Giant Turtle

Van Basten, a level two dark mage, is not easy to deal with. →

Saine had already figured this out on the Alchemy Giant Ship.

"Gugu!" A shrill cry came from mid-air, and Little Seven, whose wings had been trembling, fell from the sky.

At the same time, a shower of Blood Rain fell, along with a severed wing and countless brownish-gray feathers.

Close combat always comes with its inherent dangers.

As a magical beast, Owl Little Qi's physique was already astonishing, but it was still ripped apart by the White Bone Magic Staff of Second-Level Black Magician.

Construct Master Yuli is currently piloting the Flame (brand) Magic Puppet, still fighting on the front lines.

Saine was glad that he had been willing to spend money when he invested in Yuli.

With Saine's full support, the Flame Mark Constructed Magic Puppet, while not exactly restored to its original peak condition, has at least recovered about 80% of its strength.

The heavy metal shell and abundant energy allowed this iron shell, which was over ten meters tall, to withstand the lash of Magic Power from Second-Level Black Magician time and time again.

However, Yuli never gave up. The bond between their souls told Saine that Yuli was also facing immense pressure and the threat of death.

That Second-Level Black Magician is no pushover. In the very short time since they started fighting, Yuli has already taken at least three soul attacks from him.

This is soul magic, and it has a remarkable effect on otherworldly beings like Yuli who are protected by Constructed Magic Puppet.

At this moment, Yuli was only putting on a brave face. Faced with the almost hysterical counterattack of Second-Level Black Magician, no one knew exactly how long she could hold on.

However, compared to Yuli and Little Seven, the ones who truly bore the brunt of the counterattack from this Second-Level Black Magician were the dozen or so Plant Creature that had gradually closed in on the encirclement.

This Black Magician is a tough nut to crack; he's probably the strongest opponent Saine has ever faced alone. (Note: The Sand Worm King Sand Worm King doesn't count, because he didn't intend to kill Saine at the time.)

In just a short while, three Plant Creature with first-level combat power were torn to pieces by the Second-Level Black Magician in the Green Cage.

This also included a level-two Plant Creature that was closest to the Second-Level Black Magician; most of its body was now oozing a thick, emerald-green sap, all caused by his close-range magical attack.

But no matter how great the damage, it was all worth it to gradually and completely suppress this Black Magician in a cage surrounded by Green Vines!

After the last gap was completely blocked by these Green Vines, Saine finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Perhaps due to being under high mental stress for a long time, Saine couldn't help but stagger as soon as he relaxed a little.

Saine's physique was still excellent, but his pale face and exhausted appearance at the moment stemmed from the fact that his mental and Magic Power Mental Strength, which had surged since the beginning of the battle, all came from the Azure Fire Heart Magic Staff.

The power and scale of the Azure Fire Eye Magic Saine had repeatedly repelled from the Second-Level Black Magician were beyond Saine's current capabilities.

Both his Mental Strength and Magic Power power doubled, which allowed Saine to withstand the pressure of Second-Level Black Magician for a short time and escape here, but it still put a great strain on Saine's body and mind.

Fortunately, Saine's physique was strong enough; otherwise, the aftereffects of suddenly unleashing such a desperate move that stimulated his body's power several times over would not have been limited to just a simple stagger.

The sounds of violent collisions and elemental explosions echoed continuously within the Green Cage.

Because these vines are so tightly bound together, not even a drop of air is released.

Therefore, under the isolation, the sounds and movements inside were also greatly reduced.

The Construct Master Yuli and the Owl Little Qi managed to escape and retreat the moment the Green Cage closed in.

Little Seven's wing was torn apart, including the broken feather, and there was obvious Dark Element corrosive damage, which could not be healed in a short time.

The Flame Mark Constructed Magic Puppet piloted by the Construct Master Yuli doesn't seem to be missing any limbs for the time being, but her current situation is extremely miserable.

The exposed muzzles of several cannons were deformed by the Element Power, and the entire body of this Constructed Magic Puppet was covered with pitted and cratered scars.

The appearance of this Flame Mark Constructed Magic Puppet was already less than ideal after the Poison Fire Green Flame World War.

Now, after being ravaged by a Second-Level Black Magician once again, it looks like a pile of scrap metal.

As for Yuli in the cockpit, her condition was even worse. Saine tried to call out to Yuli, but the feedback Yuli sent back through his soul was very weak.

Soul Magic isn't so easy to withstand. The Mirage Soul Codex does have a few relatively simple methods for nurturing the soul, but right now, Saine probably doesn't have the energy or time to take care of Yuli first.

Of the three level-one creatures present, Saine is currently in the best condition.

The Azure Fire Heart Magic Staff staff in his hand continuously provided Saine with ample Magic Power. Leaning on the Magic Staff, Saine kept his eyes fixed on the movements within the vine cage in front of him.

From the moment the Second-Level Black Magician was imprisoned within it until now, the Green Cage has been making a great commotion.

Saine didn't know the exact number of Casualties among the Plant Creature inside, but he could see that the intense elemental fluctuations inside the cage were not diminishing at all, and the entire cage itself was even undergoing local deformation.

Saine couldn't help but take out the packet of Green Source Seed that his mentor Luluman, had given him, pondering whether he should catalyze a few more Plant Creature to increase the suppression of that Black Magician.

However... before Saine's idea could become a reality, a violent earthquake suddenly occurred from all directions.

This was a powerful earthquake that swept across the surrounding seas, and the disaster affected more than just the small island where they were currently located.

Torrential rain and hurricanes continued to crash in from all directions, amidst the tremendous tremors and Power Impact that shook the earth.

The vine cage, which had been struggling to hold on, broke apart with a "rip!"

"No!" Saine cried out, regretting why he hadn't catalyzed more Plant Creature.

However, based on the intense tremors and Power Impact coming from all directions, even if Saine were to catalyze two times more, or even more, the Green Source Seed, he might not be able to withstand such a terrifying impact.

This power comes from the Ley Lines and the sea of Wizard World, far beyond the reach of humankind!

"Hehehehehe!" A hysterical laugh came from within as the Green Cage was torn apart.

At this moment, the level Second-Level Black Magician seemed to be in pretty good spirits?

Although he was forced to activate his Elemental True Body at this time, and the true form was less than half as complete as before, once he broke free, Saine would never be able to trap him again!

"You're finished, little brat! You actually forced me to activate the Burning Magic Secret Technique!"

"In the last thousand years, you are the third person to have driven me to this point."

"I will extract your soul and place it in the Bone Spirit Cold Fire to burn for two hundred years, until it turns into nothingness."

"Your screams will be the most beautiful and melodious music in my laboratory..."

Saine could sense the malice and hatred of Second-Level Black Magician from a great distance.

However, before Saine could once again activate the Green Source Seed to save his life, a huge head suddenly emerged from beneath the sea surface amidst the dark, hurricane-driven downpour.

The enormous head gave Saine the initial impression of being a snake's head.

Even in the dark and oppressive rain, a long black shadow disappeared into the seabed, indicating that this mysterious "giant serpent" was probably not to be trifled with.

But then, the familiar feeling of the earth shaking came again. Not only did Saine stumble and fall to the ground, but even the dense cloud of elements formed by the Second-Level Black Magician in mid-air was forced to descend by more than ten meters under some kind of pressure.

The earth is rising?!

No, to be precise, it's the small island with a diameter of one kilometer where Saine is located that's rising!

This was no giant ocean serpent at all. As the field of vision widened and Saine's Mental Strength penetrated below the sea level, he began to see.

To Saine's astonishment, the owner of the enormous head was not a giant sea serpent at all, but a giant turtle of an exaggerated size!

Even the "island" with a diameter of one kilometer where Saine and the others are currently located is nothing more than someone else's turtle shell!

A group of level one and Level-2 Creature fought fiercely for half a day on the shell of a terrifying giant sea Giant Turtle whose True Details were unknown.

Saine clearly sensed that the reason for the violent earthquakes and tsunamis around him was that his battle with the Second-Level Black Magician had awakened the terrifying Giant Turtle that was sleeping at the bottom of the sea!

What is the origin of this Giant Turtle?

The turtle's shell, exposed above the sea level, is a kilometer in diameter, and its surface is covered with soil and vegetation, which is enough to prove that this turtle has probably been sleeping for a long time.

The Fire-Breathing Dragon King, Demigod-level Creature in Luluman's laboratory, is only a few hundred meters tall in its prime.

This Giant Turtle is at least over a thousand meters long, and is probably even stronger than that Fire-Breathing Dragon King!

However, what gradually put Saine's mind at ease was...

As the Giant Turtle's head emerged from beneath the sea, he could indeed sense its anger—a natural reaction to being awakened from a beautiful dream.

But soon, after staring at Saine for a while, the Giant Turtle's anger seemed to lessen considerably, as if it had discovered something about Saine.

Immediately afterwards, the Giant Turtle's enormous head looked toward the Second-Level Black Magician in mid-air.

The once arrogant and domineering second-level dark mage, Van Basten, was now trembling uncontrollably in his elemental body.

Even his Elemental True Body was compressed and solidified, and his original appearance could be vaguely seen.

"Hmph!" A puff of resentful white vapor spewed from the Giant Turtle's nostrils.

A pitch-black shadow descended from the sky, once again completely enveloping the second-level black mage, Van Basten!
