Chapter 628: Mirror Moon
At night, at the Starry Lake, under the full moon in the sky, the eight-limbed, eight-eyed Gosmore was flying rapidly above the lake, looking at the almost paralyzed Mirror Moon Golem in the distance. Although she was covered in blood at this time, the wounds on her body had almost recovered. With the help of the syringe tonic, the series of injuries that Dorothy had transferred to her before had almost recovered.
With a cold look in her eyes, Gasemore flew at high speed close to the lake surface. The wind waves caused by her high-speed flight reached the water surface below, causing a series of shock waves on the water surface. After Francisco fell, it seemed that no one could stop Gasemore, so she had to go to the temple now to put an end to everything that happened tonight.
Standing somewhere on top of the collapsed golem, Odfitch stared at Gosmore who was approaching at high speed from a distance. He was originally frowning, but he couldn't help but sighed and then spoke slowly.
"I've decided to stop here, so I'll help you a little bit now."
As he said that, Odki once again controlled the Mirror Moon Golem and launched an attack on the attacking Gosmore. As Odki's spiritual power had almost reached the safety threshold he set for himself, any more would drain his emergency spiritual power reserved for dealing with his own emergency. So he did not waste too much spiritual power to let the golem start standing up again, but simply activated the golem's ability to control the wind, creating a sky full of invisible wind blades to slash at Gosmore.
In a moment, countless wind blades attacked Gusmore at high speed like raindrops. Facing the attack of the wind blades, Gusmore immediately began to dodge in the air, avoiding one wind blade after another, and countless sharp wind sounds whistled by her ears. Gusmore used the blood thorns in her hand to break some wind blades, but the wind blades, which were a flying and continuous control skill, would not transmit pain. The Mirror Moon Golem would not be affected by the skill, just like when it controlled the tornado before.
Compared to Francesco's fireball, the wind blades released by the golem were more numerous and faster. Even Gosmore had to spend more energy and movement to dodge, and occasionally he would be slightly scratched by the wind blades, but that was all. The wind blades did not have the powerful power of the fireball that was usually enough to knock Gosmore down.
While dodging the wind blades, Gosmore continued to push the golem towards him. Although his speed was hindered by the height to a certain extent, it was still not slow, and he would reach the statue soon.
"boom!"
At this moment, a sudden explosion occurred on Gusmore's body. In a burst of flames, one side of Gusmore's body was blown to pieces, and one arm was blown off. Gusmore lost his balance for a moment and fell into the lake, his face covered in blood and showing obvious surprise.
“Hmm!”
The sudden explosion made Gusmore a little bit at a loss. She didn't know how the explosion happened to her all of a sudden. She didn't see any objects like fireballs flying towards her. Theoretically, the golem's wind blade should not explode.
Although she was attacked by such a sudden explosion, Gusmore didn't pay too much attention to it. After searching for the attacker but finding no one, she grabbed the arm that was blown off and reattached it to her body. After quickly recovering from the injury, she continued to dodge the wind blades and fly towards the golem. Not long after she flew, another explosion inexplicably occurred on her body, which directly shattered most of her lower abdomen. Gusmore was almost blown down again.
"What's this!?"
Facing these two consecutive explosions, Gasemore's eyes widened with anger and confusion. She didn't understand where the explosions that suddenly occurred on her body came from. She didn't sense any other trajectory approaching her except the wind blade!
These were actually the effects produced by Dorothy using the full moon water monster and magnetic bomb. In the temple, Dorothy controlled the corpses on the shore to use iron sheets and explosives to create magnetic bombs, and then manipulated the bombs to fly towards Gusmore. The flying speed of Dorothy's magnetic flying body was not actually very fast, and Gusmore could have avoided it with her fast speed, but it would not be effective if it hit the full moon water monster.
When Odditch controlled the golem Gosmore to launch a large number of wind blades, Gosmore immediately focused her energy on dealing with the wind blades. When facing so many wind blades, she subconsciously thought that the only flying projectiles she had to face were wind blades. At this time, Dorothy let the corpse release the magnetic bomb into the air, and then let the full moon water monster lurking in the lake activate its ability, making Gosmore hallucinate and ignore the existence of flying objects other than wind blades, so that the magnetic bomb successfully approached and exploded next to Gosmore. Under the attack of Odditch's large number of wind blades, Gosmore's actions were restricted, and Dorothy was able to barely search for the enemy.
The two successful sneak attacks made Gasemore very embarrassed for a while. But she was not completely stupid. After being sneak attacked twice, she had some ideas in her mind.
"This... is an illusion! It's the same illusion as before! It's that monster causing trouble!"
After recovering her body again, Gusmore created several blood needles. She did not use these blood needles to attack the golem, but instead stabbed it with her own body.
All of a sudden, a pain several times stronger than ordinary injuries began to stimulate Gusmore's nerves. However, as a high-ranking member of the Eight-Pointed Nest, Gusmore was already very familiar with and understood pain. He quickly endured the pain without even making much of a sound.
"Ha...ha...under the cruel gift from the Queen of the Deep Web...there is no room for any fantasy..."
In the Eight Peaks, those who suffer torture are not just the captured criminals and torture slaves. Because of the cruel and special domination system of the Eight Peaks, it is common for superiors to torture subordinates. This is often not for punishment but for fun. High-level extraordinary people torture mid-level extraordinary people, and mid-level people torture low-level people, and ultimately the pain falls on the torture slaves. Every person who rises from a low-level to a high-level extraordinary person in the Eight Peaks also bears layers of torture along the way. As a sorcerer, Gosmore will even bear extreme torture from the Spider Queen's will during large-scale sacrifices.
Therefore, the pain that Gasemore was enduring now was enough to make others faint, but it was completely bearable for her. She could even rely on this extreme and continuous pain to stimulate her spirit, especially to resist hallucinations.
As expected, after casting the blood needle on herself, Gsmore could see the bomb that was guided by magnetism and attacked her. Then she grinned and gritted her teeth and continued to fly against the wind blades and the golem. Although the effect of the pain casting made Gsmore's mental state begin to become confused, her evasion ability decreased, and the number of times she was injured by the wind blades increased sharply, these wind blades could not kill her.
Using pain to stimulate her mind, Gusmore resolved Dorothy's attack and continued to push the golem closer, but this series of entanglements had already wasted a lot of Gusmore's time. Although Gusmore's mental stimulation of herself could temporarily free her from the trouble of hallucinations, it also greatly interfered with Gusmore's mobility. Her speed in rushing towards the golem slowed down significantly, which gave Dorothy more time to prepare.
Inside the Mirror Moon Golem, in the balance room where the original ritual was held, Dorothy was sitting cross-legged silently in front of the statue that looked very similar to her own. She closed her eyes and silently gained insights.
Now Dorothy is making an attempt, a bold attempt. She wants to use the power of a mysterious writer to materialize a legend that once spread throughout the land of Prote.
"In the past, Arthur and his friends killed an evil spirit on the shore of Mirror Lake. When the head of the evil spirit fell to the ground, ripples appeared in the Mirror Lake, and a fairy rose from it. Seeing that Arthur and his friends were brave and fearless, the fairy in the lake wanted to reward them personally. She took out three gifts for the warriors to choose from..."
"In the past, there was a foolish farmer who fell in love with the mistress who lived in seclusion in the castle. He heard that the mistress was extremely beautiful, but because of the strict guards, he had never seen her. The farmer, who was eager to see the mistress's appearance, got inspiration when he looked in the mirror. He went to the lake where the mistress often went at night, intending to find the mistress's reflection in the lake and see her beauty..."
"Once upon a time, there lived a powerful and arrogant tiger king in the forest. He dominated the forest and ruled over all the beasts. He thought he was invincible. Until a fox told the tiger king that he saw a beast as powerful as him in the lake..."
Dorothy silently recited many ancient and modern common folk tales. These tales have their own characteristics and themes. Some praise the king, some sing love, some are absurd and funny, some punish villains, and some are warnings to the world...
These Protégé legends from different times were read out by Dorothy at a high speed. Some of these stories were heard by Dorothy when she was a child, some were heard by Dorothy before, and some were seen in Lord Barrett's research materials. Although their contents were different, they all had a common feature, that is, the same character appeared in them.
