《Night Ranger》Chapter 546. Ruler Ability

[Witchcraft – Ashes]!
This was the Witchcraft that Hathaway was the most proficient with and also the first Witchcraft she had understood.
That was the origin of her epithet, Ashes Witch.
Ashes Storm was the Universe's most destructive power. With a sufficiently capable caster, it could kill even a sturdy Astral Beast!
Soon, the overgrown ivy was all torn apart!
Miss Silvermoon's body was also starting to seem extremely sinister.
She looked up, letting out a roar that shook the entire dungeon.
The Ashes Storm tore apart her entire body. First went her skin, and then her flesh, followed by her bones starting to melt!
From the side, Marvin was completely speechless while he watched from within his Eternal Night Seal.
[Witchcraft – Ashes] was far stronger than Legendary Spells!
That ability was apparently immune to the restriction of Divine Laws!
Even if Marvin didn't die from touching that thing, he would certainly still be left on the verge of death!
Miss Silvermoon's body was very resilient. She was an Ancient God, after all!
Even though it was more fragile after just being revived, it wasn't something that ordinary spells would be able to harm.
Anzeds' Witchcraft was indeed very frightening.
But what was worrying was that even the frightening Ashes Storm didn't completely incapacitate her!
Hathaway watched with shock as Miss Silvermoon walked out of the Ashes Storm step by step!
With each step taken, her body was recovering, leaving bloody footprints on the way.
After a dozen steps, her body had already recovered to its original state.
The Wilderness God licked her lips, "I like this feeling."
"Witch, you are very strong, but that isn't enough to stop me."
"Now, I'm hungry…"
Miss Silvermoon's eyes suddenly focused on Molly, who was beside Minsk, clutching his clothes!
"Come over, my food."
'Miss Silvermoon' let out an uncanny laugh and her body disappeared without a trace!

Minsk shivered, picking up Molly and preparing to flee. But without warning, a formidable gravitational force pressed down on him!
[Divine Spell – Nature Exemption]!
He tried his best to remove the restraining spell that the Wilderness God had used on him. For this, he even used the blessings his father gave him, which had limited uses!
He did escape it.
But the Wilderness God was faster than him.
She appeared directly in front of them.
Those two beautiful eyes were filled with an insatiable greed.
"My food..."
She reached out toward Molly.
The girl shivered and loudly yelled, "Uncle Griffin! Save me!"
But Griffin didn't appear.
Instead, a foot came out of the sky!
That foot was the size of a small mountain and it stomped down on the Wilderness God!
Minsk looked up, only to see a giant version of Marvin in front of him.
His head almost broke through the ceiling of the huge dungeon!
"I said, I'll protect you, Molly," Marvin calmly reasserted.
[Ruler's Wrath]!
The little girl raised her head childishly and looked at Marvin. It took her some time before she could say, "Wow! Big Brother Marvin, you are huge…"
Black lines appeared on Marvin's forehead. 'Wasn't that sentence a bit weird?'
But after using his Ruler's Wrath, he really did become extremely tall, almost a few times taller than the Mechanical Titan.
If the dungeon had been a bit less spacious, the mountain might have already burst!
As for his stomp on the Wilderness God, he wasn't entirely relying on just strength.
After using Ruler's Wrath, he had an additional ability that fit the huge transformation!
[Ability – Fetters Feet]: You can easily crush your enemies under your feet. Opponents suffer from eight times the normal gravity when you are stepping on them.
This ability could temporarily suppress the Wilderness God. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to restrain her with just a stomp.

"Take Molly and leave!" Marvin looked at Hathaway, "Although I don't know the reason, the Wilderness God clearly wants to harm her."
Hathaway looked at Marvin's huge figure and eventually nodded.
She gently tugged on Molly's hands, intending to use Witchcraft to leave this place. But she didn't expect Molly to shake her hand off.
"We can't leave Uncle Griffin here…"
She actually ran back toward Griffin's corpse!
Marvin urged with a worried shout, "Move, fast!"
Hathaway and Minsk also looked troubled as they rushed over.
But at that time, a burst of pain came from Marvin's sole!
"No good!"
He realized that the ability was already losing effectiveness over the Wilderness God!
Immense amounts of Divine Power rushed out from underneath, burning like lava. It penetrated Marvin's foot like a sharp, metal spear!
His foot instantly jerked back from the pain.
Just as it was revealed, a badly mangled shadow charged out at Molly!
"Hand her over to me!" The Wilderness God's voice sounded like teeth grinding together, giving off an uncomfortable feeling.
"No way!"
Marvin dismissed the effects of Ruler's Wrath!
Night Boundary!
His body appeared in front of Molly.
He could see that after all the damage that had been done the Wilderness God was already an arrow at the end of its flight. She had no power left.
As long as he could keep delaying for a bit longer, Faniya would return and the Wilderness God would surely be sealed away once more!
Thinking of this, he could only brace himself to face her.
He couldn't retreat, because behind him were Griffin's body and his young charge, Molly.
[Shapeshift Sorcerer – Diamond Shape]!
Marvin was really going all-out this time!
For 8 seconds, he would be able to ignore pain and all negative debuffs. Unbreakable Diamond's effects combined with his Domains' bonuses would be enough to fight with the weakened Wilderness God for the duration!
In the first second, the Wilderness God rushed up and hugged Marvin, before countless barbs sprouted from her body and stabbed at Marvin.
But this was Unbreakable Diamond, which was comparable to the mighty [Earthen Fort]!
Marvin was safe and sound despite being in the Wilderness God's deadly embrace.
The Wilderness God was utterly discomfited at this and couldn't understand how Marvin suddenly turned from a Ranger into a meat shield...
At the fifth second, the Wilderness God used a spell, shackling Marvin's feet.
She then turned into a thin stream of blood and flew past Marvin!
"Molly, run!" Marvin shouted. He had already done all he could.
The Wilderness God was acting insane and began ignoring the injuries being sustained, only thinking about grabbing Molly!
They definitely couldn't let that happen.
But reality was too cruel. If the Wilderness God had fought them properly, and Marvin was able to join hands with Hathaway, they might have be able to delay longer. But she was now using all kind of unscrupulous means, all kinds of spells, constantly using false avatars, to the point that even Hathaway couldn't tell the difference between the avatars and her real body!
Minsk went all-out trying to protect Molly and let her escape, but a few roots came from underground and coiled around his waist!
Molly could only flee stumblingly by herself.
But she was still running toward Griffin's corpse. In her mind, Griffin would forever protect her.
Then, that sinister, graceful figure suddenly appeared before Griffin's body.
She and Molly were not far from each other.
"Hehe… Poor little thing."
She licked her lips.
