Chapter 41 The Stone of Truth!
Chapter 41 The Stone of Truth!
William did not respond when he heard Rorona's words. Even though his junior brother had already made a crazy statement to kill him, he just put the sword in front of him to make a defensive move, as if he was not planning to attack on his own initiative.
It seems that the relationship between the two brothers was not as bad as they seem at present? Rorona thought.
"Level? Although I don't know how you can see it, as you said, I only have the level of a high-level warrior and an intermediate-level alchemist. However, I am different from my senior brother. Since I was a child, I have no talent for practicing fighting spirit or the magic required for alchemy. I guess I can only stop at this level in my life. But level is just one of the factors that measure strength... a very small factor." Leco said, holding the handle of the weapon that had been carrying behind him in his right hand.
The weapon was completely pulled out. It was a one-handed sword, with a total length of five feet. The hilt of the sword alone was one foot and two. Unlike the one-handed sword that was usually made into double-edged, this weapon had only a single blade, which looked like a different version of the sword. Moreover, the blade used for attack had no sign of being cut. Its dull appearance was similar to the rough iron sword used in the academy to practice. The only unusual thing was that the entire handle of this weapon was pitch black and dull, just as the light around it would be attracted by it.
"This is..." Teacher William's eyes were also attracted by this weapon.
"Coin, you know I don't know how to name it, so I call it a coin." Leco touched the back of the sword of the weapon called "Coin", and his obsessed eyes were a little fanatic: "Are you still wondering what kind of ability it has? Don't worry, just experience it yourself in the battle with it, and by the way, understand what kind of thing the master left us. It took me a long time to understand it."
Could it be...William showed a surprised expression after hearing these words, but before he could think about it, Lecco had already jumped from above with a knife.
"Rolona retreated!" William shouted. The other party held a weapon he didn't know. Although the magic weapons in this world would not pose any major threat to him, as an alchemist, I knew the strange effects that unknown magic props could bring. It would be better to keep a distance without knowing the power and range of this weapon.
In fact, he didn't need to say that after Leco pulled out a weapon that he couldn't recognize, Rorona ran away. With a long-term understanding, he learned that Leco is not a fool who can't even see his strength in the enemy. Since he can be so arrogant, he must be sure.
"Teacher William, I'll leave it to you!" Rorona hid at a distance of fifty meters away from the battlefield and began to cheer loudly.
Before the enemy's abilities are unknown, it is always more effective to conduct long-range attacks.
"Sword Rain." William waved his left hand, and three long swords of the same style and material appeared again. After the long sword was shot at Lecco, William rushed up to harass the enemy by projecting the long sword to make up for his shortcomings in sword skills. This is William's plan. However, because the previous opponent was too big, this method was not effective and was not used.
After avoiding three oncoming swords in a coquettish manner, Lecco and William finally got into the fight.
The two weapons touched each other, and the result was completely out of William's expectation. Before this, he even thought that his weapon would collapse in just one contact, but the result was that the black long sword easily slashed through his long sword. No, it should be said that his long sword directly penetrated the long sword. This long sword seemed to be just a phantom without any attack!
Lecco didn't care about the result at all, and raised his knife to attack William again - was the previous situation itself as expected?
William hurriedly raised his sword to block it, and the situation was the same as before. The black sword that originally hit his weapon penetrated through it like a phantom again. It can be said that it had no impact on him at all!
Is that just that? What is the point of this? William looked at Lecco in confusion.
Still not hearing about the previous effect, Lecco continued to launch a slash, and William blocked it with his weapon again. Just when he thought he would penetrate his weapon directly like before, he surprised him again...
The two weapons were still about to part. The only difference was that William's long sword was directly broken into two pieces this time. The cut-off part was inserted into the ground. The clip was as smooth as a mirror, as if it was cut open by something extremely sharp. But this was obviously impossible. Although William's sword skills were not good, as a senior alchemist, the weapon composed of the alloy he refined was not so simple and would be damaged. It could be at least a legendary weapon to this extent!
"It's activated, it seems I'm lucky." After destroying William's weapon directly, Lecco stopped the attack. It seemed that as he said, his main purpose was not to kill William, but to convince him that it would be the best not to move weapons.
William's eyes stopped on the long black knife that would not reflect any light.
"It is called a coin, just like a tossed coin. There are two extreme possibilities for it to fall. One is that the attack is directly judged as invalid and will not cause any damage to people. The other is absolutely effective. As long as the effect is activated, there is nothing it cannot break. No matter what is blocking it is matter, fighting magic, or barrier... This is not a physical attack, but a higher-level law attack." Lecco began to answer William's doubts.
"This... cannot be done! I have never heard of a weapon with this ability."
"Ha, that's why I said you don't understand what kind of thing we have at all!" Lecco covered his head and started laughing wildly, stopping: "The stone of truth is located at the peak of the alchemist - the proof of the sage. In history, as long as it is refined into the sage, it is a sage! Nothing in the world was generated out of thin air, except it - the stone of truth! No one knows how to refine it, or the methods of sages in the past dynasties have different methods, so it is seen as the product of the sage's understanding of the truth, so it is called the stone of truth... Almost everyone thinks that the stone of truth is the product of the concrete manifestation of the truth, but in fact it is the opposite!"
Leco raised his hand, and a spear with a patterned rock appeared in his hand, and was refined out of thin air. The situation was the same as that of Teacher William: "The Stone of Truth is just a prop that sages of all generations have unintentionally created in order to deceive the laws of the world. This concrete refinement that ignores the laws of equivalent exchange in the world is evidence. It is obviously just a prop for a liar, but it is named Truth. Isn't it ridiculous? You who also possess half a stone of truth should have known this long ago!"
William was silent, his eyes fell on the mysterious ring that he had brought in his right hand before the war began.
"What I want to tell you now is what you don't know... It is also the result of my research after we separated. I have not opened a prop shop or sold sesame cakes like you! I have never forgotten the master's will." Throw the spear aside: "Although the truth stone is just a prop used by sages in history to deceive the law, it does not need to be questioned. As the previous holder of this truth stone, our master also made research and concluded that the special abilities of the truth stone can only be exerted if it is a recognized person..."
Leco raised the black sword in his hand: "But is it really the case? After all, no matter how magical the thing is, it is just a material. So since you separated from me and me, you have been doing this research. Finally, I finally refined the half of the stone of truth I held with the weapon in my hand. In this way, it doesn't matter if I can't control the stone, as long as I can control the weapon in my hand..."
"So, since the truth stone has the possibility of fusion with other items, then what if the fusion is the crystal that seals one-quarter of Iandroth, and the fusion is also a whole stone of truth? Then it is not impossible to directly summon part of Iandroth's body!" Lecco's face had been completely replaced by madness and stretched out his hand to William again: "Come on, my senior brother! With your help, we will definitely be able to complete the master's final will. Isn't the master always a father to us?"
