This human alchemist, whose aura was weaker than that of the young Frostborn just now, why did he suddenly become so powerful when he turned around...
Realizing that this human with an evil aura was undergoing some dangerous refinement, Soul Eater immediately completely abandoned the human woman who was still insulting and provoking him, and focused all his attention on him.
Its three layers of eye masks are all closed. This means that it will completely give up its vision and only rely on perception to target the only locked enemy... Only in this way can it sneak into the realm of silence at any time.
——The refinement must be interrupted.
This is a taboo refinement that only "sages" can complete.
But wasn't he just an "apprentice"? Not even a "master"...
Soul Eater's mind is filled with questions.
It had not been summoned for hundreds of years, and it discovered that it no longer recognized the material world at all...
In the world of Soul Eaters, there is no such thing as "taking drugs".
But it recognizes the alchemy technique.
Forbidden Refining - Sun Crown Purification.
Use a piece of matter in the real world to replace a small part of the sun's essence - or only complete half of it and send someone to the interior of the sun.
It didn't want to take the blow head on.
As a summoned object, it is indeed immortal. This is just its fake body, just like a "puppet stone statue".
But it does feel pain.
If I were banished to the sun...
The Soul Eater shook his head like a drill uneasily, and disappeared in an instant, avoiding the clumps of steel guns flying towards him, and moved further away from here - at least where the flames could not be sprayed.
s position.
To be honest, it kind of wants to run away.
Especially this time, he was not summoned by followers of Lady Silence.
Instead, it was summoned by a pagan who stole the spell from somewhere and added a bunch of strange restrictions... It seemed unwilling.
It doesn’t matter if my boss asks me to work overtime.
But you are just the boss of another company who knows my boss... It's okay to help me casually, why do you ask me to work overtime?
Unlike hunters who look almost fully evolved, Soul Eaters are relatively good-tempered summons and are much timid than they look. If they are not summoned by followers of Lady Silence, they will be killed if they encounter a strong enemy.
May run away from a fight.
the reason is simple.
Because this thing lives in groups.
But it is almost the natural enemy of all extraordinary beings with mana pools... They feed on the souls with mana pools.
They can see the soul, and can unconditionally feel the specific location of the caster, as well as the intensity of the spell being chanted, and obtain the characteristics of the spell. It also has a powerful and tough body, and an extremely fast and powerful charge - Soul Eater
Therefore, it is metaphorically called the "Spear of Silence" in the ceremony.
At the same time, it can travel freely between the realm of silence and the real world, seemingly teleporting.
Therefore, among high-level summons, their group is relatively popular.
Extraordinary beings like alchemists who are extremely fragile and slow can only make Soul Eaters slightly afraid when they reach the level of sages.
But it is still obviously hesitant.
It was crawling around far away from a few people, and the mist evaporating from its body dissipated in the blink of an eye. This made it look like a group of marshmallow lizards in action.
Annan also saw its fear.
He knows why.
——It is the deterrence created by taboos.
Taboo refinement refers to the transformation along a specific route with extremely fast frequency - one cycle per sentence - using existing rule exceptions and borrowing from others or even "other gods" at a very low cost that would have been impossible.
The truth already held is not equivalent to the art of refinement.
Its essence is to take advantage of loopholes in the rules and steal the authority of truth. If discovered by the parties concerned, they may follow the clues and find them.
That’s why it’s called “Forbidden Alchemy”. The profession of “Sage” after ancient alchemists reached the golden level was also called “Fire Stealer”.
But if it is not discovered... after the transformed wizard reaches the gold level, he will become the only wizard who can stably transcend levels and use the power of the truth level.
Although if you are discovered, you may have to pay a heavy price afterwards. But at least it can be emergency...
The power of the truth level, even if it is just a tiny bit stolen, has absolute suppressive power against enemies of the gold level and below. Just like the power of elements is completely invulnerable to those below the silver level.
...Senior, there is something about this.
Salvatore did tell Annan about the taboo refinement.
However, he did not tell Annan that he had mastered at least one forbidden spell...
You are not a gold level person.
Why do you want to know this?
And what the hell is that slimy thing crawling out of the senior’s body?
How can he cast spells and curse at others? He seems to be able to cast spells more efficiently than the seniors.
...Mo, could it be venom?
And what is that evil mimic creature with an ominous aura?
However, the Soul Eater refused to leave - apparently he was gradually doubting Salvatore's strength.
Although this Soul Eater doesn't know what taking drugs is, it doesn't believe that Salvatore's power can last forever.
Otherwise, if the "sage" wants to target it, there is no need to refine it with taboos... he can easily subdue it.
On the one hand it's because of this suspicion, but on the other hand... it's because this Soul Eater is a little greedy.
It's young - by Soul Eater standards.
Because it smelled that there was indeed a delicious soul nearby, and it was very fragrant. It was also large in quantity, but it was not sure of the specific location and had to look for it again.
And the soul of the Frostborn is also delicious and fragrant. I want to eat it.
Those two human souls were very dry and did not want to be eaten.
The soul of that weird alchemist who suddenly became a "sage"... seems to be a bit smelly.
Both fragrant and smelly.
In the end, it couldn't bear its appetite.
It moved left and right, escaped into the realm of silence the moment it entered a blind corner of a building, and instantly appeared in the direction behind Annan and the others.
Without any warning or force, it struck like a cannonball without any warning, trying to penetrate Salvatore directly!
But at this moment, an invisible wall of air rose behind Salvatore.
——Annan had already anticipated its attack method.
Because it seems to habitually like to attack from behind.
When the Soul Eater hesitated, Annan had already taken the bottle of breath, put the hammer at his feet, and clasped his hands together like a prayer.
Then use Salvatore as a bait, always watch his back, and intercept the most threatening "Spear of Silence" as soon as possible!
The speed of the Soul Eater, which was approaching at high speed, was greatly reduced the moment it passed this wall. Although it was a living creature, its effect was greatly reduced, but after passing this wall, Annan canceled the previous wall in the blink of an eye, and then moved on to it.
Another wall has been erected in front of me!
Four consecutive millisecond-accurate seconds of release and seconds of cancellation reduced the Soul Eater's charging speed to that of a motorcycle that had just started.
That's exactly Annan's guidance spell, the Stall Wall!
While Annan quickly released the wall of speed, a frost-colored aura spread rapidly on the ground, completely freezing the Soul Eater's body.
The elf leather gloves that had already begun to adhere to Annan's skin came into play for the first time, allowing Annan to use two guidance spells at the same time, controlling the Soul Eater's actions in time!
At this moment, dozens of steel spears filled with lightning came from the sky with terrifying power.
Shadow had already anticipated Annan's actions, and believed that Annan could control its actions... so he kept his spear hanging in the air, ready to go——
The steel spears, densely packed like a punishment from heaven, fell to the ground, nailing the Soul Eater to the ground, severely injuring him, and bursting out a beam of flames - and then at the moment the flames rose, they immediately crystallized and then became tempered.
The Soul Eater was joined by Annan and Shadow, and was instantly sealed inside a solid steel column with a radius of about five meters!
