Chapter 803: Marshall
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
"Let's see what you can do without these puppets."
The Lord God of Light saw through the black cat Didimoss' talent. Such a talent was truly formidable and fearsome. If the black cat Didimoss could grow for a longer period, he might probably grow to unfathomable levels. The fact that the Spell Caster civilization possessed an existence with such a startling potential such as the black cat Didimoss truly made the Lord God of Light reconsider his recklessness.
This time, no matter what, he must destroy the Spell Caster civilization for good. After all, from the moment the Spell Casters began to rise until its brink of extermination today, coupled with the emergence of an astonishing existence such as the black cat Didimoss, the Spell Caster civilization seemed to be favored by fate. It was filled with miracles and hopes.
Regardless, the Lord God of Light wanted to destroy the hope of the Spell Caster civilization for good!
"Holy Light Purification!"
The Lord God of Light wore a stern expression which made him look extremely holy. However, the holy light on his body gradually transformed into a sun that illuminated everything. The holy light radiated in all directions and ricocheted toward the black cat Didimoss.
Every single ray in this holy light contained a small portion of the power of the natural order. Although they were scattered and thus slightly weakened, completely ineffective against ultimate existences such as Augustus and Ceci, it was quite a substantial force for the black cat Didimoss.
After all, the black cat Didimoss was not an ultimate existence, and still a certain gap away from the legendary Greatest Lord. Only after swallowing a sufficient amount of energy, Didimoss could detonate the ability of a "Greatest Lord", and fight against an ultimate existence.
Now that the puppets had retreated to safety, there was nothing left in the Void Zone for the black cat Didimoss to swallow.
"Chi chi chi."
When the holy light containing the power of the natural order enveloped the black cat Didimoss, it was like he was on fire. The black cat's huge body turned fiery red.
Right now, the black cat Didimoss could only use his own ability to withstand the Lord God of Light. Naturally, he was incapable!
"Merlin, I can't hold on anymore. It's too painful and too scary. I can't hold on much longer..."
The black cat Didimoss' voice was shaking. His body seemed to be engulfed in a layer of golden flames that were burning viciously. Currently, the black cat Didimoss was using his own strength to transmute the holy light.
The black cat Didimoss' natural talent had become much more powerful than before and could be considered a massive success. The former Didimoss could only sleep, swallow, and sleep again, in a repetitive cycle. Everything he consumed was transmuted into his own strength.
On the other hand, the new Didimoss was able to transmute the things he swallowed into energy to resist external attacks. Even his own strength could be transmuted to resist the Lord God of Light's holy light attack.
However, since he could not transmute more energy from swallowing, the black cat Didimoss would not be able to hold on much longer.
Merlin's Maxim avatar glanced at the black cat Didimoss and shifted his gaze onto the final two remaining Arcane Cities. At the moment, the Arcane Cities had been completely evacuated due to the war. Even the twenty-six Lords had come out, and stood behind Didimoss.
"Didimoss, I'll be there soon! By the way, can you swallow a dimension?"
Merlin asked in a serious tone. The current situation of the Spell Caster civilization was extremely precarious. They were merely relying on the black cat Didimoss' resistance for now. Moreover, no one knew when the void-level warship of the Atlan civilization would be able to launch an attack that could kill an ultimate existence once again. Therefore, the black cat Didimoss must hold on. Regardless of what price they had to pay, he must hold on.
"A dimension? Probably I can swallow it. I sense that my natural talent has become more powerful, I think there's nothing I can't swallow. It's just that the powers of this Lord God of Light contain strange energy. Even if I swallow it, I feel uncomfortable and cannot transmute it."
The black cat Didimoss replied after some thoughts.
A strange glint flashed across Merlin's eyes. The black cat Didimoss' ability to swallow was somewhat similar to the Slothful Beast. Nevertheless, the Slothful beast was a mighty creature born in the Void Zone, and did not possess the talent to transmute energy like Didimoss.
As for the black cat Didimoss' inability to swallow and transmute the Lord God of Light's holy light, it was nothing surprising. This was because the holy light contained the power of the natural order. The power of natural order was the fundamental component of the Void Zone that bounded even the ultimate existences. If the black cat Didimoss could swallow and transmute the power of the natural order, then it would be extraordinary.
"It's great if you can swallow a dimension. We can't afford to think too much about this, and I believe the two Arcane Wizards will agree with our actions! Didimoss, try swallowing those two Arcane Cities. As long as you can swallow the two Arcane Cities, I believe that with your natural talent, you'll be able to hold on a little longer against the Lord God of Light."
Merlin's gaze shifted toward the two Arcane Cities. He, of course, knew the significance of the Arcane Cities in the hearts of the Spell Casters. The Arcane Cities were the symbol of the Spell Caster civilization and occupied an utmost position in everyone's hearts!
However, the Spell Caster civilization was now caught in a disastrous situation. If using the two Arcane Cities could help the Spell Caster civilization survive this crisis, Merlin was sure that Arcane Wizards Augustus and Ceci would agree with him.
"Meow... Why didn't I think about this? Very well, let me see if I can swallow them."
The black cat Didimoss was initially filled with despair but now, his body expanded once again. His size exceeded that of a huge dimension. Then, he stretched his mouth open and inhaled with gusto.
"Rumble."
Ceci Arcane City began to quake gently under this forceful suction. Subsequently, its speed increased. Lo and behold, the enormous dimension which used to be a symbol of hope for the Spell Caster civilization was swallowed by the black cat Didimoss.
"Haha, I feel so powerful!"
The black cat Didimoss was now filled with confidence. The energy transmuted from Ceci Arcane City truly surpassed his imaginations. True enough, an Arcane City was different from the average dimensions.
After all, the three great Arcane Cities were molded by the three great Arcane Wizards with tremendous effort. Hence, how could its power be comparable to the rest?
Therefore, once it was swallowed by the black cat Didimoss, the energy that was transmuted seemed to flow indefinitely. Soon, wisps of dark rays shrouded around the black cat Didimoss and blocked the Lord God of Light's holy light.
Nevertheless, the dark rays diminished at a rapid pace. Additionally, this was not a permanent solution but merely a stop-gap measure to delay the black cat Didimoss' eventual defeat.
A look of frustration flashed across the Lord God of Light's eyes. He sneered."How generous, you've even sacrificed the Arcane Cities. However, it's useless. Sooner or later, this black cat which had reversed the natural order will end up in my hands."
The Lord God of Light was not too bothered. In his opinion, time was on his side. Once the Atlan civilization's void-level warship recharged its buffers, no one in the Spell Caster civilization would be able to resist the attack.
"The Arcane Cities... Didimoss, go ahead, swallow my Arcane City."
Augustus still had some strength to spare, so with a wave of his hand, he guided the Arcane City directly toward the black cat Didimoss. At such a critical juncture, the top contender of the Spell Caster civilization knew that the choice was clear-cut.
Despite having some strength to spare, he was still tightly entangled by the two Rock Tribe Progenitors and could not escape.
"Ceci, if the black cat Didimoss can't resist anymore, you should escape. I'll use all my strength to help you escape! Haha, even if I die, I will not allow the Rock Tribe and the Atlan civilization to escape unscathed!"
Augustus knew that when the time came, even if he was lucky to survive this crisis, and hide in the shadows to destroy the Rock Tribe as well as Atlan civilization dimensions, what use would it be? The Spell Caster civilization would be no longer exist. With only the ultimate existences left, it would still be a failure.
Moreover, the Atlan civilization now had the void-level warship. The deterrent factor held by the ultimate existences was gone. In fact, Augustus was prepared to die.
Death... In the eyes of an ultimate existence, this was such a foreign concept, and perhaps even a meaningless word to them. Upon becoming an ultimate existence, they never envisioned that one day, death would be upon them.
However, at this moment, even the Ultimate Arcane Wizards had to face the imminent threat of death!
...
In the icy-cold Void Zone, a strange-looking, spirit-like huge warship was floating quietly.
In it, there were a few men dressed in gray armor. In particular, a middle-aged man at the helm was looking especially solemn.
"Marshall, the war has fallen into a stalemate. Seemingly from out of nowhere, a huge black cat appeared and has temporarily resisted the Lord God of Light!"
A petite woman with unclear features said in a cold tone.
As to who this Marshall was, no one from the Rock Tribe or Light God Organization knew. All they knew was that the Marshall was the highest-ranking commander among the warships that came out of the Atlan dimension.
On the screen of the warship, the entire battle that had transpired in the Void Zone battlefield was displayed clearly. The Marshall sneered."Idiot. Does he dare to call himself a god? He's a first-class idiot. Even after so many attempts, he still cannot exterminate the Spell Caster civilization for good. I don't know how much longer we have to wait, which might bring more changes! Go and check when can the void-level warship's main cannon fire again?"
The woman remained as emotionless as a machine. She replied indifferently, "Marshall, I've checked with the research institute. Since we've only recently achieved a breakthrough in the main cannon's technology, we still can't find any way to reduce its energy consumption. To fully recharge it again, we'll have to drain another ten dimensions dry."
"Ten dimensions? These dimensions are the future foundation of the Atlan civilization... Such a pity. Nevertheless, whether it's the Rock Tribe or the Light God Organization, all their dimensions would sooner or later be ours. How much more resources would these ten dimensions provide us in the future? Now, we can't care about all this. Tell the Rock Creatures that if they want to wipe out the Spell Caster civilization as soon as possible, they'll have to contribute another ten dimensions."
The Marshall had issued an order. The truth was, they did not even need to ask. Under such circumstances, the Rock Tribe could not possibly refuse.
"Beep. Marshall, the Rock Tribe has agreed. The void-level warship main cannon is going toward these dimensions to recharge. Soon, recharging will be complete!"
The Marshall nodded. Then, his burly body stood up slowly. Behind the Marshall, there were several men dressed in the same armor that kept him protected.
"Look, the Void Zone outside is so similar to the starry sky in our homeland... Unfortunately, the Void Zone doesn't have any stars but instead, it contains infinite possibilities. Our Atlan civilization will surely shine brighter than the Vestigial Tribe in the past! We'll achieve heights that have never been achieved by the Vestigial Tribe!"
There was a glimmer of insanity in the Marshall's eyes. Perhaps, in some ways, all the Atlans had fallen into a state of insanity.
