c2220: 2221: Winds in Memory (2)

As Angel maintained the stable influx of magic power to his right eye, the illusionary realm of the mist battlefield suddenly enveloped by an extremely terrifying hurricane.

The wind swept away the clouds.

A large amount of clouds and mist began to be blown away in this hurricane’s rhapsody.

Even without Earl Mi sending a thought, Angel could already tell from the changes around him that Hurricane had finally taken action on the fog battlefield.

Forcefully suppressing irrelevant thoughts in his mind, he focused all his efforts on maintaining this "floodgate" of the right eye.

He knew, victory or defeat rested on this strike.

When he went all out, there was no longer the sound of wind in his ears, nor the flickering shadows in front of his eyes. The whole world consisted only of green patterns, growing luxuriantly, akin to emerald waterweeds in gentle waves.

When the "waterweeds" spread to every part of the pupil, a light cluster surfaced from the depths. Its glow was weak, yet it illuminated this dark, stagnant pool.

As the light cluster broke through the pool’s surface, several gentle green patterns seemed summoned, gently wrapping it, causing the originally faint light to suddenly bloom into a bright brilliance.

And this is the power of Heart Illusion, enhanced by the right eye.

When Heart Illusion leaped from Angel’s right eye and pierced Kraken’s wind spike armor with incomparable speed, rushing into its brow, only then did Angel breathe a sigh of relief like someone drained of energy.

It had succeeded.

Succeeding at the last moment might seem dramatic. But in fact, it wasn’t. Angel rarely used his right eye for spell casting, especially in combat. When he was accumulating experience in the ruins, he used his right eye countless times for spell casting in order to study the green patterns on it, because of the calm and slow casting, he never made a mistake.

It was precisely due to this accumulation that there was a foundation for spell casting in today’s battle; otherwise, all would be for naught. Building castles in the air sounds wonderful, but it only exists in dreams.

As the Heart Illusion broke through the space resistance and entered Kraken’s brow ten meters away, the ever-swelling airbags atop Kraken’s head and its flamboyant waving tentacles slowly came to a halt.

This meant that Kraken was already under the control of Heart Illusion.

Only then did Angel finally move his stiff body; with cracking sounds, waves of tearing pain along with the piercing pain of dislocated bones surged like tides.

Even Angel, who was tolerant, couldn’t help but let out a soft cry of pain.

After all, what he considered minor injuries were actually absolutely lethal injuries to other apprentices.

After casting a Healing Technique on himself, Angel felt slightly more comfortable and then slowly approached Kraken, preparing to complete the last corner of the triangle structure of the Illusory Realm.

The clouds and mist around became increasingly thin, and Hurricane’s wind power had initially shown. But Angel was no longer much afraid, facing the fierce gale, he set Kraken as the last corner.

As his fingertip fell, the whole fog battlefield began to undergo earth-shattering changes.

The previously blown-thin clouds and mist once again spread, even at Hurricane’s full strength, this time the returning mist could not be dispersed.

Moreover, the mist became denser, even more so than before Hurricane had interfered.

When Hurricane’s gale could no longer even disrupt the basic clouds and mist, it indicated a qualitative change in the energy level of the fog battlefield’s Illusory Realm.

At this point, it wasn’t so simple for Hurricane to break the Illusionary Realm. Only by exhausting all the energy of the three major nodes could it possibly break the realm. And the three nodes represented the three wind generals, in this land where wind energy could be replenished at any time, it was no easy feat for Hurricane to deplete the energy of the three wind generals.

Of course, Hurricane could enter the mist, find the wind generals corresponding to the three nodes, and kill them one by one, which would also break the Illusory Realm. However, this would definitely not be worthwhile for Hurricane.

Having done all this, Angel clapped the nonexistent dust off his hands and gently pushed Kraken.

The giant squid, massive like a mountain, was pushed into the mist just like that, and finally disappeared without a trace.

Afterward, Kraken, Kymera, and Lobal would drift within the mist, maintaining the triangular stable structure at all times, allowing this Illusory Realm to be sustained until the end of this battle.

Looking in the direction where Kraken disappeared, Angel seemed to hear Sanders’ rebuking voice in his ear.

If Sanders knew he took a risky move to shoot Heart Illusion into Kraken, he would probably be furious and scold him vehemently.

Substituting himself into Sanders’ perspective, Angel also felt today’s battle was seriously embarrassing.

This was retribution for his shallow foundation.

There was no other way; his accumulation was still too short. If he was given another five or ten years of accumulation, these overlooked flaws would surely be slowly filled.

Angel shook his head, thinking to himself that once the matter in Tidal World was over, he would use the Teleportation Array Plate to return and continue his secluded accumulation.

...

Since his clothes had been shattered by the impact of the air ring, Angel had to change.

This time, he donned the star-moon Wizard Robe he wore while teaching at Ashiliya Academy.

Although he preferred the gentleman’s attire, the clothes in his bracelet were all ordinary garments, so he could only settle for this inherently undamaged Wizard Robe.

After changing into the Wizard Robe, Angel gazed towards the south of the fog battlefield.

Once Hurricane realized the storm couldn’t blow away the mist, it didn’t hesitate, immediately stopping its futile efforts and, without further entanglement with Earl Mi, directly plunged into the fog battlefield.

This suggested that Hurricane highly valued its comrades. Even without ascertaining the situation within the fog battlefield and being unaware if there was any danger, it charged in regardless.

It was likely Hurricane wouldn’t choose the path of killing the three wind generals.

If that was the case, abundant time was afforded to them.

Angel glanced remotely at the direction Hurricane entered, not pursuing battle immediately, but with a flash of his figure, following the vein of the wind, appeared on the other side of the battlefield.

A few wisps of bluish smoke appeared in the mist, and a ghostly shadow topped with a Blue Lantern Flower emerged from the smoke.

The newcomer was precisely Earl Mi.

Under the power of Nightmare Illusion, the fog battlefield was basically smooth ground for Earl Mi. However, since it wasn’t the controller of the Illusory Realm, even though it could come and go at will in the fog battlefield, it knew nothing about the layout inside.

Since Angel had decided to deal with Hurricane, he naturally had to thoroughly inform Earl Mi of the situation within the Illusory Realm, to avoid any unexpected occurrences.

After explaining the general layout, Angel inquired with Earl Mi about Hurricane’s capabilities.

Only with a deep understanding of Hurricane could they deal with it more specifically.

Earl Mi directly transmitted the scenes from its battle with Hurricane to Angel through thought.
