473: Chapter 443 He Died a Very Miserable Death (2/3) 473: Chapter 443 He Died a Very Miserable Death (2/3) “Buzz—”
Accompanied by the atmospheric tremor caused by the gathering of Origin Quality, Ian realized sothing was amiss—he widened his eyes and saw several huge components on the back of the Magnetic Light Knight’s armored clothing flying into the air amidst flashing electric arcs; then, right there in midair, they combined to form an Alchemical Firearm as long as two of his arms.
As it was being assembled, the Alchemical Firearm was already activated, its built-in alchemy module nearly fully charged, and it aid at him with unerring accuracy.
Ian wanted to evade, but for so reason, as he tried to change directions continuously in midair with his Fairy Wings, he still couldn’t shake off the targeting of the gun’s barrel.
“It’s Magnetic Sand!”
In just an instant, Ian figured out the key—he looked down frowned, and saw that on the Entangling Void Armor, indeed, there was the black Magnetic Sand that had previously been scattered from Magnetic Light, slowly wriggling about.
The Magnetic Light Knight was using these magnetically charged iron sands to precisely and accurately lock onto his position in the pitch-black night sky!
Even more so, it was the guiding point that led the attack to its mark!
It was already too late, a cyan Thunderclap burst forth from the Magnetic Light Knight’s firelock, racing towards the Magnetic Sand on the Entangling Void Armor.
Its speed was faster than sound; before the sound could be heard, it had already hit its target.
And for a First Energy Level Sublimator, whether an Alchemist or any other profession, a direct hit ant certain death!
But obviously, Ian was not at the First Energy Level.
Even if it was a disguise, he was not an ordinary First Energy Level.
The young man raised his left hand, and a light aqua glow spilled out from the breathing openings of the Entangling Void Armor—this energy, far more powerful than the thick Spirit Energy Ian had displayed before, flowed in and out of these openings, making this hand beco the most solid shield.
He stretched it out, pressing down on the oncoming lightning as if in slow motion, the heavy Spirit Energy in midair solidified into a more concrete form…
vaguely discernible was a shape resembling dragon claws!
The pure Spirit Energy collided and offset each other, causing a massive explosion.
Ian kept retreating, diffusing the huge force.
But it was clear, he was unhard.
“Dragonization Organ!”
The Magnetic Light Knight let out a cry of surprise, then quickly regained his composure, “You truly must be a mber of the Dragon Worship Cult!”
Even the Purple Maple Knight, who had already run a great distance, turned her head back, her beautiful eyes staring intently at Ian in the sky, her gaze so fierce it could almost kill.
But contrary to what her gaze suggested, the Purple Maple Knight retreated even faster—because she knew what it truly ant to be a mber of the Dragon Worship Cult with superior Dragon Blood.
Or rather, what was behind it.
At this mont, the Spirit Energy at Ian’s left forearm armor was so dense, it was almost as if another layer of Spirit Energy Armor was being solidified on the outside of the armored clothing…
of course, that’s precisely what he was doing.
He had emulated the process of the Sand Armor Apprentice solidifying the Sand Armor to crystallize a portion of the power released from the Aether Crystal into form.
But to feign an uncontrollable, strainful manifestation of the Dragonization Organ was still sowhat difficult.
Fortunately, he was wearing a helt now; otherwise, the Magnetic Light Knight would have surely noticed that he wasn’t in as much pain as a typical Dragonized being using their trump card.
“Listen.”
But at this mont, the Magnetic Light Knight didn’t continue to attack—perhaps his alchemical firelock needed to cool down, or perhaps he saw sothing from Ian’s showing of his ‘trump card’: “Since you’re a mber of the Dragon Worship Cult, you must understand that we are not enemies…
at least not entirely, we have a cooperation agreent in South Ridge.”
“Chasing from Nauman City to the edge of the Nine Spirals Abyss…” Ian spoke in a slightly breathless, weary voice, “Can you give a reason?”
“Who killed Night Snake?”
Although the Magnetic Light Knight didn’t continue to operate the alchemical firelock, the barrel remained aid at Ian’s position.
He squinted his eyes, observing the details of Ian’s ‘Dragonization Organ’: “And what did you see?”
“I once received an urgent communication from Night Snake, but it was interfered with by a Spirit Energy User—Baron Leyan’s children were all undergoing experints, it couldn’t be them.”
“The only Spirit Energy User present capable of interfering with the communication was you.”
“Tell why.”
—Then you’re seriously underestimating those kids.
Ian thought to himself and had to admit that he had also underestimated those kids.
However, was it this very problem that drew the attention of the Magnetic Light Knight?
Indeed, no one would think that a few kids used as test subjects could actually conspire against the Head of the Spiritual Wisdom Institute.
So, he laughed, “Indeed, Night Snake and you are on the sa side.
Clearly about to die, yet they didn’t send a warning to the Spirit Wisdom Institute, but to you?”
“Then I have to ask you—why didn’t you stop them from conducting such bloody and cruel experints that violate humanity when you clearly aren’t on the sa side as the Spirit Wisdom Institute?”
“Although I don’t like it,” the Magnetic Light Knight shrugged, replying with apparent indifference, “it can ultimately lead to technological advancent.”
“After all, it’s the Spirit Wisdom Institute that does it; we rely transfer the technology when it’s ready.”
Ian narrowed his eyes, and the youth suddenly smiled, “So you’re just watching from the sidelines, observing it all.”
“Alright, then I’ll tell you what I saw.”
“Oh?” The Magnetic Light Knight’s brow furrowed, waiting for Ian to reveal the truth.
“I saw that he…”
And Ian took a deep breath, then with a smile said, “died a horrible death.”
“And so will you.”
Afterward, without the slightest pause, he drew his longsword from his waist, and the chill around his Entangling Void Armor suddenly coalesced into layer up layer of solid ice.
Then, like a teor, he charged diagonally towards the Magnetic Light Knight, who showed a look of astonishnt!
Boom!
Instantly, a hurricane rose around the stone forest, sending dust and debris flying.
Beneath the Magnetic Light Knight’s feet, Magnetic Sand surged, swiftly gliding him away, while the spot where he had just been was cleaved by Ian, leaving a trench about half a ter wide.
In the trench, the cold air was so intense that all the water left by the water gun was completely frozen.
Even the Magnetic Light Knight wasn’t sure if he could withstand an attack from Ian using his Dragonization Organ.
“Have you gone mad?
You dare to engage in close combat with , relying on your Dragonization Organ?”
The Magnetic Light Knight’s expression turned grave, and he too understood why Ian had suddenly given up using the Charged Water Gun and chosen to fight him up close—because his own alchemical firearm, which could lock onto the target, posed a greater threat to the Guide Knight at range than the Guide Knight did to him.
If that was the case, it was better to give up the destined-to-fail shootout and try to use the brute force brought by the Dragonization Organ to close the gap between the First and Second Energy Levels.
“But I have to tell you…
having Dragon Blood alone is far from enough to bridge the gap between the First and Second Energy Levels!”
