Chapter 2051: 597 Void Ring and Taboo Extraction_2
Near the black hole.
A thin grey-white line suddenly appeared.
This was the passage she had left solely for Pale King Dickens.
âAre you so afraid of me escaping?â
Matthew tried to slip away through that passage.
But found himself failing.
This indicated that Dania hadnât relaxed her suppression on this space, and had merely quietly opened a backdoor for her ally.
This road was not one that anyone could take.
Matthew was certainly unable to squeeze in.
On the contrary.
With his union with the Demon Dragon, Dickens could charge straight through.
Within seconds.
Matthew sensed the ferocious power of Dickens rushing fiercely through the passage Dania had provided.
The next thing that appeared before his eyes was that familiar tongueâ
The Mummyâs Tongue!
Just now Matthew had been caught off guard by this move, so it naturally drew much of his attention this time.
He immediately increased the intensity and focus of his tomorrowâs withered flower.
Yet that moist tongue didnât lash directly at Matthew this time.
Instead, it actively avoided the small bubbles.
Splitting into hundreds of sharp forked tongues in a surrounding but non-attacking formation.
These tongues, like hydrangea, adorned the depths of the black hole.
And deeper inside was Matthewâs bubble.
After a while.
He could feel waves of damp, chilling force clinging to the bubble.
That was the flip side of countless splits of the Mummyâs Tongueâ
On that side, Matthew saw rolls of bandages.
On each set of bandages were engraved inscriptions filled with sinister aura.
This wasnât a spell.
Nor was it a ceremonial field.
It was a purely malevolent curse.
Such a curse couldnât even yield any effects.
It was merely a medium for what Dickens was about to do!
âA Mystic Lock has never been invincibleâŠeven with a name change, itâs still the same. Kid, let me show you how a legendary-mage breaks through the ban of a full-frontal magic silence!â
As soon as he finished speaking.
A colder power reached into Matthewâs heart.
His predicament hadnât actually changed.
Tomorrowâs withered flower and the Void Ring still kept the enemy at bay.
But soon Matthew realized something was wrongâ
âWhy are my Focus and mana depleting so rapidly? This rate of consumptionâŠis not normal, definitely not normal!â
Matthewâs heart slightly wavered.
He closed his eyes.
And sensed the peculiar suppression coming from Dickens.
On the data panel.
âŠ
âWarning: You are under the suppression of the bloodline ability âTaboo Extractionâ from the Demon Dragon (legendary-mage Dickens)!â
Taboo Extraction: Dickens has selected your tomorrowâs withered flower as the target for Taboo Extraction.
The chosen target will be continuously drained of mana and Focus.
Specifically.
Dickens himself will also bear the same cost.
The faster his mana and Focus deplete.
The faster your mana and Focus will be extracted.
Therefore, this is a direct confrontation on the level of mana and FocusâŠ
âŠ
âTaboo Extraction?â
âSuch a bizarre ability? And itâs a bloodline ability, indicating it comes from the Ritz family. Demmo never used this ability; is it because he couldnât, or didnât have the opportunity to, or perhaps his bloodline isnât pure enough?â
Matthewâs initial reaction was to breathe a sigh of relief.
If it was simply a contest of Focus and mana, ordinary legendary spellcasters might fear the likes of Dickens, a seasoned veteran.
But Matthew, with his ample accumulation, wasnât frightened at all!
Letâs see whoâs spent first!
But after just three minutes.
Matthew finally noticed the issueâ
His and Dickensâ mana and Focus levels were depleting identically.
Considering Matthewâs own state, against Dickensâ years of confinement in the Wandering Tower, logically the latter shouldnât last.
But as time passed.
Matthew discovered that, setting aside Focus, Dickensâ mana inside wasnât decreasing but instead increasing!
This meant that compared to the mana being consumed.
More ether actively surged into Dickens!
Such a situation was undoubtedly closely tied to the environment of the Arcane Wilderness.
But more importantly:
âHeâs completely abandoned the human form, whether by consuming the Ember Blood Crystal or merging with the Demon Dragon.â
âThough he possesses the might of a legendary necromancer and still maintains a human-like soul.â
âBut fundamentally, the body he manipulates is already a Demon!â
âHeâs completely shattered the shackles of being human or any intelligent life form. He doesnât concern himself with acquiring magic addiction, and between him and the ether, thereâs no longer any barrierâŠâ
Understanding this layer.
Matthewâs heart sank slightly.
The two bigwigs in Baiyan City were indeed tough, not only because of their credentials but more due to their willingness to risk anything.
âItâs not like it can get any worse!â
Driven by a similar mindset and a thirst for revenge.
Both Dania and Dickens would perform outrageous maneuvers no normal legendary spellcaster would dare undertake.
This only added to Matthewâs challenges!
âAt this rate, you might lose control even before my mana is drained!â
Matthew earnestly reminded.
Pale King Dickens grinned:
âYouâre afraid.â
Matthew was speechless:
âCanât I just dispel the spell?â
Dickensâ eyes lit up:
âThen go ahead and dispel it!â
âLet me see what other cards you hold besides this Mystic Lock!â
Matthew said seriously:
âThen Iâll really dispel it, alright?â
Dickens chuckled coldly.
But he obviously didnât believe it.
So instead of slowing down his pace, he intensified his consumption of mana and focus.
Seeing this, Matthew lifted his hand.
From the depths of the black hole,
a burst of Dragon Fire suddenly emerged.
That was the Dragon Fire Talisman on Matthew!
This trinket not only has the effect of breaking Magic Counter, but it can also ignite and suppress the targetâs mana!
The Dragon Fire hit the Demon Dragon.
But Dickens showed an indifferent attitude:
âIs this the Mystic Lock you said youâd dispel?â
âHow sincere of you!â
Matthew smiled slightly.
Revealing the Dragon Fire Talisman and attacking with Dragon Fire was just an appetizer in his series of actions.
This was to some extent to numb Dickensâ judgmentâ
Matthew was thinking about using Mana Ignite to win the duel.
In that case, he most likely wouldnât dare to actively dispel tomorrowâs withered flower.
Matthew was creating a potential mindset like this!
In fact,
he could have dispelled the spell long ago.
The reason for the delay was simple.
He needed to first think clearly about his battle plan after dispelling the spell.
Same principle as alwaysâ
First, do not lose.
Then seek victory.
As long as tomorrowâs withered flower and the Void Ring were maintained, Matthew could remain invincible.
And once he actively chose to leave this relatively balanced situation,
it meant he had to win!
And it couldnât be a small victory.
It had to be a significant victory!
âNowâs the time!â
An unwavering glimmer passed through Matthewâs eyes.
Seizing the moment when Dickens was fiercely consuming his own mana,
Matthew abruptly dispelled âtomorrowâs withered flowerâ!
And at that moment when the bubble disappeared,
numerous greedy desires instantaneously focused on Matthew!
Daniaâs delighted voice rang out:
âOh, I misunderstood you, Dickens!â
âYou truly have some capability, actually forcing him to dispel the turtle shell!â
âIn that case, Iâll gladly accept this fresh body, donât get angry, Dickens, Iâll leave you some strands of hair⊠HeheheâŠâ
Before the words fell,
the black hole exploded abruptly.
The Calamity Grassman, previously a picture of fractured weakness, suddenly rose from the âgroundâ.
The Destruction Black Hole in her chest directly targeted Matthew.
Intending to forcefully devour him.
Yet at that moment,
a painting scroll suddenly appeared at Matthewâs side.
The black hole couldnât swallow Matthew.
Because Matthew astonishingly dived into that painting scroll!
Under the power of the black hole,
the painting scroll was torn into countless shreds.
As Dania was about to swallow all the scrolls into herself,
a sudden gust of wind whipped the shreds of the scrolls into the air!
âDonât dream of taking it all for yourself!â
The Demon Dragon viciously whipped up a towering wall of wind.
Dickens gathered all the shreds together.
He noticed Matthewâs shadow on almost every shred of the scroll.
But the next second,
he merely blinked,
and all the images of Matthew on the shreds disappeared rapidly.
âThis isâŠâ
âIsabelleâs Dimension Shift?â
âHe intentionally shifted himself into a lower dimension, hiding in the scroll?â
Dania seemed to recall something.
Then,
both coincidentally looked up.
To see a gigantic silhouette suddenly appear in the skyâ
That was MatthewâŠ
His upper body!
âWhat was dimensionally lowered into the scrollâŠ
was actually you.â
Matthew, occupying half the sky, said so.
