Versatile Mage: Angel of Time, but Emperor of Every Moment

Chapter 203: The Skeleton Tree's Weird Eyes, a War is Imminent.
Upon hearing this, everyone turned their eyes to the upside-down corpse.

Sure enough, a scarlet eye suddenly opened on the corpse's bloody head! That eye had no pupil, only a deep darkness that seemed to swallow up all light.

"What the hell is this?!" Someone couldn't help but take a step back, with undisguised fear in his voice.

"Be careful! It's moving!" Yuri shouted, and the magic circle in his hand lit up instantly.

As everyone watched vigilantly, the scarlet eye slowly turned and finally locked onto their position.

Immediately afterwards, the corpse's limbs began to twist strangely, as if controlled by some invisible force, and slowly broke free from the tree.

"Click - click -"

The sound of bones rubbing against each other echoed in the cave, making people feel creepy.

The corpse stood up in an extremely unnatural posture, blood dripping down its body, leaving shocking traces on the ground.

The remaining forbidden spells in the Temple of Freedom subconsciously wanted to cast magic to crush this strange creature directly.

"Don't move!" Yuri spoke quickly, with a hint of urgency in his voice, stopping the movements of several people.

"Listen to her," said old man Cavill in a deep voice. Although he didn't know the origins of this strange creature, he knew that a being that could make a master of three forbidden spells feel apprehensive was definitely not an ordinary being.

Yuri's skill in forbidden spells was second only to An Jing and Michael, so before the team dispersed, she was appointed captain. Her words still needed to be listened to.

Hearing this, the others stopped what they were doing. Although they were filled with uneasiness, they still chose to obey Yuri's command.

His eyes were fixed on the strange corpse. There was a suffocating sense of oppression in the air, as if even breathing had become difficult.

"What exactly is this thing?" someone asked in a low voice, with a hint of uneasiness in his voice.

"You just need to know that this thing doesn't belong to this world," Yuri said coldly, his eyes never leaving the strange creature. "If you had attacked us just now, we would have died here before Lord An Jing could rescue us."

"It doesn't belong to this world." Laksh covered her mouth subconsciously. Although she had cultivated to the level of forbidden spells, she still felt an unknown fear in her heart for this creature she had never seen before.

Her intuition told her that the monster was very strong!
"From now on, everyone should take care of yourselves and not emit any magical fluctuations. This monster will hunt you down based on the strength of your magical power!" Yuri reminded in a low voice.

Actually, Yuri had omitted one more thing - this monster not only absorbs the enemy's magic energy, but also enjoys devouring flesh and blood.
Once she spreads this news, the team will probably collapse in less than a second and become a mess!

Facing an ordinary emperor-level creature, Yuri might be able to fight head-on, but the strange existence in front of her made her feel at a loss as to where to start.

The aura was cold and strange, coming from another world entirely, completely beyond her comprehension.

"Captain Yuri, what should we do?" Laksh asked in a low voice, with a hint of trembling in his voice.

"Remain calm and don't act rashly," Yuri replied in a deep voice, his gaze fixed on the strange creature. "Its perception is extremely strong, and any fluctuations in magical energy will attract its attention. We must wait until Lord An Jing arrives."

The strange corpse remained standing, its crimson eyes slowly moving as if searching for something. Its movements were stiff and slow, yet they gave people an invisible sense of oppression, as if it would pounce on everyone at any moment.

"..." Time ticked by, and everyone stared at the strange-looking monster. A suffocating tension hung in the air, as if even the sound of their heartbeats had become especially clear.

Fortunately, the monster didn't attack them. It just stood there, its crimson eyes slowly moving, as if searching for something, but it didn't take any further action.

Yuri and the others breathed a sigh of relief, their tense nerves relaxing a bit. Despite this, they still didn't dare to be careless, their eyes never leaving the monster's figure.

"Did it...did it not notice us?" Laksh asked in a low voice, almost in a whisper.

Yuri shook his head, his gaze still fixed on the strange monster. "We pose no threat to it. It naturally ignores our existence."

"Captain, how do you know so much? It looks like you have fought against this kind of thing before..." Lu Yifa of the Japanese Forbidden Spell Society couldn't help but ask, with a hint of doubt and curiosity in his voice.

In the distance, the strange monster was still wandering around the skeleton tree, its movements stiff and slow, as if it was waiting for something, or looking for something.

Its scarlet eyes occasionally swept in the direction of the crowd, but it never took any further action.

Yuri was silent for a moment, then spoke softly with a sadness that was hard to conceal in his tone, "These creatures only appear at night. Once it's dark, they become extremely violent.

The body turns into a black mist, swallowing up all living things around it. Even forbidden spells will instantly kill people if they come into contact with it! "

"???"

After hearing this, everyone was stunned.

Even Yuri, who was proficient in three types of forbidden spells, had suffered losses in front of such an existence, and it was not difficult to hear from the other party's tone that
Yuri had no way to deal with this creature.

"So what you mean is that this monster doesn't kill us because it's not time yet?" An unknown forbidden spell from the Korean country spoke.

Everyone subconsciously looked outside the cave. It was already noon, and there were only a few hours left before the sun set.

"That's exactly what happened," Yuri nodded.

"We are here to hunt the emperor. We are determined to die. Instead of dying miserably, we might as well fight this monster!" said Carl from the Temple of Liberty.

Cavill didn't say anything, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

I don’t know which link went wrong.

In response, Yuri chuckled and pointed in a direction. "Do you think you can be faster than that, no matter how fast you move?"

Everyone looked over subconsciously.

I saw that behind the skeleton tree, a figure that looked almost human appeared.

The Emperor Gemini appeared.
