One-Eyed Monster

Chapter 990 - 988: Such an Obvious Weakness

At this moment, the Soul Devourer Master felt a bit chaotic inside; he didn’t know how to describe it. Everything happened too fast and once again went differently than he had anticipated.

Although these changes might not mean much, they still gave him quite a shock.

He never thought these multicolored, dazzling stones would have such a function, and more unexpectedly, how this guy with the power of the Agent of Destruction could use such a method, using stones to hide Lightning, no, using Energy to hide Lightning; this was indeed an unexpected thing.

This Lightning stunned the Soul Devourer Master for a moment, but ultimately it couldn’t do anything to him. Although this Lightning was annoying, it had no effect. The Soul Devourer Master was not afraid of the Lightning’s attack, but he also couldn’t easily dispel it because the Lightning was the weapon of the Agent of Destruction, not within his scope. What he could use was still Energy.

However, this didn’t matter much; he didn’t need to have much understanding of this Lightning since it couldn’t stop his actions from continuing. As long as he kept releasing Energy as usual, no one could pose a threat to him.

He was just baffled about why this ragtag group was so emotionally charged, where did they get the courage to shout such big slogans when they saw no hope at all. Moreover, what was the point of this ragtag group launching such an attack on him when it couldn’t harm him in the slightest, merely wasting their own Energy.

The Soul Devourer Master looked disdainfully at the attacks from this rabble. Despite the varied types, they would ultimately turn into Energy. The Soul Devourer Master had seen plenty of pointless endeavors. Sometimes he too deviated from the principles of simplicity and speed, mostly because he wanted to play with his opponent, but these people, he didn’t quite understand.

But it was all irrelevant; as long as he could control the entire situation, none of it mattered.

With a boom, his Energy Ball and the Energy from this ragtag group collided, suddenly causing a huge reaction. This reaction was a normal response, all just distractions through illusions, be it a blinding white Smoke or eye-searing sand... they all affected vision. Though they temporarily hindered his sight, it would only be brief because this distracting Energy would eventually be devoured by his Energy, just a matter of time.

Just as the Soul Devourer Master thought, these illusions disappeared entirely in the process of Energy Devouring, as suddenly as it was natural.

This was precisely what the Soul Devourer Master expected to see. No matter how those guys changed their moves, they’d ultimately revert to being just Energy. He really didn’t understand what good it did them to exhaust themselves changing tactics like this.

The illusions blocked him for a while, yet the Soul Devourer Master remained unaffected. He felt that no matter what happened, everything here would become increasingly dull, the transformation of Energy ultimately leading to one outcome—the formation of a whole.

As the Soul Devourer Master, he was meant to tread this entirety to another world. How could he possibly be affected by these fragmented, illusionary energies? Impossible.

Nothing could affect his entire plan!

This little ragtag bunch, hmph, was no match at all; they were entirely the source of his Energy...

Wait!

What’s happening!

What’s with this young man with the Agent of Destruction’s Energy, why is he directly walking towards him.

Did this guy figure it out, deciding not to resist stubbornly anymore? That would be good, no need for further persuasion, and soon they could conquer that world together!

No, this young man didn’t seem to have any sense of comprehension at all; why did he look so aggressive.

The Soul Devourer Master suddenly felt that things didn’t seem so simple; he had to once again increase the frequency at which he released his Energy Light Balls.

Those light balls quickly flew towards the Resistor, resulting in decent effects.

Wait a minute, why is this young man showing no reaction at all? Why is all this Energy bypassing him!

Not enough disbelief!

The Soul Devourer Master specifically directed a few Energy Light Balls at Igor again.

These Energy Light Balls, as if with eyes, turned away when they encountered Igor, appearing quite repulsed by him.

Hiss—

The Soul Devourer Master took a deep breath, unable to understand this abnormal phenomenon.

What in the world was happening with this young man that he could automatically repel this Energy!

This was truly unreasonable!

The Soul Devourer Master observed for a while and found that this young man seemed unable to release any Energy either...

Could it be... the Soul Devourer Master seemed to recall something, so he quickly went to verify if it was what he thought.

Then he saw that skeleton knight who had long lost complete consciousness out of fear.

Before the remaining consciousness of the skeleton knight could emit a sense of terror, the Soul Devourer Master directly transformed into a big mouth and devoured the remaining consciousness of this skeleton knight.

After that, he understood what was happening with Igor at this moment!

This guy was wearing the Spirit Binding Net!

No wonder this guy couldn’t release Energy!

And no wonder this guy would repel the Energy Balls.

This Spirit Binding Net was originally an artifact of the Agent of Destruction, aimed at limiting the power of the Agent of Destruction. As long as it was worn, abilities couldn’t be used; if he, the Soul Devourer Master, wore it, he couldn’t release Energy, if the Agent of Destruction wore it, Lightning couldn’t be released. Of course, this was just one of the functions of the Spirit Binding Net; the Soul Devourer Master didn’t know much about this artifact either. It was something he kept to deal with the Agent of Destruction...

There was a significant difference between him and the Agent of Destruction. The Agent of Destruction was powerful but disliked confrontation; in the Soul Devourer Master’s eyes, this guy was just a medium for Teleportation now, useless for anything else.

Now this young man with the Agent of Destruction’s power actually wore the Spirit Net voluntarily!

This was divine assistance!

Could this young man be intending to send him to that world! This was truly an unexpected delight!

The Soul Devourer Master felt a bit excited; at this moment, he really wanted to open his arms and embrace Igor warmly!

To be honest, at this time, Igor was also puzzled about why this Soul Master looked so excited, completely lacking any sense of crisis.

Then Igor felt relieved because this also aligned with his expectations.

Surprising the opponent with an attack was something Igor always wanted to do. As long as the plan was followed, the Soul Devourer Master could be restrained...

Now both sides were in an indescribable state. Each thought the other’s weaknesses were quite evident...

Whether it was Igor or the Soul Devourer Master, at this moment, both were looking forward to what would happen next...
