Chapter 35: The Battle of the Long Street of the Moon (7)
Oswald immediately remembered something after noticing that Adela on the other side was not right, and he cried out in a lost voice: "You, it turned out to be you!"
"Yes, that's me." Adra's form became blurred, and after a few seconds, the blurred form became clear again, but the whole person's body shape was completely different, and now it was Cassano's legendary mage Ryan who appeared in front of Oswald.
"Sure enough, it's simulacrum!" "So far, Oswade still has something he doesn't understand, presumably at the beginning, Adela was still herself, but at a time when he didn't know about it, Ryan changed his appearance with magic and replaced Adela, and all of Oswald's attacks were naturally aimed at this legendary mage, and it was not uncommon for them to miss each other with the difference in strength between them.
Ryan smiled at Oswald, but didn't speak. He and Adela arranged this game just to lure the Sword Master of Mochizuki City in front of him to take the bait, in fact, he has been following Adela all along, but he has become a personal guard by Adela's side with simulacrum.
Level 8 magic simulacrum allows the caster to transform into any image he has ever seen, but this is only for a short period of time, and since it is simulated with magic, it is still possible to find subtle differences in many details. It's just that Adela's guards all look like they're wearing full Mithril armor, and Oswald hasn't had any contact with them, so it's not surprising that he can't recognize Ryan's simulacrum.
When Adela was affected by Andrew's two-handed giant sword because of his mind, the killing aura that emanated made everyone feel a little uneasy, and many people didn't even dare to look directly at Adra, and Ryan changed his identity and Adela at that time. Later, it was Ryan himself who walked over to see Maher. As for that Maher, it can only be said that he was unlucky, and he actually said insulting words to Adela in front of Ryan, who was the most protective of his shortest, which aroused Ryan's anger, and his fate can be imagined.
"Is this the power of a legendary mage?" Oswade shook his head gently, he has been immersed in the stage of the Sword Master for more than ten years, it can be said that he is only one step away from being promoted to the legendary realm, he has always thought that the so-called legendary powerhouse is just a stronger and faster speed, but he never expected that the mage in front of him, who has not been promoted to the legendary realm for a short time, can actually play with himself in the palm of his hand, this is definitely not just a little bit of power gap.
Oswald knew very well that Ryan's simulacrum just now was not just a level 8 magic, just imagine that he was hiding underground, it was impossible to observe the situation on the ground with his eyes and other conventional means, all relying on the stunts he comprehended after being promoted to the Sword Master, and the aura of locking the target with secret methods, so that he could launch a sneak attack at the best time. I don't know how many times Oswade had used such a stunt before, and he had never made any mistakes, but Ryan actually quietly switched positions with the target that Oswade had been locking on without him noticing, so that the Sword Master of Mochizuki City finally got the wrong target for attack.
In fact, Oswald slightly overestimated Ryan's strength, and the reason why Ryan was able to hide his aura lock was not entirely because he was a legendary powerhouse, but more because Adela and Ryan signed a soul contract. After having this contract of completely dedicating her soul to the host, that is, Ryan, Adela's body and mind can be said to be completely open to Ryan, as long as Ryan is responsible, she does not have any secret space of her own at all, even a small thought in her heart cannot hide from Ryan.
Since Adela's soul is subordinate to Ryan, and to some extent, the two of them can even be regarded as one existence, so with Oswald's strength not yet stepping into the legendary realm, there is naturally no way to distinguish the difference between the two of them in subtle places such as soul and breath, if Ryan is simulated as another person, Oswade may not be able to find out.
"The legendary powerhouse really lives up to his reputation!" Oswald couldn't help but praise.
Ryan smiled at the Sword Saint of Mochizuki City again, and said, "Thank you for the compliment! But it's a pity that you also had a part in the last sneak attack on Tekken Castle, so ......" Ryan said this, spreading his hands and making a helpless expression.
Oswade laughed, he put away the long sword in his hand, and said in a playful tone, "I don't expect a single kind word to make you withdraw immediately, since a war has broken out between Cassano and Mochizuki City, then you can only die!"
"I think so too, I didn't expect that there are so many things in common between us, it's a pity, why didn't I be friends with you the last time I came here, I believe that Alendor at that time will definitely gain a lot from you. Ryan also replied with a smile.
"Haha, that's right, I heard Blair say that your strength at that time could only be considered average, at most it was just a 'very potential' comment, and he treated you favorably at that time, mostly for the Imperial Capital Magic Guild, and Navictor. Oswade's tone was familiar, as if he were talking to an old friend he hadn't seen in years, "But I'm also very curious about how you can progress so quickly, it's only been four years, and you've stepped into the realm of legends, and that druid has the strength to fight me." It's a pity, it's a pity!"
"What a pity?"
Oswade glanced at Ryan and said seriously: "It's a pity that Blair didn't have the means to predict your current achievements, otherwise I would have taken action directly at that time and learned about you here, and then Mochizuki City would not have such a catastrophe today." ”
"Yes, it is. Ryan clapped his hands lightly, nodded and replied: "This is the true drop of life, for the future, it is always unknown, and naturally it will always be full of challenges and surprises." If I learn from that undead lich, my life will remain unchanged for thousands and hundreds of years, and I will probably be suffocated to death!"
Oswade didn't know that Ryan's words were referring to the past when Catherine wooed Ryan to join the Undead Legion on the night of the palace in a few years, but Ryan's words also contained a truth, the Sword Saint of Mochizuki City only thought about it for a while, and immediately shouted loudly: "That's right, that's right, I finally understand why my strength hasn't improved much in the past ten years, since I became one of the six-member council, I no longer have that passion to challenge the unknown in my heart!" Actually, it's not just me, it's even Blair, they're all like that! Power, power! Hehe, what's tempting, it's harmful!"
"Actually, you don't need to be so loud, Master Blair's 'farsightedness' can only see the situation here for us, but can't hear what you're saying, if you let people read your lips, then is there a voice that is not the same?" Ryan looked at Oswald with excitement on his face, and suddenly pointed out the fact that Blair had been using magic to monitor here, which immediately surprised the sword master of Mochizuki City, but next, something even more surprising happened.
"Ryan, let me wash away the shame of the last attack on Tekken Castle. Wearing the "Crimson Rose", Adela walked quickly behind Ryan, her hateful gaze pierced directly through the helmet and nailed to Oswald's body, among the enemies who attacked the Iron Fist Castle that night, the farmer, Dracula and others had already been beheaded, but the sword master of Mochizuki City retreated.
In the battle that night, if it weren't for Galibu's action, then the Iron Fist Castle would have been wiped out, and she Adela would naturally become the plaything of the blood clan, and the end would be extremely tragic. Now that Cassano is attacking Mochizuki City in the name of revenge, he naturally wants to kill the enemies who invaded the Iron Fist Castle in the first place, and Adela can't kill the blood clan Dracula with his own hands, so the only one who can kill it with his own hands is the sword master in front of him.
"Woman, you're not my opponent yet. Oswade shook his head and said to Adra, "Don't think that if you wear a very good set of magic armor and have a very sharp magic weapon, you can ignore the difference in strength between them. If you can become a real powerhouse by relying on this alone, then who else in this world is willing to spend countless efforts to improve your own strength? I'm afraid that everyone is busy building the most powerful equipment. ”
"I'm afraid it may not be, right?" Ryan's unfinished voice rang out. "Why do so many people break their heads for a good piece of magical equipment? Do you know what the effect of a magic accessory against psychic attacks is when facing a master of mind magic? Do you know what happens to a master of fire magic wearing armor that is immune to fire damage? It is wise not to use external forces when practicing, but it is a bit of a burden to ignore the effects of magic equipment in your life-and-death battle. ”
"Hahahaha! In that case, that's great!" Oswald laughed and said, "I tried my best to kill this woman, and I failed in the face of your magic. It seems that today is my lucky day, and you actually let her come up and send her to death?
Ryan smiled slightly, and didn't continue to talk to Oswild. As her own woman, since Adela has the will to take revenge with her own hands, how can she satisfy her? As for the question of whether she can win the battle, there seems to be no need to answer it with a legendary mage beside her. As for whether this was fair to Oswald, it was not within Ryan's consideration, after all, didn't they consult Ryan when they attacked Iron Fist Castle in the first place?
Since there is no problem with safety, then Adela's battle also contains another role, that is, to check whether the entire cultivation system conceived by Ryan is effective in actual combat, after all, everything Ryan conceived is all conceived by himself, and he has not experienced a real test, and the sword master in front of him is an excellent test tool.
