Icetail Awakens
Versatile Hands.
In theory, this would allow Soren to use any equipment and weapon.
So when he picked up the Gith Silver Sword, he only felt a moment of awkwardness before quickly mastering its use. Unfortunately, this weapon required Psionics to be fully effective, so when Soren picked it up, the blade was in its basic Longsword form, and he couldn't use Psionics its shape. To Soren, it was like a gleaming silver Gith Silver Sword, while to the Githyanki, it was like flowing silver liquid.
However, even so, its destructive power is still astonishing!
Item type: Gith Silver Sword [+3]
Item Level: [Tier 3 Transcendent Item]
Item Description: This is a weapon forged using special techniques and Enchantment Craft. Only the Githyanki live in the Astral Plane, can forge such special equipment. When the Gith Silver Sword is drawn, it is like flowing silver liquid, requiring corresponding Psionics power to fully unleash its effects. The Gith Silver Sword possesses destructive power far exceeding that of Supernatural Weapon of the same rank, but wielding it requires mastery of the [Exotic Weapon] Feat. Please note that this weapon is extremely powerful, but also extremely dangerous, because any outsider possessing the Gith Silver Sword could be located by the Githyanki, who will then do everything in their power to retrieve it.
Equipment requirement: Exotic Weapon Feat.
Equipment effect: Astral Weapon, Decapitation Property, Sever Silver Cord, Change Shape, +3 Sharpness, +3 penetration, +3 Toughness, +1 Armor Piercing.
Weapon Special Effect: [Astral Weapon], Astral Weapon use special materials and can deal normal damage to any enemy. Therefore, no enemy is immune to the attack of Astral Weapon.
Weapon Special Effect: [Decapitation Property], This weapon possesses an innate Decapitation Property; it was forged specifically to better suit Decapitation Attack. Without mastering the decapitation Feat, any Decapitation Attack using this weapon is equivalent to mastering the basic decapitation Feat effect. If the decapitation Feat is mastered, the weapon's destructive power will be significantly increased!
Weapon Special Feature: [Sever Silver Cord], the Githyanki's silver blade can sever the silver threads that connect souls, forcing enemies back into their physical bodies and inflicting damage. Note that only Soul Projection have silver threads. Creatures whose physical bodies exist in the Astral Plane do not have silver thread connections.
Weapon Characteristics: [Change Shape], the Gith Silver Sword can change its form. When it enters combat, the blade emits a silver glow, and with the help of Psionics power, it can transform into a Longsword, greatsword, Vorpal Sword, etc. This form-changing ability has certain limitations; it can only change a portion of the original form at most.
Tier 3 Supernatural Weapon.
However, in terms of weapon firepower, the Gith Silver Sword is definitely a Legendary piece of equipment.
While it can't match the Legendary Scimitar Icetail in terms of offensive power and Armor Piercing penetration, the Gith Silver Sword possesses a multitude of unique properties. It also boasts the ability to Sever Silver Cord in the Astral Plane and Decapitation Attack. This weapon is far superior to the +1 Scimitar Soren previously wielded. Soren, possessing the [Greater Two-Weapon Fighting] Feat, naturally needs two weapons to maximize his combat effectiveness. His Versatile Hands allows him to wield the Gith Silver Sword without much penalty; on the contrary, he seems quite adept at it.
Boom!
A loud explosion came from afar.
As more and more Githyanki charged toward the Northern Witch, the Witch began to unleash Evocation Spell. They raised their staffs, and with each burst of Spell Aura, Fireball, Cone of Cold, Melf's Acid Arrow, and other spells already stored within them rained down on the Githyanki Warrior. Enemy casualties began to mount, but the Northern Witch were also in danger. As the distance closed, the Githyanki could now attack their Energy Protection Field.
Roar!
A deep, rumbling roar followed.
Soren looked up at the sky, then couldn't help but curse, before running away as fast as he could.
Red Dragon!
As expected, the most powerful and cunning creature among the Chromatic Dragon chose Soren as its target, intending to burn this tiny human to death first.
"The nail that sticks out gets hammered down!"
This "early bird" might not only be the strongest and most conspicuous, but it could also be the weakest and easiest to deal with.
That damned Red Dragon is such a creature!
As the largest, strongest, and most Dragon Breath of the Chromatic Dragon, the Red Dragon, despite its arrogant nature, prefers to deal with the weakest enemy first in battle. It likes to eliminate its enemies one by one, killing the weakest first, then taking down its targets one by one, until only one remains. Therefore, when facing Red Dragon, the weakest is actually the most dangerous; if it's unclear which is the weakest, the Red Dragon will attack the easiest to defeat.
All those present were high-ranking Northern Witch, so Soren was undoubtedly the weakest and also the easiest to deal with!
Therefore, the Red Dragon targeted him as its first attack target.
Its massive body swooped down, but instead of attacking Soren with its claws, it took a deep breath in mid-air and then unleashed a burst of scorching Dragon Breath!
--"Hide from Gaze!"
--"Shadow Shift!"
Soren's figure suddenly vanished from the spot.
He could barely withstand the White Dragon's Dragon Breath, but he absolutely dared not take the Red Dragon's Dragon Breath head-on, because the Red Dragon's Dragon Breath was the most powerful of the Chromatic Dragon. Without any Constitution resilience Fire Resistance, the Red Dragon's Dragon Breath could cause about 120 points of Fire Damage. Under normal circumstances, a level 1 Warrior has about 15 Hit Points points, which means that where it breathed, it would plow out a Hit Points zone.
This is why the Red Dragon appears most frequently in Epic Legend, and also represents the greatest danger!
A surging heat wave chased after us.
Left with no other option, Soren activated his Shadow Shift ability, instantly appearing behind an Earth Elemental in front of him.
The massive Red Dragon pursued from behind. Although it was slightly surprised by the cunning enemy's escape, as Dragon, it didn't care. It was a fully grown Red Dragon; adulthood meant it was Toughness and incredibly powerful, and it also meant it could unleash its Dragon Breath continuously. The scorching Dragon Breath struck the ground, instantly clearing a burnt trail. The Earth Elemental that Soren's Shadow Shift were enveloped by the Dragon Breath, and after only two seconds, they were reduced to a pile of half-crystallized fragments.
The Red Dragon Fire!
The hottest flame of all things.
"Careful!"
A cry of Goria came from ahead, followed by a Protection from Energy on Soren. Soren had no time to look around; Roll Dodge, then leaped to the right as far as he could. The Dragon's breath echoed behind him. On the ground, speed could never match flight; Soren felt the scorching heat on his back, followed by a burst of Dragon Breath that engulfed him in flames!
They still couldn't escape it.
The Red Dragon's Dragon Breath covers nearly twice the area of other Dragon, and the sea of fire they spew can last for half a minute. Simply put, when Red Dragon unleashes its Dragon Breath, it can fly from one side of a town to the other, then unleash a straight line of Dragon Breath across a sizable town. The largest such wall of fire Soren had ever seen was about thirty meters wide and over six hundred meters long!
The Red Dragon's massive size gives it an even more astonishing lung capacity.
The scorching Dragon Breath enveloped Soren, and in an instant, his entire body felt a burning sensation. Although the Witch's ' Protection from Energy ' absorbed several hundred points of damage from the Dragon Breath, Soren's Hit Points was still decreasing at a rate of twenty to thirty points per second. His Superhuman Constitution granted him a certain degree of Fortitude Save, but Soren still couldn't withstand the Dragon Breath for long. He felt as if he had entered a Smelting Furnace, and his flesh and blood felt like they were about to be charred.
But!
Just as Soren felt he was about to be Heavy Injury Condition, the Legendary Scimitar Icetail in his hand suddenly burst forth with a dazzling light.
A chilling power surged into Soren's body.
The scorching dragon breath enveloping him neutralized the damage, and the blade of Ice Death erupted with an incomparably dazzling light, a silver brilliance even more striking than the Silver Blade of Gith. It was as conspicuous as a torch, its light impossible to extinguish. The scorching dragon breath enveloped Sauron, but the temperature of Ice Death dropped below zero. It transmitted streams of cold power to Sauron, continuously offsetting the damage from the red dragon's breath, and even emitting magical auras to extinguish the surrounding flames.
It has awakened!
As the Legendary Scimitar awakened, Soren sensed a will, a will as simple as that of an animal.
This will tells Soren that it has awakened!
It was also activating its past abilities, and a cold aura emanated from it. Soren's Fire Damage decreased, and the nearby flames ignited by the Dragon Breath were gradually extinguished.
Scimitar [Icetail]!
For reasons unknown even to Soren, it awoke at the moment it was subjected to the Red Dragon's breath.
The moment it awoke, the abilities it had lost for some reason began to return. As a Scimitar from Epic Legend, its abilities are definitely not limited to extreme Sharpness and a little bit of added Cold Damage.
