End of the Magic Era

Chapter 1440: Return

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

While Dereksey was feeling proud of himself, a nasty scream spread out from the collapsing darkness behind him. It sounded as if the man’s throat had been cut a million times. Whoever heard the voice would want to choke its master.

“Merlin, damn you, Merlin. This isn’t over…”

Enderfa’s scream of fear was spreading out even in the collapsing darkness.

In the center of the darkness, the space was collapsing. However, in the middle of the darkness that seemed to be swallowing even the light, there was a wheel on which pieces of brilliant jewelry were embedded.

A hand which had narrow, long fingers grabbed the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel, and held back the collapsing darkness, making it impossible for it to fully close.

The wheel was spinning madly, and Enderfa emerged from the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel with three faces. He screamed desperately and activated the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel crazily.

The space gate suddenly collapsed when it was half open. Lin Yun and the others were caught between the Plane of the Undead and the Kingdom of Nightmares.

The Kingdom of Nightmares had already melted into the Plane of the Undead, and they would unlikely be squeezed to death. However, there might be two possibilities in the end.

They would either be trapped here or be forever lost…

Lin Yun, who knew that something unexpected might happen, was already prepared to deal with the crisis.

Lin Yun wasn’t too panicked because of the emergency. Although Agalon had yet to ignite the God Fire, he was already able to change some laws.

It was only a matter of time for him to ignite the God Fire.

Alonzo, as Agalon’s junior brother, had competed with him their entire life. Also, thanks to his magic tools that boasted strange abilities, he was no weaker than Agalon and much stronger than others at his level in a real battle.

Now that those two people were here, even if the King of the Undead came in person, there was still a good chance that they could escape.

However, Lin Yun didn’t see it coming that whoever was waiting for him seemed to know the gate very well. The guy changed the framework of the gate so that it would break when it was impossible for them to go back. They were stuck in between.

The Kingdom of Nightmares was different from other planes. The time and space here were completely different. If they were stuck here, it would be a major problem.

All the calculations would’ve taken even Lin Yun a lot of time. Also, this gate had been built according to future designs. He didn’t expect it to be broken so easily by someone in this era.

The gate ahead of him collapsed in the most destructive blast. They were almost hopeless.

At the critical moment, Lin Yun stuck the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel in the last crevice, and stopped it from closing. After they weathered the destructive storm, it would be possible to open the crevice again.

If the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel hadn’t been upgraded into an Extraordinary Magic Tool, it would’ve been destroyed if used to resist the blast. But even though it was an Extraordinary Magic Tool, the gems on it were still dimming and even falling apart.

Enderfa almost peed his pants. Those gems were not ordinary, but gathered with laws and elements. They were the foundation of the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel as an Extraordinary Magic Tool. If they crumbled, the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel would surely no longer be an Extraordinary Magic Tool.

The decline meant destruction. Enderfa, who had been completely bound to the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel, would be destroyed along with it.

Enderfa was unaware of anything that happened in the Kingdom of Nightmares. When he was summoned, he found that he was already on the verge of death. It was already remarkable enough that he wasn’t terrified…

“Merlin, damn it. Where’s your Book of Death? Use your Book of Death and Book of Ten Thousand Mantras. There’s also Xiuban! Summon Xiuban already! Let him handle this…”

“Where’s Xiuban’s daughter? Ask Marianna to come out…”

“Damn it, why is it just me?”

All of Enderfa’s three faces were screaming in fear, trying to get the others involved in this…

Lin Yun actually wanted to use the Book of Death, which was his most powerful weapon at this moment. However, it had just suppressed the Chapter of Blood, which contained a complicated soul. If he were to use the Book of Death, the soul would certainly cause trouble.

The Book of Ten Thousand Mantras wasn’t handy, either. In the crisis a moment earlier, he didn’t have enough time to think…

At the very least, the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel looked a lot sturdier than the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras…

If the crevice was opened before the destructive blast ebbed, the space here would completely collapse. Now that the destructive blast had mostly ebbed, Agalon took action.

He didn’t cast any spell. He simply raised his hand, and all the destructive power near the crevice was forced to leave.

It was not magic power or extraordinary power. The law of space in that place had been changed so that the distance between the destructive power and the crevice became infinite. It seemed to have been pushed away.

Alonzo gloomily took out a silver mirror, on which dense strange patterns had been engraved.

“Transfer everybody here to the other side,” Alonzo spoke to one side of the two-sided mirror.

After saying that, Alonzo unleashed a terrifying amount of magic power, which was swallowed by the mirror before it could burst out.

Then, the mirror was turned around, and Lin Yun felt that he was standing on the other side of the crevice. Still, the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel was supporting the crevice, and stopping it from closing.

He took off the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel from the crevice, which quickly closed.

Having no time to complain, Enderfa quickly entered the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel, and examined its damage.

Lin Yun looked at the two-sided mirror in Alonzo’s hand. There was a crack on its surface as the ability that it carried out overloaded it.

It was the Transfer Two-Sided Mirror, which shouldn’t have been discovered until 10,000 years later. The owner of the magic tool was unknown, but it was very practical.

The mirror had two sides. As long as one spoke the result one wanted in the way of a divination, the magic tool would transfer them from one side of the mirror to the other side.

The ability seemed pretty useless, but it was a bane to all barriers. It was possible to travel across all space barriers without destroying them. Anything that could be seen in the mirror could be reached.

That was a very powerful ability.

They all left the dangerous place. The remaining destructive power outside was no big deal at all. None of them could be hurt.

In the distance, Dereksey was quite surprised. The trap that he had carefully prepared didn’t destroy those people.

In particular, when he saw Agalon and Alonzo walking out, even Dereksey realized that it was bad.

There were two level-9 Heaven Rank human mages, and they were at the peak of their stage. Also, there were three level-8 Heaven Rank Saint Alchemists and a level-7 Heaven Rank one…

Even though he was very strong and unafraid of death, he found it quite tricky. In particular, after seeing Lin Yun, Dereksey’s tiny eyes glittered.

Nobody else had entered the Kingdom of Nightmares except the level-47 skeleton king. This human being was that skeleton king!

The Chapter of the Dead. Damn it, that guy has the Chapter of the Dead, and is capable of using all its abilities. The human mage boasts the Book of Death. The Book of Death is in his hands!

Inferring all that had happened, Dereksey trembled. A human mage who had the Book of Death entered the Kingdom of Nightmares and returned alive, rescuing all his companions. Then, there was a terrifying possibility…

It was very possible that the man held the Chapter of Blood, which meant that the man was in possession of Dereksey’s soul…

Although the most critical part of the soul wasn’t in the lich’s body, the lich still had great soul power, which allowed him to infer all the possibilities.

The moment Lin Yun and the others were transferred from the crevice, Dereksey seized the last opportunity to release a curse…

It wasn’t a powerful spell. He didn’t try to kill one or two of them with the last opportunity. He simply sacrificed one of his legs, and instantly cast a curse.

A level-10 curse…

The curse, which didn’t deal any damage, hit Lin Yun and everybody else. It was too fast for anyone to dodge. The curse was so special that as soon as it hit the target, no defenses would be useful. Physical obstruction was pointless.

When the curse hit everybody, they were just freed from the previous crisis, and they were finally ready for battle.

Thanks to their protections and the infinite space that Agalon expanded, everybody just felt a curse, but they didn’t detect any power that hit them.

There was no smoke, elements, or anything…

Alonzo was quite furious. He was lured into the deeper world of the Kingdom of Nightmares, where he relived his life back when he was in the Starry Sky College.

Those were the days when he was eclipsed by Agalon in every aspect. He was still angry when he remembered those days.. Even though he knew that it was just a dream, he still suppressed the old Agalon with the knowledge and abilities he currently had.
