Chapter 148: Lilith III

"Finn, what's going on with that voice just now? Will your out-of-control Warlock companion still melee combat? ”

"It's her pet, a difficult wind owl!"

Finn swirled his arms, swung the Moonlight Greatsword and shook Pol's claws away, gritted his teeth, and continued to ask Restada, "But let's get down to business, Restadaβ€”I saw the spiral sword you mentioned, it's seven or eight paces away from me right now, do you need me to pull it up?" ”

"Or else?" Restada asked him rhetorically, and her heart was talking nonsense. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"I see." Comprehending the meaning of Restada's words, Finn pursed his lips and nodded, looking sideways at the spiral sword in front of the fog gate in a small pile of ashes, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Lilith who was holding the staff of the wolf soul and the obsidian codex suspended in the air, and then moved his feet, and immediately ran in the direction of the spiral sword.

In keeping in touch with Restada and Tukub, Finn's voice sounded fine, but in fact he had been a very passive disadvantage when facing Lilith under the control of the Obsidian Codex, but the reason for this situation was not that he was too weak, but that Lilith's spellcasting ability had become too strong in a short period of time.

For example, not long ago, when Restada asked Fein if Lilith had touched the Obsidian Codex, the wolf howl that Lestada heard was actually the [Horror Scream] that Lilith had summoned from the Soul Eater wolf who raised his head and roared, and the terrifying explosion and roar was completely caused by five [Fireballs] that shot at Fain in a row from the tip of Lilith's staff.

As a result, after a little recalling the thrilling scene not long ago, Finn felt a palpitation in his heart, thinking that if he didn't have the [Courage Aura] specialty that can be exempted from the effect of fear and the [Demon Drinking Ring] that can resist the three-ring spell up to once a day, he must have been killed by one of the large fireballs that Lilith bombarded at him in a state of fear.

The pure white room didn't seem to be able to be ignited, so Lilith's five fireballs in quick succession at Finn didn't ignite the ground around Finn, causing Finn to quickly return to the foggy door at Restada's reminder.

He stood in front of the ash pile with the spiral sword stuck upside down at this time, his right hand temporarily dragged the moonlight greatsword on the white ground, and his left hand reached forward to hold the hilt of the spiral sword, and then gathered five fingers and used the force of his arm and wrist to pull it out of the ashes at once.

In an instant, the equipment attribute of the spiral sword immediately emerged from below his field of vision.

However, after he pulled the sword out of the ash pile with a spark gushing out, he didn't have time to take a look at the equipment attributes of the spiral sword, and his eyes only had time to glance at the translucent template that emerged from below the field of vision, and recognized the name of the spiral sword as [Sword of Fire], and then rolled to his side, and Lilith's owl demon pet Pol and the summoned creature Soul Eater Wolf immediately swooped and pounced on the place where he had been a moment ago.

That moment was a moment.

After all, when fighting against three hostile targets at the same time, Lilith, Pol, and the Soul Eater summon, if he is not careful, he will be entangled by Bol or the Soul Eater at the same time as he is attacked, and then he will almost have nowhere to hide and swallow a round of spells cast by Lilith - not one, but one, mind you!

At this pace of combat, his Demon Drinking Ring had already been used to withstand the damage of a fireball spell, so the margin for error from then on was almost zero!

"Finn, did you pull out your sword?" Using a timely roll to dodge the attacks of the Eater of Souls and Polbenbe, Finn, with a sword in each hand, quickly crouched to his feet after rolling his body on the floor of the pure white room, and immediately heard the voice of Restada from far away.

"It's already in my hands," he immediately replied loudly to Restada's voice, rising from the ground, "tell me what I should do next!" ”

As the words fell, he took a step back in the opposite direction to Soul Eater and Pol, and then glanced at Lilith, who had not shot at him with Pol and Soul Eater for a moment, and then heard Restada's voice hesitate for a second.

Then, as if he was joking, he told him in a very serious tone, "Kill your companions, and then seize the Obsidian Codex." ”

Finn was taken aback.

"It can't be!"

Then, without even thinking about it, his words immediately roared back at Restada with an obvious anger, but he didn't expect that Restada seemed to have expected him to react like this, and immediately continued to persuade him: "Calm down, Finn." I think you should already know the strength of your companion now, but although the spells and magic she now has are directly granted by the obsidian codex, she is still a mortal. You are a smart man, and I am sure you can understand what I am saying. ”

"I understand your words. But I first asked you what you should do to get my companion back, and now you want me to kill her? He immediately confronted Restada, "Is there no other way?" ”

"There's nothing else you can do." Half a second later, Restada's serious voice came back again, "Listen, Finn, the spiral sword you hold in your hand now is called the Sword of Fire, which was once used by the Dwarven King Vladin Hearthfire of the Third Age, and it has an enchantment on it that can directly break legendary spells. The Obsidian Codex will unleash legendary spells on you the moment you perceive that you are trying to kill its attachers, and the next thing you have to do is to use the power of the Sword of Fire to seize this opportunity to free the souls of your companions from the captivity of the Obsidian Codex, otherwise you will be the first to die first, and the souls of your companions will be controlled by the Obsidian Codex forever after your death, until her life also comes to an end. ”

As the words fell, Restada poured all this long message into Finn, and then did not speak again, seemingly silently handing back the power to judge the pros and cons and make a choice to Finn, who was one of the parties to the incident, to weigh and make a choice.

Fein understood what Restada was telling him, and for a moment he was very reluctant to admit that the choice that Restada had suggested he made was in fact the safest and most sound thing to do.

So, for the first time, he suddenly felt that his best friend in his previous life, the wizard player named Oryant, was right to comment that he was "actually a person whose emotional psychology is far greater than rational thinking at a critical time", because at this time he really didn't want to kill Lilith at all, and he didn't even dare to imagine the scene of himself piercing Lilith's body with a sword.

Even in this life, he and Lilith are indeed only new friends who have only known each other for less than a year.

But for him, there are some things that go against his principles and touch his bottom line, he can't do it, no matter how much others persecute and persuade him, it is useless - and because of this, although he enjoyed the name of the strongest paladin player in the game world in his last life, and has superior strength and prestige, the decision-making power of the Legendary Gamer Guild [Edventle] has in fact always been in the hands of the guild leader Oryant, not him.

Due to his paranoid personality, Finn understands Restada's advice to him, but is unable to fully agree with what she says, so he decides to ignore Restada's advice that he kill Lilith and seize the Obsidian Codex, and continues to deal with Lilith in an attempt to find an alternative to killing Lilith based on his own experience.

Finn's mind was running rapidly, and he grasped the newly acquired Hearthfire Sword, and took advantage of this gap where he could take a breath to lower his gaze and carefully observe the equipment attributes of the Hearthfire Sword.

The Formalous Sword's equipment stats remain translucent in a data frame that hovers below his field of vision. His gaze lowered slightly, and the information of this spiral sword immediately appeared in his eyes-

【Sword of Fire (Enchanted)】

Medium Sword/Magic Item/???

Equipment requirements: 13 Strength

Requirements: ???

1~6 Physical Damage

+25 magic resistance (fire only)

Never wears out

Passive: Physical Attacks deal 12 fire magic damage.

Passive: If the strength is greater than the sum of the required values of the two weapons, the other hand can equip the other weapon with one hand without penalty.

Use:???

Enchantment: Overrides a portion of the equipment's attributes, 1 time remaining, clears 1 legendary spell, or destroys 1 legendary item.

- Praise the flame.

At first glance, the equipment attributes of the Sword of Furnace Fire seem to be more defensive and functional than the Moonlight Greatsword, and the more eye-catching attributes are the 25 points of fire magic resistance added to the holder, as well as its own unworn characteristics, and the equipment effect that is very similar to the [Titan Grip] specialty, so that Finn, who now has 33 strength attributes, can now wield the Moonlight Greatsword with one hand without systematic punishment.

For a while, Finn looked at all the equipment attributes of the Hearthfire Sword, but what really caught his attention was a text displayed in the penultimate row of this spiral sword's data frame.

The text reads - Enchantment: Overrides a portion of the equipment's stats, 1 time remaining, dissolves 1 legendary spell, or destroys 1 legendary thing.

"Unleash a legendary spell...... Or, destroy something legendary! He muttered to himself as he lowered his gaze to look at the spiral sword in his left hand, and a flash of hope flashed in his two brown pupils, and his eyes widened suddenly.

At this moment, just as a flash of inspiration flashed through his mind, the obsidian code on Lilith's right palm turned a new page on its own.

The staff of the wolf soul in Lilith's left hand immediately shone with a dazzling white light, and her eyes raised the staff in her hand in a daze, and the dazzling white light immediately exploded in all directions into more than a dozen [lightning chains].

Countless white arcs lit up the pure white room for a while, but although Lilith's magic power was greatly strengthened by the amplification of the obsidian codex, instead of becoming more proficient, her spell casting skills became very unstable due to the extreme increase in her own magic power in a short period of time, so that Pol and Soul Eater Wolf, who should have attacked Finn with her spells at this time, were also disturbed by the effects of her spells, and Finn used this phenomenon to successfully avoid most of the damage of more than a dozen lightning chains, After that, he lifted the emblem bracelet and prayed a small [healing] to himself, then stood firm and looked at the obsidian codex in Lilith's hand, and shouted loudly at Restada, who must have heard this voice, "Restada, I have thought of another way!" ”

"Something else?" On the other end of the conversation, Restada, who was inside the Tower of Babel, was visibly surprised, "What do you want to do?" ”

"There is indeed an enchantment left on the Sword of Fire that can undo a legendary spell, but the function of that enchantment can not only undo a legendary spell, but also directly destroy a legendary thing." Finn gritted his teeth confidently and replied to Restada, "Therefore, Iβ€”"

"You want to destroy the Obsidian Codex?" The next moment, Restada's gaze froze, and she immediately guessed what Fein wanted to say.

Immediately afterward, without waiting for Finn to answer her and Tukub in a full voice, Tukub, who was squatting and kneeling in the magic array with a staff in his hand, suddenly coughed up a few drops of saliva from his throat as if he had choked on water, and Restada was also stunned immediately, and after a moment of surprise, he hurriedly confirmed to Finn: "Wait, Finn, have you really thought it through?" ”

"Don't worry, Restada." Finn took a deep breath, "I think very clearly. ”

"Then you should know that the Obsidian Codex is a unique legendary item." Lestada reminded him.

"I know."

"It is the most precious legacy left by the Witch King White for the Fourth Age."

"I know."

"Besides, it's only going to be more difficult for you to destroy the Obsidian Codex directly than it is to kill the Obsidian Codex's followers."

"I know ......"

"If you fail, you will be annihilated by the magic unleashed by the Obsidian Codex in the form of spells, and your companions will most likely never wait for a chance to be free."

"I... Know ......"

"Since you know all of this, you should do what I suggest you do just to be on the safe side, and the next thing you need to do isβ€”"

"So I said it, I know it all!"

Suddenly, as if he had had heard enough of Restada's successive exhortations, the young paladin finally roared out like a stubborn child, rejected Restada's suggestion again in the simplest of words, and frankly stated to the two high-ranking spellcasters in the Tower of Babel in the roughest of terms: "But, Restada, and Tukub, a legendary item, do you think it is worthy of Lilith's life?!" It's a piece of! ”

The roar fell, and at the same time, he made up his mind completely, holding two swords, one light and one heavy, in his left and right hands, raising his resolute gaze to look directly at the warlock girl who was holding the staff of the wolf soul and the obsidian code on her toes and suspended in the air, and then took a fearless step forward.
