Chapter 620 When a Warrior Has a Weapon

With this set of equipment, Aihua immediately felt confident.

He immediately raised his hand and placed it on Origen's chest with great skill. He then began to diligently try to use the "holy healing" that came with his equipment.

Lay on Hands is strictly different from Illumination, and priests of the church do not learn this healing ability.

It is essentially a spell, not a divine art.

The mystical art of "Holy Healing" is called "Holy" art, which is a skill of the Paladin series. It belongs to the same series as spells such as "Holy Sword" and "Holy Shield".

Although Bishop Mathers had taught Pastor Aiwass the sacred skills he needed to learn, and he had indeed once been a pastor, his true profession now was Guardian of the Holy Sepulchre—a Paladin-style occupation.

Simply put, Mathers actually knows the art of sword and shield.

That's why it was possible that he would be controlled by the angry heroic spirit in the red-handled sword and become a "Cursed Paladin".

In fact, Oswald's class could be considered a Paladin. The Theocracy's "Guardian of Dawn and Dusk" inheritance series is essentially a Paladin lineage. However, due to its immense combat power and lack of internal oversight by the Holy Order system, these inheritances are kept secret and have rarely been professionalized. Bishop Mathers also advanced to Guardian of the Holy Sepulchre under the supervision of the Theocracy.

It was not until the end of version 2.0 that the Paladin appeared in the player's class list as an optional melee class.

Contrary to conventional wisdom, the Paladin in Ouroboros isn't a tank class, but rather a damage dealer. Also known as the "buff sword," its advantage lies in its ability to heal both itself and its enemies. Normally, it relies on stacking various short-lived buffs for additional damage.

The life-saving necklace that Isabel gave to Aiwass also had Lay on Healing, but Aiwass had never used it.

On the one hand, it’s because Aiwass himself has the ability to recover blood... On the other hand, it’s because the holy healing spell on the necklace is gender-locked and can only be used by women.

It’s not that Aiwass can’t transform... but when he’s in transformed state, he will be shattered at the slightest touch, so there’s no need to recover his health.

This was the first time Aiwas used holy healing.

No one had ever taught him how to use it before. Furthermore, this spell didn't require mana, so Aiwass couldn't simply pour mana into it.

He closed his eyes, followed the mysterious feeling, and tried to sense the sacred glow in the equipment.

Aiwass soon sensed a bright light like the midday sun coming from his body.

Is it like illumination magic?

Aiwass tried to visualize this light dispelling the darkness from Origen.

But it obviously failed. If it had succeeded, it would have been in the realm of "illumination" rather than "sacred".

Fortunately, Origen had been kept alive by the "Tree Demon", otherwise, after repeated failures, Aiwass might have been sweating with anxiety.

Although Origen was a warrior, his intelligence was obviously not low. He obviously guessed what Aiwass was doing - of course, it could also be because Heleqin himself was not good at holy healing.

"Sir, try to gather and control the light!"

Origen taught Aiwass: "Tame the light with your heart and turn it into flowing water!"

Suddenly, a dialog box popped up in front of Aiwas.

[Origen is teaching you "sacredness". Do you want to pay 562 public experience points to master this mysterious skill?]

[Your remaining public experience is insufficient to master this mysterious skill]

"……Um?"

Aiwass was stunned for a moment.

He was not surprised that Origen, a lizardman warrior, actually knew something about the skills of the Paladin; nor was he surprised that Origen's understanding of this sacred skill was so superficial that a basic skill could cost more than 500 public experience points.

But it was the first time that Aiwas realized that it was possible to learn skills during the promotion ceremony!

Since Aiwass could suddenly pop up this box, it meant that Origen's understanding was at least partly correct - so Aiwass tried to tame the blazing light in his heart.

Suddenly, the light became cool.

It felt like walking into the shade after being exposed to the sun for a long time on a scorching summer day. Instantly, I felt a chill in my head.

The white light also wrapped around Aiwass's wrist, then transformed into a curved and trembling wave, connecting to Origen! The brightness looked like an incandescent lamp, and even if you looked at it for a moment, it would not feel dazzling, but if you stared at it for a long time, you would still feel dizzy.

That feeling, Aiwass felt very familiar -

It was just like the feeling when he poured his magic power into the red-handled sword and used the "Holy Sword Technique"!

After one holy healing spell was completed, Aiwass immediately used it a second time.

Under the dual treatment of Holy Healing and the Dryad's Halo, Origen's near-death injuries recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Origen's left arm healed fastest—he deftly peeled away the embedded lava chunks one by one, leaving behind bloody pits. He then violently twisted his bent right arm back into its proper alignment. As for the remaining infections, distortions, and foreign matter, his healing abilities could resolve these minor abnormalities.

A powerful warrior who could fight the "Wildfire Giant" Utgarochi, who was forcibly blessed to the sixth energy level by his equipment, for three minutes without dying, was forcibly healed from the brink of death to a healthy state close to full blood by Aiwass in just half a minute!

Iverson felt comfortable and transparent all over.

——To challenge the BOSS, you still need to have both healing and tank professions!

In previous battles where Aiwass had challenged powerful foes, he had always been the tankiest member of the squad. Only after Haina had reached the fourth level of advancement could she be considered a semi-tank. She had the ability to play a frontline role, but she still lacked combat experience and support awareness, so Aiwass couldn't fully trust her.

And now, Aiwass finally met the top front rower Origen.

The only regret is that he didn't enter the game as a healer this time...

Aiwass looked back with some concern at the Night Demon who was still fighting fiercely with Utgaroch, and asked Origen, "You have fought with Utgaroch... What do you think?"

"So that giant's name is Utgarochi..."

Origen chewed the name slowly, committing it to memory. "One thing I can be sure of is that he is at least not good with a battle axe. He can fight, but not with a great axe. It must not be his primary weapon.

"If he continues to fight with his axe and doesn't cast spells, I can keep him company for at least a few hours. But the only problem is..."

He said, looking at the weapon with only the handle left in his hand with some regret: "My old friend... is still too fragile for this level of battle."

Aiwass took one look at the handle and recognized its composition—recognized it as a history student.

——This is the "Nephthys Guard Halberd" of ancient Horus.

These are the weapons held by the guards in "Golden Dawn"!

As equipment, they are not even purple equipment... They are just mass-produced blue equipment without extraordinary abilities.

Because Nephthys was merely an apostle of the Sun God. Horus worshipped the Sun God, the Sun God, and his many "Sun Apostles", and worshipped them as gods.

As a mere apostle of the Celestial God, Nephthys neither had the power nor the leisure to sanctify the equipment of all the Nephthys guards. She could only transform their "Nephthys Amulets" into extraordinary accessories.

"etc……"

Aiwass remembered something.

When Origen fought Utgaroch before, he had clearly been carrying the silver lance that belonged to Helechin. But even after Origen's weapon was burned to ashes by the wildfire and he was blown away, he still refused to use Helechin's weapon.

"—Why didn't you use my gun before?"

Aiwass asked in a deep voice.

"I don't want to spoil it, Your Excellency."

Origen replied without hesitation: "I am not sure whether the giant's flames, which can burn the earth, will harm your holy spear. Therefore, I will protect it with my life."

Iverson felt helpless: "You..."

Suddenly, he felt alert.

Origen got up from the ground without hesitation - at a speed so fast that Aiwass could only barely see a shadow, he clenched his fists and rushed behind Aiwass.

Suddenly, countless meteorites flew in the sky.

The ground in the distance rumbled and shook. The surrounding trees shook violently, cracking and snapping, and countless leaves flew into the air.

And a huge meteorite with a diameter of at least ten meters was flying straight towards them!

"Get out of the way! Origen!"

Aiwass shouted without hesitation.

This thing can't hit him at all, he can fly away in an instant with Pegasus. There's no need to block this thing for him——

"It's just a small stone of this size."

Origen said in a deep voice.

His voice was still as steady as ever, giving people a strong sense of security.

He suddenly rose from the ground, and with a roar, he soared into the sky.

He punched the meteorite hard!

I saw a circle of shock waves visible to the naked eye spreading around.

The meteorite was instantly shattered into pieces, scattering in a ring. A shower of fist-sized meteorites rained down upon the forest.

At this moment, Aiwass suddenly realized why Origen insisted on smashing this meteorite that no one could hit.

Because above the original flight path of the meteorite was the tree demon summoned by Aiwass!

Origen received treatment from the dryad and now has to protect it.

Just like he was willing to fight for Aiwass!

Aiwass's mind moved and he suddenly had an inspiration.

If Origen's adaptive weapon is a halberd...

He suddenly remembered that he had a phantom card that he rarely used.

"Origen!"

Aiwass shouted loudly, and flew to his side on the Pegasus which suddenly increased in speed, passing by Origen who was falling unscathed in the air.

The purple card with the "Wheel of Fortune" pattern on it, which he was holding in his right hand, suddenly turned into stars and dissipated.

A ferocious long spear that was shining with thunder and lightning, majestic and cruel, was gently thrown over by Aiwass.

"Lend it to you!"

Aiwass raised his voice.

When a warrior has a weapon in his hand——

[Equipment Card: Thunderbolt Halberd (Wheel of Fortune)]

[Required: Wind 3 or Dark 3]

【Action, Summon, Repeat】

[Effect: Summon "Thunderbolt Halberd" (Supernatural weapon - Halberd, Heavy, Punishment, Armor Break, with "Demon Slayer" module, Thunder attribute attack)]

[Effect: Use again to increase the holder's "Lightning Affinity" level by 3, lasting for one minute]

——Thundering Halberd!

This is a genuine extraordinary weapon, the companion weapon of the demon punisher and the source of power!

A trace of astonishment and shock flashed across Origen's eyes, but his body instinctively leaned forward - even though the lightning halberd that was flashing with crackling lightning triggered Origen's dangerous instinct and was constantly warning him of the danger of this weapon.

But the lizardman warrior Origen was still willing to believe what Aiwass said, and stubbornly and loyally reached out his hand to the center of the thundercloud where thunder was erupting.

As Origen gripped the Thunder Halberd tightly, a flash of lightning scanned his entire body.

Holding a weapon in hand, Origen suddenly erupted with visible storms from his body, and his entire aura suddenly changed!
