Chapter 1053: Fighting Chance I

“It’s a squad. It must be Azulon’s squad. Only Azulon’s squad might be able to challenge this Void Beast!”

Controller Caesar was staring at the squad vigilantly. He, too, hoped that it was Azulon’s squad. Azulon’s squad was the most powerful. After all, Azulon was almost at the peak of a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being. He was just one step away from becoming an almighty Major Cosmos Absolute Being.

However, Controller Caesar knew that the possibility of it being Azulon’s squad was extremely small. When the squad got closer, someone finally recognized them.

“That’s Sir Tyron’s disciple, Controller Merlin’s squad.”

“What? Controller Merlin? A while back, I heard that Sir Tyron has a new disciple called Controller Merlin. While Controller Merlin is also a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being, he’s just ordinary. How can he oppose this Void Beast? I’m afraid, even Controller Merlin’s squad would be sacrificed.”

Seeing that it was Merlin’s squad, Controller Caesar’s squad suddenly felt crestfallen. Perhaps, Merlin’s arrival would buy them some time from immediate destruction but after a while, surely Merlin’s squad would not be able to hold on. Then, both squads would be annihilated.

“I hope Sir Tyron will arrive soon…”

Caesar could only pray fervently in his heart for Tyron to arrive as soon as possible. Otherwise, they might not be able to survive this catastrophe. If two squads were annihilated at the same time, the barrier might no longer have any meaning.

Merlin got closer to the energy fluctuation. At this time, he could see the other squad. Merlin did not recognize this squad but Azulon did with a single glance. Frowning, Azulon said, “It’s Controller Caesar’s squad. I didn’t expect that they’re the ones who encountered the Void Beast.”

With regards to Controller Caesar, Merlin had not much of an inkling. However, when Merlin shifted his gaze toward the real culprit, the gigantic Void Beast, his eyes narrowed and he heightened his guard.

Judging from this Void Beast’s aura, it was much more vicious than the one he had encountered in the Polo Region. This meant that this was not an ordinary Void Beast but a powerful one.

Initially, Merlin was confident that he could oppose a Void Beast but now, his confidence hit rock bottom. Regardless, he had to stop the Void Beast and prevent it from breaching the barrier.

“Teacher still needs a few more days to arrive, so, we must hold on for a few days!”

Merlin said in a deep voice. He already received Teacher Tyron’s response that he was rushing here as quickly as possible. Despite the ultimate Major Cosmos Absolute Beings’ incredible speed, it would still take Tyron a few days to arrive. Thus, Merlin and Controller Caesar needed to hold on for a few more days. Otherwise, all of them would face imminent destruction.

Merlin’s battle vigor was gradually gaining momentum. Since he came here a long time ago, this would be his first direct showdown with a Void Beast.

“Boom.”

Merlin immediately wielded his Illusory World. Merlin stood in the center of his world, his entire body filled with a powerful aura. His voice boomed with irrefutable authority as he spoke, “Controller Caesar, your world has been seriously damaged. Please rest. Leave this Void Beast to me!”

Caesar’s squad was no longer helpful at this time. His world had shattered. Just one more blow would cause it to collapse completely.

Therefore, Merlin immediately asked Caesar’s squad to retreat and positioned himself in front of the Void Beast.

The Void Beast did not possess much intelligence. It merely acted according to instincts. However, it could sense that the people standing before it was slightly different.

Nevertheless, the Void Beast was entirely fearless, so it simply rushed headfirst at them. Its body was its strongest attack, sufficient to tear apart a Latitude Region, what more a puny world.

Merlin took a deep breath. Azulon already returned to Merlin’s Illusory World. At this time, Merlin’s voice echoed throughout the Illusory World, “This battle today will not only involve your life and death but it will also involve the safety of this barrier. Everyone, please contribute all your strength.”

“Boom boom boom.”

As soon as Merlin finished speaking, the Illusory World immediately began to shake. Surge after surge of overwhelming power swiftly strengthened Merlin’s Illusory World.

Merlin’s power skyrocketed. From a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being, it grew by leaps and bounds and soon reached the level of a Major Cosmos Absolute Being. However, just an ordinary Major Cosmos Absolute Being was not a strong opponent against the Void Beast. If Merlin had remained at the mere two thousand people level, he certainly would not be able to oppose this Void Beast.

However, Merlin’s Illusory World had reached its limit by accommodating more than three thousand contenders. Merlin was more powerful than Caesar and was equivalent to a mid-tier Major Cosmos Absolute Being.

As to whether he could block this Void Beast, Merlin was not one hundred percent certain. Regardless, he would fight till his last breath.

“Illusory World, suppress!”

Merlin mobilized the full strength of the Illusory World. The massive world immediately hurtled a suppressive force toward the Void Beast. Two petrifying surges of power came head to head at the border of the Void Sea.

“Boom.”

A horrible fluctuation ensued. On this side of the Void Sea, there was massive destruction. Everything in the surrounding area was obliterated. On the inner side of the Void Sea, however, it remained calm. No fluctuation could be seen.

This was the Void Sea. Everything was converted into nothingness, so it was impossible to stir up any fluctuations.

Merlin felt a huge surge of power wash over his Illusory World. This was pure power. There was nothing extraordinary about it except for its immense power. However, its power was completely inconceivable. Merlin had never seen such tremendous power in his entire life.

His Illusory World immediately trembled as if it would soon collapse. All the planets in the Illusory World were pulverized, leaving a trail of devastation.

This was merely the first impact. At this moment, Merlin knew that he could not block this Void Beast!

“It’s so powerful. Such a powerful Void Beast, even if a real Major Cosmos Absolute Being were to arrive, it still cannot be stopped!”

Merlin’s heart sunk. He finally realized this Void Beast’s formidableness. Perhaps, only the five top Major Cosmos Absolute Beings could be able to suppress this Void Beast. Anyone else simply could not stand against it.

At this moment, Merlin could not retreat. He had to hold on. If he did not, the Illusory World would shatter.

“Roar…”

The Void Beast’s attack did not manage to smash Merlin’s Illusory World. Moreover, it was attacked by the power of the Illusory World. The Void Beast appeared more enraged. Its gigantic form appeared to take a few steps back and then came rearing at full force once again.

“Bam.”

There was another violent impact. In Merlin’s Illusory World, every corner was exploding and falling apart. The Illusory World shook harder.

Fortunately, Merlin’s world natural order was extraordinarily solid. Despite all the chaos, he was still able to control the Illusory World and stabilize it temporarily.

At this time, Merlin calmed down. He carefully sensed the Illusory World. Due to the Void Beast’s violent attacks, Merlin’s Illusory World was completely mired in chaos. Nonetheless, this chaos allowed the Illusory World to continue to expand.

Initially, the Illusory World was only the size of a thousand five hundred over Latitude Cosmoses but now, thanks to this blessing in disguise, the chaos in the Illusory World was helping it expand at an unimaginable rate.

One thousand five hundred, one thousand six hundred, one thousand seven hundred…

If any of the other Controllers were to witness Merlin’s development, no one would believe that such an anomaly existed. Merlin’s world was on the brink of collapse yet it was expanding at a furious rate. Its aura was also growing more powerful.

“Unfortunately, there are no more contenders to enter the Illusory World. Otherwise, my power will be enhanced even more.”

Several ideas flashed across Merlin’s mind. Following the expansion of the Illusory World, its limit was also increasing rapidly. At first, he could only accommodate over three thousand people but now, he might be able to accommodate over four thousand or more. However, they were facing a life and death crisis, so there were no contenders to recruit.

“Crack.”

Finally, Merlin sensed that his natural order was breaking inch by inch. Although the Illusory World was expanding quickly, no matter how, he still could not withstand the Void Beast’s repeated impacts. Every single impact tore apart the Illusory World’s power of natural order. If the Void Beast continued to ram at him, sooner or later, the Illusory World would collapse.

If that happened, what use would it be for the Illusory World to grow at such an astounding rate?

Waiting for Tyron’s arrival was a fool’s dream. There were still a few days to go. If they waited for Tyron to arrive, Merlin would already be dead.

“Sh*t, Controller Merlin is completely unable to block that Void Beast.”

Controller Caesar grew worried. Even his squad appeared anxious. All of them knew very well that once Merlin failed and his world shattered, they would also be torn into pieces by the Void Beast.

Merlin spotted Controller Caesar from the corner of his eyes and an idea occurred in his mind.

“Doesn’t Controller Caesar also have a squad? If all of them can enter my Illusory World and strengthen it, perhaps, we might still have a fighting chance.”

A bold thought flashed across Merlin’s mind.
