Chapter 830
The sound was not loud, but it filled the massive, glowing blue cavern. It was the sound of a bomb getting ready to explode. Elias Thorpe stood frozen like a heavy iron statue. His half-machine body was completely locked in place. The dark gray stealth-mana from Sikoa’s unraveled soul had flooded into the Planar Fusion Core in his chest. It had smothered the chaotic red blood magic and the freezing purple ash. But the magic was not gone. It was just trapped. Inside the thick, cracked glass of Thorpe’s chest, the terrible energy was expanding. The pressure was building rapidly. In a few minutes, the glass would completely shatter. The explosion would be a planar detonation. It would wipe the underground cavern, the ruined capital city of Glassview, and everything for a hundred miles completely off the map. Caster Spellbound lay flat on the cold, hard crystal floor. His body was broken. The massive blast from Thorpe had thrown him across the room. His ribs were shattered. His lun
Chapter 829
The dark gray stealth-mana did not lubricate the gears. It was too thick. It was too heavy. It was completely uncontrolled. It hit the screaming red blood magic and the freezing purple ash. The stealth-mana acted like heavy, freezing, wet cement poured directly into a delicate, fast-moving clock. The stealth-mana’s entire purpose was to hide energy. It was meant to suppress power. When Sikoa shoved her whole soul into the core, it created an absolute, localized suppression field. The gray magic aggressively grabbed the chaotic red and purple lights and violently smothered them. It forced the roaring, boiling energy to be perfectly, totally silent. The giant brass rings inside Thorpe’s chest suddenly stopped spinning. They did not slow down gracefully. They seized. The heavy metal gears locked together with a horrific, screeching sound of tearing iron. Sparks the size of fists exploded from the core. Thick, black, foul-smelling smoke poured out of the cracks. The red and purple

When Caster had pushed his golden magic into the core earlier, trying to balance the math, he had damaged the glass housing.The thick glass was covered in deep, jagged cracks. Blinding light was leaking out of the cracks. The machine was highly unstable.Sikoa’s brilliant, survival-trained mind raced. She remembered lying on the cold iron extraction table in the laboratory above.She remembered Elias Thorpe strapping her down and pushing thick silver needles into her arms. She remembered what Caster had told her.“He is bleeding your soul dry to keep his engine from breaking. The machine is mixing red fire and purple ice. It creates massive friction. He needs a lubricant. He needs your stealth-mana to smooth out the chaos.”Sikoa’s magic was stealth. It was the magic of shadows. It hid things. It quieted things down.When Thorpe stole a few drops of her magic, it acted like smooth,
Chapter 827
The pale archivist did not have much life force left. He was bleeding to death. But he had a brilliant mind, and he knew exactly how to create a distraction. Solon raised his heavy brass rod. He pushed the very last, tiny drop of his remaining magic into the clear quartz tip of the rod. He did not aim for Thorpe’s glowing hand. He aimed directly for Thorpe’s good green eye. "For the library!" Solon shouted. A small, invisible shockwave of pure kinetic force shot out of the brass rod. It flew across the short distance. It hit Elias Thorpe directly in the face. The blast was not strong enough to kill the cyborg. It was not even strong enough to hurt him. But it was like a sudden, sharp slap to the face. Thorpe blinked. He flinched backward, turning his head slightly to the left. The glowing red magic in his hand wavered for a split second. "Annoying bug!" Thorpe growled, swatting his hand in the air to block the invisible force. That single, split second of distraction was all Si
Chapter 826
The blue crystal floor of the massive underground cavern was cold. It was covered in dust, broken rocks, and dark blood. Caster Spellbound lay on the floor. He was completely broken. He had used his body to block a massive, explosive beam of dark magic to save his friends. Now, his gray coat was burned to rags. His ribs were shattered. His breathing was incredibly shallow, rattling in his chest with a wet, painful sound. He could not lift his head. He could not move his hands. He was defeated. Standing in front of him were Sikoa and Solon. They were two ordinary, frail humans standing between a dying old man and a monster of infinite power. Elias Thorpe laughed. The sound was terrible. It did not sound like a human laugh. It sounded like heavy iron gears grinding together without oil. It echoed off the high, dark walls of the Grand Archive. Thorpe took a heavy step forward. His giant, mechanical left leg smashed a piece of broken white marble into powder. Hot, angry red steam
Chapter 825
The red blood magic and the purple necrotic ash mixed together, creating a devastating, highly unstable ball of pure destruction. It was the same energy that had melted the solid stone fortress on the surface. And Elias was aiming it point-blank at Caster’s heart. "CASTER!" Sikoa screamed from across the cavern. She began to run toward them, ignoring the reality glitches. "Stay back!" Elias roared at her. Elias looked back at Caster. The madman smiled one final time. "Game over, old friend," Elias said. Elias unleashed the blast. The point-blank explosion of raw core energy was absolute devastation. A massive, thick beam of screaming red and freezing purple light erupted from Elias’s chest. It slammed directly into Caster at zero range. Caster’s eyes went wide. In the final fraction of a second, he desperately pulled every single tiny, remaining drop of his golden magic to the surface of his skin. He threw up a thin, frantic golden shield over his heart. The golden shield sha
