Chapter 446: A Massive Upheaval I

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Swoosh.”

Merlin did not know how much time has passed when he opened his eyes. He could feel that the Fifth-level Spell Model inside his body had used up a large amount of his Mind Power.

At the moment when the Fifth-level spell was first constructed, the Spell Model shifted slightly. Countless Darkness Elements swarmed down and penetrated madly into Merlin’s body. The Spell Model inside his body then converted them into Magic Power.

Fifth-level spells would begin to exert an oppressive force on the Spell Caster, especially since Merlin’s Fifth-level spell was a brand-new spell that was derived by The Matrix. It could not be treated like an ordinary Fifth-level spell.

This Fifth-level Darkness-type spell already contained an oppressive power that was capable of oppressing the other Spell Models in Merlin’s Awareness. Fortunately for Merlin, all of his Spell Models were extraordinary, so that bit of oppression was not enough to cause the other Spell Models to collapse.

Nevertheless, it was a good reminder for Merlin that as he began building higher-level Spell Models, his success might yield not only powerful results but also some unintended effects.

“Fifth-level Darkness-type spell.”

A strange glimmer flashed in Merlin’s eyes. He could sense that this spell was not ordinary and was more powerful than any spell he had before. This Fifth-level Darkness-type spell was also very different from his Fourth-level Darkness-type spell, Darkness Illusory Death.

The most jarring difference was that this Fifth-level Darkness-type spell had a much more powerful attacking force than a Hallucinating spell. Formerly, all the Darkness-type spells relied on invoking hallucinations to confuse an opponent, but this Fifth-level Darkness-type spell possessed a strong attacking power by itself.

Merlin stretched out his hand and issued a silent command in his mind. In an instant, the Fifth-level Darkness-type Spell Model was triggered. Darkness descended around him. There was not a single trace of light. It was so dark you could not even see your hand, and even the use of Mind Power was unresponsive.

Only Merlin alone could see this dark expanse clearly. Aside from causing hallucinations, the most lethal kind of attack one could make on this dark expanse was one that was done out of stealth. Endless quantities of Darkness Elements would explode into unparalleled power in an instant. It would then attack the opponent at their most vulnerable moment when they definitely would not be able to deflect it. What a baffling attack it would be!

This was the unique characteristic of the Fifth-level Darkness-type spell. Its notable quality was how secretive it could be. Once an opponent was surrounded by the spell, it would be quite hard for them to defend themselves against it.

“Since its attack is so stealthy and cannot be deflected, I’ll call it the Shadow Assassin!”

Merlin coined a name for his Fifth-level Darkness-type spell. Since all the spells derived from The Matrix were new, Merlin had to name all of them. In the future, these spells could be known to only the Wilson family and passed down to the later generations of the family.

Merlin retracted the spell and noticed that Wizard Seymour and the others were guarding outside of the tower, but he was not in a hurry to leave. Only three days had passed. He still had time to construct another spell.

This time, Merlin did not choose a Fire-type spell, but an Earth-type spell.

It was because he already had the fourth form of the Darkness Eye and the newly-constructed Fifth-level Darkness-type spell, Shadow Assassin, as his attacking spells. His attacking powers were already exceedingly powerful. On the contrary, his defensive powers were slightly weaker. That was why he chose the Earth-type spell.

The Fifth-level Earth-type spell had much better options. There were a total of five spells with a hundred percent compatibility. Merlin had the chance to choose among them.

Merlin’s previous Fourth-level Earth-type spell, Rippling Armor, had a satisfactory defensive power, but its range was not wide enough and could not be sustained for a long time.

Therefore, Merlin had to choose carefully before constructing the Fifth-level spell.

After a while, Merlin chose an Earth-type Spell Model that had one hundred percent compatibility. This Spell Model was also quite unique, and its defensive power was spectacular. However, he would have to successfully construct the spell to find out what unique qualities it had.

As he thought about this, Merlin quickly gathered his thoughts and begin constructing the spell.

Four days passed by, and the Darkness Elements accumulated around the Wizard Tower had slowly dissipated. Ocher-colored concentrated Earth Elements began to take their places instead.

Wizard Seymour and those who were guarding outside the tower knew that this meant Merlin had begun to construct Earth-type spells. Him constructing two spells in a row left a huge impact on the Eighth-level Wizards.

It was important to note that the feat of deriving a spell was already exceedingly challenging for any Spell Caster above the Seventh-level. The process not only would take a long time but also required a series of coincidences for the derivation to be successful. Ordinarily, they would derive one spell and immediately start constructing that one spell. They had never constructed several spells in a row.

Nonetheless, how were they to know that all of Merlin’s spells were derived from The Matrix and that it had even derived four spells in a row? Moreover, Merlin’s Mind Power had grown to enormous proportions under the influence of the divinity. That was why it was possible for him to build a few spells in a row.

“Hum.”

Four days later, Merlin’s body jolted. His entire body felt like it had been submerged in concentrated soil elements. A gigantic Spell Model appeared in his Awareness. It was emitting a large oppressive force and could be compared to the Shadow Assassin Spell Model.

“The Fifth-level Earth-type spell is finally completed. I’m going to try it!”

Merlin heaved a long sigh of relief. Constructing two spells in a row made him feel quite exhausted. However, just thinking about testing the new spells got him excited all over again.

Hence, his Mind Power had triggered the Fifth-level Earth-type spell instantly. Circles of ocher rays began to shimmer from Merlin’s body. These circular ocher rays did not form an armor. Instead, they formed a ring that encapsulated Merlin.

Moreover, this ocher ring could shrink and expand however it liked.

Merlin was not too sure how powerful this new spell was. After some thought, a small white flame appeared in his hand. It was the Fiery Collapse.

“Boom”.

In an instant, Merlin’s entire body seemed to be engulfed in a column of pale white flames, but the ocher ring around his body did not seem to undergo any change.

Upon closer inspection, Merlin discovered that the ocher ring would start to weaken the flames, layer by layer, from the outside to the inside. Therefore, by the time the flames got near to the ring and to Merlin, its power had been reduced at least by half.

The ocher ring could easily withstand the burning of the flames. Merlin was pleasantly surprised. This was not an ordinary attack after all. It was Incinerating Fire that had been fused with Fiery Collapse, a very powerful spell. The Fourth-level Rippling Armor spell would not have possessed such strong defensive powers.

Fifth-level spells were indeed powerful!

Merlin pondered for a while on what name to give this new Fifth-level Earth-type spell. He called it the Enervating Halo. The name was very appropriate as the Enervating Halo literally meant that it would enervate any attack to its weakest point!

The Enervating Halo would be able to take on any attacks by then!

“Fuh...”

Merlin drew a long breath of relief. Seven days had passed. There would not be enough time for him to construct another spell. Furthermore, both his Fifth-level spells, the Darkness-type Shadow Assassin and the Earth-type Enervating Halo, were extremely specialized. They should be enough to counter some of the future threats he might encounter.

Therefore, he stood up and left the Wizard Tower.

“Swish”.

Merlin appeared beside Wizard Seymour. Wizard Seymour sensed it and immediately opened his eyes. He gave Merlin a once-over and let out a smile. “Wizard Merlin, it looks like you’ve accomplished a lot!”

Merlin did not deny the statement. His abilities had indeed become more powerful after constructing the two new Fifth-level spells. He asked Wizard Seymour, “Wizard Seymour, it has been seven days. How’s the preparation going in the Dark Magic Region? If everyone is ready, we don’t actually have to wait the whole ten days. The sooner we get to Subzero Snowfield, the safer we’ll be.”

Wizard Seymour nodded. “Everything is prepared. I will now gather all the elders and start the move. It’s just that I cannot bear to part with this Dark Magic Region...”

Wizard Seymour took a long look at the Dark Magic Region. Here laid the roots of the Dark Magic Region that had been passed down from generations to generations over thousands of years. Having to leave it behind so suddenly was naturally hard for a lot of them, but the situation at hand was too compelling. They must move away no matter how much they might miss it.

Numerous Spell Casters flew out from every Wizard Tower once they had received Wizard Seymour’s order. Most of these Spell Casters were the official members of the Dark Magic Region.

These official members had all signed a contract with the Dark Magic Region. They were not allowed to leave the Dark Magic Region without the Dark Magic Region’s consent. As such, they must now move together with the Dark Magic Region to Subzero Snowfield.

As for the entry-level Spell Casters, some of them chose to move together with the Dark Magic Region while a portion of them chose to leave. They were not bound by any contract, so they had all the freedom they needed to make a decision.

Most of the Spell Casters had gathered in the square. Merlin studied each ad every one of the Spell Casters. The number of Spell Casters in the Dark Magic Region was not a lot. There was just over two hundred of them.

These two hundred over people were all the Spell Casters of the Dark Magic Region. They were also the hope of the Dark Magic Region!

Wizard Seymour possessed a strong organizational ability. He had arranged all the Spell Casters in an orderly manner and tucked all kinds of resources into the rings. The entire Resources Tower appeared to be almost completely emptied out with the exception of some huge Runic Magic Circles and some immovable items. Those would be left behind in the Dark Magic Region.

Under the leadership of Wizard Seymour, the Dark Magic Region officially began their move!

“Master, we have already arrived outside the Dark Magic Region’s Runic Magic Circle. The current Wilson family size is not small. I have brought about three hundred people along...”

Wizard Banmou’s voice reverberated from the contract. Merlin was speechless. The Wilson family alone had more than three hundred people in it. They outnumbered the entire population of the Dark Magic Region.

However, most of the people in the Wilson family were ordinary people. These ordinary people might not be able to survive so easily in Subzero Snowfield, but these people were mostly Old Wilson’s heavy armored knights who were originally brought from Blackwater City. Them as well as some new recruits were all Old Wilson’s prized possessions. It was impossible to leave them behind.

Merlin felt helpless too. If they were three hundred people in the family, so be it. The most he would have to do was to he personally create a gigantic Runic Magic Circle to create an environment that was suitable for ordinary people to live in when they get to Subzero Snowfield.

“Banmou, you wait with them there. The people from Dark Magic Region will be coming out soon. I’ve already mentioned it to Wizard Seymour, and he had agreed for the Wilson family to move with the Dark Magic Region. I’ll be outside soon.”

Once Merlin finished speaking, he kept away the contract and got ready to leave Dark Magic Region.

However, mysterious runes began to appear before Merlin. The next moment, the black cat Didimoss appeared before Merlin.

“Sir Didimoss?”

Merlin frowned. He could not fathom why Didimoss would make an appearance at a time like this. Didimoss was the spirit of a Runic Magic Circle, so it could only stay within the confines of the Runic Magic Circle. It could not leave at all.
