Chapter 143: The Mouthpiece of the Night (Part )Cassius looked around solemnly, the scenery around him was getting darker and darker, transforming into the Shadow Underworld - the surroundings were pitch black, quiet, and filled with monotonous black and white. The dead branches of the trees were twisted and hideous, and the sky was shrouded in endless shadows, like a pitch-black dome, while in the distance there were still blurry black mountains. A terrible thought suddenly arose in the Red Dragon's mind. The space of this entire area is distorted! In other words, it is impossible to leave this dusk forest which is only a few miles in radius. All living beings are trapped here! Cassius said to the giant dragon projection in the sky, "Shadow Dragon, you have cursed this forest." "You are right. This is my Shadow Realm. My poor contractor sacrificed thousands of lives so that I could use this power in the main material world. I created this insignificant place for my main body to descend into the material world." "look……" "Dead silence, tranquility, darkness, and depth. Without the hustle and bustle of those vile mortals in the main material world, what a beautiful scenery. It is really indulgent." “It would be even more wonderful if I could hear the wailing of the undead shadows.” Mortifer narrowed his eyes slightly, and slowly flapped his wings with a relaxed expression, as if he was truly feeling the unique beauty of this darkness, even though he had not yet completely completed the transformation and his body was still in the Shadow Underworld. The atmosphere seemed calm, but this did not make Cassius feel relaxed at all. He only felt terrified.
——This only shows that the Shadow Dragon has absolute confidence. "The Mouthpiece of the Night, you are the one who provided Brad Rackman with the so-called ascension?" "That's right. Mortals are always so short-sighted. Even those who have been transformed into so-called vampires are still like this. But you are different. You were once my kind. However, I did not deceive him. For such an inferior being, ascending is indeed a good way. It's just that he failed. So I have no choice but to abide by the contract and turn him into my nourishment." "What a despicable fellow." Mortifer opened his eyes, and his gray eyes stared straight at Cassius, as if they wanted to swallow him up. "Red Dragon, we still have a long time to catch up, but I once promised the contractor that I would take your life. I always keep my promises, and this time is no exception." "Don't worry, my dear fellow. That's just what I mean literally. When I truly descend into the material world, you will indeed lose your life, but you will also continue your existence in a greater form." His words were very tactful, like those of a polite scholar, but they made Cassius feel a chill from the depths of his soul - it was an infinite hatred towards the living. “I like the quietest darkness.” "So... please don't resist, don't make noise, just wait quietly for me to come." "Okay?" The shadow of Mortifer opened his mouth, revealing a hideous smile, and thick black mist slowly flowed from the corners of his mouth. "Shadow Dragon, you are dreaming!" "I will turn you to ashes!" The red dragon roared and spewed raging fire at the transforming, defenseless projection. However, the flames that were powerful enough to melt rocks actually penetrated directly into the huge shadow of Motifer without causing any damage at all. "Has anyone ever told you—" "Never try to attack a shadow." The shadow of Mortifell bathed in the flames nonchalantly, chuckling mockingly.
Even though the flames penetrated his body, the shadow continued to solidify and was not affected by the flames at all. "Is it really not possible?" The scales above Cassius' eyes wrinkled slightly and he muttered to himself. The Red Dragon had expected that his extremely effective fire breath, which he was so proud of, would not work. "What about this?" The red dragon was surrounded by leaping and flashing thunder and crashed directly into the shadow of Mortifer. It's the body of the Storm's Remnant! However, Cassius's dragon body penetrated through as expected, and even the lightning had no reaction, but continued to jump and entangle around the red dragon. This attack actually made the red dragon's body feel cold, as if it had fallen into an ice cave. It felt a little bit of its vitality being sucked away by the phantom transformed by the ghost. “Is this the shadow creature?” "Fire, physics, and lightning don't work, so what about force fields?" 【Magic Missile】 Magic balls containing force field energy were fired one after another. These lowest-level magic missiles, which even mage apprentices can use, did not penetrate the shadow, but instead actually hit the shadow, causing it to suffer negligible damage. But this is just a drop in the bucket and is far from being able to keep up with the speed of the Shadow Dragon's transformation and arrival. The information is refreshed on the panel. Living Shadow [In dim light or dark environment, Shadow Dragon is immune to all damage except force field, mind, and light.] Kaixiu was immediately shocked that there was such a characteristic! This means that once the Shadow Dragon arrives, all of his methods will be almost ineffective! "Low light or dark conditions..." Cassius looked up at the lightless sky and the obscured moon. He did not think that he had the ability to create light in this dark realm composed of countless shadows. His only light magic trick was like a joke in this shadow realm. All living beings will become weak, all spells will be suppressed here, only darkness and shadows will remain forever. This is the world of shadows, the absolute home of Mortimer. When he comes—— Where the shadow is is the body of the Shadow Dragon. "Don't struggle. I will give you a grand funeral." "This is to mourn the death of a true dragon and celebrate the birth of a great, immortal shadow red dragon." The Shadow Dragon raised its head and let out a roar. The sound seemed to come from the eternal darkness, mixed with the hoarse wails of thousands of undead shadows. It also contained the shadow dragon's infinite hatred for light and life, as well as its endless greed. This is a nine-ring spell unique to the Shadow Dragon. ——【Motifer's Shadow of Advent】 His shadow had become increasingly solid, and the dark dome in the sky was even slowly descending.
The shadowy mountain in the distance slowly approached, sealing off the area where the red dragon was like a cage, and it continued to shrink. Thousands of shadowy creatures in the dusk forest wailed and surged over like a tide. Even the black mist that Duke Brad had transformed into could be seen. "What a terrifying power this is..." "Are we really going to be trapped here, waiting for this Shadow Dragon to come?" Cassius flapped his wings, looked up at the slowly descending dark dome, felt the increasingly strong sense of oppression, and couldn't help feeling a little anxious. (End of this chapter)
