One-Eyed Monster-Chapter 503 - 500: Now, Leave It to Us! (End)

Igor's doubts could not stop the progress of events; everything happening before him was peculiar, and any carelessness could lead to a severe blow to either side.

Although Wizard Reed, the Dark Wizard, was alone, with his physical body still some distance away, he was still employing his Dark Arts. This art was bewildering and illusory, but it was like a needle, slowly and leisurely piercing your body, then taking root inside and controlling you.

This was not an Illusion Spell, nor was it a mere phantom; even Wizard Reed himself didn't know what on earth this thing was.

Arts of the Darkness Type had never concerned themselves much with the 'why'; they only looked at the results and the power. As for how they were formed, they never cared.

So, Wizard Reed only knew he could control the things within this art; as for what kind of art it truly was, he wasn't clear.

Boss Willem told him that he could freely use this art without fearing the depletion of Dark Energy; although this art belonged to the Darkness Type, it did not consume their Dark Energy.

Wizard Reed knew what not consuming Dark Energy meant: this art didn't require him to expend too much Spirit Power.

Spirit Power, the origin of myriad arts, and the Darkness Type was no exception.

The art was still in effect, and Wizard Reed could distinctly feel that the opponent lacked full confidence to effectively counter his pressure. The one thing that surprised him was that large bird, which repeatedly fell and rose again, seemingly without the slightest fear.

The appearance of this large bird was already abrupt for Wizard Reed, and now it continually pushed the limits of his understanding.

What on earth could stubbornly raise its head under this degree of pressure?

Ordinary birds couldn't do it; forget birds, even a normal person couldn't.

Wizard Reed continued to apply Spirit Power pressure, knowing it wouldn't be long before those hidden fellows would automatically appear.

He even felt his previous pointless search in Nothingness had been a waste of time. If he had unleashed his Spirit Power for a fight earlier, this wouldn't have happened. Unfortunately, he had relied too much on that art, always thinking he could achieve great things with little effort. In the end, he hadn't expected that his attempt to gain an advantage would backfire spectacularly; those Malice Spirit Entities he had painstakingly collected were almost snatched away by the other party here. If he hadn't become alert, things might have really gotten out of hand.

However, the main reason was his own fault. He had been too excited, thinking that the people of Guru Mountain were nothing special, so he had boldly and unhesitatingly poured the Malice Spirit Entities he had painstakingly collected into this art. He originally thought he could control this art, using it completely at will, but now he discovered he was wrong. He could only deploy this art; he couldn't add his own things into it.

Against ordinary opponents, adding his own will or abilities might still be manageable—no, it should be said he could crush them. But when encountering true experts, his methods were revealed. For example, the two instances of moon-induced high and low tides earlier had directly exposed those Malice Spirit Entities he had forcibly added to the sea.

Originally, he thought he could try to subdue even more Malice Spirit Entities. At the beginning, he also felt it was going smoothly; even the Fossil Key, his target, and the legendary Great Mentor had fallen for his trick.

Thinking about it now, perhaps he was the one who had fallen into someone else's trap. The Great Mentor he had sensed might have just been an illusion; the real Great Mentor might be hidden in the depths, waiting for him to walk into the snare.

At this thought, he couldn't help but break out in a little cold sweat. Truly careless, to have made a mistake common to ordinary people!

As a Wizard of the Darkness Type, he shouldn't have been like this. Moreover, he bore the expectations of Boss Willem. To hastily conquer the secrets of Guru Mountain sounded very tempting, but with just a little thought, one could realize there was something fishy.

How could there be such easy things in this world!

The Great Mentor, long residing in Guru Mountain, was indeed old and cunning, leading him into a ditch from the very beginning...

In fact, Wizard Reed didn't realize that what he was thinking was completely the opposite of reality. The real Great Mentor wasn't as cunning as he imagined, and the actual reality wasn't what he thought either. What caused him to stumble wasn't the Great Mentor and those experienced Soldiers. The ones who nearly made him lose his collected Malice Spirit Entities weren't seasoned, cunning individuals like the Great Mentor and his group. Instead, it was a few youths who hadn't even established themselves in the professional world.

Wizard Reed could never have imagined that the person he initially trapped was the Great Mentor himself. Yet now, even though he could still feel the same aura and Spirit Power, he was unwilling to believe it was the Great Mentor.

Excessive caution had made him lose much of his initial judgment, and what caused all this was entirely Igor and Kadi's disruptive plan.

The Great Mentor had watched for a long time, thought for a long time, and reflected for a long time amidst this. It wasn't until he saw Igor and Stan Sol gasping for breath under the Spirit Power pressure that he came to his senses. At that moment, he finally realized these youths needed his help.

So, with a grand wave of his hand, he stood up from among the crowd. Once his Spirit Power spread out, all the creatures of Guru Mountain knew what to do next.

The Inner World Igor created thus vanished. Igor, who was already under pressure, didn't have much Spirit Power left to perfect this Inner World anyway. The Great Mentor's arrival at this moment happened to free him, so he no longer needed to spend Spirit Power creating every detail of this Inner World.

Just as the Great Mentor and the others had said, the subsequent matters were to be left to them.

The Great Mentor used the Ant Connection Spell to pull in all those who couldn't access the Inner World. Although they only had visuals, they could at least know what was happening within the Inner World. He replaced Igor, becoming the main controller of this Inner World that Igor had originally created.

Sky-turning waves, sky-covering dark clouds, and thunderbolts that struck from time to time were all avoided by the Great Mentor with simple methods.

However, that large bird kept fighting in the air. Even when several of the Great Mentor's goshawks flew around it, covering it, it was still unwilling to leave. This was indeed very strange.

Within the Inner World, both Kuren and Yuga deployed their specialties. Yuga's storm directly countered the swirling sea waves. For a moment, Kadi couldn't tell which side was which. Lightning constantly struck down, but Kuren's Spirit Painting could always absorb the Lightning with ease.

Although Joseph couldn't enter the Inner World, his vision allowed him to see everything happening in the Inner World. With his Eagle Eye, everything became much more certain.

This was a group of dependable reinforcements, who resolved the disadvantageous situation as soon as they arrived. A scene of evenly matched forces was immediately displayed.
