A man among dragons, building a mysterious ancient church.

Chapter 238 Word of Power: Nine Infants, Angers really doesn't understand it.

Balmongk, according to legend, is the holy sword passed down from Siegfried, the dragon-slaying hero.

In reality, only the successive heads of the Siegfried family knew that their ancestor Siegfried had first killed a second-generation creature, and then used the materials from that creature to invite an ancient alchemist to forge this weapon.

It was Siegfried's descendants who spent the savings of several generations to invite many alchemy masters to inscribe a large number of alchemical matrices, recreating the ritual of their ancestor slaying the dragon and bathing in its blood, thus thoroughly strengthening this dragon blood weapon.

Legend has it that after Siegfried slayed a dragon, he bathed in its blood and became invincible. However, his back was partially obscured by leaves when he bathed in the blood, which created a fatal weakness.

Balmonk possesses such magical power that it can help the swordsman reduce almost 80% of the damage from the front, but there is no protection from behind.

With this amazing damage reduction ability, Sigurd's successor faced the wind from the Dragon Slayer Platform head-on!

Through the efforts of generations of Siegfried, they roared in defiance in the face of the oncoming sword winds and snow.

The collision between the wind and the Sword of Glory was not fierce, nor was there any booming explosion. In the end, it was just the sword wind that Nuwa cleaved, rather than a real collision.

The immense sword wind was continuously weakened by Balmonk, and its initial appearance at Balmonk was incredibly grand.

When they scraped down to the hilt of Balmunk's sword, only the last 20% remained.

The last 20% of the sword wind could no longer be reduced, and it slammed into Sigurd with frenzied fury.

Sigurd was not unscathed. The sword was weakened from the tip to the hilt. His hand was split open, and the blood that had just flowed from the corner of his mouth froze into blood crystals. His shining golden eyes had dimmed, but he still managed to block the sword in the end.

As the snowstorm blanketed the area, the all-black convoy was instantly transformed into a pristine white caravan. The Beowulf family seized the opportunity to strike, determined not to let Nuwa remain so carefree.

"Good! This is more interesting! Finally, we have some cards to play!"

Nuwa had certainly heard of Balmunk's holy sword, and she wanted to see if Siegfried's weapon could defeat the Zhou family's Dragon-Slaying Platform!

"Great True Word Technique - Nine-Headed Serpent!"

The ice surface cracked, the underground water network burst, and there was no time to address the water supply issues of nearby residents. Water columns formed by tap water rose from the ground like angry dragons climbing a waterfall!

One, two, three! They instantly condensed into ice and then thawed in an instant, flashing back and forth between liquid and solid states, dancing gracefully, soaring behind Nuwa!
It resembles the mysterious guardian spirit of Nuwa, or perhaps the long tail that Nuwa suddenly grew.

Word of Power: Nine-Headed Serpent?! Fingel stared intently at the water-ice dragon at close range, the arcane master fully activating his analysis.

It is very likely that this very power of speech, used by Odin, wiped out their Kassel diving team on the seabed of the Greenland ice sea!

Upon seeing this Word of Power again, Fingel felt extremely conflicted.

Compared to Fingel's lament, the Secret Party members felt only fear. Sigurd's successor roared that he couldn't hold on any longer, even the holy sword Balmonk had its limits.

Elizabeth and Charlotte began to combine and inscribe the alchemical matrix, while the Beowulf family used all their alchemical tools in an attempt to withstand the attack.

Four, five, six, seven, eight, nine! Countless underground water supply networks have burst, all actively responding to the call from Duanlongtai.

Legend has it that in the ancient times of this land, there once lived a vicious dragon that roamed the fierce waters of the Northern Di. Each time it roared, it would let out a shrill cry like an infant. With one cry, the fierce waters would freeze; with another cry, the fierce waters would instantly turn into a raging river of fire.

The Great True Word Technique - Nine Infants, this is the true power of the Dragon Severing Platform, a power that no hybrid can resist!
Although the Dragon Slayer Platform is just a broken sword, the living dragon soul inside is its strongest power. The Dragon Slayer Platform never relies on the actual broken blade to harm its enemies.

The living dragon soul inside will lend the power of the Word of Power, Nine-Headed Serpent, to the sword wielder, and even actively help them command the elements, helping to break the shackles of the limited range of the hybrid's Word of Power, and summoning tides over a vast area.

Nine dragons arrived together, swirling and roaring around Nuwa, and the Dragon-Slaying Platform was cleaved down a second time amidst the embrace of the nine dragons.

Every space that a water dragon passes through is instantly frozen, spreading an extreme cold far more severe than that of Nuwa herself, the Ice Emperor.

The extreme cold even froze the hands and feet of Sigurd and the Beowulf family half-bloods, rendering them unable to move and forcing them to watch helplessly as the Nine-Headed Serpent and the Nine Dragons descended!

At the crucial moment, the Beowulf family heir and Elizabeth finally stopped hiding their trump cards and jointly revealed some kind of alchemical artifact!
The folded space was completely broken open, and two top-tier third-generation dragons, each over twenty meters long and nearly at the level of a second-generation species, appeared in mid-air!
The Beowulf family has insisted on feeding newborns with dragon blood for so many years, which means they must have been raising a pure-blooded dragon. Otherwise, how could they obtain dragon blood so consistently?

As for the Laurent family, as the monopolistic head of the European mining industry, they can always find dragons deep in certain mines, and then use a secret technique similar to that of the Tamoan family in South America to imprison the dragons for their own use.

Before the two dragons could even display their power, they were struck by the nine dragons, and countless water droplets exploded in the sky before instantly freezing.

Two enormous ice sculptures suddenly appeared in the sky, and before they could even land, even larger flames began to illuminate the entire area.

All the ice, under the subsequent action of Jiuying, turned into raging fire, burning the two frozen dragons.

Two enormous fireballs descended from the sky, but there was no sign of the dragons struggling within, nor any sound of their roars. It was as if they had lost consciousness the instant they were frozen by the Nine-Headed Serpent's extreme cold.

Unable to be defeated by human strength, the Nine-Headed Serpent vanished at the cost of the lives of two dragons.

The shockwaves and residual flames from the dragons landing were all blocked by Elizabeth and Charlotte's alchemical matrix, as well as Beowulf's alchemical artifacts.

After disappearing without a trace, Angers, like a venomous snake, finally revealed his fangs from the darkness.

Taking advantage of the moment when Nuwa unleashed the Word of Power: Nine-Headed Serpent and was too busy to recover her energy, and the Dragon-Slaying Platform needed a long time to heal, the Broken Blade returned!

“It’s not gentlemanly to ambush a beautiful girl in secret, Principal Angers.”

Fingel casually conjured a flaming longsword and blocked Angers' path.

“Heh, I know Nuwa’s age better than you do. She can hardly be considered a young girl anymore. Your Word of Power is also Time Zero?” Angers glanced at the flaming longsword, then looked at Fingel, who could keep up with his speed, completely puzzled.

How did the Old Church manage to do that? Zero time and control of flames—this is even more outrageous than Fingel's Word of Power Alchemy.

Given that Norton, the Fire King, joined the Church of the Old Ones, could this flaming longsword be some kind of authority or means for Norton?

The Dragon King indeed has many secrets they don't know!
Finger, of course, would not reveal the answer; essentially, his time velocity was zero, making him far inferior to Angers.

Logically, he shouldn't be faster than Angers, let alone be able to stop Angers.

Fortunately, he had spent his contribution points to exchange for an extraordinary research item—the Desire Brooch.

The extraordinary ability of this ornament is simple: it can roughly sense the emotions, desires, and malice of others, and incite these emotions and desires by instigating them.

The negative effect is that the wearer is prone to extreme emotions and is more easily persuaded.

Fingel originally intended to use it for research, hoping to learn about this kind of 'perceiving emotions'.

To put it bluntly, murderous intent is also a form of malice. The brooch simply allowed Fingel to spot Angers earlier, giving him more time to react and intercept him.

Seeing that his sneak attack had failed, Angers simply stopped hiding and slashed at Nuwa from all directions with his folding knife!
He was very confident that even if the hybrid opposite him also had Time Zero, his speed would definitely not be as fast as his! He had an unparalleled control over Time Zero!

Fingel relied on his sense of killing intent to repeatedly anticipate and block Angers' folding knife.

"Phew, Mr. Bai, don't worry about me!" Nuwa was quite exhausted.

Although the Sequence 7 Weapon Master Potion she had previously taken could effectively reduce the negative effects of the equipment.

However, there is a limit. The power of the Nine-Headed Serpent that burst forth from the Dragon-Slaying Platform was too much to handle, almost draining all of Nuwa's power and spirituality. Even with the abilities of a weapon master, it was too much to bear.

Her speech was intermittent, and the radiant armor on her body was slowly dissipating into light. In this state, there was no need for Fingel to guard her.

Nuwa was well aware of the principle that prolonged defense inevitably leads to loss.

Fingel also remembered the extraordinary items that Nuwa possessed, so he stepped back and stopped blocking her way.

When Angers arrived, he was constantly watching Norma's live stream on his phone and knew that Nuwa had a trick called Mirror Substitute.

The fact that he dared to provoke her like that means that Stand ability must still be useful. But while Angers memorized the code name "White Tower," he still used a folding knife to slit Nuwa's throat.

Angers wanted to use Time Zero to get a closer look at the mirror double and see exactly how it worked.

Nuwa was completely unfazed by Angre, and maintained a sarcastic and mocking tone at all times.

Even though Angers slit her throat in the Zero Time Realm, Nuwa's mockery remained unchanged for so long that Angers became unusually agitated before Nuwa's figure slowly disappeared.

A mirror with knife marks appeared in front of Angers, while Nuwa inexplicably returned to the Zhou family.

I can't understand it at all. Angers has traveled all over the world for so many years. His knowledge level may not be as high as his old friend Nicolas, but he can still be described as well-traveled and knowledgeable.

However, he just couldn't see through the principle of the mirror substitute. Let alone analyze it, he even had difficulty understanding it, as it was completely beyond his knowledge.

What exactly is this array pattern that doesn't involve elements, words of power, or alchemical tools?
What kind of organization is the Old Church? How can it possess so many mysterious abilities that have never been seen before?
