Chapter 892: The Three Great Warriors II
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Marta, is that you?”
The white halo shattered in an instant and an even taller figure gradually appeared. He was also wearing a Golden Ray Armor. With a wave of his hand, the violent storm subsided. However, his aura seemed much weaker than Marta.”
“Huh? Larkin, why do you have very little energy left?”
Marta was slightly astonished. While the energy of the Golden Ray Warriors was not infinite, their storage capacity was incredibly large. Added with their transmutation ability, their energy levels should still be plentiful even after millions of years of imprisonment.
However, Larkin had very little energy left, probably only the most essential amount.
While a Golden Ray Warrior could not die from energy exhaustion, they would fall into hibernation. Upon hibernation, the Golden Ray Armor would descend into dormant mode as well. No one knew if the Golden Ray Armor could be awoken afterward. After all, none of the Golden Ray Armors had fallen into a state of dormancy.
Right now, two out of the three great warriors had recouped.
“Marta, it really is you. Back when the three of us were imprisoned, you definitely had the biggest potential…”
Larkin’s tone was nonchalant but a murderous aura seemed to be emitting from his body. He appeared more intimidating compared to Marta.
“Yes, when the three of us were imprisoned, the other Golden Ray Warriors were killed. Only three of us who achieved 100% compatibility with the Golden Ray Armor survived because they couldn’t destroy the Golden Ray Armor. Why don’t you recover some energy first, only then we’ll rescue Myron.”
The three great warriors were only lacking Myron.
Larkin, on the other hand, glanced at Merlin. “This person’s aura is a little strange. He doesn’t have the blood of the Vestigial Tribe, yet he’s rejected by the entire world. Marta, who is he?”
This Golden Ray Warrior also discovered Merlin’s uniqueness with a single glance.
“Oh? This person is called Merlin. He’s indeed unique. He has also been rejected by the Void Zone, so we can consider him an ‘ally’ of the Vestigial Tribe,” Marta replied with a trace of self-deprecating humor.
“Ally? Haha, back when the Vestigial Tribe conquered the whole Void Zone, who was our ally? I want to see for myself, why has this person been rejected by the Void Zone? Perhaps, through him, we can find the Void Zone’s weakness.”
Larkin smirked. Killing was in his blood. In the past, he had led the Vestigial Tribe and killed countless powerful civilizations. The amount of blood on his hands was beyond imagination.
Therefore, he did not demonstrate any restrain towards Merlin and attacked immediately. In fact, he attacked to kill.
“Hum.”
Merlin sensed the change in gravitational force around him and laughed. Larkin was wielding his gravitational field. However, this gravitational field no longer had any effect on Merlin.
Nevertheless, Merlin did not intend to back away. He believed that Marta wanted to see Merlin’s power too. Unless he instilled a healthy dose of respect in them today, their future relationship would be strained.
Moreover, Merlin was curious to find out whether his Illusory World could affect the Golden Ray Warriors.
“The gravitational field cannot bind me.”
Merlin grinned and gently extended a hand. The Illusory World swiftly enclosed Larkin. The Mind Power inside the Illusory World began to interact with the tangible world and unleashed a huge binding force.
“Bind!”
Inside Merlin’s Illusory World, he was almost omnipotent. He even held the Illusory World’s most unique power of natural order. Yet, this power of natural order had not been turned into reality, so it could not be used to attack an opponent. Thus, Merlin could only mobilize Mind Power’s ability to interact with the tangible world and channel it to suppress the power of natural order wielded by the ultimate existences.
For the ordinary ultimate existences, including the fourth-grade Emperor-level existences, the suppression effects of Merlin’s Illusory World were unmistakable and very effective. However, these Golden Ray Warriors consisted of pure power and did not have any power of natural order. Hence, the effect on them was almost negligible.
Merlin could only rely on the Illusory World’s ability to interact with the tangible world to fight against them, which was very difficult.
“Rumble”.
Larkin’s destructive power was utterly terrifying. After all, he was a Golden Ray Warrior and also one of the three most powerful Golden Ray Warriors. He was suppressed and imprisoned by the ancient Thirty-six Emperors until today; even they could not kill him.
Merlin’s Illusory World shook violently. Larkin’s attack seemed even more destructive than the origin of natural order.
“Damn it!”
Merlin’s face turned grim. His Illusory World was extensive and would not be affected with a bit of loss, plus destruction would give birth to new life, but he still had to maintain the balance between destruction and new life. Therefore, large-scale destruction like what Larkin was wreaking certainly would not be good for the Illusory World.
Merlin had no other way to stop Larkin now except to mobilize the most abundant Mind Power force. He wanted to experiment if it could influence these ‘invincible’ Golden Ray Warriors.
“Hallucinate!”
Instantly, the entire Illusory World transformed. Every power seemed to vanish without a trace as invisible Mind Power pervaded every opening and entered the Golden Ray Armor.
Although the Golden Ray Armor contained a mysterious energy that could obstruct the infiltration of Mind Power, Merlin’s Mind Power was simply too powerful and pervasive. Even if the armor could withstand 10% of Mind Power, the remaining 90% still managed to infiltrate the Golden Ray Armor.
“What power is this?”
Larkin felt the invisible force as well, which made him very uncomfortable. As a Golden Ray Warrior, he already fused with the Golden Ray Armor, so he had never felt such an ‘uncomfortable’ sensation. It felt as if he would be separated from the Golden Ray Armor.
“Mind Control!”
Merlin gritted his teeth and decided to activate all of the Mind Power to infiltrate the Golden Ray Armor and control Larkin’s mind.
“Damn, what power is this? I can’t control myself…”
Larkin could still speak but he sensed that he could not control the rest of his body.
Meanwhile, Merlin was also under tremendous strain. Even though his Mind Power was able to infiltrate the Golden Ray Armor, there was not much left. The Golden Ray Armor was too powerful and managed to stop most of the Mind Power from entering.
Furthermore, when Merlin tried to use the small amount of Mind Power to exert Mind Control, he discovered that it was impossible for him to exercise complete control over a Golden Ray Warrior. The Golden Ray Warriors were different from the rest of the Vestigial Tribe because they had fused thoroughly with the Golden Ray Armor, including their consciousness.
As a matter of fact, they were similar to the Matrix. Although their ‘intellect’ still remained, it was hard to describe them as living creatures. The only reason Merlin’s Mind Power could render some effect was simply because the Golden Ray Armors used to be an ordinary Vestigial Creatures and not a pure ‘program’ or ‘intelligence’ like the Matrix.
Therefore, they were still somewhat susceptible to Merlin’s Hallucinating spells and Mind Control. Still, he could not progress further to control or entrap them.
Perhaps, in the future when Merlin’s Illusory World grew bigger and comparable to the Void Zone, he would be able to use Mind Power to control these Golden Ray Warriors. For now, it was impossible.
“Larkin, come back!”
Suddenly, Marta roared. With a huge force, he grabbed Larkin, which indirectly disrupted Merlin’s Mind Control attempt. The entire Illusory World trembled violently.
Merlin’s Mind Power greatly diminished but it seemed like he had the upper hand throughout. Larkin, on the other hand, appeared to be horrified. Merlin caused him to feel as if he could not control the Golden Ray Armor. That was a very scary feeling. Additionally, even the ancient Thirty-six Emperors could not separate a Golden Ray Warrior from the Golden Ray Armor.
Hence, this feeling of losing control over the Golden Ray Armor gave Larkin an immense jolt.
“Mind Power! I know this is a very weak but mysterious ability. Back in the days, there were a few foreign tribe civilizations who tried using this mysterious ability to control us. It was very effective at the beginning but once they encountered the powerful Black Star Warriors, the ability became ineffective. Not to mention a Golden Ray Warrior. You, on the other hand, are very powerful. You’ve developed a Mind Power field that resembles a fort. We’re constantly encased within your Mind Power field, right?”
Marta had been observing Merlin the whole time. In fact, he also wanted Larkin to test Merlin’s capabilities. Otherwise, he would have stopped Larkin right from the start.
Marta’s observation had been very comprehensive. He even noticed that Merlin had a fort-like Mind Power field.
“Mind Power field? This name is quite appropriate. That’s right, it’s quite similar to the Mind Power field you mentioned. The power I just used is Mind Power!”
Merlin did not hide that his power was not a Mind Power field but in fact a far more formidable world. This was the reason the Void Zone did not hesitate to reject Merlin.
“Turns out you have such a mysterious ability… Back then, although Mind Power was powerful, it was not too intimidating since it could not affect our Black Star Warriors. However, your Mind Power field is strong enough to affect the Golden Ray Warriors. Now I understand why you would be rejected by the entire Void Zone. It’s because you are a threat to the Void Zone’s natural order,” Marta said thoughtfully.
Merlin’s had a flash of inspiration. His whole purpose of following Marta and these Golden Ray Warriors was to understand more about the Void Zone’s natural order. This was a good opportunity.
“So, what is the Void Zone’s natural order actually? The Vestigial Tribe is a civilization born within the Void Zone, why would you be rejected by the Void Zone?”
Merlin stared straight at Marta and asked. This was the question he desired to know the most.
Perhaps by knowing why the Vestigial Tribe was rejected, Merlin could gain some insight regarding the mechanism of the Latitude Cosmos, which would subsequently help transform his Illusory World from illusion into reality.
