Chapter 104: Chapter 95: The Final Ritual

But in the next moment, the Purple Leaf Rune on the ground was swiftly floating upward and flew toward Carly at a very fast speed.

Whum—

In Carly’s right palm, the integrated Purple Leaf command token resonated with the flying one. The latter circulated around Carly once and finally merged into her left palm.

The two Purple Leaf Runes resonated, casting a faint purple halo over Carly’s hands.

"My lord." At this time, including Gagarin, the two second-level Wizard Apprentices took the initiative to help Lucien start cleaning up the battlefield, especially the former student of Bennett, whose attitude was rather obsequious.

However, after the scorching from the willow man, the spoils of the deceased Wizards were mostly incinerated. Bennett’s storage ring had been completely turned into a heap of scrap metal, its spatial structure thoroughly destroyed, and the stored items were swept into the spatial turbulence as the space collapsed.

Only a few special badges produced in the secret realm seemed to have been retained under the rules of the realm, now neatly gathered in front of Lucien.

Lucien looked at this small pile of badges and couldn’t help but shake his head with a sigh.

After all, his previous conflict with Lilia was over these badges, and now the number of badges here exceeded even the survivors.

"Lord Lucien, we didn’t touch that silver command token inside the monster..." said Bennett’s student eagerly, his voice soft and delicate, as if afraid of saying something wrong and being killed by Lucien on a whim.

Lucien just nodded gently but did not immediately check the command token that had sparked the full-blown conflict between the half-Fairy and Wizard Apprentices, instead he looked toward the nearby half-Fairies.

"Mentor Lucien..." Carly walked out timidly, slightly bowing her head, and quietly explained what had just transpired.

The few half-Fairies were also nervously waiting for Lucien’s verdict.

Lucien glanced at Carly, whose expression was anxious, and gently stroked his chin.

These half-Fairies, including the weaker ones behind them, were a considerable asset in their own right.

Since Carly had already been transformed into a half-Fairy through a Bloodline endothelial transformation, retaining these half-Fairies and assigning Carly to oversee them might be a better option.

If their loyalty could be assured, in the future Carly might lead a group of Fairies or half-Fairies to operate a gigantic war machine crafted by the ancient Fairies.

With that thought, Lucien was about to flick Carly on the head with his finger, but considering the presence of others, he awkwardly withdrew his hand, settling instead for patting Carly on the shoulder.

"Since they are your recruits, I’ll leave them to you to handle."

A smile appeared on Carly’s face.

However, Lucien’s next words gradually erased the smile from her face.

"However, since you want to study Bloodlines and Bloodline curses, once we return to the academy from here, I’ll have the relevant courses prepared for you in advance."

"Hmm, right, and the corresponding exercises. Bloodline Compendium, Ancient Fairy Language Compendium... Basics of Curse Studies also need to be scheduled. Young lady, it never hurts to learn more."

Carly’s head drooped, making her almost resemble an invertebrate.

At this time, Gagarin and Brown, who were closer to Lucien, also heard his conversation with Carly. While they dared not speak or make any overt expressions, seeing Carly’s pained expression made their teeth ache.

When they had studied under Bennett or Lilia, they lamented that the teachings were too superficial, the essentials too sparse, and the prices too high. Yet why did Carly seem to suffer from Lucien teaching her too much?

Truly, a full man does not understand the hunger of an empty one.

The two internally criticized wildly, though they dared not show it on their faces.

The few half-Fairies now bowed their heads slightly, showing enough respect toward Lucien.

"The commitments remain the same on my end as well, Carly. I will provide protection within my capabilities, but you too need to make contributions, like assisting me in cultivating some magical plants. Of course, these are all compensated tasks, and I can trade knowledge or other resources with you."

Lucien’s words brought certainty to Carly’s heart, and although the few half-Fairies still felt a bit uneasy, smiles appeared on their faces.

After soothing the four half-fairies slightly, Lucien glanced at the special boy beside him, who had now reverted from his muscular state to an incredibly frail one, even appearing somewhat skeletal.

"Indeed, a unique Talent, but I wonder what innate mysteries it conceals..." Lucien marveled inwardly. However, now wasn’t the time to satisfy his curiosity, so Lucien quickly shifted his focus to the silver command token that was quietly floating in midair.

Lucien tried to use his spiritual power to pick it up, but after several attempts, he ended up failing.

Unwilling to give up, Lucien carefully tried using his bare hands instead, yet he still couldn’t pick it up. Every time he reached to touch the silver command token, it would subtly move away from his grasp.

"Carly, you give it a try." Ultimately, Lucien gave up on this unnecessary attempt and turned his attention to Carly, whose hands were faintly glowing with a purple light.

Carly obediently stepped forward and easily grabbed the silver command token in her hands, then showed it to Lucien. On both sides of the command token were engraved an immense wolf howling at the sky and a black two-headed dragon in a diving pose.

Clearly, engraved on the command token were the Moon Wolf and the Moon Dragon, two powerful magic beasts revered by the Moon Fairy tribe. As Carly picked up the command token, the faint purple light emitting from her hands cast a soft purple glow on the surface of the command token.

The command token then trembled slightly, and as it did, the entire Chamber of Judgment began to shake dramatically, and the floor of the core cabin where Lucien and the others were intensified its rocking.

In this shaking, a lifelike giant wolf statue slowly rose from the ground, and the markings on the giant wolf’s body were exactly like those on the silver command token of the Moon Wolf.

However, the statue’s giant wolf appeared to be baring its teeth as if it was about to tear apart its enemies in front of it the next moment.

"Ow..." And while Lucien watched this giant wolf statue, a loud wolf howl seemingly echoed in his mind.

The next moment, as space shifted, all the survivors suddenly found themselves in a void space, where the "floor" beneath their feet rocked intensely, nearly causing the severely injured half-fairy to fall into an endless abyss.

"Is this... a balance scale?" Lucien quickly realized that the ground beneath their feet was actually a massive metal balance scale, and they were all standing on one side of the scale, which slowly began to tilt due to their combined weight. Without action, they might all plummet into the endless darkness below.

In front of them, a giant wolf head appeared, seemingly watching from a great, immeasurable distance, as if a mighty presence cast a glance their way.

Buzz—

The terrifying pressure made Lucien tremble, his legs going weak, while some weaker-willed half-fairies and Wizard Apprentices even fainted instantly, with the stronger ones collapsed, clearly unable to move.

"Moon Wolf... ritual." Lucien had an idea. He quickly retrieved the badges he had just collected from his Space Ring and threw them with all his might towards the other side of the scale.

Ding ding ding...

As each badge clashed with the scale’s tray, they chimed clearly but then suddenly exploded, transforming into somewhat ethereal figures.

Soon, the other side of the scale filled up with numerous people, crowding it. They not only prevented Lucien’s side of the scale from descending, but they also slowly lifted Lucien’s side upward.

Lucien looked sideways and saw those figures transformed from badges, who now turned to look at him, opening and closing their mouths, seemingly emitting silent roars at him.

But by then, the balance of the scale was already thoroughly discerned, and the giant wolf head in front of them even revealed a satisfied expression. It slowly opened its mouth and then gently inhaled.

Under the gaze of Lucien and the others, the somewhat ethereal figures uncontrollably flew toward the giant wolf’s mouth one after another.

Then, the giant wolf’s mouth opened and closed slightly, as if chewing.

As it chewed, those figures inside seemed to emit unusually sharp screams and cries.

But soon, those sounds disappeared.

"Ow..." Perhaps satisfied with this ritual, the giant wolf head slightly lifted, issuing a long howl.

During its howl, the tray of the balance scale where Lucien and the others were slowly ascended upwards. As they were about to leave, the giant wolf turned to look at Lucien, its huge green eyes now like two bizarre stars constantly pulling at Lucien’s consciousness.

Lucien watched the giant wolf’s eyes, but all he felt was these pupils enlarging within his sight, growing larger and larger...

Boom—The next moment, Lucien felt as if his vision and consciousness were completely engulfed in green, followed by a sensation akin to a heavy blow that plunged his awareness into darkness.
