Chapter 463: Forced to Leave (2)

Translator: _Leo_ Editor: Kurisu

On Eye Devil's left, a man in bone armor was floating with green flames around his body; there was a shell-shaped object on his back.

The man's body was slightly larger than a dragon knight and similar to the size of Angele's true form, but he was still much smaller than the Eye Devil.

The man in white armor noticed Angele, he drew a green line in the air and flew to Angele.

"Phoenix! Is there a way to stop Eye Devil from being sealed by Sea God?!" Angele noticed that it was Bone after the man approached.

"Sea God… Bone, I'm still recovering and there's nothing I can do." A bitter smile appeared on Angele's face.

"Well, we're in trouble then." Bone moved to Angele and they watched Eye Devil being dragged to the black smoke.

"Sea God is trying to seal the black smoke and the dimension vortex completely; however, it's impossible. The problem is, if the vortex is sealed, only creatures weaker than us will be able to access the portal, and it'll take us more than one hundred thousand years to unseal the portal. Also, Eye Devil will face serious consequences…"

"What do you mean? Is there anything you can do?" Angele questioned with his brow furrowed.

"Well, if I go and try to save her, she will escape and I'll become the one that gets sealed… Half of my power will be gone and I'll be sealed for more than one hundred thousand years." A bitter smile appeared on Bone's face.

"Eye Devil is selfish, it's highly possible that she doesn't care about us at all!"

"So, you're saying that guy has similar concerns?" Angele pointed at a man with a white cape that was floating in the air.

"Yeah, you're right. Although we're all here, no one is trying to help her." Bone shrugged.

Angele realized that the woman in black and bat were no longer moving. Lowering his head, he saw that white smoke was rising from the bat and the woman's bodies. Their skin was boiling and it felt like bones could pierce through their bodies at any time.

"Ah, my bad, I should've kept some distance." Bone noticed the situation. "They're too weak and my voice is making them… uncomfortable…"

Angele's skin numbed but the situation was much better for him. He moved his body slightly after hearing Bone's word.

The size of his body increased and a long black horn appeared on top of his head. It looked like a long black ponytail. His brow was replaced by a pair of golden eyes.

Angele was more than seven meters tall and his muscular body was terrifying.

More ten white ghost masks slowly solidified and floated around Angele's body. The masks were chuckling and screaming.

Strong black light landed on the bat and the woman in black, the light protected them from being damaged by Bone's aura.

Angele noticed that the normal true form of Bone had the similar power level as his true form, which was about the same as a rank 6 wizard.

He checked the fan of bones on Bone's back and noticed that there was a complicated rune circle on the fan. It had to be the bloodline rune circle Bone had.

Bone already reached the top-level of the first true form since he already recreated the rune circle. Angele had not recreated his rune circle, which meant that his normal true form could still be improved.

"Well, your true form is… artistic…" Bone glanced at Angele. "It seems like you still need some time. You haven't recreated your rune circle and sign yet."

"Well, let's focus on Eye Devil," Angele interrupted.

They turned to Eye Devil and watched her struggle.

"I would've offered help if Eye Devil didn't lie to me… Actually, we should both help her under these circumstances. No one expected that Sea God has the ability to seal her. We'll be weaker than the lords of the northland after all." Bone shook his head. "There's nothing I can do now."

Angele nodded.

"No!" Eye Devil's dark red body started exploding and countless tiny explosions appeared on the surface of her skin. Half of her body was dragged into the black smoke and there was nothing she could do.

"Let's leave before it's too late!" Bone turned into a green star and disappeared.

Angele kicked the black bat to the ground and created a solid object in the air using the energy particles. He stepped on the object and jumped into the air.

The air around Angele's body turned into red flames, following after Bone.

They turned into a green star and a red star, heading to the black smoke.

The man with a white cape also moved to the black smoke at full speed with a golden spear in hand.

Angele's body was surrounded by the flame and he was absorbing the negative emotions that came from the battlefield.

The negative emotions were so intense that he was having trouble breathing. The negative emotions were absorbed by his body, turning into black liquid, and the ghost masks in the air were changing their expressions constantly.

Angele could feel that his mutated scorpion woman's bloodline was being constantly strengthened.

*CHI*

Suddenly, Angele was hit by the pain from the tailbone, and he could feel that something pierced through his skin.

Turning his head around, Angele noticed a tail appeared on his body. The tail was about five meters long and covered with spikes.

He tried to control the tail and it quickly turned into the shape of an "S". The black spikes on the tail all stood up, they were hard and reflective.

'Great, I didn't expect the mutated scorpion woman's bloodline to fit the Erin's Funeral Oration so well. The only thing I need to do is modify the Erin's Funeral Oration and I'll be able to acquire a new purified bloodline.' Angele was happy that his power level was increasing.

'Unknown energy absorbed. Mentality increasing…' Zero's voice slowly echoed in his ears.

'Recording the changes: 200… 213… 238… 278… 311… 355… 396… 421… 478…' His mentality stopped increasing after reaching 478.

Angele's mentality increased to 478 from 200.

Angele had a general idea about the situation. 'So, based on the biochip's calculation, each increased unit is the total of a mortal's fear. My mentality is increased by 278 units, which means I absorbed fear from 278 mortals. Also, the fear I absorbed was already purified. I probably absorbed more fear than I thought.'

He could control his mentality perfectly after the changes and finally understood why Eye Devil feared the bloodline signet of the scorpion woman.

The scorpion woman's bloodline increased his mentality like crazy; although the mentality might come with impurities, it was still a perfect way to strengthen his power. Also, the power of the negative emotions could be used during battles—it could damage the target's mentality and soul.

'Such a powerful bloodline… The original scorpion woman can't absorb the pure emotion power like me but her mentality power is much stronger than other creatures even with the impurities,' Angele thought as he flew. 'The scorpion woman feeds on war, that's why she is born in the Nightmare Realm…'

Eye Devil was finally dragged into the black smoke by the four blue chains and disappeared into it quickly. The four blue chains also disappeared into the smoke.

Angele, Bone, and the man with a white cape charged into the smoke and disappeared as well when the blue chains disappeared.

*BOOM*

After the explosion, the black smoke cylinder turned into a black smoke ring and slowly faded away, revealing a dark-red vortex in the sky.

The dragon knights, giants, and bats all flew to the dark red vortex, disappearing into the portal.

The red sky slowly turned gold and the light penetrated the clouds, landing on the ground. It looked like the Soul River Realm successfully survived the invasion again.

　　**************************************

Angele rushed into the smoke, he felt like he just entered a pool of red liquid. There was a red vortex behind him and a large black vortex in the front.

He protected the woman in black using some black light and started swimming to the black vortex.

Bone and the man with a white cape were also swimming.

"Part of the dimension vortex is destroyed and we have to swim back in the dimension pool…" Bone looked a bit anxious.

"Dimension pool? What's that?" Angele was surprised, it was the first time that he heard of it.

"I don't know. Sometimes, there'll be a pool in the dimension vortex and time will be stopped there. Also, all your power is restricted—no matter if you're a living being or a soul, you can only move at a certain speed," the man with a cape explained. "No one knows about the liquid in the pool. You can't carry the liquid with you and you can't drink it.

"There are so many strange things in the realms. I've seen realms that are more terrifying than the Nightmare Realm," the man spoke with a low voice.

"Well, tell me more about the dimension pool. I never heard that the time is stopped here." Bone was curious.

A smile appeared on the man's face. "I know a lot of secrets here and I've explored many realms. I can give you more information, but you need to do me a favor."

"What do you want?" Bone scrunched his brows.

"Help Eye Devil. We still need her."

"Well, sure, the lords of the northland are invading other realms like crazy. We haven't even finished the first one and we're already interrupted. The northland will attack us sooner or later if we can't gather our power!" Bone nodded.

"I agree." Angele nodded. "But I'm still too weak right now and I'm not sure if I can actually help you."

"No worries. I'm sure you'll recover faster when the situation allows." It seemed like the man noticed something and smiled.
