Chapter 2055: 599 Disasters and Divine Signs_2
The two have been intertwined and at odds for many years, incidentally turning the Arcane Wilderness into an actual forbidden zone.
"Loa is Turing, Turing is Loa, names hold no significance."
"My memories have long merged with his, and upon leaving, he left all his Strength to me. Now, I can completely claim that I am a Fusion of Loa and Turing."
"But I still prefer the name Turing."
Turing blinked.
Edmond looked at him thoughtfully:
"Your chaotic air seems faint..."
"It appears that when Loa left, he took all madness from your body."
Turing nodded slightly:
"Indeed."
"Similarly, Isabelle absorbed a large amount of chaotic factors from the Multiverse with Chaos Mystery Lock and took them away from this Universe."
A strange look flashed in Edmond's eyes:
"That's not very surprising."
"She was always the type to say she doesn't care, seeming to disregard all Life, yet still has a deep attachment to this World and silently Protects everything."
"Heh..."
"Childish..."
Turing looked at him with interest:
"You know, I have inherited all of Loa's memories."
Edmond glanced at him sideways:
"What are you trying to say?"
Turing said seriously:
"I want to assure you, the trade deal we just made is still valid."
Edmond instantly turned his gaze to Matthew, who was relentlessly whipping Dania.
His expression turned playful:
"How do you think he'll choose?"
Turing laughed and said:
"I never predict."
"I only respect what has happened."
Edmond said calmly:
"Since Teacher left, I am the fact."
...
Above the giant stone mural.
The images of Calamity Grassman and the Great Wind Demon Dragon now appeared extremely disheveled and sloppy.
Under Matthew's mad and powerful attacks.
The outlines of the two Demons were almost completely dispersed, turning into unpredictable entities akin to balls of yarn.
But on the whole.
It was still Dania, incarnated as Calamity Grassman, who was being battered harder.
In part due to the strange feedback from the Great Wind Demon Dragon making Matthew feel odd.
Additionally, he was more wary of Dania.
Let's not deny.
Ursul's Reprimand is indeed a weapon quite suitable for a necromancer.
Especially in internal conflicts.
This Whip directly targets the soul, hitting the enemy's vital point.
Every time Matthew controlled the long whip to enter and exit the mural.
The energy of the Demons depicted on the painting would weaken slightly.
At the same time.
He could clearly feel Dania was becoming weaker!
If at first, Dania's soul strength seemed like a torrential downpour, now she made Matthew feel like a dwindling drizzle.
Drip, drip.
A feeling nearing depletion.
Matthew knew.
Dania separated her fire of desire; as her soul became purer, it also became less substantial.
Though her Horcrux must have been repeatedly strengthened.
But under Matthew's relentless attack.
Her soul was already on the brink of danger!
"This is the perfect opportunity created for me by Teacher; I mustn't miss it!"
Upon this realization.
Despite being somewhat exhausted.
Matthew still gritted his teeth and swung the long whip.
Snap!
Thud!
Bang!
The successive sounds resonated without pause.
But in the next second.
Matthew's eyelid suddenly twitched—
A black shadow suddenly flashed across the mural, as if something jumped out from inside!
That was...
A black cat!
Matthew's heart sank.
He had seen this black cat.
It was part of the Calamity Grassman.
The cat collar it wore was suspected to be Dania's Horcrux!
This black cat actually emerged from the mural!
This not only implies that the giant stone left by Isabelle will soon lose control over the Calamity Grassman and the Great Wind Demon Dragon.
But also means Matthew's Attack will be affected!
Sure enough.
The black cat simply stared quietly at Matthew.
Matthew felt his hair stand on end all over his body.
The next moment.
The fur on the black cat swiftly sheds.
Each strand of cat fur transforms into tiny straw men!
The straw men fall to the ground.
Instantly, they multiply into thousands of their kind!
Some of these straw men scream as they rush towards Matthew.
Others pounce towards the fairies in the distance.
And a huge straw man flies into the sky, expanding in size.
Soon.
It turns into a gigantic straw man kite.
And atop the kite.
Endless black cats appear from who knows where!
Just like that.
The black cats and straw men keep reproducing and spreading.
Matthew simply doesn't have time to stop them.
In less than half a minute.
Even at the outskirts of the Exile Twin Towers, where many fairy settlements are, the vast army of demons, made up of black cats and straw men, can be observed!
On the data panel.
...
「Warning: The Calamity Grassman (Dania) has released the Superior Legend spell "Mass Bad Luck"!
Mass Bad Luck: All living beings that contact or witness the black cats and straw men will automatically carry 1~3 layers of bad luck.
When enough bad luck accumulates.
A "disaster" may erupt in the area, leading to even more severe consequences...」
...
"Dania intends to spread 'bad luck' across the Arcane Wilderness and surrounding living habitats!"
"Once she amasses enough bad luck in her hands, it might cause significant harm to me!"
Matthew's heart skips a beat.
Bad luck can spread, accumulate, and amplify within biological clusters!
Especially in fairy settlements, which are densely populated.
Their ability to spread and magnify bad luck is terrifying!
No need for deliberate insight.
Matthew already envisions scenes before him.
In one of those scenes.
A fairy gazing into the distance suddenly falls off a branch, the poor fellow lands headfirst on a sharp rock, brain matter and blood splatter instantly—
Even at this moment, the unlucky one still blindly touches the back of his head while uncontrollably casting a curious gaze at the tide-like mass of black cats in the distance.
Bad luck takes effect!
The Great Fairy instantly meets sudden death!
Matthew's glance sweeps over.
Other scenes also reflect similar occurrences:
In the fairy village, the once exceptionally sturdy treehouses suddenly collapse dramatically;
A once gentle and quiet river turns into a flood, rushing towards places where life congregates;
A fairy sneezes, unexpectedly triggering fireball, wrapping the entire village in flames!
All such events occur.
Bad luck is swiftly spreading, rapidly accumulating, and gradually transforming into real disasters!
These disasters undoubtedly provide strength and nourishment to Dania.
Matthew can feel it.
Ever since bad luck started spreading.
Dania's soul strength has risen rather than fallen!
The murals on the boulder seem unable to suppress her any longer.
Among the haunting cries of countless black cats.
Amongst the eerie murmurs of the straw men.
The outlines of the once scattered demons start to regroup and slowly emerge from "under the surface."
"I'm back..."
"Hehehe..."
Dania's hoarse voice, full of sarcasm, rings out again:
"Isabelle couldn't take me away; that was her biggest mistake."
"Do you like the gift I sent you?"
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
A breeze brushes against Matthew's sleeve.
Suddenly, he is engulfed in roaring flames!
In that instant.
Matthew feels an endless malice accumulating on himself!
As if the will of the entire plane is targeting him!
"Is this what it feels like to be entangled by bad luck?"
Matthew gently exhales a mouthful of turbid air.
At this moment.
An air of mourning hangs over the Arcane Wilderness.
Dania's bad luck is spreading fiercely at a speed far surpassing the Plague.
Yet Matthew suddenly smiles calmly:
"Interesting."
The initial black cat stands atop the mural, staring directly at him:
"Why are you smiling?"
Matthew looks at the black cat's gem-like eyes, smiling faintly:
"Without calamity, how can there be a miracle?"
"Speaking of which, I have to thank you for creating such a conducive environment for me..."
"After all, without the backdrop of disaster, how could one highlight the shock of 'divine miracles'!"
In the next second.
Matthew brightly smiles as he spreads his arms, as if embracing the entire plane!
「Legendary Ability: Miracle」!
