Volume 4: The Cataclysm Chapter 55: The Destroyer
As the manager of the Dragon Library, every area of this island is indeed under Fati's control.
However, Marvin, who was enlightened by the Dragon Soul, knew that there was an area that even Fati could not control!
That is the sea of nothingness beyond the island.
The Sea of Nothingness appears to be an ocean, but in reality, it is an intermediary space separating the Library from the outer planes.
This space is somewhat similar to the shadow plane.
It acts as a shield and protection, preventing creatures from the outside world from entering the library, and by wandering in this space, Marvin can effectively avoid Fati's eyes and ears.
However, there are still risks, and there may be many unknown existences lurking in this area.
What's more, the Dragon Library is equivalent to a half-plane, and there are always some miscellaneous things on the edge of the plane.
But at this time Fati had the advantage of time and place, so Marvin could only take a risk.
Sure enough, he succeeded.
When his shadow rushed into the sea of nothingness, he clearly felt that the flying knife formation that had been following him closely on the island had lost its target.
Fati lost track of Marvin.
The Sea of Nothingness is not a real ocean. It is very difficult for Marvin to move as if he were in the void.
He moved very slowly under his own power.
So he did not go deep into the Sea of Nothingness, but appeared vaguely on the edge of the coastline!
From time to time, he ran wildly on the land for a while, and after being discovered by Fati, he disappeared into the sea of nothingness.
…
Such an action made the dragon wizard extremely angry.
She shouted, "You think you're smart, but you're actually courting death!"
"Any space storm can tear you apart!"
Her voice echoed along the coastline, and seemed somewhat ethereal and strange as the flying knife formation disappeared and appeared.
Apparently, this guy was also very cunning, and she had been hiding herself the whole time.
Fati has rich combat experience. She identified Marvin's fighting style at a glance, so she kept herself hidden.
The dragon wizards have a unique talent in this regard - whether it is casting spells while moving or casting spells in stealth, this is the natural advantage of dragon language witchcraft.
But Marvin was equally cunning, and he didn't believe Fati's threats at all.
If there really is a space storm, will the other party be kind enough to remind me?
Space storms and arcane interference are indeed terrifying phenomena that often occur between planes - but they will never appear in the dragon's library, otherwise this island would not have been preserved for a long time. When the dragon god Lockhart created this demiplane, he would definitely not have made a shoddy project. The edge of the plane here should still be safe.
But Fati did not dare to go deep into the sea of nothingness.
This proves that there might be something in this sea that even she is afraid of.
Marvin's figure was like lightning, appearing and disappearing around the coastline. This not only made it difficult for Fati to locate his presence, but also allowed him to catch him by surprise.
He had already started to sense the earth, wanting to find Fati's exact location and kill him in one fell swoop, but the dragon wizard was very cunning and never revealed any traces.
Marvin also has a lot of experience dealing with this type of spellcaster opponent.
That is to trick the opponent's position by constant movement!
His movements were not random, but he used the place where he appeared to induce the flying knife formation and other spells.
Although Fati is scheming and has been using spells such as the Flying Knife Array that will not reveal his hiding place, the distance at which he can control the spell is limited.
Marvin only needs to find a rough range and then focus on [sensing the earth] within that range.
In this way, he killed many legendary wizards in PK battles in his previous life.
He just didn't believe that Fati's combat experience was richer than his!
While constantly moving, Marvin also discovered something strange in the Sea of Nothingness.
This ocean is so quiet.
Although it was nothingness, there should be some small creatures similar to phantom demons, but Marvin didn't see any.
In the dark ocean, there are often several thick chains floating by.
There are also many terrifying and gloomy runes engraved on these chains.
The runes are very complex, including dragon language, high elven language, and even some spells commonly used by ancient wizards.
With Marvin's knowledge, he could only make a rough judgment to this extent.
After all, his main focus is still on the battle with Fati.
What kind of creatures are locked at the end of these chains?
If it is a creature that even the manager Fati is afraid of, then why would the Dragon God Hartson lock it here?
This is the Dragon Library, an important place, a place for knowledge inheritance - although most of the dragons' knowledge is inherited through bloodline memories, the disadvantage of this kind of inheritance is that it is incomplete, so a library is still necessary.
Just as Marvin was dealing with Fati's spells and swimming around the edge of the island, he finally saw the huge monster in the sea!
At the end of countless chains, a creature taller than the Mechanical Titan lay quietly with its eyes closed in the depths of darkness.
His body was covered with black algae, his sharp fangs protruded from the gap between his cut lips, and there were countless scars on his face and body!
Even with his eyes closed, he could still make people feel scared enough.
"What the hell is this?!"
Ma Wen was secretly shocked.
Ever since his will had been strengthened by the witch's tears, there were few things that frightened him.
He believed he could withstand the shock from the Devil Lord.
But this horrifying creature sleeping in the sea of nothingness gave him an extremely shocking feeling.
The chains were already very thick, but compared to his body, they looked like thin ropes.
"No wonder Fati is so afraid of this sea of nothingness. If this creature wakes up..."
Marvin couldn't imagine it.
The stronger you are, the stronger your sense of crisis is.
With his strength, even without using any spells or judgment skills, he can feel the power of the guy in front of him.
It was a breath of destruction.
"Forget it, let's get ashore quickly. It's never good to cause trouble."
Marvin took a few glances and finally looked away.
The Sea of Nothingness gave him a feeling of oppression for the first time.
At the same time, he also roughly determined Fati's position!
It's time to take action!
…
Forest area.
Fati's figure was also moving quickly.
She used dragon shapeshifting to transform herself into a leaping squirrel, then created a false mana mirror image.
Through this mirror, she can maintain the continuous operation of the flying knife formation.
She believed this would fool Marvin.
Sure enough, when the hateful human came out of the Sea of Nothingness, he immediately ran towards the magical mirror.
Fati sneered in his heart.
Because she saw that Marvin's face was very pale.
Most likely, he was frightened by the terrifying existence in the sea?
The horror of [The Destroyer] is simply not something that an ordinary legendary figure can contend with. Fortunately, this kid was smart enough not to wake it up, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
Thinking of this, Fati became even angrier.
This hateful and greedy human dared to invade the dragon clan’s forbidden area. He must be cut into pieces.
While she was thinking this, Marvin had already quickly approached the magical mirror.
She could even clearly see that his scimitar had been drawn, as if he was ready to kill the magical mirror!
The time is now!
Fati was very proud, and a great immobilization spell was ready, ready to be thrown out at any time.
However, at this moment, the sky suddenly darkened - in fact, not only the sky, but her entire body was suddenly in complete darkness!
A cold voice sounded beside her ear:
"Even if you turn into a squirrel, the stench of dragon dung on your body cannot be covered up..."
The next second, a piercing pain hit Fati's nerves.
In an instant , the advanced transfiguration technique failed, and a terrifying spear nailed her directly to the tree!
…
Before going to the island, Marvin had already noticed the magical mirror.
The young assassin was certainly gullible.
But an experienced killer will follow the clues and find the mastermind behind the magic mirror.
These methods of the legendary wizard are textbook fighting styles, and Marvin is already very familiar with them.
The one heading towards the mirror image was naturally a shadow clone.
After becoming the Lord of Darkness, many of Marvin's skills have been greatly enhanced, such as the shadow clone and the [Eternal Night] he just threw out!
Shadow clones can be used more often, and their effects are more similar.
As for the powerful control skill Eternal Night, it can cover a large area in the night!
No matter how calm a person is, when the surrounding environment suddenly falls into eternal night, some errors in judgment and emotional fluctuations will occur.
Marvin could only roughly determine a general area, but at the moment when night fell forever, Fati's emotional fluctuations were captured by the sensing earth.
What follows is simple hunting.
Nightsong allows Marvin to move quickly in the night.
The one who accomplished the killing in one fell swoop was not Qingye, but the weeping sky!
This dragon-slaying spear is Marvin's greatest asset in daring to confront the dragon wizard.
At the beginning, the reason why he didn't want to go against Fati was because the servant of the legendary wizard was too troublesome.
God knows how many times this girl can be reborn. No normal human would want to fight her.
But the moment Fati appeared in front of him, he suddenly realized that the ugly woman in front of him was a dragon!
Dragon wizards inherited the advantages of dragons, and naturally also inherited their disadvantages.
The weeping sky strangles the bloodline of dragons and targets all creatures related to dragons!
This shot nailed Fati to the tree, and the latter's divine origin collapsed instantly!
Instant kill!
A large amount of data flashed across Marvin's face.
He simply ignored the experience points and whatnot. What made him most satisfied were the two points of insight he gained!
A dragon wizard can provide two points of perception, which is already quite good. This is equivalent to the perception points given by a high-level servant of God.
As long as he accumulates ten points of perception, he can upgrade the Lord of Darkness to level 2.
Every time a legendary profession is upgraded to a higher level, its strength will increase by leaps and bounds.
Especially for a super powerful legendary profession like the Lord of Night, according to Marvin's experience, it will take at least level three for it to show its most powerful side.
The Lord of Darkness who is above level five can already fight head-on against ordinary gods.
Theoretically, if it can be upgraded to level 9, it is almost the level of a plane guardian, comparable to a powerful god.
But the process is very difficult.
In his previous life, Marvin did not reach that level, so he took another path directly - becoming a god.
After becoming a deity, all attribute panels changed, and the career system was completely transformed into another path.
So unfortunately, he didn't know what the later period of the Lord of Darkness was like.
The road ahead is destined to be explored slowly by yourself.
However, he didn't have much time left.
This gave him some urgency.
…
"Let's find the Book of Wisdom quickly. I don't know what happened to the five-colored dragons, and whether the nightmare realm has been opened."
"As for that black dragon...it's so bold of it to betray me."
A hint of murderous intent flashed in Marvin's eyes.
But I have to admit that Ikalina is much more cunning than her husband.
She just wanted to use Fati's power to kill herself. Even if she failed, she would be fine.
As for Yizaka, she must have guessed that since she had signed a contract with Yizaka, she should not be able to kill him.
What's more, Marvin would not kill Izaka - a black dragon would be a great help to Marvin.
That's why she is so fearless.
However, she underestimated Marvin's strength - and his vengeful character.
During the next trip to the underground temple, if Marvin bumps into Ikalina, he won't give her a chance to speak!
…
After Fati died, the items on her body fell directly into the void and were destroyed into powder.
Marvin was helpless.
The dragon wizard must be very wealthy, but this old woman is so stingy that she has tied her life to those items.
Once you die, all items including storage devices will be automatically destroyed.
This is the mentality of "You can't get a penny from me even if I die."
In fact, many legendary wizards would do so if conditions permit.
This is one of the reasons why Marvin hates fighting against legendary wizards.
These guys are extremely rich, but there is no benefit in killing them. It's really a rip-off.
…
After taking a casual look at Fati's body and finding nothing as expected, Marvin began to run quickly in the forest.
He ran towards the lake.
If I'm not mistaken, the Book of Wisdom should be hidden there.
The Book of Naaru is a good thing. Marvin already has a lot of clues about the Book of Naaru. He has a hunch that one day he will be able to collect all the clues about the Book of Naaru.
But he wasn't so arrogant as to think he was more powerful than the God of War.
This is a demonic book that would drive even gods mad and self-destruct upon reading it. We still need something to control it.
The Book of Wisdom mentioned in the Dragon Soul is one of them.
Marvin had some vague impression about this treasure. It seemed to be a treasure left behind by the ancient god of wisdom.
It records the wisdom of our ancestors and a lot of knowledge about the laws of the world.
Converted into data, it is a top-grade equipment with at least [Willpower +5].
There was no way Marvin wouldn't get his hands on something like this.
However, just as he was running frantically, the entire island suddenly began to tremble!
Marvin looked at the Sea of Nothingness in some astonishment.
Because the vibration came from the seaside.
The next second, his entire expression changed.
As the sea water began to boil, countless chains broke free automatically and flew into the sky!
“What’s going on!?”
Marvin stared in amazement as the huge creature slowly rose from the sea of nothingness.
The algae on his body peeled off layer by layer, like a mummy unwrapping his shroud!
"My duty is to destroy!"
A thunderous sound exploded in the sky.
The huge creature slowly opened its eyes.
Those eyes were lifeless, as if they were dead.
But unlike the undead, he has the feeling of destroying all life.
At this moment, the Book of Naaru in Marvin's arms became hot again!
This guy seems to be getting more and more active recently. Marvin frowned. Could it be that that bit of divine origin has made his power even stronger?
Marvin quickly opened the book. Before he could ask any questions, lines of words appeared on the book automatically:
【Ha ha ha ha……】
Marvin simply ignored the first line of ridicule, which was full of contempt, sarcasm, and gloating.
[I feel the breath of the Destroyer. You are definitely in big trouble.]
[The Destroyer is the descendant of the legendary God of Destruction who has never appeared before]
[They were imprisoned by the ancient gods to guard their territory]
[Generally speaking, the Destroyer will only be awakened after the guardian of a territory dies, and then...]
【Destroy all living things it sees! 】
…
Marvin suddenly understood.
Although the appearance of the Book of Naaru at this time must have had bad intentions, if it hadn't reminded me, I really wouldn't know the origins of the Destroyer.
He killed Fati, so the Destroyer who was sleeping in the Sea of Nothingness awakened.
This makes sense logically. If even the guardian is dead, then you must have been invaded by the enemy and they will die together with you.
Marvin's mind was racing. The Book of Naaru appeared at this time, and it definitely had its own ideas.
Could it be that he wants the origin of God again?
This time, Marvin would not give it the Origin of God so easily. Although he was not afraid of the Book of Naaru controlling him, he felt that the Book of Naaru was becoming more and more active recently. This was not good news.
It seems necessary to restrict him.
However, the next second, the deal proposed by the Book of Naaru only made Marvin hesitate for two seconds before he accepted it.
The transaction is simple.
The Book of Naaru sensed that there was another page of the Book of Naaru in the Dragon Library, and he asked Marvin to help him get it.
He wanted to devour another page of the Book of Naaru.
As a reward, he can confuse the Destroyer's mind - for three minutes!
Marvin agreed.
Because the Destroyer took the first step, half of the coast collapsed!
If you step on it a few more times, I'm afraid this half plane will collapse!
