Age of Adepts

Chapter 0958 - Reinforcements

Fate Witches are a very evil and mysterious profession.

Their own great power is not suitable for direct participation in combat. Therefore, they are often invisible behind the scenes, like unscrupulous voyeurs, using the power of fate to conceal their existence or to cover up their own deeds.

Furthermore, there are simply so many aspects to consider and balance in attacking an opponent with the power of fate that it is desperate. Therefore, when the two Fate Witches were hostile to each other, the only thing they could do was to try their best to push each other into the Fate Vortex and use the power of Fate to kill their opponents.

However, since Alice already knew of the existence of the first Fate Witch, how could she be given such an opportunity? These days, Alice almost didn't move an inch in the Tower of Fate, and with the blessing of the Wizard World's bit consciousness, it also prevented the terrifying First Fate Witch from finding a chance to do anything.

Since Alice had retrieved the artifact-level prophecy scepter from the Faun Position, the first Fate Witch had lost control of Alice's fate trajectory on the premise of not being able to physically enter the Wizard World.

And this time around, the Enwick Dimension had become a treacherous battlefield for the two Fate Witches to compete for control of their fates! Alice is blessed with the blessing of her surface consciousness, while the mysterious First Destiny Witch has many backers and secret stakes, so with both of them fueling the situation on the distant Enwik surface, the situation is becoming more and more chaotic!

...................

This is a beast cave located 70 miles away in the western suburbs of Harkans city.

At this moment, originally entrenched in this huge cave, a family of five earth tyrant bears have become bloody corpses, by the knife Katy skinning and picking bones, set up on a burning campfire barbecue.

Katie struggled to tear the bear flesh in her mouth, looking at the gnashing of teeth, as if they were the wretched guy she hated the most. Almost in the blink of an eye, dozens of kilograms of bear meat went into her stomach, but Katie was still hungry.

In order to digest and absorb the energy faster and easier, Katie's stomach pouch also made some changes.

Not to mention ordinary food, even if it was an exceptionally hard and unusually hard magical beast nucleus or a magic crystal of pure energy, her modified stomach sac could crush it, dissolve it, and then thoroughly digest and absorb it.

As a high level mechanical sorcerer, Katie's digestion and absorption of any food in this body had reached an extremely perverted state. While an ordinary human might only be able to digest and absorb 10-20% of the nutrients in food, Katie was able to increase the nutrient absorption rate to 80%.

This also meant that for the same food, Katie was able to get much more energy matter than others!

Unfortunately, even so, with dozens of kilograms of bear meat down, the energy indicators in Katie's body that were approaching the red alert line continued to remain low.

However, the food energy she had absorbed and accommodated was quickly transformed into the flesh and blood energy this body needed, and began to continually stimulate and repair the charred and carbonized skin on the surface of her body.

As Katie sat by the campfire and feasted, her body crackled and popped with the sound of rapidly growing muscle fibers. The charred flesh and blood on the surface of her body began to fall away, revealing bright red and writhing flesh and tissue underneath.

The damage to the mechanical components could be repaired through mechanical sorcery, while the lack of flesh and blood tissue could only be compensated for by eating a lot!

Previously in Harkans City, in order to escape from Fire Witch Grim and Flaming Tiger, she had to perform her desperate skill 'Blade Storm'! And this, no doubt, had aggravated her original injuries.

Thus, when Katie escaped from Harkans City and ran here in one breath, she fell into a frenzy of eating.

And while she was barely able to keep her injuries from worsening, a strange croaking frog chirp was suddenly heard from her bosom.

Katie suddenly stiffened, hatefully tossed aside the bear paw she had been gnawing on most of, and probed into her bosom to pull out a fist-sized black crystal.

Katie tossed the black crystal in the air, then fired two red rays from her eyes*, hitting the crystal. This strange black crystal immediately began to spin slowly.

Soundlessly, the cave that was originally illuminated by the redness of the campfire suddenly became dark and deep, as if it was abruptly enveloped by night, and everything around it disappeared without a trace, leaving behind a seemingly invisible black figure.

"How's my...work...going?" Like an underpowered phonograph, the words coming from the black figure were intermittent, as if they had been vastly interfered with.

"Lord Fate Witch, you've found me a good assignment..." sneered Katyssen, "In the information you provided in advance, you only said that he was a recently promoted 3rd stage elemental witch, but you didn't say that he had a A powerful 3rd rank puppet, and a 3rd rank flame creature from a different dimension... with such strength, are you going to send me to my death?"

In the battle of Harkans City, Katie retreated too early and did not witness the stature of the 3rd stage Thunder Dragon Ames, otherwise, she would be twice as angry now as before.

As a mechanical sorcerer who specialized in close combat, she did have an 80% chance of winning against an elemental sorcerer of the same rank. But that referred to the normal situation as well. If she had known that her opponent would be able to easily summon a plurality of 3rd rank helpers, that Lord Fate Witch wouldn't have run to this bird-dead remote location to die even if she had been promised more benefits, Katie wouldn't have run to this bird-dead remote location to die.

So suddenly meeting the mastermind behind the curtain, Katie's frustration and anger these days was instantly detonated!

Seemingly enraged by Katie's untamed attitude, the figure's face in the deep black curtain suddenly burst out with a cold, indignant gaze. Whirlingly, a faint spiritual message flowed into Katie's mind.

"Katie, I don't want to talk to you. I'm draining Destiny to eliminate that little bitch's interference to talk to you, and time is extraordinarily precious. Your incompetence has already disappointed me greatly, and as a veteran wizard who has been promoted for 300 years, you can't beat a little guy who has been promoted for less than two or three decades..."

"How can I be blamed for this, it's obviously the information you provided that's faulty. That brat can summon two or three helpers of the same rank at every turn, how am I supposed to fight him?"

"Hmph, I've already investigated the situation you mentioned, and there is indeed something odd about that brat that even my perception of fate can't see through. Therefore, the previous plan must now be changed. You will guide the three Natagu to infiltrate into the Envic plane, and the three of them will take over the task of hunting down that brat. You, on the other hand, immediately go and kill the witch who is carrying the inter-dimensional teleportation witchcraft core, and never let her send the witchcraft core to the Sorceress Gauntlet."

"You... are trying to trap that male witch in this dimension?" Knife Katie was a little hesitant, "But how do we all get back to our own bits after the mission is complete?"

"Well, that's not something you need to worry about anymore!" That shadow said coldly, "When Natagoo teleports over, I'll have him bring a temporary interdimensional teleportation array, enough for the four of you to return smoothly!"

After pondering for a bit, Knife Katie felt that there was no more problem, which was why she nodded her head.

It was better to choose a place than to hit the ground, and without looking for a more suitable location, Knife Katie immediately began to carve a huge witch formation with a diameter of ten meters on the cave floor.

Originally, with her knowledge of sorcery, it would have been impossible for Blade-Kitty to grasp the knowledge of such a high-level teleportation formation. But she couldn't stand the fact that she now had a Grand Sorceress of Fate in her head giving her instructions.

Even so, it took a full half day of work before Katie was able to carve the basic template of this Teleportation Witch Formation all over the ground.

Originally, a regular sorcery transmission array should have chosen an area with abundant energy, cured and smoothed the ground first, and then etched out a standard transmission sorcery array by professional means. Among them, there were tens of thousands of sorcery runes and magic lines that needed to be drawn, and there could not be the slightest deviation in angle or orientation.

The slightest error would lead to the failure of the sorcery array transmission, and the guy being transported would be stranded in some unknown mysterious area.

With the cave in front of him, it was clear that the conditions in every aspect were not up to standard. After all, Katie wasn't a special talisman maker, and the witch array she had drawn by herself was crude and shoddy. If someone really dared to use such a teleportation array to teleport across the surface, I'm afraid they wouldn't even know how they would die.

However, as Katie had a powerful Destiny Witch behind her, with only a little bit of her Destiny power depleted, the Teleportation Witch Array, which had a success rate of only 7%, managed to send over three witches.

The milky white teleportation light slowly receded in the cave, while a choking column of smoke and dust rained down on the three powerful witches' bodies.

In order to avoid the elemental shields on their surfaces that would interfere with the accuracy of the teleportation, the three witches didn't hold up any protective sorcery, relying purely on their strong flesh* bodies to survive the entire process.

It was just that the three of them did not expect that the location of the teleportation was not some open platform, nor some secure and tightly sealed teleportation room, but a crude cave with a campfire burning.

In order to ease the burden of teleportation, the great wizard in Knife Katie's mind had also cancelled the sorcery protection on the periphery of the teleportation witch array. Therefore, the whirlwind stirred up by the teleportation ripple swept the smoke and dust together, making the three rank 3 wizards who had just passed the stun stage an immediate muffled loss.

Amidst a violent coughing sound, the three witches emerged from the teleportation array with grey heads.

"Dammit dammit, Katie, you bastard, can't you set up an extra protective witch array? Where's the one that does it like you?" The lead wizard growled at Katie in a furious, angry voice as soon as he got out of the wizarding formation.
