Chapter 279: Advancement to a Rank! The Thunder of the Swamp!
Scarecrow…
Upon hearing Ralph’s words, Brad immediately narrowed his eyes.
Of course, he had heard of this scarecrow.
Moreover, he had also heard from The Company and Ralph that the latter’s team had been wiped out because they had encountered this scarecrow.
Even Ralph’s extremely powerful legacy magic had not been able to do anything to this scarecrow.
Other than that…
He had been in the Black Swamp for a long time.
Therefore, he had heard of this scarecrow from Nikorei.
He also knew that.
A scarecrow that was valued by Nikorei would not be simple.
Moreover, he had heard that this scarecrow had been born for a very short period of time, not even half a year!
To be able to grow to such a stage in such a short period of time, it was obvious that he could not treat the scarecrow as an ordinary strange creature.
The scarecrow was very strange and very strong.
This was the conclusion he drew from the mouths of other people.
But no matter what.
That scarecrow was just a B rank strange creature after all.
It was not A rank yet!
As long as it did not reach a class, then it was destined to have an insurmountable gap with A rank!
In front of him, this scarecrow was not qualified to be on equal footing with him!
And now, what did this scarecrow say?
‘Those who believe in me will live’?
What a joke!
Brad’s expression was ugly.
A mere B+ rank strange creature actually dared to dream of making an A+ mage like him submit to it?
Where did he get the guts?!
Just as he was angry.
He suddenly sensed something.
He immediately turned his head and looked at the sky behind him.
His pupils immediately contracted.
He saw a rather large scarecrow holding a similarly large and terrifying black sickle, floating in mid-air.
That pair of huge hollow eyes.
Were like the sun and moon, silently stinging them.
But for some unknown reason, that pair of eyes clearly looked very hollow, but he felt a terrifying feeling from it.
“Hmph!”
The next second, Brad came back to his senses and his gaze turned cold.
Instantly.
A terrifying power emerged from his body.
The pressure from the scarecrow floating in the sky disappeared without a trace.
But soon, he heard Ralph’s scream.
He was shocked.
Then, he looked at Ralph and saw him looking at the scarecrow in the sky, holding his head and howling.
Brad’s expression changed slightly.
He immediately rushed up and enveloped Ralph in his magic.
After an unknown amount of time, Ralph’s howling finally stopped.
Brad’s expression became colder and colder.
…
Brad was not willing to submit.
Flanders was not surprised at all.
After all, the other party was an A rank mage. Moreover, for such a long time, his Domain had not been able to do anything to Brad. Of course, the other party would not submit.
However…
He was not willing to submit.
There were many who were willing to submit.
Not to mention mages. Although there were many of them, compared to the strange creatures, they were negligible!
After hearing Flanders’s words, the thousands of strange creatures had already given up resisting.
They all walked towards Flanders.
Their hearts were becoming more and more subservient.
The closer they got, the more sincere their hearts became.
At this moment, Flanders’s huge figure was floating in the air, and countless strange creatures gathered under his feet… all of them were countless strange creatures!
At the same time.
Flanders discovered.
The power of faith in his body was rapidly surging.
The power of faith was rapidly filling his entire sea of consciousness at a speed visible to the naked eye.
And in this process.
His sea of consciousness had a huge change.
Originally, it was just a piece of nothingness. It could be said that other than dozens of islands of various sizes, there was nothing else. It was very empty.
But now, after being baptized by the power of faith.
His sea of consciousness seemed to have become a real world.
There was the Earth and the sky.
The islands, big and small, floated in the air and became floating islands.
Not only that.
Even though the majestic power of faith had filled up his sea of consciousness.
But there was still a large amount of power of faith that was continuously gathering together and being sent into Flanders’s body.
His power was increasing crazily!
His life force was surging crazily!!
He could vaguely feel that.
His body seemed to be going through a huge change.
He looked at the ground beneath his feet.
He did not know when, but he found a weak connection between the strange and the magicians under his feet.
He had a feeling.
These people’s lives seemed to be in his hands.
He wanted one of these people to die now, and that person would die instantly!
It was as if he was the god of these people!
Not only that.
He also discovered that these people seemed to have a faint aura of their own.
If anything unfortunate happened to him.
Then, he would be able to instantly revive with the body of any one of these people!
Flanders’s eyes were filled with fervor.
This feeling!
He was about to reach A rank!!
…
Rumble!!
In the Black Swamp, there was a sudden clap of thunder!
Hearing the sound.
All the strange people who were here, or the faces of the mages, suddenly changed drastically!
They raised their heads and looked at the top of their heads.
“What happened?”
In their impression.
The Black Swamp was a damp place. Although it had always been covered with dark clouds, there had never been a thunderstorm… the damp aura in this place rose in the air and suppressed the sky.
However, the thunder just now…
All the powerful people had noticed it.
The thunder just now had directly split the damp aura in this place!
This was definitely not a coincidence!
Something huge must have happened!!
Almost all the strange creatures looked towards the sky at this moment.
Rumble!!
Another thunder sounded.
This time, everyone saw it.
They saw that the location of the thunder was exactly the same as the previous one.
They were even more certain.
This was not an accident, but a huge change that they could not imagine!
What was it?
Everyone was shocked.
…
At the other end of the Black Swamp.
The power of faith poured into his body.
After an unknown amount of time, Flanders’s eyes became brighter!!
“A rank!!”
“Break through it!!”
Flanders’s eyes turned cold. He felt an opportunity.
Boom–
As a loud sound came from his body, Flanders instantly felt as if a huge door had been opened in his body. It was extremely refreshing!
He had advanced!
He had advanced to an A rank!
And it was also at that instant.
The power within his body had instantly become several times stronger!
Not only that, he had also discovered that the massive power of faith seemed to be able to augment his attacks and strength, and its might could be stacked several times over!
Flanders was feeling the power of an A rank.
At the same time.
The black fog outside the Domain had already turned the sky upside down!!
