Chapter 204: The Power of Gods
"Are you trying to provoke me…"
The God of Wisdom squinted his eyes, "You still have a long way to go!"
With that, the God of Wisdom waved his magic wand repeatedly, casting various ice spells towards Karoso.
Karoso finally understood that, even as a god, one cannot break the rules in the realm of the Card God!
On the surface, the God of Wisdom seemed not to be using any cards, but in reality, he had been using them all along. His techniques were just too quick and subtle for Karoso to see.
Poke…
The God of Wisdom suddenly stopped in its tracks, Karoso’s figure appeared above it, and the sword swung down towards it.
"Even if I only use her power, it’s enough to deal with you."
The God of Wisdom planted its magic wand into the ground, and a blast of icy wind erupted from its body.
Karoso quickly switched to a shield, but the purpose of this spell was not to kill the enemy, but to repel them!
The shield blocked the attack, but couldn’t withstand the force. Karoso was thrown back by the collision of two forces.
Karoso remained calm in the air, just a mere ice storm, Neymar’s cards, I know them too well…
Bang, bang…
At that moment, two Ice Elements exploded, turning into tiny ice blocks.
Karoso looked down and his face changed.
Suddenly, the ice arrows that were shot earlier formed a magical pattern, and the explosion of two Ice Elements seemed to have activated this magic formation.
Darn it, I didn’t notice it in the smoke just now!
Buzz!
A cold air enveloped Karoso’s whole body.
The God of Wisdom waved his hand, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…
Plop, plop, plop…
Karoso was hit by three ice arrows, on his right shoulder, left leg, and left side ribs.
Bang…
He fell heavily inside the magic circle.
For a moment, coldness spread throughout Karoso’s body.
[Master Karoso lost?]
[Gosh, is this God of Wisdom’s fighting style so detailed?]
[Previously, was he setting up everything, then pretending to be provoked by Master Karoso?]
[Indeed, it is the God of Wisdom.]
[Stop cursing, think about what to do!]
[Darn it, I want to throw my hero in to help Master Karoso fight.]
"I don’t know how you found out about my weakness, whether it was that eternal guy or Surtr, but did they overestimate you?" God of Wisdom stood still with his magic wand, "Can a child like you erase tens of thousands of years of wisdom?"
"You try to make me angry, wanting me to use more magic. But little do you know that I am also plotting against you. While you use your tricks, I have already found a way to defeat you. Even if you don’t use them, I have hundreds of ways to kill you."
"Fighting against gods, little bug, your courage is commendable. You are just a tiny bug in their eyes."
"Unfortunately, that’s all there is to it."
"Ahem…" Karoso stood up unsteadily, staring firmly at the God of Wisdom in front of him. "If you were sure of killing me directly, you wouldn’t waste your words."
"No, I just haven’t had an interesting chat with a little fellow in a long time," the God of Wisdom spoke with a mix of truth and deception. Referring to Himself as God of Wisdom might not be entirely accurate; deceiver of gods would be more fitting.
"Do you know how creatures used to grow in the past? You would use Magic Potion to enhance, evolve, absorbing the power of materials, studying the essence of magical combat skills."
"In that era, if you were not careful, you could turn into monsters, controlled by the powers within your body."
"The emergence of Card God changed everything. After becoming a god, he made cultivation simpler. With the introduction of cards between you and spells, the likelihood of going insane decreased significantly."
"However, this also made you lose a lot of primitive knowledge and power. Not focusing on self-improvement and simply simplifying things is wrong."
"Those of you who haven’t tried the Magic Potion can’t use magic directly, so you have to rely on cards, some might even rely on them too much."
"I can easily set up a magic circle, but how many wizards nowadays can do that?"
[What’s going on here?]
[I really don’t know, it’s not written in the story.]
[Planner, copying homework!]
[Is what He said true or false?]
[He has no reason to lie to Master Karoso, to put it simply, Master Karoso won’t remember the conversation with Him after going out anyway.]
[It’s okay, as long as we remember.]
[Darn, is this the time to talk about this? Master Karoso, He’s definitely stalling, this fighting thing is too sneaky and dirty!]
"You telling me all this, are you waiting for the magic array to take effect?" Karoso hugged his shoulders, walked step by step towards the direction of the God of Wisdom. "Neymar’s card, almost depleted, right?"
"Even if you can easily set up many magic arrays, you are using Neymar’s body. She has not consumed your so-called Magic Potion, her body is not that of a monster’s."
"Lacking materials, even you cannot set up too complex magic arrays."
"Go to hell!"
Karoso charged at the God of Wisdom once again, with a determined look, not at all shaken by the words of the God of Wisdom just now.
Herman may be driven to mental collapse by what is said, but not Karoso!
Buzz!
A red aura spread over Karoso, with red patterns appearing on his body.
"The Favored One’s power… The Favored One will always be The Favored One, whereas I am, God itself!" The God of Wisdom inserted the magic wand into the ground, blue patterns covering his body, brighter and more prominent than Karoso’s patterns. "Get back!"
A fist made of ice appeared from behind and smashed towards Karoso’s back.
It seemed like Karoso’s back had eyes. He waved his shield and blocked the ice fist, then used the force to quickly move forward.
He decisively pulled out a gun in mid-air and shot bullets at the God of Wisdom.
"Hmph."
The God of Wisdom waved his hand and a ice shield formed in front of Karoso.
Bang!
The bullets were deflected.
Karoso slashed his sword again, cutting through the ice shield.
Pssht…
The God of Wisdom seemed to be waiting for this moment, a dagger appeared in his hand out of nowhere and stabbed Karoso in the stomach.
Buzz!
A card burst into flames, flames erupted from Karoso’s sword, sweeping towards the God of Wisdom.
Karoso’s hand did not stop, shouting angrily, "Get out of my sister’s body!"
Swish!
The burning sword sliced towards the God of Wisdom’s neck, but he simply took a step back, the sword passing just one centimeter from his neck.
The God of Wisdom saw through all of Karoso’s fighting skills!
Purple light shone from Karoso’s shield as he smashed it towards the God of Wisdom.
[Name: Shield Strike]
[Type: Magic]
[Star Level: 4 (5-1)]
[Quality Level: Purple Epic]
[Occupational Restriction: Warrior]
[Introduction: Use magic to create armor and attack with a shield as a weapon, the damage and armor strength are related]
Boom!
The God of Wisdom couldn’t retreat this time. Arctic Armor appeared on Him again, and this time, it directly sent Him flying out.
He flew over ten meters and landed there.
Karoso was breathing heavily, his sword and shield in his hands were starting to blur, showing that his magical power was nearly depleted.
Currently, Karoso has a stab wound on his stomach and three ice arrow injuries.
A little bit of fresh blood flowed from the wounds.
Looking at the path Karoso took attacking, blood flowed all over, creating a tragic yet beautiful scene.
"You’re good, but this is all you can do," sighed the God of Wisdom. "Don’t worry, I will take care of her body."
"I said… Get out of her body…" Karoso, losing too much blood, started to lose his vision.
I’m not strong enough, I’m still not strong enough…
If this continues, I will lose Neymar.
If Neymar is gone, what will she do?
[Can’t win]
[Oh no, Master Karoso’s moves are all predicted and countered.]
[It reminds me of Ye Xiu defeating Du Ming.]
[What should we do? Any ideas?]
[We can’t help in this situation…]
[Master Karoso, try releasing Dreamland Karoso. The God of Wisdom froze him, must be scared!]
[Yes, if He wasn’t afraid, why freeze someone in a dream who has no impact?]
Karoso slowly raised the gun, aiming at the ice sculpture.
Bang, bang, bang…
Each shot fired bullets towards Dreamland Karoso’s ice sculpture.
"Do you want to struggle?" The God of Wisdom’s gaze sharpened, then relaxed. "What good does it do to let him out?"
With a graceful wave of his hand, the God of Wisdom made the solid ice of Dreamland Karoso disappear without a trace.
Just as Dreamland Karoso was starting to regain consciousness, he saw three bullets flying towards him.
He quickly stepped back, sweeping his long sword, deflecting the three bullets.
"What’s going on?" Dreamland Karoso shook his head.
"I released you," the God of Wisdom looked compassionate. "Do you know that you are just a poor soul created from the Great Prophecy?"
"What do you mean?" Dreamland Karoso frowned.
He looked at Karoso with a deep sense of shock.
Another me, how did I end up like this…
I couldn’t move my hands, he could, and he’s stronger than me…
Dreamland Karoso looked around the room, wondering why it had suddenly become so much larger. President『』still looked the same as before, unreliable…
"Ha, everything you’ve experienced was just a dream of his," the God of Wisdom calmly stated. "The whole world is a dream, created according to his destiny."
"As long as you die in the dream, he can escape. Otherwise, he’ll be trapped in this dream forever."
"If you kill him, you will replace him and become the only real Karoso."
Dreamland Karoso’s brain was not working properly.
"You’re saying my existence is just a dream?" Dreamland Karoso widened his eyes. "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"My memories are very real – my father, my brother, Saaya, Ailina – everything I’ve experienced is stored in my brain. You can’t fool me!"
[Dreamland Karoso, please don’t believe it!]
[Master Karoso, please explain quickly!]
"He was telling the truth, I was lying about the parallel universe… Or maybe, this is really a parallel universe, I am not sure. To me, I entered Neymar’s dream. But your future is deduced based on my fate. The difference is, my fate has already changed." Karoso said, "If I hadn’t had an opportunity, I might have ended up like you."
"The reason I lied to you is because I didn’t know how to explain it to you."
"I need information, after all, this is the Great Prophecy. I want to know everything in advance, so I can prevent it when I return to reality."
"Also, I want to bring Neymar out of this dream."
"Am I a person in Neymar’s dream?" Dreamland Karoso’s eyes widened.
The God of Wisdom waved his hand, and the scene in the dark room changed, with several people standing above the sky.
Dreamland Karoso looked down, only Morning Star City was bright, while everywhere else was shrouded in black fog.
"Only things related to Neymar will become lively, other places are completely silent… This is the world in the dream." The God of Wisdom sneered, "You need to wake up, you are nothing but a dreamer without even vital signs!"
"Do you know why he, only at a lower level, can fight with me? Because he is real, and you are fake!"
"How can a nonexistent being hurt the real me?"
"President 『』 was injured in the battle?" Dreamland Karoso still couldn’t believe all this.
"She has a low understanding of power levels." The God of Wisdom smirked, "She is just a person, and I… am a god!"
"Then why don’t you control us to kill him?" Dreamland Karoso pointed to Karoso.
"He is not worthy of me using that level of power." The God of Wisdom said disdainfully.
"Is what He said true?" Dreamland Karoso looked at Karoso, "If I kill you, will I become you?"
"This one is fake, the others are real." Karoso said.
"Do you believe someone who initially deceived you, killed someone advantageous to them, or do you believe in a god? Just a group of pitiful creatures, I have no need to deceive you." The God of Wisdom squinted, "He wanted to kill you just now. If I hadn’t released the ice restriction in time, you would have been killed by him."
[Oh no, this old witch is so good at making up stories!]
[If I didn’t see the whole process, I would have really believed it!]
[Dreamland Karoso won’t actually believe it, will he?]
[No way!]
[Who on earth let Master Karoso rescue this guy? If we fight, there will be trouble!]
Dreamland Karoso slowly pointed the sword in his hand towards Karoso.
Taking a deep breath, Karoso whispered, "I want to survive, I want to save… Neymar!"
Buzz!
A powerful magic rose within his body.
Now, Karoso is in real trouble!
Karoso was too tired to think about what his dream self would do.
He only knew that he was really going to die!
The God of Wisdom raised an eyebrow, using The Power of Emotions to enhance? Interesting humans.
Suddenly, Dreamland Karoso charged towards Karoso with a long knife in hand, coming down from above.
Clang!
Karoso took a hit and knelt down on the ground.
Dreamland Karoso lowered his head and whispered in a barely audible voice, "I leave the rest to you…"
Bang!
Dreamland Karoso swept his leg, kicking Karoso directly out, flying towards the direction of God of Wisdom!
