Chapter 398 – Devouring the Earth Mystery Codex (2/2)
Reck and Lucas also watched with heads full of sweat but were reassured to find that Fatty was doing well. Tightly trapped in the earth prison of the Divine mage, they were unable to escape even with Lucas' space magic.
“Fatty, here, here.” Reck suddenly remembered the Earth Mystery Codex in his possession and hurriedly waved at Fatty. After having trapped them, the Divine mage had waited for the result of the battle between Prince Bader and Fatty without thinking of taking back the codex.
Fatty’s eyes lit up. Appearing inside the earth prison with Earthwalk, he received the Earth Mystery Codex from Reck’s hand and pressed it onto the Elemental Skill Book.
A yellow haze emitted from the Elemental Skill Book while the Earth Mystery Codex quickly turned into a pile of flowing sand and disappeared into the Elemental Skill Book.
“Remove the prison of the earth.” Fatty waved and the earth prison soundlessly disappeared. Lucas immediately opened a spatial portal to bring Reck to leave.
“You all die!” With Prince Bader dead and the Earth Mystery Codex no longer, the earth mage wouldn’t be able to escape the death sentence as the Demon Emperor would definitely not spare him. He completely went crazy and sang a string of incantation loudly. The land violently quaked as cracks appeared, and crimson lava erupted from the cracks.
“Armageddon! That’s a forbidden spell!” Fatty exclaimed. After the Earth Mystery Codex was devoured, he basically knew all of the earth spells that existed within.
“How is that possible? Don’t forbidden spells take a long time to prepare?” Reck and Lucas paled. The surrounding space was currently interrupted by strong magic fluctuations. If Lucas insisted on going through the space portal, it was possible that he would be torn up by spatial turbulence inside.
“If the caster consumes their own vitality, the spell can be cast in a shorter time,” Fatty stated in a grave tone.
Within the radius of a kilometer around the Divine mage, the sky disintegrated and the earth crumbled, as lava gushed out from the ground, the space was turned upside down. The scene was like the apocalypse.
“Eternal Frozen.” At this critical moment, Fatty opened the Elemental Skill Book and released the forbidden ice spell Eternal Frozen.
The reason why the Elemental Skill Book could become a Legendary artifact was that no matter what kind of magic, as long as it was recorded inside and there was enough elemental energy to support, it could be insta-cast.
If the Divine mage wasn’t being so desperate to cast the forbidden spell Armageddon right now, he still had a chance to evade. However, the obsession of killing the three humans in front of him had taken over his rationality and prevented him from noticing the other party’s action, or subconsciously he didn’t think the other three people could pose a threat to him.
The forbidden ice spell almost exhausted the ice energy reserve in the Elemental Mystery Realm. Fortunately, after the five elements were fully gathered, ice energy could be derived from the energy system to supply the spell.
A breath of extreme cold emerged between the heavens and the earth. Reck and Lucas shuddered all at once, feeling like they had suddenly fallen from a warm spring into an ice world.
Everything stopped moving, including the Divine mage. The falling meteorites bizarrely froze in mid-air, spewing magma solidified in shape, and the space was no longer turbulent. Everything froze.
Kah… Creak… A small sound could be heard from the Divine mage’s body where a thin layer of ice had crystallized. With his spell interrupted in the middle of chanting, the backlash immediately showed on the Divine mage. Blood flooded out of his mouth, nostrils, and ears.
“Let’s go, Eternal Frozen can't kill him,” Fatty whispered to Lucas. If he was strong enough, Eternal Frozen could have frozen the Divine mage forever, but now seriously injuring him was the best result and there was still some distance from killing the enemy.
Without delay, Lucas opened a space channel. The trio jumped into it.
Rumble! After Fatty’s group was gone, the Divine mage shuddered and all the ice crystals melted. He only spat out a few mouthfuls of blood and lost less than a third of his health, still alive and kicking.
“Arghhhh!!! Whoever you are, I swear I’ll kill you!!!” The Divine mage shouted.
“Ahhhhh! Jackpot, jackpot!” At the same time, Fatty was also shouting. After Lucas brought them back to Sky City using several casts in succession, Fatty immediately took out the Elemental Skill Book.
During the battle, Fatty hadn’t had time to check the Elemental Skill Book. Now that he carefully went through it, he found that its power had increased immensely after devouring the Earth Mystery Codex. Dirt-yellow lights circulated on the book surface. He flipped it open to see almost all earth spells recorded inside.
“The Elemental Skill Book is really perverse. If all the mystery codices are collected to promote it to Legendary, I wonder if you can bombard a Divine expert to death with magic spells.” West sighed with emotion upon hearing about Fatty’s adventure.
“Alright, next we wait for Sky City to be constructed, and then we’ll go to the Mountain of Flames to discuss things with the Fire Phoenix. Once I get the Fire Mystery Codex, I’ll go to the Sea of Ice for my mission,” Fatty decided.
