Chapter 416: 434 Driven Out of Stania_1
With a slight panic, the Master of Magic’s feet flashed with bright blue light.
He moved quickly, stepping on the air in succession, leaving Otto behind before long.
At this moment, the Master of Magic appeared quite miserable. His arms had been nearly bitten off by Otto.
Now, at the base of his arms, there were two irregular, gruesome wounds. Strangely, no blood flowed out, but a blue, stardust-like substance was slowly spreading from them.
Considering this, the Master of Magic could hardly be called human anymore.
While thinking about this, Otto quickly swallowed the crystallized arms that he had torn off.
These two arms alone contained an impressive amount of energy and power.
They nearly burst Otto as they were consumed, and further convinced him that the Master of Magic possessed something that should not have belonged to him or this world.
However, these things would soon belong to Otto!
Upon considering this, Otto’s mood inevitably brightened.
Looking at it this way, the Western Empire seemed like a gift-giver serving only Otto since he had already acquired many valuable things from them.
While Otto was daydreaming, the blue light at the Master of Magic’s wounds intensified. In dazzling light, a new pair of arms quickly grew back.
It seemed that the Master of Magic had a powerful self-healing ability, similar to Otto’s.
At this moment, the Master of Magic lowered his head to examine his newly grown palms. He flexed his fingers, seemingly adjusting to his new limbs.
However, they appeared slightly different from the ones before.
Narrowing his eyes, Otto quickly realized that the newly grown limbs were a bit too ordinary.
After all, the Master of Magic’s previous arms had been completely crystallized, resembling blue crystals themselves.
But now, they had robust muscles and tender skin, much like those of a newborn baby.
It wouldn’t pose a problem for normal people, and would even be praised for exceptional preservation.
But for the Master of Magic, it was a significant problem.
Due to the oversights before, the Master of Magic had lost his heavily crystallized arms, and his weakened body saw a steep decline in strength.
Initially, he was already struggling against Otto, but the Master of Magic fully understood the changes to his power.
At this stage, he could not possibly defeat the Evil Dragon. If they continued in a stalemate, he would face true danger.
“Damn it, if only I had more time to dig deeper and gather more magical power…”
Clutching the still pulsing blue crystal on his chest, the Master of Magic could no longer maintain a calm expression.
Now, all he could think about was how to escape from the Evil Dragon, send Stania back to the Western Empire, find the Little Emperor, and surround himself with 100,000 elite knights.
Meanwhile, he would hide and study the unexpected treasure that he had acquired!
Once he fully merged with the crystal in his chest, obtaining everything within, he would truly become an immortal deity.
Of course, by then, the damn Black Dragon would no longer be a threat to him.
“Damn Black Dragon, I will forge armor from your scales, weapons from your teeth and bones, and a top-grade toilet from your skull!”
Thinking of this, the Master of Magic’s face showed a ferocious, terrifying sneer that was far from his previous composure.
However, without realizing it, he had unwittingly spoken his thoughts aloud…
“Regrettably, you can’t achieve that with your current abilities!”
After letting out a loud burp, Otto swiftly closed in on the Master of Magic.
Faced with the quickly approaching Otto, the Master of Magic considered not how to fight or defeat him, but how to make his escape.
Soon enough, he made a decision.
Before Otto reached him, the Master of Magic’s body shattered into countless particles of stardust, scattering everywhere.
Although Otto tried to intercept as much as he could, the majority of the particles still fell to the ground and were absorbed.
Upon seeing this, Otto glanced around in puzzlement. Suddenly, the Master of Magic’s presence completely vanished from his senses.
It seemed that the Master of Magic had merged with the entire Stania Floating City!
Thus, he appeared to disappear instantly from Otto’s senses, yet could also be considered everywhere!
“Boom!”
Just as Otto was pondering his next move, the entire Stania Floating City began to tremble violently.
At the same time, the stone beneath Otto’s feet started to crack at a rapid pace, even to the point where the foundation began to crumble and create a large gap.
This gap was large enough for Otto to easily pass through.
As Otto attempted to fly away, he discovered an odd barrier throughout Stania.
While the barrier posed no specific threat to the creatures within Stania, Otto could not take off no matter how hard he tried.
Surveying his surroundings, Otto realized that it wasn’t just him. The surrounding Undead Dragons and other flying Undead creatures, and even the surviving spellcasters within Stania, were falling from the sky.
Seeing this, Otto understood.
It seemed that the Master of Magic had activated a barrier after incorporating himself into Stania, preventing any flying within its scope.
In addition, the Master of Magic had complete control over Stania since he had merged with it. This allowed him to manipulate it as he saw fit.
For instance, the Master of Magic had deliberately opened up a pit beneath Otto, attempting to force him to fall out of the Floating City of Stania.
Unable to fly or find a stable foothold while the ground collapsed around him, Otto reluctantly began to fall along with the vast amounts of debris.
Although he sustained no injuries, Otto found himself outside the Stania Floating City in the blink of an eye due to the Master of Magic’s unique method.
