"Oh~"
Noya snapped out of her excitement and began to calmly carry out the tasks assigned to her.
Although this dragon body lacks the extraordinary talent of the Blue Dragon in terms of Psionic Energy, at least its physical strength is sufficient.
So Noya used a method familiar to every player to guide Cuiske's position: the "blood-selling strategy."
Ed soon received a message from the King of Domination:
What exactly are your plans?
Ed thought for a moment and said:
Even if Adelaide cannot be killed, his wings must be clipped.
"I want Cuiske, Margaret is for you, how about it?"
Neither of them mentioned what to do with Adelaide, as if they had already tacitly agreed that today's battle could not end with the defeat of this vampire grand duke.
After a moment of silence, the King of Domination asked:
"Is Cuiske important to you?"
Ed gave an affirmative answer:
"I need him to prove the legitimacy of the Second Holy See."
"A reason why it's boring."
The King of Domination did not reply and continued his battle with Adelaide.
Ed also turned his gaze to Cuiske.
Cuiske, who was being ganged up on by plant dragons and half-tree people, suddenly had a flash of inspiration and turned to look at Ed as well.
The giant and the boy locked eyes, and time seemed to stand still at that moment.
The next moment, Ed stepped forward and charged towards the giant in front of him.
This scene immediately alerted Cuiske.
The people of the half-tree kept pestering each other, but ultimately they were only at the Middle Tier.
The plant dragon appeared enormous, but its strength wasn't much greater than his own.
However, given the achievements of this "Stained Ones Project, he is by no means a force to be underestimated.
The Tree God is the creator of this world. Even if the opponent only obtained one-tenth of the Creator's Authority, I have absolutely no chance of winning today.
But looking at the opponent's elaborate plan, a sliver of hope arose in Cuiske's heart—
The saying goes that brute force can overcome any technique; Ed's plan, layer upon layer, seems to suggest that his strength is not as great as Cuiske had anticipated.
Then, a fight is still possible!
The willow giant shuddered, briefly forcing the half-tree man and the plant dragon to retreat.
Then, with a sudden burst of strength, he twisted off one of his hands and threw it towards Ed.
The right hand of this person in a vegetative state began to transform during the flight, and by the time it landed, it had become an individual the same size as a normal person.
This individual's appearance is almost identical to that of the later Cuiske, with even more refined armor and body, looking like a miniature figurine model.
As the model's eyes lit up, Ed instantly felt a pressure from High Tier being. Cuiske also seemed to have a portion of his awareness of this body, indicating that it was not a simple clone.
Drawing on the similarities and differences between himself and Cuiske's alter ego, Ed took a moment from his busy schedule to begin pondering—
He can Descent clones through the Resurrection Tree, Cuiske can use this "cutting" method to create clones. Even Antiya Lisi has the ability to "instantly replace".
One instance might be a coincidence, but with so much experience already, it's hard for Ed to believe it's still just a coincidence.
So this seems to be related to the fact that they all primarily Plant Compatibility as a key attribute?
In other words, beings whose primary attribute is Plant Compatibility will have various alternative methods after they grow to a certain stage.
What about Animal Compatibility? Or between Psionic Energy and Mechanical Compatibility powers?
Ed planned to think about this issue more deeply after he returned.
He only found the two Cuiske, one big and one small, in front of him somewhat comical.
In order for the plan to be implemented smoothly, I must also demonstrate some real skills.
"No one can stop Father's resurrection, not even the Tree God!"
Cuiske seemed to enter a state of frenzied growth, and countless Aberration plants began to grow wildly on his body.
Ed appeared much calmer; at this moment, the knight's sword, which housed Noya's soul, had gone out to fight alone in the form of a plant dragon.
He didn't think about looking for any new weapons; he simply raised his hands quite calmly.
Two large mouths covered with sharp teeth have quietly opened in the palm of your hand.
Beneath Ed's feet, the tender green waves lifted his body, making it appear from a distance as if he were walking on the waves.
"Bang!"
Cuiske launched the first attack; although the projectiles he fired after shrinking his body were small, they were surprisingly fast.
A familiar-looking barrier of plants appeared layer upon layer before Ed.
After a series of muffled explosions, Ed gripped the spent bullet in his hand.
How could you...?
Cuiske looked at this familiar ability with astonishment.
Isn't this the skill he used when defending against the King of Domination Domination's javelin?
Although they weren't using the same type of Aberration plant, wasn't that layered defense from all directions the same method they used back then?
The person in front of me learned it after just one glance?
While Cuiske was in shock, Ed was still confused about what had happened.
He hasn't even started to show his true abilities yet, so why does Cuiske look like he's already been spoiled?
If you're this surprised now, won't you be scared to death in a little while?
I just copied one of your skills, didn't I?
Who hasn't played a few AAA games or watched a few action-packed anime in their past life?
You're clutching a skill that stacks shields like a precious treasure, unaware that it's already commonplace in the creative realm of another world.
"Oh? You seem to have a little trouble accepting this?"
Ed toyed with the now completely lifeless seed pellet, looking at Cuiske:
"What about this one?"
His mouthparts opened in his palm, and the seed was instantly swallowed.
Using High Tier position to pressure a seed, the opponent naturally cannot withstand such pressure.
In the blink of an eye, Ed saw Little Green notification:
[Genes collected: Split-Pod Pansy ]
Ed smirked and raised his hand like a copycat ninja.
A clump of plants Spread from his palm; although the stems were somewhat slender, the fruits were quite plump.
The fruit, laden with seeds, slowly split open into three segments, then the edges tightened slightly.
"Bang!"
A seed identical to the one used by Cuiske was launched with force.
Under the cover of the plant armor, the attack only left a small dent on Cuiske's body.
But this was enough to shock Cuiske even more than before.
If he was merely shocked and angry when his opponent learned his techniques, then seeing this scene filled Cuiske with terror.
This is actually possible?!
