Chapter 450
“A dimension, it’s a completely new dimension!”
Just as he set foot into this new dimension from the Void Zone, Merlin felt a massive force of attraction, causing him to drop down in a straight line with no resistance . The friction of his falling speed against the air even ignited flames .
Luckily, Merlin had constructed the Fifth-level spell Enervating Halo . In the instant he entered the dimension, he had cast Enervating Halo . Thus, he was able to survive the effects of such a tremendous force of attraction .
However, he had no way of controlling his speed and could only helplessly watch the ground coming closer . At this point, he could only place his hopes in Enervating Halo and his durable body . This was equivalent to how a meteor in his past life would crash to the ground, containing terrifying force .
“Crash!”
Merlin finally crashed heavily into the ground, causing the entire surface to quake . The flames even ignited a few dried leaves on the ground . It was a good thing that the fire was not huge and gradually died out .
A deep, wide pit had appeared in the ground, surrounded by a ring of scorched earth .
Lady Phillie stared dazedly at the pit in the ground . She, along with the other four black-robed Spell Casters, had just personally witnessed a fireball descending from the sky and smashing heavily into the ground .
Moreover, the place where the fireball had landed was not far from them . It was a breathtaking sight which not many people had seen in their lifetime . Therefore, they did not recover from their stunned senses for a long time .
“Go and see what it is . ”
The black-robed Wizard at the front gave the order to another Spell Caster . That Spell Caster was somewhat hesitant but did not seem to dare disobey the black-robed Wizard’s command . Hence, he could only cautiously inch toward the deep pit with clenched teeth .
The mysterious fireball falling from the sky, and the mysterious deep pit made these black-robed Wizards careful and solemn . As the black-robed Wizard neared the pit, something unexpected happened .
“Swish . ”
A black shadow popped out of the deep pit, hovering in the air . It gradually condensed and took shape – it was a cat which was pitch-black all over .
The black cat swung his tail gently, his lush green eyes fixed upon everyone present, rousing a shuddering sensation in them . Following that, the black cat said in human language, “Alright, Merlin . Come on out . Our luck wasn’t too bad for there are Spell Casters here!”
The black cat’s human speech had astounded these black-robed Spell Casters . The Spell Caster who had wanted to go near was frightened to the point of quick retreat .
As soon as the black cat spoke, a fair hand slowly extended from within the pit . Following that, a young Wizard with handsome features, wearing a long black Wizard robe, flew out from the deep pit .
“Hmm? There are Spell Casters here, and also fluctuations of Elements!”
The young Spell Caster floating in mid-air was Merlin . He and the black cat Didimoss had entered this new dimension from the Void Zone . Under the effects of the powerful gravity in the dimension, they could not stop themselves from crashing down .
Fortunately, Merlin was not an average Spell Caster . Even a Seventh-level Wizard would find it hard to survive the force of such powerful gravity and impact .
However, Merlin’s Enervating Halo, in addition to Pandora Demon Ability Fuse Earth, had raised his defensive capability immensely . Most Seventh-level Spell Casters could not compare to him by far . Adding this to his durable body, he was able to endure such a colossal impact .
Still, Merlin would think twice before entering a new dimension so rashly the next time as it had been far too dangerous . It was not surprising that only Great Wizards were able to leave the Glorious Land and enter the Void Zone in general . In truth, it was because solely entering a new dimension was a huge challenge for Spell Casters .
Luckily, he had finally entered a new dimension successfully . Moreover, upon entering the dimension, Merlin had noticed that there were few black-robed Spell Casters surrounding him as well as the remaining traces of Elemental fluctuations in the air .
This indicated that there were Spell Casters here . A place with Spell Casters would not have gods . Perhaps this dimension was already occupied by some Great Legendary Wizard .
This was good news to Merlin . At least he would not have to worry about being discovered by a god in this dimension and thus caught in a risky situation .
“Who are you really?”
Just as Merlin was slowly finding his bearings, the black-robed Spell Caster who was heading the group asked in an icy voice . The black-robed Wizard was rather apprehensive toward this strange man who had just appeared with a black cat that spoke the human language on his shoulder .
Looking at the gigantic, deep pit, one could surmise that this mysterious young man was not that simple .

“Fourth-level Spell Caster? Looks like you should be able to understand many things…”
Merlin mumbled to himself in a low voice . He had arrived in a new dimension, and his most urgent need was to understand the facts of this dimension . Only after learning about this new dimension could he decide what his next step would be .
As he thought of this, Merlin did not even look at the other Spell Casters and raised a hand to point at the few black-robed Wizards before him .
“Hoo…”
The sky seemed to darken all at once . Merlin did not yield the Fifth-level Darkness spell he had newly constructed but only his Fourth-level spell . Even if it was Merlin’s Fourth-level Darkness spell, it was formidable to these mere Third and Fourth-level Spell Casters .
“Rip . ”
Fatal dangers lay hidden in the darkness . The other three black-robed Spell Casters, after descending into an illusion, were killed by the forces contained in the darkness . The powers of Darkness Illusory Death were something Third-level Spell Casters could not defend against by far .
Even the Fourth-level Spell Caster at the front was caught in the illusion . Luckily, Merlin did not plan on killing him, so he was not injured .
“Swoosh . ”
Merlin dispelled the darkness . The Runic Heartprint between his brows flickered unsteadily, after which mysterious runes quickly flew one by one toward that Fourth-level Wizard who was the leader .
This was a Binding Runic Magic Circle, which easily bound this Fourth-level Wizard .
“I’ll give you two options – sign a slave contract or die!”
Merlin retrieved a sheet of contract paper from his ring . It twinkled with a faint light as it floated silently in the air .
If Merlin did not have the urgent need to learn the facts of this new dimension, he would not have wasted a sheet of contract paper on a Fourth-level Spell Caster .

Nevertheless, the Fourth-level Spell Caster’s expression was shifting uncertainly . A slave contract… This Wizard wanted him to sign a slave contract . This was the harshest, most one-sided contract .
Once he had signed, his life was completely in the hands of someone else, and he would never have the chance to break away from the restrictions of the contract . However, if he did not sign… He had just seen Merlin immediately make his kill, wiping out his three subordinates without even asking anything . He knew that his opponent was vicious and merciless, a Spell Caster who treated everything with contempt .
In the fact of such a fearsome Spell Caster, he was merely a Fourth-level Wizard who had no choice at all .
“I’m willing to sign a slave contract!”
A smile tugged at the corner of Merlin’s mouth as he nodded gently . “Very well . Begin your signing then . ”
The signing of the slave contract went smoothly . The Fourth-level Spell Caster who was the leader declared his name and engraved his Mind Power into the slave contract, completing the signing .
“Very well . You’re called Darknight?”
“Honorable Master, I’m Wizard Darknight of Eternal Night Mountain . This time, I received an invitation from Weston of Tagan City to descend from the mountain to kill Lady Phillie of Boulder City . ”
Wizard Darknight quickly got used to his new identity, and his tone appeared very respectful . He knew that since he had signed a slave contract, his life was in the hands of the young Spell Caster before him . He must never ever provoke this man .
“You’re Wizard Darknight?”
Suddenly, a surprised cry came from the horse carriage in front . Merlin followed the sound and saw a noble lady with dignified airs as well as a young girl, clutched in the firm embrace of the noble lady .
“Master, she’s the president of trade alliance in Boulder City, Lady Phillie!”
As if he sensed Merlin’s puzzlement, Wizard Darknight cautiously introduced her .
Merlin nodded, following which he walked toward Lady Phillie, saying in a calm manner, “Lady Phillie, it seems like you’re very well acquainted with my slave?”

Lady Phillie still looked at Merlin with guarded eyes . Even though it was Merlin’s appearance that had saved her, after witnessing all that Merlin had done – how he easily killed three Spell Casters, and forced Wizard Darknight to sign a slave contract – Lady Phillie was even more terrified .
“Honorable Sir Wizard, Wizard Darknight has a grand reputation . How would I possibly not know of him? Wizard Darknight occupies Eternal Night Mountain . Under his command are two Fourth-level Spell Casters and over ten Third-level Spell Casters . They are much stronger than the forces of our Boulder City . I really can’t figure out – what did Weston do to persuade Wizard Darknight?”
Lady Phillie thought for a moment before she gradually spoke .
Upon hearing about Darknight’s forces, Merlin was rather taken aback . He did not expect this unexceptional Fourth-level Wizard to have such tremendous forces .
In Merlin’s eyes, Darknight was naturally nothing much but to other Spell Casters, Wizard Darknight was extremely frightening . This was because Wizard Darknight possessed Fusion Pandora Demon Ability, and not just one, which could be thoroughly combined with spells . Therefore, he was able to control the two other Fourth-level Spell Casters in Eternal Night Mountain .
Darknight would have never expected that coming down from the mountain to dispatch one small Lady Phillie, he would suddenly encounter an unexpected calamity . He had bumped into a powerful Wizard of unknown origin which was Merlin and did not even have the chance to cast his spells .
Still, Darknight knew clearly that even if he cast his spells, he was still far from being Merlin’s match . Darknight was able to sense an intense force of danger from Merlin, which was not inferior to the Seventh-level Wizards he had met before . It might even more intense than them .
Therefore, Darknight was able to decide so quickly and signed a slave contract with Merlin because he had no hope of escape at all . Signing the contract was his only way out .
Lady Phillie tightly clutched the little girl in her arms, warily looking at Merlin and Wizard Darknight . Countless thoughts spun in her heart, yet she did not know, how would Merlin deal with them?
“Master, someone’s coming . It must be Spell Casters of Boulder City!”
Suddenly, Darknight looked behind Merlin, keenly perceiving that a large number of Spell Casters were hurrying over from the distance . They must be Wizards of Boulder City who had sensed the vigorous Elemental fluctuations here so they had sent Spell Casters to hasten their way to examine the situation .
Merlin did not change his expression and simply looked at Lady Phillie with serene eyes . “I believe that Lady Phillie will explain everything clearly!”
Although Merlin’s gaze did not carry any hint of menace, appearing calm and unperturbed, Lady Phillie, upon catching his eye, felt a slight tremble, a trace of palpitation, within her heart .
