Following my command, a certain black cat began to change its shape, and the metal slime transformed its body according to the expected template.
A few seconds later, a jet-black two-handed sword appeared in front of me. It was an unusually simple military-made weapon. It had no gorgeous carvings or decorations. It was as simple as an inferior product that the city guards were holding.
It was full of wounds, as if it could be broken at any time, but it exuded an inexplicable murderous aura, like a veteran returning from hundreds of battles, which was intimidating.

[Artificial Demonic Sword: This sword is the incarnation of the familiar Heloise. Although she feels no pain and is not afraid of breaking in this state, you still should not use it against weapons of higher quality. There are also pairs of weapons.
She is slightly better, otherwise she would suddenly disintegrate during the attack...]
[Elemental Mastery (Beginner Level): Increases the magic damage of each system by 25%, and the blade is attached with 5 points of designated elemental damage (current attribute is ice)]
I have found the pale sword of justice, but for some reason I cannot retrieve it for the time being. The current one is a replica copied by Heloise compared to the original one. The only special effect is attached to Heloise’s soul.
The magic amplification effect is more like a magic wand than a magic sword. It is also the top rare item that amplifies all magic spells and effects.
To be honest, this imitation is simply an insult to Heloise's status as the Banshee Queen, but with the addition of the [Pale Soul Gem of Justice], it is completely different.
As the soul gem was embedded, pale holy light flashed across the entire sword body, and the dark magic sword transformed into a silver holy sword.

[High Holy Flame: Adds 20 points of silver flame damage to chaotic creatures, and 5 points of silver flame damage to ordinary life]
[High-level courage: immune to fear magic below level nine, innate abilities, the user is always in a state of high morale]
[Advanced protection against evil; the damage caused by chaotic creatures to the user is reduced by 10 points]
Holy flame, courage, and protection from evil. These are the attributes attached to a typical holy sword. They are also effects attached to the holy soul of the Paladin of Kane. They may not be very effective against ordinary people. The upper limit of damage has just reached Roland's holy sword.
The lower limit, but if it is against chaotic creatures such as demons and undead, it will be at least as good as a legendary magic weapon.
Of course, in addition to the natural creatures of chaos, just like the sinners judged by the spell: Conviction, the users of chaos power found by the Paladin's detection of evil will also be regarded as chaos creatures by the Holy Sword.
These include elemental mages who were very unjustly accused, demon warlocks who were somewhat unjustly accused, necromancers and warlocks who were not at all unjustly accused, witches, witches... For a long time in history, the Archmage and the Church of the Gods have been in a relationship.
In a state of open and covert struggle, hunting wizards and witches have been going on for hundreds of years. Paladins who can turn their will into resistance to magic have high natural magic resistance. There are also special advancements like mage killers. It is understandable that the relationship with the mage is not good.
.
At this moment, I couldn't help but feel grateful that this sword had a deep hatred for chaotic creatures. As soon as I stepped into the hall of the Royal Astrology Observatory, the mages started to focus their fire on Diana and I who were at the front without hesitation.
Since we want to attack the Astrology Tower, which is dominated by legal professions, we naturally use the Paladin as our human shield.
For mages, when encountering a paladin with high magic resistance but short legs, the first step in conventional tactics is to keep a distance and then summon cannon fodder. When the cannon fodder blocks the opponent, then use gorgeous spells to kill him.
As for the more conventional remote control and kite bombing tactics, due to the Paladin's high magic resistance, it is easy to be sniped after resistance, so it is no longer very popular.
I was already familiar with this routine, but I charged forward without hesitation despite the obstacles of countless cannon fodder.
The reason? The most common types of cannon fodder summoned by mages are naturally alien creatures, undead from the plane of death, elemental creatures from the elemental plane, and low-level demons and demons from the lower plane. No matter what kind, they are the darlings of Chaos.
"Detect evil!" "Detect evil!"
The two paladins used Detect Evil at the same time. Under the large-scale magic, the mages were enveloped in a large area of red light representing chaos. The undead, demons, and elemental creatures in front of them also turned red in large areas.
Titan Body's 5 points of total damage immunity, Advanced Protection from Evil's 10 points of total damage immunity, coupled with the excellent physical protection of the heavy armor, make me an extremely good tank when facing chaotic creatures, and most of the time
, the Paladin, who has excellent magic and physical resistance but low attack and short legs, has the first task in the team to be a good human shield.
"Destroy evil!"
After ignoring the attack of cannon fodder, the distance from the mage was actually not far. After the strike, the mage who had just summoned two medium-sized skeleton shooters was chopped down, and the first one was decapitated without even humming.
Taken by me.
The fall of my companion made the remaining mages throw the first wave of attack spells at me without hesitation. For a moment, fireballs and ice arrows flew randomly, acid arrows and searing rays connected together, and the torrent of arcane missiles was like
It flows down like a long river.
But that slender figure stood in front of me. No matter how colorful and dangerous the magic was, she blocked it all without saying a word.
"do you died?"
When the mist of ice and the smoke of the fire dissipated, the brown-skinned elf knight was shockingly unscathed and had already rushed to the stairs to the second floor, and there were even magic spells lying along the way.
Profession.
"Fortunately, the paladins of the dark elves are from the Sulfur Mountain group, otherwise they would be too bullying of the legal profession."
Before the fall, the dark elves were once the high-ranking noble elves of the great elf kingdom. The light elves were at least of bronze bloodline. However, their own attributes were not much better than those of humans who were almost blank slates. As important indicators of the warrior system, strength and
They are even slightly inferior in physical strength, but no one dares to say that they are not worthy of being called a bronze race. The reason is their racial talent.
Anti-magic skin is a racial talent common to all dark elves. It is actually extremely powerful. It will reduce magic effects and damage according to the owner's level. This reduction effect is extremely powerful, even for druids.
, the effects of spells such as witches and warlocks are greatly reduced (including holy light). The only thing that cannot be reduced is the priest's magic with divine power.
This is why the first-class people in dark elf society are Lolth priests. In most cases, only low-status men choose to be employed as mages. Even martial arts masters, who are jokingly called barbarians among elves, have a higher status than archmages.
A mess of legendary paladin with high magic resistance + anti-magic skin + mostly wearing the holy sword Silver Avenger to protect against evil. When the hall on the first floor is mostly filled with low-level apprentices without high-level spells, this is equivalent to using eggs
Come to fight off the rampaging locomotive, I have already seen the outcome.
"Destroying evil."
The unpretentious swordsmanship is the same as one blow at a time, and the harvesting of heads is extremely stable. I also have to be careful to avoid the magic and the druid that transforms into a bear or werewolf. Diana has charged back and forth several times.
Judging from her stunned expression, she was also a little surprised by the vulnerability of the enemy. She was even startled when she first saw so many spellcasters.
In the past, when facing those mages who were defeated by him, his opponent's endless tricks and tricks also made all the dark elves suffer. It was a bit unreal to strike one or even two or three with this sword.
"Ahem, this is the surface of the earth. You can't expect every mage to be of the level of Lich Roland."
In human society, legends are at least one of the bosses. It is really shameful to bully a rookie with all your strength, but Diana, who grew up in the dungeon, does not have the so-called "dignity of the strong". Seeing so many spellcasters, she is afraid that she will be slow to start.
In order to be instantly killed by the opponent's big magic spell, he used all his strength to kill a dozen of them in one smooth move. As a result, the team that entered a few seconds late had no choice but to clean up the mess.
At this time, those cannon fodder summoned creatures happened to bump into the oncoming knights and gentlemen. The knights fought hard, and the gentlemen immediately started to kill everyone in an instant.
Whether it was the two giant wolves controlled by Bei Feng or Casio's bone bow, they all had gold-level explosive attack power. After sweeping through all the way, Corus was not prepared for the first large-scale lightning strike.
was emptied.
And they actually thoughtfully left behind a skeleton soldier that could fall apart at any time...
Looking at Renee who was being forced into a panic by the inferior skeleton soldiers, I shook my head helplessly. Let alone advancement, this is still far behind a qualified warrior, even with systematic plug-in improvement, experience and skills.
It can't be done in a day,
And with the police in full swing, I knew there was no time to waste on sighing.
"The same goes for the second floor. Diana and I will take the lead. Hurry up."
Judging from the newly obtained venue design drawings, the Astrology Tower only has three floors. The first floor is a hall for storing books, materials, daily necessities, and exhibits. The second floor is the living area for the staff, and the third floor is for various large-scale stargazing equipment.
And the opponents we are looking for, the higher-ups of the Astrology Tower, are probably on the second floor.
But this time, as soon as we got to the second floor, we ran into trouble.
The two huge steel golems used as decorations were directly activated, and the surrounding decorative armors and sculptures were all activated into living armored warriors. The spike traps and electric shock traps on the ground, after leaving the hall that ordinary people could enter, considered
With a notorious reputation that everyone wants to beat, Astrology Tower has built this place into its own fortress.
In fact, a steel golem was blocked by Diana, but this golem covered in fine steel is invulnerable and extremely powerful, so it is not something I can fight head-on now.
"There's nothing we can do, let's play our trump card. The Sword of Order!"
This racial talent is still too reluctant for me now. With the expenditure of a lot of physical strength and holy light, I felt like the world was spinning. But with a swipe of my finger, a golden lightning split the wall and hit the steel golem hard.
.
It was the crystallization of pure holy light. It turned into a substantial sword shape and chopped down. Its power was condensed to the point of being indestructible. The explosion of light that followed caused secondary damage again. It was the steel demon that could easily crush the golden melee professional.
Like, it also collapsed after swaying.
"Crack!" A big hole was opened on the back of the steel golem, and black smoke kept coming out. Diana over there looked at me in surprise. Even at the legendary level, she couldn't even deal with the demon.
Like, I was the first to take the lead even though I didn't reach the silver level, which surprised her very much.
But I shook my head. The man-made object like the golem is the favorite guard of the Mage Tower, but it is famous for its toughness. This steel golem is obviously a high-end product, so it is not that easy to deal with.
Although the injury was serious, judging from the gears still rotating behind the steel skin and the shining aura, it was still far from being destroyed.
But how could I give it a chance to stand up again.
I had already jumped on it, picked up another two-handed sword, inserted it into the body of the demon, and started stirring it back and forth.
Where did the sword come from? Summoned by the Sword of Order talent.
[Racial talent: Sword of Order, summons a weapon composed of the power of order, causing impact and explosion damage to the target. After that, the weapon will exist for 1 minute/summoning level. The quality of the weapon is determined by the caster's rank. ]
[Holy Light Crystal: Increases the Holy Light effect by 50%, increases the Holy Light recovery effect by 100%, and adds 10 points of Holy Flame damage to the blade]
[Intermediate protection against evil; the damage caused by chaotic creatures to the user is reduced by 6 points]
This racial talent that can only be used once a day can help me summon a Sword of Holy Light/Sword of Law. The quality is not bad, and at least the increase in Holy Light is very exciting, but unfortunately it can only last for more than 20 minutes.
Totally not enough.
With the injection of a large amount of holy light, the invasion of alien energy conflicted with its original energy system, causing the golem to tremble and tremble for a while before being destroyed.
And judging from the 200 destiny point reward that pops up directly, the absolute strength of this steel golem is obviously higher than mine.
The lack of explosive power has always been the weakness of the Paladin, and even though Diana over there had beaten the golem until it was bruised and smoking, she was still in a stalemate. With the arrival of Corus, after the continuous thunderstorm,
, the steel golem, which was weak to lightning strikes, finally collapsed.
But the trap that was activated next was a new trouble. I finally knew what our industry was missing. We obviously lacked a big thief. Do we have to resist these damn serial traps with our bodies?
In the end, we used summoned creatures to explore the way, and we passed the trap area. But the delay was a bit long. After we completed the cleaning of the second floor and reached the third floor, Lum, the president of the Oran Empire in the Astrology Tower,
The eye has disappeared into the dimensional gate.
The opponents on the second and third floors are a little more difficult, but they have reached the deep wilderness at this time. People with dual identities in the Astrology Tower are all in their other identities. The strongest people left behind are two gold-level mages. They are very important to our team.
There's no pressure at all.
When I cleaned up the battlefield and counted my opponent's losses, I found that the gains were better than expected.
"Another unlucky guy who failed at the dimensional gate and was embedded in the wall. This rookie mage only had a 1% failure rate in the dimensional gate. He actually saw more than a dozen high-level mages commit it in a row. It seems that the Astrology Tower was cursed by the God of Destiny.
The thing should be true."
At the same time, I, who should have been angry because my opponent escaped, was inexplicably surprised because of a piece of information I had just picked up.
"...For our lofty aspirations and to expand our influence in the Oran Empire, we decided to help and cooperate with the old emperor's fifth son Dasos to succeed to the throne, and in order to prevent him from crossing the river and burning the bridge.
, we have left evidence for his father-killing and brother-killing, that is... What is surprising is that Dasos did not kill his father. I don't think he will be soft-hearted, there must be some secret.
.... Sure enough, after helping Dasos attack the Solo Federation's envoy, we unexpectedly learned the ultimate secret of the Oran Empire. Perhaps, we can use this as a bargaining chip to ask him for more
.”
"Killing father and brother. This is really a heroic figure. Oh, this is exactly the information I want. Daxos, maybe we can have a good talk."
------------------
"Maybe it's time to have a serious talk."
Early the next morning, the news that the Royal Astrology Observatory was completely destroyed by fire spread throughout the city, and the royal spies quickly sent the intelligence information to Dasos' desk.
And Hemet, who was woken up from his sleep, immediately cheered up after hearing such exciting news.
"You don't want to force yourself anymore?"
"Since the spies were discovered, they immediately tracked them down and found the astrological station within two hours. Judging from the corpses found in the ruins, at least four legends were ruthless and had strong skills. Since others have shown enough
Strength, then, it’s okay to at least talk about it. And..."
"Um?"
"My people didn't find the body of the mysterious Astrology Tower President. Maybe he ran away."
"That's a bit troublesome. That guy knows a lot."
"Well, you don't need to be so stupid that we send him to our door to kill him and silence him. Let's just put him on a nationwide arrest warrant and get rid of the relationship."
"Aren't you afraid that he will reveal those things?"
"So what if it comes out? Will anyone believe it? Even if some people believe it, now that the late king only has one son left, me, do you still want me to abdicate?"
"Oh, by the way, did the old guy confess?"
"No, the old guy is still very stubborn. Why don't you try again today?"
After a while, when the flower pot on the window sill was removed, the exposed mechanism was opened, and the secret passage leading to the basement appeared from the wall.
"By the way, why not hold a large-scale ball in your name and invite all foreign guests and children of the great nobles to participate. This way it won't be conspicuous."
"Oh, I think you are planning to take advantage of the opportunity to hunt for beauty. Okay, let's make it next week..."
And when Dasos raised the lampstand and walked down the dark steps first, he didn't expect that a dark mouse also followed him.
"Haha, it seems that I came to the right place to look for food this time. If this secret is sold to that generous Luo Lan, how much can it be sold for?"
PS: I finally made it before midnight. It seems like there are still a few hundred words left of 10,000 words, but the plot is over. I’ll catch up tomorrow. By the way, I just missed two outbreaks and paid off one, but the result exceeded 500 votes and I owe another chapter.
, we are still two short of breaking out...but we will continue to ask for monthly votes. As long as everyone supports it, Squirrel will continue to work hard to break out.
