Chapter 150 The Third Use of Raising the Storm
Soros Pope's Hall, conference room.
The three archon families of the Church of War gathered together, with Duval sitting at the head of the Pope.
"I think everyone has received the oracle from the goddess, right?" he said lightly.
The other three high priests of the Archon family looked at each other.
"Yes, Your Holiness, do you know the name Li'er Stuart? I remember that the surname Stuart is related to the Cardenas family?" A burly man said in a deep voice.
In addition to the burly man, another archon high priest also looked at Dival, a tall woman.
The three archon families of the Church of War are the Cardenas family representing the war knights, the Moreno family representing the berserkers, and the Hoffman family representing the spies.
"My Lionheart Knight Albert is from the Stuart family and is the current Duke of Stuart." Duval nodded and replied.
"Is this Li'l Stuart from the Lionheart Knight family of His Holiness the Pope?" asked High Priest Sharan Hoffman.
"Yes, he is Albert's son." A smile appeared on Duval's face.
Upon hearing this, except for the high priest who belonged to the Cardenas family like Dival, the other two high priests all changed their expressions.
The oracle said that this special executive had the power to supervise church personnel, and this supervisory power even included their high priests and the Pope.
This has never happened before. In the War Church, the three archon families are the absolute authority. Every five years, the three archon families will conduct a war trial and finally select the person who can become the Pope.
The Pope and the Archon family command the entire War Church and the Kingdom of Knox, but now someone is standing above them?
It would be fine if this person was fair, but he was actually the son of the Lionheart Knight of Dival?
Sharan and the Berserker High Priest Ruget Moreno on the other side frowned. A new war trial would begin in a while and the Pope would be re-elected.
But now something unexpected has happened. This special executive officer is obviously on the same side as Duval. If it affects the war trial, this is not what they want to see.
"Anyway, I will handle the matter regarding Li Er, you don't have to worry." Dival said seriously, "Well, during this period of time, I will take some time to go to the Faro Fortress on the border of Brefil to meet with the executive. By the way, Greta also wants Li Er to be his Lionheart Knight, so it's a good opportunity to sign a contract at the same time."
Duval's tone was normal, but both Ruget and Sharan could hear Duval's pride.
The new special executive officer is a close person, and he is planning to let his daughter sign a contract with him. Doesn't this mean that he wants this special executive officer to become a member of the Cardenas family? The two of them hated Duval's words.
After a long silence, Sharan said, "Since His Holiness the Pope wants to meet with the executive officer, the Hoffman family should go with him."
Rugert on the side was stunned for a moment, then reacted a few seconds later and said quickly: "It's the same for our Moreno family!"
"Who will be in charge of the church if you all go there?" Duval frowned and objected.
"Why not just leave it to Rafar? Rafar is your younger brother and also the high priest of the church. It is enough for him to handle the affairs!" Sharan said immediately.
The last high priest, who had been silent, raised his head and saw the serious looks of Sharan and Ruget.
He said helplessly: "Then I should stay?"
Hearing his brother's words, Dival sighed.
…
Faro Fortress, Triumphal Square.
Three days had passed since he regained the power of the War Knight, and Lear was very excited.
He stood in the center of the square, and in front of him were the leaders of the other three knight orders, plus him, Hana, and Avian.
There are a total of eight mid-level professionals, one more than during the knight selection.
"Master Li Er, do you really want to fight eight of us by yourself?" Leticia asked, biting her lip.
Not only Letitia, the other two knight leaders also had unhappy expressions.
Although it was amazing that Lear fought ten people alone during the knight selection, those were just adventurers. They were Stuart's elite knights! Lear still wanted to fight eight people alone. This was naked contempt! "I'm not looking down on you. My strength is different from yours." Lear said lightly, and a powerful wave of magic power spread out.
Feeling this fluctuation of magic power, Laetitia, who was originally a little angry, widened her eyes.
"Master Li Er, have you been promoted to a higher rank?" she asked in disbelief.
"Yes, I went to the Church of War and received the blessing of the Goddess of War. I gained some new powers, so I plan to let you try it."
Li Er nodded. "I don't mean to look down on you, but I'm afraid that you alone won't be able to let me test out my new power."
After hearing this, everyone's expressions improved a little, but they still looked shocked.
As high-level professionals in their early twenties, and dual-law professionals at that, they dared not imagine how strong Li Er was.
"This time I will not use the power of arcane laws, but only the power of the laws of war." Lear added.
Everyone fell silent after hearing this. If it was a high-level professional fighting against them, that would be a different matter.
Laetitia and the others were full of fighting spirit. If Lear had just been promoted to a high rank, the eight of them would have a chance to defeat Lear! "Let's get started." Lear drew out the Night Rose, and he was ready to go.
The magic power filled with the strong breath of war laws rippled around his body. The surrounding knights stood far away, and it was Charlene who took the lead in launching the attack.
Ever since she was easily defeated by Li Er last time, she seemed very unconvinced. The previous rapier was broken, and Xia Lin replaced it with a more powerful rapier.
Lear and Charlene fought together, their swords clashed, and almost at the same time, the sound of a storm broke out around them.
The speed suddenly increased at this moment, summoning another use of the storm, enchanting the storm to oneself in exchange for faster speed and more precise destructive power.
Charlene looked at Lear's movements in disbelief. After he showed another way to use Raise the Storm in the selection competition, some people came to ask her for advice, but she ignored them. So how could Lear know how to use it? And how skilled was he? The other seven people were also stunned when they saw Lear's movements. This was the first time they saw Lear use the skills of the War Knight. Before, Lear completely relied on that terrifying swordsmanship to crush them.
Letitia and the others became more serious, and the seven of them surrounded Lear and Charlene.
They couldn't intervene with Charlene and Li'er's extreme speed, and if they were not careful they might even hurt Charlene.
War law professionals who specialize in speed are usually only spies, and war knights like Charlene who specialize in speed are extremely rare.
They looked at Charlene and then at Lear. Charlene specialized in speed, so her strength was not very strong, but Lear had no weaknesses in both strength and speed.
Is this the gift from the goddess of war? "Did you know that besides normal use and enchantment, there is a third way to use Storm Raising." Li Er said with a smile while fighting with Charlene.
"What?" Xia Lin was stunned. Her hand movements were a beat slower and she was knocked away by Li Er's sword.
After tumbling in the air for a while, Charlene finally landed and managed to steady herself.
"Watch this." Li Er glanced at Xia Lin indifferently, and the whistling wind gathered on the rapier in his hand, forming a whirlwind around the sword.
Charlene looked at this scene and frowned.
This is the power of condensing and summoning the storm, which enhances the Storm Thrust. She has used it on Lear before during the knight selection, so it is not a new usage.
As she was thinking about it, she found that the whirlwind on Li Er's sword was getting stronger and stronger, and finally formed a terrifying hurricane.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The hurricane was howling above the Triumphal Square. The rapier in Lear's hand had been completely covered by the hurricane, and the magic power in his body was being consumed greatly.
This is the third use of Call the Storm. When enchanted with the Storm, adding Storm Thrust can achieve power close to the high-level level.
However, if you stabilize the storm cyclone and continuously input magic power, you can add a hurricane to the sword, just like holding a storm sword that is dozens of meters long! Unlike the ordinary summoning of storms, which directly condenses a hurricane and sweeps out, the storm on the sword can be controlled at will, and its power has reached a high-level level! It's like Lear is holding a weapon in his hand that will withstand the ravages of a high-level storm as long as it touches it. This weapon is also dozens of meters long and can be driven at will!
Everyone was shocked by the howling storm. The violent force made many knight apprentices around "shaky" and they might be blown away if they were not careful.
Li Er maintained the state of "Storm Sword". This was the third use of summoning the storm. Only when it reached a high level would there be enough magic power to perform it! Xia Lin was stunned by the scene in front of her. She was a little unbelievable.
Li Er paused for a few seconds and stopped showing his strength. He directly swung the Storm Sword. The sword, which was more than ten meters long, swept 360 degrees at the eight people around him!
Xia Lin and the others finally reacted and tried to dodge, but the Storm Sword generated a strong suction force, and they were almost sucked over.
Except for Charlene, Avian and Letitia who escaped from the storm in time, the rest were swept into the sky by the storm.
Amidst scattered shouts, they finally fell from the sky after a long time. Hana and the other two knight captains had fainted, and they could only barely stand up from the ground.
The storm gradually subsided, and the Night Rose showed its edge again. The Storm Sword was indeed very powerful, but Lear didn't use it much in his previous life. After all, he was more agile, and such a large-scale destructive skill that was like a sitting target did not suit his style.
It's just used to show off.
The only five people left looked at Lear in a daze for a long time before they came back to their senses from the shock.
The battle is not over yet.
The five of them regrouped and rushed towards Lear again. Charlene's eyes had changed when she looked at Lear.
The Lear in front of her was completely different from the Lear she had seen before, and a certain belief in her heart was suddenly shaken.
"I'm sorry, Master Lear!" Leticia rushed towards Lear not far away.
"You naughty brother! What skills do you have that you hide from your sister!" Ivian was also a little annoyed. She had previously thought that Li'er was a mage. Although he had obtained the gift of the law of war, he might not be familiar with the skills of the war knight.
But now it seems that he is not unfamiliar with it. He is even more skilled than her!
Lear could use the method of summoning storm that Charlene had used before with ease. This was definitely not something he learned after seeing Charlene use it!
Facing the two women rushing towards him, the corners of Lear's mouth twitched slightly, but he still raised the Night Rose and rushed forward to fight with the two women.
With Lear's legendary rapier expertise, he was more than capable of fighting against the two women from Avian. While fighting, he also pointed out the shortcomings of their swordsmanship.
The other two knights' leaders not far away also joined the battle, and the battle changed from a one-on-two sword-fighting instruction battle to a one-on-four sword-fighting instruction battle.
This time, Li Er did not use powerful magic to crush them, but simply used sword skills to fight, which made Avian and the other three even more shocked.
Ivian was so angry that her teeth itched. Her stinky brother even had such superb sword skills! It looked like he had practiced for many years. She had thought that Li Er was obsessed with magic and had wasted his talent. It turned out that the clown was me?
Li Er didn't notice Avian's little emotions. After guiding them for a while, he easily defeated the four people, making them admit defeat with conviction.
In the end, Avian glared at Li'er and stepped aside, leaving only Charlene who was still in a daze.
"What do you think? Do you still want to fight me?" Lear asked.
Charlene, who was not far away, finally reacted and quickly raised her head, and saw that everyone was looking at her.
"No more fighting!" Xia Lin waved her hands quickly, her face slightly flushed.
Lear put away the night rose in his hand, walked to Charlene's side, and looked down at the girl in front of him.
Charlene looked at Li Er somewhat bewilderedly.
"Where did you learn the technique of storm enchantment?" Lear suddenly asked.
Xia Lin was stunned for a moment, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes, and then she answered with a stammer, "It's me, I figured it out myself."
"Oh..., really?" Li Er smiled, lowered his head and approached Charlene, getting very close to the girl.
"It's true!" Charlene stepped back in panic, not daring to look Lear in the eye. She always felt that Lear's eyes could see through her thoughts.
"You are very talented, and I look forward to your future performance." Lear stopped teasing the girl in front of him, patted Charlene on the shoulder, and then walked towards the knights on the side.
