Keli joined Saul’s small squad rebelling against the Tribunal, both worried sick and trembling with excitement.

If she hadn’t been disciplined by Grand Duke Kira these past two years, she would probably already be cursing out loud like Saul.

The few people carefully arranged the upcoming plan within the anti-surveillance array, but whether Byron or Keli, they only knew what they needed to do.

Saul didn’t tell them about other arrangements.

Although knowing Saul had many secret arrangements, Byron and Keli didn’t ask much.

Keli was very curious, but after Saul clearly stated they weren’t suitable to know currently and that he would definitely tell them everything afterward, she stopped asking.

She just rolled her eyes a few more times somewhat unhappily.

On the fourth day after Keli’s arrival, Frim communicated with Saul about experimental progress as usual.

But after Frim’s voice disappeared, Byron immediately patted Saul’s left shoulder.

Byron, possessing special elven mental power, was very sensitive to mental power fluctuations.

Although today’s Frim figure appearing before his eyes didn’t differ much, he still keenly noticed the other’s figure was slightly blurred.

So Byron immediately used a bit of elven ability to observe Frim’s image again.

Through elven vision, he was more certain that Frim’s projection had indeed become somewhat blurred. This had never happened in previous days.

So Byron immediately followed his prior agreement with Saul and warned him.

Saul only felt his shoulder sink as his heart began racing wildly.

“He’s gone. The divided soul has left. The Frim remaining at the Tribunal isn’t complete, his strength has decreased by at least one-third, perhaps half.”

Dividing attention between two tasks didn’t reduce strength proportionally.

Saul took a deep breath to calm himself, then said to Keli and Byron, “It’s time.”

The three exchanged glances, then took their respective items.

Saul stood by the window.

When originally choosing this as a laboratory, what he valued was this huge window. Content originally comes from noⅴelfire.net

Saul pressed his hand against the glass, immediately feeling the sealing power on it.

The seemingly fragile glass actually had a layer of sealing outside.

Saul’s palm applied gentle force, and magical power immediately oscillated violently. Fresh chapters posted on NoveI-Fire.ɴet

The glass began vibrating slightly, then with a “bang,” the entire window was instantly covered with fine, dense cracks.

The shattered glass immediately emitted dazzling light like blazing noon sun, but it didn’t last a breath before scattering outward like snowflakes under Saul’s forceful slap.

This castle, this room, naturally couldn’t confine Saul.

Otherwise, the tall and short third-rank wizards wouldn’t have been guarding outside all along.

The massive light emitted when the glass shattered immediately attracted the attention of the two third-rank wizards below.

Obviously the castle’s sealing served more as a warning function.

The two wizards saw the glass fragments shaken from the room and became furious.

One window naturally wasn’t much, but what angered them was that Saul breaking the glass meant not following rules.

Especially at this sensitive moment, the giant-like tall wizard bared his teeth and was about to fly over, but was stopped by the short wizard.

“Let me ask clearly first.” The short wizard was more rational. Although angry, he still decided to check the situation first.

What if it was an experimental explosion that caused the glass to shatter?

After the glass broke, no one rushed out from inside, which made the short wizard slightly relieved.

Perhaps they were indeed too sensitive.

However, just as he flew to the second-floor broken window, he saw Saul and two other second-rank wizards all standing by the window. The magical array beneath their feet was emitting a faint glow, but he couldn’t sense any magical power fluctuations.

“It’s a concealment-type magical array! I knew you weren’t honest.” The short wizard’s anger rose again.

But before he could respond, he saw Saul standing at the window’s edge suddenly extend his left hand toward him.

Subsequently, countless black blades appeared between them, so numerous and densely arranged they almost formed a three-meter-thick black wall between them.

“Defense!” Seeing the other launch a spectacular attack spell without a word, the short wizard didn’t hesitate and immediately activated his most powerful defensive magic.

Instantly, his entire body became a semi-transparent shadow. Although this spell wasn’t the highest-rank defensive magic he mastered, it had the terrifying ability to deflect damage, making him almost immune to most attack spells.

Almost simultaneously, Saul’s tens of thousands of black blades shot out, instantly passing through the short wizard’s body as if firing a black laser, flying very far before gradually extinguishing.

Only then did the tall wizard react, having no time to think whether his companion was still alive.

“Bastard!” The tall wizard punched the castle wall beside him.

That wall immediately lost half its mass, while the tall wizard’s figure grew another half meter.

He kicked off with both feet, his fists almost door-sized heading directly toward the torrent of black blades.

He wanted to rescue the short wizard first.

When the tall wizard’s fists struck the black blade cluster, an invisible wave immediately spread, making the orderly black blades scatter in all directions.

The short wizard’s transparent figure finally revealed itself partially.

The tall wizard immediately extended his arm, wanting to help the short wizard block some black blades.

The two worked together – one attacking, one defending. As long as he helped the short wizard block attacks, the latter could deliver a fatal counterattack.

But just as his hand reached halfway, his mental power suddenly emitted chaotic fluctuations, as if something was affecting his brain.

The tall wizard’s peripheral vision scattered, vaguely seeing something white charging toward him.

The tall wizard’s expression didn’t change as he immediately raised his foot to sweep at the opponent.

A fierce wind-breaking sound rang out.

As if a huge cannonball fired from his toes, heading straight for the enemy.

“Crack!”

The tall wizard seemed to hear something shatter.

“Hmph, my defense was never passive defense. My belief is that offense is the best defense!”

Though the tall wizard was full of pride, he didn’t forget his task was still to block attacks for the short wizard.

His previously extended arm’s movement didn’t change, planning to continue blocking attacks for the short wizard.

But before his extended arm could completely shield the short wizard, time suddenly stopped, or rather space-time stagnated in his consciousness.

The white giant object originally in his peripheral vision didn’t disappear from the previous attack, but silently, lightning-fast, approached the tall wizard.

The tall wizard only felt something hit his side waist, not much force, normally unable to break through his outer magical defensive array.

But accompanying the impact was a strong and familiar twisting force.

The tall wizard felt as if he’d become a piece of cloth, grabbed at the center and spun violently!

First skin, then muscle, fascia, bones, organs…

In the tall wizard’s consciousness, even the world before his eyes had become a pool of mixed colorful paint.

“It’s pollution!”

At the critical moment, the tall wizard didn’t give up resistance but tried using the spell inscribed in his spiritual body – Heart of Stone – to resist this sudden terrifying pollution.

However, the next second, already sensing chaos, he suddenly felt something pressing against his forehead.

Soft and slippery objects wrapped around his face, tiny tentacles drilling through his eyes, ears, and nostrils.

Jelly-like substance broke through skull gaps, slowly wandering through brain grooves.

All external perception disappeared. The tall wizard’s final consciousness was feeling himself turn into a pool of blood, bit by bit being completely absorbed by the intruder!
