Evolving Silver Dragon

Chapter 418: 436 Start Absorbing_1

“What’s going on?”

The Master of Magic, who had merged himself into Stania, naturally detected the anomaly in Stania immediately.

For some reason, the speed of Stania flying away from the Dragon Bone Wasteland had slowed down considerably.

Investigating the source of the anomaly, the Master of Magic quickly found the root of the problem.

“Blackhand?”

At first, the Master of Magic couldn’t believe it, but Blackhand’s magical power was still continuously affecting that one magical channel.

Obviously, this guy had betrayed him!

“Bastard!”

At first, the Master of Magic was almost consumed by rage.

But soon, he figured out what was more important – getting rid of Otto was the most crucial thing right now. As for Blackhand, there would be plenty of chances to deal with him in the future!

With this in mind, the Master of Magic immediately began to address the issue of blocked magical channels, and at his request, Chris and Paton had quickly flown towards Blackhand’s location.

Chris and Paton had already recovered quite a bit of their magical power, and Blackhand’s strength was originally inferior to both of them. As long as they joined forces, they believed stopping Blackhand would not be difficult.

Anyway, Blackhand wouldn’t last much longer, and Stania’s flying speed would soon be back to normal.

Although it seemed like things were heading in a positive direction, the Master of Magic’s mood became even heavier at this moment.

Because, for some reason, he couldn’t find any trace of Otto at this time.

It was as if he had suddenly disappeared without a trace.

However, the Master of Magic was certain that Otto had not been left behind. After all, within the break time, Stania’s flying speed had been slightly slower than Otto’s extreme flying speed due to Blackhand’s actions.

Just as the Master of Magic was racking his brains to search for Otto’s whereabouts, a loud noise suddenly came from the rear of Stania, accompanied by a violent vibration.

Looking in the direction of the anomaly, the Master of Magic was horrified to discover that Otto, who had disappeared earlier, had somehow crashed into the rear of Stania.

This damned Black Dragon was like a giant crossbow bolt, using its dragon horn as an arrowhead, stabbing it fiercely into the rocky foundation below Stania.

Soon, the Master of Magic found the reason why Otto was able to suddenly appear behind Stania.

Not far away, a simple teleportation portal was slowly dissipating in the air.

It was a miscalculation!

At this moment, the Master of Magic was full of regret, as he wasn’t aware that Otto possessed such a capability.

Unlike the teleportation portal spells used by ordinary Spellcasters, Otto’s portal ability had a short cast time and didn’t require any casting materials, making it very convenient to use.

In order to prevent the Master of Magic from using the same trick to expel him from Stania again, this time Otto’s limbs had transformed into slender ribbon-like shapes under his deliberate control.

The front part of his limbs, namely the claws, had turned into drill-like objects, with the slender ribbon-like limbs extending to every corner of Stania.

Then, Otto’s ribbon-like limbs expanded many sharp, outward-spreading spines, which, like roots, embedded themselves firmly into the stone foundation of Stania.

At this point, unless the Master of Magic was willing to give up Stania’s entire stone foundation, he would never be able to shake off Otto.

Of course, the Master of Magic had another option – to fly directly to the Western Empire with Otto using the Stania Floating City.

And now, that was what the Master of Magic was planning to do!

Although he was no match for the Evil Dragon at the moment, the Master of Magic didn’t believe that even after gathering the power of the entire empire, there would be nothing he could do against Otto.

Seeing that the Master of Magic had no intention of showing himself, and the speed and trajectory of Stania’s flight hadn’t changed, Otto quickly deduced the other party’s intention.

It seemed that the Master of Magic believed that after he merged himself completely into Stania, Otto wouldn’t be able to do anything to him.

However, was that really the case?

With this thought, an icy smirk appeared on Otto’s face, and his entire dragon body began to flicker with a strange light.

As if responding to Otto, the Stania Floating City was also emitting a faint light at this time.

Moreover, something was continuously seeping out of Stania and converging towards Otto.

At this moment, Otto was using his absorption ability. Since the Master of Magic had merged himself entirely into Stania and didn’t dare to show his face, he would swallow him up along with the entire Stania!

It should be known that the volume and magical reserves of the Stania Floating City were extremely terrifying. Even with Otto’s current strength, it would take a considerable amount of time to completely devour it using his absorption ability.

And precisely because Otto’s absorption speed was somewhat insignificant compared to Stania’s total quantity, the Master of Magic didn’t notice any abnormalities at first.

By the time Chris and Paton had engaged with Blackhand, the Master of Magic had already cleared the clogged magical channel.

However, what puzzled the Master of Magic was that even though the channel had fully recovered, Stania’s flying speed didn’t seem to be as fast as before.

At the same time, the Master of Magic was also pondering whether it was his own illusion or not, but the flying speed of Stania, although very slight, seemed to be continuously slowing down.

Out of caution, the Master of Magic focused his gaze on Otto.

As a result, all he saw was that this damned Evil Dragon’s scales seemed to be a little brighter on the surface, but there didn’t seem to be anything unusual about it.

Could it be that he was just overthinking it?

“Click…click…”

Just as the Master of Magic was doubting himself, the continuous strange noises coming from the surroundings of the Stania Floating City brought his thoughts back to reality.

At this time, the Master of Magic discovered that, at some point, the stone foundation around Stania began to shed small pieces of rock.

Even though the fallen rocks were still small at this time, they still raised the Master of Magic’s alertness.

As the true owner of the Stania Floating City, no one knew more about this giant toy than the Master of Magic.

The principle of the stone foundation of the floating city was to use a large amount of magical power to link and combine countless large and small stones.

And these stone foundations were the basis and core of the entire Stania!
