Whoosh—
Struck by Aiven’s all-out attack with the [Coil Cannon], the ocean seed to have been perforated. A massive amount of seawater was blown away, shattered, and evaporated by the irresistible force, turning into an endless white mist rising into the sky.
The spear pierced an unknown depth beneath the water.
The enormous tunnel left along its path was instantly filled by the surrounding seawater, forming an imasurable gigantic vortex.
But a giant nearly three ters tall stood motionless in the whirlpool like a heavy cliff. His armor cracked, revealing skin with a blue-black tallic sheen, while shrouded by a blood-red Combat Qi fla.
Kungang Tita, who narrowly escaped death, opened his blood-colored eyes, exhaling a long, rusty breath.
His current appearance was sowhat frightening.
His left arm, along with most of his shoulder, had vanished into vapor, the upper part of his chest was breached, and even his internal organs were on the verge of exposure.
Yet, the overwhelming blood-red energy shrouding his body solidified into his flesh, preventing regrowth of the arm but keeping him from death.
Effortlessly pushing aside the water under his feet, he remained unaffected by the gigantic vortex.
Clapson, constantly monitoring the battle, being a priest of a True God, how could he lack augntative Divine Arts?
[Combat Faith]: With faith as the premise, it does not limit to faith in gods, but any belief worth fighting for. As long as faith endures, combat capability remains unaffected despite severe injuries.
Originally ant for the "Eternal Fla" Church’s Fire Bathed Knight Order, who, with firm belief in gods, can perform this miracle of ignoring bodily trauma.
Evidently, this Iron Wall Knight’s survival is surely due to so kind of belief, in no way inferior to those Fire Bathed Knights!
However, due to the persona gap between a Tier 2 priest and a Tier 3 Steel Knight, the Great Knight’s combat power couldn’t possibly be locked at one hundred percent.
At this mont.
The Steel Knight, retaining consciousness, donned a cold hard expression, harboring only one thought, this wizard... must not be left alive!
If the unknown "Witchcraft" had struck not him, but the "Steel Dragon" behind him,
There wouldn’t be a single survivor, including Tier 2 Dean Clapson, among the crew. If such witchcraft were deployed on another battlefield, it alone would be as fearso as the "Guard Commander" [Extraordinary Armant: Reverse Cross Halberd].
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Clutching the heavy sword in his solitary right hand, he stepped forward once more.
The Steel Knight, enveloped in massive white steam, charged toward the "May Wind" like an out-of-control locomotive. The recent white arc had already torn through the mist, revealing Aiven’s true location.
He saw Aiven clad in the "Violet Eye" uniform, posing as a wizard.
Mid-air.
Seeing the state of the Steel Knight, Aiven hesitated slightly. For any opponent activating an enhancing ability, the best strategy is to temporarily avoid confrontation.
No matter how long-lasting the enhancing ability, it surely couldn’t persist for more than half an hour, and once ti’s up, it would turn into a simple halfwit.
However, due to the presence of the "May Wind," he had no choice but to confront head-on.
He knew it, and the Steel Knight knew it even better.
If he chose to flee, a Steel Knight retaining even sixty to eighty percent of his power could clear out the "May Wind" in under half an hour, even potentially sinking the warship altogether.
If Aiven were rely an Official Wizard, confronting a Great Knight head-on would indeed be a tough decision, but unfortunately, he was not...
"A small scene, not a big problem."
He casually tore off the hindering wizard robe used for disguise.
Just like the Steel Knight’s thoughts, Aiven intended to showcase his Tier 3 capabilities, openly and with his pair of iron fists... to puml him to death!
Thus.
Luxu—
A crimson magic spiritual light shot out from Aiven’s fingertip, hitting the less agile Steel Knight like lightning.
[Witchcraft: Flesh and Blood Uprising]
This was already Aiven’s signature move against Warrior-type Transcendents—swift to execute, highly targeted, non-lethal but sufficiently vexing.
"Huh, why is my hand moving on its own?"
It wasn’t my fault; it was rely that my body reacted faster than my mind. Before realizing it, the magical spiritual light had already shot out.
Yes, exactly like that.
Yet, the towering giant rely shuddered before calming down.
[Physical Liberation—One hundred percent!]
The Extraordinary Power of a Tier 2 Official Knight cos from the brutalization of the body, where the process of releasing physical strength also continuously enhances the knight’s control over their body.
Apparently not very effective against a Great Knight.
"A... Brigadier General?"
However, upon recognizing Aiven’s attire, Kungang shivered once more, reacting even more intensely than to the witchcraft.
His first thought was that the Phaletis Kingdom sent a Great Knight not recorded in the intelligence report, but he quickly dismissed the notion.
The globally accepted norm is that, except for civilian ranks, generals are usually Great Knights or Official Knights who have perford great deeds. Aiven bore none of a Great Knight’s powerful life energy field; hence, he must be the latter.
Moreover, he had just deployed formidable witchcraft, and it’s common knowledge that past Tier 3, the paths of Knights and Wizards were mutually incompatible.
