Chapter 737: Force II

By nature, the Giant Tribe was a tribe that excelled in combat. Back in the days, the Giant Tribe had once conquered numerous territories. The number of tribes that they had offended exceeded even the Spell Casters’.

Moreover, the Giant Tribe only had one ultimate existence, namely the Titan Giant. However, the Giant Tribe still emerged victorious and struck fear into the hearts of other civilizations.

Their drive was their innate fighting spirit. Hence, no Giant would be afraid of combat.

This was especially true for Giant Bonio before Merlin right now. His terrifying power seemed to form an invisible prison, like circles of ripples that washed over Merlin endlessly.

If Merlin were any lesser than a three-Maxim Legend, most likely he would be easily deterred by this fighting spirit.

“Truly a tribe born to fight…”

This was not the first or second time Merlin had been involved in combat with the Giant Tribe. Merlin was very knowledgeable regarding the special characteristics of the Giant Tribe. The stronger their abilities, the tougher their defense capabilities would be.

Thinking about this, despite knowing that he was much more powerful than Giant Bonio, Merlin did not dare let his guard down. The multi-colored Wizard Heart loomed behind his back, emitting a mighty pressure.

At the same time, his invisible Mind Power also extended outward.

“Hallucinate!”

Merlin went almost all out, and activated his Hallucinating spell. Instantly, it trapped Giant Bonio in an illusion. Nonetheless, Giant Bonio struggled violently. Merlin was able to bind him for a moment but would not be able to control him for a long time.

“Thunder Flame!”

At this moment, Merlin did not hesitate, and unleashed his most powerful abilities – thunder and fire. These two constituted the most violent Elements, so they were Merlin’s most powerful Offensive spells.

A huge fireball sparking with thunderbolts the size of an arm slammed viciously onto Giant Bonio’s body.

“Roar…”

Giant Bonio’s punch sailed across the air. This fearsome punch came from a great distance away without any vibration through space, yet it landed brutally on Merlin’s body.

“Bang.”

A dull thud sounded. Merlin was completely knocked away. Fortunately, his body was protected by spells. Water-like ripples flashed across his body and dissipated without a trace.

Merlin gazed icily. There was no trace of hesitation as he extended another finger. The multi-colored Wizard Heart behind his back trembled slightly, and the flames and thunder before him seemed to grow stronger.

“Boom.”

Finally, Thunder Flame impacted viciously on Bonio’s body. The arm-width sparks of thunderbolts blew up Bonio’s body, and the flames engulfed him. Bonio was not even able to put up any resistance before he was reduced to ashes.

Merlin’s expression was stone-cold as he looked at the dimension before him. There was no longer any imprint on it. Instead, there was a lingering aura of a masterless dimension. Somehow, it was over without fanfare.

A powerful Giant King died just like that. Merlin felt slightly somber. Perhaps, one day, he would end up the same way.

“This is the boundless territory!”

Merlin mumbled under his breath. If Bonia had not died, then Merlin would face many troubles. Therefore, no matter what, he would have to dispose of Bonio forever.

Now, Merlin had succeeded. Everything was going on smoothly!

“Control the Elemental Origin!”

Merlin flew into the dimension, and immediately took control of the Elemental Origin. This dimension was three times bigger than an average dimension, so the minerals inside were also very rich. Merlin dispatched the mining robots to the mining sites while he leveraged on the Elemental Origin to deepen his understanding of the Darkness Elements and Fire Elements.

…

Three days later, Wizard Franz and the others arrived at the third dimension occupied by Merlin. Seeing the huge beam on Franz’s face, Merlin immediately knew that they were also successful.

“Wizard Merlin, we bring good news. We’ve successfully occupied the second dimension, and also killed the strongest contender of the Unihorn Tribe. However, Wizard Ducas seems to have suffered some injuries, so he’ll need to recuperate for a while.”

“Good job. Then, we’ll allow Wizard Ducas to recuperate.”

Merlin also nodded. Although he already expected as much, he was still pleased to hear the good news from Franz. This signified that the first step of his plan had succeeded.

These three dimensions finally could be joined together with the Gerva Dimension and the Franz Dimension. As a result, the periphery of the Spell Caster civilization no longer ended at the Gerva Dimension but stretched to the Franz Dimension on the furthest end.

Of course, this was only the beginning. Merlin had only occupied three dimensions so far. With ten subordinates who were comparable to Great Legends under his command, even if each of them controlled just a single dimension, Merlin would need more than ten dimensions.

However, they could take a short break for now. Merlin still needed to sort through the minerals on these two dimensions as well as use the Elemental Origin to refine his understanding of the Darkness Elements and Fire Elements, so that he could consolidate an ultimate Maxim as soon as possible.

All of these required time!

…

In the vast and frigid Void Zone, there was an incomparably huge dimension. Its size was approximately ten times larger than an average dimension, and it was shrouded in a layer of purple light.

This layer of purple light, based on faint wisps of aura, was enough to strike fear in anyone’s heart. On the other hand, the mighty existences were able to sense the antiquity and primitiveness contained in this aura. Above all, there was a sense of vexation that was exceptionally vicious. Despite the interminable years that had passed, this sense of vexation refused to subside.

This purple dimension floated quietly in the Void Zone. No one knew where it came from as it simply floated around slowly. Then, gradually, it drifted into chaotic territory.

That was the boundless territory!

“Look, what’s that?”

In the Void Zone, two below-average foreign tribe creatures, yet to achieve the level of a Legend, were just about to enter a dimension when they suddenly discovered this purple dimension.

Upon seeing this purple dimension, both were staggered. They had never even seen such an incomparably huge dimension. In addition, a constantly floating dimension was very rare. At the very least, it had never existed in the boundless territory.

What shocked the two of them most was the aura emanating from the dimension. Not only was it very powerful and compelling but there was a sense of irrefutable authority that impacted their innermost heart.

However, this aura was simply too ancient and dated. Furthermore, there was no trace of life at all. The entire dimension was lifeless.

Although this was a lifeless dimension, it was still a masterless dimension. Disregarding the fact that a lifeless dimension had no Origin, just the aura exuded by the purple light alone was enough to determine that this was not an ordinary dimension. Most probably, there was a great existence that once upon a time occupied this dimension.

“Opportunity, this is a golden opportunity! We’ve spent so much time and effort in the boundless territory without bearing any fruit. Right now, our opportunity has dawned. Let’s go inside. Perhaps, there’ll be some treasures!”

The two foreign tribe creatures exchanged a look of excitement. They had been staying in the boundless territory for such a long time but were yet to obtain any treasure, let alone occupy a dimension. Such a feat was beyond their abilities.

Even after such a long time had passed, their abilities had not improved by a significant margin.

Now that they had found the purple dimension, this was their golden opportunity. Both were cautious. Once they had determined that there was no danger, they clambered headfirst into the huge purple dimension.

However, after the two men had entered the purple dimension, they did not stop the purple dimension from moving forward. Hence, the purple dimension gradually floated from the more deserted area of the boundless territory to denser areas.

Finally, more people noticed the purple dimension. This time, there were also Legend-level existences. After overcoming their initial shock, they began to enter the purple dimension.

Soon, the entire boundless territory was stirred up by the unanticipated appearance of this purple dimension…

…

“Hum.”

In a large dimension, a multi-colored Wizard Heart suddenly appeared in the sky. A spine-tingling pressure seemed to descend upon the entire dimension.

Amid this occurrence, a huge Mind Power swept over the dimension.

“Still a little short…”

Inside a castle, Merlin raised his head, and opened his eyes. At this moment, Merlin could also see the multi-colored Wizard Heart suspended in the air. Although his Wizard Heart was still multi-colored, the Darkness Elements appeared to be more powerful. They had even overshadowed the Fire Elements. Hence, the entire Wizard Heart was faintly darkening.

Merlin retracted the multi-colored Wizard Heart. In the past six months, his expansion could not be said to be slow. Under Ducas’ leadership, Merlin had successively snatched another five dimensions.

None of the dimensions could pose a threat to Merlin. Furthermore, Merlin had also erred on the side of caution, and did not spare any of the past controlling forces of the dimensions. Therefore, there was not much trouble.

Nevertheless, the feat of seizing eight dimensions in one shot meant that Merlin could not remain low-key even if he wanted to. All the strong contenders of the nearby dimensions began to heighten their guard and gathered some good friends in their respective dimensions, just like how Franz had hired them before.

Thus, it would be impossible for them to snatch a dimension like the last time. Every time, Merlin had to act personally.

Regardless, the benefits brought by these eight dimensions had been apparent. Merlin’s Darkness Elements had been greatly enhanced. Just the tiniest boost would be enough to help him consolidate an ultimate Maxim and become an Honored Legend.

However, it was this tiny gap that Merlin had not been able to bridge. It was as if something was still lacking.

The other Elements had also advanced significantly. Mastering the Elemental Origins of eight dimensions proved to be not futile. On the contrary, the benefits were immense. Nevertheless, the Elemental Origin also had its limitations. For some Elements, Merlin truly had no talent, so consolidating a Maxim would require much more effort than others.

“Swish swish swish.”

Suddenly, a few familiar figures appeared in Merlin’s dimension. A quick sweep of his Mind Power told him that it was Franz and the others.

“Why are you so anxious? Did something happen?”

Merlin contemplated for a moment, and discontinued his study on the Elemental Origin. He stepped out, and upon pinpointing the location of Franz and the others, he traveled via subspace to reach them.
