Chapter 421: There Are Still Thirty Draws Left!
Chord City
After Blank Fire was eliminated, Mr. Xia didn’t immediately leave. Instead, he appeared at the highest point of Chord City… in front of the Trance Time Tower.
Mr. Xia stood in the sky, completely ignoring the barrier of the Trance Time Tower, silently gazing at the scenery ahead. The Heavy Pupil slowly turned.
The Trance Time Tower, a colossal structure, constantly shifts from black, purple, and gray to transparent with the passage of time. It stands in the core area of Chord City, and for thousands of years since its establishment, only sorcerers have been qualified to live here.
Sorcerers study various types of new spells and rituals here and can access all kinds of resources theoretically available in Chord City. Without a doubt, the Trance Time Tower is the holiest place in the hearts of sorcerers worldwide.
Even Alan once wondered if he could visit the Trance Time Tower. Back then, he didn’t dare to dream of becoming a master of magic, let alone imagine reaching such a level in just a few months.
Master Joel is the highest-ranking magic master in the Trance Time Tower and is respectfully called “The Child of Magic.” He almost became the new generation of The Cursed String Music. However, Joel recommended the current Cursed String Music to the masters of Time of Chord and voluntarily withdrew from the selection process.
He appears as an ordinary young man, with deep eyes, a scholarly aura, black glasses, and a flowing purple robe.
A Meeting with Master Joel
A loyal young apprentice entered and bowed. “Teacher, someone wants to see you.”
“I know,” Joel responded calmly.
In the next moment, he disappeared and reappeared in his study, where Mr. Xia was already waiting.
Dressed in black as always, Mr. Xia exuded an irresistible dominance just by standing there.
“In the Blank Fire incident, did you get involved?” Mr. Xia asked bluntly. “Other matters don’t concern me, but the Outer God may destroy everything in Noah. I won’t have a place to stand… Anyone who aligns with the Outer God must be eradicated. Tell me, have you assisted in spreading Blank Fire?”
Joel—his real name being Ji—shook his head and said calmly, “No, I still know what’s important… But after this incident, you’ve truly clashed with Steel Throne. Challenging the Rainbow is indeed a bold decision.”
Mr. Xia narrowed his eyes. “However, you have been monitoring the Babel Tower.”
“That’s for another reason,” Ji replied with a complex expression, shaking his head slightly as if unwilling to say more.
Mr. Xia scrutinized him for a moment before nodding. “Okay, I believe you.”
With that, he vanished.
Ji sighed, murmuring to himself, “I actually don’t know if I’ve really made the right bet… Are you the true Savior?”
“Mr. Bai Yan.”
Tatsumi City
Bai Yan stood in Tatsumi City, witnessing the strange events caused by Maryse.
“Such a grand occasion, spreading happiness across thousands of miles. If someone were to become a god, would they announce it to the whole world?”
Standing inside Sylve’s house, he shook his head and muttered to himself, “Let me see how powerful you really are now.”
Power Possession.
Psychic Dancer.
In the next moment, Bai Yan felt an immense, indescribable mental force—like an endless tide of rivers and seas. With a mere thought, he could observe the actions of nearly everyone in Tatsumi City.
Complete Area Scan.
Even the Leaf King, the leader of the Air Alliance, was not exempt. Bai Yan monitored him entirely without his awareness. Only those at the Apocalypse level were beyond his reach. Moreover, with just a thought, Bai Yan could instantly manipulate the Leaf King’s mind.
“But he must have an alarm-triggering ritual or a powerful protective relic… If I casually attack the Leaf King, it would mean war with the Imperial Guards.”
Bai Yan smiled slightly, shaking his head before shifting his focus elsewhere.
His thoughts flooded with countless actions. As the Psychic Dancer, Bai Yan could now process far more information than before. Previously, he could control a few hundred people, maybe a thousand. Now, he could influence nearly ten thousand people at once!
“This ability is always fascinating.”
Though no new psychic subcategories emerged, all abilities had been significantly strengthened. Bai Yan found this to be enough.
The Fairy Tale Witch
As for Maryse, she had chosen her path.
“Fairy Tale Witch.”
While Bai Yan could manually load other powers for her to use, only the “Fairy Tale Witch” had the potential for further growth. This path granted her magical abilities inspired by fairy tales—filled with imagination and childlike wonder.
The most notable ability was “Summon Magic.” Maryse could now summon various fantastical creatures from fairy tales, such as:
Pumpkin Carriage
Snowman
Bigfoot
Tin Man
Headless Knight
Even her weakest summoned creatures were at the Crown level. Her two most powerful summons were:
Fire-Breathing Dragon – Capable of changing its size at will and unleashing powerful flames.
Sea Monster – Able to control water but only summonable in aquatic environments.
Once summoned, these creatures could rival even the strongest Apocalypse-level beings.
“The most intriguing part is their near-immortality… Could it be because, in fairy tales, deaths are rare for both humans and creatures?” Bai Yan pondered. It seemed linked to the rules of the fairy tale world.
In addition to Summon Magic, Maryse had also mastered numerous Fairy Tale Spells. Unlike curses, Fairy Tale Spells formed an entirely unique and extraordinary power system.
Fairy tale magic is divided into three types, “blessing,” “curse,” and “magic bullet.” And nowadays, Maryse mainly masters the powers of “blessing” and “magic bullet.”
“Magic bullet… hmm…” Bai Yan always felt a sense of déjà vu.Fairy tale magic is much more outrageous compared to spells, completely devoid of reason.
Its minimum threshold is very low, the destructive power is almost a joke, but the maximum limit is surprisingly high, capable of doing all sorts of incredible things. It can only be described as extremely “miraculous.”
The stronger the user’s will and the more intense their emotions, the more powerful the effect of fairy tale magic.As long as the emotions are strong, even if the enemy is much stronger, they will absolutely be counterattacked with deadly force!On the contrary, if the user is weak-willed and only wishes to escape, fairy tale magic will almost completely lose its effectiveness.The difference between the minimum and maximum limits is more than a hundred times.
Bai Yan muttered to himself, “It’s definitely a must-have magic for retaliating against the exploding types. Honestly, it’s very suitable for an emotional player like Maryse.”
“Hmm, should we change her battle catchphrases to ‘Friendship is magic’ or ‘In the name of the moon, I’ll punish you’?”
However, because the power is too unstable, fairy tale magic is also known as chaotic power, which is intimidating.If one day Maryse completely succumbs to darkness and becomes the incarnation of XX witch, it is not impossible for her to use this terrifying magic to destroy existing civilization.
Although the curses she possesses are few and can only be cast under extreme negative emotions, once these curses are unleashed, they become horrifyingly exaggerated!Becoming corrupted makes her much stronger, more than just three times.
“So, wouldn’t I become a QB by then?” Bai Yan continued to complain to himself.
In short, Maryse is now truly the top two under the Savior, completely stronger than Mu Ling.
Next, there are thirty draws left.In addition to the summoning points, Bai Yan has also strengthened the members of Babel Tower with a large number of “Awakening Souls” and “the Spirit of Revelation” that he obtained.
“There are still thirty draws…”Bai Yan took a deep breath and made a decision to draw all of the cards from the “Different Dimensions” deck.He made a sincere wish deep in his heart, hoping to directly elevate Alan to the level of Apocalypse.
Of course, if luck was on his side, it would also allow Mu Ling, who was at the late-stage T0, to reach “Apocalypse”…He would be extremely thrilled.
Whether it was the Scarlet Moon or Maryse, both of them had the strength to fight against middle-ranked Apocalypse even when they were in the lower-ranked Apocalypse…Once Mu Ling reached Apocalypse, she would become even more powerful!
Summon!
“So, it’s like this…” he murmured to himself.The result of the summon appeared quickly. However, the luck of this thirty consecutive draws was not considered good, but in a certain sense, it was not bad either.At least, it gave Bai Yan hope of seeing Mu Ling reach Apocalypse.
Thirty draws produced a total of three new skins and one new spectacle.The drop rate wasn’t very high, but out of the three new skins, two belonged to Mu Ling and one to Alan.Very compatible.
“Ten Thousand Swords·Nightsaber””In this possibility, Mu Ling wears an elegant white robe with an Eastern martial arts style. She is graceful and exceptionally beautiful, leaving people in awe. She is surrounded by multiple sword blades and possesses the unique power to control swords and Relics. Her power is extraordinary, but it also consumes a tremendous amount of energy. The ‘Ten Thousand Swords’ ability module will replace the ‘Nightsaber’ ability module.”
“Phoenix Body·Nightsaber””In this possibility, Mu Ling is a young girl from the depths of the wilderness, possessing the power of a phoenix. She wears feathers as her garment and has an almost indestructible physical body. She also possesses the ability to burn everything in flames of rage. The ‘Phoenix God Body’ ability module will replace the ‘Nightsaber’ ability module.”
Both of Mu Ling’s new skins belong to the Eastern theme.The first one is dressed like a fairy, wearing an ethereal white outfit. She is as beautiful as a celestial being, and her charm increases to even 11 after loading.The second one is wearing clothes made of feathers that look like fire, but it seems like they are not wearing anything at all.
Mu Ling in the “Ten Thousand Swords” possibility will have a much stronger burst ability in the short term, becoming a powerful “long-distance cannon.” However, if she fully exhausts her sword energy, she will run out of strength after shooting two or three times at most.Even so, each strike is very powerful, surpassing all other possibilities.
The Phoenix Body is a completely different path of physical cultivation.In this possibility, Mu Ling will have a Phoenix Body that is almost immortal, with infinite regeneration, and she can release Phoenix Fire that can cover a large area.
“Good.”Bai Yan nodded slightly. Both of these possibilities are quite practical.If you encounter a defensive tank enemy, you can use the “Ten Thousand Swords” possibility. But if you encounter a fast but weak enemy, you can use the Phoenix Body possibility with a wide-range attack…
Because of the various possibilities, Mu Ling’s battle plan has become more comprehensive, and there is almost no one who can defeat her.Bai Yan could even claim:No one can defeat her below the Apocalypse.
The last drawn new skin belonged to Alan.Bai Yan noticed that this time the newly drawn Mysterious Magic skin was a stronger skin than the previous ones.
“Sanction Knight·Mysterious Magic””Oh, the prince with the name of the White Knight, who sanctions all evil in the imperial city, adored by thousands and admired by Alan. In this world, he always defends the imperial city with his white armor, is the dream lover of countless noblewomen, and possesses powerful strength that matches the title of a hero.”
Oh, well.It’s actually a possibility for close combat!
The white knight, Sanction Knight, Bai Yan discovered upon closer inspection, is actually a “magic knight” who excels at using “knight magic” to enhance both themselves and their enemies in battle.Seven parts magic, three parts physical skills.This is Alan’s first possibility for close combat, and it could very well be the last.
“I never thought you would be the type to go around attacking people…”
Finally, there’s the newly obtained wonder.World Line Change·Minoan Labyrinth, released after collecting ten fragments.
Minoan Labyrinth has been an old friend of the “Different Dimensions” pool. After several months, Bai Yan, who has been continuously recreating it, finally drew it.
In reality, “Minoan Labyrinth” is a dungeon where various monsters continuously spawn.It supports the “Savior” in sending different members of Babel Tower into the labyrinth for trials. After defeating monsters, the trial participants will increase their strength and obtain practical magical items or even Relics.Even if trial participants are defeated in the maze, they won’t die; they will just be sent back outside.
“Oh, by the way… Always drawing skins and never drawing characters, isn’t that a bit unfair to Merete Chambers…”Just at that moment, Bai Yan suddenly remembered a promise he made to someone, and his face turned red.He felt ashamed for a whole half second.
