Sorcerer: I want to be an Academic Prodigy

Chapter 687: Chapter 652: Victory and Sudden Change

Deep within the palace, Dewitt has revealed his true form, his figure indistinguishable from a human’s, except for bestial eyes, fangs, and a pair of short sharp horns sprouting from his head.

As Dokali described, he is a devil born of the Abyss Plane.

His complexion leans towards a fiery red as if he had drunk excessively, drawing attention—perhaps the origin of the name “Red Devil.”

At this moment, under Dewitt’s manipulation, the aura belonging to the Scarlet Legion flows in from all directions, converging into the palace, quickly pervading every inch of space inside.

“Go to hell!”

“My Lord, be careful.”

The scarlet red light transforms into numerous massive beast shadows, resembling both insects and dragons, exuding an imposing and terrifying momentum as they scramble to rush towards Ivan. Seeing this, Dokali, still in the form of an evil-winged dragon, prepared to intercept as a sign of loyalty.

“Dokali, you wretch, I won’t forgive you.” This move of hers almost tested the limits of Dewitt’s patience.

“Stand back!” Ivan promptly shouted Dokali back.

He could tell that the scarlet beast shadows now were fundamentally different from those during the Little Black Moustache Plane, with some qualitative differences, and the already injured Dokali surely couldn’t withstand them.

Facing the furious onslaught, he raised his hand, and soulfire—the fire that burns all—surged up, spreading all around.

Alongside the soulfire appeared the omnipresent king’s silkworm whiskers, the two working together, also transforming into giant pythons, colliding with and tearing through the rampant scarlet beast shadows.

At his current level, every move did not need to adhere to convention, only focusing on the essence of power.

When the two forces collided, Ivan’s form flickered, swiftly passing through numerous obstacles, penetrating deep into the palace, and in the blink of an eye, arriving not far from Dewitt.

To capture the leader is to capture the king.

“Arrogant.”

The palace could be said to be where Dewitt laid a Heaven and Earth Net, and seeing the enemy’s rampant behavior, he naturally wouldn’t be polite. The familiar dragon-shaped black insects reappeared, wrapped in deadly black light, pouncing at Ivan.

The speed was astounding.

Ivan turned himself around, once again transforming into the form of the King’s silkworm, guarded tightly by a tower and a lamp.

“Impossible!”

The black light, deadly as it was, landed on the dark purple protective light shield created by the True Knowledge Spirit Lamp, yet it didn’t budge it in the slightest, greatly startling Dewitt.

The dragon-shaped black insects were blocked by the Wood Soul Tower.

Seeing this, Ivan manipulated the True Knowledge Spirit Lamp, causing the dark purple light around him to intensify, with a beam directly heading toward Dewitt not far away.

Dewitt, having suffered a significant loss before, dare not remain indifferent at this point. One could see his form shift, transforming entirely into a genuine dragon-shaped black insect, appearing especially fierce and especially tenacious.

“I’ll tear you apart.”

“Is that all you got? You disappoint me.”

As someone proficient in the soul, life, and space triad, Ivan has never feared any close-quarters combat.

His soul power brought the Void King Spirit Body and mysterious soul techniques, the Life Path molded tenacious lifeforce and recovery, and space granted speed and aggression.

In addition, he had the Wood Soul Tower and the True Knowledge Spirit Lamp to support himself.

Even though the True Knowledge Spirit Lamp was newly refined, its power was extraordinary, mainly divided into three aspects: Protective Light Shield, Light of Confusion, and Enhanced Comprehension.

Unlike the protection provided by the Wood Soul Tower, the True Knowledge Spirit Lamp focuses on defense against various strange forces, including those left by the Scarlet Legion.

Both being refined from wisdom power, when the True Knowledge Spirit Lamp is activated, it can also receive the power blessing of the Prophet’s Treasure Tome, revealing extraordinary might.

One was the dragon-shaped black insect.

One was the Void King Silkworm.

The roaring engagement began.

In seconds, the palace was lifted away, and the ground sunk several inches below.

The entire Skeleton Battleship shook continuously, forcing Dokali, who was outside the palace, to retreat repeatedly, staring at the warring parties in amazement.

Being also an Ancient King, she had never thought that the Level 5 tier could unleash such formidable power; it didn’t seem like the same realm.

“These two are both on the verge of ascending the throne, aren’t they? Neither can be provoked; luckily, I’ve always been pragmatic.”

“The Red Bone King is defeated!”

Moments later, Dokali witnessed the downfall of her former boss, her remaining thoughts dissipating one by one.

On the other side, there was a resounding crash, as a massive black figure came crashing heavily to the ground, with the surrounding red mist churning incessantly.

Upon landing, the black figure squirmed but didn’t fully revert to Dewitt’s original form, leaving only a semi-demon, semi-giant insect appearance.

“I ask you, why are we sworn enemies?” Dewitt, on the brink of death, pondered something and asked a question.

“Who knows.”

As enemies, Ivan had no inclination to answer, raising his hand to finish the opponent.

The dignified inheritor of the Supreme Red is thus buried under the crushing weight of the Wood Soul Tower, taking the Scarlet Standard and war drum as spoils of war.

To Ivan, Dewitt was not considered a qualified heir of the Scarlet Legion. The new legion was far from the Scarlet Legion, underdeveloped in all aspects.

“So that’s how it is; this guy’s ambition isn’t small, he actually succeeded in planting silent seeds in over a dozen planes, all hidden and undeveloped.”

“Ah, the throne, only for the throne to be completed, would he reveal his flag and ardently develop the new Scarlet Legion—”

Even with only a corpse remaining, with Ivan’s methods, he could glean much information from it; Dewitt was undoubtedly a person who understood patience.

Unfortunately, his luck was not good, encountering a nemesis-like figure like himself.
