Chapter 888: Chapter 323: Second Baptism (Two-in-One ga Chapter)
Although Rein had anticipated earlier that more cultists from the Secret Snake Sect might appear later, he didn’t expect them to co so quickly, and with the Earth Snake under their command.
This was going to be difficult to deal with.
Because the one leading them had an aura clearly not weaker than the one he killed, Ecosela, obviously another strong figure from the Secret Snake Sect with Legendary-level power.
Adding the Legendary Earth Snake…
It ant that Rein was facing the equivalent of two Legendary Strongn.
Though Rein had improved his strength slightly through skill points, dealing with two Legendary Strongn at the sa ti might still be beyond his reach.
However, Rein quickly noticed sothing.
A situation that might be very advantageous for him.
From the signal flare the other side just fired, along with their conversation and facial expression, it seed they were waiting for soone.
This imdiately made Rein think that they were likely waiting for Ecosela and those three others.
At that mont, Rein roughly understood their plan.
Their original plan should have been to attack Count Habs Mansion simultaneously with one group in the open and one in secret.
And the situation where he had previously killed Ecosela, seed unknown to the cultists in front of him.
So Rein quickly thought of a tactic—’Seize the initiative!’
This was why he threw Ecosela’s corpse forward in this scene.
At this mont, Rein held his already transford Dual-Handed Warhamr, and walked freely toward the Legendary Earth Snake as high as two or three stories, without any hint of fear, while softly counting out loud:
“One”
“Two”
…
“What a pity, ten exactly! If there were eleven, how wonderful that would be!”
Except for the leading Legendary figure, there were nine ‘small fry’ in total, preventing Rein from executing the plan to stack ten layers of Soul Energy and trigger the ‘Soul Shatter Strike’ directly with a charge.
As for Edmondo.
Actually, when he saw Rein throw out Ecosela’s corpse, Edmondo already had the idea of retreating first.
After all, with the enemy’s condition unclear, there was no need for him to take this risk.
Moreover, for him, avenging Ganon and Holdan wasn’t all that important, the Pope’s primary task for him was to bring back the Legendary Earth Snake.
But in the next second, his pupils shrank suddenly!
Because he saw the silver-armored young man opposite them, wielding a warhamr, walking straight towards them, completely unafraid of the Legendary Earth Snake at his feet.
This made Edmondo suddenly tense, after all, anyone who dared to disregard the Earth Snake either was a fool, or truly had the power to deal with the Earth Snake.
And to be able to take down Ecosela, surely the latter.
In an instant, Edmondo released his innate wizardry ‘Ice Shield,’ and besides that, imdiately began chanting for wizard spell:
“Ice Armor Technique!”
With the urgent sound of chanting, a circle of thick, oval-like Ice Shield first began to encircle Edmondo’s body.
And within the Ice Shield, at his surface, there was an additional layer of transparent and sturdy Ice Armor, resembling Knight Armor, completely protecting him.
With two strong defensive spells enveloping his body, Edmondo felt slightly at ease.
Moreover, his keen hearing naturally caught Rein’s whisper earlier, making him curious as he asked:
“What are you counting?”
Just now Edmondo’s chanting was casting spells making Rein a bit nervous, thinking the other side might launch an attack, but it turned out to be defensive spells, which made Rein slightly happy, because from his reaction, Edmondo seed quite wary of him.
Moreover, the opponent was an unusually rare Ice Mage.
But… now none of that was very important because he had already co within fifteen ters of them.
Rein raised his head, glanced at the huge creature in front of him and the people atop the Earth Snake’s head, smiled, and said: “Even if I tell you, you wouldn’t understand.”
“Whoosh!”
Just as Edmondo was pondering what Rein’s words ant, suddenly, he felt a flicker before his eyes, and Rein vanished from his sight.
In a flash, feeling an anomaly behind him, Edmondo swiftly turned to look.
He saw the eight elites he brought with him, now looking like they were struck by lightning, with unbelieving expressions, eyes wide open, frozen in place.
And in front of their bodies, appeared eight identical figures of that young knight, each wielding a warhamr in various manners.
This scene lasted for less than a second before the eight phantoms disappeared again.
It appeared that all the phantoms converged on the farthest true body.
“Crack! Crack! Crack!”
The sound of bones densely breaking echoed!
The nine elites Edmondo brought with him all seed to perform the disappeared-brain trick!
Almost simultaneously, their foreheads and the upper parts of their heads exploded, white, red, liquid and jelly splattered everywhere, followed by the “plop plop” sounds of heavy objects hitting the ground!
It was Rein executing his Top Secret Technique ‘Shadow Step’ with full power!
At the sa ti.
Nine transparent spiritual bodies quickly erged from the corpses, trailing long tail flas, circled around Rein twice, and were absorbed into his warhamr.
This scene caused Edmondo’s eyelids to twitch violently!
“Such speed!”
“And just now….what happened?”
