Chapter 623: Black Dragon Wing

Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation

A few minutes ago.

Just as the Divine Fire was about to reach Marvin's body, his bold dive into the darkness finally yielded results.

He made his way to the Crypt Monster's mouth and unhesitantly jumped in!

The Crypt Monster was still stirring from its slumber, so naturally, it wouldn't do anything to stop Marvin from seeking death like that.

It kindly accepted the delicacy.

But the next moment, the entire Underdark felt a frightening tremor.

It was the Crypt Monster's fury!

The Self-Immolation Fire followed that golden thread and burst on the Crypt Monster's body!

And when Marvin entered the Crypt Monster's mouth, he pulled out the Time Funnel!

That was one of the treasures he got from the Crimson Wasteland, and it had the ability to temporarily freeze time in different ways.

That Self-Immolation Fire could only burn the Crypt Monster's body but was unable to gain on Marvin.

Because for now, time had no meaning to Marvin.

And while under the effects of the Artifact, Marvin swiftly rushed through the strange body of the Crypt Monster.

He disregarded everything he saw and activated Diamond Shape in order to resist the Crypt Monster's corrosive acid.

Before the time ran out, he settled in a place in the Crypt Monster's body that was more or less safe for now.

That was the area next to the Crypt Monster's gallbladder.

Although he didn't know the principle behind it, the Crypt Monster's body was full of dangers. For example, that frighteningly corrosive acid was no safer to be around than the Self-Immolation Fire. Marvin's decision to enter the monster's body was rather risky.

But he had been able to get to a relatively safe area.

There seemed to be no acid in the region around the gallbladder, which made it probably one of the only safe locations in the Crypt Monster's body.

If not for that Time Funnel, Marvin definitely wouldn't have dared to take such a risk.

The Crypt Monster, that descendant of an Ancient Evil God, had terrifying defensive mechanisms and a very powerful digestive system.

Marvin's recovery indeed benefited greatly from his Ruler of the Night class and his bloodline, but if he came into contact with the monster's gastric acid, he probably wouldn't last more than a few moments before turning to ashes!

The Time Funnel was the critical trump card that let Marvin pull this off safely.

Before the Self-Immolation Fire could catch up to Marvin again and incinerate him, it would have to burn through the Crypt Monster's body.

This delay in time and its provocation of the monster would definitely create some unpredictable effects.

'Haha! Even sending a Martyr to deal with me! They were always one of the foes most hated by the players, with their ability to escape almost any confinement and then sacrifice themselves to send out one last unstoppable attack. And even if the player managed to escape or survive the attack, they'd usually get almost nothing out of the fight, since Martyrs would always rather commit suicide than die… truly an appropriate choice.'

'The only saving grace was that they were extremely rare to encounter. Sparing no cost to kill, indeed. But they misjudged me, thinking that I wouldn't be able to retaliate!'

'Want to make a move on me? You'll have to pay the price!'

Killing intent flashed in Marvin's eyes.

He naturally didn't have a good impression of the Gods. Marvin was someone who always got his revenge. The Twin Snakes Cult tried to kill him, and now only a lonely Azure Matriarch remained in Feinan. Diggles wanted to kill him, and as a result, the Decaying Plateau fell. The Shadow Prince wanted to kill him, so the Shadow Realm collapsed!

Currently, apart from the Great Gods and some Ancient Gods, Marvin wasn't afraid of any of them.

Even if it was the High Dream God that went after him again, Marvin had already made preparations for it.

Let alone now that the aggressor was only the Black Dragon God, who was only a Mid God!

If it was Tidomas, Marvin would back down for now, because he was still no match for him!

But the Black Dragon God didn't have the qualifications for Marvin to need to back down.

Marvin admitted that the Martyr was really troublesome and that even he couldn't resist the Self-Immolation Fire.

But everything had advantages and disadvantages.

The Martyr wanted to use the Self-Immolation Fire combined with the Crypt Monster to take care of Marvin, but he had missed something.

The Crypt Monster was an uncertain variable!

He still had doubts about whether Marvin would be able to resist or escape his Self-Immolation Fire, and thus chose such a location.

This uncertainty would soon cause the Black Dragon God to pay a huge price!

"Diiiing!"

A sharp sound pierced through the air.

That was the sound of the Time Funnel warning that the time stasis on Marvin's body was about to disappear!

Marvin quickly took out the Book of Nalu!

Indeed, the Book of Nalu.

Although his idea was very risky, if it worked, the situation would turn out much better for him.

The Crypt Monster was still confused, but it was quickly becoming enraged at the Divine Fire for the rude awakening.

If that monster was set free in Feinan, then at least half of the continent would be torn apart shortly afterwards!

Marvin couldn't allow this to happen.

He now had three pages of the Book of Nalu in his hands.

The power of the three pages of the Book of Nalu was already quite formidable, to the point that Marvin wouldn't dare to use the full power of the treasure except in emergencies. Marvin's knowledge of the mysteriousness and insidiousness of the God of Deception made him subconsciously try to stay as far as he could from that Artifact.

But now, the Book of Nalu was his only choice.

Of course, he wasn't stupid enough to try and use the Book of Nalu to directly control the Crypt Monster's mind.

He only needed to slightly influence it.

As time started again, Marvin analyzed the golden thread and the aura of the raging flames behind it, using his Wisdom power to derive some plane coordinates!

They were from the Martyr's remains!

The Martyr almost certainly had been born in a Secondary Plane that was affiliated to the Black Dragon God, which would have ensured his extreme piety.

He probably had been sent directly from that plane to kill Marvin.

And his Divine Source still contained that plane's mark!

Even though he had already obliterated his own Divine Source and turned it all into Self-Immolation Fire, that plane's coordinates could still be found in those flames.

It was safe to say that discovering traces of the source plane and then calculating the coordinates from that information was something that only astute Legendary Wizards and other such people with brilliant minds could ever do. But thanks to the effects of the Wisdom power and the Wisdom Chapter, Marvin recognized it instinctively.

He could decipher those plane coordinates.

When he figured them out in full, a beautiful scene appeared before him.

It was a beautiful world, an ideal paradise!

There were Black Dragons soaring in the sky, and the sprawling land had many towering forests and towns ruled by Dragonborns.

The Black Dragon God's church was keeping order in the dark.

That place had rich resources, beautiful mountains, and flowing rivers.

It was just like Arborea, a bountiful Secondary Plane, except this one was developed by the Black Dragon God!

And a big difference was that the Black Dragon God seemed to be a lot better than the Shadow Prince when it came to management.

At least, his people seemed very happy with their God. That explained how the Black Dragon God had managed to find a follower with the qualifications to become something as unique as a Martyr.

But this beautiful place was about to disappear.

Marvin didn't hesitate. He couldn't.

This was an entire world filled with pious followers, all of them followers of the Black Dragon God. Marvin couldn't change their faith.

All of this was related to his problems, and it was extremely troublesome.

Thus, now that he had the opportunity, Marvin decided to curtail these troubles.

Since the Black Dragon God wanted to kill him, Marvin should return the favor and destroy his plane.

In a flash, he activated the Book of Nalu at full power, sending its aura out and bathing both the Crypt Monster and the Martyr's remains in it. The world called [Black Dragon Wing] appeared in the Crypt Monster's mind!

Along with its plane coordinates!
