Chapter 262 New Abilities and New Changes
After consuming most of his spiritual energy and trying various abilities, Angel finally had a comprehensive understanding of this promotion.
Firstly, her advancement to Sequence 6 nearly doubled her spiritual power, allowing her to make greater use of her original spell abilities such as Curse of Black Flame and Frost. The number of times she could use a magic mirror as a substitute also increased. By actively creating an "ice mirror" as a substitute, she possessed nine lives, almost like a cat. The range of her substitutes was also extended to around fifty meters. As long as there was a half-body mirror within this range, or a life-saving magic mirror she had prepared in advance, it would be difficult for her to be trapped or die in battle.
Angel guessed that this extraordinary ability would develop to its limit as her sequence improved, and would even allow her to travel through the spiritual world behind the mirror, achieving the effect of combining attack, defense, and rapid movement.
Of course, the mirror substitute at this time still only has a defensive function. Although it can block most attacks, it is not as practical as the flame flash of the magic pocket watch. The latter can also be used more times after her spirituality is improved. Unfortunately, the flash distance is affected by the "Magician" extraordinary characteristics of the pocket watch itself and is still only about 30 meters.
In addition, the most important new ability is "invisible spider silk".
She had seen this kind of thread when she fought against the two witches of joy in Tingen City. It was colorless and invisible, almost impossible to detect. It could entangle the enemy, protect herself, and even pull the body to make quick turns that were impossible to do normally during battle.
They are light but tough, and once they wrap around the body, it is difficult to break free. However, they are very afraid of fire. Even cursed flames like the black flame can easily burn the spider silk to ashes.
But as long as it is controlled well, the Pleasure Witch's own black flames can be transmitted along the spider silk, which makes her attacks more difficult to detect and difficult to avoid. If the spider silk is laid out in advance, it is even possible to instantly fill the entire room with cursed black flames as she tried just now, leaving no blind spots for attack.
In addition to these functions, spider silk can also be combined with the various abilities obtained in the "Witch" sequence to achieve even more powerful effects. For example, the summoned ice can form a hard, impenetrable ice wall with spider silk, and even condense into an ice coffin to resist external attacks and protect the Witch of Joy. In the ice coffin, she can quickly recover from her injuries, and finally break out of the coffin and fight back.
As she tried to combine spider silk with ice, she remembered how Madam Sharon was shot dead by a continuous stream of "Storm Gathering" through her ice coffin. She decided not to use this self-destructive ability when facing multiple enemies in the future...
The curses that the "witch" is good at have also been strengthened after the promotion. They are no longer limited to being cast through the tissues, hair, or blood of the opponent. Instead, they can directly cast curses that are enough to make people lose their combat effectiveness through direct contact or touching spider silk. They can even reflect the target's figure through a mirror and touch the image in the mirror to curse the opponent.
Of course, the more convenient the medium, the weaker the effect of the curse. Blood is still the fastest and most powerful curse medium, which can affect the enemy in battle, while the other methods can only be carried out slowly and secretly.
This is why Sylvia left her blood or hair. With these media alone, the Witch of Joy could control Angel, the "witch".
Fortunately, now that she herself had been promoted to the Witch of Pleasure, information about these curse abilities also appeared in her mind. Just like when she learned Frost and Black Flame on her own when she was promoted to Sequence 7, she instantly understood how to cast various curses and even counter curses from others.
With just a lock of hair and a few drops of the cursed person's blood, one can create a small occult double that can divert the curse against that person to the wrong target and resist the attack.
"Leonard used this method before... He helped Klein resist a witch's curse transmitted through blood, but how did he know this information?"
Angel muttered, thinking back to his former teammates and Tingen Squad. If he had advanced to Sequence 6 earlier, and been able to eliminate Megose and the evil god's offspring in her womb with minimal effort, would Ince Zangwill still have dared to come to the scene and take the Saint's ashes?
Shaking her head to dispel these negative thoughts, she turned her attention back to studying the Pleasure Witch's abilities. In addition to the abilities granted to her by the potion, there must be many abilities that cannot be obtained by potions alone, or a combination of them. The Beyonder himself needs to explore on his own to find the correct way to use them.
For example, the two members of the witch sect in Tingen City, Triss and Mitis, tried to use the curse altar to collect the lives of innocent people and curse all those who survived the Clover tragedy. This large-scale curse is something Angel has not yet learned, and it must have come from the research of a certain witch.
Similarly, as long as new ideas are developed, different abilities can be combined to achieve new effects. Perhaps mirror divination can be used for spiritual communication, or spider silk can transmit the power of frost to a greater distance, instantly creating a freezing cold. Or even using the connection between blood and magic mirrors, leveraging the special properties of the spirit world to communicate remotely, just like making a phone call...
Without a real mystical mentor to guide her, she had to rely on her own research and experimentation.
"Luckily, no one knows I've been promoted. Both Laura and Sylvia think I'm still a Sequence 7 struggling to digest witch potions, waiting for the formula or potion ingredients. This is my chance..."
Dragging his tired body, Angel went to the bathroom while thinking.
She took off her dress which was almost soaked in her struggle that had just made her lose control, and saw her true face in the half-length mirror, which she had not carefully observed for a long time. She found that her face under her blonde hair had become softer and more pleasing to the eye... No, it was already pleasing to the eye, but now it seemed as if she had put on the makeup that best suited her, showing her most perfect side. Without changing her appearance, she exuded an indescribable attraction.
Even Angel, who already knew it was his own face, was deeply attracted by the woman in the mirror and couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Only then did she face the true power of "joy": more attractive beauty and body; the ability to control her emotions and endocrine functions, and even avoid the most annoying days of each month.
And give endless joy to others and yourself.
Through physical contact, the Pleasure Witch can easily control the primitive desires of others. Yes, the desires of men and women...
The desire that had been accumulating over the past few days from using the "Ring of Madness" seemed to be about to burst out of Angel's body in her wild thoughts. She tried to use her ability to control her emotions and found that she could suppress this strange thought, but it was just suppression and did not provide a fundamental solution.
No wonder the few pleasure witches I met were...
She thought of the behavior of Mrs. Sharon, Ms. Lola, and Sylvia, and despairingly realized that the role of the Witch of Pleasure might also be related to this aspect.
Pushing these thoughts out of his mind, Angel took a quick shower, changed his clothes, and returned to the basement.
During the promotion just now, she unknowingly knocked over the alchemy table, and the auxiliary materials and bottles and jars on it were scattered all over the floor, which needed to be cleaned up.
She also planned to create a mystical substitute to prevent Sylvia from using her preserved blood to curse her remotely. This substitute could be kept by her side, so even if she was cursed, she would be able to sense it and would not be easily discovered that she was no longer affected.
"Oh, this is the benefit of early promotion..."
Enduring the restless urge to do something, she comforted herself with this thought while cleaning up the messy basement.
