Chapter 59: Chapter59-Anti-Law Traceless
John raised his head and looked toward the central area of Shattered Mirror City.
There stood an inverted core tower.
At this moment, every mirror, street, and rift in the entire city was slowly revolving around that tower.
His eyes burned with focus as he stared fixedly at it.
At that moment, the Mirrorrealm Witch sensed his intention, and her voice suddenly turned cold.
"What are you trying to do?"
The corners of John’s lips lifted slightly.
"Since this dungeon responds to those who enter it, I think I should make it respond a little more thoroughly."
The next moment, a surging wave of Law radiated from his body.
After a brief silence, the Mirrorrealm Witch said, "Your level is far too low right now. If you forcibly resonate with the dungeon core, that terrifying Law will backlash against you and tear you apart completely."
But John showed no sign of stopping.
His figure began rapidly approaching the core tower.
"Since I can withstand Spatial Law, ordinary Law can’t possibly be harder than that."
Hearing this, the Mirrorrealm Witch, for once, did not mock him.
Because she knew that although John’s words were arrogant, they were not entirely unreasonable.
John’s level was indeed low.
But his attributes, soul strength, combat experience, and his ability to withstand high-level Spatial Authority were all extraordinary.
Even compared to demigods, he would not necessarily fall short. In fact, he even surpassed ordinary demigod powerhouses in certain aspects.
John did not slow down. He charged toward the city core at extreme speed.
The instant he was about to step onto the core tower, the entire Shattered Mirror City suddenly trembled violently.
Countless mirrors lit up almost at the same time, and a terrifying radiance instantly illuminated the entire city.
John showed no fear.
He took the initiative to expose his aura, class, skills, and even his battle memories to the dungeon core.
The core tower rapidly absorbed everything emanating from John’s body.
The next moment, the dungeon actually began to reorganize.
[The Second Stage has mutated. Reorganization beginning!]
[Reorganization complete. Current trial changed: Mirror-Memory Siege!]
In the next instant, figures began walking out one after another from countless broken mirrors.
They were enemies John had once faced.
There were bosses from the Starter Village.
There was the undead army from the Northern Exclusion Zone.
There were also externalized roots of the Meteorite Corpse Tree.
Among them were partial afterimages of the twenty-seven failures from the Trial of the First Seat.
There was even a faint faceless outline of the God Hunter projection he had fought not long ago.
These were not the true bodies descending.
They were mirror enemies generated by the Corridor of the Old Gods based on the memories and battle traces John had just exposed.
They inherited part of the original enemies’ combat styles, and as John continued to use Spatial Authority, their value would keep increasing, generating new spatial-trace monsters.
From within the mirror, the Mirrorrealm Witch’s solemn voice rang out.
"Well, now you’ve done it. It will use everything you have experienced against you.
"This will not be easy to deal with. How do you plan to solve it?"
At this moment, because of the Mirrorrealm Witch’s presence, the levels of these monsters had all been raised above Lv.100.
Even though John’s own level dragged them down somewhat, any random monster among them had still been raised to Lv.130.
But facing such a situation, a smile appeared on John’s face.
"Only enemies of this level are exactly what I need!"
At this stage, John no longer held back at all.
He finally began fighting with his full strength.
All four Spatial Authority Fragments were integrated without reservation into every movement and slash.
Voidblade Gale!
With one sword strike, a pale-blue sword wind like a hurricane erupted.
Every monster touched by the sword wind was cut apart instantly without exception.
[-97,996!]
[-97,790!]
[-976,808!]
[You have killed a Lv.130 Meteorite Corpse Tree Mirror Afterimage. EXP +13,000, gold coin +1,300!]
[You have killed a Lv.130 Spatial Insect Shade. EXP +13,000, gold coin +1,300!]
One batch after another of the monsters from John’s past were cut down.
At the same time, because Spatial Authority continued leaking out, new spatial-trace monsters were being generated endlessly.
The battlefield had completely turned into a tug-of-war between two kinds of enemies.
The number of past enemy afterimages kept decreasing, while the number of monsters born from spatial rifts kept increasing.
John did not care what kind of enemy they were.
He unleashed his skills and Spatial Authority without holding anything back, blasting them all to death.
His EXP began rising madly.
[Your level has increased to Lv.27!]
[Your level has increased to Lv.28!]
[...]
[Your level has increased to Lv.29!]
After this round of slaughter, John was only one level away from the Lv.30 required for his second class advancement.
Inside the mirrors, the Mirrorrealm Witch witnessed the entire process of John’s battle.
As she watched, the shock in her heart grew stronger and stronger.
At first, she had only thought John was somewhat troublesome.
Even later, when she believed John had potential, she had at most considered him a powerhouse with talent comparable to her own.
But only now did she truly realize just how exaggerated John’s combat state was.
This was absolutely not the kind of combat power a normal low-level adventurer should possess.
Even among the many demigod powerhouses she had seen, very few could control so many different systems of power at the same time in this manner.
Just from what she had seen, there was All-Class Magus, Spatial Authority, the Space Sever sword, and that nuclear blast filled with immense fire elemental power.
Then there were undead abilities, evolution abilities, assassination skills, knight techniques, mage spells, summoning abilities...
There were so many that she could not even count them all.
These powers should have conflicted with one another because of their differing attributes.
But at this moment, inside John’s body, they seemed to be forcibly unified by some core, forming an extremely savage yet gradually clarifying battle order.
[-98,189!]
[-98,189!]
[-98,289!]
[You have killed a Lv.140 God Hunter Projection Mirror Image. EXP +14,000, gold coin +1,400!]
Finally, during another massive burst of skills, John instantly killed the last batch of mirror afterimages formed from enemies he had encountered in the past.
However, the spatial-trace monsters still seemed endless.
At the same time, the coordinate beacon in the sky grew brighter and brighter.
At last, when the final mirror monster John had encountered disappeared completely, the beacon suddenly let out a deep hum and erupted with dazzling light.
A faint glow lit up in John’s eyes.
True Sight activated.
A system notification rang out beside his ears.
[Congratulations! You have glimpsed a hidden-level Law inside the Corridor of the Old Gods!]
[You have comprehended the hidden Law: Anti-Law Traceless!]
[Anti-Law Traceless]
[Type]: Hidden-Level Law Ability
[Effect]: When activated, it can conceal all high-level Law abilities!
...
As the system notification fell, an eerie fluctuation suddenly erupted from John’s body.
In the next instant, that fluctuation vanished completely.
It was not stealth.
Nor was it disguise.
John was clearly still standing where he was, yet it was as if Shattered Mirror City itself had ignored him.
At this moment, John had completely hidden himself within Shattered Mirror City.
