"Armor"
In other words, "Fantasy Armed Manifestation"
This is a skill that every melee beastmaster dreams of, as it can greatly enhance the beastmaster's own attribute panels, allowing humans to have direct combat power that is comparable to or even exceeds that of pets of the same level.
However, learning this skill is also extremely difficult.
Except for a very small number of ancient pets that can be called holy relics, they may be born with this racial skill, such as Aurora's holy spear "Rongomyniad".
Most pets can only master this ability through acquired learning.
Moreover, "Armorization" requires a very high degree of compatibility between the pet and the beastmaster's soul.
Only when the souls have achieved complete resonance can the pet become one with the beastmaster, turning into a sword and shield that the master can control with ease.
In the past, Char had always envied Airola's majestic armor, which looked like a silver knight.
...
...
He chose the Silver Spirit as the contract object for his third soul contract, in large part because the Silver Spirit, which possessed the racial attribute of "metal", had a good affinity for learning "armoring".
And now, with the help of the "Advanced Armoring Secret Potion", Char's long-cherished dream has finally become a reality.
certainly--
To defeat an ancient god.
Even though this ancient god has become much weaker with the passage of time, and even though He is still sealed.
Even though He resides in a severely damaged human body, He is still restricted by the Black King's spiritual command. Compared to the power He can exert at His peak, the power He can exert at this moment is less than one percent.
However, "armoring" alone is far from enough.
In Char's mind, pieces of information were flashing across the system screen frantically.
[The proficiency of the "Red" racial skill "Filthy Blood" has achieved a breakthrough, and has been promoted from "Perfect" to "Extraordinary"]
[…has been promoted from “superb” to “superb”]
[Red's racial skill "Darkborn" has achieved a breakthrough in proficiency, and has been promoted from "Perfect" to "Extraordinary"]
[…has been promoted from “superb” to “superb”]
I didn't check the benefits of the final settlement of the previous novice mission.
At this moment, Char directly added the massive amount of experience points gained from the mission settlement to the red skill panel.
Moreover, points were added to "Filthy Blood" and "Dark Descendant", which are the most useless and may even have negative effects in the eyes of ordinary people.
As the points were added, Charana lingered on the blood-red armor all over his body.
Traces that looked like they were burned by red flames were imprinted on the surface of the blood-colored armor, transforming into one ancient symbol after another.
Char didn't recognize these symbols, but as the soul fluctuations transmitted to him by Red came, Char's mind became clear about the origin of the symbols.
That is the now-lost ancient Abyssal language, a language just like the ancient dragon language and the ancient elven language—
Each character in this ancient language represents power in itself and can guide the rules of a certain plane.
The ancient abyssal language itself symbolizes the origin of the abyss.
Almost at the moment when these symbols burned on the armor appeared, an extremely high and deep whisper suddenly came from Char's mind.
That kind of mumbling was far crazier than the evil god's mumbling that Char had heard when he came into contact with pollutants before, as if it came directly from the bottom of the abyss.
Even though Char had been exposed to many pollutants, specialized in illusion, and had already honed his mental strength, when he heard the whispers, he still felt as if his entire body and flesh were about to spin out of control.
It seemed as if blood flowers might bloom and flesh buds might grow on his body at any time.
But, at the same time.
Xia realized that the dim light that originally gave him an endless sense of oppression suddenly became friendly at this moment.
It was as if it was an extension of his consciousness and limbs, and he could control it with just a thought.
Xia took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the urge to sprout flesh and blood all over his body.
He knew very well that he could not hold out for long in the whispering coming from the bottom of the abyss. Ten seconds at most, his soul would completely spin out of control in the whispering and he would become a slave of the abyss.
But, just these ten seconds are enough.
The glow of the blood moon, and the halo of dusk—
All of them gathered towards Char, condensed on his blood armor, and were transformed into pure magic power, which was stored in Char's body.
This is the significance of Xia Ya adding the two skills of "Foul Blood" and "Dark Descendant".
Normally, they are indeed a purely negative effect, not only requiring Red to be distracted to suppress them, but also causing it to lose the elemental race's inherent abilities such as "elementization".
However, since they can be reflected on the system's skill panel, it means that these two skills are not just simple side effects.
Just like now, in front of the vast power of the abyss.
Relying on two extremely high-level racial skills, Char turned the enemy's home ground into his own advantage.
In the distance, the incarnation of dusk that was lodging in Norton was at a loss again.
This was the second time that this ancient creature showed surprise.
Although what He is controlling at the moment is a pure-blooded human body, compared to the sealed original body, its affinity for the abyss is undoubtedly greatly reduced.
But after all, this place also houses his remaining divinity and authority. Even if it is a title-level six-ring cult leader, unless his faith is so devout that even his body has been transformed by the abyss, his affinity can never be compared with His.
But at this moment, He saw that the human who had not even reached the fourth ring had actually been recognized by the Abyss, allowing Char to borrow the power of the Abyss at will.
If he hadn't devoured Norton's memory and knew the past of the young man in front of him, he would have been a pure-blooded human.
The incarnation of dusk would probably think that the other party was a newborn evil god who had just been born from the bottom of the abyss and was blessed by the will of the abyss himself.
…
Char's gaze was silently fixed on the Dusk Incarnation in front of him, who was looking confused as he realized that his power was being taken away by NTR.
He knew that he could not maintain the state blessed by "Filthy Blood" and "Darkborn" for too long. Once his SAN value dropped, he would probably really turn into the "Son of the Abyss" who could only babble.
So, I only have one chance.
"Well, let's get started."
After leaving his last words, Char fell completely silent.
The original golden eyes slowly went out and returned to their dark color.
And in those dark eyes, light and shadow disappeared.
Calmed the ripples of longing.
Not only words - even emotions were completely blocked.
Just as he had done in previous training, Char sealed his rational, cautious side with "Tsukuyomi".
He completely handed over control of his body to Red's fighting instinct, which was transmitted through the soul contract - the fighting instinct that evolved in Char's mind from the experience of swinging the sword thousands of times.
The synchronization with the red soul has already been completed.
At this moment, in the dim halo that spread all over his body, Char's body and mind completely merged into one with the battlefield.
The next moment.
Pale blue flames swirled around his body and burned fiercely.
The magic power and the soul are boiling at the same time.
"Burning Blood"
This is the silver spirit that Char gave the name "Red". When it was young, it was unable to grow up because of the filthy curse.
This is a unique skill that he created in order to use his own clumsy body to fight against the many powerful enemies and even the objects of revenge that he imagined. It is a truly original skill.
When he was at the first level, Red could use "Burning Blood" to directly threaten Silver, who was already at the third level at that time.
And Char's talent as a Beastmaster is not only not poor, it can even be described as stunning. Both his magic power and the quality of his soul far surpass those of Beastmasters of the same rank.
So, at this moment——
Burn the body, incinerate the soul.
Blood Burning that has reached "perfect" proficiency no longer has side effects such as shortening one's lifespan.
On the contrary, the power of Burning Blood can be further enhanced with the strength of one's mind.
A pale blue flame appeared on the blood-colored one-handed sword.
It was not very dense, but a few very thin lines, like lightning, but also like blood vessels, lingering around the blood-colored one-handed sword, depicting a beautiful light texture. The magic power was gathered on the sword blade that was intertwined with red and silver, gathering the power in a spiral shape.
At this moment, most of the free abyss power in this twilight world is gathered on the edge of the one-handed sword.
Then, Char raised the bloody blade.
It was not that complicated. Compared with the gorgeous swordplay moves performed by the knight students at Saint Laurent College, it could even be described as plain and ordinary.
The next moment, the sword light fell in the direction of the incarnation of dusk.
That was the most common "slash".
…
The incarnation of dusk that occupied Norton's body came back to its senses and looked up blankly.
Then, he only saw the blood moon, which occupied his entire field of vision——
That bloody demon that looked more evil, more chaotic and crazier than this evil god.
as well as.
The slashing blow was so simple that it could hardly be more simple, yet it seemed as if it had been tempered through thousands of trials and tribulations, blocking all of His escape routes with the sword's light.
With a roaring sound.
The world was silent, with only the blood-red thunder that pierced through the sky and the earth remaining.
For the first time, great fear rose from this ancient creature named "Dusk".
Gods cannot die because they are a certain concept of the world itself.
Even if all the legends of the Western Continent were gathered at this moment, even if the master of the "Judgment Order", the Black King himself, came, it would be impossible to truly kill the concept called "Dusk".
Even if someone really used great power to annihilate every trace of Dusk Divine Power in the world, He would eventually return from the distant star realm after a long time.
However, divinity and authority can be usurped.
Dusk is still dusk.
However, the main consciousness that controls dusk can be replaced many times.
Therefore, in order to preserve oneself, divinity and authority are of the utmost importance to any being that has embarked on the path to becoming a god.
They often divide it into many parts for preservation, and would rather destroy themselves than let it fall into the hands of others. Otherwise, it would be equivalent to having one more false god to compete for their authority.
More than ten years ago, the incarnation of dusk had lost part of his divinity due to a moment of carelessness, and was disconnected from the power of his original body, thus creating the key named Sylvia, and he himself was sealed by the Brunstadt family.
And at this moment, He made the same mistake again.
The opponent was just a teenager who didn't even have four rings, and the mistake he made this time was even bigger.
In the ecstasy of breaking the seal, what He poured into this body this time was all of His remaining divinity and authority.
In the midst of the huge fear that was rising.
One ancient word after another was spoken.
The dim light surged and transformed into one barrier of the divine power of the abyss after another, blocking the incarnation of dusk.
but--
It's useless.
At that moment, the blood demon transformed by Char devoured more than 70% of the surrounding abyss power.
The power of the abyss sealed underground is indeed endless, but it takes time to replenish it.
Even if the remaining 30% was fully mobilized, how could it be compared with 70%? And that was the 70% that was enhanced by "Burning Blood".
boom--
boom--
The sword light fell straight down, piercing through one divine power barrier after another.
Then, it arrived at the old and hideous head of Norton, which was controlled by the incarnation of dusk.
The next moment, the sword light like a red meteor and the black flame of "Amaterasu" exploded at the same time.
…
The sound disappeared.
The next thing to disappear is color.
The world became silent, with only the gushing blue magic light and the scorching black flames remaining.
The light is flowing.
The light roars.
The rushing light stirred up countless whirlpools, engulfing the twisted life form once named Norton along with the darkness.
On the ground that melted in an instant, every molecule that made up this body was exposed to the scorching impact.
If it was just a simple slash and magic blast, it might not be impossible to defend against. After experiencing the previously interrupted ascension ceremony and the infusion of divinity, Norton's original human body had actually undergone a transformation.
More like a mythical creature than a person.
Even if the torso exploded and the organs were crushed in an instant, it is possible to glue the damaged flesh and blood together again by relying on the divine factor that roams within the body.
This is how Norton, controlled by the incarnation of Dusk, escaped from the explosion of the underground cavity before.
but--
This time, the self-healing ability comparable to "super-speed regeneration" lost its effect.
The cursed black flame transformed by Amaterasu burned everything without reservation.
The divine factors in the flesh and blood were burned to ashes before they could take effect.
It is impossible for ordinary flames to burn the divine factor.
But the incarnation of dusk clearly sensed a power of the same rank as his own from the black flames, a power that was extremely familiar to him.
"ash!"
"It's you! Ashes!"
"You actually teamed up with the Empire!"
"I will remember you. Only half of my body will perish. Wait for me..."
From the sea of black flames came a resentful roar that sounded like the sound of a bronze bell.
Before the resentful words were finished——
The pitch-black fireworks, along with the pale blue magic light, took everything to another world.
…
After an unknown amount of time, the huge noise finally subsided.
Dusk is broken.
The blood moon disappears.
The dust dissipated, reflecting the beautiful bright moon and the boundless starry sky above the sky again.
Norton's figure had disappeared, leaving only a huge sword mark that tore through the earth and was extremely deep.
At the bottom of the sword mark, deep and dark black flames were still burning, melting the soil and rocks, turning them into turbid fluid that flowed out.
And in the place where the incarnation of dusk once existed.
The dim light is gathering.
Finally, the light turned into a chess piece that looked like it was made of crystal.
Flowing with dusk light, gathering all divinity and authority——
"Star Cup"
