Feeling the continuous flow of magical energy from the magical world, Mephisto closed his eyes, and his consciousness instantly moved towards the intertwining point between the Hell Dimension and the magical world.
Observing the appearance of the spatial rift in the sky and the Hell demons incessantly advancing towards the magical world, Mephisto glanced at the scene and withdrew his consciousness.
Opening his eyes, Mephisto touched his chin, murmuring to himself, "Merlin, this old fox, what kind of trick is he playing again? Could it be that he wants to find an excuse to fight me?"
Perhaps the Earth magicians thought Merlin had long been gone for several centuries, but Mephisto knew very well that this old fellow was alive and well.
He had crossed paths with him in other worlds, but unfortunately, each time, he suffered a disastrous defeat and was extorted a few times.
After pondering for a moment, Mephisto believed that this was definitely Merlin's doing, enticing him to take the bait.
After all, in the Hell Dimension, he was at his peak, and even if Merlin came, he wouldn't fear the opponent. However, once he left the Hell Dimension, his strength would decline significantly without its support.
At that time, he might not be a match for Merlin.
The previous losses in a few worlds were due to leaving the Hell Dimension, and he was defeated by the opponent each time.
With this idea in mind, Mephisto made a decision. Regardless, he had to figure out what kind of scheme the other side was up to. After all, the dissipation of the magic world's protective array couldn't happen without reason.
After deciding, Mephisto's colossal form wriggled, and a source-free clone, devoid of Hell's essence, appeared before him. Then, he pointed towards the clone, dividing a portion of his consciousness, which entered the clone's body.
The clone opened its eyes and soared into the sky, heading towards the boundary between the Hell Dimension and the magical world. Meanwhile, Mephisto leaned on his chin, waiting for the clone to return with news.
...
Magical World-
The battle continued relentlessly. After several hours of intense fighting since the beginning, a faint light appeared in the sky, indicating that dawn was approaching.
At this point, the entire ninja army and the magical army were exhausted. The magical army had already started dividing into two batches – one part that needed to recover magical power and another part that continued dealing with the enemies.
As for Charles's ninja troops, they could endure for the time being, thanks to the replenishment of delicious ramen.
However, the high-intensity, ceaseless slaughter had left everyone mentally fatigued. Even in the midst of the siege, lower-ranking ninjas had suffered some injuries. But swift and timely medical treatment had healed most of them.
As the exhausted forces persisted in the battle, Merlin's Magic Tower suddenly erupted with a tremendous magical power. A massive blue beam shot into the sky from the tower, extending towards the heavens.
Observing the sudden appearance of the beam, the tense minds of the people on the battlefield immediately relaxed. They knew the battle was about to end; the magic array had been activated.
After reaching the sky's height, the beam transformed into a light blue magic shield that spread across the world.
Looking up at the magic array that was covering the entire world, Charles knew that after completely covering the entire world, the spatial rifts would be repaired, and this battle would come to a complete end.
At this moment, with the help of Merlin's robe, Charles flew into the air. It was time for him to join the battlefield.
As Charles entered the battlefield, he transformed into a humanoid walking artillery. The Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique was instantly cast, sending colossal fireballs, each with a diameter of ten meters, crashing forward. And it wasn't just one; it was multiple fireballs.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The scorching flames roared through, turning numerous demons into charred remains.
Feeling that the Fire Release was too weak in terms of lethality, Charles quickly executed a combination attack using his mastered ninjutsu.
"Water Release: Water Surge!"
"Lightning Release: Lightning Strike!"
Charles summoned swiftly rotating water like a tornado, which rapidly ascended. The water then spread downward like a waterfall, pushing forward countless hellish creatures and forming a massive river.
Observing the water area in front of him, countless demons who hadn't perished in this move crawled back up. Without hesitation, Charles, at the location of the water area, immediately used 'Lightning Release: Lightning Strike.'
Using the Dragon Ring, Charles summoned several lightning bolts, striking into the water.
The combination of these two ninjutsu produced immense power, with the water sparkling with the Lightning Release.
Using these two ninjutsu in coordination, Charles cleared out demons in vast numbers.
Seeing Charles in action, Tony exclaimed, "This guy has finally joined the fight!"
During this time, Tony had already changed his armor twice. The current set of armor he wore was the last one, as the offensive weapons and missiles on the previous two sets had been depleted. Even this set was the same.
Now, he relied solely on the armor's laser weapons to eliminate enemies. He had made sure to equip himself with a considerable number of small arc reactors in case he ran out of energy.
When that happened, he could easily switch to a new one.
With Charles's entry, the morale of everyone surged once again. They charged back into the demon army, reaping lives.
Charles continued to advance, using the combination jutsu to eliminate many low-level demons. However, at this stage of the battle, the demons pouring in had upgraded several levels in strength.
Previously, there were only a few Hell Lords, but now they were abundant, and demons were no longer mindless brutes; there were various magic-type demons.
Wind demons, fire demons, water demons, and the like became more prevalent, and Charles started using his ultimate techniques. He fervently employed various secret ninja techniques, harvesting the lives of these mid to high-level Hell demons and Hell Lords.
At this moment, Mephisto's clone arrived at the boundary between the two worlds. Watching the countless spatial rifts, it selected one and stepped into it.
As Mephisto entered the magical world, he looked at the two battling factions, his gaze instantly locking onto Charles. It was hard not to be attracted by that full set of Merlin's equipment.
Observing Charles kill the undead in front of him, Mephisto seriously examined him. He thought to himself, "This isn't Merlin. Could it be Merlin's successor?"
After all, that full set of Merlin's equipment was unmistakable. It included Merlin's robe, Merlin's staff, and even Merlin's Dragon Ring. Mephisto then shifted his gaze to the entire battlefield.
After a glance at the ongoing battle, he looked up at the magic array expanding in the sky and immediately understood what was happening.
