I created the Bureau of Anomaly Control

Chapter 315 313. Pre-battle Preparations

Federal Advanced Storage.

Shadow stood before Kang Shoucheng and Ma En, looking at the rows of extraordinary items displayed in various glass cabinets and said:

"Combining your requests and the information we have collected, and after several days of analysis by professional departments, we have specially prepared one hundred and forty-seven extraordinary items suitable for you to use in this battle.

"I and other Rank Ⅴ ability users have also found a few that we think are the most useful, and I will focus on introducing them to you later, but in the end, you have to choose what to bring to the battle, after all, you must know yourself best.

"But actually, you don't need to worry too much about what to choose, because according to the duel contract, there are no restrictions on the number of equipment used, only restrictions on the extraordinary level of the items you carry. If you want, you can directly carry these one hundred and forty-seven props to participate in the battle.

"Of course, no one can use so many extraordinary items at the same time, and these things are not useful just because there are many. If the Church wants to, they can easily take out dozens of holy artifacts and stuff them to Ivani, but that will only hinder her performance."

In fact, normally speaking, the items selected by a Rank Ⅴ ability user like him are definitely the most suitable, and they didn't make the decision alone. The main reason why they can't be completely sure what to choose is because they don't really fully understand Ma En.

Among the top Rank Ⅳ ability users, Ma En can also be said to be one of the more mysterious ones. When he contacted the Federation, he never fully revealed his abilities, and would only expose the abilities he mastered when faced with challenges that required him to show his abilities.

This is also the reason why some federal politicians suspected him at the earliest time, but Shadow felt that this was actually a misunderstanding. After a few brief contacts, he felt that Ma En was likely just being cautious and not exposing his abilities casually.

Kang Shoucheng said with some pride:

"Although our inventory is not as suitable for their believers as the Holy Church, we have enough quantity, so if you can find suitable equipment, I think the final effect will definitely not be worse than Ivani using holy artifacts.

"This is the list."

As he said that, he handed a tablet device in his hand to Ma En, which displayed a brief introduction of all the extraordinary objects.

Ma En began to browse the list:

"There are quite a lot of things."

It's a pity that Rank Ⅴ extraordinary items can't be used in this duel, otherwise he could have taken the opportunity to run away directly after borrowing the props.

While he was reading the list, Shadow was also leading them forward:

"After I give a brief introduction, you can directly ask Old Kang to ask for these props, and you can also come to change different equipment at any time to try and hone in the training ground, and finally determine what you want to use.

"As an inquisitor, Ivani is very good at close combat. They have been receiving close combat training all year round, and their physical fitness has reached the top level of Rank Ⅳ under the immersion of the power of heaven, and she also holds the best matching armor and weapons.

"Not only that, she also possesses divine magic of the same level. Ivani's teacher, Raphael, is the strongest divine magic master of the contemporary era, and the several holy artifacts she usually carries can also strengthen the use, power, casting speed, and duration of divine magic in all aspects. With the assistance of these things, the divine magic she uses is also among the strongest of the same rank.

"And as a believer, she also has a special mental immunity. Faith in the gods can help them resist mental intrusion, and her will is also considered firm among the inquisitors, but with your level of mental ability, you should still be able to suppress her in this regard.

"It's a pity that she also knows this is her weakness. She would have worn props used to strengthen her mental resistance, and now that they know that the opponent is you, they will definitely continue to work hard in this area. If you want to surpass her on a mental level, you can't rely solely on your own mental abilities themselves.

"And relying on other various props, she can already be said to have no weaknesses in all aspects, speed, defense, damage ability, long-range attack, defense against mental abilities.

"But with only these, it is difficult to say who is stronger or weaker compared to you who once killed Hong Yuan.

"Her strongest point is still the faith and heaven behind her. As a blessed one, she can summon the power of heaven, and the angel who will respond to her summons and give her protection is also the strongest Rank Ⅳ ability user. As far as I know, she has been the guardian angel of several blessed ones.

"When Ivani is possessed, she will also receive an all-round enhancement. Her body, which is already close to the peak, will directly reach the theoretical limit strength of the same rank, and she will also grow wings that can give her extremely high mobility. Divine magic will become as simple as breathing for her, and the sacred power of heaven will surround her, which can heal her wounds and burn her enemies.

"What you are going to face are two limit ability users of the same rank, and they will be concentrated under the control and drive of the same will to the extent that one plus one equals two. Ivani is also able to become the strongest among all ability users of the same rank through this method.

"Ivani is confident that she can win because what you have to face is actually two top ability users with similar strength to you. They actually cheated in a way that complies with the constraints, and this is also an important technology for the Church to always maintain its constant victory.

"Their important spokespersons in the mortal world can borrow the power of angels. Even if the contemporary Pope and the Inquisition are not strong, they can rely on the power of angels to reach a fairly good level, and will not be reduced to a weak force because there are no suitable candidates."

Ma En had also seen inquisitors who had been possessed by summoned angels. In fact, the strongest situation for this kind of possession ability is to use it on two top-level ability users of the same rank.

It is almost impossible for the strongest ability users who have no way forward to improve, but the Church has found a way, which is to concentrate two extreme forces on one manipulator. This technology is very similar to his planned composite top-level ability user employees, but he can achieve this more flexibly with the Abnormal Control Bureau, and he does not need the cooperation of the other party.

Ma En asked:

"Sounds like she's hard to deal with."

Kang Shoucheng said:

"That's why we need to prepare things for you."

Shadow led them to a glass cabinet, which contained a roll of ancient parchment:

"If there is anything that is most suitable for dealing with the Church, it is naturally the power of hell that was born to destroy them. The Federation once obtained this unfinished contract hundreds of years ago.

"The original owner of the contract made a bet with the devil, and eventually won the victory through his own tricks, but after winning the contract, he did not immediately redeem his reward, but retained it by relying on the additional terms before signing.

"Guess what he won?"

Ma En guessed:

"The power of hell?"

Shadow said with a smile:

"No, he won that devil, and this devil named Skinner was once a very powerful demon. Before he betrayed his oath, he was a professional angel hunter, and now he is a slave belonging to our Federation. We will temporarily transfer him to your name.

"Interesting, isn't it? This battle cannot bring other people in, but in the era when we signed the agreement with Atlantis, slaves were not considered 'people'. It is the same as other props and belongs to your property.

"However, according to the law at that time, you can only bring one slave at most during a duel, otherwise we should be able to find you two slaves, but it doesn't matter, they are not as useful as this Skinner.

"After all, not everyone has the rich experience and ability to fight angels.

"However, although this devil can be said to be at the top of the same rank, he is different from you talented guys. You are all standing at the peak of the same rank's limit. If you want to go further, you can only be promoted to Rank Ⅴ.

"This is something you definitely have to bring. Just take it directly."

Shadow reached directly into the glass cabinet, took out the scroll inside, and handed it to Ma En.

Ma En casually put it into his "arms".

[

Abnormal Entity: Skinner Slave Contract (Hell Devil)

Abnormal Strength: Ⅳ-4

Danger Level: Ⅳ-4

Description:

The devil enslaved by the famous scholar Zax, good at fighting, magic, and deception, has many years of experience fighting angels during the demon period, and is extremely fond of collecting the entire skin of angels and good people.

"How did you get this?" Ma En asked curiously, "Did you kill the person who signed the contract?"

Kang Shoucheng quickly stood up to defend:

"What do you think of our Federation? We are not robbers. The original owner of this thing sold it at a low price immediately after getting it, and then it naturally flowed into our hands."

Shadow continued to walk forward:

"He's right. The creator of this contract may still be alive. We didn't kill him.

"We just killed his last holder, but you just need to hold it.

"Although this contract doesn't improve it very much, you can take it directly without considering anything. Many top-level extraordinary equipment often have requirements for users. For example, the Church's holy artifacts can only be used well by their own members.

"Actually, we also have a few holy artifacts, but it's not the same concept for you to use that thing as Ivani, and it's not suitable to take it out during that battle. What's suitable for you is something that specifically deals with holy artifacts.

"For example, this."

The second thing that appeared in front of him was a broken sword stained with fresh blood. The position of the sword body was only less than twenty centimeters long, and it looked like a short sword.

Ma En asked:

"What is this?"

Shadow introduced:

"If you know something about the Church's scriptures, you should have heard of the three assassinations of the destined returnee before his death. This broken sword is the long sword used by the second assassin, but what you see now is not the state it was in just after assassinating the destined returnee.

"When it was first stained with the blood of the destined returnee, it was regarded as evidence and sealed. After his death, it was taken out and enshrined as a holy object stained with divine power, and shortly after the destined returnee died, it possessed the powerful power of Rank Ⅴ.

"But not long after that, a demon blasphemed this weapon, turning it into a taboo evil magic sword, and then heaven and hell kept snatching this weapon, until it was broken into several pieces for various reasons seven hundred years ago.

"And we got this fragment. Now it doesn't have any divine power, but if you wear it as an ornament on the battlefield of that duel, it can still suppress the power of the holy artifacts carried by Ivani to a certain extent.

"That is to say, as long as you carry it, Ivani will be weakened, so this is also an essential extraordinary item for you.

"The Church doesn't actually know that this fragment has fallen into our hands, and as long as you carry it close to Ivani, the possessed angel will definitely notice its existence.

"After you finish fighting, the Church will definitely try to retrieve this fragment, and we will definitely have to return it at that time. The difference is only how much benefit we can exchange for it, but the purpose of our storing this thing is to use it to exchange benefits with them.

"It's not a loss to use it here now."

As Shadow said that, he reached out to the glass cabinet, but this time he didn't reach directly in, but first pressed a few buttons, and then waited quietly for about five seconds before taking out the broken sword from under the slowly rising glass cabinet.

"Keep it, the value of this thing is not comparable to other Rank Ⅳ extraordinary items."

Ma En took it and put it into his "arms" again.

[

Abnormal Entity: Stained Broken Sword Fragment

Abnormal Strength: Ⅳ-5

Danger Level: Ⅳ-5

Description:

The blasphemous broken sword that assassinated the destined returnee has the hardness of the same rank limit, but is no longer sharp, and the power in it cannot be operated in a formed way, and it can suppress extraordinary items with the power of the destined returnee just by existing.

]

Kang Shoucheng showed a distressed expression when he saw his casual movements, obviously worried that he would accidentally leave some scratches on this holy sword, but he still tried his best to restrain the urge to remind him a few words.

Shadow then took Ma En a few steps forward:

"These two are the types that can be used as soon as you bring them, and they are all we have selected from this type. There must be similar props in the remaining one hundred and more, but we all think those are less effective. After all, your opponent is not a simple character.

"Next, I'm going to take you to see three sets of armor from different eras. These were all decided by me and other Rank Ⅴ ability users after several debates. They have to be chosen after trade-offs before they can be brought on. After all, you can't wear three sets of armor to the battlefield.

"They don't have the effect of being compatible with other armors either."

Ma En asked curiously:

"What kind of armor are those three sets?"

Shadow said:

"What I value is a set of mechanical armor that can improve mental abilities, and an old guy recommended you a set of magical armor from the Gula Empire, and Li Hu chose you a set of semi-biological armor forged by the Great Demon of Hell.

"They are all very strong, so I also want to know which one you will choose?"
