Chapter 416: 143. Life and Death Duel_8

Translator: 549690339

Morster remained silent for half a second, and the space around him began to fluctuate.

A lava ocean appeared on his back out of nowhere, the fire-red glow illuminating a large area, and the searing waves swept in, raising the surrounding temperature by several degrees.

A giant iron hammer wrapped in flames swirled out of the lava ocean, striking a “clang” on Morster’s back.

Morster’s silver metal body instantaneously heated up during this resounding hit, turning into a glowing red-hot branding iron.

Morster gripped his metal magic wand with both hands, aiming the gun-like tip at Noland Lee.

The heat from his body flowed into the magic wand, and the blazing red fire, like a stream, poured into the empty body of the wand. A bright, blinding flame gushed out of the tip. The silver-white wand turned to a red-hot, then an even hotter golden-white color.

Morster roared:

“Fine, it’s settled! If I can’t kill you with this attack, our grudge ends here! But you will die! You will definitely die!!!”

“Bang!!!”

The tiny magic bullet, dragging a three-meter diameter massive tail flame, rushed towards Noland Lee.

In less than one-tenth of a second, this magic bullet, filled with anger and magical power, arrived at Noland Lee’s body.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

Morster widened his eyes.

Under his gaze, the grand magic projectile passed through Noland Lee’s body and landed on the remote teleportation portal anchor fragment, creating a huge explosion that engulfed half of the ceremony site.

As they looked at Noland Lee, who had been pierced by the magic projectile, he still stood unharmed in the same spot. In his skeleton form, not a single bone was injured.

“No… it’s impossible… how could this happen…”

Morster shook his head in disbelief. His metal wand softened from the high temperature and retracted into the palm of his hand. His entire silver-white metal shell aged at the same time, covered in dents and cracks, dull and without shine.

This was the price of forcibly using high-level magic.

A normal three-circled wizard must endure weakness, strength decay, and mental listlessness before using high-level magic authorized by a professor.

“I told you, you can’t kill me.”

Noland Lee somehow appeared beside Morster:

“Can we talk now? I have a job for you.”

Morster was frightened and his body trembled violently. He looked incredulously at Noland Lee, who had suddenly appeared beside him:

“You… you… why nothing happened to you… how did you appear here… ”

Noland Lee quietly looked at him.

Morster recoiled, forcing his neck to turn and say:

“Fine, I’ll let go of our grudge. But our duel hasn’t ended. My magic metal armor still works; you can’t defeat me. If you want me to help you, you have to prove that you can defeat me first.”

Noland Lee shook his head slightly:

“Eh, stubborn.”

Just as Morster was about to say something, he saw the skeleton in front of him expand rapidly, turning into a skeleton giant over seven meters tall in half a second.

Morster opened his mouth in shock, showing a noticeable dent in his mask.

A large hand stretched towards him, pinching his arm and giving a slight twist.

“Kaka…”

The magic metal body that showed no fear against death lightning and alchemy bullets was effortlessly bent by the skeleton hand.

Now, if Noland Lee exerted a little more force, Morster’s metal arm would be completely destroyed.

“You lost, Morster.”

Noland Lee looked down at his opponent in the form of the giant skeleton.

He released the metal arm, looking at the stunned Morster, looking up at himself and said:

“I have at least three ways to kill you instantly. I was not joking with you. For the sake of your character and Adelaide, and Murphy, I will not kill you. Have you calmed down now?”

Morster swallowed, looking at his own arm.

He hadn’t figured out the situation just now, and didn’t have time to adjust the reflective coating on his magic metal armor.

If the other party wanted to kill him, all they had to do was wrap his head with the bony hand and crush it with force. Everything he had accumulated in the past would vanish in an instant.

The brute strength within the other party was incredibly powerful, enough to shatter his magic metal body with 50% kinetic resistance with a single punch.

Morster straightened his twisted arm. The metal body made him feel no pain, and adjusting his limbs by himself would not cause any discomfort.

Morster took a deep breath and said in a low voice:

“You win. Our grievances are written off, but I can’t guarantee that Intelligence Department 1 will let you go. According to Ulnas Circle’s Life and Death Duel Regulations, the victor can dispose of the loser as they wish. Since you don’t want to kill me, I must do something for you in return for your mercy. Tell me, what do you want me to do?”

“That’s more like it.”

Noland Lee reverted to his normal-sized skeleton form.

He glanced at the stock of Energy Points in his mind, feeling the pain of their depletion.

He had learned about the relationship between Adelaide Carter and Morster through Denise Green just now.

Strictly speaking, Morster wasn’t a bad person. He was indeed the Acting Commander of Division Intelligence Unit Two, which was true. However, the crimes committed by that division in the past had nothing to do with him but the previous commander.

After Morster took office, he had indeed improved the division as he had said and prevented further disasters from happening.

Considering both Morster’s background at the Academy and his actions, Noland Lee had no reason to kill him.

The soul communication with Denise Green did not consume Noland Lee’s Energy Points.

What consumed Energy Points were the two spells that turned the tide of the battle.

The first spell was “sense tampering” that helped him dodge the high-level magic projectile.

Noland Lee upgraded it to level 40 on the spot.

A Level 40 “sense tampering” corresponded to the magical power of a four-circled Mental Wizard, and only Wizards of the Fourth Circle and above could resist it.

Wizards below the fourth circle wouldn’t even realize their senses were being tampered with. With a 20% degree effectiveness, “sense tampering” could affect them for up to 4 seconds. That was enough for Noland Lee to approach Morster.

The “Noland Lee” who was penetrated by the magic projectile was just a perceptual illusion left in Morster’s field of vision after Noland Lee had tampered with his senses.

As for the skill that turned him into a giant skeleton to bend the metal arm, it was actually “Power Burst”.

Noland Lee upgraded it to Level 50 in one breath.

With the upgrade effect and additional rewards, after activating this skill, his “Strength” attribute reached as high as 72 points!

His “Tenacity” attribute temporarily rose to half of his “Strength” attribute, reaching 36 points. This was the effect of the additional rewards.

Noland Lee didn’t know how much destructive power this level of “Strength” attribute could bring.

But from the feeling of bending the metal arm just now, Noland Lee thought he could easily tear the opponent apart.

One could say that crushing Morster’s head with 72 points of “Strength” would be as simple as snapping a wooden toothpick with only two points of “Strength”.

The terror of Muscle Tyrant Martial Arts was as such.
