Chapter 408 - Chapter 408: Chapter 388: New Rune Power! (2/2)
As he absorbed the first Forbidden rare artifact, it felt like freshly caught oysters, scallops, and large prawns neatly arranged on ice, shimmering with an enticing luster, complemented with specially prepared lemon slices and cocktail sauce – one bite and the fresh, juicy flavors, the refreshing and sweet taste of the ocean, burst forth in his mouth.
Next, devouring the spiritual power of the second Forbidden rare artifact was like a skilled chef expertly flipping a cod or steak, the golden crust enveloping tender and juicy flesh that made one’s mouth water.
The third Forbidden rare artifact, in his eyes, was like braised pork with a shiny red color, fatty but not greasy, melting in the mouth upon entry.
The fourth, like steamed fish, was fresh and tender, preserving the most pure taste of the ingredients…
The fifth, the sixth, the seventh, respectively resembled pizza, pasta, roast chicken, each exuding the rich aroma of cheese and herbs.
Karl almost crazily feasted, truly wanting to indulge in the intoxicating sensations.
“Such an experience is truly too wonderful…”
The remaining Forbidden rare artifacts seemed like an array of cakes, puddings, and ice creams, a dazzling spread; chocolate mousse fine and smooth, melting upon contact; tiramisu with distinct layers, the rich aroma of coffee and cocoa woven together; and the colorful fruit tarts, the sweet taste of fresh fruits and the delicate cream perfectly blended.
What followed would be the time the Fischer family collectively became stronger!
In the Grand Hall beneath Fischer Manor, the family members and the high Blood Receivers of the Dawn Church eagerly awaited the results of the sacrifice.
The family members who inherited new rune powers were Darren, Felix, Helen, as well as Christine, Archer, and Karno.
Although Karno left the Fischer family again, he had brought back the important Black Stone Tablet from abroad by himself, which was the prime contributor to Karl’s timely awakening.
In any case, he could not be excluded during the distribution of rewards for merit.
Thus, Karno, distant in another province, simultaneously received two different types of rune power out of thin air.
The first type of rune power came from the undercover agent of the Reforged Church among the six Monarchs of the Stars Embrace Order, Isabel, a Forbidden rare artifact in the shape of a steel arm called “Iron Attraction.”
Transformed into rune power, Karno could activate it multiple times a day, absorbing and controlling various materials within several kilometers around him, the original cost was the expenditure of a random one to ten years of lifespan, but when it became rune power in Karno’s case, it required no cost.
Then, he obtained a new rune power, the Forbidden rare artifact numbered 722 from “Sword of Salvation” Noah, “Death Retrospection,” shaped like a colorless bracelet.
Once a year, he could use it passively; it allowed Karno to truly “die and come back to life.”
Darren was the second family member to receive new rune power. With the ability of the “Black Tide” to erase extraordinary power, coupled with his own ability to ignore physical attacks, he could already be considered strong on the defensive side.
So, he inherited his father Darren’s “giant emerald sword” to make up for the lack of offensive power.
The “giant emerald sword” evolved into the spirit rune “Emerald Ring.”
It changed from a giant sword into an emerald ring that could ignore defenses and slice through objects, capable of high-speed movement within several kilometers following Darren’s will.
At the same time, the sacrifice of the Forbidden rare artifact from Prince Conrad allowed Darren’s original “soul dice” to evolve.
It became the spirit rune “Soul Command.”
He didn’t have to roll the dice anymore; he could designate a relatively fair “game” himself, and the “game” rules and outcome would provide huge bonuses and penalties for both friends and foes!
Then there was Felix.
His “Counterattack Shield” also evolved into the spirit rune “Counterattack Barrier.”
With a call for the “Counterattack Barrier,” Felix could sustain a huge invisible shield over hundreds of meters; he had three chances within a single day to fully absorb and reflect any extraordinary power below the Heavenly Enlightenment Level.
Karl transformed the “Golden Holy Grail” into a new rune and bestowed it upon Helen.
She could directly summon five powerful Elemental Spirits, causing destruction beyond that of ordinary Monarchs, although currently, Helen’s Spiritual Power was insufficient, so she could only unleash its power once.
Karl’s reason for giving the “Golden Holy Grail” to Helen was simple, as those Elemental Spirits were all mystical beings, and Helen, who possessed the Destiny’s Trajectory of “Fantasy Fellow,” could communicate with them.
“If the relationship develops well enough, perhaps they can be persuaded to do more in the future,” Karl analyzed in his heart.
Perhaps, in the future, Helen could become friends with those Elemental Spirits, more directly becoming her summoned creatures, not just through summoning with rune power.
Christine received the rune power of the “Fallen Meteor.”
Although, under normal circumstances, as a rear-line personnel, she basically didn’t need to fight, possessing rune power was still much better than not having any.
Lastly, the new High Priest Archer inherited the legacy of the “Spirit-returning Tree,” and Karl directly disassembled most of the Forbidden rare artifacts carried by the six Monarchs of the Stars Embrace Order, the Wordless Elder, Silver Poet, Marquis Vlad, and the rest were all used to upgrade the already spirit rune “Spirit-returning Tree.”
Finally, he was quite surprised when the wave of spirituality suddenly unfolded!
The “Spirit-returning Tree” rose to its final form, with no scope for further evolution, and its extraordinary power reaching an unimaginably strong level!
Supreme Rune!
“Origin Spirit Sea”!
