Chapter 1158: Three-Layered Territory (Part 2)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The golden giant dragon’s breath caused the creatures that Agares placed near the pathway to be completely wiped out.

Saleen held the magic compass and looked left and right, and in the surroundings of the ant’s nest, he very quickly found the entrance of the spatial pathway.

It was a cycad tree, and the tree trunk in the air was the pathway. The cycad tree had been arranged on top of it.

Agares had not done much for concealment. Once Saleen found the tree, any other measures for concealment was meaningless. The hollow in the tree was about the height of a person. If Saleen entered, there would be no need for him to bend over.

Agares was testing Saleen’s courage. The tree hollow was small, so would he dare to enter?

A mage, facing an assassin of the same level, would they not be afraid?

Saleen shook his head and sighed. When he was one step away from entering the tree hollow, he was scared by the people beside him. Sul was the first to rush in, but Sika had waited for Truman to enter. Saleeen observed it for a moment and threw a green seed in front of the tree hollow. The seed fell into the soil and quickly germinated, becoming a vine. The vine’s dense leaves blocked the tree hollow. The veins of the leaves were bright red, like the blood vessels of humans.

Agares had not completely opened the pathway. After Saleen jumped inside, he immediately released the Myers Goddess’ natural godly power from the Ring of Gifts.

There was a severe fluctuation in the pathway, and it immediately expanded tens of times. Saleen proceeded forward. Sul, who was beside him, felt quite exhausted, and wanted to call out to Master, but did not dare to. He did not want to lose courage, so he released his golden sword aura to its peak, picked up his speed, and persistently followed Saleen.

Saleen glanced backwards. Sul would not be able to maintain the state for long. Saleen cast a power stabilizing spell on Sul. It was rare magic to decrease consumption, but it was not prepared for mages, but warriors.

After Saleen cast the spell on Sul, he did not bother with the other two and flew along the pathway. After about 10 minutes, they arrived at the space that temple was in.

Saleen saw that only ruins remained. There were a few gigantic puppets, whose glint in their eyes had been extinguished, as if they were in deep sleep.

The puppets were from the powers that counterattacked while the temple was being destroyed and had been broken.

The puppets had been broken, and Agares had no way to bring them back. He was an assassin. His method for carrying the large puppets would be to use scrolls to seal them, but he was not a mage, so the broken puppets could only be haphazardly thrown away.

Saleen looked at the collapsed halls, and his heart felt funny. Agares had learned from him and destroyed the temple, but did not know why he destroyed them. He did not want the Myers Goddess to be able to utilize all it to increase her power. Agares had not been thorough in his destruction. Saleen had no choice but to help Agares complete the job.

Saleen did not require help. He expanded his territory to control a radius of over 4 li. Within the territory, various types of puppets emerged and, under Saleen’s command, began to take apart the dilapidated temple.

The large puppets were also devoured by Saleen’s puppet world territory. The level of the puppets was very low, but it was better than nothing. Within the territory, nothing was left untouched unless it was an even higher level.

Saleen performed a detailed search, and was still able to reap some good rewards. Agares had not taken everything away from the temple. Most of the things he needed had been taken away, but some things that were too bulky or could not be examined had been left for Saleen.

Saleen did not require the demons’ help. He used the territory’s power to destroy the temple. The feeling in his heart was incomparably refreshing. It was a pity that he had not brought along the water fox, otherwise, taking apart her palace in front of the Goddess, it would feel even better.

There was also good news. The temple was not prepared for assassins, but for warriors. The temples in Cloudflow did not have specialized equipment or material targeted towards assassins. If Agares wanted to advance quickly, he would still need to search for other temples.Read more chapter on vipnovel.com

That was the conclusion that Saleen wanted to see. If Agares had obtained the things he needed, his speed of advancement would be faster than Saleen. Saleen’s talent was not outstanding. If he did not have the help of the temple where the flow of time was rapid, he might not even have been able to advance to level 10.

Furthermore, while being level 10, Saleen had concisely developed a three-layered territory. In the future, after advancing to level 13, when beginning to grasp the rules, it would be a huge obstacle. Other people would only need to comprehend one set of rules to advance, but Saleen would need to learn at least three sets, or perhaps even more. He had not yet formed a lightning territory. Once formed, he would need to understand all of the lightning rules. Only then would he attain an existence like the pseudogods.

Humanity addressed the level as level 13. It was definitely the shackles that most souls were unable to break through.

After passing through the bottleneck of level 12, the lifespan of all professionals increased sharply, reaching a level that made ordinary souls envious. It was a step towards becoming a god.

Even without becoming a god, a level 13 professional would be respected and admired by all kinds of souls.

From within a large puppet that had been devoured by Saleen’s territory, a tiny puppet leapt out. After the tiny puppet jumped out, it abruptly exploded. Before that, Saleen had not even felt any elemental vibrations.

Puppet trap: the assassin’s level 10 skill.

It was a pity that Saleen possessed a territory. The puppet explosion shot out thousands of fragments but were all blocked by the elemental creatures in the territory. A pan turtle reared upwards and blocked a large portion of the attack.

“Master.” Sul arrived at Saleen’s side, saw these changes, and said, “Agares is planning for you underestimate him so he can strike. If you drop your guard, the next attack will be fatal.”

“I know. Agares will definitely not stop at such measures. It’s just that since he did not obtain what he wanted from here, and he is not familiar with the positions of the other temples. He wants to track me, not to kill me. The might of this puppet explosion is strong, but it is insufficient to kill a level 10 mage.”

“Track?” Sika, the last one to arrive, was not nervous at all, taking her time to run over from the pathway at a steady pace.

“Yup, if I don’t spread out my territory and we want Agares to lose our trail, the his movements will not be able to escape my observation.”

“Saleen, you don’t want him to lose our trail, right?” Sika spoke to the point.

Saleen nodded. “Every time, Agares only gives the Holy See one address, because he does not want to let the Holy See know too many secrets. If he can follow me, then he will no longer be able to disclose information to the Holy See. The equipment required by assassins is Agares’ trump card.

From now on, if I don’t help him to find the things that the Myers Goddess left behind for assassins, the Cloudflow Emperor will be dying to send his army to protect me.”

“Teacher, this is also the only chance to kill him, right?” Truman asked. The task of taking apart the temples was completed by the puppets in the territory. Nobody needed to act. They only needed to remain at Saleen’s side so that they could learn from experience.

“Sounds about right. Also in the future, I may not necessarily want to kill Agares. He is an assassin, not an adventurer. If my level exceeds his too much, he will not see me as his target. Ultimately, our enemy is the Holy See.”

“Master, leaving Agares behind will be problematic.” Sul recalled that Agares had kicked him once, causing him to be kicked away from Saleen’s side, so he always gnashed his teeth in hatred, wanting to take revenge.

If not for the fact that Master was strong, he would already be considered to be a follower who had lost his profession, such a situation was a disgrace.

As a follower, the supplies gained from Master were hundreds of times more than the ones gained by servants or any other types of subordinates. Saleen’s expenditure for looking after a follower was enough to hire a huge amount of mercenaries, or to bring even more aristocrats under his control.

Consuming that many of Master’s provisions every day, but being incapable in the end, would always be engraved in his memory.

Saleen might be one of the best Masters. Although the battles were all very dangerous, the supplies were also the most plentiful, and every professional would be able to obtain the things that he wanted.

Saleen understood Sul’s mood and patted his shoulder. “Our target in the future will not stop at the Myers Continent. There will be many times when we will meet assassins, so you can use others to practice your skills. If you want to kill Agares, you will need a specific opportunity. His luck is extremely good, or at least for this period of time it is.”

Saleen did not explain the cause, but he already perceived it. Agares had probably gained the Goddess’ favor. An assassin finding more than two temples, and opening them all, could only be explained by the luck inherited from the Goddess. It had already begun to be divided by Agares.

Wanting Agares to die would require him to pay a considerable price.

Saleen used the territorial power to take apart the temple, and it was even faster. After succeeding, Saleen quickly evacuated from the pathway. The magic beasts in the forest had already evacuated from the area controlled by the Magical Element Tower. Saleen got into the magical tower and dispersed his perception, but even with this search he was unable to find Agares’ position.

In the magical tower, Saleen’s perception was expanded by at least six times, and now his perception overlapped with his territory. That meant that in the Magical Element Tower, Saleen would be able to detect professionals at the same level or below at a distance of 24 li.

It looked like Agares possessed a godly item. He was able to hide himself from a scan that used territorial power.

Saleen did not find it unexpected at all. A strong assassin would inevitably possess equipment with such properties. Otherwise, upon reaching level 9, any profession’s perception would be able to expand to a very big range. An assassin’s attack power could only be used at short ranges. If others held them back by one li, how could they still be considered an assassin?

It looked like he would have to start playing hide and seek with Agares.
