The Genius Mage

Chapter 439: Plunder

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“I didn’t focus on plundering the holy artifacts. It was a strategic mistake when I attacked Spark City!”

Austin timely reflected, but it was too late. Audrey took out two great treasures of heaven and earth. The moment she revealed them, the magic in Austin’s body had already melted.

Even his soul was burned as if his body was being roasted over charcoal.

“Former City Lord, I’m really sorry. The Moonbeam belongs to our Spark City! You can’t take it away!”

Austin narrowed his eyes suspiciously, like a cunning hamster, preparing to escape first.

After all, there was always hope! The failure of this attack on Spark City was already an indisputable settlement. From the moment Audrey obtained the holy artifact, Austin was destined to escape in a panic.

“You want to escape? You bastards from the Carol Association, don’t even think about escaping!”

At the thought of letting the Carol Association go, the Carol Association would definitely make a comeback. When they let down their guard, Audrey and the others might not have the chance to use the holy artifact to seize the initiative like this time.

“Not good, he’s disappeared! If Austin escapes, I’m afraid he’ll make a comeback. It won’t be easy…”

Because Austin was the former City Lord, Lance knew many of Spark City’s secrets, and he was the one who told him.

Since Austin had clearly planned to rebel, the power in Spark City was in imminent danger!

Austin had the ability to put his people in Spark City, and then disintegrate the power in Spark City one by one for him to use!

“It’s alright. My magic has already branded his soul!”

Even if Austin escaped to the ends of the earth, it would be useless! Audrey had the ability to chase him back!

At that moment, Audrey had already flown out. Magic was circulating in her body, and all of her hair had fallen down.

It was Lance who reminded her and handed her a thin ribbon. Audrey hurriedly thanked him and chased after him.

“Hahaha, it’s just you and me now, Lance! We meet again. You should be happy to see me. Death isn’t scary. That’s the beginning of another life.”

It turned out that the soul Audrey chased after was only a clone of Austin. Austin used a secret spell to condense the demonic Qi into a point. Then, he injected the compressed demonic Qi and the brand into the clone.

As for Austin, he could only use his combat aura. The only thing that Audrey could not do was to fuse her magic into her combat aura. This was because these two types of energy could be converted into each other. However, they were two completely different types and attributes!

Damn it! I must not let Austin succeed. Moonbeam is now in my hands. It was too dangerous!

Lance used an inaudible method to press the hidden mechanism in the bedroom. As long as he could delay Austin’s time, Lance was confident that he could send Moonbeam out!

“Why did you resign from your previous position as the City Lord? Why did you make a comeback? It was only to seize Spark City. What is the meaning of all these actions to you?!”

Previously, the Carol Association would only be a petty thief in Spark City. At the very least, he would still abide by the rules of Spark City. Therefore, Lance turned a blind eye to it and pretended that there was a small-scale riot in the city. He did not pay attention to it.

However, Austin’s subordinates were getting more and more outrageous! Lance could not take it anymore. Only then did he gradually investigate Austin’s wolf-like ambitions.

What was the purpose of all this? Lance felt that Austin did not need to go through all these twists and turns. Even if it was to fight for the position of City Lord with Lance himself, it would be a more convenient way.

Unless…Lance’s eyes suddenly lit up. He knew that Austin wanted to rebel against the regime!

“In short, this Moonbeam is mine! Whether it’s Audrey or you, Lance, die in my hands!”

Austin did not give Lance any chance at all. Under Lance’s nervous gaze, Austin stretched out a claw in the air and clawed at Lance!

Lance had used the highest-level combat technique that he was best at so far because he did not take any medicine.

In front of Austin, it was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. The illusion formed by his fighting spirit was instantly pierced through by the demonic energy!

The demonic energy then turned into a thin and long rope and wrapped around Lance’s neck.

Lance’s neck was instantly suffocated. Even if he used all his strength and used his fighting spirit to hit the rope, he did not move at all. This was the first time Lance felt despair.

“Hand over Moonbeam! I’ll spare your life! Otherwise…”

With a gesture, Austin’s hand was already whirling with cold demonic Qi and was attacking lance. With this slap, Lance’s head would probably be separated from his body.

At this critical moment, Lance could only be forced to reveal his location.

Moonbeam was in his strange space. Lance’s combat aura had sealed it. If it was not for the special combat aura, it would not be able to open it.

“Then open it now!”

Austin’s urgent voice was filled with anticipation. His eyes were wide open as if he was about to drool.

Lance took the Moonbeam out of the space. Because it was still in a deep sleep, Lance could not fuse with it, nor could he use its power.

When Lance’s team picked it up, one of their combat Qi had hurt the holy artifact, so the holy artifact would only be injured from now on.

“Very well, leave it to me.”

Lance handed the holy artifact to Austin, and just as Austin took it with a trembling hand.

Suddenly, the city gate opened.. Audrey stepped in and happened to see this scene.
