End of the Magic Era - Chapter 989

Chapter 989: Entrance

Everyone wanted to occupy one more spot to increase their fighting power within the temple, and thus, Dylas’ sudden words made the eyes of the leaders shine.

‘Right, if we don’t have enough spots, we can snatch the spots of the Andlusa Kingdom. They couldn’t collect their share of mana crystals anyway, so isn’t this a good opportunity?’

Sky City’s leader took the lead. “You couldn’t even gather enough mana crystals together, so you don’t have the qualifications to occupy an area. Aren’t you dragging all of us down? I really didn’t expect the Cloud Tower and the Black Tower to be such rubbish. The both of you only got nine mana crystals together… This is really disappointing.

“Even some of our Odin Kingdom’s forces unable to enter the Raging Flame Plane Battlefield are several times stronger than that. It’s very disappointing that the Andlusa Kingdom actually fell to this level.”

The usually silent leader of the Quicksand Tower also added with a hoarse tone, “You might as well give up your spots since you couldn’t gather enough mana crystals. Don’t waste everyone’s time.”

The prince of the Odin Kingdom nodded as he coldly looked at the Cloud Tower and the Black Tower’s forces. “I had heard that the Cloud Tower and the Black Tower were quite powerful, but I hadn’t expected to see this. This is why people say you shouldn’t believe rumors. Such weak forces wouldn’t even have the qualifications to exist in the Odin Kingdom. They would be destroyed within three days.

“Hand over your spots and don’t burden us. Let me see… Your two forces can just collect some resources outside. Don’t follow us, that would be throwing your life away and harming us.”

The Odin Kingdom’s forces were all of the same mind, criticizing the Cloud Tower and the Black Tower for being too weak and burdening everyone.

Jouyi and Harren almost spat out blood in anger.

The two of them had extremely unsightly expressions, but they couldn’t retort. They hadn’t gathered enough mana crystals yet still wanted to occupy an area… This was indeed burdening the others.

The Merlin Family alone had provided twenty-two mana crystals, so the Odin Kingdom couldn’t use anything against them. But the two towers only gathered nine together, and that was far from the thirty-six required. At this rate, the human side wouldn’t be able to enter the temple.

Seeing that everyone was supporting him, Dylas immediately jumped in and pointed at Lin Yun’s group.

“Hand over the mana crystals and f*ck off. Don’t drag us down, you won’t be able to bear the consequences if we can’t enter the temple because of you.

“Don’t blame me for being rude if you keep being. Are you trying to drag us into the grave with your incompetence?”

Dylas took out his magic staff and materialized his Shadow Cloak as he planned to drive out the Andlusa Kingdom’s forces right away.

Jouyi and Harren were red from anger. As the leaders of the Black Tower and Cloud Tower, when had they been strongarmed by someone like that before? And furthermore, it was because their own strength was too inferior…

Lin Yun looked at the Odin Kingdom’s people with a wooden expression.

“What’s the hurry? Doesn’t our Andlusa Kingdom possess another force?”

Dylas unrelentingly answered, “What do you mean another force? We are all here. If someone is missing, it means that they are dead. Andlusa’s country bumpkins are awful weaklings. Having you enter the Raging Flame Battlefield was the biggest mistake. Now that you are dragging us down, leaving you behind would be the best choice.

“Hmpf, you are still hoping for the last force to arrive? Don’t put your hopes too high. Those purebred Andlusan chickens definitely died. Even if they haven’t completely fallen, they’d probably be in the same state as the Cloud Tower and Black Tower. Don’t put your hopes on the small chance that they gathered five mana crystals.

“Your Merlin Family was only able to hunt so many magic beasts because you grasped some ingenious killing method. Don’t think I’m unaware of your business transaction with the Henry Family.

“If not for this, weaklings like you definitely wouldn’t have gathered half of the mana crystals required,” Dylas sneered.

The other forces of the Odin Kingdom didn’t speak, but their attitude showed that they agreed with Dylas.

At that time, Dedale came out and immediately told Dylas to withdraw before ordering Lin Yun’s group, “Since you are unwilling to give up on the third area, we will give you some spots. We don’t have time to wait on you. I’ll make up for the five mana crystals you are missing, and then I’ll distribute the ten spots.

“Your three forces will have a total of three spots while the remaining seven spots will be given to our Odin Kingdom.”

Dedale’s words reduced the number of spots of the Andlusa Kingdom to three, while the Odin Kingdom’s spots rose to twenty-seven.

Such a huge gap was bound to ensure that the Andlusa Kingdom couldn’t even hope of getting anything. With only three individuals, the Odin Kingdom’s people would only need to use a tiny bit of effort to marginalize or wipe out the Andlusa Kingdom’s side. They might not even have to do it themselves.

How could Lin Yun agree to this kind of severe condition?

Before Dedale could finish his words, Harren blurted out in shock, “Impossible, we can’t give up the third area. Three spots? You are dreaming!”

Dedale sneered and instantly used his power to pressure Harren, his eyes filled with a cold killing intent.

“What? You don’t want to give up your spots? Do you want everyone to wait until you have enough mana crystals? To wait until the Raging Flame Beastmen catch up to us? Either you come up with enough mana crystals now, or you give up your spots. We can’t just wait for you here!

“Wanting spots when you are weak is a waste! You might as well give them to people powerful enough to contend against the Raging Flame Beastmen!”

The Cloud Tower and the Black tower were disgruntled. They were the most powerful forces of the Andlusa Kingdom, but they had suffered disastrous losses and they were now the weakest forces here.

The Cloud Tower had been unlucky enough to run into the most powerful Beastmen in the Raging Flame Battlefield, the Gold Beastmen. As for the Black Tower, they had come across several powerful magic beasts at once. The losses were disastrous, and their most important True Spirit Magic Tools had been destroyed. The two forces together would be unable to handle one of the Odin Kingdom’s forces now.

At that moment, Lin Yun softly said a word.

“Enough.”

Dedale’s expression slightly changed as anger coursed through his eyes.

At this time, fluctuations came from the thin veil of mist as the Andlusan royal family finally appeared. It looked like they hadn’t suffered disastrous losses like the Cloud Tower and the Black Tower.

Seeing the Azurewave Sword Saint walking over, Harren promptly asked, “Do you have five mana crystals?”

The Azurewave Sword Saint was puzzled, but he also noticed that the current atmosphere wasn’t very good, so he just nodded.

Harren sighed in relief, “Take them out quickly, we are still missing five mana crystals to open the entrance of the temple.”

Lin Yun remained calm as he held all the mana crystals. Dedale’s condition couldn’t be accepted, and agreeing to it would only lead to becoming cannon fodder.

Moreover, the Andlusa’s royal family had yet to reach this place at that time, so they could still get the required mana crystals together.

The Cloud Tower and the Black Tower had been extremely unlucky and suffered disastrous losses, but even so, they still gathered nine mana crystals. On the other hand, the royal family had the Azurewave Sword Saint, who wasn’t inferior to Jouyi and Harren, along with the royal family’s Magic Tools.

The Gold Beastmen had already encountered the Cloud Tower, so it wasn’t likely that they had also met the Andlusa Kingdom’s royal family. They wouldn’t have fallen unless they met a group of five or six magic beasts at once, and if they arrived, regardless of how they looked, they would definitely have gathered at least five mana crystals.

The Azurewave Sword Saint was wise and experienced. He handled matters in an earnest way and wouldn’t take the initiative to provoke six Pseudo-Heaven Rank Magic Beasts like the Henry Family.

Since they’d gathered enough mana crystals, the Odin Kingdom could no longer use that excuse.

Dedale’s complexion worsened a bit, but he stopped Dylas’ attempts at coercion. They had been giving the Andlusans a chance by not taking all their spots, but the louts didn’t feel grateful, which made him a bit angry.

He frowned as he looked at the remaining four forces of the Andlusa Kingdom.

“You really are too weak, letting you occupy ten spots is too wasteful. Merge your team with our team and we shall redistribute the spots. Weaklings shouldn’t waste the spots to enter the temple.

“You’ll burden everyone when we meet the Raging Flame Beastmen if you are too weak.”

Lin Yun calmly shook his head.

“No need, ten spots are just enough for us to use, so there is no need to trouble yourself.”

Dedale was resentful as he coldly snorted.

‘Damnit, these Andlusan country bumpkins are really stubborn. They are so weak, yet they are still insisting on wasting the spots. There are thirty spots in total… If I could assign them all, I would naturally distribute them to the thirty strongest individuals.

‘Hmpf, you don’t know how to be grateful. What an embarrassment. You won’t get anything at all if you weaklings go in, and you’d actually be dragging us down once you die, giving the advantage to those Raging Flame Beastmen.’

Dedale didn’t say anything else, but he was in a bad mood.

The Andlusan side gathered thirty-six mana crystals and could naturally occupy that corner. Regardless of how the spots were distributed, this had nothing to do with the Odin Kingdom.

They then inserted the mana crystals and distributed the spots.

The Odin Kingdom was a bit different, as everyone wanted one more spot. In fact, the Andlusa Kingdom distributed their spots faster than the Odin Kingdom did.

Lin Yun, Xiuban, Reina, and the patched puppet occupied four spots, while the Cloud Tower, the Black Tower, and the Andlusa Kingdom’s royal family occupied two spots each.

Enderfa was a Magic Tool Incarnation, and the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel was fused with one of Lin Yun’s Core Meditation Law Sets. Even if his body was different from Lin Yun’s, he didn’t need to occupy a spot at all.

After two minutes, the Odin Kingdom finally finished allocating their spots, and the thirty people went into different sides of the array in front of the door. The thirty round protrusions were placed at the array’s thirty nodes.

Terrifying mana fluctuations appeared as the one hundred and eight mana crystals were embedded on the entrance.

If the power contained within the one hundred and eight mana crystals was all released at once, even the soul of a Heaven Rank powerhouse would be blasted to smithereens by the explosion.

Yet, such a large number of mana crystals could only be used as the keys to the temple’s entrance.

As mana surged and spread from the entrance, the ancient power felt similar to an Ancient God’s awakening. The numerous patterns covering the temple started shining.
