Chapter 525: Law Rank (2/2)
Gravis didn't want to give the Inquisitor any chances to recover. Gravis had been able to get him by surprise, and that tactic wouldn't work a second time. This was his best chance to win the fight!
BANG!
Suddenly, Gravis jumped to the side without warning. The dodge had been so abrupt that it couldn't possibly have been planned.
WHOOOM! SHING!
A powerful force pulled Gravis to the ground, and at his old position, a thin spire of earth shot into the sky. This spire had appeared so incredibly quickly that Gravis hadn't even been able to keep track of its rise. To him, it looked like the spire had just appeared out of nowhere. Its speed had been absolutely terrifying!
Gravis had aborted his attack and decided to dodge due to his Law of Danger warning him. It had told him that if he continued his attack, he would die. Due to the feeling of danger, Gravis dodged without even thinking about it, and that action had saved his life.
The Inquisitor gritted his teeth as he realized that Gravis had managed to dodge his most powerful attack against all odds. 'The Law of Danger!' he thought with anger. 'So that's how he managed to find Jessy's true body! This will be troublesome.'
Meanwhile, Gravis was circling the Inquisitor. 'The force of attraction has vanished,' Gravis thought as he remembered the force that pulled him to the ground just now. 'It felt similar to gravity, but it didn't feel quite the same. I also doubt that a King would be able to gain insights into the Laws of Gravity. Such a thing is way too advanced for our Realm.'
'This means that this is some kind of Law of Attraction or Connection or something like that. If it were a Law of Gravity, I would still feel the force now. This force probably only works as long as I don't touch the ground,' Gravis quickly thought as he analyzed his opponent's powers.
'Additionally, that earth spire had been too fast to be just a regular Law. Such an insane speed and power couldn't come from just one Law,' Gravis thought.
Gravis was right.
What made the Inquisitor such an outstanding level five King? Was it the number of Laws that he understood?
No, the Inquisitor had comprehended five Laws, which was a slight bit above average for a level five King. So, why was he so powerful?
The reason for that was which Laws he had understood.
The Opposer had told Gravis that Laws could be categorized, and one needed to understand several smaller Laws to combine them into a bigger Law.
The Inquisitor was so powerful because he had comprehended a Low-Rank Law, which required one to comprehend several Initial Laws first.
His Law of Earth Movement, Earth Spire, and Earth Vibration combined into one single Law, which was the Law of the Spire. This Law increased his attacking power and attack speed to an insane degree. Additionally, using the Law didn't use up as much Energy as one would believe.
This Law was the Inquisitor's most powerful weapon, but he could use it several times, making it even more dangerous.
BANG!
Gravis immediately stopped and turned around as another spire shot out in front of him with ridiculous speed.
'He might be slower than me, but his attack speed is definitely much faster,' Gravis thought.
CRRRR!
Earth rose again as it created another shield around the Inquisitor. Additionally, the shield blocked Gravis' Spirit Sense and made him unable to observe the Inquisitor.
BANG!
Gravis dodged to the side as another Spire shot out of the Inquisitor's shield. The Inquisitor had taken Gravis' Law of Danger into account and wanted to unleash an attack from somewhere else. If Gravis had only paid attention to the ground, he would be dead right now.
Gravis circled the earth shield as he tried to think of a strategy. 'Now I can't even get close to him. If I get too close to the earth shield, I won't have enough time to evade such a Spire.'
'Fuck, this really is like the Golden Dragon back then!'
