Chapter 901: Chapter 424: Ambush in the Storage Room, Teleportation Trap Device

[The ’Great Sage Osborne’ smiled and avoided your help, struggling to step forward to unlock the defense magic array on the cabinet door...]

Lin Xun was about to take down the sage before him when he suddenly realized something was off.

The storeroom was protected by a magic array, and possessing the character key could at most grant entry through the main door but not open the individual defense magic array on the storage cabinets.

Among the sage’s collection were items capable of resolving coordinates, necessitating the sage’s presence to unlock the defenses. It also made sense for him to retrieve the items from his collection.

However, no matter how you looked at it, the sage was a demigod-level figure. Even if Mage’s bodies were fragile and easy to push over, even in the situation where the blue bars were almost depleted, it didn’t make sense for him to be stumbling and falling while walking, right?

The sage’s appearance was more like that of acting too hard, as if luring him into making a move.

[You suddenly ask, Lord Sage, there is one question you have, and many others are puzzled by it, too. They’ve asked the tutor but have not received an answer.]

[According to historical records, the Stars Evil God has not descended upon the world for at least a thousand years. Why did the Stars Evil God suddenly descend this time and specifically targeted the association and Leon Academy? What is the reason...]

[Upon hearing this, the ’Great Sage Osborne’ stopped opening the cabinet door. A glint flashed in its eyes as it patiently replied, perhaps there is something precious hidden in the academy or a special person, tempting the Stars Evil God to take the risk of exposing their coordinates to make an appearance in the world once again.]

[You notice that the ’Great Sage Osborne’ clenched its fists slightly, and the magic rings studded with spells on its ten fingers, one of which flickered with a strange luster, seemed ready to unleash.]

Lin Xun had a bad feeling and immediately summoned the Shikigami Snow Woman in reality.

[Your Shikigami is currently in a bound state, unable to materialize!]

"Damn it!"

At that moment, countless thoughts raced through his mind.

It was very likely that the disguise of Shikigami Snow Woman was discovered, which was why the game indicated ’bound state’.

It was probably the sudden advent of the Stars Evil God that made the Great Sage realize that this inexplicable crisis must be related to the ’True God’s Messenger’; hence he was able to go back to the office to take a closer look, thereby discovering his escape...

Since the Great Sage had discovered his escape, the other sages serving as vice presidents must surely be informed as well.

Just then, appeared a student who had been poor in studies but turned exceptionally brilliant overnight, and this student was also extremely interested in the spoils that were originally taken from the ’True God’s Messenger’...

Lin Xun took a deep breath.

If that was the case, was the storeroom already surrounded by several sages? 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

He thought the sage was a lamb to be slaughtered, but in reality... he was the one on the chopping board!

[The ’Great Sage Osborne’ saw your eyes flickering constantly and suddenly backed away a few steps. Its magic ring flashed with light, and a multitude of characters sprang up from nowhere, drilling into every corner of the storeroom.]

[In an instant, a restrictive magic array visible to the naked eye covered the entire storeroom! And in front of it, the impenetrable ’Knowledge Light Wall’ also rose!]

[The ’Great Sage Osborne’ flashed a smile and loudly declared, So it really is you, but it’s too late for you to realize now!]

[The other sages have received its message and will arrive shortly. You won’t escape this time, even if you had wings!]

The worst-case scenario did not happen.

Lin Xun thought he had fallen into an ambush and expected that if the Great Sage caught him this time, the imprisonment would be far more stringent than before, leaving him no chance even to end his own life.

Now it seemed that although the ’Great Sage Osborne’ was suspicious of his identity, it did not immediately summon other sages to join it.

Instead, it first came to the storeroom to confirm his identity before calling for the other sages.

This obviously showed ’Osborne’s’ immense confidence in his own strength, convinced he could match the True God’s Messenger in a 1V1 confrontation without being at a disadvantage.

"I must resolve the fight before the other sages arrive!"

[You possess the Shell of the ’Son of the Initial Fire of Desire’!]

[You raise the ’Sword of the Bloody King’, pointing its tip at the ’Great Sage Osborne’!]

[As the blood light flared violently, the dignified oath of judgment echoed through the storeroom...]

[In this judgment!]

[The ’Seeker of Knowledge, Great Sage Osborne,’ is a heretic who has turned against the True God!]

[Despite the obstruction of the ’Knowledge Light Wall,’ the negative magic called ’Depths of Despair Shackles’ still took effect!]

[The form of the ’Great Sage Osborne’ suddenly sank as if weighed down by invisible shackles, his movements heavy and sluggish.]

[You have successfully inflicted the ’Intense Weakness’ debuff on the enemy!]

[However, the ’Great Sage Osborne’ suddenly let out a cold laugh, saying that while it did not know what special magic you used, such magic that weakens physical strength is nearly useless against a scholar of knowledge.]

[What makes the scholars powerful is not physical strength, but mental power!]

[Protected by the ’Knowledge Light Wall,’ it struggled to lift its magic wand, chanting a complex and profound spell...]

[You’re very familiar with the spell’s opening syllables, the ultimate magic spell secret of the scholars—’Endless Knowledge Flood’!]

[You step forward abruptly, and surging, savage power fills your body. With a twist of your waist and a swing of your arm, the ’Sword of the Bloody King’ slashes out a thick blood light!]

[A thunderous boom!]

[Protected by the defense magic array, the items inside the storeroom remained mostly undamaged. The rock-solid ’Knowledge Light Wall’ flickered twice, its light dimmed but did not immediately shatter.]
