Chapter 727: The Matrix Vanishes

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Merlin shot a glance at the Soul Medallion behind him. At the moment, its glow was much dimmer. Merlin knew that this was because the Soul Medallion had been slightly damaged.

If he died two more times, the Soul Medallion would not be of any more use. One Soul Medallion could only resurrect him three times. This was more precious than any treasure.

“The Lord God of Light!”

Merlin looked toward the sky. A lofty Lord God was an ultimate existence of the Void Zone. Now, he had come personally to kill Merlin. This was something Merlin had never expected.

“What a great loss I’ve suffered. The Atlan civilization’s empire-level warship, the martial arts robots, the guardians left by Aruba, the illusion bead, and the rest, everything’s gone...”

Merlin was incomparably gloomy. Although he could be resurrected, all the treasures he had on him were gone, especially the Atlan civilization’s empire-level warship, which was comparable to an Honored Legend.

There was also the Illusory World within the Illusion Bead. That would have been the foundation for Merlin to create the Illusory World in the future. With a ready-made Illusory World, Merlin could have skipped the most difficult part of condensing an Illusory World.

If these treasures had been destroyed just like that, even Merlin would be filled with boiling resentment.

Having used the Soul Medallion so soon, Merlin was somewhat at a loss. He did not know if the Lord God of Light was still waiting out there. Therefore, he dared not leave the Glorious Land again but instead waited silently.

Merlin could only wait for the Lord God of Light to leave. To block an attack from the Lord God of Light – was there such a treasure in the Void Zone? Perhaps there was but it would be extremely precious, with only a few such items in the Void Zone.

It should be known that the so-called ultimate existences of the Void Zone were not essentially different from Great Lords. Ultimate existences were more powerful because they had begun to make contact with the natural order, devoting their lives to merge with the natural order. Their bodies thus become a part of the Void Zone’s natural order. The more powerful the natural order, the greater the power they could mobilize.

Therefore, to fight against ultimate existences, one was directly fighting against the Void Zone’s natural order.

Of course, different ultimate existences would master the natural order differently. As for those ultimate existences which were truly powerful, they were rather scary. In a rage, a sweep of the natural order’s power was enough to annihilate millions and millions of dimensions.

There was one desolate territory in the Void Zone, which was genuinely a void, containing nothing but empty space. According to rumors, back then, a frightening ultimate existence had created that space in a fit of fury.

There might be a treasure able to withstand the power of the natural order, even if it simply contained a bit of the natural order’s power. However, Merlin had never heard of one, much less found one in the Glorious Land.

Thus, Merlin could only wait.

Time passed by bit by bit, and soon, it had been half a month. To powerful Spell Casters, half a month was nothing much, flashing by in the blink of an eye.

However, within this half a month, Merlin had gradually recalled the details of the moment he was killed by the Lord God of Light. At that time, he was truly killed by the Lord God of Light, but at the last moment, he seemed to have heard a familiar voice.

“Arcane Wizard Setoh?”

Merlin carefully thought about it. That voice was similar to Arcane Wizard Setoh’s. It was just that Merlin had no way to prove it. According to his deduction, since such a huge commotion had occurred at the Glorious Land, it was indeed likely that Arcane Wizard Setoh, as one of the three Great Arcane Wizards, would appear.

“It’s better to wait longer.”

Even if he had guessed rightly, Merlin was unwilling to take the risk. If he encountered the Lord God of Light again, he would have to die another time.

Therefore, Merlin continued waiting for another month. It was then that a problem occurred to him.

“The Matrix?”

Merlin thought about a very serious problem. Before he died, the Matrix was fused into his body. Even after it became the intelligent core of the empire-level warship, Merlin was still its owner.

However, after he had died once, was there still the Matrix?

Soon, Merlin got his answer. The Matrix did not respond, which meant that it was truly no longer within Merlin’s body. He just did not know if this would affect the Matrix which was on the empire-level warship.

“The Matrix is gone.”

Merlin mumbled miserably. He had very special feelings toward the Matrix. It was because of the Matrix that Merlin could reach to where he was today. After Merlin gradually outgrew his use of the Matrix, he felt a hint of worry deep in his heart about the Matrix.

He started to ponder why would his Matrix transform in such a manner? Why was after he became a Great Wizard and his Mind Power was even more terrifying, he was still unable to locate where exactly the Matrix was fused?

Faced with an unknown power, whether a Spell Caster or a Normie would still be frightened and worried. Merlin was no exception. He had begun to worry if the Matrix contained secrets not known to anyone. Could that possibly be of harm to himself?

This was a thought that occasionally occurred to him but now, after he was killed by the Lord God of Light and resurrected by the Soul Medallion, he had parted from the Matrix by accident. Merlin’s heart was a complex tangle of emotions, not knowing to rejoice or mourn.

“Phew...”

Merlin finally let out a long sigh, and stared at the sky, whispering, “No matter what, a long time has passed. Maybe the Lord God of Light has left. I should go out and take a look.”

Even if there was still a certain risk, he must still go out eventually. Moreover, there was still a slight hope in Merlin’s heart. Perhaps his ring was not destroyed. Perhaps the Lord God of Light overlooked those treasures of his, and his ring was still in the Void Zone. Who could tell?

Although this was a slim hope, Merlin still was eager to leave the Glorious Land once more. Nonetheless, for his safety, he did not plan to leave the Glorious Land directly. Instead, he would open a gap in the seal, and allow his Mind Power to investigate the situation outside. After determining it was safe, he would then leave the Glorious Land.

“Break.”

Merlin’s full Magic Power surged ahead and soon split a gap within the seal. His vast and vigorous Mind Power instantly gushed out of the Glorious Land, starting to inspect the Void Zone.

...

In the pitch-dark, silent Void Zone, the three Great Arcane Wizards had waited for more than a month.

“Augustus, the mind imprint on that ring still hasn’t vanished? It’s been more than a month.”

Wizard Ceci opened his eyes and looked toward Augustus. Merlin’s ring was in Augustus’ charge. Of course, the three Arcane Wizards would not have any desire toward the Spatial Ring of a young Wizard. It was merely a way to ascertain whether Merlin was still alive.

“The mind imprint is still here. Now I’m more certain that the Lord God of Light had merely killed of an avatar of Merlin. The Lord God of Light has made an error of judgment. He came here himself but only killed an avatar, haha.”

Augustus could not help but laugh. They had crossed paths with the Lord God of Light for so long, yet had never seen the Lord God of Light commit such an embarrassing mistake in these thousands of years.

“That’s right, that’s right. Merlin still has a trick like this, resulting in the Lord God of Light’s mistaken killing? However, it’s been such a long time. Could his real person still be in the Glorious Land?”

Arcane Wizard Setoh asked rather doubtfully.

“He should still be in the Glorious Land. After all, his avatar was killed by the Lord God of Light, which must’ve frightened him. He would surely hide for some time before coming out. We’ll wait longer.”

Wizard Augustus was in no hurry. If the three of them had not joined forces to seal the Glorious Land, it would not be so troublesome. They could just enter the Glorious Land to search for Merlin.

However, if it were not for the seal, the Lord God of Light would have destroyed the Glorious Land long ago.

Therefore, they could only wait.

“I wonder how long will Merlin hide? Huh? Is that a Mind Power investigation?”

Arcane Wizard Setoh’s heart leaped, and he shot a look at the Glorious Land. Besides Arcane Wizard Setoh, Ceci and Augustus seemed to notice it as well.

No matter how shapeless or soundless Mind Power was, it could not be concealed from the Ultimate Arcane Wizards, so they would instantly notice it.

It was not just Augustus and the other two who were gleefully surprised. Currently, in the Glorious Land, Merlin, who was stealthily using his Mind Power to observe the situation outside, was also joyful and surprised.

Naturally, his Mind Power had detected Augustus and the rest. He did not recognize the other two but he had the utmost familiarity with Arcane Wizard Setoh.

“It really is Arcane Wizard Setoh. It should be safe!”

Just as Merlin was about to leave the Glorious Land right away, he suddenly thought of another problem.

“They’ve clearly seen me dying from the Lord God of Light’s attack. How do I explain that now?”

This involved the problem of explaining. He must not reveal the Soul Medallion so easily. After all, anyone would wish to get their hands on it. Perhaps Merlin could not seize Veron’s Soul Medallion because he had no way to do so.

However, Arcane Wizards were ultimate existences. They might seize the Soul Medallion for their own use. Even though he trusted Arcane Wizard Setoh, when it came to the matter of one’s life, he still had to be prudent.

“The matter of the Soul Medallion must not be revealed. Even my resurrection must not be mentioned. After all, even the ultimate Arcane Wizards have no way of resurrecting anyone. This is something that reverses the natural order.”

Merlin racked his brains, and thought about it carefully, and his brow gradually loosened.

“It looks like I can only explain it with an avatar, especially since I can use Hallucinating spells to create a simple Mind Avatar.”

Merlin thought it over in detail. This was the best plan.

After he had decided how to explain himself, Merlin immediately tore apart the seal and exited in one leap, returning to the Void Zone once more. However, once he left the Glorious Land, unless an Ultimate Arcane Wizard assisted him, Merlin would have to die again to return, relying on the Soul Medallion in the Glorious Land to be resurrected.

Otherwise, he would never be able to return to the Glorious Land.

“Whoosh.”

Merlin’s figure appeared in the Void Zone. Three pair of eyes immediately turned toward him.

“It really is Merlin. You’re not dead! Haha, even the Lord God of Light was fooled by your use of an avatar.”

Arcane Wizard Setoh was the happiest. He was the one who sent Merlin into the Glorious Land, so naturally, he did not wish for Merlin to be killed by the Lord God of Light. Now that he saw Merlin was safe and unharmed, he sighed in relief.

“That’s right. You’re the first one who managed to fool the Lord God of Light. This is your Spatial Ring. It’s undamaged. Now, it’s time for it to return to its original owner.”

A black-robed Spell Caster with an indifferent expression immediately tossed a ring from his hand. Merlin’s eyes brightened, his face bursting into an elated look. Naturally, he could tell at a glance that this was his Spatial Ring.

Therefore, he quickly took the ring in his hand and checked the contents within.
