Chapter 2 2 3: The Spear of the Stars
Tara and her team were thirteen in total, and all but her had a large nail covered in runes in their hands, except for her, who was holding a large book in her hand. There was no trace of magic flowing on the nail, and the spell on it could not be activated.
According to incomplete statistics, the mineral production of [Land of Desire] Sisg in the past two years has been at least 30% lower than before, and nearly sixty villages have been abandoned inexplicably, and the people inside do not know where they have gone. Almost every month, Tara receives news that a village is deserted, and it is not something she has over that matter, but as the chief warlock of the country, she must take this responsibility......
"There seems to be no one in this village, and no one responds after shouting so much." One of the men lifted the cloth covering the fruit from the vendor next to him, "The thing sold is still very new, it looks like it was still on sale yesterday." ”
"In other words, this stone statue will swallow everyone who comes by virtue of the so-called 'wish grant'?"
Tara shook her head, and the [Star Book] suspended above her palm was erupting with more and more intense starlight.
"It's about the power of [Fate] itself, the true law...... "Tara said softly, "Either way, this kind of thing is absolutely not allowed to appear in Yaris, it must be eradicated!" ”
The closer the team got to the square, the more condensed the light emanating from the [Astrological Book] became, until finally, the starlight surging in the book actually turned into a gurgling stream, scattered randomly on the ground from the margins of the pages!
In other words, the power of [fate] felt by the book is very strong! Tara only frowned slightly when she saw this. The situation was slightly more than she expected, but with the help of the power of the big book, nothing should go wrong.
The square was empty, except for a huge stone statue standing in the middle, surrounded by a circle of stone pillars with unchanged words engraved on the top of the stone pillars.
"Looks like this is ......" Tara seemed to understand something as she read the words on the pillar, "Miracle Statue...... No wonder it's called the Miracle Stone ......"
The realization of any miracle has a price, and in the Land of Desire, everyone's desires are magnified to a certain extent, and the stone statue took the opportunity to exchange it for something from the person who made a wish to it......
"The power of fate accumulated inside the stone statue is already quite large-scale, and it must not be neglected." Tara commanded the rest of the team to drive the massive rivets into the ground, "hoping to eliminate it at the first blow before it could be exploited." ”
Even as Tara said this, the stone statue opposite her didn't move, as if it were a real, lifeless stone. But it is this ordinary, even somewhat ugly stone, that may be the main cause of Sisg's decay.
Tara snatched the Book of Stars floating in the air and began to flip through the pages. As soon as the book touched the woman's finger, it lost its original brilliance, and it looked quaint and old.
There was no handwriting on the book at first, and it was more so under Tara's hands, and the book is now devoid of content. Five indigo patterns slowly spread out from under the skin of her arm, like the roots of a rapidly growing seedling, jumping to the tips of five fingers.
Tara gently stroked the rough and yellowed pages, and under the stimulation of the magic power, runes glowing with different colors of starlight emerged from the depths of the pages! The power evoked by the great book surged from the void like a huge wave, and the woman's heel gradually floated from the ground, and the magnificent wave of magic surged dramatically like a picture.
The depths of Tara's eyes were filled with a fierce rush of magical light, and the waves of magic under her feet quickly enveloped her, engulfing everything in her.
Everyone on the ground looked up in shock, but their eyelashes fluttered at the dazzling neon glow. Now Tara could only see a silhouette full of magic, and only a pair of noble and spontaneous majestic eyes could be seen up and down her body. They had been repeatedly reminded by Tara that they couldn't stare at her in this state for a long time, otherwise they would be sucked away by the huge star power in it, and at this time, they couldn't take their eyes off their lowly mud.
"Do what you have to do." A cut was cut in Tara's smooth mirror-like face, and the starlight gushing out of it distorted the space in front of her slightly, "I should have told you before. ”
Tara didn't want to speak, because the sound made by the squeezing of pure energy was so loud that it would blow everyone below to pieces if she wasn't careful, but in this situation, she couldn't do without talking.
All the team members on the ground showed painful expressions on their faces without exception, and those who were a little closer to her actually made a clattering and cracking sound, and a large pool of blood glowing with azure starlight came out of their mouths! Only then did they withdraw their minds from the great attraction, and even if they were hurt, they could not delay the ritual!
The twelve of them all erupted with different magical radiances, and they struggled to grip the huge rivets in front of them, injecting all their magic into the magic patterns on the nails.
Airplanes! Buzz –
The magic patterns on the twelve nails were poured from top to bottom, and after having enough magic power, the magic patterns on the magic patterns were activated! All the nails trembled and floated from the ground, enclosing the stone statues in the square.
In an instant, the enclosed area seemed to be left with only black and white, and countless tiny silk threads erupted from the tip of the nail, covering all the black and white areas! Although the area quickly returned to normal, the faint pressure emanating from it could actually be palpitated by the team members standing around the operation.
Nothing can escape this area, absolutely impossible.
Tara blinked her eyes, seeing that the technique was laid out, it was time for her to move on to the next step. The hands that shone with starlight pulled away suddenly, and six spatial rifts were torn apart behind her back. The depths of the rift were only a dull gray at first, but with a single move, the starlight of all colors was extremely rich and instantly drove away the uninteresting gray.
Everyone on the ground closed their mouths in surprise. Everyone had seen the stars in the divination books, and when they were divining, they had to look into the sky with binoculars to see their tracks. At this moment, these stars were dragged one after another along the spatial rift into the world they really lived in!
The earth lost its power to attract all things, and all the stones on the ground floated in the air, and the golden sunlight was brutally impregnated by all kinds of starlight, turning into a noble but chaotic pot of porridge.
Tara slowly grabbed the [Astrological Book] in front of her, which had already become bright and crystalline, and turned one of the pages. Countless dark blue runes poured down from the pages, forming the outline of a spear. Immediately, with a casual stroke of her hand, the big book fell into a bottomless void, and there was no trace of it at this time.
The stars responded to Tara's plea. They are infusing the outline of the spear with their own starlight, taking the form of a physical existence from the concept created by the book. The starlight that filled the air seemed to be twisted by a large hand that appeared out of thin air, and little by little it filled into the outline of the spear.
All the team members immediately pulled out a large piece of brown paper from their bosoms, on which the teleportation technique for departure had already been engraved. They used the last remnants of their mana to activate the spell and pull themselves out of this place.
Seeing that everyone else had left, Tara spoke again, and the square reverberated with a chant announcing end and destruction:
[In my name]
The chaotic starlight layered rapidly as soon as it entered the spear, and the first thing that settled on the tip of the spear was a shiny green.
【Vitality! 】
The second is gray, containing the brown of chaos and misfortune.
[Calamity! 】
This is followed by an azure blue, which is similar to the color of the star power around Tara.
[Fate! 】
These three colors make up the tip of the spear. Only a loud explosion was heard, and the three colors blended up and down, blending together, and the illusory outline quickly became solidified, and the shaped spear tip turned into an impenetrable black.
The next three colors are black, gold, and cream.
[Torture and kill! 】
【Wealth! 】
【Time!】 】
Since then, the body of the spear has been made, and it has been glued together with the tip of the spear that was made first, forming a single unit. The stars behind Tara hadn't disappeared, they seemed to be witnessing the next moment.
[The power of the stars, into the instrument of annihilation]
The waves of magic power wrapped around Tara's body suddenly shattered, and they attached to the huge black spear, making the coercion it exude even higher!
Huh-
The power of the finished spear was so strong that the square beneath Tara was sinking uncontrollably, and the surface of the stone statue was squeezed out of hideous cracks. Tara continued to speak, earnestly chanting the next moir:
[This is the will of the stars, to suppress and destroy you!] 】
Tara's hand held the bottom of the spear and slammed it forward, even without the magic package, she was like a god who was sending down divine punishment!
【Spear of the Stars!】 】
The spear took off his hand, and the stars behind him once again emitted lingering starlight, reflecting on the smooth and warm surface of the spear. The tip of the spear seemed to hook the plane itself, smashing the entire world with the stone statue facing downward.
The stars behind Tara seemed to have foreseen the end, and they slowly shrank back, and the rift quickly closed. The spear was too sharp, and it tossed up the space along the way. Nothing would last more than half a second under the tip of the spear, and even if the surface of the stone statue opened a thin barrier, it turned into a soap bubble in front of the spear, and it was instantly poked to pieces.
Boom! Smoke rose into the sky, large chunks of stone debris exploded everywhere, and even the entire square was reduced to rubble under the spear that Tara had summoned. The huge spear scattered into a puddle of black dust from top to bottom, and even the dust and sand disappeared in the end. In any case, it is just a concept created out of thin air, and the magic extracted from the stars has been used up, so it cannot continue to exist.
"Whew......" Tara exhaled deeply, falling from the sky, slowly, step by step, towards the center of the dust.
She raised her hand and pressed it down, and the dust raised in the air rained down to the ground. I saw a broken boulder emerge from the dust, and if you look closely, it is just the most ordinary stone.
Tara froze, staring at the rivets floating in the air, motionless.
Bang dang!
Suddenly, a rivet quickly smashed down from the air and fell to the ground with a thud. Tara's magical brilliance surged again, and she strode forward, slamming into the air in front of her!
"I knew it couldn't be that simple."
In Tara's eyes, she was holding a silk thread firmly in her hand. It was a black, almost illusory thread, one end of which had been smashed into the ground by a rivet, unable to move, while the other end was shaking as if it were struggling. She couldn't see exactly what was on the other end, but she was sure it wasn't over yet.
This is the thread of fate, the thread of fate that belongs exclusively to the [Miracle Stone].
