A Wizard’s Secret
chapter-1030-30041322

Immediately after flying into the Central Region Major Cosmos, Merlin felt an extremely strong pressure as if he could be crushed at any moment.

Furthermore, Merlin could not resist this pressure at all.

"Do you feel it?"

Aruba seemed to have a vague smile as he asked.

"I do. The pressure of the Central Region Major Cosmos is immense."

Aruba nodded and said meaningfully, "No matter how big the Central Region Major Cosmos is, it's still Sir Tyron's Latitude Cosmos. Once you enter, you'll be suppressed by the entire world. That's why neither Free Beings nor Controllers should try to enter another Latitude Cosmos."

Merlin nodded. If others entered his Illusory World, he would naturally have some advantages over them.

"However, you don't have to worry about the Central Region Major Cosmos. Sir Tyron is already an existence standing at the peak, so who can stand up to him? The Central Region Major Cosmos is the safest place."

Aruba introduced the situation in the Central Region Major Cosmos. It was in the center and surrounded by countless other Latitude Regions, so there were many people around.

However, although Merlin had imagined that they would encounter Free Beings and Controllers everywhere, they had hardly seen any even after flying for such a long time.

On the contrary, they were all ordinary people. Of course, these ordinary people had some peculiar powers. However, they were insignificant compared to Free Beings or Controllers.

"Are there ordinary people in the Central Region Major Cosmos?"

Merlin asked in surprise.

"Haha, of course, there is. Is there no life in your Illusory World? These ordinary people are locals of the Central Region Major Cosmos. However, they're already used to us."

Aruba explained.

"Isn't the Central Region Major Cosmos the center of countless Latitude Regions? Why haven't we met even a single Free Being or Controller?"

The situation here was quite different from Merlin's imagination.

"Haha, one Latitude Region might only produce one Free Being and the Central Region Major Cosmos is equivalent to hundreds of Latitude Regions. How many Free Beings do you think can gather? Did you think it'll be easy to encounter Free Beings? Even in the Central Region Major Cosmos, Free Beings and Controllers are supreme and great existences."

Merlin nodded silently. He had not thought about that before but now that he did, it made sense. Free Beings and Controllers were extremely noble and were considered grand existences even in the Central Region Major Cosmos, so how would he encounter them easily?

"Right, we're here. Hehe, Merlin, those old friends of mine are Free Beings. I'll introduce you to them."

Aruba finally arrived at a towering mountain that rose to the skies. It towered over everything and there were very few people around.

However, Merlin could feel a few powerful life forces at the top of the mountain.

"Swoosh swoosh."

Merlin followed Aruba and flew to the top of the mountain. On top of the mountain was a magnificent palace. Immediately after entering the palace, Merlin heard an outspoken voice, "Haha, Aruba, we haven't seen you in more than a hundred latitude years."

Latitude years were a unique way for Free Beings and Controllers to number the years. A latitude year was the time it took for an ordinary Free Being to fly all over an ordinary Latitude Region.

If converted to the time in the Void Zone or the Almighty Beast World, one latitude year would be around one hundred and eighty million years. The lifespan of these Free Beings was endless, so time was just a number to them.

"That's right. We haven't met in one hundred and eight latitude years. Is it just the three of you here?"

Aruba's eyes swept the palace and found that there were only three Free Beings. They were all his old friends.

"They…"

After hearing Aruba's words, the three powerful Free Beings stiffened and grew downcast.

"What? What happened to them?"

Aruba's expression cooled. He already had a bad feeling.

"Aruba, Bajakah and Mocas are dead!"

"Boom."

Aruba's expression changed greatly. Two of his five old friends had died and only three were left. How could this be?

"They're powerful Free Beings. Who could have killed them? Who was it?"

Aruba's voice trembled. He was extremely emotional and his body exuded a strong killing intent. If a Free Being went on a rampage, he could destroy countless Latitude Cosmoses. For a grand existence who could destroy even a Latitude Cosmos, how would one be killed that easily?

"It was the Controller from the Naya Latitude Region, Naya!"

The three Free Beings said angrily. They had found a new Latitude Cosmos with a very weak will in a mysterious Latitude Region, so the five Free Beings had prepared to capture this Latitude Cosmos. Although they were Free Beings, they could not devour a world's will. However, this was still a newly born Latitude Cosmos, so capturing it and selling it off would also be very profitable.

However, at that time, they happened to meet Naya. He had a Minor Cosmos and had strength comparable to thirty Latitude Cosmoses. In a fight with five of them, he had killed Bajakah and Mocas. The remaining three had only managed to escape with great difficulty.

"We want revenge but Naya is a Controller and also possesses a Minor Cosmos, so he's very difficult to deal with. Ordinary Free Beings aren't his match at all. Even if we wanted to hire a Controller, they're too expensive and we simply can't afford them…"

They grew silent. Aruba's expression was furious but his gaze was also vaguely helpless.

Something like this happened just as Merlin arrived. Originally, Free Beings and Controllers had an infinite lifespan and could live forever but now, it seemed that as long as there were people, there would always be fights. There would never be peace.

"Alright, Aruba, we'll discuss this matter later. Who is this?"

Their gaze fell on Merlin.

Aruba glanced at Merlin and calmed himself down before introducing, "He's Merlin. He was just born from my Latitude Region."

"Haha, Aruba, who would've thought that your tiny little Latitude Region would produce a second Free Being? You're quite lucky."

"One Latitude Region producing two Free Beings is something that only a large Latitude Region can do. Merlin, congratulations. Once you become a Free Being, you'll have an unlimited lifespan and will never be bound by a Latitude Cosmos again."

Everyone was happy for Aruba as a new Free Being was born from the same Latitude Region as him. Those who were born at the same Latitude Region usually became close friends who shared life and death. From now on, Aruba had gained another close Free Being friend.

A strange look flashed in Aruba's eyes as he said in an odd tone, "Wait, who said Merlin is a Free Being? Did I say that?"

"Huh? He's not a Free Being?"

The three people's faces expressed doubt. Judging by Merlin's aura, it was clear that he was not an ordinary person.

"Haha, of course he's not a Free Being. I'll tell you now, Merlin is a bona fide Controller!"

Aruba burst out laughing with a hint of pride on his face.

"Boom."

The three Free Beings froze as waves crashed in their minds. A Controller. A Controller was only born from every ten of thousands of Latitude Regions. They were truly one-in-ten-thousand.

Each Controller had unlimited potential. Although they were also free of the Latitude Cosmos, a Controller was better than Free Beings.

Unexpectedly, Aruba had brought back a rare Controller!
