Chapter 160 Shattered Light Ray
The sharp tip of the knife easily penetrated the thin gold sheet and pierced into the wooden table behind it.
In an instant, a fiery power was transmitted from the Yangyan Talisman through the carving knife to Angel's right hand. Then, like burning blood, it flowed up along the blood vessels in her arm, entered her torso, and spread throughout her body.
There seemed to be a scorching gale blowing around, and Angel felt his whole body becoming hot, as if he was facing the midday sun in the desert.
"call--"
The air she exhaled was hot, and the blood in her body was almost boiling. Her right hand holding the carving knife trembled as she lifted it up. The golden piece of the "Yangyan Talisman" had already emitted a fiery red light, became soft, and fell from the tip of the knife.
The front half of the blade also emitted a scorching, dazzling light, as if it had just been taken out of a furnace.
Angel knew that if she didn't do something, she would be burned into an unrecognizable charcoal by the scorching sun power that spread throughout her body.
Without further hesitation, she took the processed shell in one hand and the carving knife with a red-hot tip in the other. Guided by the muscle memory cultivated from the repeated trials of ammunition, she began to draw intricate spells on the surface of the shell.
No. 2 Narcissus Street is not far away.
"Klein, I think tomorrow's gathering is just a casual affair. We can all attend the celebration and stroll through the park together. You really don't need to wear a top hat and carry a cane. That would make you look 42, not 22."
Melissa said to her second brother in dissatisfaction, sneering at his outfit that looked like he was attending a gathering of middle-aged gentlemen.
The latter obediently took off his half-high silk hat and put it aside.
"I don't think the trench coat is necessary. Well, I'll just keep the vest underneath to look younger."
Benson also suggested.
Klein smiled helplessly and retorted:
"But I have to go to the office tomorrow, so I need to dress formally," he added quickly when his sister Melissa frowned again. "I can leave my windbreaker, cane, and hat at the office. It's only two minutes away from the park anyway."
You can even take the underground secret passage and get there quickly via St. Selina Church - he added in his mind.
Although next week's Tarot Club had been canceled due to Mr. Hanged Man and Miss Justice taking leave, allowing him to use Monday's rest until tomorrow, he still had to go to the company tomorrow morning as he had some clues about Lanevus that he needed to discuss with the captain.
But the time after 9:30 is free!
Klein thought secretly, took off his windbreaker, and placed his cane next to the sofa, freeing his hands.
Melissa finally felt relieved and smiled.
"Anyway, we'll wait for you at the park tomorrow. I don't want to see you dressed in such a shabby way. It will leave a bad impression on Miss Angel."
"But we dress like this every day when we're working, and she does the same."
Klein felt a burning sensation in the pocket of his windbreaker. While pointing out the inconsistencies in his sister's words, he turned sideways, avoiding his family's sight, and fumbled in his pocket.
He took out two gold-based talismans from his pocket. These were the "Sun Flame Talismans" he made with the help of the "Mutated Sun Holy Emblem".
The Joker had almost exhausted all of his spiritual energy. He made three talismans in the church in the town of Morse and gave one of them to Angel who helped him get rid of Leonard.
The two talismans left in his hands were emitting a much higher temperature than usual, and were even a little hot to hold with bare hands.
Fortunately, after a few seconds, the talisman returned to its original warmth. Seeing Benson looking at him curiously, Klein quickly stuffed the talisman back into his pocket.
"Well, that's indeed a problem. Miss Angel has been neglecting her appearance a bit, even though she's beautiful without any makeup..." Melissa said with a frown, but then her expression relaxed and a smile appeared on her lips. "But I believe she will dress beautifully tomorrow."
"Why?"
Now Klein was also a little curious.
"intuition!"
Melissa answered mysteriously, her eyes moving to one end of the living room, which was number 6 Daffodil Street, Angel's home.

While the Moretti family was discussing whether to dress formally or casually for tomorrow's celebration, another person who was scheduled to go with them was sweating profusely as he made a special bullet.
Angel finally understood why Klein was soaking wet when he saw him in the church that day, and even the ends of his hair were a little burnt, as if he had been exposed to the desert sun.
Because she felt the same way at this moment.
Fortunately, as his spiritual power quickly dissipated, Angel's body temperature gradually dropped. This was because the energy released from the "Yangyan Talisman" gradually entered the shell in his hand during the engraving of the carving knife, becoming part of its power.
The tiny copper shell was scratched by the hot tip of the knife, and was gradually engraved with various symbolic symbols, magical signs and ancient spells. Golden light kept flashing on the engravings, and the huge amount of sun power contained in it was ready to overflow at any time.
Finally, only the last holy emblem remains...
Angel's nervous expression relaxed slightly, and she was about to use a knife to carve the holy emblem of the Goddess of Night on the bullet casing, completing the last step.
At the moment when the tip of the knife was about to touch the bullet casing, her dwindling spiritual power suddenly issued a warning, causing her head, which was throbbing with pain, to feel a little dizzy, and she almost made a careless move and destroyed the expensive bullet.
What happened? What went wrong?
Angel's thoughts raced, but he couldn't stop. The last bit of power from the Holy Sun Symbol within him was searching for an outlet. If he didn't continue engraving the spell...
Oh, right, the Holy Emblem of the Sun, that is the symbol of the eternal scorching sun!
Angel suddenly realized, she concentrated her spiritual power on the tip of the knife again, continued to cut, and changed the final talisman to the Eternal Blazing Sun - that was one of the seven gods represented by the mutated sun holy emblem, and also the eternal light, the embodiment of order, the god of contract and the guardian of commerce.
Along with the holy emblem of this god, a circle surrounded by lines was engraved on the bullet casing. All the engraved symbols on the entire bullet emitted a golden luster, and the spirituality attached to it was connected into a whole, making the bullet emit warm and harmonious fluctuations.
Just like the "Yangyan Talisman" that once contained power but has now turned into an ordinary gold piece.
While the flashing light of the spell on the surface of the shell had not yet faded, Angel reassembled the prepared charge and bullet with the shell, and then watched the completed bullet gradually cool down and dim.
This does not mean that the power it contains disappears without a trace, but rather a manifestation of the energy being restrained and condensed.
The "Shattered Light Ray" is now complete.
Picking up the precious bullet from the table, Angel recalled its attack effect in his mind.
After firing this special ammunition, it will explode directly in the barrel and launch all the stored energy forward - that is, in the direction the muzzle is pointing, forming an extremely condensed beam of light that penetrates and shatters any object that dares to block it.
Due to the extremely high temperature, the weapon that launches the "broken light ray" will be destroyed the moment it is triggered, so the launcher can only be used once. This is why Angel specially received a revolver.
Weapons destroyed by high temperatures can also cause great harm to the user. This revolver equipped with the "Light Breaker Ray" can only be used as a last resort, not with conventional ammunition.
Besides, it's impossible for me to easily find the materials to make a second one...
He carefully stuffed the dark yellow "Shattered Light Ray" engraved with runes into the revolver, leaving the other four magazines empty. He then rotated the cylinder to move the Shattered Light Ray to the second position to avoid accidental firing. Only then did Angel feel at ease to unlock the spiritual wall.
First, take a shower, change your sweat-soaked clothes, get a good night's sleep, and then...
Then, tomorrow is Sunday, and I’ll be accompanying Melissa to the festival!
After planning his weekend itinerary, Angel left the basement briskly.
