Chapter 521: Nightmare (6)
Translator: _Leo_ Editor: Kurisu
Cannon decided to use his strongest weapon when facing a sealed form, however, he had not expected that the weapon would do nothing.
*BAM*
A loud noise came from the sky and a ray of golden light flew at Cannon.
Cannon noticed that his skin that was exposed to the air was illuminated by the golden light; he could feel that his body was about to melt.
He quickly turned the greatsword around with no hesitation and took out a red bottle, crushing it on the blade. The red liquid inside the bottle was quickly absorbed by the blade.
The greatsword vibrated and a pattern that looked like a hydra appeared.
He completed the whole procedure within a short period of time. The golden ray was already in front of his eyes when Cannon finished everything.
*BAM*
He was blown away by the impact and was no longer protected by the black feathers. Cannon's body was covered with wounds and blood was spurting out of them.
Cannon stabilized his body after several seconds. He floated in the air and watched the snowflakes fall. There was no monster around him.
He noticed that his altitude was greatly increased. Cannon raised his head and saw a large black cloud rotating in the sky. The cloud was the source of the red snowflakes.
***********************
In the core of the dimension fissure.
The golden giant sneered and opened his mouth, releasing two more golden rays—he was aiming at the other wizards.
The silver bat already turned into a human being. He looked like a young man wearing a silver robe and his ears were a pair of large swinging wings.
The wings were longer than ten meters and quite eye-catching. Each wing was much longer than the man's body.
The silver wings were releasing silver light needles which were blocking the golden rays released by the golden giant. However, he was having trouble repositioning as there were so many golden rays around.
The man tried to move away from the golden rays, but the human-faced birds and illusions kept attacking from different angles. He had to reach to the silver earring on his right ear.
He took down the earring and threw it into the air.
*CHI*
The earring turned into a human face and floated in the air. The human face was more than one meter long.
"How dare you!" The human face saw the man and looked enraged. The face was about to charge at the man.
The man blinked his eyes and released some purple light. "Help me handle the human-faced birds!"
The face groaned and glared at the man, then turned around and flew to the human-faced birds. The human-faced bird turned into golden light and the human face turned into silver light. They started fighting in the sky, however, the silver light was weaker than the golden light and all it could do was stop the human-faced birds from attacking the man for a certain duration.
The man finally had time to finish off the illusion. He turned his head around and looked at the other side.
Sando, Bossier, and Mystery were fighting against a golden human-faced bird. The bird had an amethyst on the forehead. The illusions of the wizards were created by the amethyst.
The illusions had the same appearance and abilities as the wizards, but their bodies were translucent. The illusions' power levels were lower, but the wizards still needed some time to eliminate them.
Sando was the head of department change and she was not good at battles. She had to protect Mystery while blocking the attacks. That was the reason why the illusions lived for so long.
Bossier was also having trouble with the illusions. He spent too much energy on Dark Sealing and was trying his best to stay alive. Not all Dukes had the same dedication as Mystery. Most of them would never sacrifice themselves for others.
Also, the wizards could not reposition themselves due to the illusions and the golden rays. Without the black feathers protecting them, they would not last a second in the sky.
The song that was echoing in the sky was getting louder and louder. The upper body of the giant entered the wizard world. It felt like there was a strong force that was trying to push him back to the dimension fissure, however, it seemed like the giant could easily handle the force.
The giant chuckled and shouted, "I'm almost there… I'll devour you all when the channel is completely opened…"
The power of Nightmare Realm was getting stronger and stronger in the air. The red mist in the air looked the same as the red mist in Nightmare Realm.
No one knew that the giant was so strong. The elite wizards of the wizard tower were strong, but they were having trouble surviving the battle at the moment.
"Wait! More sealed forms will invade our world if we can't proceed further!" the old bat shouted anxiously. "Sando, that's it! We have to do it!"
"Are you sure about this?" Sando's expression turned serious, she leaned to the side and dodged the attack from the illusions.
"Yeah! Before it's too late! We can't do anything else since we can't move!" the bat man responded anxiously; he was pushing the illusions away using his wing-like ears. However, he could not eliminate the illusions completely.
"Fine!" Sando quickly took out a small black stone from her mirror and looked at it with a sad expression.
The stone looked like a normal stone that could be found anywhere on the ground.
"Sadly… This is the only secret treasure of Dream Lord that we know how to activate. If we activate it now, when will we find the next one…"
Sando sighed and threw the stone into her mouth, swallowing it after chewing it several times.
It sounded like there was a woman singing in a high-pitched tone from her throat. The voice lasted for several seconds and started fading seconds later.
*WOO*
At the same time, the bat man raised his right arm—there was a mouth full of sharp teeth on his palm. The mouth was making some light vibrating noises.
The noises blended in the sound and the mix of the sounds turned into some strange music.
The music sounded like a mother that was singing for her kid; however, the music would change from time to time. It also sounded like a song sang by a dancer and sad chords played by a piano.
The creatures in the sky all stopped moving in the strange music; the situation was the same for the living beings on the ground. They all closed their eyes and it almost looked like they were sleeping. The soldiers who were severely injured forgot their pain and it looked like they were enjoying the music.
The monsters in the sky also stopped attacking as they could no longer move in the music. The human-faced birds and the golden rays were also stopped. It felt like time was stopped.
The bat man and Sando were the only two who were not affected by the music. Cannon, Mystery, Bossier, Alice, and Wood Dragon were also sleeping in the music. They looked happy and calm.
*Roar*
The giant noticed that the situation changed and roared. His voice was loud and terrifying, but it was weak in the music.
The dimension fissure in the sky started shrinking at a fast speed. It seemed like the music buffed the realm power of the wizard world.
The realm power of the Nightmare Realm was also weakened by the music. The energy waves were also modified by the music.
The golden giant tried to grab the bat man and Sando.
Strangely, the hands of the giant were gradually slowed down and stopped before they could reach the two wizards.
The giant was enraged and his body was covered by intense golden light. The energy wave he released stopped the music for a second, but he used too much force and the dimension fissure almost become unstable.
The giant decided not to use too much power. The music returned after the golden light disappeared. He watched the dimension fissure shrink—its size was decreasing quickly.
The giant opened his mouth and shouted. It felt like he was trying to say something, but the music was much louder than his voice.
The giant's upper body was slowly pushed back into the fissure as the fissure shrank.
"It's over…" A smile appeared on Sando's face while the music was still coming out of her mouth. She exchanged eye contact with the bat man; they both looked relieved.
"Yeah, it's over…" The bat man also smiled, but he looked tired. "The secret treasure of Dream Lord… The sealed form has no way to fight back since he needs to stabilize the dimension channel."
The fissure was getting smaller and smaller. However, the fissure was no longer shrinking after its length was decreased to around ten meters. The giant tried to widen the fissure again, but he failed.
"The song has reached its limit, you'll have to seal the dimension channel. You need to move closer to the fissure and close it as soon as possible!" Sando talked to the bat man through energy particles.
"No worries. I can do it." The vibration noise was still coming from the bat man's palm as he flew to the fissure.
A silver stripe formed by runes appeared on the other hand of the bat man and the stripe formed a spinning ball that was covered with glowing runes. The shiny runes were eye-blinding.
The bat man narrowed his eyes and his body turned into a silver string, flying toward the black fissure.
The fissure was getting closer and closer.
100 meters…
50 meters…
30 meters…
20 meters…
*CHI*
A black shadow appeared in front of the fissure and stopped the bat man.
"We meet again… Teacher…" The shadow raised his head.
The bat man stopped and looked at the shadow; he was surprised.
"It's you?!"
