Warlock Apprentice

Chapter 2880: Chapter 2881: Infinite Provision

Laplace was not mistaken; Angel indeed felt more surprise than fear.

To know, previously in the Southern Domain Wizard World or in the Abyss, when constructing the Wilderness of Dreams, the Eliminators that came were giant beasts!

The most terrifying was the one in the Wizard World, where the Eliminator was a horrifying creature with a body comparable to a continent. If not for Shava’s presence, the Wilderness of Dreams corresponding to the Southern Domain could not have taken shape at all.

It was the same in the Abyss; the Eliminator only revealed massive eyes like the Sky Dome, and the Wilderness of Dreams shattered into pieces, ultimately falling into the Void. To glimpse their eyes is to know how huge their body is.

But this time, the Eliminator is not the unreachable giant beast Angel encountered before, but small Magic Monsters. Despite being as numerous and terrifying as locust swarms, the largest among them is no more than the size of a small hill, far removed from the giant beasts of the previous times.

Undoubtedly, if so many Magic Monsters rampage in this newly born world, they might eventually hinder its development. But to completely destroy the new world, it might not be achievable in a short time.

Compared to the giant beast-type Eliminators, the current situation is much milder. If a giant beast-type Eliminator attacks, without external interference, it could tear apart this newly born world in less than a second.

But now, with so many Magic Monsters appearing, breaking through the Boundary Membrane, yet not squeezing the new world apart, the difference is evident.

If these Magic Monsters can be eliminated and thoroughly cleared, this place might indeed become an extension of the Wilderness of Dreams: the Crystal Origin of Dreams!

Thinking of this, Angel naturally felt more joy than fear.

However, Angel did not let down his guard, because many troublesome issues are still facing him: Can Laplace really deal with so many demons?

Moreover, are these Magic Monsters all the Eliminators? After clearing them, will another wave be sent?

Angel also did not know what the ultimate situation would be, but he already sensed that energy fluctuations in the Void have stabilized. Currently, it seems that this batch of Eliminators should be the only batch.

Angel turned to look at Laplace, suppressing the waves in his heart, and asked softly, ”Can you handle these?”

”Are you asking me to deal with all of them?” Laplace frowned.

Ten or so might be okay, but so many, some with extremely obscure auras, it’s unknown how strong they are. Asking her to handle them all, what a joke?

If it were her main body in the Sea of Void Mirror dealing with these Magic Monsters, that might work, but now her power entirely comes from Shed Scale, handling this many Magic Monsters is absolutely impossible.

Angel nodded: ”Yes.”

Laplace frowned even tighter: ”Are you serious?”

”Of course I’m serious; I have basically no power here, so I can only rely on you.” Angel said, ”I know what you’re worried about; don’t worry, I will provide you with support.”

Laplace almost laughed in anger: ”You yourself said you have no power here, what support will you give me?”

But Angel wasn’t joking at all and said solemnly: ”Shed Scale. I will keep supplying you with Shed Scale.”

Laplace was stunned: ”What do you mean by keeping... supplying?”

Angel: ”It’s just as it sounds. You can fight boldly; even if Shed Scale gets damaged, it doesn’t matter because this is merely a projection in the dream, it won’t affect your Shed Scale in reality.”

”If your Shed Scale gets damaged in this battle, I can immediately return to reality and give you a perfectly intact Shed Scale again. Then, Shed Scale will be brand new.”

Laplace’s eyes couldn’t be described as merely surprised; she was shocked by the information revealed in Angel’s words.

”You mean... you can infinitely copy my Shed Scale from reality?”

Angel: ”You can understand it that way.”

Laplace: ”What about others? If not Shed Scale, what about others?”

Angel: ”Besides Shed Scale, I can also supply you with some Magic Rune Scrolls, provided you can use them.”

Laplace: ”Even Magic Rune Scrolls?”

”Yes, I know you have many questions. But right now, the most important thing is to kill these Eliminators. I will tell you the rest after the battle is over. I promise.” Angel glanced at the sky filled with Magic Monsters, speaking reluctantly.

At that moment, the first batch of Magic Monsters climbing out of the Space Rift came to their senses, and a shadow descended from the sky, landing not far away.

As the Magic Monster raised its head, both Angel and Laplace saw the monster’s form: it was a woman standing three meters tall.

Dressed in elegant attire, draped in veils, with a luxurious lace-edged folding fan in her hand.

The fan was opened, covering her mouth but unable to hide the sharp, grating laughter.

When the woman slowly moved the fan away from her face, Angel noticed her mouth was split open at the corners, reaching down to her ears, filled with sharp teeth.

Along with the woman’s strange laughter, a long forked tongue emerged from between the sharp teeth, looking both terrifying and bizarre.

Laplace: ”Is this... the Nine-footed Snake Woman?”

Angel: ”You recognize it?”

Laplace: ”It’s a legendary creature from the Humanoid Race in the Majestic Plane... However, in The Real World, such creatures don’t exist. They’re purely made-up creatures to scare children.”

It’s like the ”Grandma Wolf” story that Jon told Angel when he was a child, purely symbolic figures rather than real existences.

”These are all creatures of the Dream Realm; many originate from the imagination of intelligent beings in reality. This Nine-footed Snake Woman could very well be born from a child’s dream in the Majestic Plane.” Angel quickly analyzed after hearing.

”So, these are all imaginary beings?”

Angel nodded.

Laplace initially wanted to inquire about the traits of these dream creatures, but seeing the Nine-footed Snake Woman sharpening its knives against them, she held her tongue.

She knew now was not the time to ask for intelligence; that would have to wait until everything was over.

”If you can continuously supply me with Shed Scale, I have some confidence in killing these Eliminators you mentioned. Are you sure you can continuously supply it?”

Angel nodded: ”Sure.”

As soon as Angel finished speaking, Laplace dashed towards the Nine-footed Snake Woman like a cannonball.

Angel hadn’t even reacted before a huge explosion erupted not far away.

Even with slight wind support, Angel was blown ten meters away by the blast’s wave.

Once the explosion ended, all Angel saw was a twenty-meter radius pit of shattered crystal, and the Nine-footed Snake Woman broken into several pieces within it.

Having killed the Nine-footed Snake Woman, Laplace then flew ten meters into the air towards another descending shadow, raising her muscular leg for a powerful kick.

Accompanied by a series of explosions, another Magic Monster... dead.

After consecutively killing two Magic Monsters, Laplace flipped down to the ground.

At this time, Laplace had already lost about one-fifth of the scales on her legs.

Laplace seemed to notice Angel’s gaze and said lightly, ”The best way to use the shed scales is to make them explode. You saw the power just now.”

”It’s just that the exploded scales can’t be restored, so generally, I wouldn’t use them like this. But since you said there’s an unlimited supply of shed scales, it doesn’t really matter.”

Angel: ”...” That’s true, but you’re using them way too fast.

In less than two seconds, two Magic Monsters, and already a fifth of the leg scales are gone. Does that mean in ten seconds, all the leg scales would be gone? In half a minute, the whole body scales would be gone?

Even if the supply is endless, bringing the shed scales into the Wilderness of Dreams takes time!

Though complaining in his heart, Angel remained calm on the surface: ”Then I’ll go offline first... Well, just leave this rift space and get back to the real world, ready to provide you with new shed scales anytime.”

”Don’t worry, I’ll keep an eye on your situation. If things get critical, I’ll pull you out from the rift space immediately. Your safety is more important than the rift space.”

Laplace snorted lightly, without saying anything in response, and instead asked, ”Can’t multiple shed scales exist at the same time?”

Angel nodded: ”Yes, that’s the rule of this world.”

Laplace showed regret. Originally, she thought if multiple shed scales could exist simultaneously, she could bring in another Temporal Body. And her Temporal Bodies could all activate the shed scales, then the three could clear these Magic Monsters even faster.

”Then you can leave first.” With that, Laplace flew back into the low sky, as several shadows were rapidly descending.

Listening to the loud explosion of silver scales bursting above, Angel shouted with all his might: ”Besides shed scales, do you need any Magic Rune Scrolls? Or other weapons and items?”

Laplace: ”I don’t need attack-type Magic Rune Scrolls, but you can bring some control-type Magic Rune Scrolls. As for items, if there are ones that can attract Magic Monsters to gather, you can bring them in.”

Angel: ”Understood, I will try my best to send the items you need to nearby you, aiming for around twenty meters, is that okay?”

”Okay.” For Laplace who activates the shed scales, twenty meters isn’t really different from being within reach.

In the next few seconds, Angel saw only a sky full of silver shimmer flashing and the constant roar of explosions, while the shed scales on Laplace disappeared at a visible speed.

In such an unreserved situation, the power of the shed scales was fully displayed.

In a short time, she consecutively instant-killed more than a dozen Magic Monsters, the largest of which was nearly a hundred meters.

And when killing this hundred-meter Magic Monster, Laplace directly blasted a near-kilometer-wide crater on the Crystal Origin, and she was even using the ”Silver Scale Bomb” in mid-air, demonstrating how powerful the shed scales are.

Most importantly, the Silver Scale Bombs Laplace created weren’t even remotely released. Instead, she sprinted towards the Magic Monsters she wanted to slay at near teleportation speed, releasing the bombs right next to them.

If they were released from a distance, the Magic Monsters might sense them and escape in advance. But Laplace’s actions meant there was no risk of the bombs missing their targets.

And the explosions caused by these bombs didn’t harm Laplace at all, which was the scariest part.

In less than half a minute of watching, Angel was already feeling startled and anxious.

If Laplace used the shed scales so recklessly in the real world, she might be able to sweep through a large Wizard Family!

And now Laplace was using the shed scales separately; what if all were used at once? The explosion might actually injure those gigantic beasts in the Dream Realm.

In comparison to reality, Angel even doubted whether even a strategic-level defensive Magical Energy Array could completely withstand a full explosion of the shed scales.

Muttering ”frightening” to himself, Angel quietly returned to the real world.

Back in reality, Angel did not continue to Enter Dream but instead observed Laplace’s situation through the Gate of Dreams.

As soon as the shed scales were damaged, Angel used the Dream Conch to send new shed scales in immediately.

Meanwhile, Angel also pondered what other Magic Rune Scrolls and items to send in besides shed scales?

There were quite a few control-type Magic Rune Scrolls. Angel didn’t bother checking their effectiveness; he just sent them in first.

However, Angel was a bit unsure what to use for the items that Laplace needed to gather Magic Monsters.

If it were for a specific Magical Creature, Angel could make targeted decisions. For example, if the opponent were a Sea Witch, Gorgon, or Mermaid, diluted black dolphin gland fluid could be used as bait to gather them to the fluid’s location.

There’s also the garlic cage eagle grass, which from the name, you can basically guess what type of Magic Monster it attracts.

But this time’s Eliminators included all kinds, and Angel didn’t know what could lure them all together.

While pondering, Angel continuously sent more shed scales into the Crystal Origin of Dreams.

After a moment of thought, when Angel sent the shed scales in once more, he followed and entered the Crystal Origin of Dreams himself.

As soon as Angel came in, he was dazzled by the bright light.

Through God’s View, Angel discovered that Laplace had created a massive explosion high in the sky.

This explosion was like creating a small sun in the sky, illuminating the night-like world into brightness.

The terrifying energy fluctuations produced by the explosion were also clearly perceived by Angel... if this were in reality, even the Underground Aqueduct would be blasted with a big hole.

If it were attacking Angel... he wouldn’t survive either.

As he marveled, Angel looked around. Initially, the Crystal Origin was as smooth as an ice rink, but now, it was riddled with pits and depressions everywhere; finding a smooth spot was challenging.

However, Angel didn’t feel bad. As long as the Eliminators could be wiped out, and as long as the Crystal Origin of Dreams could be incorporated into their territorial map, no matter how bad the terrain was, there’d be a way to restore it.

While pondering, Angel heard Laplace’s voice transmit over: ”What are you doing here? I almost blasted you just now.”

Angel could hear the blame in Laplace’s tone, but also the uncontrollable excitement.

The blame was for Angel’s poorly timed entry, and the excitement was... the unrestricted use of shed scales, continuous explosions, continuous killing of various Magic Monsters, something Laplace couldn’t possibly experience in reality. Now finally able to experience it, how could she not be exhilarated?

From this, it’s clear that although Laplace usually appeared indifferent, it didn’t mean she was devoid of emotion.

In the clamor of ”explosion is art,” even Laplace couldn’t suppress herself.

”I’m here to bring you items. Didn’t you say you wanted items to gather Magical Creatures?”
