Chapter 721: Ruba’s Monunt II
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
This Veron who stood before him gave rlin an eerie feeling. He could also detect a trace of dangerous aura from him.
“Who are you?”
Veron took a step forward. His plain-looking deanor had imdiately transford into a frightening presence, and his special force field shrouded rlin without warning.
Boom!
An invisible pressure made rlin feel like his entire body was restrained. He was unable to move forward quickly.
Fortunately, rlin had already covered himself with spells, and the Wizard Heart had erged behind him at once. rlin’s expression also turned icy when Veron attacked him without any warning.
“Ice Seal.”
rlin stretched out a finger. The surrounding area was frozen into ice which was extending at high speed towards Veron. The frigid draught had overwheld the three Sanctuary Contenders.
Chi! Chi! Chi!
Dissimilar to when rlin was facing off the three Sanctuary Contenders, rlin’s spell did not manage to touch Veron before it seed to have encountered a powerful and invisible force. The ice crystals shattered and were unable to trap Veron.
At the sa ti, the surrounding pressure seed to have turned chaotic. An incredible force was trying to tear apart every layer of defensive spells rlin had on his body.
“There’s not just one special force field?”
rlin’s eyebrows rose. He did not expect Veron to be so powerful. Moreover, Veron did not only have a single type of force field but a combination of force fields each attributing to a different ability. It was unpredictable, and a three- or four-Maxim Legend might not be able to resist his attacks.
Only soone like rlin, who had consolidated a groundbreakingly powerful Wizard Heart comparable to a six-Maxim Great Legend and was second only to an Honored Legend, was a match for him in combat.
“Darkness Cover!”
rlin waved his hand again and the sky turned dark. Darkness blocked out the rays of light and turned the entire sky pitch-black. This was no ordinary darkness. Even one’s Mind Power could not penetrate it. It was also filled with lethal attacks.
“Chaos!”
Veron’s long hair swayed despite the stillness in the air. His special force field covered a vast area, including the sky. Hence, the power of his special force field exploded and blew away the endless darkness forcefully.
“Fire!”
rlin tried to employ various types of spells, but no matter what spell he used, they were disintegrated easily by Veron. At the sa ti, Veron’s force field could also be easily broken down by rlin’s defensive spell.
The two of them began to fight!
This was the first ti rlin had encountered an opponent who was a match for him in terms of power since he beca a Great Wizard. As a Great Wizard who was second only to an Honored Legend, rlin had thought that he would never encounter a worthy opponent anymore aside from soone who was an Honored Legend.
It was unexpected that Veron he had just t had quite a powerful force field too. These twisted, chaotic, and weighted force fields were powerful enough to shatter any spell attack to dust. There was no doubt that Veron was also a powerful existence second only to an Honored Legend.
“This is troubleso. If I don’t mobilize the Illusory World or the empire-level warship, I won’t be able to defeat Veron!”
rlin’s gaze flickered with hesitation. The situation right now was very clear on the fact that Veron was equally powerful as rlin. If they were to compete on the basis of stamina, rlin was unwilling to waste so much of his Magic Power.
“I’m from a foreign world. I’m here for the Ruba’s Monunt behind you!”
Since rlin could not defeat him, they might as well work together. rlin’s objective was to obtain the item left behind by Aruba in this world, not to destroy it.
“Ruba’s Monunt?”
Veron’s eyes lit up with interest. Then, the three Sanctuary Contenders gave him a brief introduction on rlin’s identity. Even Veron, a Sanctuary Contender who had lived for god knows how long, was taken completely by surprise.
After a while, he took the initiative to retract his special force field and showed so goodwill.
“Soone from the foreign world, huh? Our space here was really tough to the point we could not break through it, but I have a vague premonition that behind this space is an endless vast world... True enough, I was right. Do you know how to leave the Mobata world?”
Distinctive from the other Sanctuary Contenders, Veron did not seem astonished by rlin’s origin from a foreign world. However, it was all that surprising if one were to think about it. Based on his abilities, it was not impossible for Veron to discern that there was another world behind this space even though he could not rip open space.
“I’m afraid the secret to leaving the Mobata world lies within the secret of Ruba’s Monunt. You’ve been here for a long ti, have you discovered the secret of Ruba’s Monunt?”
rlin did not continue to elaborate on his identity but redirected the conversation to Ruba’s Monunt.
“Ruba’s Monunt. Despite knowing that there are secrets hidden within and have been deciphering it for a long ti, I’m still unable to decrypt its mystery. Since you are here for the secret inside Ruba’s Monunt, perhaps you may have an idea?”
Both of them were well-aware that their abilities were evenly matched. Therefore, Veron treated rlin as an equal. Although he did not say it outright, Veron’s aning was very clear. Should rlin managed to decipher the secret of Ruba’s Monunt, both of them would share it. Together, there was nothing they could not solve.
rlin nodded. Although he did not have any specific ideas as of now, he was sure that there was sothing special about this place to warrant the sphinx sending him here.
“I’ll try.”
rlin walked up to look at the huge Ruba’s Monunt. There were so carvings of humans on top which appeared to be a set of training drills.
“This carving on top is a set of training drills?” rlin asked curiously.
Veron nodded. “Yes, it’s a set of training drills, but it’s the most common and most primitive training drills, so it’s not very useful. Many people have tried cultivating this set of training drills, but its effect is quite appalling.”
After all, Ruba’s Monunt had stood here for a very long ti. Due to developnts over long periods of ti, the training drills were constantly updated and many people had invented more powerful training drills.
However, rlin froze when he read the moves for the training drills. Were these postures not the sa as the mysterious relief sculptures he had in his hand?
There were other pictures besides the training drills. These pictures gave rlin another jolt of shock. They were exactly the sa as the one he had seen in the secret place regarding the developnt of the Glorious Land. Of course, the Mobatans would not understand what it ant.
rlin was sure that this Ruba’s Monunt was definitely linked to the master of the secret place, the ever-mysterious Aruba.
“Have you tried shrouding Ruba’s Monunt with your force field?” rlin asked Veron as he examined the stone monunt carefully.
“Of course I’ve tried that, but there seems to be no effect. We’ve tried everything we can but still couldn’t discover its mystery. If not for the fact that Ruba’s Monunt is too miraculous and indestructible, so people might even think that it’s rely a prank.”
Veron also appeared quite helpless. Everyone knew that Ruba’s Monunt contained secrets, but no one could decrypt it.
“If even your special force field is useless, then I’ll try using my Mind Power. This is a characteristic unique to Spell Casters. If it’s as the sphinx guardian said, that Aruba had left sothing behind in this world, I don’t believe it would be unaffected by a Spell Caster’s Mind Power.”
rlin knew very well that Aruba would not leave sothing behind but forbid them to be taken away. It was because no Spell Casters had been here before, so the prerequisite was not fulfilled. Now that he had fulfilled the prerequisite, rlin wanted to try again.
Hum...
When the Mind Power projected by rlin touched Ruba’s Monunt, the white light on the stone monunt changed right away. The carvings on the monunt also seed to co alive and beca highly animated.
“It’s moving, it’s really moving. Does this an that the secret of Ruba’s Monunt will soon be revealed?”
Veron and the other three Sanctuary Contenders were unbelievably thrilled.
“There’s a change!”
rlin’s heart was also bursting with anticipation. He had spent a lot of effort coming to the Mobata world simply to discover what this mysterious Aruba had left behind.
Boom!
Suddenly, Ruba’s Monunt shook violently. A dark and unfathomable vortex appeared on top of the huge stone monunt. It seed to lead towards a mysterious place.
New words were forming in the Molta language on the monunt itself.
“He who seeks to enter this gate must need a Spell Caster’s Mind Power and a Sanctuary Contender’s blood.”
“The fresh blood of a Sanctuary Contender?”
rlin glanced at Veron. The other Sanctuary Contenders also seed eager to participate. With the secret of Ruba’s Monunt at stake, no one was willing to give up the opportunity.
Chi!
Veron was not slow to point a finger at Ruba’s Monunt. A drop of blood flew out and was quickly absorbed by Ruba’s Monunt. Similarly, rlin projected a strand of his Mind Power into Ruba’s Monunt.
Hum... Hum... Hum...
Subsequently, the pitch-black vortex emitted an even stronger suction which seed to be pulling rlin and Veron into it. Both of them did not resist and allowed this suction power to suck them into the vortex.
Swish!
The two figures disappeared in an instant, leaving behind three astonished Sanctuary Contenders.
“They’re both gone?”
“They must have gone to search for the secret of Ruba’s Monunt. Let’s try too.”
These three Sanctuary Contenders, of course, did not dare to fight Veron. Now that both rlin and Veron had gone ahead, they also wanted to explore the secret of Ruba’s Monunt.
Thus, the three of them dripped their blood onto Ruba’s Monunt. After a while, they realized that it was utterly useless no matter how many drops of blood they dripped onto Ruba’s Monunt. Ruba’s Monunt did not change at all.
“Is our blood useless? Or perhaps it’s because we don’t have that person from the foreign world?”
The three Sanctuary Contenders were disappointed. This was their best chance to discover the secret of Ruba’s Monunt, yet they missed it.
“We don’t know if Sir Veron will be able to discover the secret of Ruba’s Monunt. If this secret can help the Mobatans overco our predicant, then it would be the most helpful.”
Although the three of them did not manage to enter, Veron did. The secret of Ruba’s Monunt had plagued the Mobatans for tens of thousands of years. No one knew what the secret actually contained.
Hence, the three of them could only pray for Veron in their hearts. Then, they stood guard before Ruba’s Monunt. They believed, surely, Veron would return soon.
