Just as Wa Yi was about to lose his life …
"Wait!" Accompanied by a cry of surprise, a figure flew towards the arena.
However, before he could even come into contact with the dome of the arena, he was suppressed by the pressure from the sky and was unable to move.
However, this person was not from Angor's side. It was … Gray Merchant.
Before this, Gray Merchant would not care about Wa Yi's life. In fact, he would prefer Wa Yi to be killed by them. After all, the red lens meant that Wa Yi was a target of Hidden Mirror Man.
But now, Gray Merchant did not want to see Wa Yi get hurt.
Wa Yi was from the Noah Clan, and Black Earl's clone was right there. Killing Wa Yi would only bring about endless trouble. Besides, Wa Yi's identity aside, Gray Merchant already knew from the judge that Hidden Mirror Man would probably go back on his word. Therefore, Gray Merchant did not want to target Wa Yi and the Noah Clan.
Besides, Wizard Elmi had already promised to find a way to release Wa Yi's memories. It was already inappropriate for an apprentice to fight for a seat in the underground sewer. If Wa Yi was seriously injured or even killed, Gray Merchant would not be able to face Elmi again.
Originally, Hui Shang thought that the Demonic Elephant knew this and could control its impulses, but he did not expect the Demonic Elephant to be so decisive in killing after its strength soared. It was as if it had become a different person.
Gray Merchant did not want Wa Yi to get hurt or killed by Golem. Because of this, even though he could sense the displeasure on the evil woman's face, he still moved.
He had to warn Golem that he could not let him kill Wa Yi.
However, Gray Merchant did not expect that the black-robed judge would punish him before he even entered the arena. The terrifying aura suppressed him so much that he could not even stand up.
Gray Merchant could only watch as Golem released a scarlet Death Ray that pierced through Wa Yi's body.
A one-hit kill!
"It's over." Gray Merchant looked at the frozen black and white image on the stage and felt his vision turning gray.
Thud —
Wa Yi collapsed on the ground and seemed to have lost his breath. The demonic elephant, on the other hand, stood in place and kept laughing. But as he laughed, he began to cry inexplicably. Tears gushed out like a fountain, as if he had lost control of his tear glands. Under this expression of laughing and crying, the demonic elephant's eyes gradually became dazed and at a loss.
The Eyes of Ancient Profundity's deathly light had been completely depleted in the previous attack.
At this time, the Demonic Elephant had fallen from the realm of "omnipotence" and returned to its "self."
Perhaps from an outsider's point of view, the demonic elephant's situation wasn't that bad, but the demonic elephant could clearly feel the emptiness in his heart. He wasn't back to being himself, but had fallen from the clouds into the mud.
The Devil Elephant found it hard to accept the huge difference in energy levels.
And this was the "Energy Level Trap" that Dorcas had previously mocked. The magic elephant had been tricked by the evil woman.
Becoming stronger in a short period of time in exchange for self-doubt, denial, the obliteration of potential, and depression that would last for an unknown amount of time.
The golem regained its senses slightly. It saw the shocked gray merchant outside, and also saw the calm Dark Earl on the opposite side …
Only now did he realize that he had killed Noah's descendants.
When it had killed Wade, the Demonic Elephant had been both excited and fearful at the same time. The trembling had been stimulating, an uncontrollable pleasure. But now, the trembling was no longer there, but there was no excitement or stimulation. All that was left was fear and … regret.
The Demonic Elephant was now like a lost child. Standing on the arena, it didn't know what to do next.
It remembered that the evil woman wanted it to snatch the spoils of war and get the Skin of Seamus. But this descendant of Noah didn't have the Skin of Seamus.
So what should it do? Wait for the next match with Khael? Get the Skin of Seamus from Khael?
But it had already used the trump card that the evil woman had given it. How could it defeat Khael?
The Demonic Elephant felt like it was shrouded in emotions. Its mind was a mess. It could only think of a single problem. The slightest deviation would cause it to fall into a state of confusion.
Because of this, the Demonic Elephant didn't even know what it should do next.
While the Demonic Elephant was at a loss, it didn't notice that the Sage in the air hadn't called for the match to stop. This meant that the match wasn't over yet.
The Demonic Elephant couldn't see the situation clearly due to its demonic state. However, the spectators could clearly see the changes in the arena.
Wa Yi, who had been hit by the Eyes of Antiquity's Death Ray, should have been dead. But what was surprising was that he didn't seem to be dead.
His fingers twitched. Then, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he raised his head slightly.
At this moment, Wa Yi's face was no longer recognizable. It was a mess of flesh and blood. One could even faintly see pieces of white bone.
From Wa Yi's disfigured face, it was clear that he wasn't in a good state.
But compared to the demonic Demonic Elephant, Wa Yi was still rational.
Wa Yi didn't move. He couldn't move. All he could do was look at the Demonic Elephant, who was crying and laughing at the same time.
Then, he mobilized what little magic power he had left and aimed it at the Demonic Elephant.
The Demonic Elephant was completely immersed in its own world. It didn't feel the energy fluctuations around it at all.
It wasn't until a huge impact of energy, wrapped in a strong wind, hit the Demonic Elephant from behind that it came back to its senses.
However, even when the Demonic Elephant came back to its senses, it still didn't react when it turned its head and saw a palm made of stone. Or rather … its reaction was sluggish.
The palm hit the Demonic Elephant's back hard. The huge force sent the Demonic Elephant flying.
When the Demonic Elephant was in the air, it suddenly realized that it had been hit by Wa Yi. But, wasn't Wa Yi already dead?
At this moment, the Demonic Elephant was still thinking about why Wa Yi wasn't dead. It didn't think about how it should deal with the situation now.
This was also the backlash of using energy that didn't belong to it. Its thoughts were stretched and dulled. It lost its sense of crisis and its ability to deal with crises was reduced to the level of an ordinary person.
This state wouldn't last long. With the Demonic Elephant's strong physique, it would probably recover quickly. But, the depletion of potential and the psychological trauma couldn't be recovered in a short period of time.
It could be said that Dorcas was right. This time, the evil woman really tricked the Demonic Elephant.
Most importantly, the evil woman hadn't gotten what she wanted yet.
In the end, the golem was slapped out of the arena in its sluggish state of mind. It was only after Gray Merchant rescued it from the Void monster's greenish eyes that it realized what had happened. "I … lost?" It asked in hindsight.
Looking at the Demonic Elephant's dazed expression, the rage that had surged to the pit of the gray merchant's stomach couldn't be vented.
He only pulled the Demonic Elephant back to their side of the arena.
After the gray merchant returned, he glared fiercely at the evil woman. The evil woman subconsciously wanted to say something, but when she saw the gray merchant's gloomy face, she shut her mouth.
The evil woman had seen the gray merchant's gloomy and cold expression many times in the past, so she wasn't afraid. That was because the gray merchant's personality had always been like this.
However, ever since a part of his memory was taken away by the Hidden Mirror Person, the gray merchant's personality had undergone a 360-degree change. He was more inclined to the refined and gentle person from a long time ago. This kind of ugly expression almost never appeared on the gray merchant's face.
Now, the gray merchant directly showed such an expression to the evil woman, which was enough to show the anger in his heart.
That was because the evil woman had lied to him.
The evil woman didn't even tell him that she would give the Demonic Elephant the Eyes of Antiquity!
This was an ownerless organ that could be used as a trump card by Bloodline Adepts!
Obviously, the evil woman could tell that the spatial apprentice opposite her didn't have much to do with the Noah Clan. Judging from the others' attitudes and various details, the Demonic Elephant seemed to have some connection with Red Sword Dorcas. He probably didn't have any powerful background and was probably just a wandering apprentice. Perhaps even the Seamus' Hide was lent to him by Dorcas.
After confirming that the opponent might have no background, the evil woman's attitude changed. Not only did she want to get the Seamus' Hide, she also wanted to use the Demonic Elephant to kill the opponent!
In the evil woman's eyes, an apprentice without a background was dead. She could get the spoils of war and save herself from future troubles.
However, the evil woman didn't expect that this duel would be fought by Wai instead of Kael.
After the duel began, the evil woman couldn't send a voice transmission to the Demonic Elephant, which led to the Demonic Elephant using the Eyes of Antiquity and trapping himself.
The result angered the gray merchant greatly, but the evil woman didn't care. However, the evil woman did not care. From her point of view, everything was just bad luck.
What the evil woman didn't know was that if she really did kill Kael …
It was no different from pissing off the Dark Earl. That was because the person standing behind Kael was also a bigshot, the "Mirage Walker" Aesos.
Aesop's attitude aside, if things really went according to the evil woman's plan, Angor would avenge Kael himself.
The reason was simple. Kael was the target of his mission, so he couldn't let him die. Kael was the owner of the key, so he couldn't let him die. The Seamus' Hide on Kael also belonged to Angor. Anyone who took it would die.
In other words, the evil woman wasn't just unlucky this time. She actually had a good fortune.
However, the evil woman didn't appreciate it. Her mind was filled with one thought: Noah's descendant isn't dead anyway, and I even lost an ownerless organ. I'm the one who got the worst of it.
The disparity between people and the difference in their bottom lines was vividly reflected in the evil woman.
Apart from the evil woman, the others all had different thoughts. But they all had one question in common.
How did Noah's descendant survive the Eye of Ancient Mystery?
…
Angor and Dorcas were also curious about the same thing.
"So the reason why my Lord didn't panic was because he gave Wa Yi a trump card … … Tsk tsk tsk, Wa Yi used to look alright, but now he's in such a miserable state. His entire body is covered in rotten flesh, and he'll probably have to live with an ugly face for the rest of his life." Dorcas carried Wa Yi off the stage and placed him on the ground.
Dorcas joked as he healed Vael.
However, after a while, Dorcas realized that his treatment didn't work at all.
Vael's body was shriveling up at a speed visible to the naked eye. His eyes were losing their luster as if they would lose all their luster at any moment.
Dorcas was still laughing at Vael, but now he couldn't bring himself to laugh anymore.
He quickly turned around and looked at the Dark Earl.
"He, he, what's going on?" Dorcas's expression was one of fear and anxiety, and he even stuttered as he spoke.
The Dark Earl ignored Dorcas and looked down at Vael, who still had one last thought left in him.
"Since you've already used it, does that mean you've made up your mind?"
Black Earl's words had no cause or effect, so everyone was confused and didn't understand what he was talking about. But Wa Yi seemed to understand the meaning behind Earl Black's words. After a moment of silence, he softly said, "My Lord, did Sister Ella die because she reached this step?"
"If you have time to worry about Ella, why don't you pay more attention to yourself? You don't have much time left to make a choice. "
Angor was a little confused. Who was this "Ella" that Vael mentioned? Why would Vay care about Ella and not her at this time?
Before he could figure out what was going on, Dorcas mouthed something to him.
Ella was Vael's older sister.
And she was Vael's biological sister.
What did Wa Yi mean by saying that Ella was dead at this time? Did he think Ella's death was the same as Angor's? She died in a duel? It couldn't be that coincidental, could it?
The Dark Earl continued, "If it wasn't for its protection, you wouldn't have survived the Eye of Arcana. Now, it's your turn to make a choice."
Vael's eyes became wet. He didn't look at the Dark Earl anymore. Instead, he looked at Dorcas.
Vael's mouth moved slightly as if he wanted to say something.
Dorcas thought Vael had some "last words" to say, so he quickly moved closer.
However, when Dorcas moved his ear closer, Wai Yi spat at him fiercely.
While Dorcas was still in shock, Vael shouted with all his might, "So it's my bad luck to run into you! I've been hiding for so many years, and now I'm forced to go to the ruin to find you! "
"I'm done for! I'm going to end up like Sister Ella! I can't even say a word! I'm going to be turned into a walking dead for no reason! Damn it! Damn it! "
After shouting and cursing, Dorcas was completely dumbfounded.
Only then did Wa Yi turn his head to look at the Black Earl, as if admitting defeat: "Come, I don't have any other choice. So what if I'm a puppet? At least my physical body is still alive. "
"Dorcas, I won't be myself from now on. Are you happy now?"
The wetness in Vael's eyes finally turned into tears and slowly slid down his cheeks.
Vael closed his eyes and tried to look as if he was going to die.
However, his eyelids were already gone, and he couldn't close them. He could only watch as his master fell off the stone slab and slowly flew toward him.
