Time Stop.
It was one of the most overpowered spells among wizards, and it was also a legendary spell that could crush non-spellcasters. The effect of this spell was very simple. Within a certain range, time would be frozen, and only the caster would be able to move freely during this time. Generally speaking, the duration of Time Stop was between 15 seconds to 60 seconds. During this time, everyone else would be in a state of near immobility, while the Spell Caster was completely free to move. However, during this time, no matter if the Spell Caster cast a spell or carried out a physical attack, it would not take effect immediately. It would only take effect after the spell ended.
Therefore!
This was why the Swamp King was cut into pieces after Søren retreated with Vivian in his arms.
Because the Time Stop spell was too abnormal, many people had studied ways to deal with it. First of all, the simplest way was the monk. The legendary monk's [Yin Moon Style] could make them immune to all time spells when they were launched. Even the gods who controlled time couldn't control them. However, [Lunar Style] was a very difficult skill to learn. There were not many legendary monks in the world, and those who could learn [Lunar Style] were even rarer.
The second way was to predict the escape.
Time Stop didn't cover a large area, and anything that entered the area would be infinitely close to being in a static state. Therefore, if one could predict it in advance, there were many ways to avoid it. Among them, Søren was most familiar with the 'Shadow Plane Teleportation'. If he could enter the shadow plane before the time stop was cast, he would be rejected by the frozen time. Søren's body would enter the shadow plane, and after the time stop was over, he could come out again.
There were many ways to escape like this.
However, the key was to temporarily leave the current plane and space. This way, one could avoid the effect of time stop, and then teleport back after the spell was over. Wizard's Plane Exile, Chaos Teleportation, Interplanar Teleportation, and so on could all achieve this effect. However, one had to have a very high ability to predict spells, and good luck. Even Søren only had a 30% chance of successfully predicting and avoiding time stop.
This was because a prepared spellcaster was quite scary!
If the above two conditions were not met, then he could only rely on himself to endure. If he wanted to take it head-on, he would have to prepare a trigger-type spell or a trigger-type equipment. He would have to activate a protective energy at the moment before Time Stop, or activate a 'Legendary Tenacity' ability at the moment before Time Stop. That way, he would be able to hold on a little longer, but it was hard to say whether he could survive. It was useless to rely on combat skills alone. He had to use a special ability, which was [Sixth Sense] and [Super Sixth Sense]. [Remark: Even when Søren was at his peak, he only acquired the Sixth Sense ability. He didn't even touch the door of the more advanced ability, Super Sixth Sense.]
This was a special ability that was even harder to master than [Danger Sense]. Not only did it require a strong perception, but there were also other special requirements.
Because the effect of Time Stop was too overpowered, many people tried to simulate the method to break it. Some of them even spiritualized themselves in advance and had multiple protective energy triggers, etc. But in the end, there was only one publicly recognized method that had the best effect, and that was to turn oneself into a [Demigod] or above. Starting from the Demigod level, all gods were immune to Time Stop. They had their own domain ability, and most of the time spells were ineffective against them.
So.
Time Stop was a legendary spell that could crush any creature below the Demigod level!
…
The Swamp King was dead!
A strange light immediately appeared in Søren's eyes. This light didn't fly to Søren's position, but it gradually merged into Vivian's body. Traces of divine radiance appeared, and the Swamp King's body seemed to have lost some mysterious and unknown power. However, Vivian's beautiful big eyes couldn't help but flash a strange light. That light was like a god that made people respect her. This strange phenomenon only lasted for a while. Then, the little girl's expression was a little sleepy. She looked up at Søren and said with a sleepy voice, "Big brother! I'm so sleepy! … "
Before she finished speaking, Vivian fell asleep just like that.
Søren hugged Vivian's petite body and at the same time, rolled to dodge the javelin thrown by the enemy. Because the Swamp King was dead, the enemy quickly began to collapse, especially the enslaved Kou Fishmen. They almost immediately fled to the distance. However, there were still enemies who stayed to fight, and that was the mixed-blood descendants of the Swamp King. Søren jumped and landed on the ghost ship, Deadman's Voice, and then put the sleeping Vivian in a safe place.
The divinity of the Swamp King was absorbed by her!
As the favored one of the ancient demon lord [Dagon], the Swamp King had divinity from the demon god of the abyss. Although this divinity was very weak, and it was given during the blasphemy ceremony, Søren was still a little worried about whether Vivian could successfully merge with it. He began to control the living ropes on the ghost ship and killed the enemies who were still resisting one by one. When the battle was finally over, the sea was already blood-red. No one knew how many creatures had died here. Anyway, there were not many Fishmen who survived.
"Your Excellency!"
The first mate controlled the pirate ship to come over. He looked quite excited, and there were wounds on his arms and abdomen. He said excitedly, "We won! The Swamp King is dead! Your Excellency is now qualified to be the new pirate king! As long as this news spreads, many pirates in the nearby sea will come to us! "
Søren's expression was not very excited. He looked at the few men on the deck and said in a deep voice, "How are the casualties?"
The first mate's face was a little gloomy and replied, "More than half of the casualties, and the second mate also died."
A lot of people died.
More than 50% of the pirates that Søren brought out were lost! These were the pirates that he had already subdued!
But the results were also very good.
Søren sank a pirate ship and captured two pirate ships, but he still let some of the enemies escape. Because Søren did not have the strength to chase after the enemies. Among them, the pirates and human warships escaped. One warship was sunk to the bottom of the sea, and the other one was penetrated. It was estimated that it would not be long before it sank. The only intact one was the Swamp King's warship. This giant warship was basically intact, but there were not enough people to drive it back.
So they could only use the ghost ship to drag it back!
…
The night was getting darker.
Søren held Vivian and looked up at the sky. The stars under the night sky were very dim. The ghost ship was escorting nearby.
He looked at the data in front of him and then fell into deep thought.
"Launch Decapitation attack!"
"Decapitation successful! … Target killed! … You have learned something in the battle! … "
"You have obtained part of the information of [Sword Form: Decapitation]."
"In battle after battle, you have mastered new combat skills. You have learned the combat skill [Sword Form: Decapitation]! … "
…
"Launch Decapitation attack!"
"Decapitation successful! … Target killed! … You have learned something in the battle! … "
"You have obtained part of the information of [Sword Form: Decapitation]."
"Battle experience!"
"In battle after battle, your combat skills have gradually improved!"
"You have obtained part of the information of [Dual-wielding]."
…
This was a battle.
Søren directly learned [Sword Form: Decapitation]. At the same time, he also obtained the information of [Sword Form: Decapitation] and [Dual-wielding] for the second time. In other words, as long as there was another notification, Søren could master two powerful skills at the same time. Among them, [Sword Form: Decapitation] was already very familiar to Søren. [Dual-wielding] still needed some accumulation. If he could master [Dual-wielding], Søren could directly use the ability points obtained from leveling up to further master [Greater Dual-wielding].
The future path.
Søren needed to find a way to upgrade his skill to [Legendary Dual-wielding].
When that time came, his attack speed would reach a jaw-dropping level. With enough attributes, it was even possible to block bullets with a sword.
A day passed quickly.
Just when Søren thought that Vivian would be asleep for a long time after absorbing the divinity of the Swamp King, the little girl woke up the next morning. But she only woke up for a short while.
The light of the morning sun shone.
Søren was awakened by the slight movement of the little girl in his arms. Vivian gently opened her eyes and saw Søren. The corner of her mouth revealed a sweet smile, and then she whispered, "Big brother. I had a dream. "
Søren was pleasantly surprised. When he saw that she was awake, he immediately asked, "What did you dream of?"
"I dreamed of the Swamp King." Vivian raised her white little hand and rubbed the corner of her eyes. She whispered, "That monster actually wanted to fight with me, but I quickly killed it again."
"Hmm! … "
"But after I killed it, there seemed to be a bigger monster that came out! … It was a bit like a huge octopus, but its head was very strange. It looked like a strange fish. "
"Hmm! … I'm so sleepy! … Big brother! … Do I have to kill that strange octopus as well? … "
Vivian's voice became softer and softer, and then she fell asleep again.
However, Søren's expression was quite surprised because he realized that Vivian seemed to be destroying the divinity's consciousness by herself. This was something that had never happened before.
In the past, Vivian would gradually wake up after he destroyed the divinity's consciousness.
But now, she did wake up after destroying the divinity's consciousness, but she seemed to have just destroyed the Swamp King's consciousness and not the Ancient Abyssal Lord [Dagon].
This made Søren a little worried!
