Chapter 606 - The Firecloud Dimension
Chapter 606: The Firecloud Dimension
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In the pitch-black Void Zone, red circular ripples were floating. Immediately, a group of what looked like gray specks of dust melded into the darkness of the Void Zone, and materialized into a group of foreign tribe members.
On the heads of this foreign tribe were two sharp horns. Their burly bodies exuded evident viciousness as they stared keenly around their surroundings.
“Hmm? Someone is coming. Hehe, finally someone is coming. I knew it! Since the Firecloud Dimension became a masterless dimension, it would attract many foreign tribes to fight for it. We won’t join the fight but instead, we’ll guard this route. I’m sure we’ll be able to ambush many foreign tribes. So, they’ll be the ones fighting tooth and nail while we derive the most benefits. Haha, everyone, get ready. When those two get near, attack them at once!”
Next, the foreign tribes dissipated into ripples on water, and disappeared without a trace.
“Whiz whiz.”
Soon, a huge flying ship appeared in the Void Zone, covered by dense carvings of runes that formed a large Magic Circle to protect the flying ship.
In the flying ship were Merlin and Alcra. They had left the Saitu Dimension more than a month ago yet they had not encountered any foreign tribes.
Suddenly, a strange ripple stirred, and a large gray net descended upon the flying ship. Under this large net, the Aurora Ship’s Runic Magic Circles could not move at all.
“Haha, caught you. You’re the first foreign tribe we caught today. Now, hand over your precious items. Looking at this casting tool, you must be Spell Casters. Hehe, I’m sure you have quite a lot of precious items.”
Following the drop of the large gray net, the foreign tribe team with two horns on their heads appeared. A total of seven or eight of them had surrounded the Aurora Ship which was carrying Merlin and Alcra. The auras on their bodies were comparable to Great Wizards.
Nevertheless, the strongest among them was only a peak Great Wizard. In the open territory, this team was considered weaker than most. Otherwise, they would not form a team of seven to eight beings. Most of the top-level foreign tribe teams composed of only three to four beings.
If any foreign tribe teams were composed of seven, eight or even up to a dozen beings, it was probably because they did not feel strong enough, so they relied on their large numbers to explore the open territory together.
Merlin and Alcra exchanged a glance. Alcra smiled and said, “Just as we’re worried that none of the foreign tribes send us their regards, these Orcs knock on our door. Merlin, allow me!”
Alcra seemed eager to try, so Merlin nodded. Alcra laughed heftily, and revealed his true form in an instant. A huge sprawling tree appeared and pierced through the large gray net. At the same time, countless roots shot out toward the seven or eight Orcs.
“A preeminent existence just below the Orc King! D*mn it, how did we bump into such a powerful Tree Folk? Escape, everyone, escape now!”
The leader of the Orcs seemed well-informed. When he saw Alcra’s true form, he immediately realized the trouble he was in. His face went white, and wanted to escape immediately but it was too late. Alcra was, after all, comparable to a preeminent Great Wizard. How would he allow any of the Orcs to escape?
So, thick strands of roots began to lash out at the Orcs.
“Slap slap slap.”
Every brutal strike of the thick roots was accompanied by the tortured screams of the Orcs. Although Alcra’s attacking powers were not as strong as his defensive powers, he was still a preeminent Great Wizard. These ordinary Great Wizard-level Orcs was not capable to withstand Alcra’s hit. Hence, every strike could kill one Orc.
After seven lashes, seven of the Orcs were dead, leaving only the leader Orc who was comparable to a peak Great Wizard. After witnessing the death of seven of his companions, the last Orc paled, and let out a mad howl. He exposed the Orcs’ true form, and his speed burst several times faster. Then, he flew frantically toward the depths of the Void Zone.
Speed was not Alcra’s forte. Seeing that the Orc was about to escape, Merlin stepped forward and sniggered softly. “Haha, Alcra, this last Orc is quite fast, let me do the honors.”
Alcra nodded. Indeed, speed was not his forte. If his opponent was not trapped, then Alcra’s speed would probably lose out to the stronger Great Wizards.
“Illusion!”
Merlin’s invisible Mind Power swiftly caught up to the last Orc. Then, the Orc’s face turned blank and stopped in his tracks. With a calm expression, Merlin stretched out a hand and whispered to the Orc, “Come back!”
Sure enough, the Orc turned around and flew back towards Merlin and Alcra. Seeing this, Alcra nodded in silent approval. Merlin’s Hallucinating spell was really incredible. Anyone who was struck by his Hallucinating spell completely turned into a lamb for slaughter, without a single ounce of resistance.
“Hoo…”
Merlin retracted the illusion and the Orc immediately regained his awareness. Looking at Merlin and Alcra standing right in front of him, his face paled and made another attempt to escape. However, he was already securely bound by Alcra using a few thick roots.
“Say, why did you ambush us?”
Merlin stared coldly at the Orc.
The Orc’s eyes widened and quickly thought of a plan. He knew that the two people before him were preeminent existences far beyond his imagination. He did not want to die like the rest of his companions.
Thus, he hurriedly said, “The two of you must be looking for the Firecloud Dimension, right? The Firecloud Dimension has fallen into the hands of some preeminent existences, but the fight is still going on intensely right now. I am not qualified to compete with them, so I prepared to ambush some foreign tribes on their way there. I didn’t expect that on my first ambush, I encountered both of you.”
After a pause, the Orc continued, “I can bring you to the Firecloud Dimension, but I beg that once you find the Firecloud Dimension, you can let me go.”
Merlin and Alcra exchanged a look, their eyes betraying twin looks of delight. Unexpectedly, their first encounter with a foreign tribe team had brought them news of a foreign dimension. Moreover, the fight for the dimension was still ongoing.
“Tell us the specific details of the Firecloud Dimension!”
Merlin did not answer directly but continued questioning.
The Orc did not dare object and answered hastily. “The Firecloud Dimension used to be occupied by a Giant King. However, the Giant King was killed by a more powerful existence when he was trying to seize another dimension. Hence, this dimension became a masterless dimension. Currently, there are many powerful existences rushing towards the Firecloud Dimension to fight for it. Since the two of you are also preeminent existences, if you go there, there is a chance for you to occupy the Firecloud Dimension.”
The Orc also hoped that Merlin and Alcra would go and fight for the Firecloud Dimension, because only then would he have some hope for survival.
“There are no Legends involved?”
Merlin was highly cautious of the Great Legends.
The Orc shook his head. “I can’t tell for sure. Right now, in the open territory, there may be many Great Legend existences, but most of them already own a dimension. Moreover, the battle between Great Legends can be very intense. Perhaps, for a while, none of the Great Legend existences would pay attention to this dimension.”
Alcra looked at Merlin. In a low voice, he whispered, “Wizard Merlin, this is a great opportunity. If the two of us join forces, other than a Great Legend, who can withstand us? If we obtain the controlling rights of this dimension, I will fully absorb the power of the Dimension Core and attempt to combine my nine Tree Saplings into one. Then, I will make a beeline towards becoming an upper rank Tree Folk!”
Alcra obviously desired the Firecloud Dimension. He had indeed reached the bottleneck. In fact, the last time, he was almost ready to make a beeline towards becoming an upper rank Tree Folk, but in the end, the news was leaked about the dimension which eventually attracted that terrifying Giant King. As a result, he lost the dimension as well as his nine Tree Saplings. He suffered heavy losses.
Seeing Alcra’s eager gaze, Merlin nodded lightly. He turned around and told the Orc, “Bring us to the Firecloud Dimension, then you can leave safely!”
“Oh? I will definitely bring you two to the Firecloud Dimension!”
The Orc’s face showed a hint of surprise and immediately led Merlin and Alcra away from this area. He did not dare ask Merlin and Alcra swear on the Ultimate Order. After all, he was just a lowly prisoner.
“Hopefully this time things will go smoothly…”
Alcra muttered softly. After the last defeat, he and Merlin had to start afresh, so he actually did not have much confidence. Nevertheless, seeing Merlin’s calm expression, Alcra’s anxious emotions could not help but calm gradually.
