Pa.s.sageway outside the underground palace's last room .

Link and the others were retreating quietly when a hoa.r.s.e and low voice rang out from the room . "No, my palace still has rats! Soldiers, go kill them all!"

It was clear that he could sense Link's presence but didn't know his specific location due to the blocked view . In the pa.s.sageway, Link took out his wand . He tossed out s.p.a.ce-Time Orbs as he retreated .

The s.p.a.ce-Time Orbs were very small, probably only the size of a sesame seed . It couldn't be seen on the ground . Even more interesting, the spell had no power waves .

This was the characteristic of spatial magic . To s.p.a.ce itself, size held no meaning .

With spatial magic, large-scale spatial strength, such as Firuman's force field, was very weak and twisted . It didn't have any destructive abilities . However, something the size of a seed contained power that could destroy the world .

Morrigan didn't understand what Link was doing . "Master Link," he whispered . "The armor of those High Elf Mummy Warriors are much fancier than the ones in the room . I bet they're powerful . Will your small-scale spell be effective?"

As he spoke, Morrigan also began setting up a trap spell on the ground . It was a Level-3 Flame Rune Trap, a trap that would be set off when someone stepped on it . He cast these spells quickly—one every two seconds .

"Don't worry . It'll be effective," Link answered with a smile . Then he turned to Felina . "When they come, get ready to attack . Nana, you too . I'll restrain them!"

"Okay . "

"Understood . "

Around half a minute later, High Elf Mummy Warriors appeared at the corner up ahead . They had a full set of defensive spell armor and all held weapons . They had a finely made magic sword in their right hand and a s.h.i.+eld s.h.i.+ning with magic in their left .

Morrigan's eyes brightened, even forgetting about the danger . "Wow, these weapons have such strong magic presence, and they're so pretty . These are from the High Elf's golden era . I bet you can sell these magic swords for 10000 gold in the Hot Spring City! The s.h.i.+elds are worth at least 5000 gold!"

"Shut up!" Felina was p.i.s.sed . She was already upset at being tricked into the tomb, and now this guy was coveting the dead's relics . She wanted to beat this grave robber to death .

Adventure King Morrigan instantly shuddered, not daring to say anymore .

At this time, the first Mummy Warrior stepped on Morrigan's Fire Trap . It exploded with a boom and filled the entire pa.s.sageway, enveloping the group of Mummy Warriors in the front .

Disregarding the power of the spell, the timing and angle were all perfect . "Nice," Link complimented .

Morrigan smiled instantly . He knew that ten of him still wouldn't be a match for Link in terms of spells, so his ego was boosted to the max at this praise . As if on steroids, he speedily cast more Flame Rune Traps on the ground .

Felina didn't like him, so she just scoffed . "Huh, these mummies are at least Level-6 and are wearing anti-magic armor . Your flames are just scratches for them!"

That was the truth . The flames spread through the pa.s.sageway and the Mummy Warriors were slowed down, but their armor flashed under the fire, wiping out the power of the fire .

Morrigan shrugged . "I don't have anything else!"

If he was here by himself, he would just explore the tomb, grab some stuff, and scram . Now, they were in the core area and faced the tomb owner's personal mummy guards, his most important task was to keep himself alive .

To do that, he obviously had to rely on Link and Felina . Now, he hid behind the two .

By then, the mummies had charged to Link's first s.p.a.ce-Time Orb .

"Get ready!" Link ordered quietly .

As he spoke, eight mummies had reached the orb . Their positions had also blocked the mummies behind them, making it the best timing for an attack .

"Restraint!"

With a soft buzz, the s.p.a.ce-Time Orb's effective range instantly magnified countless times, sealing the 12-foot-wide pa.s.sageway .

From here, they could see that the eight Mummy Warriors were shrouded by a ball of fog-like power . At closer inspection, it didn't look like fog and instead like countless tiny air waves…but it didn't look like that either . It was just an indescribable phenomenon .

In this fog-like area, the mummies didn't move at all… No, they were moving but very slowly, scooting forward one millimeter at a time .

This was the best chance to attack!

Felina and Nana charged . Felina used her dragon claws, each claw as sharp as a dagger . With one swipe, she slashed the mummies' bodies and armor into several parts . Nana's two epic swords went without saying . She felled one mummy with each move .

Strangely, the s.p.a.ce-Time Orb was only effective against the mummies . Felina and Nana weren't affected at all .

The result was that under two seconds, the eight restrained Mummy Warriors were all beheaded as if they had lined up to die .

"Retreat 30 feet!" Link called .

Felina retreated 30 feet without hesitation, not an inch more or less . Nana also followed her like a shadow .

After the eight mummies, there were many more Mummy Warriors, at least 20 . They were all around Level-6 with no fear at all . When the traffic jam disappeared, they swarmed forward again .

After 20 feet, the s.p.a.ce-Time Orb exploded again . This time, it restrained ten mummies . Once again, they blocked the pa.s.sageway . The Mummy Warriors behind them yelled but could only jump up and down impatiently .

Felina and Nana stepped forward again and started cutting off the heads .

"Retreat 25 feet . "

Boom! A s.p.a.ce-Time Orb exploded .

Chop, chop, chop . That was the sound of Felina and Nana "chopping vegetables . "

This repeated twice . The powerful Mummy Warriors had all lost their heads . They weren't dead, and the Flame of the Souls in their skulls were still glowing, but they were no longer a threat .

Nana walked up and smashed the skulls one at a time . The Flame of the Souls extinguished .

Practically 30 Level-6 Mummy Warriors were killed just like that . The entire process was so easy that Felina wasn't even breathing heavily .

"It's over?" Morrigan was dumbfounded . Had the powerful enemy been killed that easily? This wasn't right . They should've had an intense battle!

They were both Magicians, but Link's spell was completely beyond Morrigan's understanding . They were learning different types of magic .

"No, it's not . " Link shook his head . "There's still Derrac . He is different from these Mummy Warriors that only have their fighting instincts . He still has basic consciousness and is a bit more difficult . "

Felina understood Link . She knew Derrac most likely had Level-9 power, but Link only said that he was a "bit more" difficult . This meant Link already knew what to do .

"Just say what we should do now," she said .

"Don't worry . Next, only Nana and I need to go . You two wait here . "

Without waiting for Felina and Morrigan's response, Link waved at Nana and started toward the door at the end of the pa.s.sageway .

If Derrac really was a Level-9 Magician, he would definitely run as far as he could without hesitation . However, Derrac was just an undying spirit . After thousands of years, his consciousness was close to annihilation and his intelligence couldn't be much higher than the NPC in the game . There was nothing to be scared of .

There was a corner at the end of the hall; after that was the entrance to the room . Link hid in the corner and summoned a Light Mirror .

With this, Link carefully peered into the room . He saw Derrac with a scepter sitting in the tallest jeweled throne . He was unmoving, and the only difference from before was that his eyes shone .

He had no reaction to Link spying on him as if he couldn't see Link . This meant Derrac had very delayed reactions . He basically overlooked the non-threatening strengths .

Link still wasn't a.s.sured . He hid in Derrac's blind spot and tossed a s.p.a.ce-Time Orb at the door . Then he whispered to Nana, "Do you see that broken tile? Pick it up and throw it at him . "

"Understood . " Nana strode over to the door and picked up the tile . Gathering her power, a horrible gust of wind appeared . The tile hurled towards Derrac like a cannon . It had the strength of a Level-3 spell .

Boom! The tile was blocked by Derrac's magic s.h.i.+eld at the last moment and turned to powder . Then Derrac began roaring . "d.a.m.n rat! I'm going to kill you!"

Countless flashes of lightning appeared with the sound . They streaked over 230 feet from the jeweled throne . When it reached Nana's side, the magic waves in the entire room were in an uproar . The lightning was as powerful as a tsunami!

This was at least Level-8 power!

"Restraint!" Link had predicted this attack, so he activated the s.p.a.ce-Time Orb . With a buzz, the strange fog appeared again at the entrance of the room .

The lightning charged into the fog and instantly slowed down . In the frozen s.p.a.ce, he could see thousands upon thousands of lightning bolts snaking towards Nana like the sprouting roots of a tree .

Nana immediately hid beside the door .

The next moment, there was a crack . Link's s.p.a.ce-Time Orb was extinguished . The Level-8 spell was too powerful, and Link could only restrain it for less than one-hundredth of a second . If it was Felina, she might not have been able to hide in that time .

Whoos.h.!.+ The lightning brushed past Nana and struck the wall outside the room . It lasted an entire three seconds!

After the three seconds, there was a 15-foot-deep hole in the wall, the stone in the hole melting into steaming hot lava . The power was shocking .

Then Derrac's voice traveled from the room . "Rat, don't hide . I know where you are!"

Footsteps sounded, and a ball of terrifying Mana aura approached . Derrac was going to fight personally now .

"Go, Nana . Let's retreat!" Link turned and ran . As he ran, he tossed down s.p.a.ce-Time Orbs . Their Mana structure wasn't complicated, but the frequency of each rune had to be grasped precisely . Thus, Link couldn't spend more than 200 Mana points on each orb . With his Mana and methods of replenis.h.i.+ng it, he could cast 55 in succession . It should be enough to deal with Derrac .

When he ran behind Felina, Link said, "Go . Derrac's here, and we need to retreat to the first magic trap . "

As he spoke, Link felt that his first Time-s.p.a.ce Orb was disturbed . He activated it without hesitation .

Crack! The sharp crack sounded from behind them . Then there was a burst of powerful strength . Derrac's roar traveled over . "Using these small tricks against me? What a joke!"

Link's s.p.a.ce-Time Orb still only lasted one-hundredth of a second . Derrac's strength was absurd!

Felina and Morrigan's faces changed . If Derrac caught them, it would be over . Even worse, the path ahead of them had been sealed . This was a dead end!

"Link, just say what your plan is!" Felina couldn't stand it . A level-9 Magician could turn her into dust with just a look . She had no confidence .

Link was still calm . "Don't worry . He'll die today without a doubt! Follow me and don't hesitate . "

He ran towards the exit . Felina and Morrigan had no choice but to follow . After a few dozen feet, Link activated his second s.p.a.ce-Time Orb . One-hundredth of a second later, there was a crack . Once again, Derrac broke through the spatial restraint easily .

"An insect's tricks are so troublesome," Derrac roared . He was unbothered but hearing this, Link smirked .

These were an insect's tricks, but insects weren't scared of the undead .
