you don't want to die, I suggest you get out of my way."
Maginus chose to try to reason with the guards first, suggesting that they were simply doing their duty and there was no need to kill them.
Another reason is that the guards are too weak; the life force they absorb doesn't increase much, unlike the life force she gains from converting magic power through deep breathing.
Unfortunately, the guards in front of her seemed not to have heard of her name and still held their weapons pointed at her, which made Maginus scratch her head and sigh inwardly.
As expected, my reputation wasn't big enough. Well, if it were big enough, I would be discovered as soon as I entered the town.
With a casual remark, she took the lives of two guards. Maginus clenched her fists and repeated the same thing to everyone she met after entering the manor, giving them ample time to escape.
Those who were well-informed, sensed the difference, and followed the crowd quickly fled, leaving only a few loyal followers to protect the tower and prevent Maginus from rushing in.
She greatly admired loyal people, but unfortunately, no matter how much she admired them, anyone who stood in her way was an enemy.
"Inside, clear the way."
A bright flash of lightning streaked across the point where the scimitars clashed, and psionic lightning blasted out, striking one guard before chaining to the other guards, knocking them all to the ground.
Upon reaching the tower, Maginus smashed the iron gate with a single punch, climbed to the top of the tower, released the spell, and pushed open the door. The girl who was gazing at the sky heard the noise and turned around, stunned by Maginus's beautiful face.
Before she could speak, Maginus snapped his fingers and released a terrifying aura. A flash of purplish-black light appeared, and the emotions that the young lady had suppressed instantly swelled up. Her pupils were stained purplish-black, and her expression became vicious and gloomy.
"Who are you!?"
She called out, confirming the young lady's identity. Maginos showed no mercy, grabbing her by the neck and lifting her high, his nails piercing her skin to drain her life force.
She frowned as soon as she took a puff; the spiciness and sulfurous taste made her frown. Something had been added to her life force, and her blood, tainted with the aura of the lower realm, still tasted awful.
The one treating the young lady is a demon, but it's unclear what kind.
"Ah ah ah..."
As her life force gradually faded, in the final moments of her life, she seemed to regain some of her former consciousness, gazing weakly at Maginot and begging her not to kill her.
After being reborn, Maginus, who was slightly soft-hearted, closed his eyes and simply said sorry, allowing the young lady to die as painlessly as possible.
Her life force and soul energy were extracted, and the remaining will of the evil god's anger immediately appeared in her mental dream. Maginus quickly left with the inner can, and after returning to the inn, she sat cross-legged and closed her eyes.
She needs to deal with the remaining will within her body first; otherwise, leaving it unattended will pollute her mind.
Upon entering the dream, a Dark Guardian charged forward with a sword raised. The now-unchanged Maginus conjured a mental blade and assumed a fighting stance. A ten-meter-deep crater appeared in the ground, and her figure vanished from its original spot, only to reappear behind the Dark Guardian, spinning and slashing.
Chapter 474 Unable to Obtain Skills
The Dark Guardian raised his sword to block, but was sent flying more than a hundred meters away. His arm was visibly twisted. The current Maginus was no longer the one who could only kill the will of the evil god by trickery.
The entire mental dream world belongs to her alone; how can external fragments of will fight against her?
The Dark Guardian, who had been sent flying backward, regained his footing, but Maginus chased after him once more. A clear dragon transformation appeared on his body, and he roared as divine sparks ignited in the air. The intense pressure forced the Dark Guardian to his knees.
"Hoo!!"
With his knees slamming into the ground, the Dark Guardian struggled to his feet. Black mist emanated from within his armor, sprouting countless giant hands that tried to grab Maginus.
However, more crimson thorns burst forth from beneath the ground, slamming one after another into the Dark Guardian.
As the purplish-black hand collapsed, the mind blade transformed into a giant sword. Maginus raised the door-sized sword high and hammered at the head of the Dark Guardian. Black mist continuously broke off, and just as it was about to fall to the ground, it was evaporated by the faint light of her divine sparks. More points of light emerged from them and gathered at the top of the head.
She hammered relentlessly, her job being to completely dismantle the Dark Guardians, shatter the will of the evil god, and allow the divinity of the Ks to be completely returned to her.
As the Dark Guardians were ground to dust, a purplish-black mist surged from Maginus's body, growing ever more imposing. But if anyone was present, they felt not only fear of tyranny, but also awe.
After spending more than ten minutes crushing the Dark Guardian to death, Maginus, who had extracted the remnants of divinity, enjoyed the sublimation of her spirit and body. She opened her eyes and met the gaze of Neko, who had curiously approached, her crimson pupils swirling with golden light.
"Meow!"
Neke screamed and collapsed to the ground, covering her face with blood streaming from her eyes. She was clearly provoked, and there was a real reason why she couldn't look directly at the gods.
He raised his hand and touched Neike's head to help repair her eyes. The cat rubbed her eyes and got up, complaining, "Ouch, it hurts so much! Master, couldn't you have said something when you woke up?!"
"It was my mistake, it won't happen again."
Pulling Neko's cheek to apologize, Maginus sensed the extra power he had gained after absorbing divinity.
Unfortunately, no extra abilities appeared. The magical skills that I was able to obtain in the past were brought about by the will of the evil god. The harm of the will far outweighs the benefits, but there are indeed benefits. Once accepted, one can gain a lot of knowledge and abilities.
Things are different now. Maginos extracted only the purest divinity, without any memories, and she has to fill in the gaps herself.
"Well, in short, let's just copy the moves from our blood relatives."
Maginus didn't think too much about this. There were so many divine children; she could simply try to copy other people's abilities, since she could add to her own basic divinity anyway.
Activating life perception to observe the two forces locked in a chase, they are about to come into contact, and a major battle is almost imminent.
However, she quickly shifted her attention as a more powerful being entered her domain and ran towards the location where both sides were moving, seemingly to support one of them.
At the moment of Miss Dainan's death, Greva, who was about to catch up with the Bloodstained Society members, was somewhat surprised, as she sensed the death of her "patient".
Who killed her? And not even her soul was left; Greva had originally planned to keep it for himself.
Glancing at the Grand Duke beside her, Greva, though eager to see his pained expression upon learning of her daughter's murder, still adhered to the most basic agreement and secretly sent a message to her "master."
The sorcerer holding the pendant's pupils constricted, a murderous intent rising within him for Dainan, fearing that Dainan would vent his anger on him because of this matter.
But remembering the contract he had signed with him, the sorcerer relaxed again, thinking to himself how to get him a fake daughter so that he could deceive everyone and eventually take complete control of the entire Shelter Territory.
We still need to get through the current difficulties first; the Bloodstained Society's assassins are not easy to defeat.
A flaming arrow shot from the front, and the sorcerer aimed at it and released a flaming arrow in return. The two arrows collided in mid-air and canceled each other out.
The three Bloodstained Society members have been completely caught up. If they continue to run, they will be met with arrows and spells from behind.
Still unaware of his daughter's death, Fortestodian raised his weapon above his head and silently charged at the three men. In the meantime, the army surrounded the surrounding area, giving them no chance to escape.
The Bloodstained Society warrior stepped forward and engaged Dainan in combat. His greatsword was skillfully deflected and smashed into the ground, embedding itself deeply in the soil. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the warrior drew another small knife from his waist and stabbed at Dainan, but Dainan dodged it by tilting his head back.
Having no other weapons, the Grand Duke unleashed a punch, the fierce force of which caused the Bloodstained Warriors' pupils to shrink slightly, finally revealing information about the Grand Duke's advanced profession or part-time job.
Fortestos probably also had a profession related to monks.
He withdrew his hand and used his arm armor to block the fist. The violent shock penetrated the heavy armor, and even after being cushioned by the cotton inside the armor, it was still very powerful. A slight cracking sound was heard, and the Bloodstained Warriors retreated one after another.
The Grand Duke pressed his advantage and attacked. The Bloodstained Warriors no longer held back, their breath forming waves of energy, earth element mixed with magic surging and covering their skin beneath their armor.
This member of the Bloodstained Guild is not a pure warrior; he is an elemental warrior, meaning he can use elements, and the element he has chosen is earth.
Although the technique is simple, it is still a supernatural ability. The technique currently being used is the elemental manifestation of earth, and judging from its performance, it can be seen that it can enhance defensive capabilities.
The slash struck the armor, and both the magical armor and the magical weapon flashed with light. The blade left a scratch on the armor but did not break through the defense.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the elemental warrior lightly flicked his longsword and activated a technique called Elemental Weapon. Strong acid condensed on the surface of the blade, which would not corrode the sword but would only corrode the enemy.
The two sides' warriors clashed in the middle. The Bloodstained Assassin concealed himself, and Greva, seeing this, smiled and swung his dagger forward a few steps. The mages of both teams became wary of each other, ready to interrupt the enemy's spellcasting at any moment.
The elemental warrior was the first to give out. Grand Duke Dainan was stronger than him, so it looked like a three-on-three battle, but it was actually just him fighting the Grand Duke.
The mage grew anxious, but before he could cast a spell, Greva, as if sensing something, turned his head to look behind him, and suddenly another figure appeared behind his master!
The reinforcements that the Bloodstained Society had been waiting for have finally arrived!
The strongest in Chapter 475
Joining the fray was a shadow dancer who silently approached the sorcerer through the shadows and launched a sudden assassination. The sorcerer had no time to react before the blade fell on his neck.
Fortunately, spellcasters have some kind of life-saving item. When the Shadow Dancer's dagger touched the skin, the precious passive item used the Shadow Step to leave a silver mist in place, while the sorcerer was teleported dozens of meters away.
Mage Armor!
Somewhat shaken, the sorcerer touched his neck and raised his hand to cast a defensive spell. His heart sank when the fourth person appeared. Four mid-level cultivators against three mid-level cultivators—the three of them were clearly at a disadvantage.
The reason is simple: the Grand Duke couldn't deal with the elemental warriors in a short time, but the two assassins could kill him in the shortest possible time. He really didn't have the confidence to survive against the two assassins.
As for her lord, Greva, she certainly wouldn't fight with all her might; she might even be longing for her soul after death.
"Damn it!"
After analyzing the situation, the sorcerer realized he was the most dangerous. Without giving the Shadow Dancer another chance to remain invisible, he raised his hand and unleashed a barrage of magical energy to bombard the Shadow Dancer.
Dominate humanity!
However, while he was trying to protect himself, the mage on the other side also made his move, attempting to control the sorcerer and then have two assassins take care of him.
Fortunately, the sorcerer's equipment was decent, which strengthened his will, and his connection with Greva also gave him some resistance to mind control spells. The two combined barely managed to block the mind-controlling spells.
The Shadow Dancer once again vanished from everyone's sight during the lull. The sorcerer wanted to call his sect leader for help, but Greva "just happened" to grab another lurking assassin and get entangled with him.
Her expression, however, was completely relaxed and carefree, showing no sign of any difficulty whatsoever.
"Greiva!"
The sorcerer roared, and everyone noticed the beautiful older woman's passive behavior, with many guesses in their minds. The assassin fighting her felt the unfathomable depth of her strength.
He had already used all his strength, but the woman opposite him was still the same.
In less than five minutes, the besieged sorcerer had exhausted all his life-saving items and his spells were almost depleted. He was in a life-or-death crisis that was rapidly approaching.
"Damn it, Greva, you bastard!"
The sorcerer roared, and the Grand Duke who was attacking the elemental warriors also realized something. He prepared to leave the battlefield and let the surrounding soldiers surround him. As long as he went out, the soldiers around him would fire arrows and then rush over to overwhelm the mid-level warrior with sheer numbers.
"Help me! I...I'm willing to sign a new contract!"
The sorcerer, about to be killed, roared. Greva raised an eyebrow; she had been waiting for those words.
Before she could speak, the woman, sensing something, changed her expression slightly, raised her eyebrows in disbelief, and glanced into the distance: "No way, a celebrity actually came here."
Step, step, step...
The sound of boots hitting the ground rang out, and an eighth person appeared in the encircled battlefield, their terrifying aura suppressing everyone except Greva.
"I find it hard to believe too. You don't look like an ordinary demon, yet you're following the sorcerer around. What, are you planning to toy with him?"
Maginus emerged from the alley, and her next words plunged Fortestodian into despair.
“I, Maginus Imperius, originally thought that I could find a qualified person to help me restore my country and deal with the Bloodstained Society guys while I was at it. Tsk tsk, I never expected that the dignified Grand Duke Fortestodian would actually collude with the devil and her sorcerer.”
"Well, it seems I can't use you anymore. If you've already given your soul to the devil, I won't feel at ease keeping you around."
The loud voice echoed throughout the block. Most of the ordinary soldiers around only recognized the name, while some soldiers who frequented taverns and enjoyed listening to bards tell stories realized who it was.
Those at the captain level and above, needless to say, must all have realized the meaning of the name Maginus.
Their faces turned deathly pale as they frantically retreated, terrified of being "sacrificed" by the God of Slaughter.
First came an instinctive fear, then everyone reacted, staring in astonishment at their Grand Duke, their eyes seemingly saying:
Are you also entangled with the devil?
The six people stared blankly at the red-haired older sister who had walked out of the alley and stood motionless, and made almost the same reaction.
Run, run as far as possible. Wealth, power, land—none of that matters in the face of life.
Maginus didn't look at the people who had run away. He raised his hand and patted them lightly, and their hearts stopped beating at the same time.
The severity of the injuries varied. The sorcerer and the mage collapsed to the ground, while the other four could hold on for a while. However, Maginus's blood spike pierced through the chests of the four men, suspending them high in the air.
With her gaze fixed on the mature woman who was about the same age as herself, Maginus realized that she couldn't see through this person in front of her. She decided to start the fight first, pointed her sword at her, and then swung out an arc-shaped blood blade.
The sharp blood blade was almost within reach, and a large amount of life force suddenly appeared, piercing towards Greva. She simply grinned and activated a high-level teleportation spell to leave the spot directly.
When she appeared at the landing point, Maginus was already in front of her, swiftly swinging his sword.
The blade thrust upwards, but a long whip blocked the silver sword's advance. Glaiva, holding the whip, stared at Maginus. The pressure from the divinity of the demon had no effect on her.
"legend?"
As if asking a casual question, Maginus turned and sheathed his silver sword, his tail growing out from behind and lashing at the woman's cheek. But Greva actually raised his hand and grabbed the dragon's tail, gripping it tightly and trying to throw her away.
Unfortunately, the dragon's tail was severed in the middle, and Maginos, with a scar on her face, transformed into a half-dragon form, her bones crackling as she unleashed a powerful slash.
The blade of thought erodes the soul!
The ground collapsed within a radius of fifty meters, and a terrifying hurricane swept through the air along with sharp life crystals. Greva, who had already escaped the range of the sword blades, suppressed the smile on his face and swung his long whip with all his might to block the crystals.
As she tried to stop him, her changes gradually faded, revealing her true form.
Its enormous wings spread out, revealing a pair of jet-black feathers, a few wisps of feathers falling. A delicate, forked tail, tipped with a swallowtail, swayed behind it. Small, pointed horns emerged from its head, which Maginus found quite adorable.
If we disregard the pressure she exudes.
