Chapter 66: Catch me if you can [3]
[It seems that they care about you, even going to so many things just to save one individual. I wonder why they want you alive, in any case, you need to remain your identity a mystery]
\'Considering that Kros is here with my body, I can focus on my goal, it\'s time to send that signal to the others,\'
Morris plunged his consciousness into his Mirage that was being chased down by a swarm of Npc\'s, Readers, and Homunculus along with the Avatar of The Mad Alchemist. he leads them to a tunnel and sealed himself within using Earth array that created a maze along with Mist array to blind his enemies once they\'ve entered into his vicinity
[System: you\'ve sent a message to a group chat, your message has been viewed by 5 out of 6]
[System: the forgotten sage is using its authority to prolong one of the player\'s skills, the skill Mirage has been granted a buff which increases its duration by 1 hour]
"Mana breathing overclocked, Terrain manipulation!!!"
[System: you\'ve successfully amplified the spell Earth array with 60 Mana, granting you better control and the ability to construct and reshape at will]
The Mana that was surrounding the area was immediately sent in his direction not long after he sends the acquired Mana into the ground which greatly amplified his spell while he adds another one in the mix. the first batch of enemies that arrived in his vicinity was met with a maze that he created along with the Blinding Mist, they got a little confident due to their overwhelming numbers and headed for his direction once they picked up his scent. without no knowledge of the horrors that they will experience from their poorly made choices, the ground suddenly moved and the maze was changed into another level of difficulty. the rocks that were far apart were now closed to each other once they kept on pursuing his scent they noticed that the walls around them were getting thinner as they progressed
[I\'m surprised you\'re holding on after draining your body with all of its Mana, I know that you were practicing a ton of combination spells some of them were easy to master while most of them could have killed you. now I that I think about it remember our first fight with the Alchemist you blew yourself up in the process of defeating him, after a hundred errors you\'ve successfully cast this one]
[System: the synergy between the two skills Free & Earth array are compatible with each other, you\'ve unlocked a new synergy skill would you want to fuse to unlock Glacial array?]
"I accept,"
[System: Glacial array has been added to the skill boxed Earth array and Freeze has now disappeared from your skill box, you\'ve gained an empty skill slot, and previous spell combination that\'s related to Freeze has now been labeled unsuable]
A chill could be felt as they go deeper within this maze the temperature was changing for the worse, it was freezing and the tight and narrow path they took only have a little bit of ventilation. making them trapped while the bodily fluids that leaked from their constant sprinting turned into Ice that latched themselves in their flesh if they were not careful in taking off those Ice would open up a wound causing them to bleed. with their remaining sense of reasoning, they tried to go back unfortunately the walls turned into a wall of Ice and shaped themselves into a spike that launched itself at the unlucky few that died of getting impaled a dozen spikes of Ice
while the rest died from the cold temperature
"That trick isn\'t going to work with the rest, it\'s time to be in the offensive zone, Glacial array Construct icicle weaponry," Morris weaponized the entire field with his deadly traps that we\'re able to kill a portion of Theodore\'s men without any progression he called for his vassals that were inside the base to accompany him in dealing with a certain pest that entered his domain
In a certain area where the scholars are being sheltered by the dilemma that was created by what they called a terrorist that was trying to stop them from achieving their goal to cure the infected. one of the people that dwelled in this room was Morris\'s body that was left by his consciousness rises from its slumber to monitor his surroundings after he heard Theodore calling for his vassals. with the success of his plan to drive away the guards from the vault along with the ones that were guarding the scholars he goes back to his body and left his Mirage in the control of his deity
"Mr. Gaia you\'re awake," Kros was waiting by Morris\'s side for him to rise from his slumber and was met by none other than his assistant\'s face
"Did I pass out?" Morris asked once his tone and personality shifted back to Gaia
"Yes, you did I have to ask you for something," Kros continued his request once he sees him nod in agreement
"I have been requested to help the others that might have been trapped in the room, will Mr. Gaia be fine if I leave?"
\'Wow, requested to help the others to be evacuated here, you have a good Alabi on you Kros. it\'s a shame that I can\'t kill you at the very least you were a good pretend assistant, I had a lot of fun,\'
"I\'ll be fine," Morris forced a smile that reassured him and immediately leave right after their conversation ended
