Transcendent Dawn

ꨡ[6Ba~oNz5: Chapter 805 Dreamland Chapter 805: Chapter 805 Dreamland In an unnamed space.

Above a piece of dream-making crystal flickering with iridescent hues, a crack was steadily growing larger.

The power of ‘Dream’ surged, and tendrils of mist spread from the crevice.

Within them, a faint roar seemed to be entangled:

“…Ancient Ruler…

Great Being…

Montiq!”

Su Lu looked on calmly at this scene.

“The Dream Ruler Montiq, as well as Avit, Flynn, Oen…”

These were four Old Gods He had sealed.

Since the samples were hard to come by, the choice had not been to annihilate them, but to seal them for a long time, even deliberately allowing flaws in the seals.

After a lengthy slumber, the mere mention of Montiq’s name had startled the entity awake.

The divine authority of a god lay in the fact that whoever called out its real name would be known!

Unlike with the Insect Clan.

This time, Montiq had slept for a long time and accumulated even greater strength.

And the seal had become even more unstable.

Complex and terrifying information was passed down, transmitted into the heads of screaming and wailing magicians.

…

Mages, with their high spiritual power, found accessing this information far simpler than ordinary people.

Numerous noble mages were now crumpled on the ground like dogs, tears and snot streaming.

Intense agony made them continuously roll their eyes back.

This was not physical pain, but torment within their minds.

As if someone was jabbing their brains with iron tongs, and then infusing them with a mass of chaotic knowledge.

“Ah!”

Amid the screams, the eyeballs of a few low-level magicians protruded and exploded with a ‘pop’, leaving two bloody sockets.

Their skulls split open, and their grey brains, as if becoming living creatures, sprouted countless tentacles and scuttled away.

Dami and two other magic tutors were in a considerably better state than the other magicians.

At least, their swollen heads had calmed down, though veins and arteries still bulged prominently.

Gashes opened up on their bodies, revealing writhing tentacles, eyes, hair…

Clumps of flesh burst open to reveal blue scales.

Abnormal evolution seemed to condense millions of years of history into mere moments, repeatedly unfolding upon them.

Finally…@@novelbin@@

the screams gradually ceased.

At this time, only three magic tutors of the adventuring party were left alive.

Even so, terrifying changes had occurred to them.

“I…”

Dami lifted his right hand, noticing his five fingers had become tentacles with suction cups.

Not only that, one of his legs had turned into the jointed limb of a marine animal, with sharp spurs protruding.

The two magic tutors opposite him had undergone similar transformations, one covered in scales as if becoming a Fish Person, and the other sprouting many ugly eyes that stared at him, creating a spine-chilling sensation.

“We…”

He began, his voice hoarse.

“We have been favored by the Ancient Ruler!” Samo followed.

“Yes, we now know so much…

like the rulers who governed the continent in ancient times.

The being we worship, that stands atop all rulers, is a god from bygone days!”

The third Fish Person magic tutor proclaimed fervently.

“Our lord’s power has transformed us, making us more powerful…

allowing us to do a series of things in dreams, but…”

Dami looked at his own body: “What do we do next?

Go back?”

Would human society be willing to accept these monsters?

Not to mention, mages were a group filled with a spirit of inquiry; perhaps Ilya the tutor would be the first to dissect them!

“Why go back?

The truth we hold lies right here!” Samo pointed at the Acute Angle Monument, “And furthermore…

we must call upon our Lord, through the act of faith!”

The Divine does not need faith, but the power of belief is a supplemental force.

For Montiq, whose seal is now loosening, this power is needed to break the Seal.

One could say that the long duration of the Seal finally allowed Him to regain some clarity, sparing these ‘disturbers’ from a painful death.

In a sense, Dami and the others were luckier than the Insect Clan.

Of course, this might also be the beginning of humankind’s misfortune.

“It is true, my Lord needs faith…”

Dami muttered to himself, “Then…

all for my Lord…”

In fact, during the low whispers just now.

Their spirits, their thoughts had been utterly ‘corrupted.’

At this moment, their hearts were wholly devoted, venerating the Ancient Ruler—Montiq.

As for their loyalty to the tutors, to mankind, to the Empire, all were cast aside.

…

“What?

Gone?”

Aboard the Brilliant.

Ilya, upon hearing her subordinate’s report, showed a look of surprise and skepticism, “The three magic tutors, none of them are responding?

What about their Floating City?”

“Magic communication has been completely cut off.”

A magic tutor spoke bitterly, glancing at Ilya.

Everyone knew that the Floating City was a node of the Magic Net, containing secret passages set by Ilya.

Perhaps the Great Magic Emperor could track down the others.

Ilya closed her eyes.

After a long while, she showed a resigned expression, “I cannot sense anything…”

This was the cause for alarm.

Unless the Floating City had crashed or had been ‘concealed’ by a more powerful force, it should not have escaped Ilya’s perception.

“It seems that something serious has indeed happened.”

Ilya murmured to herself, “The tropical rainforest of Fatamar?

I must go there personally!”

The Empire’s magicians explored various relics in search of the thirteenth Acute Angle Monument.

Before Dami’s incident, even Ilya couldn’t be certain of its whereabouts.

But now, its location seemed to have been exposed.

To be honest, at this moment, Ilya’s heart was filled with more joy than shock.

After all, she was the true strongest person on the continent, and any plot or trick could be shattered with strength!

…

Nighttime.

A figure appeared in the Floating City, arriving outside Ilya’s bedroom and knocked on the door.

“You…”

Ilya, dressed in a nightgown, recognized the true identities of the three figures in black cloaks outside her door through her hazy spiritual sense, “Dami, it’s you…”

“Tutor…

do you wish to know the true essence of magic?”

Dami’s raspy voice carried out from beneath the cloak.

“No…

you’re not Dami, this isn’t the Floating City!”

Around Ilya, magic runes flickered as her pupils brightened, as if seeing through everything, “This is…

my dream!”

“Yes, we’ve found the thirteenth Acute Angle Monument and have been guided by a great existence, mastering the power of dreams, invading into your dream…”

Dami spread his hands, “Join us, and you will gain everything you desire.”

“And then become a monster like you?!”

Ilya let out a light laugh as the gale sliced through the black cloaks like knives, revealing Dami’s transformed body, “For an old-timer who has been through so much, your temptations are too primitive…”
