Equipment Card: Thunder Strike Halberd
Sherlock feels complicated.
He never expected that in a battle of this magnitude... he could actually participate in it.
When he and Iver arrived at the scene riding the gryphon Liz, Giant Prince Wolfram was at a steady disadvantage.
There was no doubt that the giant wanted to escape. He threw out many of the tricks and trump cards he had prepared over the years one after another, barely withstanding the first wave of offensive.
Those mysterious, strange and powerful ritual spells made Sherlock frightened - if they were all used to fight Grand Guardian, Mr. George would most likely be in trouble.
——However, Wild Hunt King is simply too strong.
It almost ignored all spells and kept attacking the giant. Those ordinary undead were constantly defeated, but they had no impact on the battle situation at all... They would be reborn again tomorrow night.
The giant could barely compete with Wild Hunt King by relying on the various states he had blessed in advance.
He used to only use one-tenth of his strength and his own skills, without using his path ability, to severely injure the new Bureau of Supervision leader from Glass Island with one blow. He is indeed so good that he can rely on a buff state to prevent himself from getting too seriously injured when he is absolutely at a disadvantage.
Although they were at a disadvantage, they gradually stabilized the situation.
If they approach at this time, they are very likely to be directly affected by the ritual spell - Iver can disperse into bats and avoid it, but what should he and Liz do?
And Iver gave extremely precise command——
He let Sherlock use the "Petrification Removal Ointment" made by Yulia to condense into Mud Eagle, and then crashed into Giant King.
——This is the same battle idea as the "Water Demon Hand-Sulfuric Acid filling" used in Promotion Ritual when Sherlock first met Iver!
Iver is not a mage at all, but he can accurately capture inspiration from that battle and judge what they should do most at the moment...
Although Iver mentioned the power of Wild Hunt King before, Sherlock was still frightened by watching the battle at close range - it may have the power of the legendary Sixth Level, and just the aftermath of the attack can tear the atmosphere apart.
Sherlock made this judgment because it is much more powerful than Grand Guardian. Even if there is only one person, I am afraid that the entire Griffin Legion army can be wiped out... and this is even if it has hardly used any special abilities.
And the Giant King son fighting it is the top powerhouse of the main path Fifth Level and the secondary path Fourth Level - even if it is completely suppressed in front of it, it is definitely not something Iver can participate in. I'm afraid that even if the phantom demon named "Paradox Flame Butterfly" is summoned, he will be killed directly by him within two moves.
He even saw various states on the opponent to counter fire damage - Path of Wisdom's "Super Intelligence: Analysis" allowed him to accurately judge the effects of these states. From this, the results of the simulated battle can be roughly inferred.
As a result, Iver and Sherlock are completely unable to participate in a battle of this scale.
——However, Iver's command worked wonders.
Of course, Mud Eagle didn't cause any damage, and Self-Destruct was destroyed even before it could succeed.
But even so, part of the "Petrification Removal Ointment" was still sprinkled on Giant King's body.
This directly caused his [Petrified Skin] state to be lifted! And Iver did another thing.
A Tarot Card with a strange appearance appeared out of thin air in his hand, and he threw it directly at Wild Hunt King like a dart——
Sherlock was so scared that he held his breath.
I saw Wild Hunt King swatting it away without paying attention to it - Giant King's hatred was too stable.
But the moment the spear touched the card, the card suddenly exploded into a ball of shadow, covering the spear in Wild Hunt King's hand.
Sherlock instantly analyzed that it was an extremely powerful gain state. And Wild Hunt King was obviously aware of this, and looked over in surprise for the first time.
Therefore, Iver strengthened Wild Hunt King's attack, and Sherlock weakened Wolfram's defense. Despite the ebb and flow, there was no sudden change in the fighting styles of the two - the result was that Wild Hunt King's attack suddenly penetrated Wolfram's petrified body.
From this attack as a breakthrough, Wolfram finally lost its stability. He was defeated in just a few moves and was killed directly.
"Sure enough, as Iver said, sometimes just one key spell can turn the tide of the battle..."
This finally made Sherlock breathe a sigh of relief, and he felt a little more admiration for Iver.
His fighting spirit is really strong. After arriving at the battlefield, with just a few glances, he was able to direct a path profession that he knew nothing about to make the most correct response.
But at this moment, Iver told Sherlock that Wolfram was not dead yet and asked him to "touch the body" first. Sherlock simply understands that this should be some kind of slang, meaning to collect trophies.
——I don't know where this kid learned it from. Full of slander.
Little Sherlock thought to himself, but obeyed Iver's arrangement to "touch the corpse."
With the "Super Intelligence" state turned on, he is indeed suitable for analyzing whether various things are useful and whether they are extraordinary equipment.
And Iver turned into a bat and rushed back to the battlefield on the other side.
Originally, Iver's request was just to hold on tight and don't let him go. But Hai Na, who got the golden Path Trait and activated the holy sword, seemed to be frighteningly strong... With the help of Paradox Flame Butterfly, Lily and Shadow Demon, he easily defeated Punishment Demon in a few rounds. It can even be injured without dying - this is much more difficult than killing it directly.
Facing Punishment Demon who had completely given up resistance, Iver knew exactly what kind of overwhelming strength they had shown.
Only in this way will Punishment Demon stay here and wait for death instead of trying to fight back or escape.
... But I didn't expect that you would have no chance of resurrection.
Iver chuckled lightly and chanted loudly:
"——I invite Weizhe, Sacred Number is the four gods, the God who sees the truth and the God who is silent!"
A bullet, shackles and keys, three gryphon feathers, and four owl feathers.
The material suspended in the air on its own, carving a Wheel of Fortune in the air.
The original Wheel of Fortune has a wheel divided into four parts in the middle. Its four corners are lion, eagle, angel and cow. These four animals represent fire, water, wind and earth. And these animals are reading books and have wings behind their backs. It is truth and wisdom that allow them to control their own destiny.
Wheel of Fortune has three floors, and there are three guardians above the wheel, on the lower left and on the lower right. They are the blue Sphinx holding a sword on the top, the yellow snake-shaped evil god Apophis on the left, and the red Anubis on the right. Because the snake head is downward, that means Wheel of Fortune is rotating counterclockwise.
Sinking down, rising out of hell, reaching the highest point again, and then going down again - this is the cycle of destiny.
Iver felt the mana in his body being drawn out crazily.
Not just the five points originally required by Card Making, but more - more than sixty points of mana were taken away.
But Iver did not resist, but allowed the ritual to extract the mana from his body.
Just then.
A bolt of thunder fell and struck Punishment Demon, who was controlling the thunder!
It was a bolt of thunder that looked ordinary.
But Punishment Demon turned into powder almost instantly - and it was sucked by the sapphire powder and flew to the card in front of Iver.
This is a thunder struck by Weizhe himself!
Colored by Punishment Demon's soul, Tarot Card in front of Iver began to change suddenly.
It turned into a blue-purple Tarot Card.
The card rotated and fell into the hands of Iver, revealing its attributes: [Equipment Card: Thunder Strike Halberd (Wheel of Fortune)]
[Required: Wind 3 or Dark 3]
[Action, summoning, repeat singing]
[Effect: Summon "Thunder Strike Halberd" (Extraordinary Weapon-halberd, heavy, punishment, armor-breaking, holding module "Demon Killer", thunder attribute attack)]
[Effect: Use again to increase the holder's "Lightning Affinity" level by +3, lasting for one minute]
Activate mana, which is two points more than the normal Thunder Strike Halberd.
But there is an additional chorus effect... Is this the enhancement obtained after completely sucking Punishment Demon dry?
This should have been something that made Iver ecstatic.
But now he was attracted by the card: above it was still the Sphinx holding a sword - the Sphinx also represents sulfur, which in alchemy represents the soul.
On the right is Typhon, the legendary son of Tartarus, the god of hell, and the father of the hellhound Cerberus. It represents salt, and salt represents the physical body of living things.
Anubis went to the left. He crawls upwards, while Typhon on the right falls downwards, which means Wheel of Fortune is reversed - from counterclockwise to clockwise.
Different from the previous composition, the four living creatures at the corners of the wheel and the heavenly clouds are missing.
Those shining things turned into stars in the sky.
The entire Wheel of Fortune was shrouded in thunder. But the thunder did not harm the three gods at all - proving that this thunder was the great force that destroyed the old Wheel of Fortune and turned it around. It also foreshadows Weizhe who controls the thunder.
And at the bottom of Wheel of Fortune, there is a small, almost invisible fist.
That's the clenched fist of humanity.
Humanity holds Wheel of Fortune by its own will and spins it.
This destiny does not need to be controlled by the sanctity of the four living creatures, and human beings must not lie down and read in comfort - but must stand up and seek change.
——Change your destiny with your own power.
Iver looked at the card face, as if he had some enlightenment.
He murmured softly, "The so-called humans... are all stars."
As soon as he said these words, he felt extremely familiar.
It's as if I have heard this sentence before...
