Chapter 195 [0193] Lighting up Bilgewater
The broken sword trembled, and the strong light flickered.
As Lux released some of her control over the light, she cast a spell for the first time in a way that matched people's definition of a mage.
With a tremor, a light and a dark, the broken sword in front of Lux changed from one to two.
Then, there was another light and dark and trembling - two became four.
Four became eight, eight became sixteen...
In a few breaths, countless light-forged broken blades appeared in front of her. They seemed to be real and unreal, as if they were each other's shadows, trembling, flickering, and hissing in sync.
Then, accompanied by a call of "Light up", these broken blades shot out in all directions and turned into a long dragon in the black fog.
Chain explosion.
At the end of the long dragon, every flicker represented the shattering of a light-forged broken blade; and every shattering of a light blade would turn into countless bursts of light points, clearing out the surrounding undead waving their shriveled arms and roaring silently.
Light Torrent.
Uncontrolled redundant magic power gushed out from all parts of the dragon in the form of light torrents, making the dragon of light seem to be attacking in a surprise attack, destroying the increasingly thick black fog without rules, like an arc of lightning piercing the night sky.
Resonance Chain.
When several undead knights who looked tough appeared and planned to attack Lux directly, the dragon of light circled its body and tightly strangled the enemy who could not be solved by torrents and explosions - this process did not even require Lux to control it manually, it was completely a spontaneous phenomenon caused by the resonance of light elements and other elements.
Lux learned these basic principles of magic a long time ago.
But because of the restrictions of conditions, magic power restrictions and insufficient magic control, she had never practiced it herself.
And now, in Bilgewater, facing the rolling soul-devouring black fog, without worrying about the magic power getting out of control, Lux used her magic power to light up the gloomy night sky.
Inside the temple, Drizzt and Graves could no longer close their mouths - the two were extremely grateful that they did not foolishly choose to confront Lux.
As for the priests of the Snake Mother, even though they knew that Nagakabouros's power was countless times stronger than Lux's, they still had to admit that this pink-faced... was indeed a brilliant person.
There is no doubt that Lux was already extraordinary without having to worry about losing control of her magic!
However, those who saw this scene and were full of surprise obviously could not have imagined that even with Lux's brilliant performance, there were still people correcting and criticizing Lux's spellcasting methods.
"Reduce the supply of magic power, don't be so excited like a stifled wild dog - are you trying to charge the walls of the city?" Karya, who felt the endless magic power flowing by but could not absorb it directly, was extremely irritated because of the thirst for magic power. "Don't worry about the magic power control, it's not about releasing the control, do you want the magic power to flow back?"
"..."
Such a familiar way of speaking made Lux subconsciously silent, and she immediately reduced the magic power output. As Karya judged, reducing some of the magic power output would not weaken the effect of magic, but make this dragon of light more flexible.
"Don't stand there stupidly. Either set up defensive magic and traps, or move." Kalya continued to correct, "I know it feels good to cast spells recklessly, but don't be overwhelmed by the excitement brought by this powerful magic. Stay cautious!"
Lux blinked, carefully pulled out a hand, and created a light trap of twisted barrier for herself - the trap that once tricked Talon, which looked like a light shield, but actually exploded into a flash bomb when touched.
Then, while maintaining the twisting and breathing of the dragon of light, she began to move irregularly. Although this action looked a bit weird, if there was an enemy hiding in the dark and wanted to attack Lux from a distance, I'm afraid it would be impossible to aim for a while.
And this is exactly what Thresh, who was hiding in the black fog and waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack, felt most directly at this moment.
……………………
Threshe also chose to be in this carnival.
Although it was unknown why the Black Mist began to expand irregularly at this time, Thresh still planned to take the opportunity to collect a few souls in his soul lantern.
So, he rode the Black Mist and came to Bilgewater.
This time, Thresh was lucky - when he arrived in Bilgewater, the bodies of the drunken sailors had just been controlled by the Black Mist. Before their souls merged into the Black Mist, Thresh opened his soul lantern in time and took in these wailing souls.
Thresh hated the taste of wine.
But fortunately, even the souls of drunkards would not have the smell of wine that made him sick.
Satisfiedly closing the soul lantern, he dragged his chain and walked in the empty streets of Bilgewater.
This was not the first time Thresh came to this port city. At least half of the souls in his soul lantern were collected here.
However, Bilgewater seemed particularly quiet tonight, even quieter than the previous Soul-Eating Night.
In this silence, Thresh smelled the smell of weakness.
Bilgewater is weak...
Thinking of this, Thresh swung the chain in his hand and decided to do something more adventurous. He went to the temple that Hecarim had tried many times but never succeeded in entering.
Maybe there were enough souls there to satisfy him... who knows?
Then, before Thresh arrived at the temple, he saw an amazing dragon of light.
To be honest, Thresh was a little surprised when he saw the dragon. At least from the appearance, the dragon was really impressive - but after comparing it with Hecarim, Thresh grinned and laughed silently.
Obviously, in Thresh's eyes, this dragon of light was not as good as Hecarim, the brainless fool.
Every Soul-Eating Night, Hecarim would make a destructive charge towards the temple, and then he would die and roll back to the depths of the black fog to wait for rebirth, so Thresh was sure that there should be a being in the temple that could deal with Hecarim.
The cautious Thresh never approached the temple, so he didn't know what it was - but he was sure that it was not the light dragon now.
In the past Soul-Eating Night, there had never been such a dragon in the sky of Bilgewater. Does that mean that the temple guardian today is not the guy who suppressed Hecarim every time?
Thinking of this, Thresh ran towards the temple lightly, and then saw Lux outside the temple - the brightest soul Thresh had ever seen.
Almost at the moment of seeing Lux, Thresh had decided to make her his collection.
Such a beautiful soul is enough to completely light up his soul-guiding lamp!
The despicable Thresh planned to sneak attack.
However, before he could get close to Lux and throw out his chain, Lux, who was reminded by Kalya, began to move irregularly.
Seeing this scene, Thresh couldn't help but swing the chain and cursed in Ochen language.
