Chapter 1894. Take One for the Team

Like a frenzied wolf, Mammon mauled the remaining arm of the World Sentinel still holding him. That arm was soon severed as well.

Spring Crown had moved away. Now that he became Mammon's sole target, he couldn't attack as conveniently as before.

Mammon charged at him. Spring Crown changed his weapon to a glaive. He then made a vertical slash. A gigantic dark crescent shot out from that slash.

"What...?!" Since Mammon was charging toward Spring Crown, he ran directly at the dark crescent. His surprise was not because of having an attack suddenly before him, but it was the attack itself. The dark crescent that Spring Crown unleashed was the same skill he used earlier, the Infernal Crescent of Darkness.

His claw clashed with the dark crescent. The dark crescent was destroyed, but Mammon had to stop his charge.

'It was truly the Infernal Crescent of Darkness!' Mammon exclaimed in his mind. He could feel the dark energy latching onto his claw, devouring his HP and his weapon's durability

"How do you learn this skill?!" Mammon exclaimed. This was supposed to be a skill unique to him.

"Hehe, don't you want to know?" Spring Crown taunted. He slashed his weapons. Multiple dark blades shot out.

"What...?!" Mammon exclaimed in surprise. This was again the same skill he had used earlier.

What Spring Crown used was Weapon God's level 70 skill, Steal Weapon Skill. This skill enabled Spring Crown to steal a skill as long as it was executed using weapons, even a skill unique to a native or monster. The stolen skill was permanent until he replaced it with another skill.

At max level, he had three slots to input the stolen skills. The level of the stolen skills followed the level of Steal Weapon Skill.

While Mammon was surprised by the dark blades, the World Sentinel slammed into him from behind. The World Sentinel wrapped his arms around Mammon. His two severed arms had vines coming out of the stumps. These vines were now entangling each other, locking Mammon in the process.

"You think you can stop me? Grrr..." Mammon exerted his strength. Several of the vines snapped, but new ones grew and interlocked with one another. The World Sentinel's hold become even stronger.

"Rarrggghh...!" Mammon bent his knees before forcefully jumping up, dragging the World Sentinel with him. The weight of the giant treant caused Mammon to be unable to jump far. He fell back down with the World Sentinel at the bottom. They crashed into the ground and caused an earthquake. Dust clouds spread all around them.

"David!" Spring Crown exclaimed. He had predicted the devil's action.

David's magnetic drones didn't rush forward with the spirit weapons. They stayed near Spring Crown in a circling formation around him. When Mammon arrived, they released a magnetic energy that linked with each other. This energy formed a hexagon-shaped magnetic shield that protected Spring Crown.

This was another ability of the magnetic drones. They were not only offensive tools. When needed, they could create a protective field as long as there were at least three drones. The magnetic shield blocked Mammon's claw aiming for Spring Crown.

"Weak attempt!" Mammon mocked.

He clenched. The magnetic shield couldn't compete with the force he exerted. The protective field was destroyed. The six drones wobbled from the violent force.

Even though the magnetic shield failed to stop Mammon, it halted him for a beat. Spring Crown used the chance to unleash the third skill he had stolen. His weapon transformed into claws. When he punched, a giant image of a shadow wolf was conjured. This shadow wolf went straight for Mammon. Its claws pierced into Mammon's chest, causing huge damage. A gash appeared at the spot where the claws had landed. Thick black blood spewed from the gash.

Mammon roared, both from pain and anger. The despicable outworlder had not only murdered his son. He also wounded him using his own skill. He wouldn't be satisfied if he didn't tear this outworlder apart.

Spring Crown had again flown back after delivering the attack. He knew he couldn't afford to clash with Mammon directly.

When Mammon was about to lunge at Spring Crown again, he sensed strong pressure from the side. He turned and saw a golden dragon rushing at him. Jeanny had utilized the time when Mammon was occupied to complete her rune technique, the Divine Dragon Spear.

Mammon frowned. He sensed the mana from this golden dragon. It was not something that could be blocked. So, he jumped to the side, dodging the dragon. The dragon turned and went after him. Mammon moved again, keeping a distance from the golden dragon.

"Damn it!" Jeanny cursed. Mammon was so fast. Her golden dragon couldn't keep up. If this continued, it could expire its energy before touching Mammon.

The others were aware of the situation. The spirit weapons and the magnetic drones tried to hinder Mammon's movement, but Mammon's claws easily slapped them away. Mammon continued moving away from the golden dragon until he found Spring Crown before him.

The anger consumed him again once he saw this outworlder. The gash in his chest was still dripping some blood. He threw away all caution and lunged at Spring Crown.

"Aw, man... Take one for the team, they say," Spring Crown sighed. He was wielding a broadsword. He executed Shadowless Slash, the sword art he learned from Arthur.

The slashes from the art could match Mammon's clawing speed, but not his power. Spring Crown tumbled from the impact. He then found himself in Mammon's grip. When he looked up, he saw Mammon's huge open mouth. Dark energy swirled within it.

Mammon shoved Spring Crown into the mouth of his center head. He then bit down. Dark energy exploded when he clamped his jaws, shredding Spring Crown with the sharp teeth inside his mouth. At the same time, Jeanny's golden dragon slammed into his body.
