Chapter 197 Egg Shell
In fact, the strength of these alien god believers is not strong, and they can even be called the bottom of the same level.
Except for that special extremely fanatical and chaotic mental state, their strength is not obtained by their own practice, but is given by the old gods.
Compared with normal professionals, their strength seems empty and weak, and they often do things that are different from normal professionals.
This is why this seventh-level alien god believer had almost no power to resist, and was caught by Joem without even running away.
Being tricked by such a group of people who are trying to force their way forward, and even being turned into a girl and thrown into the tentacles for several months, made Ivani feel extra ashamed.
"Although their strength is indeed average, Evan, the secret ritual array that trapped you and your guards was also set up by them."
Anvis just smiled at Ivani, who was a little angry.
"That is to say, among the high-ranking members of the Moon Calling Secret Cult, there must be opponents of the same level as us. I'm afraid that the evaluation of "trash fish" is unfair."
"So, Evan, do you know what this eggshell-like thing is and what it does?"
"I do know a little."
Sighing, Evan looked at Avis and nodded somewhat depressed.
"Based on its unique power, I think you should have some guesses, but I'm not sure."
Holding the eggshell-like strange object, the girl gently tapped the extremely stable pale white crystal structure.
"Although it sounds a bit absurd, this eggshell seems to be the eggshell of the patron saint [Rai] that the people on the island think they are."
"Rai's...eggshell?"
Although it had been expected, Avis still found it a little unbelievable after hearing this guess.
Because it is a snake body, is it oviparous?
"The old gods did not appear out of thin air. If we trace back infinitely to the past, we can also trace back to their original origins."
Evan explained.
"According to the myths on the island, in ancient times, when the purple moon was closest to the earth, an egg came into the world.
The god [Lai] was born from the egg, walked on the earth, and was the incarnation of the moon, holding the power of the moon and the stars."
"Although it is just a legend that cannot be verified, it can well explain the noble power of this eggshell."
"As an eggshell, its concept is 'protection'. If it is extended further, it can also involve 'pregnancy' and 'rebirth'."
As she said, Ivani stroked the surface of the eggshell.
I don't know what she did, but the pale white glow of the eggshell suddenly lit up.
A layer of white, semi-solid protective shield like an eggshell suddenly enveloped her body surface, looking as beautiful and exquisite as a crystal artwork.
"This is the fourth-level [Mage Shield] I cast using the eggshell as a spellcasting medium. You can try its defensive ability yourself."
Ivani explained what she did.
Avis nodded, looking at the thin shield that seemed very fragile, and casually rubbed out a ball of extremely cold light and pressed it directly on the shield.
No reaction -
There was really no change. Although the rising ice flames kept hitting the protective wall, the protective shield did not produce even the slightest ripple, as if it had not been attacked at all.
"No reaction?"
Looking at this scene, Avis was really surprised.
In his estimation, although it might not be broken, it should not be so that there would not be even a little change.
"Evan, can I let my guards test it?"
"Of course -"
Evanni nodded indifferently and made a "please" gesture.
"Jom, trouble."
With Avis's approval, Jom stepped forward, and a simple rapier made entirely of ice-blue magic appeared in his hand.
"Sorry, Lord Evan!"
Aiming at the shield, he pointed his sword at it with great precision and swiftness.
This time, under Jom's stab, the shield flickered slightly, and the part directly hit by the sword tip was slightly concave inward, but it still firmly blocked Jom's rapier.
Jom's eyes focused, and the tip of the rapier in his hand suddenly flashed a bright star. The terrifying magic power focused on one point, like a meteorite passing through the sky, and suddenly thrust forward with a sword.
Secret sword skill - [Starfall]
This is a secret sword skill specifically used to destroy the shield. Under Jom's sword, the shield flickered slightly, and was finally completely penetrated, and then shattered like a real eggshell.
But when the shield was broken, the fragments did not disappear directly, but turned into a stream of light and merged into Evannie's body, which significantly increased her power.
"This shield has a very strong defense even in the eighth level, Lord Anvis."
Retracting the magic rapier, Jom said the result of his test in a deep voice.
"And that's not all."
Evannie continued.
"When the shield is broken, the shield fragments will not disappear directly, but will turn into a special power and merge into your body, temporarily improving all your abilities.
Just now, my strength has been improved to exceed the limit of level 6, but not to the level of level 7.
The extent of this improvement may be related to the duration of the shield, but I'm not sure."
The blue-haired girl returned the strange eggshell in her hand to Avis with some regret, and told the test results.
.
….….
After the test, the three of them left the underground maze with the seventh-level black-robed priest.
According to Ivanni's suggestion, the three did not return to Lavanlais, but went directly to a hidden underground shelter at the junction of the wasteland and the forest.
There, the curse power of the island at night will be weakened to a safe level.
Before Ivanni was caught by the secret cult, they lived there for about half a month.
There was a reason to bring the seventh-level black-robed priest.
Although his strength was at the bottom and his soul was polluted by the power of the old gods and was worthless, the body of a seventh-level professional had enough value in itself.
Ivanni was going to use a special secret technique to temporarily refine it into a summoned creature similar to the undead to protect herself, so that they could quickly add a pseudo-seventh-level combat power.
At the same time, on the black-robed priest, Anvis found a necklace that was completely different from other pagans, as well as a black robe of better quality.
The necklace was black and green all over, with a very strong alien power. The center was not engraved with a twisted pentagram, but a purple moon.
This was a better medium for prophecy than those low-level necklaces. However, after Anvis learned the truth about the island from Evan, it had a new use.
As the material of the ‘Dream Guide’, it opened the door to the island’s dream world.
In the family’s basic mysticism course, there was a special class on how to enter the dream world.
Its scope covers the introduction and basic rules of the dream world, the various ways to enter the dream world, the drawing of the dream array, and how to use special items to create specific dream guides.
The dream world is not a complete whole, but like a multidimensional plane, with the ‘Dream of Unival’ as the main world, and countless small dream worlds like stars attached to the main world.
The dream layer of this island is also a small dream world like this.
The function of the Dream Guide is to locate a specific dream world and lead the holder into it in conjunction with the dream array.
