Chapter 681: Source Harvest

Chapter 681: Source Harvest

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

"Eh?"

Seeing that graceful Apostle approaching him somewhat timidly, Marvin gave her a strange look.

The others turned one after the other with shocked expressions to see who it was.

She seemed even more nervous now and was having difficulty saying anything.

But since she was an Apostle, even if she was afraid of Marvin's power, she had to adjust herself.

She cautiously drew closer while glancing at the Azure Stone in Marvin's hands with a greedy expression, before finally managing to squeeze out, "I, I saw him."

"Actually, many people here should have seen him. He was a very terrifying kid, and he has the potential to become an extremely powerful Legend Wizard… I mean, being able to control Arcane Energy so naturally at such a young age is too frightening. Even those old monsters of the Abyss who are said to understand Chaos Magic very well are only around that level."

"But there is a Legend Spell called Memory Blur on his body. Even those on our level typically can't recall his existence in our memories."

Marvin listened calmly, and no one thought of interrupting their discussion.

The surroundings of the Sky Tower were still undisturbed. After the Astral Sea's forces stood down and the stragglers from the Molten Hell had been defeated, Feinan's forces had become the most powerful group currently in this land of Order.

They wanted to see how the ensuing events would develop.

Marvin was seeking that little boy, but what for?

Some of the powerhouses from Feinan were a bit shocked. They naturally recognized Wayne and knew that he was Marvin's younger brother.

They didn't know what Marvin was up to, but they trusted him because of their past relationships with him, and also because he was someone with great courage.

At the start of the Great Calamity, he was the first to ignite his Source of Fire's Order, and then he killed a potential God to protect Feinan; such a man was very hard not to trust.

...

Under Marvin's steady gaze, the female Apostle actually didn't feel that nervous.

She started speaking more quickly. "No one can remember him or accurately find him. Besides me."

"I forgot to introduce myself, I am Ajani, my God is the God of Stars. My God is in charge of the most powerful Astrology. As long as the Fate God seat is still empty, my God has the most powerful prediction ability."

"I can use special Astrology to help you find his rough location. But you have to agree to give me that Azure Stone."

At this point, she showed visible eagerness as she asked, "With your current identity and status, you wouldn't trick me, would you?"

Marvin smiled gently. "Of course not."

"But I'm very sorry, my dear Lady 'Ajani'."

Ajani suddenly seemed startled by something.

Before she could react, Marvin had already disappeared from his location!

"Woosh!"

Sodom's Blades were unsheathed once more.

Everyone was in an uproar.

They weren't clear about what was happening, but everyone from the Gods Realms chose to silently remain out of the fight.

Speaking of which, the name God of Stars sounded very awe-inspiring, but in reality, he was a rather minor and antisocial God.

Few people knew of her Apostle. Compared with more conspicuous Gods like the Berserk God and the God of Dawn and Protection, he really was easy to overlook.

The Divine Servants could only inwardly pray for that Ajani girl. Who told her to go and provoke someone like Marvin?

A grim shadow appeared next to Ajani.

Marvin had no plans to be lenient.

He had to force her to her limits:

Sodom's Blades quickly flashed as they slashed down, but the daggers were stopped by an extremely dense and viscous power!

It was a powerful barrier!

Marvin was a bit startled.

This was the first time a full-on attack of his met such resistance!

Sodom's Blades had a powerful Divine Restriction effect, and most spells used by those from the God Realms were included in that category. This was also one of the reasons that it had been so easy for him to kill that large group of Clerics.

'This is...?'

'Bireger's Spinning Barrier again?'

Marvin wasn't dismayed at all, and he was actually rejoicing. He definitely felt this when he was chasing Wayne earlier.

This was a wonder of Ancient Magic!

But last time, Marvin hadn't dared to attack with his blades, not knowing what defenses they might meet. This time, he took the initiative to attack, and even if it was Bireger's Spinning Barrier, it wouldn't be able to stop Marvin!

He quickly adjusted his strength and calculated the perfect angle before striking once again.

"Crash!"

Something invisible seemed to shatter!

This time, Marvin's slash ruthlessly stayed its course.

Ajani's body seemed to shatter like porcelain, breaking into pieces!

Marvin sneered, quickly locking onto his target!

Night Tracking!

Not far off, Wayne seemed somewhat disconcerted as he looked at Marvin. "How could you see through my disguise?!"

But his voice didn't sound like a small kid's. It sounded like it was coming from a hysterical old woman!

The shadowy figure of Dark Phoenix was slowly spreading behind Wayne.

"Isn't that Dark Phoenix?"

"Wasn't she already dead?"

"What is she doing with Wayne's body? Is this reincarnation magic?"

Those from Feinan were shocked.

They finally understood why Marvin wanted to find Wayne.

His foe was attached to the body of his younger brother. Anyone would feel anxious about something like that.

As for the others, they decided not to interfere in this matter.

The more troubles Marvin had, the better it would be for them.

Because as Marvin was confronting Wayne, another azure glow flew out of the Sky Tower!

But this time, it wasn't just one, it was three stones!

The Sky Tower really started increasing the number of passes.

Most of those gathered were becoming restless.

"Don't worry about me, I'll handle this properly."

Marvin glanced at these newly appearing runestones and immediately told Jessica, Professor, and the others, "Try to get as many Azure Stones as you can!"

Professor and the others nodded and stopped focusing on the showdown between Marvin and Wayne, instead going to try to gather the Azure Stones like the others.

...

"Your acting skills are pretty amazing, and the spell you used for your disguise also fooled me."

Marvin looked at Dark Phoenix calmly.

Since he found her, he wasn't worried about not being able to force her out.

She had been hiding from Marvin all along, which showed that she currently was far from confident about facing Marvin.

Back then, Marvin had still needed the Four Totemic Pillars to take down Dark Phoenix, but now, even if Dark Phoenix was standing in front of Marvin at her peak, she would still be trampled by him.

'Maybe I really should have just ascended in the 3rd Era.' This intense thought was at the forefront of Dark Phoenix's mind.

Her meticulous plan of a thousand years had been destroyed by Marvin. The feeling of anger and frustration from this setback was something others couldn't understand.

Now that she was in Wayne's body, she could see the hope of rebirth.

The kid's luck was very good. He actually obtained the inheritance of Ancient Magic, and it was very likely that it originated from the Wizard God's inheritance!

She would get everything as long as she got the Fate Tablet!

As long as she had that Azure Stone!

But this opportunity was once again thwarted by Marvin.

She bellowed hysterically at Marvin, "How could you see through it!"

Marvin shrugged. "Because I know the Apostle of the God of Stars. She doesn't look like that, and her name isn't Ajani."

Dark Phoenix was completely at a loss when she heard those words.

She definitely couldn't have guessed that this was the reason!

After all, she had planned it very carefully when she chose her fake identity.

The God of Stars was one of the most reclusive Gods of the Astral Plane. He had very weak Divine Power, and both his Godhood and his Domain were quite lacking in usefulness. His Divination and Divine Spells were way too inferior. And the Apostle of the God of Stars had yet to appear in Feinan. That was why Dark Phoenix had decided to adopt her identity.

Who would have thought that Marvin actually knew the true Apostle of the God of Stars?!

This was absolutely impossible!

Dark Phoenix felt like the world was collapsing into a feverish delirium.

She pointed angrily at Marvin as she shouted, "You deceived me!"

"I'll be born again! I am the Goddess of Magic chosen by Fate!"

Marvin looked at that woman's shadow with a faint trace of pity. Since things had reached this stage, there was nothing more to say.

Should he bother telling Dark Phoenix that he actually knew all the Apostles and the Divine Servants of the Gods?

In the game, Marvin crossed paths with most of the Gods, as he eventually became one himself. And although the God of Stars was antisocial, he also developed somewhat in Feinan after the Great Calamity. Marvin actually did some side-quests for him...

When Dark Phoenix tried to pass herself as that Apostle with an inaccurate name and appearance, she was just shooting herself in the foot.

But since she dared to cross Marvin's bottom line, she should be ready to die!

Marvin's expression turned even colder.

"You lunatic. You still haven't figured it out? Some things are bound to be impossible."

Marvin stared at Dark Phoenix's shadow. "You harmed my younger brother! Even if you were the true Goddess of Magic, I'd still kill you today!"

Dark Phoenix was about to retort, but Marvin made a move out of nowhere!

The shadow behind his body lengthened, and it felt as if a pair of eyes were watching her attentively.

She suddenly felt fear.

It was as if an invisible saw was penetrating her defenses and carving apart the bits of Divine Source that were still recovering within her!

She shrieked, almost unable to keep her shadow condensed!

[Source Harvest]!

This was the result of the Harvest ability that developed from Night Kill's Spirit Orb passive after Night Kill reached the 4th level and fused with the False Divine Vessel.

This skill had been upgraded from a soul attack to one that could directly target Divine Source!

Since Marvin hadn't used it yet, he was testing the effects of the skill in a probing sneak attack. He hadn't expected the results to be so good.

The Divine Source that Dark Phoenix had painstakingly recovered almost completely scattered.

The shadow disappeared back into Wayne's body.

She used Blink to cover as much distance as possible in one cast, trying to escape from this place.

But Marvin wouldn't let her run away this time.

With the Azure Stone in his hand, the Order Power blanketing the area had no restraining effect on him.

Endless Path!

Marvin locked onto Wayne's body while the latter tore away, running purely on survival instinct and continuously using teleportation spells, trying to shake Marvin off.

Unfortunately, she didn't succeed.

In fact, as she tried to warp again for the third time, she was blocked.

"It's you…"

When she saw the person that just arrived, the voice of the shadow in Wayne's body clearly started quivering.

It seemed that in Dark Phoenix's heart, this person was even more frightening than Marvin!
