Among the six elements, light and darkness were the most special. The element of light was gentle and peaceful. It had the power to nourish life, but it could also cause harm to all negative energy. It was called purification. Warlocks who could control the element of light were called priests. In Wohnde, priests and priests only practiced holy words and light spells.
On the other hand, the dark element was the exact opposite. The dark element was extremely corrosive. It only attacked living beings, but in turn, it could strengthen negative creatures like the undead and demons.
Wohnde Player's Handbook
※ ※ ※
The silver cover of Mavekart's Grimoire glowed with an indescribable gloomy light. Amman's palms were devoid of vitality as he placed them on the pages. His fingers were shriveled, and he quickly aged. However, he did not seem to notice it as he laughed maniacally: "Andesha, Veronica, you're just like a mantis trying to stop a chariot … … Hahaha … … What a joke, what a joke!"
However, he soon couldn't laugh anymore.
The laughter stopped abruptly.
Amman looked at the arrow that pierced through the layers of black light and headed straight for him like a meteor from outer space. "This is impossible!" His arrogant laughter turned into a sharp cry. He wanted to pull away, but he was firmly stuck to the page. With a muffled sound, the wolf fang arrow pierced through his chest.
"Ah —!"
"Ah? He's actually still alive! " Brando was equally shocked. He had no experience dealing with the Book of Mavicaert. It was said that this book had always been in the Creation Temple, and had never been touched by anyone before the War of the Slate Slabs. However, Brando was very familiar with the spell 'Dark Shockwave'. Based on Wohnde's basic rules, the dark element would only affect living creatures, or in other words, it would burn and erode the life force itself. Therefore, he was not surprised that his arrow could penetrate the waves and hit the target.
The arrow itself was a lifeless object.
But Amman didn't die. Martha above, he was a weak Priestess! Moreover, this was already the second arrow. If this happened in the game, Brando would probably think that he had encountered some kind of bug. In fact, he was already thinking that he had encountered some kind of bug.
Not only did Amman not die, but he also pressed on the wound with one hand and screamed in horror, "Ah, ah, ah — my magic … ah! The Book of Mavicaert, ahhhh, you're all dead! " As soon as he finished speaking, the layers of black shockwaves in the square began to tremble. With a boom, they exploded into countless dark specks of light that scattered in all directions.
The square fell silent all of a sudden, leaving only a faint layer of twilight clouds. The clouds made the air carry a fishy smell.
The spell was disrupted.
The mist dispersed little by little, leaving Amman standing behind, panting heavily. He was taller than the average Cruz, so he looked more like a thin shadow. Amman's face was pale, and his mouth was full of blood. He stared at Brando with eyes full of hatred, as if his parents had died. It almost made Brando wonder if he owed him hundreds of thousands of Tor.
But he quickly came to his senses.
Veronica could not help but open her mouth slightly.
They saw a hole in the silver-black cover of the Book of Mavicaert in Amman's hand. Brando stared at the hole in shock. He, he, he, he actually punched a hole in the book!? Brendel almost rubbed his eyes in disbelief. Mother Marsha above, that was an ancient evil artifact, an existence equivalent to a demigod artifact. How did he manage to make a hole in it?
Amman's lips trembled, and it took him some effort to squeeze out a sentence. "You … are all dead." His voice was almost distorted due to anger.
At this time, Brando suddenly reacted. He immediately exclaimed in surprise. "I got it, the Book of Mavicaert is a fake!"
Amman and Veronica's expressions changed at the same time, but the difference was that one was frightened, and the other was confused.
"A fake?"
"No, it should be a projection of the original. It's just a record of the power of the ancient evil item. It's a fake!" Brando immediately explained to Veronica. "Although it has the same level of power, it doesn't have as strong a defense as the ancient evil item —"
"Enough!" Amman hurriedly screamed and interrupted Brando. Although his sweat glands had almost degenerated after becoming an undead, he still could not help but feel cold sweat dripping down his face. Amman never dreamed that there would be a sacred item that was so familiar with All for One here. And this person was neither Veronica nor Greysword Saint-mephistopheles, but an unknown young man.
The Book of Mavicaert had not appeared for nearly ten thousand years!
"Although it's just a projection, its power is enough to destroy you insects." Amman's expression was uncertain. "As long as I cast another spell …"
"Oh," Veronica finally understood. She looked back at Amman, her emerald eyes full of a dangerous glint. The Cruz Goddess of War sneered. "Do you think I'll give you a chance to cast a spell, Amman?"
Veronica attacked at the same time. She was no match for Andesha at her peak, and she could not suppress the power of the Book of Mavicaert. But whether it was the Twelve Patriarchs of the Tree Herders or the sacred item from prehistoric records, they were all existences above mortals. Andesha was said to have experienced the War of the Holy Saints and was a monster that had lived for thousands of years. The Book of Mavicaert was an evil item born in the Sea of Chaos. But even so, Veronica was still a genius among mortals, the Goddess of War of the Cruz Race. She had achieved so much in less than a hundred and fifty years of age. Her sword was full of the amazing talent of the human race.
It was full of pride and arrogance. The sword was like a full moon, and the sky blue sword was like a verdant sword.
Amman's face turned pale.
"Ahhhh, no!" His pale face was distorted. His eyes were filled with unwillingness, regret, and madness. His hands were like the claws of a bird as he hugged the Book of Mavicaert tightly. He did not want to let go, as if hugging the book could save his life. He screamed: "No, you bastards … I won't let you have it easy … Even if I die …"
Amman growled like a wild beast. His withered fingers clasped tightly on the silver-black title page. Suddenly, a dazzling black light shot out. The black light expanded and formed an area where even light could not escape. It was pure black without any impurities. It was as if it wanted to suck in people's minds.
[Black Hole of Annihilation]! Brando was alarmed. The Book of Mavicaert was said to have the ability to devour everything and turn it into its own power. But this was too exaggerated. It was as if there was an invisible gravitational force between heaven and earth, gathering everything to one point. He looked down and was shocked to see a layer of light floating on the Halran Gaia in his hand. But when he took a closer look, it was not a layer of light, but a layer of translucent lines. These complex lines were the magic circles engraved on the sword. The powerful gravitational force generated by the Book of Mavicaert pulled these things out of the Halran Gaia.
Brando could not help but curse in his heart. The Book of Mavicaert was absorbing the power of the law. This was too scary. Once these magic circles were broken down, the Halran Gaia would be no different from a blank longsword. At most, it would be slightly longer and wider, like a heavy sword.
However, when the black hole appeared, the first one to suffer was Amman. He obviously did not have the ability to control this spell. With a sharp scream, his whole body was pulled into the black hole.
Then came the closer. Veronica could no longer retract her sword. The Azure Firmament trembled and flickered for a moment or two. The dark green blade dimmed and turned into an ordinary weapon. The Azure Firmament was a wind elemental holy sword. It was a fantasy weapon like the Halran Gaia, but it was completely destroyed in a moment. For a moment, Brando and Veronica's expressions changed.
"The power of the Book of Mavicaert is to devour everything! Destroy the projection of the book! "Brando shouted immediately.
Veronica, of course, was aware of this. She sent out several green sword auras, but unfortunately, the wind elemental sword auras collapsed as they approached the edge of the black hole. Moreover, the black hole absorbed the sword auras and expanded. The huge suction force made Brando feel that he could not stand still.
"Get out of the way!" A hoarse voice interrupted coldly. "Trash!"
Andesha's voice came from the direction of the forest. The Patriarch of the Tree Herders was still alive. She struggled to walk out of the forest, her body covered in wounds and blood. Even the tree bark that covered her body was cracked. Her ample bosom stood proudly in the air. But Andesha was not a human, and she did not care. Instead, she raised her hand and sent a green light towards the black hole.
"No, wait!" Brando's expression changed. He wanted to stop her, but it was too late.
The green light disappeared as soon as it entered the black hole. Andesha immediately screamed: "How is this possible?! This thing is devouring the power of elements! Ah, what the hell is this?! " She looked as if she had seen a ghost, but Brando could not help but curse in his heart. Even though the power of elements was the highest law in Wohnde, there were still differences between the different elements.
If he remembered correctly, the Book of Mavicaert represented the purest form of chaos. It could devour and contain everything. A mere Secondary Time could not affect its laws in the slightest.
Brando was depressed because the black hole had expanded even further after absorbing Andesha's power. This time, even Veronica could not withstand the force of the black hole, let alone him. He was sent flying towards the center of the black hole.
"Fuck! That brainless woman! " Seeing this scene, he almost fainted from anger. But of course, Brendel would not accept his fate, or rather, it was as if he had expected this. At the last moment, he gritted his teeth and raised Halran Gaia with both hands, and stabbed it into the black hole.
"Ah!"
"Brando!"
"Brother Brando!"
"My Lord!" After the black hole was formed, the fog in the square was swept away like a tornado. Scarlett and the others saw this scene from afar. Brendel flew into the air, his whole body turned into a sword and pierced into the center of the darkness. The Halran Gaia's blade emitted a bright white light, as if it was under great pressure. The girls could not help but let out a cry of surprise.
However, it was at this moment that a crisp sound like glass shattering resounded in the square. Under everyone's gaze, the first to shatter was actually the Annihilation Black Hole.
Everyone was stunned.
