Chapter 396 – The True God Destroyer Crossbow (2/2)
“It’s too late to start the Thunderstorm Formation. Is there any other way to resist it?” Lucas said in a heavy voice.
“Other way?” Fatty suddenly thought of something and the Elemental Skill Book flew out. Compared with the lightning pillar dozens of meters wide, the ordinary-sized book seemed so fragile that it would be torn apart with just a touch.
“Go.” The skill book flew into the air and gradually approached the lightning pillar. In front of the nervous gazes of the people below, they came into contact.
With a sizzle, the lightning pillar shook, and then quickly shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye. The Elemental Skill Book emitted a blinding light as a steady stream of thunder energy was sucked into it and stored in the Elemental Mystery Realm.
“So strong?!” Everyone’s jaws dropped.
About ten minutes later, the huge pillar towering above Sky City was gone without a trace. Some lightning sparks arced on the Elemental Skill Book before everything slowly returned to silence.
“Hahaha, my God Destroyer Crossbow, the real God Destroyer Crossbow.” From below came the guffaws of Karl.
Having no time to see the changes in the Elemental Mystery Realm after absorbing the thunder energy, Fatty fell to the ground where he saw Karl shouting while holding a statue.
The statue had a human upper body and a horse lower body. It was indeed the Sagittarius centaur of the twelve constellations. Its hands were separated, the left hand in front and the right hand behind, slightly bent, as if drawing some kind of super powerful bow, but the hands were empty, with no bow or arrow.
“Where’s the bow, the arrows?” asked Fatty.
Karl grinned and stretched his palm to Lucas, asking for 1,000 magic stones, then stuffed them into the Sagittarius' mouth.
A dazzling light shot out of the Sagittarius' eyes. As the eyes glowed, various strange magic runes all over the Sagittarius lit up one by one until it became a luminous body. Elemental energy in the vicinity surged frantically and flocked to the Sagittarius.
After half an hour, a neigh could be heard from the Sagittarius. A bow suddenly appeared in the left hand and an arrow in the right. Bow drawn and arrow inserted, the statue aimed at the front.
“Who wants to try its power?” Karl said proudly.
“Shoot at that.” Fatty pointed to a high mountain far away.
Karl patted the Sagittarius on the head. A brilliant light flashed and the arrow whizzed from the bow. When the light went out, the bow also disappeared.
BOOOOOM!
Even from so far away, Fatty could feel the distant shockwave. The moment that the arrow in the statue's hand disappeared, the upper half of the gargantuan mountain ten kilometers high exploded. A massive mushroom cloud rose and rubble flew in all directions.
“Hiss…” Fatty gasped and looked dumbly at the remaining half of the mountain. No wonder it’s called God Destroyer Crossbow. An arrow shot from that even a God can be destroyed.
“How about it? What do you think?” Looking triumphantly at the stunned crowd, Karl felt that his many days of exhaustion had finally paid off.
Gulping, Fatty regained his wits and cried out, “Master Karl…”
“Please call me Blacksmith Grandmaster Karl,” Karl raised his head and declared proudly.
“What? Have you been promoted to Grandmaster?” This news was even more shocking than that arrow just now, and everyone around looked at Karl in pleasant surprise. Getting a shy nod from him, everyone was thrilled.
These days, powerful experts were everywhere, but there were few able second profession experts. A blacksmith grandmaster would bring not only honor but also amazing benefits to Sky City.
“Heheheh, good, very good, hahaha!”
Fatty suddenly burst out laughing. Reck first frowned, but then also laughed out loud.
“The God Destroyer Crossbow has appeared at just a perfect time. Grandmaster Karl, you’ve rendered meritorious service. What do you want? As long as Sky City has it, don’t hold back,” declared Fatty.
