Wilbur opened his left hand and gave it a try, thinking murderous thoughts in his head. Sure enough, a cloud of black aura appeared in his palm the next second. "Ah, I get it now." Wilbur got an idea, and he increased his thoughts of murder and bloodshed by tenfold. A black miasma enveloped the halberd, and Wilbur stared down at the black spider coldly as he waved the halberd. "To hell with you!" This time, the woman atop the spider trembled with fear as if she had run into a powerful enemy. The halberd fell from mid-air, giving the woman no chance to react as it struck her body and split her clean into two as the spider's body was bisected as well. The spider's legs were blasted to bits and scattered on the ground. Tracy walked over with a smile. "You seemed to have learned something new, Mister Penn." "Yep. I think I've found a special energy." Wilbur had not expected the power of destruction to stem from evil thoughts. However, this was hardly the first time he had bee
"Ant-men?" "Sh*t, they've found us! Retreat, Mister Tracy!" Wilbur shouted Tracy's name as the two men backed into the fog at top speed. Countless arrows filled the air once more, and Tracy's defense was destroyed three times within a single minute with Wilbur's defense being destroyed twice." "These imbeciles! Did you call them ant-men, Mister Penn? Do you know about them?" "I sure do," Wilbur said truthfully. "I came across them in the basement of Greensource Corp when I was in Cametra. They're an extremely powerful species. One ant-man nearly killed me. There are probably thousands here, and I don't think we have any other choice." "What do you mean by that, Mister Penn?" Wilbur knew that there were too many ant-men for merely two men to go up against, and they would not be able to win with skill. Wilbur turned around with a solemn expression on his face. "We have no other choice, Mister Tracy. I'm going to count to three, and we'll flee together. This is the only way. O
"I haven't forgotten, Tracy. But you can't be so selfish." "That's up to me, Wilbur Penn! You can do whatever you want, and I'll do whatever I want. Let's part ways here!" Tracy turned and walked into the fog, heading to another end of the barrier. Wilbur scrambled to chase after him. Sure enough, Tracy was casting another light spell to break the barrier. A ray of sword energy swung over, and Tracy was once again forced to dodge Wilbur's attack. He turned to look at Wilbur. "You don't have to do this to me, Wilbur. Look at this barrier." Wilbur turned and saw the ripples of white light all across the barrier. The energy of both Tracy and Wilbur's attacks was absorbed by the barrier at once, and neither of the men was hurt in the slightest. Wilbur finally heaved a sigh of relief then. Tracy said, "That senior knew this day would come, and he made this barrier to stop the ant-men. How are we ever going to match up against them, though?" "You've disappointed me nevertheless,
Just as Dragon's Safehaven expired, the two Wilburs charged out in different directions. The real Wilbur swung his sword toward the two ant-men in front of him, sending them flying. He turned and saw his clone fade into nothing. The two remaining ant-men were positively livid at being fooled and charged over at once. Wilbur did not duck this time, meeting them head-on and killing both the ant-men in a single move. Just then, the two ant-men that had been sent flying had finally caught up to Wilbur once more. Wilbur hurled out a thunder spear that pierced through one ant-man. It exploded, blasting the ant-man to shreds just as Wilbur's thunder cleaver had shaved the remaining ant-man's head clean off his shoulders. All four ant-men had been killed by Wilbur in less than half a minute, and Wilbur had also promptly changed his mind on this species. He wandered into the fog once more, battling with the ant-men round after round. Several rounds later, Wilbur realized that the ant-me
The thought made Tracy smile. "He sure is the chosen one. I guess I underestimated him." At the same time, an ant-man holding a long spear with a cape on his back had walked up to the edge of the fog under two ant-men's ld. There were already a few ant-men waiting there. Through the connection in their feelers, the ant general was able to know what was going on in the fog. The two guards by his side were about to enter the fog, but the ant general put up a hand as if ordering them to back up. Following that, the general walked into the fog holding his spear. The ant general seemed unaffected by the fog. It was not long before he had found the four ant-men's locations, as well as where Wilbur was. However, the general did not charge in Wilbur's direction. Instead, he found the nearest ant-man to stand by and pretend as if he was under control as well. Wilbur reached them soon enough. Just as he was about to go in for the kill, the ant general raised his sword and stabbed at Wi
Wilbur activated his shield at once. After the onslaught of arrows had finally lessened, the air was filled with a series of rushed footsteps as the second wave of ant-men charged into the fog. These ant-men were holding swords and shields this time, and their feelers seemed to have lost the ability to communicate with each other. Wilbur had charged the fog with a lightning ball once more, but the ant-men this time were oblivious to the current. They barged around the fog trying to look for Wilbur and Tracy, and Wilbur was able to kill almost a hundred of them. At the same time, several pillars of light wandered among the sea of ant-men. Many of the ant-men were killed as well, and barely three minutes later the second wave of any men had been wiped out with a few of them fleeing from the fog for their lives. The fleeing ant-men were quickly killed by the ant-men guarding the edge of the fog, and a third wave of ant-men, this time ant knights on horses, rushed into the fog. Wil
Wilbur smirked. "Less talking, more fighting. You can kneel right now if you're scared." "What? You want me to kneel? You bastard, you don't even know what true power looks like!" "I'm going to make you kneel to me instead!" The ant-man darted in front of Wilbur, bringing the hammer down once more. Yet just then, Wilbur instinctively raised the historical halberd in his grasp. This time, Wilbur was sent flying once more. "I admit you've indeed angered me now!" Just then, the dragon's head on Wilbur's back lit up once more. An icy chill spread through Wilbur's body as he began to radiate black miasma. The miasma turned into a set of armor soon enough, and Wilbur's pupils turned jet black as he began to channel the power of destruction into the halberd and dyed it black. "What? The Power of Destruction from the middle dimension? You've mastered the dimensional laws of the middle dimensions?" "Cut the bullshit! Bring it on!" Wilbur charged at the ant-man, waving the hist
The old man said, "Senior Fremont made an agreement with the merfolk emperor Ramos who ruled the entire merfolk population. That agreement would come into effect automatically the second a human being made it to the merfolk world." "An agreement? What kind of agreement?" "There are nine checkpoints. If we pass all of them, Ramos will give the eighth dragon cauldron back to us and we'll be able to return to the human realm safely." "Well, what if we don't pass?" The old man turned to look at Wilbur meaningfully. "If we don't pass, we'll have to stay here forever." Wilbur looked around him and realized the view of the underwater city was quite beautiful. "The place looks great. How dangerous could it be?" "Wilbur, you must remember that unknown dangers lie beyond a beautiful surface. It's important to never be tempted, even if you see something beautiful." Just then, the two merfolk in front of them stopped in their tracks. They bowed to a slightly larger merfolk, who chatt
