Chapter 558: Fusing The Death Element Magical Source
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“You look like you really want to kill me, but I have to apologize to you. I won’t die so easily.”
Watson smiled at Beta.
Just as Beta released a powerful attack to end everything, Watson had used the fusion system to fuse the black and white world formed by the End of All Things spell into his body, allowing him to obtain a portion of the power of death.
It looked like he was attacked by the power of death and collapsed. In reality, he used the power of death to leave the battlefield.
As he spoke, Watson extended his right hand. A wisp of pitch-black fog appeared in his right hand. The souls of the dead danced in it. Sometimes, they turned into faces of despair, exuding an ominous aura of death.
[Starlight-tier energy: Power of Death]
[Ability: can give a living creature the concept of death, causing it to die. No matter what method is used, it can’t be resurrected. It can also cast a curse on living creatures.]
[Additional ability: this energy is produced from the body of a starlight-tier elite, the God of Death. After absorbing enough energy, God of Death’s magic source can be activated in the current world.]
“That is the Power of Death, a higher level of God’s power than the power of laws. Not bad.” The attributes appeared in Watson’s eyes, causing him to nod in satisfaction.
After mastering the Power of Death, as long as he continued to fuse and strengthen that power, he would be able to create the ninth type of magical element in the world. He could bestow that type of element to his family, friends, and subordinates, making them even stronger.
When Beta had invaded and killed over a thousand planetary fortress soldiers, he had intended to use cruel methods to kill Beta so that the elves would not dare to invade again. However, he had changed his mind.
“The elves are just invaders, and they have already given me a new power. If there were more assassins, wouldn’t I become even stronger?”
If Watson had not wanted the Holy Dragon Kingdom to be invaded, then at that moment, he could not wait for the elves to send a few more powerful assassins. That way, the power he would gain from fusing with them would be even stronger.
“The most important thing now is not to think about that. I should just absorb enough death energy from the kingdom and create a source of death energy.”
Having made up his mind, Watson held the Power of Death in one hand and pointed at the ground in front of him with the other. “Fusion system, activate.”
As he made his move, the ground within a radius of several kilometers was covered by a rolling black fog of death. The black fog shot up into the sky and turned into a foggy black pillar.
As the black pillar of light surged, it left behind a mysterious symbol formed by two crossing sickles in the air. It flickered with a dark-red luster. That symbol was the magic symbol of the power of death.
The moment the death element symbol appeared, other elements’ symbols also materialized in the sky. First, there was the earth, fire, water, and wind. Then, there were the more advanced light and dark elements. Above those six were the symbols of chaos, life, and death. Besides the chaos element, the life and death elements were also separated from the basic elements and opposed each other. They emitted strong waves of hostility.
[Congratulations, Master, for fusing a large amount of Power of Death and obtaining the death element magic source.]
[Death element magic source.]
[Ability: has the effect of bestowing the Power of Death onto living creatures. Creatures that cultivate the Power of Death will be able to control the dead and even reverse life and death. This source has just been formed, and the current energy is at the starlight tier.]
When the system notification rang in his ear, a huge black ball appeared above the death element symbol above Watson’s head. The black ball was like the sun’s shadow, and when it appeared, it covered the sun. The earth sank into darkness. At the top of the planetary fortress and even beneath the Holy Dragon Kingdom, all the kings who had died climbed up from the ground and stood in the darkness, silently looking at the top of their heads. They were absorbed by the black sun above their heads.
The other four kingdoms on the continent outside of the Holy Dragon Kingdom also experienced the same changes.
At the Holy Dragon Kingdom’s capital…
“It has been two days since the fortress city launched a war against the elves. His Majesty and Watson have not returned. Antonio, should we go and take a look?”
In the Sword Saint’s Courtyard, Sword Saint Reid was tapping the huge throne before him while asking Antonio.
Antonio was sitting on a bench, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand. He was leaning comfortably on the back of the chair with his eyes closed. He did not even open his eyes when he heard Reid’s words. “Don’t worry. With Watson’s ability, he will be able to deal with the elves! Maybe he has already subdued the elves. We just need to wait for the report to come and go to the front line to congratulate Watson.”
“Antonio, do you feel that after Watson became our disciple, we have become a lot lazier?” Reid stopped what he was doing as he asked that.
They would do all that they could for any battles for their kingdom in the past. At that moment, they were relaxing at home; they did not even go to the frontline to take a look. As Watson’s masters, it was inappropriate for them not to show up and instead let their lone disciple fight.
“Is that so?”
Antonio’s eyes widened in shock. After a long while, he sighed. “It seems to be true. I have become a cripple. Well, it’s all Watson’s fault.”
He had been a wise and famous teacher, and he had taught countless elites. However, after he became Watson’s master, his disciple had learned his skills instantly. On the other hand, the moves and weapons that Watson had fused were very tempting to him. They were the ones who had to go to Watson for help.
“If this goes on, we will become useless teachers who rely on our disciples. I think we should go to the front line to take a look. At least, it would be good for us to show our faces in front of everyone.”
“That makes sense.”
Reid and Antonio had planned to leave the Sword Saint’s courtyard when an invisible fluctuation appeared in the sky. The sun was swallowed by something black-colored, and a power that symbolized death swept across the land as thousands of people in the Holy Dragon Kingdom’s capital raised their heads in surprise.
Reid and Antonio were also surprised when they saw the strange phenomenon in the sky. Colorful lines appeared around Antonio, and the light of magic was shining. “It seems like that source of magic contains death elements. In ancient times, death was also an elemental ability in the world. Unfortunately, its source was shattered during the great Battle of the Gods! Who would have thought that the source would be repaired today? It must be Watson. This means that he has created three different types of magical elements.”
“Who would have thought that Watson would have the leisure to fuse new elements on the battlefield? Does that mean that his battle with the elves is going smoothly?” Reid sensed the increasingly dense aura of death in the air, even the kings’ souls were absorbed into that source. Reid said bitterly, “Even if we go there, it seems like we won’t be able to help in that situation.”
Antonio asked, “Then, are we still going?”
Reid hesitated for a moment. “Maybe forget it?”
“Yes, let’s forget it.”
As soon as his voice fell, Antonio and Reid, who had already stood up, sat back down.. One of them held a teacup and slowly took a sip while the other sat on the huge throne.
