Buzz! With a soft sound, Link, Eliard, and Dylosen appeared miles away.

The southern forest surrounded them. It was extremely dense and covered almost all the space. There was swampy patch below with grass growing on it.

The three appeared a few feet above the ground. When they appeared, Link and Eliard adjusted how they stood and landed steadily. Dylosen had more trouble. His body was black and smoking. When he appeared, he dropped down like dead weight.

Link’s heart jumped. He knew that the situation was bad and Dylosen would most likely die this time. Using his mind, he cast a low-level force field and caught the falling man.

He and Eliard quickly steadied themselves. Eliard went up to check Dylosen’s state. “It’s bad,” he muttered. “He’s practically baked!”

Link had stopped the sneak attack midway, but Dylosen still couldn’t dodge it. He was hit so badly that he was awaiting death. The Level-15 Lava Knight was clearly powerful.

Link also went up to check Dylosen.

From three feet away, he could smell the pungent fragrance of baked meat… His injuries seemed grave. Getting closer, Link saw that Dylosen’s robe was practically all gone. Only a shred still stuck to his flesh. His body was charred, and almost all his skin was gone.

He put his hand to Dylosen’s nose but could barely feel any breathing. His pulse was just as weak. Everything showed that Dylosen was at the brink of death and could die at any time.

Link immediately cast the Dragon Essence Vitality at Dylosen. A few seconds after the Mana surged into Dylosen, he suddenly opened his mouth and let out a gust of scalding air. Then his breathing strengthened.

A while later, he opened his eyes. His first sentence was, “They took the Divine Fragment!”

Link had noticed, but they’d been in a hurry, and the transmission didn’t work on the Divine Fragment. He had to give it up to save Dylosen. They could worry about it later.

“You almost died, and you still worry about that?” Eliard said.

“No, no, it’s okay if I die. The Divine Fragment has to get to the Snow Mountain Archmage or else everything will be over. Hurry, Ferde Lord, you must get it back!”

Dylosen’s burnt face cracked open, making him look horrifying. He was panicking and his features twisted. He looked like a demon. Regular people would probably get scared to death, but Link and Eliard weren’t regular men. Their hearts were heavy. To Dylosen, the fragment was more important than they’d imagined. Without it, everything would be over.

However, the Lava Knight’s power was also unimaginable. Judging by the sneak attack, that guy wasn’t stupid either. Now that Dylosen was hurt like this, Link and Eliard weren’t his match alone. It would be suicide if they went to steal the fragment.

Dylosen realized this too, of course. He breathed and said with difficulty, “I know that Lava Knight. His name is Mozur. He’s known as the Explosive Duke. His fire power is really domineering and has explosive strength. Less than ten people in all of Aragu can block his sudden attacks. He has weaknesses too though.

“The first is that his explosive power is hard to maintain. He needs at least two seconds to re-accumulate power. Second, he loves the Fire Sect Holy Maiden and doesn’t let anyone insult her. You can use it to easily anger him.”

Knowing that his explosive strength couldn’t last was important. Link could create a tactic to escape from a full-on hit. As for the second point, this was an even more fatal flaw to an advanced Warrior. This meant his emotions could be swayed and utilized by the outside world. Emotions were representations of the ripples of one’s soul. Mozur’s weakness was basically a flaw in his soul.

A Soul Magician could easily influence his soul after knowing this weakness. Even if he wouldn’t die, his combat ability would be greatly reduced.
