<...Chapter 197 Eggshell
In fact, the strength of these alien god believers is not strong, and they can even be said to be at the bottom of the same level.
Apart from that special state of extreme fanaticism and confusion, all their strength was not acquired through their own cultivation, but was a gift from the old gods.
Compared with normal professionals, their strength seems superficial and weak, and they often behave differently from normal professionals.
This is also the reason why this seventh-level believer in the alien god had almost no power to resist and was caught by Jom without even trying to escape.
Being tricked by such a group of over-the-top idiots, and even being turned into a girl and thrown into tentacles and locked up for several months, Evenny felt particularly ashamed.
"Although their strength is indeed average, Evan, the secret ritual array that trapped you and your guards was also set up by them."
Anvis just smiled at Evenny, who was a little upset.
"That is to say, among the high-ranking members of the Moon Calling Secret Cult, there must be opponents of the same level as us. The description of us as trash is probably unfair."
"So, Evan, do you know what this eggshell-like thing is and what it does?"
"I do know a little."
Sighing, Evenny looked at Anvis and nodded somewhat depressed.
"Based on its unique power, I think you should have some guesses, but I'm not sure."
Holding the eggshell-shaped wonder, the girl gently tapped the extremely stable pale white crystal structure.
"Although it may sound absurd, this eggshell seems to be the eggshell of Rai, the patron saint that the islanders believe they have."
"Rai's...eggshell?"
Although he had expected it, Avis still found it a little hard to believe when he actually heard this speculation.
Since it has a snake body, does it lay eggs?
"The old gods did not appear out of thin air. If we trace back infinitely into the past, we can also trace them back to their original origins."
Evian explained.
“According to the myths on the island, in ancient times, when the purple moon was closest to the earth, an egg was born.
The god [Rayi] was born from an egg, walked on the earth, and was the incarnation of the moon, holding the power of the moon and the stars.
"Although it is just an unverified legend, it can well explain the sublime power of this eggshell."
"As an eggshell, its concept is 'protection'. If we extend it further, it can also involve 'nurturing' and 'rebirth'."
As she spoke, Evenny stroked the surface of the eggshell.
I don't know what she did, but the pale white glow of the eggshell suddenly lit up.
A layer of crystal white, semi-solid protective shield like an eggshell suddenly covered her body, looking as beautiful and exquisite as a crystal work of art.
"This is the fourth-level [Mage Shield] that I cast using the eggshell as a medium. You can try its defensive capabilities yourself."
Evenny explained what she had done.
Avis nodded, looking at the thin shield that seemed very fragile, and casually rubbed out a ball of extremely cold light and pressed it directly on the shield.
No response—
There was truly no change. Although the rising ice flames continued to hit the protective wall, the protective shield did not produce even the slightest ripple, as if it had never been attacked at all.
"No reaction at all?"
Looking at this scene, Avis was truly surprised.
In his estimation, although it might not be broken, there shouldn't be no change at all.
"Evan, can I have my guard test this?"
"sure--"
Evenny nodded nonchalantly and made a 'go ahead' gesture.
"Joum, I'm in trouble."
With Avis's approval, Jom stepped forward, and a simple rapier made entirely of ice-blue magic appeared in his hand.
"I'm sorry, Lord Evan!"
Aiming at the shield, he struck it with his sword with incredible precision and swiftness.
This time, under Jom's stab, the shield flickered slightly, and the part that was directly hit by the tip of the sword was slightly concave inward, but it still firmly blocked Jom's rapier.
Qiaom's eyes focused, and the tip of the rapier in his hand suddenly flashed a bright star. The terrifying magic power focused on one point, like a meteorite passing through the sky, and suddenly thrust forward with a sword.
Secret Sword Skill - [Starfall]
This is a secret sword skill specifically used to destroy shields. Under Jom's sword, the protective shield flashed slightly, and was finally completely pierced, and then shattered into pieces like a real eggshell.
But when the shield was shattered, the fragments did not disappear directly, but turned into streams of light and merged into Ivnie's body, causing her power aura to increase significantly.
"This shield has extremely strong defense even among the eighth-level ones, Lord Avis."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
After taking back the magic sword, Joem told the result of his test in a deep voice.
“And that’s not all.”
Evian answered.
“When the shield is broken, the fragments will not disappear directly, but will transform into a special power and merge into your body, temporarily enhancing all your abilities.
Just now, my strength has increased to beyond the limit of level 6, but it has not yet reached the level of level 7.
The extent of this improvement may be related to how long the shield lasts, but I'm not sure."
The blue-haired girl returned the eggshell to Anvis with some regret and told him the test results. After the test , the three of them left the underground maze with the seventh-level black-robed priest .
Following Evenny's suggestion, the three did not return to Lavanlais, but went directly to a hidden underground shelter at the junction of the wasteland and the forest.
There, the power of the island's night curse would be weakened to a safe level.
They lived there for about half a month before Evenny was captured by the secret cult.
And there was a reason for bringing along the seventh-rank black-robed priest.
Although his strength was at the bottom and his soul was polluted by the power of the old gods and was worthless, the body of a seventh-level professional had sufficient value in itself.
Ivnie planned to use a special secret technique to temporarily refine it into a summoned creature similar to the undead to protect herself, so that they could quickly gain a pseudo-seventh-level combat force.
At the same time, on the black-robed priest, Anvis found a necklace that was completely different from those of other pagans, as well as a black robe of better quality.
The necklace was black and green all over, with a very strong alien power. What was engraved in the center was not a twisted pentagram, but a purple moon.
This is a better medium for prophecy than those low-level necklaces. However, after Avis learned the truth about the island from Evan, it had a new use.
As a material for the 'Dream Guide', it opens the door to the island's dream world.
In the family’s basic mysticism course, there was a special lesson on how to enter the dream world.
Its scope covers the introduction and basic rules of the dream world, the various ways to enter the dream world, the drawing of dream arrays, and how to use special items to create specific dream guides, etc.
The dream world is not a complete whole, but like a multidimensional plane, with 'Univar's Dream' as the main world and countless small dream worlds like stars attached to the main world.
The dream layer of this island is also a small dream world similar to this.
The function of the Dream Guide is to locate a specific dream world and lead the holder into it in conjunction with the dream array.
