Super Dimensional Wizard Chapter 187 Soul of Stars

When Angel left the management office, he was still slightly confused. Getting Melanctha to agree to change the compet.i.tion system was too easy. He felt it was a little too unreal. Although Melanctha finally added another request: “You must not take the initiative to abstain until the point of defeat is reached for each match.”

However, this requirement is still very relaxed for Angel.

Even though Melanctha’s revision of the compet.i.tion system rules for Angel did not affect the fairness of the compet.i.tion. He still finds it a bit strange.

He and Melanctha do not know each other, why is the other party willing to sell him such a big favour?

Angel thought about it for a long time and couldn’t come up with a satisfactory answer. In the end, he can only draw the conclusion that there are still kind-hearted people who do not ask for something in return. Even he thought his request was a bit too absurd.

However, Angel forgot one important thing. Sanders must have communicated with a senior official in the Management Office of Sky Tower if he could get the images of his matches. Melanctha, as one of Sky Tower’s top officials, definitely knows Angel’s true ident.i.ty. Under the condition of knowing the relations.h.i.+p between Sanders and Angel, her concession is actually quite normal.

Sanders doesn’t give in to his apprentices’ wills at all. There must be something unique about Angel which makes Sanders favour him more. One has to know that Sanders has only accepted two apprentices before him, all of whom have advanced to formal Wizards.

Because of this, Melanctha actually has high expectations from Angel.

—Without affecting the fairness of the compet.i.tion system, she can make a “quasi-future Wizard” owe her a favour, and she had nothing to lose. Even if Angel did not qualify as a formal Wizard. In the end, it would have little effect on her. The revision of the compet.i.tion system rules for Angel would not affect the fairness of the entire compet.i.tion at all. These changes will even increase the risk for the contestant, not bringing criticism to her at all.

Melanctha’s calculations are very good. She can only say Angel is still too immature to think at this layer.

…

Melanctha has agreed to make the changes, and when Angel returns to the fifth-floor compet.i.tion again, the staff members no longer has any push back and simply changed his compet.i.tion interval to five minutes.

Since then, Angel has embarked on a more frantic climb to the top of Sky Tower.

In such a high-density and high-intensity compet.i.tion, Angel must have much more precise control over his magic power. After all, he is only a First Level Wizard Apprentice. The total amount of his magic source is not much. Every point of magic power should be rationed. If magic power is consumed recklessly like before, it will easily deplete his magic power reserves after fighting two or three matches.

Under such circ.u.mstances, it is even more difficult for Angel to maintain an absolute win rate.

He saw many different kinds of contestants before, several of which have posed a great threat to him. For example, a puppet system apprentice who manipulated puppets not only could cast a mental force attack but also relies on verbal a.s.saults to attack… Who would use language to attack other contestants? Against these contestants, Angel often ends up spending a lot of magic power and even had to finally rely on an engraved magic pattern golden arrow to win.

It was only at this time that he remembered what Melanctha meant by “You cannot surrender voluntarily after the match has started. You cannot take the initiative to surrender after deciding to fight another match.”

Against these kinds of strong contestants who can consume a lot of his magic power reserves, it can take a long time to win his match. Even if he wins, he will not think about a second match for the rest of the day. Therefore, if he had the ability to consciously screen his next opponents beforehand, and if he meets these strong opponents. He will throw in the towel directly and quickly arrange his next match. Then he will climb the tower faster. Obviously, Melanctha foresaw this approach and has taken steps in advance to stop this from happening. Because if he was able to screen his opponents, then the fairness of the compet.i.tion system will be undermined.

It took Angel almost a week to get to the tenth floor.

On the tenth floor, the auditorium is no longer absolutely empty. Occasionally he will see two or three people watching a match together. However, most of the matches watched were the big favourites in the compet.i.tion, and Angel’s matches have still not drawn attention from a large crowd.

Until this day, when Angel drew his lot to battle against a contestant named “Soul of Stars.” Before the compet.i.tion began, the audience had already filled 30% of the seats above the platform. By the time Angel entered the battle arena it was completely filled.

This is the first time Angel has seen so many spectators after leaving the first floor of Sky Tower.

Angel doesn’t think the audience came to see him. Then there was only one possibility. It was for his opponent, Soul of Stars.

So, is Soul of Stars good?

This question was given a clear answer within two minutes after the match began.

Soul of Stars is really good!

It’s the kind of battle that makes Angel feel uncertain of the outcome, and his compet.i.tor is also the most perverse opponent he has met so far.

During the compet.i.tion, compet.i.tors usually spit words at each other if they had a disagreement with one another. Showing either ferocious expressions or exaggerated ones. But this man laughed as if he were crying before their match. This man clearly displayed himself as a decadent and melancholy handsome man before their match. How did he change so much when their battle started?

The reason why his t.i.tle is “Soul of Stars” was unclear but he feels this man is very powerful. Because he used a method that Angel had never seen before and showed a vague female shadow behind him.

Angel did not know what the shadow was at first. After a couple of brief contacts with the shadow, he not only understood the truth behind the female shadow but also remembered the ident.i.ty of Soul of Stars.

In the Sky Tower seeded contestant directory pa.s.sed onto him by David, the information of Soul of Stars is clearly recorded.

Angel did not remember at first because in the picture David pa.s.sed to him, Soul of Stars still had shoulder-length hair in the image. Although this was also decadent, the image of Soul of Stars in the crystal ball contact device was more biased towards being seen as an artist. But today’s Soul of Stars is like… a crazy person.

Soul of Stars real name is Saka. He is a Mystical Branch Soul System Second Level Apprentice. His teacher is ‘Redemption of the Dead’ Nisi.Byron. He is good at soul manipulation and carries strong souls with him. The souls are called “Three Stars.”

According to the data compiled by David, there are only two stars from his Three Stars, namely “Virgin Star” Sylvia and “Daisy Star” Herrington. According to the data. Saka’s strength has already reached the top level of Second Level Apprentice. But he seems to be suppressing his level as if waiting for someone.

According to Saka’s description, this made Angel less concerned about his means of attack and more concerned about who his teacher was: ‘Redemption of the Dead’ Nisi.Byron…

He has the same teacher as Hooked.i.c.k.

In fact, this also makes sense. After all, both of them are in the Mystical Branch Soul System.

…

The female shadow around Saka is the soul of Sylvia, a powerful Witch Apprentice whom Saka calls “Virgin Star.”

Sylvia had also been a compet.i.tor in Sky Tower before she died at the hands of Saka and was captured by him.

Angel’s strength is far weaker in comparison to Saka. All of his methods for physical defences cannot resist the advancement of Sylvia. Even his erected ice wall simply cannot prevent Sylvia from phasing through his walls.

On the other side, Saka was also wrapped with a chain made of unknown materials. When Angel fired golden arrows at his opponent, the golden arrows could not break through the defence of this unknown chain.

Fortunately, however, Sylvia could not do much harm to him.

Angel is also very confused by this. David’s description of “Virgin Star” Sylvia says she is good at Soul Howl, which can shock and shake the soul to put people in a dizzy state for a short period.

Sylvia has screamed several times, but Angel has felt no sense of soul shock. He was a little sceptical that Sylvia’s previous screams might have just been to scare people and not the rumoured Soul Howl.

Not long ago, Sylvia seemed to be enraged for some reason.

Angel was a little baffled at this. He can’t even hurt Sylvia. Why was she so angry?

Angel saw Sylvia’s delicate cheeks, and her soul burst into a red light.

When the red light suddenly appeared, Angel immediately recalled David’s record. In addition to Soul Howl, Sylvia has another unique magic: Soul Absorption!

Soul Absorption can directly extract the soul from the body by absorbing the essence of the soul. But Sylvia’s level of absorption can only make people feel the pain of their soul being torn at most.

But even with only the pain of soul tearing, it is enough to make people feel the misery of death and end up being easily captured.

There was nothing Angel could do at this point in time. He had never learned a soul defensive spell… His heart was a little upset that he could only constantly focus on attacking Saka.

Today he happened to tell Toby to not join in on the match. Otherwise, he would have let Toby attack Saka directly.

In this critical moment, Angel uses a small golden arrow with an Armor-Piercing Magic Pattern. He cannot believe that his Armor-Piercing arrow cannot pierce through Saka’s chain defence.

In the process of Sylvia’s attack on Angel, Saka did not make any moves at all, but only looked at Angel with a ferocious expression. As he spat words at him on the side from time to time, it made him look totally look insane. But when Sylvia used her Soul Absorption, her eyes flashed red and her expression became even more twisted.

Bang—

There were sounds wind cutting through the air as the small Armour-Piercing arrow fired from Angel’s sleeve.

The golden light flashed and the projectile reached its intended target, Saka’s chain.

As Angel thought, these chains can resist ordinary golden arrows, but they can’t resist the Armour-Piercing arrow.

When the chain was broken, Saka immediately turned pale. The chain was not a real chain, but a defensive means from the soul system, called Soul Chain. The strength of the chain is closely linked to his soul’s strength. At the same time, once the chain is broken, his soul will also be damaged.

Saka had no idea how his chain had been broken.

However, the damage brought to him by the Armour-Piercing arrow was not just limited to his soul. After breaking the soul chain, the Armor-Piercing arrow did not stop but continued to rush toward Saka’s body.

In the end, the Armor-Piercing arrow shot into Saka’s shoulder, and a b.l.o.o.d.y hole oozed continuously.

Angel, who has been practising archery since childhood, rarely missed the target in his sights. He hits Saka on the shoulder. But Angel had no desire to kill him.

David once gave a description of Saka in his data. Saka only “killed” Sylvia by mistake in the Sky Tower compet.i.tion. Since then, he has not taken anyone else’s life in the Sky Tower compet.i.tion. Even if his opponent provoked and insulted him. Saka only let Sylvia shock their souls and leaves quietly after his opponent loses consciousness.

Saka, in Angel’s mind, seems to be a good man. One of the very few in the Wizard Plane. Even if he was a little crazy, Angel didn’t intend to really hurt him.

So he hit Saka’s shoulder instead of anywhere else that was fatal.

Angel believes his Armor-Piercing arrow should have deterred Saka. Then Saka would decide to throw in the towel on his own, right?

Angel had well-intentioned thoughts, but reality did not go as smoothly as he planned.

Sylvia’s Soul Absorption had not stopped, and Saka had no intention of admitting defeat, even—

Saka’s eyes turned red and his expression became even more ferocious and frightening. Angel even saw a faint trace of excitement on Saka’s face.

With a large hole in his shoulder, what he felt was not fear from the injury but excitement?

At this time, Sylvia’s elegant Soul Absorption seems to be coming to an end. As the red light faded, Angel’s face flashed with a trace of regret.

Then, when strange ripples scattered from Sylvia.

Saka’s eyes became even more excited.

Angel thought that he would definitely be stopped by the Soul Absorption, and he was ready to “lose.”

But…

As the ripples being drawn by the Soul Absorption are shaking wildly. Angel only feels a momentary tingling on his spirit.

And then, he didn’t feel anything else at all.

When Sylvia’s red light disappeared, Angel was still standing there confused.

There was a surprise in the eyes of the audience, after the initial excitement in Saka’s eyes, it was replaced with doubt. Angel said in a cold tone, and asked: “Is this it? Was this Soul Absorption?”
