The card "Shadow Cloak" has four powerful effects: knockback, removal of negative status, invisibility, and blinding.
Seal, freeze, burn, bind, and petrify, these five negative states come from the most common restrictive negative states among the five attributes of light, water, fire, wind, and earth.
——Among them, "arrest", "shackles" and other legal spells used by legal experts all belong to [binding], while "silence" and "stillness" belong to [seal].
This card can only remove [Curse], a negative state mainly caused by dark magic, because shadow cannot dispel darkness. This is its biggest flaw.
But even so, it is the most useful fantasy card in the "Moon" card slot. Many cards produced by high-level fantasy cards may not be as useful as this one.
The "Moon" card originally has a very loose card slot. Basically, the fantasy cards that can be produced tend to be in the secondary fields of control, invisibility, detection, prophecy, madness, and illusion.
In this card slot, the "Shadow Cloak" brought by Shadow Demon is undoubtedly the most commonly used card - unless the BOSS has a special mechanism, or the equipment on his body is specialized in Shadow Demon, so he must bring Shadow Vault, otherwise Scholar of Sin
This one is always included by default.
Shadow Cloak can be effective in basically any situation.
Even in most cases, players are more troubled by the question of "Should I hand over the Cloak of Shadows now or keep another hand?" rather than "This card is of no use." Because the tactical value is too high, it is easy to judge the timing incorrectly.
Save yourself to the underworld.
However, in the current environment, Aiwass does not think that he can gain too strong control. His main enemy now is the Noble Red Society, which is mainly composed of Transcendence Path. And the dark attribute curse "Shadow Cloak"
It cannot be solved.
Its greatest significance lies in invisibility and the subsequent blinding curse.
The most common invisibility ability comes from adapting to the path. It is well known that adapting to the path does not cause curses - this means that those who try to sweep Aiwass out have no way of guarding against the blinding curse that follows after the invisibility is lifted.
Invisibility has time, but curses do not. If the curse is not broken or purified, it is permanent. Even if the curse is broken, it will still take time...enough for Aiwass or Lily to complete a sneak attack.
This world is relatively peaceful at present. Extraordinary people basically have no awareness of the need to fight. Extraordinary power is closer to a simple pursuit.
It's not like a player wandering around the streets equipped with control skills for various situations... Most extraordinary beings in this world don't have this kind of "prepared" tactical quality.
Their countermeasures generally only target the most common enemies in the surrounding environment - for example, here in Avalon, because the Dusk Road is very rare, basically no one will prepare anti-petrification countermeasures, and even many extraordinary people have reached the third level.
Level 4 people don’t even know that the characteristics of the Dusk Path are undeath and petrification; the Path of Love is even rarer, and it’s rare to see that you can’t buy steel mind potions-charm, fear, etc.
Madness, slumber, and madness all belong to the realm of the path of love.
Because of the characteristics of the Path of Love, these states imposed by the Path of Love are not negative states, and cannot be dispelled even by the illumination spell of the Path of Love. It is very difficult to fight against them without special countermeasures.
What surprised Aiwass was that after he cleaned up his room and even went out to have breakfast... Lily hadn't come to say hello yet.
——Did something happen to her? Did she faint because she ran out of inspiration while reading the tantra book?
Aiwass was a little worried, so he immediately pushed his wheelchair over.
"Lily, are you okay? Lily..."
As soon as he pushed open the door of Lily's room, he was startled - her room was filled with dense gray cobwebs.
But the spider webs seemed to be just an illusion... When Aiwass looked intently, they disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
"Master."
Lily's voice, which had become a little weak and tired, sounded softly, just like the voice of a person who has just woken up from a serious illness: "Do you want me to take a bath for you... Did I get up late? I'm sorry..."
Only then did Aiwass notice that Lily was standing quietly in the corner, wearing the glasses Aiwass gave her.
It was as if she had been standing there from the beginning, but I just didn't notice it at the first time.
It was precisely because of the authoritative path spell "Law: Do not look directly" attached to "Observer in the Shadow" that Aiwass did not notice her existence.
——There is no doubt that she has successfully embarked on the path of adaptation.
She walked over lightly, making no sound at all...like a moth or a spider.
"I just came to see if things are going well on your end and if you need my help."
Aiwass closed the door gently.
He glanced at it and found the gray tantra book lying quietly beside the pillow.
It has handed over the knowledge it stored to the reader. At this moment, it has temporarily lost its mysterious qualities and looks just like an ordinary book.
"What's its name?"
Aiwass asked. It seemed as if he was not asking about a book, but a pet.
"The Spider's Silk Tantra." Lily explained.
She briefly relayed the secrets described in the book to Aiwass - what is contained in this book is a special inheritance.
Different from "", what is stored in it is not a lost inheritance, but closer to a "summon", or how to use exotic weapons.
——Specifically, "spider silk".
"[Spider Silk] is a special kind of life created by Gray Tiansi. Its essence is a group of phantoms... not an individual, but a 'collective'. It has no body and no material entity.
Its carrier is 'lie'. It did not sign a contract with me, but completed 'symbiosis' with me... This is also a special way of existence adapted to the path."
"……lie?"
Aiwass does not understand the concept of symbiosis.
He just murmured in a low voice, thoughtfully: "As expected of Hui Tiansi's creation..."
Gray Tiansi is also one of the nine Tiansi who came in the first round. The field he controls is "lies" - things that are neither black nor white, words that are neither evil nor good.
And Lily also told Aiwass the most important secret in the Spider Silk Tantra without reservation.
"The snake's hair, the cat's footsteps, the moth's cage, the centipede's noose..."
Aiwass recited this metaphor and roughly guessed what it was: "Snakes have no hair, cats have no footsteps, moths have no cages, and centipedes cannot be hanged - these represent four things that do not exist. In reality,
Above, this should refer to the apostles of the Lord of Scale Feathers, and the eight realms of the Lord of Scale Feathers except for deception.
"Akpolis, the most powerful apostle of the Lord of Scales and Feathers, his metaphor is a snake. The snake represents both poison and medicine in adapting to the path.
"Cats represent camouflage and hunting, and 'hunters' who have adapted to the road worship cats; moths represent disappearance and change, and are symbols pursued by disguisers and assassins. Centipedes can adapt to various environments and escape from various
It is dangerous and crawls into various caves, so it is a symbol of prediction and refuge.
"In addition, the domain of the Lord of Scale Feathers also includes deception. This domain is very close to Hui Tiansi's lies. It is probably because of this reason that Gray Tiansi is hostile to the Lord of Scale Feathers..."
Of course, maybe that's not hostility.
——It is also possible that Hui Tiansi actually means "Boss, do you think you are missing an apostle, and I seem to be the right one?" This is quite adaptable.
Aiwass added in his heart.
"Spider Silk Tantra" tells sixty-seven secrets about "spider silk", which is a very complete inheritance. It includes [Weaving Lies], [Spider Silk Sense], [Spider Silk Sneaking], and [Silk Thread Control]
The four mysterious skills can already support a profession...but this inheritance was born before the emergence of professions, so Lily did not obtain her own extraordinary profession.
But on the other hand, she can also be said to be the founder of this profession. She can be called "Spider Walker" or "Spider Silk Messenger"...it's up to her.
At present, Lily can master three of the abilities after only one night.
One is to erase the sound of your own footsteps, which is "spider silk sneaking"; the other is to sense the "flying insects" that step into your capture range by opening the spider web. You can also create a tough and sharp silk thread as a weapon
.
This is the "spider silk" body embodied by Lily, which is composed of Lily's lies.
The stronger the lie, the tougher the thread will be; the sharper the lie, the sharper the thread will be... It cannot be quenched or enchanted, but at the same time it will not hurt yourself, and it will not be used.
It can be dissipated at any time.
She is still thinking about how to develop this ability.
The dense spider silk that Aiwass saw when he entered the door was not an illusion. Instead, Lily was constantly spinning and studying her newly acquired abilities. When Aiwass entered, she had almost figured out what the spider silk should be.
How to use it. As soon as she had a thought, the spider threads all over the room disappeared in an instant like an illusion.
She probably won't be able to become an assassin. But fortunately, she still has the ability to sneak... Then the rare equipment Aiwass prepared for her can still be used.
So Aiwass gave [Stalker in the Shadow] to Lily as a celebration of her successful entry into the extraordinary world.
Lily had seen this waist protector before - she noticed it when she helped Aiwass pack up the underwear left by Miss Assassin in his room, and even specially washed it under Aiwass's command.
.
But she didn't expect that this was actually the gift Aiwass said he would give to herself...
However, Lily accepted it solemnly and put it on immediately. After all, this was what Aiwass had emphasized - a very precious thing. And after putting it on, she immediately sensed her "spider silk sneaking" ability.
It became smoother.
Before, it was just a joke that Aiwass' wheelchair could drive itself.
But now that Lily is pushing the wheelchair behind Aiwass, it is really difficult to notice that there is someone behind Aiwass. If Lily had not spoken, ordinary people would not notice her existence at all.
With Lily's protection, Aiwass doesn't need to wear an asbestos collar even when he goes out to the Lloyd District. Even if someone is preparing to attack Aiwass, Lily can immediately sense the crisis - equivalent to an external hostility reminder
and a moving true eye that is invisible.
This real eye is even quite capable of hitting!
And there is a high probability that he can hit more than Aiwass without equipment... With two core purple equipment of this profession, Lily's now fully analyzed one-hit sneak attack may even pose a direct threat to Haina. And her perception range is comparable to
Haina is much more reliable.
Now the personal maid has become a personal bodyguard. Aiwass doesn't have to drag someone with him when he wants to go out.
And there is an advantage for him taking Lily out - if he encounters danger, he can use Shadow Demon. This is something he cannot do when going out with Sherlock or Haina.
Because Lily knows about the existence of Shadow Demon and will keep it a secret for Aiwass. As long as Aiwass can clean up the evidence.
Even if he is not a maid or bodyguard, he is undoubtedly very reliable just as a teammate.
With Lily's talent, she might be able to catch up with her first advancement ceremony...
So this time, Aiwass did not call Haina to protect him, but took Lily directly out.
They followed the address given by the old elf housekeeper and went to Bishop Mathers' home, which was also known as "Mrs. Mina's Divination Shop".
Sherlock is recuperating there now, and Aiwass, who has been in the newspaper, must also find a way to explain to Bishop Mathers why he can activate the holy sword sealed in the key...
A lie requires a hundred lies to cover up, and Bishop Mathers can also sense Aiwass' energy level on the path of devotion... He is now at the second energy level.
Therefore, Aiwass decided not to act. There was no need to hide his talent, or there was no use hiding it anyway. As soon as the holy sword, which required thirty-three mana points to be transformed, came out, Bishop Mathers understood everything.
.
So Aiwass decided to have a showdown first. Not only with Bishop Mathers, but also with Shylock.
"——Yes, I advanced directly that day and succeeded. And next month I will advance to the third level."
Aiwass plans to say so when the time comes.
In this way, Sherlock can probably guess who the "fox" is.
——If both Sherlock and Isabel know that they are the "fox", but at the same time they both think that the other party does not know...
So what kind of wonderful reaction will the two of them have during the advancement ceremony?
