Chapter 1077: Lich’s nightmare (2)



There was no time for me to think about what was happening either as the giant lich didn't seem to stop what it was doing.

After missing me with one hand, the lich switched to the other hand and tried to grab me.

It was just too bad for the giant lich that it was moving slowly and it was so big that it was quite easy for me to dodge out of the way. It took no effort at all on my part to move out of the way of the giant bone hand that came down at me.

I didn't understand what was happening or what the lich was doing.

After all, if it was the lich, then why didn't it just use its dark energy to grab me.

Why was it relying on a crude method like trying to catch me with its hands like this? Especially when it was clear that this just wasn't working.

It didn't seem to make any sense at all.

The more that I thought about this, the more that this seemed like some kind of dream... Then I remembered what happened after we returned from the fight with the lich.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

I had fallen unconscious from overusing my mana by continuously using the Staff of Earth during the fight with the lich. That had caused me to lose consciousness as soon as we had returned behind the walls.

So did that mean that this was all a dream?

But if it was, why would I dream about the lich and it trying to catch me like this?

None of this made any sense at all...

That Orb of the Dead should have been with the lich for a long time, so it wouldn't have been strange if a part of the lich entered the orb.

In that case, that part of the lich was now trying to take over my body now that its main body had been destroyed. The place that we were in should be a representation of my mind and this giant lich should be the essence that was left behind by the lich.

If I allowed this dark energy to enter me...it was hard to say if I would be able to remain as I was.

There was no doubt that it would be dangerous to let this dark energy near me.

Only...what was I supposed to do here?

I didn't have a single thing on me, so it wasn't as if there was anything for me to fight with.

The only thing that came to mind was that this place was inside of my mind, so I should have some kind of power here...

Right?

"Back!" I shouted at the dark energy that was approaching me, doing my best to will the dark energy away from me. However, it didn't seem like I was able to push this dark energy away with just my mind.

The dark energy seemed to creep closer and closer towards me, as if it was about to take over at any moment.

Before I could say anything else though, there was something that appeared that stopped the dark energy right in its tracks. There was this layer of white light that appeared around me that immediately started pushing back the dark energy.

With the way that the dark energy disappeared when it made contact with that layer of white light, it was almost as if this dark energy was being purified by the white light.

I didn't understand where this layer of white light came from at first, but then I noticed that there was something that was glowing on my hand.

"The Mark of God?"
