Chapter 466: Dragon Soul

Translator: Translation NationEditor: Translation Nation

Due to the effect of the Slow Halo, Marvin's Perception was decreased quite a bit.

But that didn't necessarily mean that he had no way to feel this space.

Earth Perception, imparted to him by Blade Master Kangen would be the most effective method at this time.

This skill was based on the user's mind's understanding and connexion to the world, not on cold hard data.

Marvin's understanding was pretty good, he had received this ability after mastering Desperation.

Under the effect of Earth Perception, he began to comprehend this space's peculiarities.

The entire underground temple seemed to be composed of a paste-like substance, thus it felt especially damp.

Some data appeared on his interface as a result of his Perception.

And Marvin's mind reacted to the corresponding data.

He entered a fantastic realm, it was the first time he didn't need to be looking at his interface but could directly feel the data received.

The underground temple's bricks were brownish white.

The texture wasn't clear.

But in a place not far, there was a floor tile that turned black.

It seemed to have been burnt.

And Marvin knew that this wasn't caused by a Dragon Breath or a Dragon's spell.

That floor tile wasn't black before.

Because he clearly remembered that a moment ago, Butterfly was standing on that same floor tile.

He began thinking hard to remember that floor tile's original color before his mind jumped up again!

'Reddish brown!'

'Yes, it was reddish brown!'

Marvin didn't really care about the color of the temple, but under the effect of Earth Perception, he could feel a few clues.

Clearly, Butterfly didn't disappear without a reason.

She had previously been standing on that floor tile.

And now, that floor tile turned black.

The rest of the floor hadn't changed and was completely white.

The exploding sounds were still echoing in the distance.

'Could it be that the red floor tile was the passage to the 2nd floor?' This thought flashed in Marvin's mind.

This was a very likely idea.

Although Butterfly was unreliable, she still wouldn't decamp without leaving a word or clue.

She most likely triggered a mechanism unintentionally and left involuntarily.

And this was the Dragon God's temple, if there was such mechanism, it was most likely leading to the next floor.

Marvin recovered from his immersion in Earth Perception and experimented with the black floor tile for a bit, with no results.

After some time, the black floor tile turned white and blended with the other bricks, visually no different from them.

'Was it a one time use kind of thing?' Marvin looked at it pensively.

But in any case, this path was clearly blocked.

He hesitated for a bit before quickly rushing toward the explosions!

He already knew that something happened, he might have a better chance by going over to try his luck.

...

Marvin's footsteps were completely silent in the dark temple.

He carefully observed the floor on his way.

But although this long corridor was filled with floor tiles, they were all completely white.

He didn't glance upon a single reddish brown floor tile.

This annoyed Marvin a bit.

After passing through this dull corridor, a light blue glow shined ahead of him.

There was a ruthlessly dazzling light, and the exploding sounds came from there.

In fact, rather than an explosion, it would be more accurate to say that it was some repressed Dragon's roars.

Marvin's footsteps stopped outside the blue light, looking at its center with apparent pity.

Seemingly sensing someone approaching, that light shrinked, before angrily moving forward, showing the appearance it had held before its death.

But Dragon Souls were mostly incorporeal, the form it appeared at was also very vague.

Marvin clearly understood that this was a Dragon Soul, but anything further, he didn't know.

This pitiful Dragon Soul wouldn't be able to injure Marvin.

It was trapped.

Marvin cautiously sized up the Dragon Soul's state. Despite the outward violence, it was severely weakened.

In the middle of the blue light, a total of six huge Dragon teeth seemed to have appeared out of nowhere and nailed the Dragon Soul to the ground.

These Dragon teeth were light yellow, marked with runes carrying a great amount of Divine Power.

They were absorbing the Dragon Soul's power.

It was a fierce power.

Marvin frowned.

Who could be so evil that they wouldn't even let a Dragon Soul go?

These Dragon Teeth were extremely frightening things, refined by Alchemy along with Divine Power. Even if they seemed rough, they were actually very sharp and were filled with small barbed tips.

An instant of carelessness, and one's strength might be absorbed in an instant.

From what Marvin sensed, these Dragon Teeth seemed like corrupt Monsters longing for life.

But they were apparently lenient toward that Dragon Soul, otherwise it wouldn't have been able to keep up for this long.

'It's a pity, if only there was a Master Alchemist.'

'A knowledgeable Legend Wizard would have been good too. Who knows how useful a Dragon Soul like this could be?'
