Chapter 339: The Four Are Alarmed, Striking in Unison to Suppress Burning Silence

Aiden watched the swarm of rats surge into the Spiritual Tide and tear into Wang Ya’s body. His robes were shredded, his flesh a mangled mess that revealed bone and viscera… Seeing this, Aiden finally felt at ease.

Killing Duoguyin proved that his opponent already possessed the Power of an Extreme Wizard Apprentice.

Being unable to use Extraordinary Spiritual Power and Particle Energy was absolutely fatal for a Wizard. Aiden didn’t believe Wang Ya Harak had any way to turn the tables.

Besides, he still had Mo Kui as his trump card.

‘It took four Extreme Wizard Apprentices making a move on you at the same time, Wang Ya Harak. You can be proud of that.’

‘Unfortunately, you have to die.’

Aiden narrowed his eyes, watching as the relentless waves and gnawing rats completely pulverized Wang Ya’s body.

Perhaps the greatest accomplishment of this Wizard Task wasn’t fulfilling the arrangements of that esteemed personage, but killing Wang Ya Harak.

If they reported this back, the reward would be no less than that for an A-Level mission.

‘To crush a genius with one’s own hands… the feeling is truly intoxicating.’

The corner of Aiden’s mouth curved into a smirk.

The three of them kept their Biological Force Fields and Extraordinary Spiritual Power at the ready, prepared to deal with any unexpected developments.

Fortunately, everything was proceeding according to his predictions.

He knew his opponent also cultivated the Dream Wizard Path, but without the ability to channel Extraordinary Spiritual Power, not even a Dream Wizard could connect to the Dream Gap to use Dream Witchcraft.

Moreover, the Spiritual Tide could also interfere with the Dream Gap itself.

It was an absolutely perfect plan.

Then, a sharp CLANG rang out, causing all three of them to freeze for a moment.

Even Mo Kui, three thousand meters away, who was in the process of stabilizing the Particle Energy engine, reacted—his crimson mechanical Artificial Eye flared to life again.

The sound had come from the gnawing rats. It was incredibly sharp, like the clang of metal on metal.

Tearing at flesh and blood could never produce such a sound.

Could it be that this Wang Ya Harak had also undergone body modifications from a Mechanical Wizard?

Aiden narrowed his eyes, his pupils contracting. He thought he saw a gleam of light from within Wang Ya Harak’s mangled remains.

What was that…?

As the fifth wave surged past, the mangled corpse finally disintegrated completely. The bones, gnawed to smithereens, revealed a bronze-colored mirror hidden within.

The surface of the mirror was the color of brass, shimmering with a faint light and reflecting their own stiff, ugly expressions back at them.

An unprecedented sense of dread inexplicably bloomed in their hearts. What was happening? Where was Wang Ya Harak? It should have been impossible for him to escape.

The Spiritual Tide could even block the transmission of Dream Power.

“Is it because of the mirror?” Cautious as ever, Aiden did not rush to end the Spiritual Tide. After a moment of thought, he spoke. “Wang Ya Harak must still be in there. The Brass Mirror seems to be a special kind of Witchcraft Artifact, perhaps one that can conceal a person.”

Aiden felt his deduction was correct, and a mocking smile touched his lips. “Hiding inside a concealment-type Witchcraft Artifact, you avoid being battered by the Spiritual Tide. And by relying on the sheer hardness of the Brass Mirror, even the rats can’t chew through it.”

“I have to admit, Wang Ya Harak, you’re truly outstanding. So much potential, a true genius. Your combat experience, your countermeasures… even when plotted against and attacked by all of us at once, you still managed to find a way to create an opportunity for survival.”

“But none of that matters in the face of absolute Power. Do you think you can wait for Wizard reinforcements? Do you think there are any Wizards from the Dark Land still alive? It’s all useless. You are fated to die here today.”

“If you had the Power of an Extreme Wizard Apprentice, I would have turned and left without a second thought.”

Aiden sent a message to Mo Kui using his Extraordinary Spiritual Power. ‘Use the Particle Shock Wave Cannon at maximum power. Shatter this mirror Witchcraft Artifact.’

It was a form of Mechanical Energy Witchcraft powerful enough to inflict core damage even on a Level 1 Sublimation Witchcraft Artifact.

Its power rating reached 55 degrees, making it no different from a spell cast by an Official Wizard.
