Vahina fumbled around the cloak for a while and soon found a clue. Spells had a fixed form. Of course, powerful wizards could do whatever they wanted. But generally speaking, they had to follow the basic principles. The witches who lived on the banks of the Magic River all year round believed that there were thirty-six thousand runes full of mysterious power in this world. These runes could summarize all the laws of this world, and runic magic and holy magic were built on this foundation.
These runes were also the most commonly used activation spells for magical items.
For example, the most common ones were 'Eaam' (Earth), 'Oss' (Wind), 'Vo' (Water), and 'Flame' (Fire).
The aura of the earth on the cloak was very strong. In fact, except for the artifacts made by the Silver and Gold races, most of the treasures in the earliest era came from the Elemental Realm. Therefore, the noble daughter tried the 'Giant Poem', which described the origin of the earth races. There were twelve hundred runes in this codex, and it was almost impossible to try them all.
But she was very experienced. Usually, the activation spell had to be chosen according to the ability of the magic item, so the range was very narrow.
She tried 'Yala's Tooth' and 'Trembling Rune', which represented shadow. Then, her eyebrows twitched slightly, and she raised her head proudly and handed the cloak to Brando.
Her sky-blue eyes were filled with the pride of a young girl, and the corners of her pursed lips could not help but curl up slightly, as if to say, 'How is it?'
Brando glanced at her and took the cloak. A line of small green words immediately popped up in his vision:
King Buni's Cloak of Concealment. Magic resistance 30%. Activation ability: Enter a state of concealment for one hundred and twenty breaths. During this time, the character will disappear from the world (although the character can still feel everything around them). Activation spell: Far.
This meant that the equipment had been 'appraised'.
The process of finding out the 'function' of a treasure and the 'activation spell' was called 'appraisal' in the Amber World. Appraisal was indeed a profession similar to Spellswordsmen and Curse Knight.
Spellswordsmen were not swordsmen who used magic. Although they could use magic, their real strength was in analyzing magic to fight against wizards. They were usually more proficient in anti-magic, not magic.
However, Brando was not in the mood to think about anything else when he saw this thing. Everything was obscured — the description was' as if it had disappeared from this world '. He could not help but twitch the corner of his eye.
According to the laws of The Amber Sword, Omniscient Concealment meant that no one existed in any of the main planes of this world, including the Material Plane, the four Elemental Planes, and the two Energy Planes. Because these seven worlds overlapped and formed the entirety of Wohnde, anyone who existed in this world at any moment had to be based on these seven worlds, just like how humans had to stand on the ground.
This was very different from the original invisibility.
In the case of Mystery Spells, Invisibility was a spell that used Air or Water Magic to refract light, or to distort the laws of nature to change the path of light to achieve the purpose of deceiving one's vision. In the end, it was just a type of illusion. Although it could not be seen, it could still be heard and smelled.
He might even run into something head-on.
However, the All Things Cloak was much stronger. At least Brando knew that this thing had a simple use, and that was to pass through walls. Because under the effect of Omniscient Concealment, the 'walls' that existed in this world did not exist to the target.
Although the effect only lasted for a short 120 breaths, which was about five minutes, it was perfect for escaping.
It was not an exaggeration to say that this thing was a Divine Artifact to those who needed it, and in addition to its 30% magic resistance, it was definitely worthy of its status as a treasure that existed in legends. The legendary cloak hidden in the Giant King's treasure vault did not disgrace its owner in the slightest.
Brando raised the cloak and covered the three of them. He chanted: "Far!"
The cloak suddenly became transparent, and the feeling was very strange. It was as if a layer of water was surrounding them.
Sifrid's eyes widened as she looked at the scenery around them. She even looked at Brando with admiration. Young people were always able to do things that she did not expect.
But Brando himself also took a while to get used to this state. He knew that they were now under the effect of Omniscient Concealment. In the game, only famous solo players had equipment with such properties, and he had never seen one before.
"H-how did you know the incantation? I didn't tell you!" Vahina was extremely shocked. She only reacted at this moment and stared at Brando's face in shock.
Brando was stunned.
He immediately realized that he had made a grave mistake. In the game, once an item was appraised, the player could directly see its properties and use it. But he forgot that this was not the game.
It was the same as the appraisal between NPCs. The appraiser needed to describe the function of the equipment. His actions earlier were considered as foresight. Unless he could prove that he had Hoshi Jian's bloodline, there was a high possibility that he would be burned at the stake.
Brando's face stiffened. He looked at Vahina's shocked face and did not know where to begin. It did not make sense for him to say that he already had the ability to appraise equipment, or he would not have waited for Vahina to appraise it.
But if he did not, then how did he know the incantation to activate it?
"Hmm … … Didn't you say that it's a passage in the Giant's poem? Other than Yala's Fangs, which represents the shadow, there's only one other thing that's related to concealment … … So I gave it a try … …" Brendel coughed, his mind turning quickly. "… … Didn't you say that it's a passage in the Giant's poem?
"You succeeded?!" Vahina asked in disbelief. It was too easy! Then why did they need experts like them to analyze incantations? Why not just make a guess?
The girl's eyes widened. She could not help but be shaken, and she felt a great sense of defeat.
"No," Brando quickly shook his head. At least Vahina did a good job in this matter, and he did not want to hurt her confidence. "You've already determined the range. It's not like I can't sense the fluctuation of mana. You know … I'm only a little knowledgeable in legends and myths."
"Really?"
"Of course, I'm an Elementalist after all."
"How can there be a Gold-ranked Elementalist in swordsmanship?" Vahina pursed her lips in disbelief. "Master Von Kain always said that we humans have limited lives. If we don't put all our energy into one thing, I'm afraid that we won't be able to achieve anything."
"That's not necessarily true," Brando shook his head. "Did you forget that I used magic when I took that thing back from you in the Green Tower?"
"You still have the nerve to bring that up! Taking something from a girl? You're such a disrespectful fellow! " Vahina could not help but get angry at the mention of what happened in the Green Tower. She snorted: "I thought you were a fake noble, a country bumpkin. I didn't expect you to be the real deal."
She snorted: "Erouine's people are really rude."
Brando wiped the sweat off his forehead. [I'm really a fake noble.] But he did not agree with Vahina's words. Even though it was wrong to snatch something from a girl, he did not do it for the sake of snatching it. He did it purely to teach a certain someone a lesson for being so self-centered.
Anyone would be angry if their item was snatched away while they were bargaining with a merchant, let alone someone who did not follow the rules. Of course, the Stone Key was still useful to him.
"That's a different matter. I don't want to discuss who was right and who was wrong with what happened." Brando was in a good mood. He brought Sifrid and Vahina out of the plaza. Andesha was still staring at the forest and occasionally glancing at the World Tree, but she did not notice the three people walking through the plaza.
On the other hand, the man in the red robe standing on the other side of the ruins didn't notice the presence of the three of them either. Brando felt that the man's figure was somewhat familiar, but he could not see his face clearly at such a distance.
But unexpectedly, Vahina spoke up. "Eh? That person looks familiar."
"Familiar?" Brando was surprised. He had 'interacted' with many high-ranking Tree Herders in the game, and it was reasonable for him to recognize one of them or hear their voice. But why would a girl from a high-ranking family find a heretic 'familiar'?
"Ah, I think it's that Amman from Bras. I've met him many times with my father when he was still the Bishop of Floral Ridge," Vahina replied: "But why is he here?"
"Amman?"
Brando almost blurted out 'How is that possible'. He had met Amman before, but he was pushed into the mouth of the Mistborn and died a few hours ago (in Brando's opinion). He saw with his own eyes that the man's heart was pierced, and as far as he knew, no one could survive a pierced heart apart from the Golden Folk. Even angels could not resurrect them.
But with Vahina's reminder, the more he looked at the man, the more he found him to be Amman. Although he could not see clearly from this distance, he was not too far off.
In fact, he had felt that something was off from the start, but he did not think too much about it.
"Is it really Amman?" Brando could not help but ask: "Are you sure?"
"You speak so strangely. How can I be sure? I can't see anything from this distance. I just thought it was a casual remark, why are you so serious about it? " Vahina grumbled. "But for a great cleric to walk together with a heretic from Tree Herders, what a shocking secret!"
She licked her lips as if she was a little agitated.
"If it really is him," Brando said in his heart, "then it's not as simple as a secret." Resurrecting the dead, especially when the heart was heavily injured, was absolutely impossible with normal methods. The only way was sorcery. To be honest, Brando did not expect Amman to be related to sorcery.
That guy was actually a spy?
He took a deep breath. He didn't know what he was thinking, but his mind seemed to be filled with all kinds of information. A great cleric of the Holy Cathedral of Fire was actually a Tree Herder. This news was too shocking. What surprised him even more was that there was no news about it in the game back then.
He thought that NPCs did not have any secrets in front of the players.
But just as Brando's thoughts were running wild, a voice suddenly came from behind: "Who's there, hiding your head and showing your tail? Come out!"
The voice was slightly hoarse, but the tone was so cold that it sent chills down one's spine. Brando almost jumped when he heard the voice because it did not belong to anyone else.
It was Andesha.
How was it possible that they were discovered?
Brando and Vahina were so scared that they froze on the spot. They looked at each other and saw the shock on each other's pale faces.
