YM778.TV Chapter 88: Ambush
After two to three minutes, he seemed to have finally calmed down, with clarity returning to his eyes.
"Tell me-"
Right in front of Ray\'s eyes, the world changed.
"This…"
Ray was stunned on the spot but hurriedly used the space mastery to create a teleportation, tearing apart a small hole in this space, and the illusion instantly collapsed, returning him back to reality.
[Gene Synchronisation: Yuna - Space Mastery (Time: 10:12)]
"What happened?"
The moment he returned back to reality, Ray\'s gaze froze in place.
The black-cloaked figure had appeared behind Freya, her hand tightly gripping Freya\'s neck, ready to kill her.
"Ray, Ray, I really underestimated you," the figure said in an amused voice.
Ray fell silent, his eyes narrowing. "Stop acting mysterious; I know you\'re Natalia."
"How…" Natalia involuntarily froze, her mind racing to process this though because this single word revealed too much information.
At that moment, Ray made his move, stomping the ground and causing it to tremble. He then shot forward at a terrifying speed, aiming a punch at her head.
Just as his fist was about to land, a bright light shone in front of Ray\'s eyes.
"I was waiting for you," Ray said with a sneer.
"Lightning Arts: Lightning Field."
Electric arcs freely flew around his body.
Ray couldn\'t see through the bright light, but he could definitely hear Roger\'s ear-piercing cry and smell the burnt flesh wafting into his nose.
In an instant, a huge building appeared right in front of his eyes, completely enclosing Ray before being cumbled in seconds, the dust and debris falling to his figure.
But Ray didn\'t wait a moment longer. He kicked the ground and jumped out in an instant directly breaking the wall to look at the three individuals who were trying to escape far away in mid-air.
"Since you have come, don\'t try to leave," Ray casually created two Lightning Spears and sent them hurtling towards them.
The speed and penetration power of the lightning spear was immense, with the only disadvantage being that it could hurt oneself if not used carefully.
If a normal person had awakened this B-class skill, they would have to be extremely careful. But Ray didn\'t have such a concern at all.
The Lightning spear squarely landed on Roger, who was being carried by Elyon, and almost pierced his heart. At this time, Natalia waved her hand, and the lightning spear instantly disappeared from inside his heart.
"Cough, cough!" Roger violently coughed up blood, splattering it onto Elyon\'s face as he looked at Natalia gratefully.
"Thank you," he managed to say before fainting on the spot.
"You don\'t have to," Natalia replied, shaking her head with a slightly disgusted expression.
"Have you forgotten about me?" Ray grinned ear to ear as he landed right in front of them. His skin had already slightly recovered, but he still looked like a horrifying monster straight out of a horror movie.
Despite Ray\'s terrifying appearance, Vanessa and Freya didn\'t hesitate to embrace him, showing their deep love and loyalty.
The three looked at Ray with apprehensive expressions.
"Can you cast more illusions, Natalia?" Elyon whispered to her.
"No, do you think it\'s easy to create real life in a completely different space? As for normal illusions, they don\'t seem to work on Ray," Natalia said lightly, her expression hidden beneath the black cloak making it difficult for her to see what she was thinking.
"Why is a normal illusion useless to him?" Elyon asked, his voice tinged with disbelief. He had almost cried when he first saw the illusion of a haunted scene.
When he first saw the illusion made by Natalia he directly popped on his pants this is also one of the reasons he joined them.
If she had altered his reality using the illusion to form a different space, he might have been forever trapped in that place, doomed to die of old age.
And now, she was telling him that it didn\'t work on Ray. He was obviously unconvinced and unwilling to accept this in his heart.
"It didn\'t work on King either, back then. My normal illusions don\'t usually work on people who have awakened magic skills. It seems to be related to the mental power they possess after visualisation."
"You mean to say that this monster, Ray, has higher mental strength?" Despair clouded Elyon\'s eyes as he spoke.
"Are you done whispering?" Ray asked, a smile playing on his lips.
"Bastard," Elyon spat, glaring at Ray with bloodshot eyes.
Natalia shook her head, stopping Elyon in his tracks. "We surrender."
"Eh?" Elyon stared at her, stunned, confusion written all over his face. "Why are we surrendering? We can still use our trump card."
Natalia didn\'t waste any words. She slapped Elyon across the face, almost knocking out two of his teeth.
"Ouch!" he cried out in pain. Roger, who had long since passed out from the severe pain, was on the brink of death if he didn\'t receive proper treatment and couldn\'t even voice his thoughts.
"Look at the surroundings," Natalia said quietly, narrowing her eyes at Ray.
"Hmm?" Elyon looked around and immediately felt a chill run down his spine.
Numerous undead creatures—level one dogs and humans—completely surrounded the area.
Even more terrifying was the eerie darkness that cloaked them, a darkness that felt like the bane of all living beings, a force that nothing could survive. An instinctive fear of death gripped Elyon, paralysing him with terror.
Above them, a monstrous raven hovered in the sky, its piercing cry echoing through the air. Its pitch-black eyes stared down at them, radiating pure killing intent.
"This… this…" Elyon stammered, shocked to his core. His body froze in place, his hands grew numb, and pain shot through his entire being.
He was on the verge of a stroke from sheer fear.
"Oh, you surrendered?" Ray asked Natalia with an amused smile, completely ignoring the other two.
"Yes." Natalia nodded her head.
"Oh, not bad. You are quite sensi—" Ray started, but before he could finish, Natalia instantly bolted, her figure vanishing in a blur. In the blink of an eye, she reappeared right in front of Freya, her sword plunging directly toward Freya\'s chest.
