Merlin’s spell fusion, particularly the fusion of Sixth-level spells, contained terrifying might. Compared to the initial fusion of Fifth-level spells, its power was further augmented, on par with most Ninth-level Spell Casters who had fused two Spell Models.
After the smoke and dust had dispersed completely, the Greater Demon’s figure was revealed. At the moment, he had completely crashed down from his Berserk state. The Dora Demon Tribe was a very peculiar civilization. They were able to become Berserk, after which their strength would increase many times over. Once Berserk had faded, they would resume their initial appearance.
This Greater Demon, with Berserk, was at most equivalent to a Spell Caster who had combined two Spell Models. His defensive capabilities were formidable indeed, able to withstand Merlin’s spell fusion, only his Berserk state was now nullified.
“Swish.”
A smile tugged at the corner of Merlin’s mouth once again. His use of spell fusion was not just a one-time thing. He was able to use it ten times.
Thus, he pushed with both hands, and another spell fusion whistled as it flew toward the Greater Demon.
“Boom!”
The insane explosive strength engulfed the Greater Demon in an instant, following which the life force of the Greater Demon vanished quickly. The disappearance of his force meant that this Greater Demon had been thoroughly exterminated.
“Phew…”
Merlin unleashed a long sigh of relief. He was still rather pressured when faced with a Greater Demon.
Following the Greater Demon’s death, the remaining ordinary Dora Demons quickly made their escape, scattering in all directions. Merlin’s Darkness Eye also absorbed a large supply of powerful negative energy. This was left behind by the Greater Demon which Merlin had killed. The stronger the demon was, the greater the negative energy they had left behind.
Merlin was even already able to vaguely sense that Darkness Eye was not far from its fifth form.
At the moment, the ten or so young Wizards wore surprised expressions, and were even slightly stupefied. The abilities which Merlin had displayed far exceeded their imaginations.
It turned out that Merlin’s identity as a Mind Power Master was only secondary. It did not mean that Merlin’s Occult Mind Spell was stronger. In fact, his stronger technique was his spell. Moreover, being able to fuse spells at the stage of a Fifth-level Spell Caster was something that could only be accomplished by those genius freaks of the legends.
After a moment, these Wizards all came before Merlin to express their gratitude.
“We thank you both Wizards for coming to our rescue. We’re Spell Casters who are taking part in the Galaxy Grand Alliance’s competition. Yet, we didn’t expect that the minute we entered the Bloodshed Universe, we would encounter this group of Dora Demons and fall into peril.”
One of the Spell Casters who was wearing a gray robe stood out and introduced the group to Merlin.
Merlin furrowed his brows. “The Galaxy Grand Alliance? I’ve never heard of it. It must be rather far away.”
“The Galaxy Grand Alliance is a great distance away, of course, separated from Arcane City by an unknown number of dimensions. With a casting tool of average speed, one might need more than a few years to reach there. However, the Galaxy Grand Alliance can be considered a relatively large faction, comprising nearly twenty dimensions controlled by ten or so individuals, forming a colossal faction.”
The one who spoke was Wizard Midnight. He had a certain understanding of the Galaxy Grand Alliance.
Nonetheless, Wizard Midnight’s words had revealed something. The ten or so young Wizards were not dumb. They immediately grasped the meaning of Wizard Midnight’s words.
“You’re… You’re both Wizards from Arcane City?”
At the mention of “Arcane City”, the ten or so young Wizards became solemn even in their breathing. It was not just these ten or so Spell Casters, but even Wizard Hugo at the side, who had been indifferent to the peril of the other Spell Casters, quickly shifted his gaze to Merlin and Midnight.
In the eyes of any Spell Caster, Arcane City was an unsurpassed sacred place. Every single Spell Caster who came from Arcane City was a fearsome genius Wizard.
Even Wizard Hugo had joined the competition of the Galaxy Grand Alliance because of his wholehearted desire to enter Arcane City.
Merlin nodded. “That’s right, we came from Arcane City to the Bloodshed Universe to gain experience.”
“It’s really Arcane City! Haha, to think that we’ll meet the genius Wizards of Arcane City in the Bloodshed Universe. In the past, there were merely rumors that one would encounter the genius Wizards of Arcane City in the Bloodshed Universe if one was lucky. I didn’t think we’ll actually encounter them…”
“The prodigious Wizards of Arcane City are impressive indeed, able to wipe out this group of Dora Demons so casually. Even the Greater Demon was killed. Unlike some Wizards, who wish so badly to join Arcane City, thinking that they’re some genius, when in fact, they aren’t even worth mentioning in comparison with the genius Spell Casters of Arcane City.”
These Wizards were, of course, talking about Hugo, and Wizard Hugo’s face turned gloomy. He clenched his fist tightly and said nothing. Instead, he flew off, leaving all of a sudden.
“That’s right – back when you were all trapped by these Dora Demons, why didn’t you leave the Bloodshed Universe?”
Merlin asked, puzzled. Before he came to the Bloodshed Universe, he was informed that if he was in danger and overpowered by his enemies, all he had to do was to wish for it, and he would immediately leave the Bloodshed Universe and return to Arcane City. There was no need for him to stay on for a full ten days.
“How can we leave so conveniently? Accessing the passage to the Bloodshed Universe alone took up a great amount of energy of the Great Legends in the Grand Alliance. How can they bring us away so easily? Perhaps only the Ultimate Arcane Wizards of the myths are able to pull off such techniques.”
These Wizards looked admiringly at Merlin. Arcane City was different indeed. Even if one encountered danger, one could leave at any time.
Merlin gradually understood as well. This was a protective measure for the Spell Casters of Arcane City. After all, the Potential Wizards of Arcane City could be considered the future of the Spell Caster civilization among the countless dimensions.
Therefore, every single Potential Wizard was very valuable. They would not let a Potential Wizard die in the Bloodshed Universe so easily.
“O’ Wizards, I wonder if we can follow you both up until the ten days are up before leaving this place? We’ve thought about it carefully, and realized the Bloodshed Universe is far too dangerous, not something we can handle at all. We don’t hope to gain anything else from this competition, only to leave the Bloodshed Universe in one piece.”
The ten or so young Wizards shot hopeful looks at Merlin.
Merlin furrowed his brows and looked toward Wizard Midnight, who said calmly, “We’ve already been in the Bloodshed Universe for three days, and will return to Arcane City in seven days.”
“That’s alright, you can return after the seven days. We’ll tough it out for the remaining three days, and should be able to hold on that long.”
After coming to the Bloodshed Universe and encountering the Dora Demon Tribe, these Spell Casters had completely given up on the competition, only wishing to return to the Galaxy Grand Alliance. Following behind two Arcane City Wizards like Merlin and Midnight would provide them with utmost security.
“In that case, all of you can tag along.”
Wizard Midnight nodded, following which he, along with Merlin, led the ten or so young Wizards to continue their wanderings in the vast Bloodshed Universe.
