The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 991 The War to End Everything (Part 7)

"Monster, what are you staring at?"

In the boundless void, the giant let out a furious roar. The adjective "enormous" is insufficient to describe the size of this giant, for it has transcended the category of "enormous." Perhaps the word "magnificent" would be more appropriate.

Opposite the giant, an indescribable being clad in black robes was awakened by a roar.

This indescribable creature wore a black wizard's robe, but the face beneath it was constantly twisting and changing. Upon closer inspection, its face was found to be composed of countless smaller faces, making it look utterly terrifying.

As it roared, the giant swung its warhammer down.

The terrifying power of the warhammer stirred up a storm in the void; even a Overlord would find it difficult to withstand the byproduct of this attack.

boom!
The indescribable black-robed creature had half its body shattered by the heavy hammer. Golden flames burned fiercely on its body, and with each second the flames remained, its aura weakened.

But after the flames disappeared, the weakened aura returned in an instant.

"Thank you for your concern." The voice of the civilization devourer seemed to be the voice of millions of people gathered together. "In return, I will savor your soul carefully."

How about ten million years? If that's not enough, I can savor twenty million years, and you can even add your students and lover to enjoy it together.

As he spoke, a series of blasphemous words rang out from the civilization devourer. As these blasphemous words were chanted, the mysterious forces that wandered through endless dimensions began to cross the void and come to His side.

Richard's manipulation of probability is not insurmountable; mysterious forces are one option to counter this power.

Richard examined the monster; their battle had been going on for a year.

Throughout the year, he repeatedly tried to kill the monster. But no matter how powerful his methods were, the monster could quickly recover and even interfere with him.

At this moment, the blasphemous voices of the civilization devourers echoed incessantly in his ears. If his reason faltered even slightly, these blasphemous notes would rush into his soul, turning his personal memories into a complete mess.

"Ten million years? That's a good joke."

Richard's voice was utterly calm; his soul was incredibly still, like a rock. No external disturbance could interfere with his reason.

"Do you think you can win?" the Civilization Devourer asked rhetorically. This time, His voice was very fluent. After a year of practice, He had become accustomed to the inefficient way of communicating through language.

"Is it by your legion, or by you? It can't be by fate."

"Your summary is good."

As Richard swung the Worldhammer, the four elemental rules converged and intertwined on the hammer, ultimately transforming into an unprecedented rule.

Under this rule, nothing can become pure energy.

The civilization devourer's eyes changed slightly, and the staff in its hand also emitted fluctuations of the four elemental rules.

But his rules are exactly the opposite of Richard's; His rules allow energy to return to its elemental state.

Both organisms are near the pinnacle of evolution; rules are like clay to them, easily molded and shaped. Creating rules through combination is a simple matter for them.

They have almost reached the pinnacle of the Dominator level, making a single, decisive blow impossible.

To annihilate their opponent, they must either completely deplete the opponent's resources or reach a higher realm before the opponent does.

Suddenly, Richard looked in one direction, ignoring even the attacks from the civilization devourers.

Where his gaze fell, a chilling wave was spreading through the void to even greater distances.

A ruler has fallen.

……

Time goes back to one minute ago.

In the void, a small-dimensional annihilation cannon suddenly erupted from the body of the Tower Overlord, repelling the approaching civilization devourer clone.

Countless cracks are spreading across his metal tower.

The desecrating power of the civilization devourer is eroding his body, and even with the Miracle Fire, he is struggling to resist its erosion when he is at a disadvantage.

Click.

A piece of broken bronze fell from the tower's ruler.

"What bad luck," the Tower Overlord muttered to himself. "I never thought I'd die at the hands of this monster so soon after leaving that wretched place."

In fact, the Tower Overlord's choice to flee at this moment does not violate the contract.

Since his injuries were no longer sufficient to continue fighting, fleeing to buy time was also permitted by the contract.

However, the Tower Overlord did not choose this option.

He knew he couldn't escape. The civilization devourer's clone already had the upper hand. Even if he were good at escaping, he couldn't possibly outrun the monster in front of him in his current state.

He was just an ordinary level eight overlord. Even though his strength had increased significantly due to technical exchanges, he was still just an ordinary level eight overlord.

In his life, he was comparable to the protagonist, but in this battlefield of fierce battles, which one of the masters was not the protagonist of their own story?

Opposite him, the avatar of the civilization devourer was approaching him, carrying a large, cracked shield.

The origin of this massive shield is unknown; even the Tower Overlord, despite his best efforts, could not break it.

"However, death is death. It would be a bit ridiculous if you were to devour me after I die."

The Tower Overlord suddenly burst into laughter, and the fluctuations in dimensional power began to increase rapidly. Those who are determined to die are fearless, so at this moment he acted without restraint.

hum!
An extremely intense fluctuation of dimensional power emanated from the Tower Overlord.

That was the aftershock of his breaking down of dimensions.

He has completely separated himself from his own dimension, so that even if he dies, his civilization will not be without a ruler.

As for how to fight without dimensions... Suddenly, a piece of white paper appeared on the Tower Overlord's body. On the white paper, complex runes formed a golden scale.

Those are pages from the Book of All Laws!
The white paper burned, and the scales were branded onto the tower's ruler.

A grand bell rang out from within the Tower Overlord's body, and with each chime, the Tower Overlord's aura grew stronger.

This power did not come from nothing; it comes from the future, from that future that has not yet begun.

This is another application mode of the wizard dimension civilization's powers.

Wizards can borrow power from the future through equivalent exchange. This ability consumes lifespan; the more they borrow, the more they consume. Furthermore, it prevents wizards from breaking through life levels. In other words, a level five being can only borrow the maximum power they can bear.

Furthermore, once the borrowed power is exhausted, the creature will immediately fall into a state of repaying the loan.

It is clear that there are loopholes in the rules governing this ability.

The future is uncertain without observation; no one knows whether they will die in the next second.

Furthermore, if the person who borrows the power dies while using it, the transaction becomes paradoxical.

Therefore, this capability has a safety net.

If a user dies before repaying their loan, the loan will be transferred directly to the Wizard Dimension.

This method of application is rather useless for wizards, far less useful than the contributions of the mayfly in the Starry Night Mayfly.

Because it cannot break through the life level, meaning it still cannot fight against powerful enemies.

Furthermore, it only provides power, not control over that power.

In other words, the wizard who borrows the power must have enough mental strength to control this sudden power.

But if they have that kind of energy, it means the battle is still under control.

Obviously, this approach is not very applicable in most battles that require strength.

However, there are exceptions to everything.

The power of the tower master returned to its peak in an instant, and energy and dimensional power surged within his body like a tide.

Ultimately, it turned into a peculiar cycle.

"Miracle Wizard, we're even now."

The Tower Overlord roared, and his entire body instantly disintegrated.

The next moment, a huge magic circle appeared in the air, and then a dazzling flash, like a supernova explosion, engulfed the civilization devourer's clone.

In his final moments, the Tower Overlord witnessed the collapse of the great shield.

"So it can be broken, huh? I'm just too weak."

The next moment, his soul vanished completely, like that fleeting flash of light.

The civilization devourer's clone was annihilated by this attack, and even the great shield defense was of no use.

"We're even."

"Look at the flashing light," he replied in a low voice.

He turned to look at the Civilization Devourer, who, in contrast to Richard's calmness, was somewhat enraged.

"You filthy bastards who waste food, you wouldn't even let me have a bite. After I wipe you all out, I'll find this bastard civilization and devour it completely, bit by bit!"

After consuming the meme of the Cursed Crown, the Civilization Devourer became more and more like a human.

However, the more He resembled Him, the deeper Richard's worries became.

He knew that the civilization devourer must have anticipated this situation. But He still chose to do it.

There must be a huge secret behind this.

This secret will surely allow him to become a level 8.5 creature.

However, even the Titan King did not know what this secret was at this moment.

“Ignore him.” The Titan King’s voice rang in Richard’s ears. “My existence is to prevent Him from ascending.”

If He is promoted, I will bring Him down.

If he doesn't get promoted, then we'll crush him bit by bit.

Although Richard was unclear about the situation on the ground, he was certain, based on the Miracle Forge's reaction to the Miracle Fire, that the Miracle Fire was expanding.

This only shows that the legion is advancing.

boom!
Richard casually waved his hand, shattering one of the tentacles that had extended from the civilization devourer.

Seemingly because it hadn't eaten anything, the civilization devourer's anger was growing, and its body was becoming increasingly unstable.

The humanoid body resembling the Crown of Curses had begun to tremble, as if countless bizarre tentacles, pieced together from its body, were extending out.

"That's disgusting."

As he examined the limbs that made up the tentacles, the disgust on his face was almost tangible.

Those are the corpses of the defeated, the source of the civilization devourers' summoning of past illusions.

If they lose this battle, their fate will be the same as that of those limbs.
