Chapter 85 - Vol1 Ch85: King to king (2/2)
When he swung the cutlass, it didn’t cut through the opponent’s swords as he had expected. Negary had to retreat in order to avoid the other armored men’s attacks.
〖 Ancestral Spirit Armor 〗 as Negary sensed the remnant soul aura on the armors, he instantly understood what these things were.
Before Eldridge produced the Last God serum, the Ancestral Spirit Armor was the representative supernatural power of the Royas Kingdom. Strong Combatants of the Royas Kingdom would choose to sacrifice themselves and turn their remnant soul into an Ancestral Spirit.
Truthfully, Ancestral Spirits were similar in a way to Negary’s Ghostmen’s secondary souls, but there was also a difference. The Ghostmen’s secondary souls undergo a pseudo-release to obtain a supernatural power when separated from their True Spirit.
While Ancestral Spirits gave up pseudo-release, gave up their field of perception, gave up their own sense of self to obtain powerful interference force instead.
The Royas Kingdom would then attach these Ancestral Spirits to their armor, look for people who were suitable to each Ancestral Spirit and have them put them on the armor to obtain the power of the interference force. After a certain amount of training, they would truly become a one-man army who could match a hundred.
〖 Their swords are reinforced with interference force so they weren’t destroyed? 〗
Negary thought to himself.
The knights didn’t stand still and continued to rush towards Negary with their swords in hand. Negary didn’t try to avoid them and instead threw the cutlass in his hand at Eldridge, who was still standing under the stone statue.
One of the knights swung their sword to block the cutlass, while the other knights’ swords directly plunged into Negary’s body.
“Oh no!” Eldridge silently grimaced as he saw Negary’s body directly explode, his red blood splashed all over the Ancestral Spirit Armors around him. The knights all screamed in pain after being contaminated by the blood.
〖 To use an Ancestral Spirit Armor, one’s spirit and mind must be suitable with the Ancestral Spirit inside. So once the Ancestral Spirit Armor becomes contaminated, so will the suitable knights wearing it 〗 since Negary’s blood was mixed with a large amount of Negary’s willpower, it crippled this team of Ancestral Spirit knights just like that.
Eldridge didn’t even have time to sigh, a huge amount of force erupted right in front of him as his vision became blurred, a hand appeared abruptly immediately in front of Eldridge’s face. A hand filled with scales and razor-sharp metal claws.
If Eldridge had reacted any slower, the hand would have inserted itself directly into his eye sockets, went straight into his skull and messed up everything inside his brain.
A huge interference force gushed out like a tidal wave and forced the owner of the hand to retreat and reveal themselves.
“Negary!” Eldridge mumbled the name of his opponent. Descending into Smick’s body to attract his attention while staying hidden within the darkness, waiting for an opportunity to deliver a fatal blow, if he called himself the second-best assassin on this continent, there would probably be no first.
〖 Jliost! 〗 the strange syllable combined with the [Dragon’s Pressure] that filled the air to release a destructive force that blew Eldridge’s interference force apart. Negary immediately threw a punch towards Eldridge’s head without any intention to talk.
As the red and white cranial substances splattered onto the stone statue behind him, Negary’s dragon pupils shifted without letting down his guard, Eldridge’s headless corpse slowly faded away to reveal its illusory nature.
〖 You really can’t be underestimated 〗 the pressure that Negary gave off slowly grew heavier and heavier. Eldridge had taken advantage of the moment when he was repelled by the interference force to create an illusion and avoid Negary’s killing blow.
