Wizard: Unlimited Profession Slots Chapter 1182 - 483_3
Previously on Wizard: Unlimited Profession Slots...
The four pillars of light began to resonate. At their convergence point, the fundamental structure of reality started to be fundamentally reconstructed.
Space tore open like paper, revealing the imaginary dimensions hidden behind reality.
"Let’s go."
The four Great Wizards simultaneously stepped into the fissure, disappearing from the real world.
......
"Now, let’s talk about that deal."
Cassandra’s voice echoed in the imaginary space, each syllable heavy and substantial.
Ash’s anger erupted like a wildfire, her ancient voice carrying the fury of betrayal:
"Cassandra! You accepted the three-thousand-year-old ’World Tree Essence’ we provided, promising not to interfere during this ritual!"
"Yet now you reneged, disrupting our academic research! Such betrayal violates the fundamental spirit of the Wizard World’s contracts!"
Dariu’s mechanical voice also carried an angry metallic tremor:
"Agreement record confirmed... The other party has received: ×500 vials of Life-Extending Serum, complete data on Neural Reconstruction Technology, and permissions for organ cultivation..."
"Violation confirmed... Demand immediate return of all benefits and to bear corresponding losses..."
Seraphina’s voice was the coldest:
"And the core technology of the ’Soul Purification Ritual’ we provided, as well as those precious experimental subjects... You accepted them all, yet now you want to betray the agreement?"
"Cassandra, even if you have grown to such an extent, you cannot trample on the sanctity of contracts in this way!"
Faced with the collective condemnation of the three Great Wizards, Cassandra was silent for just a moment.
"Contract?"
Her voice carried undisguised disdain:
"You misunderstood something very important."
"I never signed any formal non-interference agreement; I merely accepted your ’gifts,’ nothing more."
"Gifts and transactions are two entirely different concepts, are they not?"
This blunt bandit logic caused the three Great Wizards to feel deep anger.
But Cassandra didn’t give them the opportunity to continue arguing:
"Moreover, even if there truly was some agreement..."
Her eyes ignited with purple flame, her voice turning cold as ice:
"In the face of absolute power, all contracts are no more than waste paper."
"Now, let me redefine our relationship."
The battle erupted without any warning.
In the imaginary space, the clash of wills is the most direct form of attack.
Ash launched the first attack, countless emerald roots shooting toward Cassandra like a flurry of arrows.
Dariu’s attack was more direct: dozens of mechanical arms simultaneously swung, spraying out experimental serums of various colors.
These serums formed a multicolored toxic cloud in mid-air, each color representing different biochemical weapons:
Neurotoxins, blood coagulants, cell decomposing enzymes, gene recombination viruses...
Seraphina’s attack was the most insidious, releasing countless spiritual shockwaves, aiming to directly attack Cassandra’s consciousness core.
The triple attack almost arrived simultaneously; normally, even a Great Wizard of the same level would find it difficult to handle such a dense, compound attack all at once.
But the "Abyss of Greed" reaction left everyone shocked.
The black hole structure on her chest began to spin rapidly, generating a terrifying gravitational field.
"What?"
Ash was horrified to discover her root attack, upon contact with that black hole, melted away like ice meeting raging fire:
"She’s devouring our attack?"
Dariu’s situation was even worse; those meticulously modulated biochemical weapons were not only completely neutralized.
They even began to reverse flow, being continuously absorbed by that black hole.
"Alert... Energy loss... System overload..."
His mechanical eye flashed red, the core processor beginning to sound an overheating alarm:
"Target’s devouring capability exceeds theoretical limits... Suggest immediate retreat..."
The most despairing was Seraphina’s spiritual attack.
Those lethal shocks, meant to act directly on the consciousness, were also completely devoured upon touching the "Abyss of Greed."
This devouring process continuously back-strengthened Cassandra’s Void Remains.
With each bit of attack devoured, the scale of the black hole expanded, and the intensity of the gravitational field increased.
"Do you understand now?"
Cassandra’s voice was like a death sentence, cold and indisputable:
"In the face of absolute power, numerical superiority is meaningless."
The "Abyss of Greed" began to actively attack; the black hole’s gravitational field was no longer passive defense but shifted to an active attack mode.
The invisible devouring force spread out like a tide in three directions, directly drawing the essence energy from the Void Remains of the three Great Wizards.
"No... something’s not right..."
Ash felt her life energy being stripped away by an irresistible force:
"How could the Void Remains be devoured? This violates the basic power system..."
But reality gave her a harsh answer.
In front of the "Abyss of Greed," even the Void Remains of Great Wizards were nothing more than richer food.
The battle in the imaginary space ended in a way that was both shocking and conclusive.
Ash’s "Emerald Crown" Void Remains was the first to begin collapsing.
Those gigantic roots, symbolizing the cycle of life and the great power of nature, were as fragile as withered grass before the "Abyss of Greed."
With each pulse of the black hole, a part of her Void Remains’ essence was stripped away.
"This devouring...is not simple energy plundering..."
Deep fear surged in Ash’s ancient consciousness:
"She is rewriting our fundamental definition of existence...redefining us from ’life’ to ’food’..."
When the "Emerald Crown" was redefined as "nutritional material," all its defensive capabilities lost their meaning.
Dariu’s situation was even more tragic.
As a semi-mechanized being, his Void Remains should have had a stronger resistance to such conceptual attacks.
But the horror of the "Abyss of Greed" lies in its ability to devour all forms of existence, whether flesh, machinery, or pure consciousness.
"Alert... Existence basis being redefined... Core logic is being overwritten..."
Dariu’s mechanical brain sent out a final distress signal but was soon overwhelmed by that irresistible hunger:
"I am... I am food... My purpose of existence is to be devoured..."
The most despairing of all was that this redefinition process also produced a distorted pleasure.
The devoured would experience false joy of integrating into a higher level of existence while their rationale crumbled.
This pleasure was stronger than any drug, prompting victims to actively cooperate in their own destruction amidst agony.
Seraphina tried to mount a final counterattack.
But when the attack touched the "Abyss of Greed," it produced an entirely unexpected result.
The black hole not only devoured the attack itself but also converted it into reinforcement.
Her killer move, instead, made Cassandra’s Void Remains more complete.
"Do you not understand yet?"
Cassandra’s voice echoed in the imaginary space:
"In the face of ’absolute greed,’ any form of resistance only becomes seasoning for the meal."
"Your anger, your fear, your despair, even your counterattack, are all parts of my power."
With the final pulse of devouring, the Void Remains of the three Great Wizards let out a simultaneous wail of despair.
Though not completely destroyed, they suffered essential injuries.
According to the restoration rules of Great Wizards’ Void Remains, it would take them at least several decades of deep meditation to fully restore these damages.
And during this time, their actual combat power would be significantly reduced.
"Now, let’s return to the material world to discuss... the details of further cooperation."
Cassandra’s tone returned to being relaxed, as if the recent crushing defeat was merely a friendly spar:
"I’m sure after this exchange, you all have a deeper understanding of my sincerity."
