High in the clouds, the wooden Coat Rack beneath Lumian's feet, burning with Cyan with Purple Burning Flames, did not quickly turn to ashes. Like a real, magical metal impervious to high temperatures, it maintained its basic, hard state.

This is an ability that "Hunter" possess from the "Iron-Blooded Knight" stage: to "weaponize" ordinary objects, turning them into deadly weapons in a short period of time.

At the Angel level, Lumian could temporarily make wood, Paper, and other materials reach the strength of the "Sword of Courage," ensuring that they would not instantly disintegrate under the added Flames and hidden explosions, thus maintaining their basic stability.

In this way, the "Hunter's" Fireball can gain a carrier and allocate a certain amount of power to continuously accelerate, eventually bombarding the target area from a distance at several times the speed of sound.

In the "Iron-Blooded Knight" stage, this range is 5 to 10 kilometers, while for the "Weather Warlock" it is hundreds or even thousands of kilometers.

However, this is not very useful in actual combat. No matter how fast the weapon carrying the Fireball flies, it will still take a certain amount of time to reach the target area after the super long distance is added. Not to mention Angel and Saint, even Mid-Sequence Beyonder, as long as their spiritual intuition is strong, can detect it in advance and escape from the place that may be covered in time.

--The current level of "Fog of War" cannot be attached to or followed.

Lumian can detach a small portion of his spirit and merge it into Fireball or weapons, allowing them to change direction. However, this manipulation becomes too precise when the distance is too great, making it impossible to strike enemies above a certain level.

The greatest effect of this kind of attack is to destroy fixed targets, which is far less effective than the Mysticism long-range attacks delivered through the Mirror World for Lumian.

but...

Lumian glanced down at the Burning, purple-blue Coat Rack beneath his feet, resembling a giant sword, then looked at the blown-away white clouds and the city below, seemingly composed of grains of Dust. He listened to the sonic boom that couldn't keep up with him and chuckled inwardly.

"So cool!"

Without considering conspiracies, the "Hunter" has to be arrogant!

Otherwise, how can Provocation?

Boom!

A streak of bluish-purple light, trampled underfoot by a figure, rapidly soared through the sky, leaving behind a deafening explosion that made houses and windows tremble violently.

Beside a mountain village where Torrential Rain poured down.

The River Channel had overflowed, its waters turning yellowish, flowing towards the small city in the distance.

Residents of the city are worried that flash floods will affect their homes, while many villagers have already gone up to the second floor or climbed onto the roof because the rising water is above their knees and trying to force open their doors.

As the Flood grew increasingly yellow, some of the more experienced villagers became more worried, but there was nowhere to escape.

Suddenly, they heard a loud "bang" and instinctively looked up, casting their gaze towards the sky.

They then saw a streak of light, Cyan with Purple like a fireball, swirling and stopping amidst the layers of dark clouds. Above it seemed to stand a person, a figure with long, blood-red hair, who appeared very tall despite being far away.

The man wielded the Flames Greatsword beneath his feet, moving amidst the rising white steam and the dense rain. His movements were powerful and rhythmic, his posture Distortion and bizarre.

Suddenly, a divine being appeared, dancing in the sky!

The villagers nearby and the citizens in the distance who witnessed this scene suddenly had a thought:

This is a sacrificial ceremony.

A ritual to pray to a certain being!

The sacrificial dance grew increasingly intense, and every human witnessing it seemed to hear the thunderous drumbeats.

As the dance of the gods and humans progressed, the rain gradually subsided, and the dark clouds in the sky dispersed one by one.

Finally, the Torrential Rain completely stopped, and rays of brilliant Sunlight shone on the villagers who had taken shelter on the second floor and rooftops, and on the faces of the citizens who were looking worriedly towards the mountains.

The divine being ceased its sacrificial dance, and the Flames Greatsword beneath its feet vanished.

He proclaimed to humanity below in a majestic, layered voice:

My name:

"The Scion of the King of Yellow and Black, the priests of weather and Plague, the twins who spread war and chaos!"

Among the witnesses who were born and raised in a religious society, a large number instinctively lowered their heads and shouted in unison, "Praise be to you, priest of weather and Plague!"

"Praise be to you for saving us from Calamity!"

When these people raised their heads, the Deity in mid-air had vanished.

Inside the Luxury Villa in Trier.

Lumian's figure quickly appeared in his room.

He could clearly feel that his "Weather Warlock" Potion had been digested a little.

The effect of this Acting was much better than when I was first promoted and managed to change the extreme weather in three different regions!

Previously, I did good deeds quietly, without anyone knowing, and there was a lack of clearly targeted feedback.

"Well, a ' Weather Warlock ' has to be known as a 'sorcerer,' they have to be seen or understood, otherwise it's not a successful Acting... The people in those three regions will most likely think it's the protection of their local gods, praising those gods, not me. Only a small number of people will connect the weather changes with the previous appearance of Witch..."

"You can't just change the weather so easily. Even if it doesn't actually work, you still need to maintain the proper sense of Ritual. You have to make the Spectator feel that I put in a lot of effort to change the weather. Otherwise, Acting the role of a ' Weather God ' instead of a ' Weather Warlock '..."

"It should be fine to classify the ' Weather Warlock ' as a weather priest..."

"Furthermore, the ' Hunter ' represents the Primordial One Men side, which is virile and Aggressiveness, and is often associated with flamboyance."

"From this perspective, the ' Hunter's' arrogance and conspicuousness are sometimes a conspiracy, and sometimes a necessary Acting..."

By combining the different feedback from the two Acting, Lumian vaguely grasped a key point:

The Acting of a "Weather Warlock" cannot be understated!

Doing good deeds behind the scenes is not the "Hunter's" style!

Furthermore, while the Sequence name "Weather Warlock" doesn't explicitly indicate good or bad, based on the fact that the "Hunter" Pathway represents war and is one of the two major components of Calamity, and considering the experience of Acting previous Sequence, Lumian suspects that the hidden Acting Principle is "to change the weather to bring Calamity."

"Using weather manipulation to bring Calamity to the enemy will be a key Acting going forward." Lumian nodded thoughtfully, a hint of disappointment in his voice.

He muttered to himself, "No surprises, nothing unusual..."

His flamboyant trip this time was partly to satisfy his normal inner desires and maintain and strengthen his Humanity, and partly to lure out the hidden plans of "Blood Emperor" Alista Tudor or "That One Red Angel" Medici.

Unfortunately, with Mr. The Fool watching him and the situation not chaotic, nothing happened.

Every successful "Hunter" is a skilled Conspirer and wouldn't be so easily fooled.

Despite feeling somewhat disappointed, Lumian, who was in much better spirits, left the bedroom and went downstairs to pour herself a glass of Absinthe.

Franca heard the noise and came out of her studio.

She has let the "Mystery’s Face" fall back into Slumber, lying back inside the "Traveler’s Bag."

Looking at Lumian, Franca asked with unusual anticipation, "Um, was your Flying with a Sword ability shareable?"

"Flying with a Sword?" Although Lumian had spent more than half a month in the Dream City, it was not a long time, and the information he could access could not be comprehensive. He didn't know much about this relatively "obscure and niche" term.

However, he quickly connected the literal meaning with his own experience of flying on Coat Rack, and said with a laugh, "I get it, it can be shared."

"This is formed by a combination of the ability to 'weaponize' any object and the ability to manipulate Fireball."

"Although I can only share one ability with you at a time, it doesn't mean you have to use them simultaneously to complete the combination."

Franca's eyes shone even brighter:

"Can I try it now?"

Lumian couldn't help but chuckle:

"Of course you can, but remember, it can only be within a 10-kilometer radius."

"Weaponized items don't revert to normal and break down as quickly, but once they're outside the team's effective range, you'll lose control of the attached Flames."

Franca was a little disappointed, but also felt it was acceptable.

"Okay, 10 kilometers it is then."

She thought for a moment, then added, "To exceed 10 kilometers, you have to stay close to me the whole time and not let the distance grow too large? Hmm, you can stand on the back half of my flying sword..."

The leader of the "Hunter" team is undoubtedly the "Hunter," and the 10-kilometer radius is calculated with him as the center.

If there is more than one "Hunter" in a team, there will only be one leader, the one with the highest Sequence. If there is more than one person with the highest Sequence, they will fight each other to determine who is superior.

"That's right," Lumian confirmed Franca's statement.

Franca immediately beamed with joy:

"Let's begin, let's take a stroll within a 10-kilometer radius first."

"Then we'll fly on our swords again, hmm, and call Jenna along..."

Just as she finished speaking, Franca suddenly sensed something and took out a Vanity Mirror from Hidden Pocket in her clothes.

As she took it, she said to Lumian, "My only Subordinate has sent a message."

Although the Disease Church had several Priest and bishops, and the Market District had Gang leaders at Franca's beck and call, the one who actually led them, assigned tasks, and received reports was mainly Jenna.

Franca only had one true Subordinate, and that was Niseya, a "Witch" who was an undercover agent for the Emperor Party's Witch Sect Cult.

Of course, Niseya is now the "Pleasure Witch".

"Stay vigilant," Lumian cautioned.

This concerns the Witch Sect and involves Special Mirror World, so we must be extra careful from now on.

"Mmm." As Franca nodded, she saw a stream of light unfold into Intisian on the surface of the Mirror.

Louis Gustav has mysteriously disappeared.

Louis Gustav has mysteriously disappeared? Franca's eyes narrowed.

Louis Gustav, the leader of That One Emperor Party, the man Conspiracy to overthrow the current government, and the one with some connection to Roselle in the Mirror, has mysteriously disappeared?
