Chapter 33: I'm Waiting for a CD, What Are You Waiting For? (Ask for follow-up)
"So what flaws did that guy show?"
Compared to Doris, who was threatened by the Holy Sword, Carter's side seemed to be at ease, and he was curious about how Joshua knew that Doris was an inner ghost.
"If you want to start at the beginning, it's the time of the show."
Joshua looked at the battlefield below, although the strength of the ancient leather giant was not trivial, but it was still not enough in front of Lilith who held the brilliant holy sword, except for ...... The ancient leather giant who absorbed the remains of Father Andrei.
At this time, Joshua understood that he wanted to buy time for the other party, and the legend in front of him could drag on for a while.
If the other party wanted to hear it, then Joshua didn't mind telling the other person for a day and a night.
"Traces of the Predator Brotherhood have appeared since Lilith arrived here, and this information has no effect at the beginning, but only when it is reversed afterwards."
"The real first problem is that every time I meet the black-robed man, Doris is not there, but the black-robed man never fights Lilith."
"At first, I thought it was a soft pinch of persimmons, but after I showed my strength, it was still like this, which is incredible."
As a knight sent by the church's higher echelons to protect the Holy Maiden, Doris naturally has nothing to say in terms of strength, but everything she shows in Black Mountain Town seems ridiculous.
Except for giving Skaven a backstab before, there was no bright performance.
Can such a person really take on the duty of guardian saints?
"It's a reason, but it's not evidence."
Of course, Carter could see Lilith's movements below, but he wasn't in a hurry at all, wasn't he just stalling for time?
It's the same who can't afford it.
[Both of them want to use Doris's affair to stall for time, which makes Joshua feel a little laughed.]
I'm waiting for a CD, what are you waiting for? 】
Under this absolute advantage, the other party still wants to delay time?
Joshua frowned slightly, vaguely aware that time was not on his side.
"It's not proof, but there were two occasions when Doris looked suspicious, once when she was attacked on her front foot when she left her back foot, and once when I had an argument with Adolf, she happened to show up and passed the suspicion on Adolf, intentionally or not."
The first time was obviously Doris's order to let her stay in the orphanage to protect the children, but Doris left her post without permission, which led to the invasion of the black-robed man.
If this can be explained by the fact that her duty is to protect Lilith, then what about taking the initiative to leave Lilith when the Sage of the Darkmoon may be nearby, thereby preventing the conflict between Joshua and Adolf?
Inconsistency, I don't know what to say.
At the same time, Joshua came directly behind Carter in a flash, and since he knew that the other party also wanted to delay time, he must not let the other party succeed.
The disparity between the two sides was so great that if a legendary magician was prepared enough, Joshua would have no chance of victory.
Unfortunately, the sword was blocked by a barrier built by a strong wind.
"That's true, that's the star climbing and moon picking that Leon once passed to the leader of the forbidden army, but I didn't expect you to be able to use it so skillfully in just a few days."
Carter turned slowly, and the wind howled around him, it was the wind that Lilith had once protected from the wind, this was the magic that used the wind around him to block long-range attacks.
However, in the face of absolute strength, even Joshua's blow at such a close range can be as strong as an enchantment, so ......
The pale blue flames spread along the wind, directly enveloping Carter's body, and the legendary magician, who had been calm since his appearance, frowned for the first time.
The construction of magic power lies in precision, and although Carter is not a legend of cultivating fighting spirit, his intuition still tells him at this moment.
Escape.
"Boom~"
The blue flames collapsed and directly submerged Carter's original position, but Joshua's expression did not change at all.
"This is the legend? The trick of space is really tough. ”
There was no sense of concentration, and at the same time, Joshua's cleansing flame did not feel anything passing through it, and there was no doubt that it was a trick in space.
"Under the legend is just a process of quantitative change, and the legend is the node of qualitative change, whether it is the sixth sense or the real vision, this is the absolute gap between me and you."
Carter's voice came from above, and he seemed to be standing in mid-air looking down on Joshua with ease, but the actual reason was that he couldn't teleport farther away in a short period of time with his strength.
Is this what Doris said about Cangyan? It's tricky.
Along with the thought was a blade of wind, which sliced off a corner of its own garment, and on it a little blue flame burned.
"It didn't ignite the garment, which means it didn't necessarily need supplies, fun fire, fun magic."
Naturally, this flame Doris had been warned of in advance, and Carter was naturally cautious about it, as a magician who wanted to construct magic precisely, he did not have the strange habit of pain.
I don't feel the other person's consciousness.
Joshua had actually entered the state of the sixth sense when he attacked just now, but the sixth sense, which was usually invincible, was invalid.
The opponent's consciousness is tightly wrapped in spiritual power, which makes it difficult for Joshua to predict the opponent's consciousness in advance, which means that in the battle above the legend, the sixth sense cannot produce a crushing effect.
But it's still the same sentence, if the difference in strength is too big, the French military salute will be held, then the battle is a fart.
Before the war, everyone compares the size, then the world will be peaceful, right?
Carter...... Is he already like this? ”
Juno looked at the once devout believer, if it was the former Carter, he would never do such a thing.
It's because of piety that pollution is so bad.
But why is your own body polluted, and what do you ...... Forgot something?
"Juno, I'm going to kill him next."
Joshua's tone was cold, he would never let go of the person who desecrated the priest's body, and what he said to Juno at this time was not asking for consent.
It's just a notice.
"Kill, let him be liberated, and let the once good soul be redeemed."
No matter what kind of person Carter was in the past, it has nothing to do with the present, and now he does bring suffering to this town of his own will.
Then he must bear the consequences of this.
"It's on, Juno."
"Let him taste fear. ”】
A bitter chill emanated from the steel slasher, and the warm air fell on the blade and condensed small droplets of water, which stabbed Carter in a straight line in mid-air as Joshua sprinted.
[The solid earth softens, and sharp cones of stone rise from the ground and pierce Joshua. 】
Yes, Joshua is true that he can't peek into the other person's mind to make predictions because the other party is a legendary magician, but the sixth sense still exists, and the narration of the fate text is still showing.
Those stone cones that rushed into the sky and wanted to pierce Joshua not only failed to hurt Joshua, but instead became the fulcrum for him to borrow power in space, allowing Joshua to kill Carter faster.
So fast.
Carter was shocked by Joshua's speed, that star-climbing body was indeed one of the strongest in this era, and now with a strange Joshua, if it was an ordinary magician, it would have been pierced.
Fortunately, Carter himself is an orc, and he is more intuitive than humans, and with Doris's intelligence, he naturally keeps an eye on it.
But......
"Smack~"
Originally, Joshua could only rely on the characteristics of the sin purifying Cangyan to break through, and the Cangfeng Protector was shredded like glass, with the exposed steel sword emitting a faint moonlight.
It was Carter's feeling that was both familiar and strange.
"Found you."
Blue flames reappeared above the cold blade, and Carter knew that Joshua's surge in strength must have been due to the power of the moon god.
If Joshua is really pushed into a hurry, then he will lose more than he loses.
The fivefold enchantment rose to his mind, and directly stopped Jian Feng's thoughts, and Joshua slashed them all in one go, and the existence of this obstacle made the attack that could have cut it in two only scratched the opponent's arm.
But that's enough.
"This fire...... It hurts, it hurts...... Just kidding. ”
Determined how much pain it could cause and how hard the magic would be, Carter let out two symbolic wails, and then a wind blade slashed off his sin stained arm.
Without the resistance of the magic, soon the arm smelled of burnt mush before it hit the ground.
Carter, on the other hand, spilled a bottle of crimson liquid on top of the incision in his arm, and after a burst of brutal growth of flesh, a brand new arm grew.
"That's ...... A degraded philosopher's stone? This kind of alchemy prop, which requires the sacrifice of a large number of lives, should be destroyed as a refining method. ”
Juno recognized the essence of the potion at a glance.
Philosopher's Stone, Red Elixir, Philosopher's Stone, Extraneous Element...... Although it is not a miracle in nature, it is a catalyst triggered by miracles.
"The Philosopher's Stone is unique, when there is a Philosopher's Stone in this world, then no matter how many lives are sacrificed, the second one cannot be refined, and Carter should know this."
Thousands of years ago, the forces could not stand the actions of some mad alchemists, and they took the only Philosopher's Stone, and then destroyed all known alchemy methods.
That Philosopher's Stone is now sealed in the imperial capital of the Human Empire, and there are humans, dwarves, orcs, elves, and dragons on it, and no one can use them under many seals.
At the same time, in order to prevent the rest of the alchemists from continuing to try the research of the Philosopher's Stone, the Alchemists' Guild will explain it after issuing the evaluation of each high-level alchemist.
I just hope that no one will try this useless work.
It is impossible for Carter not to know this, even if the refining method of the Philosopher's Stone is reproduced in this case, the final thing that comes out is just this kind of deteriorated Philosopher's Stone.
Carter understands that this is still the case, and the only answer is that he treats these things as mere consumables.
Treat human life as a consumable to restore oneself.
"That means killing him as soon as possible, right?"
For the god of war in front of him, Joshua will not have more emotions, no matter what the other party does, Joshua does not care and will choose to forgive after all...... Who would have to deal with a dying man.
"It's better to be a little serious. ”】
The moonlight on the steel sword became more and more brilliant, and Juno, who was in the middle of it, immediately felt the power mobilized by Joshua.
The pale blue flames climbed up the blade of the steel slasher, and at the same time......
"Flames, curse me."
Joshua opened his palm, and the orange-red flames began to grow in his hands, turning into a flaming greatsword that he carried on his shoulder, and under the firelight was his cold face.
Now for the last question, how to attack Carter far in the sky.
It's not that Joshua can't physically try to "fly" by stepping on the air, but that way is stupid.
Mobility is already inferior to that of a mage who has mastered the art of wind control, let alone caught a legendary mage who has begun to dabble in space.
So...... Wouldn't it be nice to have wings like a bird?
When this thought arose, Joshua's back exploded, and the power of original sin appeared as a physical manifestation for the first time.
It was pitch black and sticky like asphalt, and instead of spilling it on the ground after breaking through Joshua's body, it condensed into the form of dead branches and finally turned into a pair of wings.
The wings vibrated slightly, and then the howling wind sent Joshua directly into the night sky.
"Now, begin your confession."
Joshua raised the great sword of fire in his hand, and when he saw it rising in the wind, the fire became more and more vigorous, and at first it could be described as "sword", and then it could only be called "pillar".
It was almost like Joshua smashing Carter with a pillar in his hand.
Unreasonable.
"Boom~"
Carter broke through the space to dodge the blow and came behind Joshua, where he heard the sound of the sky cracking.
Under Joshua's unsuccessful sword, the houses, the ground, and even the ancient leather giants collapsed at the touch of a button, leaving a deep pit in the ground, and the entire town of Montenegro was like a small earthquake.
"It's unbelievable."
Carter finally understood the reason for Doris's frequent misses, and this ability to reconstruct magic without being limited to acting freely was undoubtedly the ability of the legendary magician after gaining true vision.
If the magicians under the legend are just some fools who read from the books, then when they arrive at the legend, they have the ability to disassemble and reconstruct.
This relies on a true vision of the elemental activity and magical architecture.
At this level, there are only a few kinds of magic for magicians.
But Joshua apparently didn't arrive at the legend, Carter can be sure, then the only explanation is magic.
Those false gods use magic to deceive people's minds.
Such people must be nipped in the bud, otherwise the Church of Light will inevitably have a terrible existence in the future.
One of the strongest demigods like Leon.
