Chapter 405: House Eclipse Moon’s Invitation (2/2)
“It’s just some huge beast encirclement. However, what’s different from the usual one outside is that our House Eclipse Moon’s huge beast encirclement is just like a powerful sentry stronghold. As we can even control some of the powerful huge beasts and monsters that couldn’t be tamed normally, we can use them to fight against the enemy if there was any arcane team infiltrating those places. Most of the time, we have a symbiotic relationship with them, helping each other in times of need.” Annon watched Ayrin and bitterly spoke, “The big advantage we had over House Roland in the past is the aid of many powerful huge beasts. But the most important Beast Ring has been breached by the cooperation between House Roland and House Baratheon now. Some of the huge beasts and monsters inside had become materials for their artifacts instead.”
“I see. Does House Roland have many huge beast encirclements?” Ayrin looked directly at Annon and the other three Eclipse Moon arcane masters and spoke, “Our priority here is to kill their Emperor Evil Eye. Do you know where their Emperor Evil Eye is?”
“What? You want to hunt their Emperor Evil Eye?”
The four Eclipse Moon arcane masters were shocked.
They knew the terror of Emperor Evil Eye better than anyone else.
However, they returned to their senses immediately...... The arcane team before them could annihilate the Goat Horn Team. Such a monstrous team might even be able to handle Emperor Evil Eye?
“Emperor Evil Eye is inside House Roland’s territory. The place it lives in is called Evil Eye Cave. We know its exact location, but going there is too dangerous.” Annon spoke of the facts with a serious expression, “Because it’s at the central zone of House Roland’s territory, so you will likely be attacked by arcane teams from both House Roland and House Baratheon. Just Baratheon’s elite teams we know of numbered over thirteen.”
“Then we better not go.” Stingham immediately commented.
“Idiot!” Rinloran stared at Stingham with a killing gaze.
“It’s fine, just tell us where it is. We came here to fight against Baratheon’s arcane teams anyway!” Ayrin spoke with fighting spirit.
“Do you just want to fight against Baratheon? Or does Emperor Evil Eye have some special utility? Are you trying to obtain something from it?” Annon hesitated for a moment and asked Ayrin.
“It’s for my cultivation. I have pure human bloodline. By integrating Emperor Evil Eye’s bloodline, I will have greater room for improvement.” Chris answered without hesitation.
“In that case, can you visit our House’s chief shaman?” Annon spoke with a serious expression, “You were originally friends House Eclipse Moon had acknowledged. In addition, all of you have come here to fight against House Roland and House Baratheon. If you managed to kill Emperor Evil Eye, it would also be of great help to us. So our House Eclipse Moon will also provide as much help as possible.”
“Are you going to give us some powerful artifact like the Hat of Concealment we gave to Jano?” Stingham’s eyes beamed.
“If it's going to be artifact, then there’s no need.” Before Rinloran could scold Stingham, Ayrin spoke.
“Why not?” Stingham shouted at Ayrin’s refusal, “Are you an idiot?”
“An idiot calling other people idiot?” Rinloran lamented.
“That’s because we already have many powerful artifacts. Also, the stronger the opponent we face, the less help artifacts can provide. Just like encountering the Goat Horn Team this time......” Ayrin’s gaze fell onto Augusta’s corpse, “His arcane skill seems to be able to interrupt the manifestation of all domains, rendering my Treasured Book of Time and Treasured Book of Sealing useless...... And these guys have such fast casting speed, we have to take an extra step from activating to generating the arcane power of any artifact compared to casting arcane skills ourselves. So using artifacts becomes slower than casting...... An even stronger opponent will have an even faster casting speed. If we don’t become more powerful ourselves, no matter how powerful the artifact we have is, we won’t get a chance to use it...... So the most important point is to become stronger ourselves.”
After a pause, Ayrin excitedly swung his fist and shouted with enthusiasm, “So next, I want to fight without using any artifact!”
“That’s because you are a pervert!” Stingham pouted, “A handsome genius like me should have a sword a hundred times better than Rinloran’s Thousand Storms Sword. Cutting anyone down with one strike is the coolest thing to do.”
“That’s because you are an idiot and slacker!” Rinloran lamented with an urge to cut Stingham down.
“Ayrin, our House Eclipse Moon’s distinguished friend, it’s not related to artifacts.” Annon looked at Ayrin, then spoke in a serious expression mixed with a trace of complex feeling, “Our chief shaman...... he practiced a unique secret skill. He is an elder who has lived for a long time, so he has an extensive range of knowledge. I believe that if you visit him, he will definitely be able to provide some useful advice.”
“Ah? Not some secret treasure of House Eclipse Moon? You’re not giving away some super powerful artifact? Then we aren’t going!” Stingham immediately felt depressed and disappointed.
“If you don’t shut up now, do you believe that I will shove a sword into your mouth!?” Rinloran gave off a chilling warning word by word.
Stingham immediately sealed his mouth.
“Death’s Energy: Shadow Ball!”
After Ayrin sapped a shadow ball from Augusta’s corpse like recycling waste, he nodded towards Annon, “Then let’s go now?”
“Ayrin, what about this grafted zombie?” At that moment, Moss pointed at the twin-head oceanic monster.
The ‘Zombification: Grafting Technique’ hailed as one of the strongest necromancy skills during the Magus Era was very creepy and powerful. The twin-head oceanic monster had lost one head, the other head was also full of wounds, but it did not completely die. It appeared to be half dead, and its arcane energy did not disperse. It seemed that only when the other head and Ingit’s head at its chest were destroyed, it would completely die.
“Let it follow of course. It’s much stronger than normal arcane masters. Also, it was so hard to find the chance to use this arcane skill, I may not even find a chance in future.” Ayrin spoke as if it was natural. He looked at the twin-head oceanic monster with one head missing like looking at an interesting pet.
“......With such an ugly thing following, my handsome image is going to be affected.” Stingham grumbled in his heart.
