Chapter Forty-Six: Shadow Mastery
After more than two months of training and recovery, Liszt has gained a lot. Not only did he master the methods and know-how of using daggers, but he also learned a forbidden shadow spell from Nataya - Shadow Mastery.
Knowing that Liszt would not give up using the power of shadows, just like his stupid father, Nataya taught Liszt the ultimate shadow spell that she had not yet learned. The reason why Shadow Mastery is listed as the highest taboo for the Assassin organization Vizjata is because the use of this spell will use a large amount of shadow energy, which will seriously affect people's minds, and many people have fallen into madness after using this spell.
Liszt was not worried about the consequences of this spell at all, even if he used the massive shadows in his armor, it did not shake his faith, although it would affect his character, but for the sake of strength, Liszt didn't care about these at all. After all, everything has a price, and Liszt felt that this price was completely acceptable to him.
Shadow Mastery is achieved by sculpting the Shadow into itself after being highly synchronized with the Shadow, thus obtaining a Shadow Clone. Under the effect of spells, the shadow clone will have the same energy reserves and combat experience as the main body, but can only use the shadow element. And since they don't have a mind, the clone can't use any spells.
The reason why the shadow clone is powerful is that it is a pure energy body, and any physical attack has no effect on it, and as long as it is in an environment with abundant shadow energy, the clone can recover its energy by itself and never dissipate!
Liszt was overjoyed to summon the shadow clone, and he had a new training to do - to train against his clone. His doppelganger has no sense of consciousness and can only accept a few simple orders, so it obviously does not include being a little lighter on the enemy. After Liszt confined the enemy to himself, the shadow clone attacked Liszt with all his might, making a lethal move without mercy. Fortunately, Liszt can use the power of spells, including flashes and elemental offset shields, and can escape under the attack of the clone fighting for his life, otherwise, Liszt will not have time to order the shadow clone to stop, and he will be in a different place.
Strictly speaking, if Liszt and the shadow clone compete for pure assassin skills, Liszt is not even the opponent of the shadow clone, and the doppelganger's use of assassin skills is the limit of Liszt's subconscious, so it will be more deadly, without hesitation. The training against the shadow clone did not allow Liszt to learn any new skills, but allowed him to integrate all the combat skills into his bones, thus forming a powerful fighting instinct.
Liszt's body has fully recovered, and Zur sent a letter some time ago, telling Liszt that although there was something wrong with Kurast, there was no trace of demons, but the church of Sakaram was a little crazy and paranoid, and they hunted down the infidels, so that he could only hide in Tibet.
With the news that Zur was still good, Liszt was relieved to continue his training, knowing that Nataya would soon be leaving, and he could not afford to waste the slightest time he could ask for advice from this powerful assassin.
One morning, Liszt came to Tristram's cliff to train as usual, but Nataya, who usually arrived early, was nowhere to be seen, Liszt looked around suspiciously, and found a piece of letter on the ground of the training ground, he picked up the letter, which was somewhat yellowed by the dirt, patted off the soil, and read:
"Liszt, I must go, the hatred in my heart drives me to the path of revenge, and I can't turn back. Liszt, you are also an avenger, but I can see that you are more of a guardian! Although you may not be fighting for the common people in the world, not for justice and justice, as your friend, I can feel your selfless protection of friendship and family affection.
This year, you are only 14 years old, but you have already stood at the top of the world and become a powerful man. I have nothing more to teach you, because I am not as strong as you. My only hope is that you will teach me to train the wandering sisters who are fighting in the wilderness so that they can survive under the demons. I know you have a lot of responsibility, and if you don't have the time, it doesn't matter, I'm sure the Blood Crow will protect them. ”
Liszt read the letter and laughed in his heart: "You say I am a guardian, and why don't you!" Thank you, Ms. Nataya, I will complete your task, as it was. ”
While there was still time, Liszt decided to set off immediately and head to Rog's camp in the east to fulfill Nataya's expectations. Although Diablo was sealed, many of the monsters and remnants of the demons he demonized still threatened the land, and Liszt had no ability to protect the entire people of Canduras, he could only protect the people he cared about.
When Liszt left, he also specifically asked Kane and Grandpa Austin if they wanted to go with him, and both of them smiled and refused. These days, Kane and Austin have been studying the dusty history of the past, Austin is also a knowledgeable scholar, he is especially familiar with things in the Eastern continent that Kane is not familiar with, which makes Kane, who is addicted to knowledge and can't extricate himself, excited, and the two of them are either talking or flipping through ancient books from morning to night, it is almost as if they are fascinated. Although Austin also recovered, he and Kane decided to study for a while longer before going to Liszt.
Liszt helplessly looked at the two old men who had just rejected him and started arguing, and embarked on the journey alone.
Meanwhile, on the Taymour Mountains, next to the Blind Eye Monastery, a black wanderer, Aidan stopped, and found a cavern in which he unleashed an evil magic that humans could never learn. This magic breaks the boundaries of the world and communicates to the terrifying Burning Hell.
"Andariel, I know you're there, and I need your help." Aidan said in a deep voice.
"Diablo? Why are you like this! What misery, Lord of Fear! In the darkness, a shrill, strange female voice came out, laughing at Diablo.
"Andariel, I don't know why you betrayed me two hundred years ago, but I need your help now, I must go and liberate my brothers, but the pursuers behind me will destroy everything." Diablo didn't care about Andariel's taunts in the slightest, and continued, "Andaril, I used to think that you were the only one who wouldn't betray me, but I didn't expect you to do it anyway. Now, tell me your reply. ”
In the darkness, the female voice was silent for a long time before responding again: "Diablo, I have affection for you, but you should not regard humanity as the hope of eternal war. The confrontation with Heaven must rely on us demons ourselves, and I agree with Azmodan. I'm sorry I betrayed you, but it's only for the ultimate victory in hell. Andariel's voice was no longer shrill but tender and crisp, "I'll help you stop your pursuers, go with confidence, Diablo." After the stupid Azmodan and Bilel were fighting over who was the boss and banished the three of you, Durrell and I realized that without your rule, Hell would be a mess, come back, Hell needs you. With that, the evil magic vanished without a trace.
Aidan was back to his original form, and once again he held Diablo at bay. But Aidan's heart was extremely confused, he only knew that he was going to the East. There, there was the answer he was looking for......
