My Farm System: Reaching The Top In The Parallel Earth!

158 Chapter 158

Despite the fog in this small dimension, it was as if the Flame Wing Centipede has eyes everywhere. After the 4th rank centipedes fused and became a single 5th rank magic beast, it continued on its way to reach Rezen that was busy taking two gold coins on a floating island

The breaking of his spell naturally alerted Rezen and after he stored the gold coins, he look in the direction where the centipede was coming from

Szzz!!

Some of the fog dissipated as tens of balls of fire flew in the air, all of which were released by the Flame Wing Centipede

Since this entity is now a 5th rank magic beast, despite the fact that Rezen could still defeat and kill it, things wouldn’t be as easy

Aside from that, even if he did kill the centipede, since killing and sealing wouldn’t work then there is only one thing he could do

“[Earthen Projectiles!]”

Magic circles formed on the floating islands surrounding Rezen and they moved according to his will

He used these floating land masses to block the fireballs, sending bits of scorched earth in every direction

“[Drifting Wind!]”

After taking care of the fireballs, Rezen casts yet another spell. His wind-type mystic gem flashed as he formed his magic circle

This time, the [Drifting Wind] spell was not used to make Rezen’s speed faster. Instead of using the wind to attract his body toward the target, what he did was push the centipede away from him

The centipede was suddenly met with strong wind resistance, making it hard for it to approach Rezen

Rezen maintained this spell while his spirits collected the gold coins for him. Whenever the centipede would reach dangerously close to him, he would use the [Drifting Wind] on himself to increase the distance between him and the centipede

Since killing and sealing didn’t work then Rezen could only try to stall the centipede while his spirits collect the gold coins for him

Minutes passed with Rezen dealing with the centipede. Sometimes he would be attacked but he always managed to block or dodge

At this point, the spirits already went to all the floating islands and took the gold coins from them

However, despite that, the dimension still hasn’t connected with another dimension causing Rezen to frown

There is no way to tell just how many gold coins are there in a dimension nor where to find them

Now that all the islands were searched, Rezen originally thought that the dimension would connect with another dimension but clearly, it has not

While Rezen was in the middle of thinking, the centipede suddenly flapped its wings more aggressively than before

Crescent flames rapidly flew in the air like guided missiles as they only have one target in mind

Rezen used the land masses around him once more to check on something

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The floating islands were blasted into scorched pieces but of the tens of islands that Rezen used as a shield, none of them dropped a gold coin

He was trying to figure out if the islands were actually hiding more gold coins but it seems like the chances were low

There were literally around a thousand or so of such islands. The Space Monarch couldn’t possibly want the contestants to destroy every single one of them, right?

Of course, it’s not like that was impossible considering that Space Monarch talked about luck but he should still give those with bad luck a chance, right?

As such, before thinking of destroying all the floating islands, Rezen decided to put his focus on the centipede

Maybe… this centipede has a hidden gold coin?

Rezen’s eyes flashed as he jumped out of the floating island he was standing on. His feet release the power of the sun as it helps him fly in the air

The centipede in return opened its pincer to meet Rezen as if it wants to eat him alive but who is Rezen? He is not someone that can die here!

A human and a flying centipede met each other with the latter using its pincers to pinch the former to death

At first, the centipede seems to have succeeded as its pincers successfully cut Rezen’s head in half

However, in the next second, ‘Rezen’ suddenly turned into multiple black crows

The real Rezen appeared on a certain island below the centipede

“[Crow Illusion Substitution!]”

With a wave of Rezen’s hand, a nature element magic circle formed and from it, vines with sharp thorns came out

“[Vampiric Vines!]”

The vines moved quickly as they wrapped themselves on the Flame Wing Centipede. Rezen poured his power on the magic circle and have the vines issue a strong binding force

The centipede has a hard carapace defense and the Vampiric Vines don’t find it easy to pierce through that layer of defense

But with a help of a few more spells, the wriggling centipede’s defense was soon pierced through and had all the ‘blood’ on its body sucked

“Hmm?”

Rezen felt that something was weird and he approached the ‘dry’ centipede to fiddle with its corpse

He indeed saw a gold coin or more like gold coins as there were ten of them in total

After taking the gold coin, the “Flame Wing Centipede” bursts into a fog

Turns out that the centipede was actually not real. Their attacks were real but the centipedes themselves were not

Rezen was lucky that he didn’t continue killing or sealing the centipedes. If not, their numbers would just continue to multiply which would make things harder for him

Aside from the ‘centipede’ vanishing, the dimension also suddenly shook and from a distance, Rezen could see another dimension merging with the dimension he is standing on

This other dimension was a space with endless water. There wasn’t even the least bit of land to see

——

“Hahaha! I’m so lucky!”

In a dimension of endless water, a person with a human’s upper body and a fish tail created entirely out of water could be seen happily swimming

Greg is one of the contestants in Space Monarch’s Tournament. He grew up in a port city and he is also a mage specializing in water magic

If there are large bodies of water nearby, he could display more than a hundred percent of his power

Water is his turf!

Even though he’s just a 4th fusion rank mage but if he fought a 5th fusion rank mage inside the water, he has some chance of winning or at least escaping

He was one of the contestants that could be considered lucky. The dimension he entered was the best dimension where he could exert all of his strength

Being joyful in this scenario was to be expected. Although this dimension also brought a bit of a problem

Unlike Rezen’s dimension where you knew exactly where to find the gold coins except for the ones on the centipede, finding the gold coins in this large body of water is harder

The gold coins could either be on the ‘ocean floor’ or somewhere else in this large body of water

Still, with Greg specializing in water magic, it would only be a matter of time before he gathered all the gold coins since even if he encountered aquatic magic beasts, he could outrun them

That is until when he felt the dimension where he was shaking. A sign that it connected with another dimension

“Did someone collect all the gold coins on their dimension already?” Greg thought while frowning

He still hasn’t collected all the gold coins in his dimension but it was already connected with another dimension

This is not a good thing for him but with all the water surrounding him, he was confident that even if it’s a 5th fusion rank mage, he could cope

Greg continues exploring the dimension while raising his guard in case the enemy contestant found him

However, it hasn’t been that long since the two dimensions were connected when Greg already sensed danger

Magic fluctuations were picked up by his sense and when he looked behind him, he saw a young man swimming rapidly toward him

This situation shocked him as the water elemental particles were more docile towards the enemy contestant than him

“Wait are those… Mystic Tattoos!” Greg’s eyes constricted

It’s not like there were no Tattoo Warriors that were also mages that joined the Tournament this year or before

It’s just that they are rarer and Greg didn’t expect to encounter a Tattoo Warrior with the element of water

He was originally happy about his luck but turns out that his luck didn’t last that long

A water-type Tattoo Warrior at the 5th rank in this dimension filled with water… that is not something that Greg could fight!

There is no other choice but to flee. That’s the only thing he could do!

Greg urged his mermaid tail and he swam really fast as if he was a torpedo. Unfortunately, his speed was lacking compared to the speed of his opponent
