Chapter 904: Chapter 425: The Death of the Sage, Mana Source Stone_2

[As it retreated, another "Knowledge Light Wall" rose up, and it seized the opportunity to draw a sheepskin scroll filled with characters from its bosom.]

[The "Great Sage Osborne" dramatically tore open the collar of the magic robe, revealing the huge eye on the chest.]

[Under the gaze of the huge eye, the scroll disintegrated into ash, and countless characters burst forth from it...]

[You suddenly felt a chill run down your spine, a profound sense of danger overwhelming you.]

[Without a word, you retreated and decisively used your authority to evacuate the huge cage...]

[The moment your front foot left the cage, the characters exploded in blinding light!]

[Boom! A huge bang!]

[Explosive magic energy ravaged the entire cage, causing the cage made of starlight to dim rapidly, on the verge of collapse.]

[Luckily, you ran fast enough; had you still been in the cage, you would have disintegrated under such a powerful spell.]

[Finally, the magic energy subsided, and all light faded.]

[The "Great Sage Osborne," seeing you standing unharmed outside the cage, slumped powerlessly to the ground and closed its eyes in despair.]

[You re-entered the cage and raised the "Scarlet King’s Sword," mercilessly slashing at its neck!]

[Blood spurted out as it clasped its throat and fell, its eyes’ spark of life dimming and disappearing...]

[You have defeated the "Direct View Branch Association’s Seeker of Knowledge, Great Sage Osborne," and your experience value has greatly increased!]

[The power inside Shell began to surge, "The Up-Looking Polyvision School’s Star Spirit’s" Shell level increased; current Shell level: 121]

[You have obtained ’Small Chunk of Spirituality of the World-Roaming’*1]

[You have obtained ’Scroll of Knowledge Spells’ (Mythical Level Item)]

[You have obtained ’Sea of Knowledge Magic Array Controller’ (Special Item)]

[You have obtained ’Source Stone Fragments’ (Special Item)]

[You look at the fallen, dead body of the sage’s Shell...]

[The Shell of the "Seeker of Knowledge from Direct View Branch Association Sage": The vice-president of the Sub City Notos’s Direct View Branch Association, who himself had the power of a demigod-level sage, was one of the five pillars under the association’s president. Due to irreconcilable differences with the messenger of the True God, he was murdered by the messenger through deceitful means. Compatibility: 126% (+65%)]

[Do you wish to possess this Shell?]

"Finally killed that bastard!"

The Sage’s own strength was just at an average demigod level, but a plethora of magical items, bolstered by financial might, had made it quite difficult for Lin Xun to overcome him in a short time.

[You have possessed the ’Seeker of Knowledge from Direct View Branch Association Sage’s Shell!’]

Lin Xun, not having time to check his panel attributes, immediately left the Cage of the Stars and teleported back to the storeroom.

[...]

[Your eyes open, and you find yourself back in the familiar storeroom...]

[You immediately hang the painting that serves as the teleport for the ’Cage of the Stars’ back on the wall, adding some battle scars to the scene of the storeroom to create the illusion that the True God’s messenger has escaped...]

[Just as you finish, a thunderous bang shakes the entire building with violent tremors.]

[You hurry to the corridor window, only to see the magic energy of the ’Endless Knowledge Flood’ still wreaking havoc in the air, while that terrifying shadow has vanished without a trace.]

[Several sages seem to be drained of magic, landing on the ground and panting with their magic wands, except for the Branch Association president, "Direct View Great Sage," who, with one wave of his wand, is flying towards the administrative building where you are located.]

"How can these Mages cast another big spell so soon? Do their mana bars never run out?"

Lin Xun remembered that "Great Sage Osborne" too had just been through a major battle but was soon lively again, pretending to be drained of mana in an attempt to test him.

Without time to think too much, he immediately reacted.

[You wave your magic wand, shatter the window, and fly out towards the "Direct View Great Sage" who is coming in your direction.]

[It sees your battered appearance, its expression darkens, and it flies beside you asking in a grave voice, where is the True God’s messenger?]

[You sigh unwillingly, saying that alone you couldn’t stop the True God’s messenger; managing to keep him in the storeroom for so long already cost you all of your Ring of Stars Shine’s magic.]

[You’ve even used up that scroll in the end but still couldn’t stop the True God’s messenger.]

[The "Direct View Great Sage"’s face grows darker, but it doesn’t blame you.]

[You had notified them at the first opportunity, but because the Evil God of the Stars had descended again, they had to prioritize protecting the School and the Association; they couldn’t watch countless students die and hence didn’t arrive in time.]

[The "Direct View Great Sage" speaks with a cold voice, saying that the Great Prophet’s prediction was right: this True God’s messenger, not caring for the many students of the School, has repeatedly summoned the Evil God of the Stars. This alone indicates that the messenger has a severe tendency towards destroying the world.]

Lin Xun sneers, "Nice blame-shifting. If it weren’t for you cornering me, would I have summoned enemies from an opposing camp?"

After he summoned the Monsters of the Stars, he immediately removed the ’Ring of Stars Shine.’

Otherwise, after the death of this Monster of the Stars, who knows if the Evil God of the Stars would send other projections or monsters to kill him.

[You suddenly speak up, reminding them that after this incident, the True God’s messenger bears deep prejudice against the Direct View School, and by the looks of it, seems eager to seek out those lunatics of the Polyvision School...]

[Upon hearing this, the face of the "Direct View Great Sage" becomes even more unpleasant. It takes a deep breath and then slowly says that they must stop the True God’s messenger from heading to the Multivision Association, for if those madmen get their hands on the messenger, this world is truly doomed!]
