At that time, their Heaven Enlightening Mercenary Group was on steroids and recklessly charged towards the Tulan Mountain Range.
Now, it looked a bit foolish …
Just looking at that huge head made Delson feel powerless. He hadn't expected it.
To be honest, he had been very excited when he arrived at the 2nd Floor. He even felt that he would be able to quickly complete the mission entrusted to him by the descendants of the Odin Kingdom's royal family and help the Heaven Enlightening Mercenary Group get that sky-high commission.
But …
He hadn't expected that this would be the result. Baiers not only didn't slumber, but instead turned into a huge monster.
"High … High Mage Merlin, do you still not have a way?" Delson couldn't help looking at the young mage next to him. He had treated the young mage as his backbone on the way here, and the young mage had never disappointed him. But the situation this time was clearly very special. He didn't have any hope when asking this question, it was just a last-ditch struggle.
In his eyes, this was a situation of certain death. Even if he wasn't killed by this "Baiers", if he couldn't get the crown, he would be forever trapped in the 2nd Floor. What awaited him was death, and he might even become an Undead lifeform.
"There is no good way, we can only rely on luck …"
Lin Yun 'voice echoed in Delson's ears and he bitterly smiled. Sure enough, it was just as he had guessed. That almost omnipotent young mage was powerless at this moment and even said some depressing words.
'Hold on …'
'Those aren't depressing words!'
Delson's eyes shone and he was extremely nervous. He unblinkingly looked at Lin Yun and said with a shaky voice, "High Mage Merlin, what do you mean by those words …"
"Haha …"
Lin Yun only chuckled and turned his head, not saying anything else.
Among everyone present, he was the only one who knew that the situation wasn't as grim as he had imagined. Naturally, this would depend on luck. Even he wasn't sure if he would succeed or not.
Compared to the others, Solan wasn't as desperate. Instead, a trace of joy could be seen in his pitch-black eyes. He turned to look at everyone, and when he saw Lin Yun, his face couldn't help paling. He clenched his teeth and a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Then …
Contrary to everyone's expectations, Solan turned into a shadow and rushed towards the huge head in the air. In everyone's eyes, this was simply courting death!
After all, that huge skeleton was the body of Heaven Mage Baiers. Even if it didn't have the power of the Heaven Rank, it wouldn't be too far off.
Let alone a 5th Rank Archmage like Solan, even Star Sage Jouyi, who was known as the strongest Archmage, would be in danger if he rashly rushed over.
'Crazy, he's definitely crazy …'
Apart from this, everyone simply couldn't guess why Solan would rush towards that head. In their eyes, Solan must have been desperate to the point of a mental breakdown, that's why he would recklessly rush over.
But …
Contrary to everyone's expectations, in a short few seconds, Solan was already relying on Levitation to gradually approach that huge skull. Those two blazing phosphorus fires just looked at Solan in a daze, not moving.
'This … This isn't scientific!'
Everyone simply couldn't believe their eyes. No one knew better than them how powerful that skeleton's attack power was. It must be known that when it first appeared, its destructive power was astonishing. Close to ten thousand skeleton warriors violently swayed as they fell into that bottomless crevice ….
But now, it wasn't attacking Solan!
Then, the skeleton once again made an unimaginable move. It gently lifted Solan's body and placed him in front of the two phosphorescent lights, staring at him.
To be honest, Solan wasn't as calm as he looked on the outside. He was tense all the time. When the skeleton's palm lifted him up, he was really scared to the point of breaking out in cold sweat, but fortunately, there wasn't any danger. The two phosphorus fires flickered in front of him, and he could clearly feel the cold aura coming from them.
At this time, his back was already drenched in cold sweat. Solan forced himself to remain calm as he looked at the huge head and said in a hoarse voice, "I've already fulfilled my promise and came here. Shouldn't you give me what I promised …"
After saying that, Solan waited with an apprehensive expression.
Just as he finished speaking, that skeleton seemed to understand and softly nodded. The two fiercely throbbing phosphorus fires attentively looked at Solan.
Solan's eyes shone when he saw the skeleton's actions, and he went wild with joy.
This was actually an inheritance …
It was the inheritance he had obtained in the month and a half he had disappeared from the hovering palace. Advancing to the 5th Rank of the Archmage realm was only an insignificant part of the inheritance.
When he reached the 2nd Floor and saw Baiers' body, he would be able to obtain the complete inheritance and inherit all of Heaven Mage Baiers' power.
At that time, he would be at the Heaven Rank.
Let alone the Council of Seven, even Hören and Joy would have to look up to him.
As for the insignificant Mafa Merlin, he could easily crush him with one finger!
'No … I can't kill him so easily, I have to let him taste all the torture in the world before dying.'
"Good, quickly give me the inheritance!"
At this time, Solan couldn't wait to obtain power. Due to excessive excitement, his body was trembling, and his face was completely distorted as he let out a roar.
Ever since he met Mafa Merlin, he had been swallowing his anger and living in fear. The humiliation he had suffered was still vivid in his mind.
He believed that only formidable power could give him the confidence to sweep away all enemies. He was waiting to be reborn.
But …
At this moment, he felt that something was wrong …
The skeleton's hand that was dragging him seemed to be gradually shrinking, to the point where all the bones in his body were about to fall apart.
The madness in Solan's eyes had long since disappeared without a trace, replaced by panic. He was tightly gripped by that big hand, and his whole body issued cracking sounds.
At this time, he was bursting with the power of a 5th Rank Archmage, but it was useless. Let alone escaping, he couldn't even make a sound.
"I … I … I don't want … the inheritance! Let me go … "After exhausting all his strength, Solan let out a weak voice.
That huge head expressionlessly faced Solan, and its two phosphorescent lights flickered as if it didn't hear Solan's words. It mechanically moved its arms and threw Solan into one of the eye sockets.
"Ah! You lied to me, you actually lied to me! Didn't you say you would give me the power of the Heaven Rank … "Solan sank into madness as he hysterically roared. But he only managed to say a few words before his body fell into the skeleton's eye socket. In a flash, that phosphorescent fire swallowed Solan.
Dead …
Solan died very thoroughly, not even ashes were left behind by the Phosphorus Fire. However, the Phosphorus Fire that burned Solan to death suddenly emitted a trace of red energy. That red energy quickly expanded and dyed the Phosphorus Fire red in an instant. Then, the other Phosphorus Fire also turned red.
For a moment, a terrifying fluctuation spread in all directions. The upper half of the skeleton's body that was exposed from the crack was also trembling violently. The dusky sky above was filled with dark clouds, and the sound of rolling thunder rumbled. The entire Spectral Realm seemed to be trembling under this terrifying fluctuation. Countless Spectral Creatures, whether they were asleep or awake, low-level or high-level, fled without a care for anything when they sensed that fluctuation …
The skeleton's power seemed to be recovering, and the terrifying pressure it emitted was almost tangible, causing everyone present to feel as if they couldn't breathe.
When that skeleton appeared, everyone could faintly feel that the skeleton's power was at the peak of the Archmage realm, infinitely close to the Heaven Rank. And ever since that phosphorous fire devoured Solan, its aura had sharply increased.
Everyone present was alarmed and in despair. They could see that the skeleton was undergoing a transformation, and once the transformation was over, it would have the power of the Heaven Rank.
They very much wanted to run, but under that tangible pressure, their legs didn't listen to them. Even moving was very difficult, let alone running … Moreover, where could they run to? Without that crown, they would be trapped here for the rest of their lives.
"Roar!"
The skeleton let out a deafening roar. In a short few seconds, half of its body was dyed red, and its power had increased to a terrifying level. Although it wasn't at the Heaven Rank yet, it could easily crush a Peak 9th Rank Archmage!
As long as it was given a bit more time, it would be able to reach the Heaven Rank, and its body would no longer be shackled by that power.
As that roar echoed, everyone could clearly feel that the skeleton was becoming more and more human-like. Before, the skeleton's movements had been mechanical, as if it had no consciousness. But now, it looked as if it had a soul.
At this moment, everyone was ashen and filled with despair. In the 8th Floor, they had heard the Heaven Rank Three-Eyed Secret Wolf mention that once Baiers' body and soul fused, he would reach the Heaven Rank.
A skeleton with the power of a Peak Archmage could already make them despair, let alone a Heaven Rank powerhouse.
Although they didn't understand the inside story behind the skeleton's transformation, they could faintly guess that it was related to the devoured Solan Monchi. But they had no way of knowing what had happened to Solan Monchi.
Suddenly …
A destructive aura was emitted from the skeleton's body. That was the aura of a Heaven Rank powerhouse. A small part of the skeleton's exposed body changed from white to fiery red, as if it had been cleansed by blood and emitted a rich aura of life.
