"That book spirit is the one who was begging on the street, right?" Sabot's voice reached his ears.
Angor nodded with a smile in his eyes.
When Raven played his saxophone on the street, he was more like a beggar than a performer.
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios According to Codex Dark, in order not to be recognized or beaten up, he would definitely not use his appearance today.
"That's quite interesting." Sabo paused for a moment and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Is he really related to the Elder of Books as the audience guessed?"
The Elder of Books was one of the three ancestor souls of Brute Cavern. He was known as "the most knowledgeable wizard in the southern wizardry region".
In a way, the Elder of Books was the most famous figure in Brute Cavern. He was even more popular than Mister Rein.
Angor considered. "Sailum told me that he met the Elder of Books before. But I don't know how they are related."
Angor was telling the truth. Sailum did meet the Elder of Books before. The reason why Sailum insisted on becoming a Sage was because the Elder of Books told him that only a Sage could awaken his spirit. However, Angor did not ask about the relationship between them.
Maybe the Elder of Books valued Sailum, or maybe the Elder of Books was just giving advice to a junior. After all, the Elder of Books was very elusive. Angor knew that the Elder of Books was always in Cloud Library, but he could not find him.
Sabot's eyes flickered. "I'm looking forward to his performance then."
Sabot was indeed looking forward to the match, mainly because Angor was concerned about Sailum's relationship with the Elder of Books. However, the more he watched the match, the more he frowned.
The reason for his frown was not because of anything else, but purely because he could not bear to watch anymore.
Both Sailum and Xili seemed to be Dark Manipulators. A battle between Dark Manipulators depended on who was more familiar with each other.
Whether it was combat experience, comprehensive cantrips, reaction speed, or even physical strength … Sailum was no match for Xili.
Moreover, Dark Codex was still murmuring to Sailum through telepathy, instructing him on what to do.
Even so, he could not stop Xili's attacks.
Five minutes later, Sailum's face was swollen, and his body was covered in blood. As for Xili, there was no change in her at all. She walked in the darkness of the inner line. The atmosphere around her was gloomy, but she kept muttering and praying for hope.
At this moment, in the audience.
Everyone in the Fragrant Pavilion was on the move because of Sailum's match. Even the sleeping Shiliew was forced to sleep in the audience by Shan.
Sitting on Gank's shoulder, Shan covered her eyes with her hands, not daring to look at Sailum. Still, she could only ask about Angor's condition from time to time.
Therefore, everyone around Shan could hear Gank's voice. It was always the same sentence, "Not good … Not good … Not good …"
Lyon was anxious as well. He was very worried about Sailum who was getting beaten up.
He couldn't help but ask Nausica, "Do we really have a chance like this?"
Nausica held her pipe horizontally, took a deep puff, and slowly exhaled a cloud of smoke.
Inside the smoke, Nausica shook her head. "I don't know. I don't think we have a chance. But … Sailum isn't an impulsive person. He didn't surrender, and Raven didn't tell him to. Maybe there's still hope?"
As soon as Nausica finished her words, Sailum staggered back to his feet after being sent flying again.
At the same time, dark mist began to form around his body.
"Darkness Incarnation." Nausica whispered, "This is Sailum's strongest move. He can turn into darkness and trap his opponent in it forever."
Leon's eyes glowed when he heard that this was Sailum's strongest move. "Can it defeat Ghost Light?"
Nausica considered for a moment. "It's hard."
Darkness Incarnation was indeed a very powerful technique, but would it be as effective against Xili, who was also of the Darkness Attribute as it was in the past? Nausica doubted it.
When the dark mist began to spread to the surroundings, Sailum's figure began to disappear as if he was hiding in the darkness. Or maybe he was devoured by the darkness.
This was Darkness Incarnation. While in the darkness, Sailum's body was almost illusory and could hardly be harmed.
The audience was also looking forward to Sailum's Darkness Incarnation. After all, Sailum was in such a miserable state. They would be happy to see a chance to turn things around.
However, Darkness Incarnation had not fully taken shape yet. His opponent, Xili, who was mumbling "hope", suddenly exploded.
However, there was no blood or flesh. The moment Xili's body exploded, it turned into an endless stream of dark aura.
The aura was filled with corrosion, hallucination, darkness, and absolute silence.
Nausica's face turned pale. "That's Darkness Incarnation too, and …"
Xili's Darkness Incarnation was instantaneous, which meant Xili must have placed it in her spell slot. At the same time, Xili's Darkness Incarnation contained more corrosive properties than Sailum's.
If Sailum used Darkness Incarnation to fight against Xili, he would definitely lose!
Nausica's worry soon came true. Xili's Darkness Incarnation covered Sailum's body and turned into an even bigger mist that covered the entire arena.
The center of the arena was now filled with a large amount of black mist. The audience could only see the rolling black mist and the occasional miserable screams coming from inside.
After a long time, a figure walked out of the mist.
It was a person whose entire body was emitting a halo of light. Flapping the pure white wings on his back, he slowly walked out of the black fog.
No doubt, it was Dark Codex.
Dark Codex was holding a bloodied man in his arms.
Judging from the tattered clothes, the bloody man was Sailum.
His entire body was corroded by the darkness. Not a single part of his skin was unharmed. Yellowish liquid was flowing out of his body.
The dark mist behind them slowly dissipated and turned into a gloomy woman. Glowing Xili.
There were no wounds on Xili's body. She looked at Sailum's corroded body in Dark Codex's hands and spoke slowly, "You should know that I can kill him. Letting you take him away is already my limit. "
Xili did not move. She only looked at Dark Codex. Xili saw "hope" from Dark Dian's body. That was why she stopped and allowed Dark Dian to take Sailum away from the mist.
Her goal was clear. She wanted Sailum to admit defeat.
Dark Codex looked at Sailum in his arms and sighed. "It's time for you to make a choice."
To the audience, Dark Codex was trying to persuade Sailum to give up. But that was not the case.
At the judges' table, Sabot shook his head and sighed. "Why are you so stubborn? You should've listened to the book spirit and surrendered. You wouldn't have ended up like this. "
Sabot then looked at Angor. "You know Sailum well. What do you think?"
"That's where you're wrong."
I'm wrong? Sabot looked at Angor in confusion.
"Sailum was the one who suggested surrendering before the match. The book spirit was the one who told him not to, "Angor explained slowly. Therefore, Sabot was wrong when he said that Sailum should've listened to the book spirit.
As a matter of fact, after watching the match between Xili and Swan yesterday, Sailum wanted to fight seriously, but Dark Codex advised him to surrender.
However, the tables suddenly turned. Dark Codex advised Sailum to fight seriously, while Sailum wanted to surrender.
After discussing with Dark Codex, Angor suggested that "Dark Codex holds the scales and repeats the laws".
This sentence actually referred to a powerful skill. It could also be said to be a chess move.
This move had nothing to do with Sailum himself, but it was related to Dark Codex's future.
It was a dangerous move that could lead Dark Codex into an endless abyss, but it could also be a life-saving move.
Sailum had been waiting for this move ever since Dark Codex was born. However, he never touched it because he wanted to maintain the balance.
However, maintaining the balance would only waste time without making any progress.
Dark Codex really wanted to break the balance because this was the only way to break the stalemate. He was willing to take the risk even if it would lead to a bad ending.
However, Sailum was the chess player. He would not do it.
Sailum often argued with Dark Codex, but Dark Codex was the one person Sailum did not want to lose the most.
Sailum was very cruel to himself. He was willing to risk the slim chance of absorbing the Azure Bloodline, but he did not want to lose Dark Codex.
Sailum was stuck in a stalemate because of this. Dark Codex had no choice but to play along and stop mentioning it.
Yesterday, Dark Codex told Sailum about this possibility because Angor was there. He hoped Sailum would listen to him.
Dark Codex did not know what choice Sailum would make. However, surrendering meant there was no other choice. This was why Dark Codex did not want Sailum to surrender before the match began.
Dark Codex spoke to Sailum, "It's time for you to make a decision."
He was not responding to Xili. Instead, he was telling Sailum if he wanted to make this move.
…
Sailum's face was covered in yellow liquid and blood. His face could not be seen clearly. Even his eyes were dim.
When Dark Codex asked him to make a decision, Sailum opened his mouth.
Sailum opened his mouth. He wanted to reject the offer.
However, Dark Codex's eyes were bright with hope, longing, and a hint of pleading.
It was probably the first time that Dark Codex, who always disagreed with Sailum and had a sharp tongue, showed such an expression to him.
Sailum suddenly felt like he was suffocating.
At this moment, the clamor from the audience had completely disappeared. The intense pain in his body seemed to have disappeared as well. In his eyes, there was only Dark Dian's eyes.
Dark Codex's eyes were filled with longing and pleading … and if he refused, Dark Codex would probably show an angry and disappointed look.
Sailum was struggling. His thoughts were tangled together like countless threads.
He wanted to refuse, but he did not want to see Dark Codex's disappointed look. It was like a silent accusation, which made him feel like he had cruelly robbed Dark Codex of his future.
Sailum's mind was in a daze.
"Have you made your decision? Are you going to surrender or continue to seek death? " At this moment, Xili's cold voice entered Sailum's ears. He shuddered and came back to his senses.
Sailum knew it was time for him to make a choice.
"I …" Maybe it was the corrosion of the darkness that hurt his throat. Sailum's voice was hoarse. He could not say anything for a long time.
However, Dark Codex knew Sailum too well. When Sailum opened his mouth, Dark Codex knew that Sailum was going to surrender.
Sailum's eyes were filled with disappointment. He murmured, "Actually, it's a step forward or a step back. You have to try to know. Why don't you try and trust me? "
Looking at Dark Codex's depressed face, Sailum clenched his fists. He was about to surrender, but he suddenly changed his mind.
"I … won't surrender."
