Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy-Novel

Chapter 655 Interference

"A mind-controlling Spell?! Not good!" Marcus III immediately canceled his Runic Eyes' teleportation ability.

If he continued to release this ability, he wouldn't have the confidence to defend against the Psychic Art.

He knew very well that a mind-controlling Spell released by such a powerful Arcanist would be very strong. It was definitely not a simple Charm or Allure Spell but a spell that could enslave the mind of the target, and make them obey the caster's will.

As he suppressed the Psychic Art, he confirmed that it was indeed a spell that was forbidden by most of the Churches and even the Arcanist Bureau!The most update n0vels are published on Noᴠelꜰɪre.nᴇt

It was a spell that made the Order of the Oracle Hivemind feared by many.

It was a Slave Marking Technique!

"You wicked human! You don't even have Divinity, and you think you can control me?" Marcus III gritted his teeth as he resisted the Spell that was causing havoc in his mind.

Luckily, he had also practiced Psychic Arts, and he had a certain level of control with his Mind Energy… He tried to isolate the Spell that was invading his mind!

On the other hand, the man above the castle walls intensified his Slave Mark on Marcus III, hoping to capture him and make him his puppet.

He probably realized that Marcus III was a Half Immortal, and he wanted to use his power for his own purposes.

"You will not succeed!" Marcus III said as he looked at the man above him.

This was now a battle of their will!

Unfortunately, this battle didn't last long, as the Pontiff was suddenly attacked by the Mummy King!

Boom!

The earth trembled as the Mummy King struck the ground, causing the surrounding terrain to collapse in an attempt to entomb him alive.

Forced to muster all his remaining Divinity to fend off the Slave Mark and withstand the Mummy King's onslaught, Marcus found himself compelled to utilize one of his trump cards.

With a sorrowful heart, he made the decision to activate the scepter's ultimate ability!

Thud!

With a thump on the collapsing ground, the scepter started disintegrating and was turned into specks of light!

Marcus lamented the loss of his Sovereign Artifact. This scepter is a Sovereign Artifact that he had imbued with Divinity for over three decades.

Thanks to his dedication, this artifact obtained an ability that only Arcana could possibly have. However, it could only be used once.

"Miracle Catalyst…"

The specks of light flew out, and they passed through the Mummy King, then to the Dark Knight, then to the Ghoul Sovereign. They all ended up dying!

The Storm Knights who were battling them were certainly surpised by their sudden collapse but they knew that the Pontiff did something!

The specks of light were the essence of the Miracle Catalyst, and they could destroy anything that was, including those evil or corrupted.

They were the ultimate weapon against the dark forces.

After defeating the three summons, there were still a few specks of light that were left, and they turned to the Dragon Summoner!

Boom!

The specks of light were blocked by the castle's last Barrier!

The clash between the Miracle and the Barrier resulted in the Barrier's trembling and subsequent collapse, accompanied by the dispersion of the remaining specks of light.

Although the Dragon Summoner remained unscathed, the Barrier was finally gone!

"Oh… That's an impressive attack." Vale spoke as he also felt threatened by that light. However, he trusted the castle's barrier that was powered by the two dragons, so he didn't flinch.

Vale felt a bit pity since he wanted that scepter. Nevertheless, he stopped worrying about it and continued with what he was doing

"Slave Mark…"

This time, the Pontiff could no longer defend himself.

***

A few minutes ago, while the forces of the Church of the Eminence of the Sea battled against the Dragon Summoner, several figures were silently watching their battle from a far.

They were Sage Merlin and his three disciples!

"Master, I think we have to leave this place…" One of the disciples said.

"That's right, Master. We can't offend that being! That's definitely the Immortal!" Another disciple said.

"I'm also guessing that that was the Immortal and was simply hiding his Divinity. There's no human who could summon those three Undead Beings at the same time!" The third disciple said.

They were all nervous and scared, and they wanted to escape from the castle. They thought that the Immortal was suppressed by the Will of the Human Realm.

However, they were definitely wrong!

That Summoner was definitely a disguised Immortal! Although he wasn't showing any Divinity, it must be a trick!

However, even with the three's persuasion, Sage Merlin shook his head and spoke in a calm and firm voice.

"No, we will not leave. We will stay and observe. This is a rare opportunity to witness their true strength… We may learn something valuable from this. We may also find a chance to obtain their Arcana. But we will not act rashly, or recklessly. We will wait for the right moment, and we will act wisely. Do you understand?"

It seemed that their Master already had a plan in mind, so the three disciples could only nod and obey their Master.

Well, they still trusted his wisdom and judgment.

As they stayed behind their master, they witnessed an incredible scene.

They saw the Pontiff use his Scepter's ultimate ability, the Miracle Catalyst, and they saw the Mummy King, the Dark Knight, and the Ghoul Sovereign die.

They saw how the castle's barrier was destroyed, and they saw the Pontiff was about to succumb to the Mind Controlling Spell!

Even if the Storm Knights had freed themselves from the undead creatures, the three disciples knew that they would surely fail to help the Pontiff!

On the other hand, as Sage Merlin saw the Pontiff in a critical condition, he decided to act and save him!

He had a reason for doing so, and it was not out of compassion or kindness!
