Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 1071 "Sword of Glory"

The last time Angel faced an enemy of such a huge size difference was in the Salinger Mausoleum deep in the Violent Sea. At that time, she was just the "Despair" witch and she was helpless against the feathered serpent whose head was as big as a mountain. Even the "petrification" spell could only cause negligible damage.

But at this time, she is also an angel, and also possesses the complete form of a mythical creature. Moreover, because she was blessed with the power of the "War Bishop" while being a "Disaster" witch, the form of the Gorgon is mixed with the "Disaster Giant" belonging to the hunter. Although this part has not reached the status of an angel, it can still make her body as hard as steel, with flames burning on the surface, and causing high temperature damage to any objects it touches, or even burning them directly.

At this moment, the nearly five-meter-long big feet of the "Gloria" were stepping on such a ball of "steel and fire". Although the weight of half of his body was pressing on it, causing the ground to crack, he could not completely crush it.

And as the bodies made contact, the gray-white color representing destruction quickly spread upward from the sole of the giant's right foot, and in an instant it passed over the knee, almost turning his entire leg into a stone statue!

This is the true power of the witch's mythical creature form. Even if Angel is not strong enough to make the dead fall in love with him or make stones turn for him, "petrification" and "disease" can be quickly transmitted to the giant through contact.

Boom——

Amidst the loud noise, cracks appeared on the surface of the giant's right leg, which was as big as a towering tree. The petrified body tissues fell off in patches, and the orange light of dusk overflowed from the gaps. Any object that was illuminated became aged under the erosion of time.

This is different from the theft of life by the "thief" angels, but rather allows all objects to decay and die equally in the dusk.

Klein's historical projection was merely affected by this burst of light, and he immediately felt himself changing from a young man to a middle-aged man, and then continuously changing to an old man. Without any hesitation, he waved the "Star Staff" in his hand, causing another bolt of lightning from the Lord of Storms to fall from the sky and land on the blue-black head of the Cyclops.

Even if the reappeared power was not even one tenth of the power of a god, it was enough to affect an angel. The giant's limbs were immediately twitched by the lightning that spanned the sky and the earth, and more thick curse mist spewed out from the wounds all over his body.

Taking advantage of this momentary opportunity, Angel crawled out from under the petrified giant's right foot, and his whole body turned into a blazing lance, first flying into the sky, and then vertically downward, like a meteor, hitting the giant's face with one eye, and a nose and mouth that had been completely rotten and shapeless. It was like a heavy punch, making him unstable and take a few steps back.

Before he could recover, more meteors, at Angel's call, streaked through the dark night sky and hit the area with intermittent lightning.

If Angel had not been worried that a strong earthquake might destroy the Chernobyl site, he would have even prepared to crack the ground to bury this "glorious one" who was obviously a little sluggish and relatively slow in movement.

When the meteorites were about to hit him, the giant suddenly raised the greatsword made of dusk light in his hand, swept it horizontally across the meteorites carrying heat and destructive power, and erupted with terrifying power.

A storm of countless sword blades emerged from the interior of the meteorite, flashed past Angel, and pierced Klein's body from within his projection.

They turned into a storm powerful enough to destroy the entire wilderness, sweeping away everything around it. Even the curse fog created by the giants themselves was cleared away, as if its origin had been directly destroyed.

The falling meteorite, the "Flame Medusa" Angel floating in the air, and Klein holding the Star Staff were torn into pieces in an instant.

"Tsk, if it was my real body that was attacked, I would have died instantly, without even the chance to swap places with the secret doll or use a paper doll as a substitute. This is much stronger than the silver-white rapier of the Silver Knight..."

Klein muttered in the mist of history, and immediately contacted the secret puppet that had flashed to another place in advance, and asked him to return to the wasteland where the "Blade Storm" had subsided and countless gullies appeared on the ground.

Only then did he understand how the countless gullies near Chernobyl were created.

I'm afraid this "glorious one" is not wandering aimlessly, but has been guarding this building and killing countless intruders.

A thought flashed through Klein's mind, and his sight passed through the increasingly dense curse fog that almost made his secret puppet lose control, and landed in the center of the battlefield.

Angel, who used the "mirror substitute" to avoid the invisible sword, was still floating in the air. His snake-like hair was constantly petrifying the giant below in the flames, making his rotten skin turn gray and peel off, and his huge body seemed to be smaller. Pathogens that can infect and kill undead continued to spread in the air, but were blocked by the cursed fog. Another round of meteorites fell from the sky, and before they got close to the battlefield, they were completely destroyed from the inside out by the invisible sword and turned into dazzling flames.

The giant's counterattack was relatively simple. He kept waving the light blade in his hand. The orange-yellow blades pierced through the void and slashed at Angel through the air. The latter kept using flames and mirror substitutes to change his position, like a spot of light flying around the giant.

Even Klein could see that in a few minutes at most, the "Gloria" who had already become dead and did not have much consciousness would be dragged to death by Angel's endless consumption.

This is a battle at the level of angels, and I feel like it has nothing to do with me... and just standing in this cursed fog, my puppet is almost turning into an undead that obeys the giant... Negative thoughts popped up in Klein's mind. He glanced at the giant as tall as a mountain and found that the other party didn't even have a spiritual line. He was completely the nemesis of the "Fortune Teller".

Even if he could use a Level 0 seal like the "Star Staff" to inflict certain damage to the opponent, the giant with a complete mythical creature form could withstand one attack after another without suffering fatal injuries. As for himself, if he were to be counterattacked by the opponent, he would die instantly, and even his substitute would have little chance of withstanding.

This is the gap between angels and saints.

Watching the battle situation gradually tilting towards Angel, feeling the sluggish feeling of the secret doll being cursed and gradually stepping into death, Klein smiled self-deprecatingly. Suddenly, his expression changed, and his eyes stayed on the blue-purple flame summoned by Angel.

The flame penetrated the invisible sword blade and landed on the giant's rock-like chest, exploding into a ball of brilliant sparks.

Then, a bunch of sparks exploded, and Klein's figure was outlined in it. He was instantly ignited by the high temperature and lost himself in the thick curse fog.

But his last cry still reached Angel's ears:

"Leodro!"

Before the words recited in the giant language fell to the ground, hundreds of silver-white lightning bolts entangled and fell from the sky, covering the majestic figure of the Cyclops, making his blue-black skin as black as charcoal. His chest was completely open, revealing a heart that had long been dried up but was still beating slowly.

The next second, Angel's vague outline appeared inside the giant's chest like a phantom in a mirror. A thick gray-white color spread rapidly with her as the center, turning the giant's heart, body, and even his charred skin into stone.

Boom——

The stone statue fell forward slowly but quickly, and was smashed into pieces in the ravine created by itself. The dust it stirred up spread all around, making the thunder that had not yet completely dissipated seem a little dim.

Angel slowly fell down in the dust, his snake hair and the flames on his body retracted, and his body returned to its original size, but his clothes were inevitably completely damaged, and now he was no different from being naked. Fortunately, with Audrey's previous experience, she was well prepared. She entered the mirror world and changed into spare clothes before returning to the battlefield again, with her hands on her hips looking at the completely petrified body of the "Glory One".

Half a month ago, she was in a miserable state at the hands of a "Glory One" and a "Weather Warlock" in Feysac. Now, she finally got her face back from another angel, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.

Klein also returned from the gap in history. At this moment, he was holding up a fake feather to dispel the curse fog around him, his eyes fixed on the single eye of the giant who died with his eyes open.

Without "He" constantly emitting new curses, the gray-yellow air around them soon improved, and the complete remains of the giant appeared in front of the two. The limbs, which were somewhat fragile due to being turned into stone, were broken into countless pieces of different sizes, covering the ground within a radius of 100 meters.

The only intact right arm of the giant was emitting an orange glow, and the power within was slowly condensing, making the originally dark sky seem to be dyed with the colors of sunset.

Half an hour later, the extraordinary characteristics of this "Glory One" appeared in front of the two people in the form of a giant bone sword with a length of more than five meters and a surface coated with light yellow oil.

"This... I'm afraid even the giants of Silver City can't use it?"

Klein stared in amazement at the first "0" level Sealed Artifact loot they had obtained, wondering whether it would be better to use the power of "Source Castle" or "City of Disaster" to restore it to Beyonder characteristics.

"And it is obvious that it has been contaminated by the power of the 'God of Death' path... This may explain why he has been wandering around Chernobyl. He is obviously dead, but he cannot find peace."

He continued to mutter, but found that Angel had a mysterious smile on his face, came to the hilt of the sword that she couldn't even hold with both arms, jumped up and hugged the bone sword, and said:
"Don't forget, this is the seal of the Warrior Path..."

Her original weapon made by "Dawn Knight" had the ability to change shape and size!

This characteristic is based on the warrior's ability to master various weapons, and it is likely to be a "commonality" similar to sealed objects.

As she expected, after the spirituality spread into the five-meter-long bone sword, the giant sword that she originally could not lift at all quickly changed its appearance and became a straight sword that was just over one meter long, similar to Angelica's blade.

But as she gripped the hilt of the sword, the sealed object emitted a dim yellow light again, and a thick curse mist gushed out, causing Klein, who was standing nearby, to have his hair stand on end, and his inner premonition of danger reached its peak.

The negative effect of the seal has been triggered!

Fortunately, this curse has little effect on me... Angel tried to use his angelic status to barely suppress the bone sword in his hand so that it would no longer emit mist. Then he remembered that Klein was still beside him. He quickly turned around and looked, but was met with a pair of lifeless eyes.

The real Klein had long since disappeared into the mists of history, leaving behind only a historical projection who could die from the curse at any time.

----

After a lot of chaos, the two finally figured out the effects and negative effects of this "Glory One" seal through divination and other means.

As Angel expected, it can transform into various weapons according to the user's wishes, ranging from a small dagger to a giant sword several meters long, but all of them have the lethality to break through all defenses, and can create invisible blades that appear directly in the enemy's body, with effects such as curses and petrification that the user can cast, as if directly chopping the enemy.

The range of this "remote attack" is as long as 20 kilometers. Even if you cannot see the enemy, as long as you can sense the opponent's position through various methods, you can launch an attack directly.

In addition to this, it can also create a "Blade Storm" like the one the Giant just used to attack Angel and Klein, covering all enemies at the same time and sweeping away everything around it.

Because this "Glory One" had suffered some kind of curse from the "God of Death" during his lifetime, this attack has a stronger effect on the dead souls, evil spirits and other beings.

In contrast to its powerful destructive power is its equally terrifying negative effect: regardless of whether anyone is using it or not, it will continue to produce a gray-yellow fog full of curses, gradually covering an area of ​​20 kilometers in radius, gradually transforming all living things inside into undead.

Even if the user can resist the influence of this curse, he will gradually be transformed into an undead creature while holding the weapon. With Angel's angelic status, he can only last for five minutes at most. Beyonders below the High Sequence will probably be transformed as soon as they touch it.

If there are no living creatures around for it to "curse", it will attempt to "dusk" the non-living objects it touches, staining them with an indelible orange-yellow glow. Any original effects will be weakened and their intensity greatly reduced. Even a "level 1" seal will be quickly destroyed.

Other details cannot be tested or quantified for the time being, such as the significantly enhanced strength when holding a weapon, or the control over the undead creatures in the mist...

Angel decided to hand this matter over to Amon, the former governor of Patis in the "City of Dreams", and let him use his power as a "decryption scholar" to compile the specific instructions for this level 0 seal of the "Witch Church".

Before this, Angel, who didn't know how to seal the "Glory", could only temporarily leave it in the mirror space and let it enjoy polluting the useless tables, chairs and tableware inside.

After throwing the bone sword into the mirror, Angel looked at Klein complacently and asked:
"I'm going to name it 'Sword of Glory'...what do you think?"

Not very good, about the same as the "Box of the Old Days" and "Wishing Magic Lamp", and even worse than "Angelica's Blade" and "Alesukhod's Pen"... Klein muttered silently, and when he saw Angel's eyes becoming more dangerous, he nodded quickly:
"It sounds pretty good."

After resolving the naming issue of the sealed object, the two once again set out on the journey to "Chernobyl", the core area of ​​the cursed fog, in the center of the ravine-covered plain.

With the efforts of constantly pulling the "Wings of Death" feathers from the historical pore images to disperse the gray-yellow fog, they soon came to an extremely deep ravine.

Unlike the traces created by the Cyclops around it, this ravine was wide and deep. Its edge first sloped down steeply and then became gentle. At the bottom was the gray-white building complex that Angel had seen in the illusion created by Klein.

After confirming it with her naked eyes, she was finally sure that this was the research institute that she had seen in history books in her previous life and had long been sealed and abandoned. The only difference was that its surface, which was supposed to be made of reinforced concrete, was now almost smooth and without any gaps, as if it had been "transformed" by some mysterious force.

This immediately posed a practical problem to the two men: how to get into this huge building.
