Chapter 30: The Blood Rose
Dressed in a black dress, Ketonia is like a traveler in time, wandering through different worlds, just walking through the space solidified by Lucian, as if this level of spatial barrier is equivalent to no other for him.
Old-fashioned gentleman in his hand, he crossed the drab black, white and gray long distance with one step, and flashed to the edge of Lucian's spiritual force field, creating a sense of time flying, irretrievable, and unstoppable against the backdrop of silence.
A simple slash actually has an effect that affects the heart and spirit, this is the strength of an epic knight!
And with his sword, Lucien only felt that everything around him slowed down, just like the slow motion in the movie, only the sword light flowing like water was as fast as lightning, washing and burying everything in the world.
In time, even the planet will come to the end of its life!
Ketonia was very satisfied with this sword, since his body began to age, he had not sent such a hearty sword for a long time, but in the face of Hathaway's deterrence, in the face of the imminent rescue of Fernando and Douglas and others, in the face of Lucien's unbelievable promotion to legend in advance, and fiercely yin a flame of origin, locking him in the labyrinth of changes, that huge pressure finally made him forget the condition of his body, forget his family and the remaining lifespan, and once again burned all his body and mind, and returned to the state he was in at the peak of the yearใ
The reason why Winston couldn't be helpless in a short period of time last year was that the strength gap between the various ranks of the Legend was not as big as that of the low, middle and high ranks, unless there was a level difference between the two ranks. On the other hand, due to the aging of his body and the shaking of his spirit, he can only exert his strength close to the third order, and now, he is the "heart of time" who has killed two legendary magicians, a demon king projection, a legendary sea monster, and a dark epic knight!
Between the Dawning War and the Magical Council's strength, on the Stormwind Channel, the "Heart of Time" Ketonia is synonymous with myth and epic!
With this satisfaction. The power of this sword seems to have increased again. The dirt on the black earth turned to gray gravel.
Tick-tock, Ketonia suddenly heard the sound that was not affected by the power of time, and the silver-white pocket watch full of mechanical style held by Lucien in his right hand was still accurately recorded under the black, white, gray and time slow.
Black tuxedo. Bow tie in the same color. Silver pocket watch...... In the eyes of Ketonia. Lucien was not going on a battle between legends, but at a banquet of nobles, after he heard the beautiful lady ask for time. Leisurely took out his pocket watch, snapped the cover open, and pressed his middle finger lightly.
Click!
The heavy pressure suddenly appeared, and the surrounding blackness suddenly increased, and the sword light that washed over everything was pulled by the huge gravitational collapse when he was about to slash Lucian, turning from a straight line to a curve, and skewed to the side.
"Humph!"
The color of Ktonia's eyes vanished, becoming extremely hollow, as if there was a long river of time rushing forward in it, and the long sword suddenly exerted force, briefly breaking through the effect of the gravitational collapse, and slashed back at Lucien in a wonderful arc.
"Elemental Blessing!" Within the time gap created by the gravitational collapse, Lucien had already recited the incantation, and the "Grand Arcanist's Robes" lit up countless elemental points of light, gold, silver, white, and black, all of which merged into a translucent light mask, blocking the "Heart of Time".
There was a bang, as if the sound of flowing water sounded, and the various parts of the legendary defensive magic of "Elemental Protection" suddenly changed, contradicting themselves due to the difference in speed under the influence of time, and quickly disintegrated under the light of the sword.
However, it also fulfilled its historical mission, blocking Ketonia's sword from nearing its prime, and Lucien took the opportunity to flash into the distance and lock on to him.
"Vengeful gaze!" Lucian's voice was rough and rugged, and it seemed to drag out an epilogue compared to normal incantations, which seemed to be lengthy, which was an additional "hand of indeterminacy"!
Although he relied on the strength of concealing the legend and the "moon timepiece" to reach the Origin Flame, he was also affected by their cooperation with the Necromantic Realm, and the rescue of the teacher and the speaker would be dozens of seconds later than normal, and during this time, it was difficult for him to prevent Ketonia from escaping - the legendary space-time magic such as the Labyrinth Technique, he was directly immune, which was also the reason why he chose the hand of the Yin Origin for what he wanted, not him.
Moreover, originally judging from Winston's fighting feelings and various intelligence, Ketonia's strength has long been unable to reach the level of the third order of legends due to aging, and it will not be too dangerous to entangle him for dozens of seconds, but now it seems that he is still old and strong, and his fierce flames are monstrous.
Lucian's right eye suddenly turned red, like a piece of the most beautiful red gem, and then a bright red solidified light shot out of it, so fast that it didn't give people time to react.
But after this bright red ray hit Ketonia's body, it was like "crossing" to another world, slightly deflecting in the time like water, bypassing Ketonia, and piercing the messy black, white and gray peaks behind it through a big hole and shooting into the sky!
What an incredible!
A sneer appeared on the corner of Ketonia's mouth, how could it be so easy to break his defenses? If it was really so simple, he would have fallen in the legendary battles of the past!
And you've only just been promoted to Legendary, and the power of magic is far from enough!
Instead of teleporting, he began to actinize, fusing with his own sword.
In the cold silence of black, white and gray, an unpredictable clear light lit up, like the first rays of sunlight in the morning, illuminating the worldly realm, dispelling the monotony, and slashing towards Lucien as if it were not affected by spatial distance.
"Barrier of the Dead!" As the Grand Arcanist's robe was still buffered, Lucien used the Ring of Congus.
Woo woo, in the necromantic realm, this magic seems to have been bonus, countless ghosts and ghosts converge from all directions, countless flesh corpses fly out of the dirt, solidify into a wall of entangled limbs, and soul faces show painful expressions inside.
But the sword light is a fold. I turned in one direction along a beautiful arc and slashed towards Natasha on the other side!
Even with the power of time, it will take time to kill a mage with many life-saving methods, but it will be much easier to deal with the Golden Knight, who can only use two or three legendary items!
Even if the Shield of Truth was used passively, she couldn't lift it more than three times!
Ketonia, who had deceived Lucien about the time of casting the spell, had a cold gaze, his hands were firm, and there was no trembling in his hands, and the long sword slashed hard at Natasha, who was unable to move due to holding the shield of truth.
Natasha bowed slightly, holding the small black shield of truth diagonally upward, her face resolute. There is a strong will to fight in his eyes. The white lace of the wedding dress shook gently.
While!
In the dull sound, Natasha shrouded in the shield of truth was dyed with a color of nothingness, as if she was in another world, untouchable. Can't hurt!
This shield is known as the ultimate in space-time defense. According to Lucien's observations. It seems to be in the same vein as the "Guardian of the Gods".
After blocking Ktonia's attack, Natasha broke out in a cold sweat on her forehead and clenched her teeth. A hint of silver-purple blood set off her lips very charmingly, and if you look closely, you will see that her legs and hands are trembling slightly, and she looks very struggling.
Two more similar attacks, and you won't be able to resist them!
In order not to give Lucien a chance to lock in, Ketonia immediately "walked through time" after a sword, changed direction, and continued to attack Natasha.
And then, he heard the ticking sound in his ears again.
In the intricate silver-white pocket watch, the black second hand walked happily, constantly pointing to the mysterious symbols cast by various colored gemstones, and Lucien pressed his thumb lightly, and with a click, the second hand froze in place, as if it had broken down.
Gray and white once again drove out black, and the area seemed to enter another plane, so quiet that there was no color, except for Hathaway's pale blue and silver gray.
Instead of standing still, the gray-and-white Ktonia slashes his sword down in slow motion, which helps him effectively dodge attacks when the time-stop effect disappears.
Lucien's eyes were deep, and he said:
"Vengeful Gaze!"
Still similar to before, the "hand of indeterminacy" is attached, and the eyes are like beautiful rubies, shooting bright red rays, but this ray cannot affect Ketonia in the other "time and space" for the time being.
After casting the spell buffer, Lucien recited the incantation again:
"Vengeful Gaze!"
It's a hand of uncertainty again, it's a bright red ray, and due to the extended cast time, the time-stopping effect doesn't allow Lucien to cast a third spell.
As soon as Ketonia saw the monotonous necromantic realm "reappear", he witnessed two bright red rays hitting almost simultaneously!
However, he had a little time to react, and the time around him was like water, rippling slightly, and then these two "vengeful gaze" rays were like their "predecessors", "crossing" into other worlds, bypassing Ketonia's body, and then returning again, piercing the distant mountain peaks that reflected the chaos of the outside world.
The gap between the two levels, the strength that I just promoted, and the magic I just learned, how can I break my defenses?
If you have time for this attack, you might as well use magic to divert your wife!
Ketonia snorted coldly in his heart and continued to attack Natasha, after he judged this sword, Natasha should have reached the limit!
However, he also felt a deep exhaustion, his physical strength was passing rapidly, and he could no longer maintain the strength of the Legendary Third Order.
Although he controlled the power of time, the years still did not spare him.
"Elemental Blessing!"
Suddenly, Hathaway's cold and clean voice came.
She resisted a round of attacks from the Ancient Mummy and the Lich King, freeing up her hands to defend Natasha.
Countless rays of light flew through, and Hathaway was suppressed by the two legendary necromancers, but the two of them were also not lightly injured, under the "Grand Rift Split", except for the golden crown and the "gem" around the head, all other magical items were shattered, and even the yellow-brown "strip of cloth" wrapped around the mummy's body was damaged, revealing carrion as black as iron.
Such a battle is far more than heartache.
Ketonia smiled slightly, relieved a lot, before he was worried that Hathaway was deliberately unable to free his hands in order to deceive himself into staying, and only at the critical moment did he suddenly entangle himself, so that he could not escape, and was surrounded by the reinforcements who came later, and now, after his own attack on Natasha, Hathaway was finally entangled!
The slow-flowing time seemed to sharpen all of a sudden, revealing his own characteristics of washing and destroying anything, and Ketonia took advantage of Lucien's spell to buffer and continue to attack Natasha.
Under a single sword, the speed is different, the changes are different, and the different points of light in the elemental protection mask are entangled with each other, twisted, and it will be broken if there is another attack.
"Vengeful Gaze!"
The cool voice reached Ketonia's ears, which made him a little confused. Is Lucien crazy? Still going on the offensive? Obviously sure he has time to transfer Natasha away!
Lucian's right eye turned scarlet, like the ruby eye of the rumored Silvermoon Etna, and a ray struck Ketonia's side with a single brush.
Sparkling and untouchable, the familiar feeling of defense made the corners of his mouth curl slightly.
But suddenly, the smile on the corner of his mouth froze, and the bright red light did not "pass through"! It did not bend! It hit his chest directly!
After a slight sound, Ketonia's chest was completely pierced by the ray, and an irreparable and thrilling void appeared.
How can it be?
He is the first order of legend, how can he break my defenses?
Even if I had regressed to the second rank of the Legend, it would not have been possible to be penetrated so easily!
At the very least, you have to "wash" it with a luxurious crack before you can "gaze with revenge"!
The paralysis attached to the "vengeful gaze" caused Ketonia to freeze in mid-air, her eyes frozen in consternation.
At this point, Hathaway, noticing the change, gave up her defenses and allowed the Ancient Mummy and the Lich King to attack her, and then spat out the spell without knowing in advance that Lucien's magic would have this effect:
"Luxury Crack!"
With a snap, the countless rays of light on Ketonia's body disintegrated, and the "Heart of Time" long sword also appeared with a slight crack.
After Hathaway was hit by two legendary third-order necromancy, passive magic triggers such as spell triggers, spell sequences, spell sequencers, and Hathaway's conditional reactions broke free from the lock, disappeared in place, and appeared in another direction.
Due to the effect of the "Grand Rift Split", the paralysis of Ketonia's body quickly subsided, but a tall and tall figure suddenly appeared in his pupils.
Dressed in a white wedding dress, the "holy and beautiful" Natasha discarded the Shield of Truth and the Crown of Thorns, discarded all defenses, and threw herself into the silver-gray sword in her hand.
After this sword, I have no defense!
After this sword, either you die or I die!
The will to move forward firmly and never retreat was like substance, which made the half-liberated and paralyzed Ketonia in a trance, as if he saw himself back then.
Yes, how brave and tenacious he used to be, how full of chivalry, but since when did he become a rotten old man who is afraid of death?
The silver-gray sword light flashed, and Ketonia didn't have time to resist, and then saw Natasha's white wedding dress dyed with a little bright red trace, like a bloody rose.
"Is this my blood?" said Ketonia, who suddenly felt a wonderful sense of relief, plunged into the deepest and deepest darkness. (To be continued......)
PS: PS: Let's talk about the update time of the last two days, because of the winter solstice, I often have to go out to the party to eat or something at night, so it is half past twelve at noon and seven o'clock in the evening, and when these days pass, I will adjust back to the normal update time, and then prepare to add more ~
