Chapter 57
"You think you can come and go as you please? There's no such thing as a free lunch." The wizard muttered as he turned into a red flame and chased after Peter Amu. After Peter Amu was severely injured, the disgusting aura of his soul could no longer be hidden. The wizard could easily track his position.
Peter Amu was spat out by the Realm a thousand kilometers away. His teleportation scroll had successfully broken through the Runic Barrier, but he was not in a good condition.
Not only was his body torn apart by the Realm, but his soul was also torn apart.
He was prepared to lose his body and part of his soul, but he did not expect it to be so painful when it came down to it, especially when it came to his soul. He wanted to give up on this part of his soul, but when he thought about the long recovery period and the huge amount of resources he would need to recover, he could only give up on the idea.
However, the greatest danger he faced was not the pain. Originally, the scroll he used just now recorded the coordinates of the coast where he logged in. If he was not interrupted, he could leave the Mage Continent without anyone knowing. But now, the teleportation distance was greatly reduced, and he had to face the pursuit of an official wizard.
Normal people would not be able to imagine how a person with only half a body could live, but a wizard was a wizard after all. They would always have their own ways.
Peter Amu took out a corpse from his dimensional pocket and accurately cut off half of it with his fingers. With a snap, he attached it to his body. With a mysterious incantation, this part of the body actually came to life and grew together with the other part of his body.
As soon as he finished this task, he saw a red glow on the horizon, followed by an undisguised energy wave.
"Damn it, damn it, damn it!" Peter Amu cursed as he took off and flew towards the coastline.
The official wizards of Moldova Tower did not bother to hide their energy waves. The elementalized body of an elementalist gave him miraculous speed and speed that far exceeded that of flesh and blood. The distance of a thousand kilometers was covered in the blink of an eye. In his fiery red eyes, the ugly gray soul of Anti-Mage was clearly visible.
"Why are you running? How can a prey that has been targeted escape the hunter's pursuit, especially when you are so weak as the prey? "The wizard whispered to himself, but his voice was clearly transmitted to Peter Amu's ears.
At this time, the despair that Peter Amu was facing was probably similar to that of Adam. However, even if Adam was saved by someone, it was absolutely impossible for anyone to come out and save him at this time.
A pillar of liquid fire appeared in front of Peter Amu. He knew it was impossible for him to escape the pursuit of the Magician. He stopped in the air and glared at the Fire Elemental Magician with his half-naked, uncoordinated body.
"You're not going to run anymore? That's right. Anyway, you rats will always have a way to survive. Why don't you give this part of your soul to me? "The official mage of the Wizard Tower was similar to Blake when he first showed his power. Half of his body had been converted into Elementium, and he was able to trigger a phenomenon that far exceeded the magic of an apprentice.
"Sinners who blaspheme magic, one day you will bring about your own destruction!" Peter Orme's hoarse voice was filled with hatred and curses. He pointed at the mage and the Soul Rend spell appeared once again.
The official mage looked at the grey pillar of light with amusement. He had no intention of dodging and allowed the magic to hit his body.
The low-level magic that Adam could not block was like a joke in front of the official mage. The pillar of light exploded in front of the mage and was immediately destroyed by the living elements. The official mage was not hurt at all.
"A low-level trick that hasn't changed for tens of thousands of years. Look, this is the result of you rejecting knowledge. You call yourself the controller of souls, but you don't even know what a soul is. To be honest, if it wasn't for the will of that great existence, if it wasn't for the fact that you still have some use, "the official mage said as he waved his hand at Peter Amu. The raging flames easily penetrated his energy defense," any few Hyperdimensional Magicians would be able to annihilate you all. "
Peter Amu simply gave up on dodging and allowed the flames to follow him and burn his body that had just been pieced together into ashes.
This was a Level 7 official Magician. He was definitely not someone that Peter Amu could fight against. Anti-Mages were weaker than mainstream Magicians. They were at a disadvantage even when they were of the same level. Furthermore, the Wizard Tower Magician in front of him was of a higher level.
He viciously tore apart his carbonized body and said to the Magician, "Great existence? Bah! She's just a traitor, a traitor of the ancient nobles and the noble Magicians! She, and all of you, will be abandoned by Ether sooner or later. Sooner or later, all of you will be destroyed … "
The flames were getting thinner and the temperature was getting higher. However, the high temperature did not completely destroy Peter Amu. Instead, it formed a seal that completely isolated Peter Amu's broken body and soul from the outside world.
"A bunch of ungrateful idiots. There's no cure for them." He reached out his hand and the sealing flames gradually shrunk. Finally, he held it in his hand. After the Magician finished his sentence, he turned around and flew back to the trial ground.
The other official Magician was a little regretful. If he did not personally capture or kill Anti-Mage, his merit and reward this time would be greatly reduced. Moreover, because it was within the scope of his responsibility, Anti-Mage had killed many Wizard Tower apprentices in the trial ground. He would be scolded by the Wizard Tower when he returned. The most he could do was to maintain a balance. He looked at the unconscious Adam and said, "Kid, may Ether bless you and keep you safe. Then, hmm, you'll probably be very grateful to me for saving your life and pay me a handsome reward, right?"
The Fire Elemental Magician shook the fireball and laughed, "He's just an apprentice. What good things do you expect from him? Moreover, this unfortunate kid was hit by Soul Tear. It's hard to say if he can keep his soul. "
"No, he wasn't hit. It was just a graze. And look." The Magician gently flicked his finger on Adam's forehead. Adam's whole body trembled from top to bottom. Then, the Magician's finger left his forehead. At the same time, what was captured was a weak Psychokinetic and a trembling Devil.
The Fire Elemental Magician was stunned. He patted his head and said, "Is he still alive? Eh, this is …? Oh, I know this. Psychokinetic, the best research result of Moldova Tower in recent decades. So, he's that … "The Magician did not remember Adam's name and vaguely said," That apprentice? "
The Magician nodded, "Yes, it's him. This kid is very rich …"
The Fire Elemental Magician shrugged and said, "Then I wish you good luck. But within Moldova Tower and even The Fifth Element Holy Tower, there are not many Magicians who specialize in Soul Energy. This kid's problem is not so easy to solve."
"There's always hope, isn't there?"
.....
The last thing Adam saw before he regained consciousness was the moment before the Soul Rend spell hit him. A flash of metallic light appeared in front of him and blocked most of the spell's power. But before he could relax, a small part of the grey light sent him into darkness.
After being hit by the Soul Rend spell, all of Adam's thought processes went into a state of suspended animation. His body's movements were completely controlled and returned to a state of low efficiency. But strangely, he could feel his own soul.
What was a soul?
No one on Earth knew. No one could even prove if it really existed. But in this world, the soul did exist and was separated from the mind.
Adam's thought processes went down, but his soul was still working.
This was the first time Adam saw his soul and the pure white space that he named the 'Sea of Souls' after he woke up.
In this space, Adam had fought against the ten billion viruses and won. Now, he had to fight a second time.
The grey negative energy formed by the despairing souls appeared in the Sea of Souls and quickly attacked Adam's soul.
In the face of such a situation, Adam actually felt relieved. It was just another virus invasion, and the quantity was far less than when he had transmigrated here. Although the quality was better, the current Adam was no longer in his weak state, so it should be easier to solve the problem.
Although he thought so, it was not as easy as he imagined. Adam forgot about a variable, the power of magic.
If the previous DOS attacks that followed him through transmigration were just ordinary DOS attacks that only invaded the bandwidth and consumed computing power, then the Soul Rend spell was a more advanced code virus. It was written by the great programmer, magic, and constantly showed the nature of 'mutation'.
So the process of eliminating the virus became very difficult.
Adam could not eliminate the virus through mechanical mental attacks like before. Instead, he had to come into contact with the virus to understand how it worked and the 'core code'. Then, he had to find its weak point and gradually weaken the power of the virus. Only then could there be a possibility of eliminating it.
The negative energy produced by the despair of the human soul could not be measured with common sense. It was full of destructive tendencies. Not only did it destroy Adam, it also constantly self-destructed. The most troublesome thing was that with Adam's method, whether it was destroying the virus or self-destructing the virus, it would not weaken its power. Instead, it would become stronger and more difficult to deal with.
It was like a dead knot. Adam was temporarily helpless. However, at least his soul was not in danger of being destroyed, so he did not despair. Instead, he found it very interesting.
Anti-Mage, or the ancient sorcerers, had their own unique system. Although it was now obsolete, archaeology was still a kind of research. There was no information in Moldova Tower in this area. Now that there was a ready-made laboratory and experimental samples in front of Adam, he was very interested in studying it.
However, this kind of research skipped the process of exploring the theory and directly entered the empirical stage. Moreover, the test subject was himself.
