The Wizard World

The sky was orange.

The light from the setting sun illuminated the clouds, they looked like boiling blood.

A hole appeared in the sky above a beautiful silver city, spurting out countless black dots, which looked like insects leaving their nest.

The black dots gathered and turned into a black cylinder that connected to the sky. The cylinder was spinning slowly.

On the balcony of a luxurious palace, there was a woman in white dress with a platinum crown on her head. She was wearing a pair of long white gloves and staring at the black cylinder.

"The prophet was right... The disaster is here..." The woman did not open her mouth but her voice echoed in the air.

A knight in silver armor appeared behind the woman—he kneeled and spoke in a loud voice, "Your Highness! The guards are ready, please head to the sanctuary now!"

"Don’t worry. I want to see how this disaster is going to destroy our home. I’ll memorize everything I see!" the woman responded in a deep tone. "My father and my mother spend all day dealing with the political wars but no one expected that the disaster will start at my country, the South Cross Empire..."

*BOOM*

Something vibrated in the red sky and the clouds were moving much faster than before.

*CHI*

A green star pierced through the clouds and flew to the city.

*CHI CHI CHI*

Two purple stars and one red star also pierced through the clouds, dropping to the city.

*Cry*

It sounded like an infant was crying.

Giants with the heads of infants slowly walked out of the cylinder, they shouted and cried. Greed and excitement filled up their eyes. It seemed like they knew that the Soul River Realm had a much better environment than the Nightmare Realm.

Some of the giants kneeled and grabbed some white mud, sniffing at the muddy fragrance.

"A realm with a clean environment! Go! My children!" A strange voice echoed in the sky; this neutral voice was neither male nor female.

"Princess! We must leave!" The knight in silver armor sounded anxious.

The princess glanced at the red sky, hesitated for a second, and turned around, walking to the exit of the balcony.

She suddenly stopped before leaving the balcony. "Where are my brother and my father?"

"The King and the Prince are preparing for the war," the knight responded right away.

The princess remained silent for a while.

"I’ll avenge them!" She left the balcony quickly and started running. Tears ran down her cheeks as she disappeared into the hallway.

****************************

The dark monsters with bats in their hands were destroying the buildings in the center of the silver city. Dust would splash in the air every time they hit a building.

The well-decorated silver buildings fell as the residents of the city screamed while running.

The black bats rotated in the sky, they picked up the residents and bit them into pieces, dropping the remains to the ground.

Only two areas of the city were still trying to fight back, the rest of the city had already fallen. The residents were slaughtered like pigs.

Angele was the red star, he fell as he watched the beautiful city being destroyed by the monsters.

The warriors wearing crystal armor did not fear the death, they charged forward in the explosions and tried to stop the bats or dragon knights; however, none of them could handle the attacks from the infant giants.

The knights were like toys in front of the giants. They were slapped to the walls and ground, turning into piles of blood mixed with flesh.

There were many tall buildings that looked like towers in the city; however, none of them stood a chance against the giants’ strikes.

The city had a diameter of more than three thousand kilometers and looked like a large silver pancake from the sky. However, the pancake was being devoured by the invaders that looked like ants.

Angele held the metal bar tightly and changed the direction slightly.

A strange pressure that came from nowhere was making him anxious. Also, he noticed that his power level was reduced to a rank 2 wizard.

The city was getting larger and larger in Angele’s sight as he moved closer.

’The pressure is from the realm difference I think. My body structure is not used to the rules of nature in a completely different realm. I guess that’s how the realm protects its ecosystem,’ Angele thought as he started landing. The cage was still surrounded by red flames.

The flames were getting more and more intense as the cage’s altitude reduced.

Angele checked the city that just turned into a mess, he hesitated and turned left with the cage.

The energy waves in the city were all over one thousand degrees and some of the group leaders were releasing energy waves that were over five thousand degrees. Angele told others that he was in sealed form—they would realize that he was lying if he was damaged by the energy waves.

Eye Devil would probably capture him and devour him during a party.

Bone was treating Angele well, however, he would just kill Angele and collect the bones if he found out the truth.

There was no point for Angele to approach the battlefield, he decided to go to the edge of the city.

It was a hill that was covered with green grasses and there was a lonely building on the hill.

Angele could see the fear and desperation in the mortals’ eyes through the fire. A man with a muscular body was screaming and crying as he looked at the red star. There were two boys hiding behind him.

"Run!" the man shouted at the boys like crazy.

Angele landed on the ground as he had no time to change the direction.

*BOOM*

The left side of the building was crushed and a large smoking hole with a diameter of more than 30 meters appeared on the ground. Angele’s landing almost killed the man.

The hole was filled up with flames and lava drops. It looked like a small molten pool.

*PA*

Angele stood up from the lava pool and his long robe was destroyed, the only thing left on his body was the pouch.

Angele looked confused. He was naked and the bottom half of his body was in the lava pool.

The lava was just warm water to Angele since his attributes were extremely high.

"Where am I?" Angele spoke in the universal language of the Soul River Realm. He learned the language before entering the portal. Bone and Eye Devil all learned the languages of the realms they invaded in the past. It was important that they could communicate with the locals.

Angele raised his hand and created a dark-red armor using the lava from the pool.

He stepped out of the hole and lava was dripping down his long red hair. The lava drops were smoking on the ground.

Angele looked at the man, it was just a mortal from the Soul River Realm. His skin was burnt under the high temperature and blood was coming out of his ears. It seemed like he could no longer hear anything but he was still holding a blade in hand, facing Angele.

*WOO*

Suddenly, the vibrating noise came from the sky again.

Raising his head, Angele stared at the sky—there were countless green light dots around the black smoke cylinder.

Green light dots, bloody red sky, black smoke cylinder, and a destroyed city—the place had turned into a nightmare.

"We’re the believers of the lord, we shall never give up, and we shall fight until the last minute. There’s always hope in our mind. We can open the sky with the key of destiny, even if the land is cracked, the sun is blocked..." the man was saying something in a shaky tone.

One of the boys behind the man was also saying something with a thick book in hand. It seemed like they were relying on the lord they talked about; they were approaching Angele.

Angele was not sure how he should react as he looked at the book in the boy’s hand. The title of the book was: The Bible.

Strangely, it was the first time Angele met the three, but he could feel that the three were sending refreshing energy waves into his body. It felt like he was connected to the three by some invisible energy particles.

The energy waves kept entering Angele’s body but disappeared within seconds; also, the scorpion woman’s bloodline was strengthened in his body.

Angele recalled the day he met Eye Devil for the first time. Eye Devil was scared when he was about to activate the scorpion woman’s bloodline signet and it seemed like this bloodline had a mysterious background.

The scorpion woman’s bloodline was being strengthened by the energy that was sent into his body from the three strangers.

However, the energy waves weakened as they read the sentences from the bible.

Angele ordered the chip in mind.

’Zero, analyze the energy movement.’

Blue light dots flashed in front of Angele’s eyes.

’Analysis completed, the terror mentality wave is absorbed by an unknown gene in your body, and your body is strengthened.’

Angele was a bit surprised. He checked the condition and noticed that his true form had become stronger. The height of the true form reached seven meters and the attributes of the true form increased. It only took around ten seconds for the procedure and Angele would need a year to accomplish something like this under normal circumstances.

’Wait, maybe the scorpion woman’s bloodline is the...’ Angele remembered something. ’The bloodline of the magic energy race that can strengthen themselves using strong emotions...’

Magic energy race was a general name for the races with such power. They could absorb the strong emotions and strengthen themselves at an incredibly fast rate. However, the bloodlines of the magic energy races had never become the strongest bloodlines in history and they were extinguished for some reason.

*Dang*

Angele was interrupted as a blade hit his left shoulder.

The man was blown away by the impact, hitting the wall on the side, and could barely stand up again.

"Father!" The two boys ran to the man immediately; they looked anxious.

*WOO*

It sounded like a bull was shouting and there were dragons swinging their wings.

"Mirror in the River! Ha! There is a Mirror in the River here!" An eyeball knight started shouting in the ancient language.

Angele did not look at the three, he turned around and quickly moved in the direction of the voice.

After moving for several minutes, he noticed that two eyeball dragon knights were attacking a golden carriage on the ground.

There were two warriors in heavy black armor around the carriage, they were around three meters tall and looked like berserkers. They were holding shields and axes in hands.

Every time they traded strikes with the eyeball dragon knights, they would make some loud noise and scars would be left on their armor. Blood was leaking out of the gaps in their armors, dropping to the ground.

Angele slowly flew to the scene and the red armor turned black after the lava cooled down. He noticed that one of the eyeball knights looked a bit different. He was riding a red dragon and it seemed like he was an elite eyeball dragon knight.

The ones that were fighting quickly noticed Angele’s presence.

"...Supervisor!" the elite eyeball dragon knight spoke in a polite tone and bowed to Angele slightly.

"You should go to the palace, there’s no good loot here..."
