Chapter 531: Flames
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
In the pitch-black darkness, a shadow stood in front of Marvin.
It was because of her sudden appearance that Marvin wasn't able to act to help the Paladin.
He stood in the Shadow Plane with his fists firmly clenched, helplessly watching the Paladin as he died from the Lich's negative energy ray.
"Why did you do that?"
He looked at the shadow before his eyes.
There was some surprise on his face. Although he had been prepared for unexpected occurrences, he found it quite jarring to see her in this place.
Hathaway.
Hathaway seemed a lot more mature compared to last time they had met.
She was also a lot taller. It could be seen that the flow of time for her was very unusual.
"Do you want to throw away your life?"
Hathaway still was unperturbed. After her rebirth, her character had changed greatly.
Although there was a great power in her body, and even if she was doing all she could to hide it, Marvin could still feel it.
It seemed like she could explode anytime.
"I can't just stay here and do nothing!"
Marvin struggled hard, but couldn't get rid of the binding effect.
In fact, he had managed to enter the Shadow Plane and was about to rush out when Hathaway suddenly appeared and stopped him.
He wasn't surprised that she could enter the Shadow Plane, as it wasn't a very difficult place to enter for an Anzed Witch. But he found the extent to which she could use Witchcraft in the Shadow Plane rather unexpected.
It had to be known that because of the Shadow Plane's unique nature, most skills and spells were unusable here.
It could only be assumed that the Witchcraft system was above the Shadow Plane's Laws, which caught Marvin unprepared.
...
"You have more important things to do."
Hathaway glanced at him, then glanced at the Lich in the temple before slowly saying, "At that time, you said that you would help me if I needed you."
Marvin froze.
Hathaway continued, "Throwing your life away now certainly wouldn't help you repay me."
"Thus, I stopped you."
"Moreover, you are simply unable to withstand the Wilderness God's power. It seems like you want to save the little girl and that Paladin, but I can tell you with certainty that under the watch of the Wilderness God, it's impossible for you to do this."
Wilderness God?
Marvin's mind sank, could that guy have really recovered already?
He looked at Hathaway and asked, "What exactly do you know? What did you appear here now?"
Hathaway didn't answer, and instead just calmly watched what was happening.
She frowned, apparently thinking of something.
Marvin began to feel fidgety.
This feeling of being unable to do anything was really uncomfortable. Even if he knew Hathaway had no malicious intent, he also couldn't help looking with sorrow at Griffin and Molly dying in front of him. Moreover, Isabelle was still there. They had agreed to attack together, but then he disappeared, so who knew what Isabelle would do!
...
In the temple, under everyone's sorrowful gazes, the Bone Dragon viciously bit down on the completely defenseless Molly and swallowed her in its stomach in one bite.
Rumble!
The Two-Headed Bone Dragon raised his neck and let out a loud burp.
A black fog rose up, and the pitiful little girl completely disappeared before everyone's eyes.
"Good work, Puppy."
The Lich let out a laugh, "Leave first, leave this to me."
Under the Lich's order, the Two-Headed Bone Dragon and the Jade Banshee disappeared in a fog of darkness.
During the process, Isabelle, who had been hiding on the side, held her breath.
She had countless opportunities to try to save the girl, but the Winter Assassin had forcibly stopped her.
She also was a very cool-headed person and knew that she might not have been able to grasp those opportunities and ultimately chose to clench her teeth and endure.
'What about Sir Marvin? Where did he go?'
A storm appeared in the girl's ever-peaceful heart.
Because she had been discovered by the Life-Severing Ivy before, she used the Winter Assassin's most powerful hiding skill, [Assimilation].
Her body twisted around the pillar and looked like another stalk of the cyan ivy.
Even her aura was a perfect copy of the ivy!
Marvin had clearly told her that he would be making a move first.
She might not necessarily listen to others, but she would definitely comply with Marvin's requests!
Because he was Masked Twin Blades.
...
"You can release us now," the Dream Shrine's Cleric harshly said.
He didn't feel too great.
The others in the temple either had been restrained by Life-Severing Ivies or were dead.
After the death of the Paladin, there were only three people left.
The Lich turned and laughed while looking at the three of them. "Okay, I'll send you on your way."
Then, a flame shone in the darkness.
A fierce aura stabbed from behind!

"Roar!"
The frightening roar echoed behind the three followers of the Dream God and seemed to rip apart their eardrums.
The Cleric had a bad feeling and immediately brandished his scepter, wanting to use a few defensive Divine Spells.
The two Paladins readied their swords in self-defense.
But next second, a scorching heat flooded through their bodies.
The Legends bound to the ceiling could clearly the scene of the three being attacked by extremely small flames.
The flames flew out from within the layers of ivy and possessed shocking energy and leapt onto their bodies.
In that instant, their Divine Spells became ineffective.
The terrifying flame went through their clothes and burnt their skin, before continuing deeper to work on the bones, turning them into a pile of powder.
It only took mere moments.
Those who witnessed the scene felt cold sweat trickling down their backs.
"Woosh! Woosh! Woosh!"
The flames stopped burning, but didn't disappear.
In the depths of the temple, ivy kept moving around, as if hesitating.
The Lich took a step forward, smiling. "Rest assured, respected Teacher, I'll definitely bring you back from the endless darkness."
"Please believe me."
Who was he talking to?
Could it really be the Wilderness God?
Soon, the answer was revealed, the cyan ivies kept moving around before finally, a thick vine appeared.
At the end of the vine was a huge flower, and its petals looked as if they were made of fire.
In the core of the flower was a man's face made of flames!
That face looked as is all the evils in the world had been mixed together.
Its expression was distorted. It roared, apparently trying to say something.
Those present couldn't understand the language.
But its every word made people shiver.
This wasn't the power of his eloquence, but the power of the language!
Ancient God Language.
"Heavens, the Wilderness God will truly resurrect!"
"Damnit, how could I have believed those rumors?"
"This was that Lich's plot. We are done for, if the Wilderness God resurrects, the entire Crimson Wasteland might become his food!"
The Legend all showed expressions of despair.
They were just vulnerable mortals without their Legend powers and simply couldn't resist the Life-Severing Ivies.
Moreover, they could feel that after this blazing face appeared, the Life-Severing Ivies became more excited.
The vitality drain sped up!
At that time, a person who had been hanging inertly from the ceiling opened his eyes!
...
"I want those petals."
In the Shadow Plane, Hathaway pointed at the throbbing petals on the edge, with an excited expression on her face.
"This is the Wilderness God's avatar. Although he doesn't have the consciousness of the main body, he is still very powerful. But rest assured, he'll leave soon."
"It's not that easy for Bandel to resurrect the Wilderness God. The Wilderness God struggled at death's door for so many years, preserving a spark in order to ignite his Divine Fire. Afterwards, he would need a great amount of power to support himself, which is also why so many Legend powerhouses have been tricked to come here. This isn't the end of the sacrificial ground."
"Do you see those people and low level Divine Servants on the ceiling? The Wilderness God didn't kill them because he knew he would return one day."
Marvin frowned as he acknowledged, "Those are his nourishment."
Hathaway nodded, while pointing at Marvin. "You also are."
Marvin shrugged. He was different from the others, he still had some cards in his hand. He also wouldn't mind trying to call for his Archdevil grandfather's help in a matter of life and death. The Wilderness God might be very troublesome, but a figure in charge of the Nine Hells was on the same level as the peak figures of the Universe.
Although Marvin didn't want to have too many connections with him while he was still weak, if he was pushed against the wall, he wouldn't mind trying.
In any case, the Crimson Wasteland wasn't Feinan, so summoning an Archdevil here wouldn't put the people in Feinan in a terrible situation.
But he didn't say those words, and only calmly asked Hathaway, "What do I need to do?"
Hathaway wordlessly handed a jar to Marvin.
...
In the temple, the Lich began to discuss with that flaming face.
The flaming face and the Lich eventually came to a compromise. It jumped out from the petals and turned into an extremely small flame before falling into a palm-sized oil lamp in the Lich's hand.
That oil lamp looked simple and quite ordinary, but only a treasure could hold such an exceedingly hot flame.
"I'll leave it here for you."
The Lich spoke gleefully toward the darkness, "I hope that when you return, you'll become even more powerful and give Teacher the most perfect body."
The next second, he reached out grabbed at the void.
"Woosh!"
Isabelle, still hiding at the edge of the pillar, had been seen through once again and was directly caught by the Lich.
"Another gifted young girl."
The Lich softly said, "I'm in a good mood, so I'll let you return from the audience free of charge."
Following his laughter, the two disappeared from the temple, and the entire temple started shaking!
Countless Life-Severing Ivies split open, revealing their bloody mouths, and ruthlessly pounce toward the "nourishment" on the ceiling!
