Chapter 3019: Flowing Light and Running Thunder
The coroner's description of "transformed into light", "stone body" and "limited fighting time" gave the outsider a sense of déjà vu:
"Can you last about three minutes in a fight?"
"It will take longer, depending on the effort during the battle and the weather at the time. Theoretically, the stronger the light around me, the longer I can maintain this state, whether it is sunlight, moonlight or other types of light.
But the current situation outside is the worst combat environment for me. If I fight at full strength, I can only last about five minutes."
Mr. Ptolemy Albert admitted, but in Shade's opinion, it is better to have it than to have it. The role that the chosen one holding the artifact can play is definitely much stronger than just borrowing a artifact.
So Shade briefly described the current situation in Vista Forest again, and emphasized the decisive battle tomorrow night:
"Mr. Albert, since the time you can fight at full strength is short, why not save your strength for the most critical moment?"
Shade explained his thoughts:
"Tomorrow the city will be guarded by the church and the chosen ones of the earth. I and the candidates of time I support will deal with other troubles. When we need to face the ancients in the forest, you will appear again to help us."
The coroner nodded and agreed:
"No problem, you can just call me when the time comes. I don't need to go to Vista Glade right now. When you need me, I can turn into light and fly to your side. Tomorrow evening after I get off work, I will fly directly to Vista Glade and wait. I will come to your side when you need me, but this is not space movement, so there will be a delay of several seconds to more than ten seconds."
As he spoke, he took Shade from the autopsy room to his office, and then handed Shade the [Blood Sorrow] that was hanging on the wall. Now it is not only the holy sword of the vampires, but also a divine weapon that symbolizes the identity of the Chosen One of Light:
"Pour light into it, throw it up into the sky, and I'll be able to sense you. Of course, this requires you to be outside.
In addition to being used to summon me, injecting light into it and using it as a weapon can also allow this artifact to have the function of tearing through time. The rushing light and the thunder that cuts through the sky are both symbols of the passage of time. This sword forged by the Dragon God can tear through time and space."
Besides this, Mr. Albert gave Shad something else, which he had prepared in advance for Shad's invitation.
They were a short knife with a glowing blade, a stone tabletop ornament with a giant dragon coiled on an egg that looked very similar to the "Dragon Altar", and eight bottles of blood-red potions:
"That short sword is a divine item I made myself, the 'Blessed Blade'. Any object that touches it will gain the effect of the 'Blessed Blade' that lasts for two hours. In addition to the weapon itself glowing, it can also cause radiant damage to the enemy when used, and has a deeper damage effect on undead and demons. At the same time, it can make the weapon itself immune to the defensive effect of the unstable time fog you mentioned to a certain extent.
Theoretically, it can attach such special effects to an unlimited number of weapons, but unfortunately its own effectiveness period is only three days. Yes, this is the ritual dagger I made by imitating the power of that artifact."
The surface of the short knife has been finely polished to present a mirror-like luster. The sides of the blade are engraved with complex dragon patterns, and the patterns are like spreading ivy, symbolizing the prosperity of life. These patterns seem to be hand-etched and plated with a thin layer of gold, which makes it glow slightly golden in the light.
"As for the stone ornament, it is also a divine item. I originally thought that if the decisive battle took place in the middle of the night, it could still have some effect. Now it seems that my advance preparation was a good idea.
The divine item 'Prayer Light', after activation, can provide a small light source for the city by placing it high above the city. This item needs the assistance of a ritual to cover the entire city. I know that the Church of Dawn also has this kind of divine item that can provide large-scale lighting, but mine can provide vitality recovery and detect invisibility within the light range. "
These two top-notch divine magic items were made after Mr. Albert became the Chosen One. They can provide a very powerful auxiliary effect when carried by someone, and are even more useful in large-scale battles.
Ptolemy Albert could not participate in the battle for a long time, so he provided these two excellent auxiliary items to play their roles. As for the eight bottles of blood-red potions, they were supplies he gave to Shade alone.
However, these potions are not only related to his identity as the chosen one of "light", but also special potions that he prepared by combining the potion formulas in the classics of the blood-sucking clan and the knowledge of ancient dragons:
"Dragon Transfiguration Potion. The simple effect is that after drinking it, you can temporarily transform into a dragon. You know there is a potion called Cat in a Bottle, right? They are both potions that can transform people who have no talent for Transfiguration."
The coroner warned Shade as he examined the potions:
"But be careful. The person who drinks this potion had better have a strength of five rings or above. Otherwise, after the transformation effect ends, it may cause permanent and irreversible damage to oneself. And it must not be given to ordinary people. You don't want to know what will happen."
The storage conditions of the [Dragon Transformation Potion] were extremely harsh, and it had to be kept at an environment above 70 degrees to ensure that it would not deteriorate. So Mr. Albert put them in a thermos and gave it to Shade, and told Shade not to drink the deteriorated potion.
The excellence of the [Dragon Transformation Potion] does not lie in its ability to provide a one-time transformation. After all, if the church really wants dragons, there are plenty of dragons on Dragon Island.
The real power of this potion is that the damage suffered by the transformed form after drinking the potion will not be fed back to the main body. Therefore, when the effect of the potion disappears, the drinker will return to the state before drinking, which is equivalent to providing an invincible effect for a period of time.
Although this magic potion is of little significance to Shade, after all, with his recovery ability, he can basically recover after a few breaths as long as he is not killed by one blow, but it is of great help to the girls around him.
Later, this [Dragon Transformation Potion] will also become a sellable item in Mr. Albert's store list, and Shade can order it at any time. However, the production of the potion takes time, so this potion will be limited in purchase in the future.
Anyway, Shad did some shopping at Mr. Albert's place, then chatted with the coroner about the changes in Moon Bay City in recent months, and then set off back to Vista Woodlands.
He just caught up with the lunch on the ship, or rather, everyone was waiting for him to come back. Everyone came to the restaurant and sat down. The maids pushed the dining cart to serve everyone. Before the meal, Xia De briefly explained what he had gained in the morning.
Everyone was very happy to hear that they could get powerful helpers to support them. Seeing that Miss Orlanod didn't know much about the other chosen ones, Miss Danister, who was sitting next to her, gave a brief description. Then the Ancient Moon Witch raised her own question:
"It seems that those formally chosen ones are all very powerful, the fire-wielding nun, the clustered souls that protect the earth, the blood-sucking species that embrace light and justice, and the four-in-one butterfly of Shade. I don't know if it's my illusion, but Emilia and the Miss Iluna Beias that you always mention don't seem to be as powerful as them."
"This Iluna's situation is different from theirs."
Luvia explained that Shade didn't really understand this either. After all, except for Iluna, the other chosen ones, even if they were not the Thirteenth Ring, could basically defeat the Thirteenth Ring head-on. The reason Luvia gave was:
"Although Iluna was the first to complete the ritual, her growth and transformation are not over yet. Although she is weak at this time, she has the strongest potential."
As usual, Ajelina sat next to Grace and Helen, and somehow thought of the phrase "If a person is weak, praise him for his potential." She kept a straight face and tried not to change her expression. In fact, the little princess didn't understand what Luvia wanted to say.
During lunch, not only did Xia De share the news, but the two fortune-tellers also told Xia De about the news about the starry sky above his head:
"The stars above our heads are still changing, so it is not that time in the entire material world has stopped flowing. Time is still flowing forward, and the day when the silver moon shines is still tomorrow."
Luvia said, and Shade was a little puzzled:
"If time is not stagnant, then why doesn't the sun rise? Could it be that this is not an anomaly of time, but an anomaly of the moon? It can't be an anomaly of the sun, right?"
"Meow~"
The cat called gently, hoping that Shade would eat first before thinking about these things.
Bella explained:
"The reasons are very complicated, but it is indeed a time anomaly. Simply put, there is a mismatch between the time in the sky above our heads and the time on the ground, and this time mismatch is changing dynamically. The specific details of this cannot be written into a book. Now you just need to know that the moon phases every night are still normal and will not change because of the polar night."
"Then can we determine when this phenomenon will end? It can't go on forever, right?"
Carina, who was sitting next to Luvia, asked them, but the fortune-tellers could not give a definite answer:
"We need to continue observing this. We can only confirm that this abnormal phenomenon is definitely not permanent. After all, the stability of the material world is not that bad. However, at least don't expect to see the sun during the day today and tomorrow. The night will not retreat until at least Sunday. It's winter now. I hope the gas supply in the city can still hold up."
