Chapter 437: This is a Dragon King!

When the cries for help appeared, Link was less than 650 feet away from the ball of shadows. At the same time, his vision kept flashing with notifications. Apparently, he had completed a mission.
Mission Complete: The Girl in the Forest
Reward: Assassin’s Vision of Truth (Legendary)
A blue-gold icon flashed faintly in Link’s vision. He looked carefully and saw that it was a pair of goggles. The lenses were dark blue and seemed to be opaque.
Link checked its attributes.
Assassin’s Vision of Truth
Lower-tier Legendary (13)
Effect: After the user wears this eye mask, all targets under Level-13 in their vision will have their weaknesses marked. The effective range is 300 feet. After that, there are fewer details as the distance increases.
(Note: As long as one can find the weakness, anyone can be killed, and anything can be destroyed.)
The attributes were so powerful, and Link was excited. He immediately said, “Appear!”
The eye mask flashed, and Link felt a weight in his hand. A slightly warm object appeared. It was the Assassin’s Vision of Truth.
The actual thing was a bit different from the icon. The icon showed a pair of goggles, but the object was more like an eye mask. There were just two dark blue crystal lenses in the eye area.
Placing it on his head, it was neither tight nor loose. He could barely feel it. After adjusting it, Link discovered that nothing in his vision had changed. At the same time, three control runes appeared in his mind.
He checked and learned the uses of these three runes. The first was the Eye of Truth, the second was Flash Protection, and the third was Eye Mask Transparency.
He added some Dragon Power into the third rune, and his vision brightened a bit. Creating a mirror to look at himself, he discovered that the eye mask was gone. Link reached for it; the eye mask was still on his face.
This function was pretty good. Otherwise, it would be ugly to have an eye mask on all day. People would think he was blind.
Of course, this wasn’t important. The important thing was that, if he put on an eye mask, people wouldn’t be able to read his eyes. This was a good thing against enemies, but it would be difficult to communicate with his allies.
However, he was facing an enemy now. Link selected the control rune again, and the eye mask reappeared.
Next, Link added some Dragon Power into the first control rune. His vision dimmed, and everything became transparent.
He looked down at his hand. He could clearly see the skin, flesh, veins, tendons, bones, and even the path that the Dragon Power flowed through.
Link focused and could see many nodes in the Dragon Power in his arm. This discovery shocked him. He was sure that if he purposely damaged those nodes, it would only take minimal power to disable his entire arm. It could even affect the operation of Dragon Power in his entire body.
Then Link looked at a rock the size of his head on the ground. It became translucent like a crystal and didn’t seem to contain any weaknesses. Link raised his foot and pressed down lightly. The rock changed. Many white fissures appeared on it like cottony spider webs.
The “cotton” started from under Link’s foot and snaked through the entire rock. Finally, they converged where the rock met the ground. The exact appearance and brightness changed as Link changed his foot’s force.
A rock is a dead object, Link realized when he saw this. There is no force inside it, so there aren’t any so-called weaknesses either. But when I step onto it, force appears, and energy paths are created. If I follow that path, I can find a sudden change in force output and use some strength…
With a crack, Link was able to use very little strength to shatter this sturdy rock.
Only living objects had weaknesses.
After getting a general idea of the theory behind the Vision of Truth, Link looked up at the ball of shadows. It was 650 feet away, out of the eye mask’s range, but it still had an effect.
The purple-black fog weakened a lot, revealing a blurry shadow inside. Link’s heart clenched at the sight. It was like a ball of thread that kept wriggling…
No. More accurately, it was like a clump of black worms entangled in each other. It was wet, sticky, and kept moving.
Link was too far away, and the Vision of Truth could only see that much. He continued moving forward.
Soon, he was less than 300 feet away from the shadows. Here, he could see even more clearly. The blurry black strips had become slightly transparent. Some dark purple energy paths appeared.
Occasionally, frosty-white light would shine through the worm-like things, flashing weakly. If not for the help of the Vision of Truth, Link wouldn’t be able to see them at all.
He was delighted. There’s something up!
The law runes in the space, the anxious cries of help, and the occasional white light all proved that a Legendary figure was trapped by this Void creature.
