Chapter 442: Enchantment Card: Enchanting Aura (3rd update, 10,000 words)
The effect of the former in the game is that the red-named and yellow-named wild monsters become green-named, the hatred of the enemies that have already generated hatred towards you is immediately cleared and remains at zero for the duration, and the dodge rate is increased by 15%.
But in reality, it should be Emma's "fragrance charm".
The effect was so strong that it needed no explanation—Bishop Mathers had demonstrated it to Aiwass himself.
It's just that because it's an enchantment, like Shadow Blade, it lasts only a short time, and a card can only be used once a day. It's impossible to use it as often as Emma can.
As for the latter, it is the scarlet whip that grows from the wrists of the succubus's hands - it is more like a tentacle than a whip and has tactile sensation.
In fact, it is considered a special weapon of the succubus, equivalent to the thunder halberd of the punishment demon or the wings of the night demon.
This whip has two main effects - each of its attacks comes with a charm check, and for targets that cannot be charmed, it will instead cause continuous bloodsucking, constantly draining the opponent's physical strength and vitality.
It can also be used to attack teammates or charmed targets, causing severe pain with a fierce curse while adding a special state of rage.
This is a pretty powerful buff.
The effect in the game is to charm teammates, making them unable to cast spells, continuously losing blood and weakening their defense by 20%, while increasing their attack power, attack speed and movement speed by 20%.
And it can be stacked up to three layers!
By the third level, the percentage of health loss becomes extremely terrifying, and you can see your health line dropping at a speed visible to the naked eye. At the same time, you are as fragile as a piece of paper, but your attacks will be as terrifying as a mad dog.
Of course, there are definitely cards with greater benefits than this one. But more important than the stats is the fun factor...
The most interesting thing about this thing is that it can charm your teammates!
It is called by players "You are strengthened, hurry up!"
Once you are whipped two or three times, you will turn into a meteor and crash directly into the enemy formation, causing huge damage at the cost of your life. Because this buff effect is so outrageous, each time you use the spell card to transform this equipment card, it can only enhance your teammates three times.
Its disadvantage is that its gain is bound to the charm state. If the skill is used to remove the charm state, the gain will also disappear. In the game, players cannot say to their charmed teammates, "Don't come up yet, wait for me to fill up your status."
Once a teammate is charmed, he will immediately attack the nearest enemy like an out-of-control AI. Once the opponent starts to pull, the Scholar of the Sin has to chase after the teammate like a grandmother feeding her grandson. Therefore, it is not very useful in PVP.
However, in PVE dungeons, you can use this to let melee output professions stack three layers of rage at the right time to stand still and take damage to grab the blood line, and then let the priest release the control before the new mechanism comes.
Aiwass was the one responsible for clearing the ball before.
An extraordinary weapon that can charm the enemy, suck blood from the enemy, and enhance teammates... Logically, Aiwass has no need to hesitate at all.
The problem was, it wasn't just Aiwass who couldn't use a whip—no one he knew could use a whip.
Another problem was that after seeing the Great Guardian's almost miserable, beast-like appearance... Aiwass really didn't want to give this thing to his teammates.
In the game, teammates only increase or decrease your defense by bleeding.
But it had truly robbed the Great Guardian of his rationality, transforming him into a tormented, maddened beast. He was now covered in blood and shattered. Even with the illumination technique, there was no telling how long it would take him to recover.
If it can’t be used on humans with flesh and blood, can it be used on the beast of sin that can resurrect itself?
Aiwass didn't think it would work either.
This is not decent. This is not right.
Wielding a whip and lashing out at his summons and teammates, causing them to go crazy and lose their rationality - this style of painting makes him look like a villain.
The "Scarlet Poison Lady" is a real poison whip, and according to the description it is a cursed weapon that "inflicts severe pain with a fierce curse."
So Aiwas finally chose [Enchantment Card: Charming Aura].
Although Aiwass felt that with his ability to deal with people, he probably wouldn't need this ability much.
But who knows when it might come in handy...
Then, Aiwass injected his magic power and praised loudly:
"I worship the God of the Unchanging Self, the God whose holy number is one, the God who gives birth after death, the God who sees the long-awaited and the blind—"
A pungent smell like a drunkard's vomit emanated from the card.
Aiwass's left hand once again tightly grasped the ceremonial knife hanging on his chest, and blood dripped onto the cards.
——The next moment, the sacred [Power] card gradually melted and transformed into [Lust].
Aiwass's dripping blood was like sacred wine.
The goddess who tamed the lion got drunk and fell on the red lion, holding the holy grail in her hand. The lion was also bathed in blood and gradually became ferocious.
Just like when the demon of punishment was sealed before - the magic power in Aiwass' body was madly extracted until all the dark magic power in Aiwass' body was drained.
This even made Aiwass a little worried that what he created might no longer be "Charming Aura".
At this moment, the pervasive smell of alcohol spread. The succubus, trapped in a cage by countless shadowy hands, gradually "collapsed."
It turned into a pool of blood and seeped out from between his fingers.
It was not that he was crushed into meat paste by the Night Demon, but that he was melted into blood by Hengwo's power.
The blood flew like a storm towards the card in Aiwas's hand. The blood split into three streams in the air and sank into the card, causing it to vibrate violently.
Finally, it transformed into a brand new golden-purple Tarot card, gleaming with dark gold and blood-red light, and fell into Aiwass's hands.
[Enchantment: Charming Aura (Lust)]
[Required: Dark 3]
【Maintenance: Dark 3*per minute】
【Instant, Self, Aura, Echo】
[Effect: Grants the caster "Charming Aura", which is equivalent to the succubus's innate spell]
Echo spell version of Enchanting Aura!
Aiwass was shocked.
——Sure enough, this is the second time a special situation has occurred.
Just like sealing the Punishment Demon before... If you completely drain the opponent, the Phantom Demon Card will directly gain a new attribute!
The Punisher has an additional "Repeat" entry, while the Succubus has an additional "Echo".
This card has a response, which means it can be used countless times in a day!
Although the mana consumption is a bit scary...it takes three dark points to summon, and it consumes three dark points every minute.
But as long as Aiwass doesn't burn this card, it means that Aiwass has another regular spell with unlimited uses!
The normal version of the Enchanting Aura definitely doesn't have this effect. Otherwise, Aiwass wouldn't have been able to even briefly struggle between the Enchanting Aura and the Scarlet Poison.
The meaning of the charm aura that can be used at any time is completely different from the charm aura that can only be turned on once a day and cannot be turned on again once turned off!
At this moment, Ligeia suddenly said to Aiwass: "Is it finished?"
Hearing this, Aiwass turned around.
The Great Guardian had clearly escaped the succubus's control. His skin had returned to its normal color, and the scars had vanished. Only his body was bloodied and battered, and he was incredibly weak. Even so, he remained unconscious, and only reluctantly nodded to Aiwass.
After the succubus was completely dissolved by Aiwass, the hints and shackles she had left on the Great Guardian, the Griffin, and Isabel also disappeared without a trace.
The essence of enchantment is also a curse. When the curser dies, the curse is naturally lifted.
——Evans was indeed unable to break the succubus's control, but he could get rid of the succubus directly.
Then, Aiwas immediately realized what Ligeia meant: "Vignes, come back!"
The Night Demon, who was already feeling unwell, immediately exploded into a gray shadow feather after receiving Aiwass's order and returned to his traveling form.
The black crow flew towards Aiwas's shoulder, and once again transformed into a sculpture-like state to gather strength and gradually release the power and pressure accumulated in its body.
But before its pressure dissipated, the fully armed knights of the Arbitration Hall arrived.
They were all watching the ceremony at the Candlelight Cathedral. The sudden bloody rain caused chaos throughout the city, and their first priority was to restore order.
It was not until the situation outside the Temple of Silver and Tin changed drastically that they rushed back.
From the moment the explosion sounded in the Temple of Silver and Tin until they arrived at the scene fully armed—it took less than a minute.
And what they saw was a doomsday scene—
Avalon's magnificent, sacred glass staircase completely collapsed and shattered. The first person to come into view was Aiwass, standing alone amidst the shattered glass. His body was stained with blood, but his eyes were sharp and he was in good spirits.
In front of him was a pool of filthy blood.
Her Majesty Isabel stood on a high place, and Ligeia protected the Queen behind her, holding the Scepter of Avalon.
The young queen stood near the round table in the Round Table Hall, her body stained with blood. The Great Guardian, a bloody mess, stood before Isabel, now kneeling on the ground, nearly unconscious. His griffin, Philip, also weakened, huddled in the corner of the glass steps.
What happened?
——Your Majesty was attacked?!
The Great Guardian was seriously injured and almost lost consciousness in order to protect His Majesty... Did he block some explosive?
The knights of the Arbitration Hall were silent.
They realized they were too late - if it weren't for the protection of the Great Guardian, perhaps something would have happened to His Majesty!
Even though Isabel didn't summon them, even though Ligeia was there, even though they rushed back to the Temple of Silver and Tin as soon as possible... they were still too late.
This is undoubtedly a dereliction of duty on their part.
You know, Isabel is almost the only royal bloodline in Avalon!
Apart from Isabel, the only remaining members of the Du Lac family are her missing father and her two-year-old brother.
Isabel watched them from above, her expression serious and her eyes calm.
"Count Scarlett Emma of Star Antimony suddenly turned into a demon. Thus, a bloody night descended, and blood rain and curse covered the entire Glass Island.
"Lord Emma launched a direct attack on me, Queen of Avalon and heir of Lancelot. It was a direct attack that was deadly."
The young queen declared calmly and majestically, “Lord Barton fought until he was nearly unconscious, and Ligeia dealt me the most dangerous blow.
"Fortunately, there was Lord Moriarty—his devout prayers summoned the miracle of the Eternal One, which annihilated the succubus-like Earl Emma. He ended the scarlet night with his own will and brought the sacred sunlight back to the candlelit Avalon."
At this moment, Isabel actually had a bit of Aiwass's flavor.
"—I certify that everything Your Majesty says is true."
Ligeia also raised her scepter and declared loudly.
Just like she had acted with Aiwass in front of the reporters before.
Then Ligeia pointed to the pool of blood on the ground and said, "That is what remains of Count Emma—it has been transformed into a pool of blood by the power of the Eternal Self."
The knights could naturally feel that this was true.
They were all powerful beings at the fourth energy level, and they could vaguely feel the enormous power in the pool of dirty blood and the traces of the Pillar God lingering in the air.
At this moment, Avalon's blood moon night had ended. The bloody storm had subsided, and the clear water that had turned to blood had become clear water again. The blood that fell to the ground had also turned into rain again, as if everything was just an illusion.
The midday sun once again shone upon the interior of the Temple of Silver and Tin, reflecting a rainbow in the sky after the rain.
That seemed to be Sizhu's affirmation - the knights of the Arbitration Hall could only imagine it.
Because at this moment, the light shone into the hall, and countless broken colored glass reflected fantastic and magnificent colors.
Aiwass stood in the shattered glass, a divine light reflected on his body.
This young pastor, who borrowed the power of the Pillar God through prayer, clasped his hands together in front of his forehead and closed his eyes in prayer.
No one dared to interrupt his prayer, no one even dared to make a sound.
"—I praise the candle."
Finally, Aiwass said in a low voice: "Respect Hengwo.
"I bear the scales of the Crown Master, the blood of the Serpent Father, and the blessing of the Twin Mirrors. Fortunately, with the protection of the gods, I can protect Your Majesty from danger."
He loosened his hands and looked at the knights: "And you..."
There was still a lingering glow of red in Aiwas's pupils, as brilliant as the setting sun, and he still carried waves of oppression that had not yet dissipated - an oppression that was even more powerful than Meg and Ligeia.
The weak cannot perceive it at all; only the strong can sense it.
Being stronger than Meg, that must be the remnant of the Pillar God's power!
"Your incompetence nearly cost His Majesty his life."
The young Minister without Portfolio looked at the knights and replied calmly and word by word: "Your laxity has brought shame to Avalon.
"—Repent before the judgment comes."
A long time passed in that terrifying stillness and silence.
Finally, one knight knelt on one knee, head bowed in guilt, and drew his sword, holding it horizontally before him.
This is the chivalric etiquette of Avalon, which means "I will never dodge even if you chop off my head with this sword."
Immediately afterwards, one knight after another knelt on the ground and put down their swords.
They seemed to be kneeling before the Round Table, before Isabel, and even before the destroyed glass steps.
Or, kneel down to Aiwas standing on the destroyed glass steps.
