This wizard is just unscientific

Chapter 234 Knight Collaboration: One Dies, One Gets Sent! (5K)

Two knights of the Dark Sun!

Inside this Shepherd's Tower, there were actually two knights of the Dark Sun Saint.

This is truly an unexpected delight.

Tucker's previous reconnaissance was conducted using the Soul Veil, in deeper dimensional regions, where its stealth was undeniable, making it impossible for the enemy to detect him.

Moreover, Bevis Twain only announced the specific objectives of the attack just before the operation.

Obviously!

It's impossible for the other side to have laid an ambush and prepared manpower in advance.

Moreover, the ecosystem here is clearly not prepared!

at this time.

Here, a second guardian knight of the Dark Sun Saint appeared.

It was undoubtedly an unexpected bonus.

At this moment, the girl dressed in black leather armor possessed strong Dark Sun characteristics, and even had a slight Dark Sun Saint Child aura.

The information was similar to what Tucker had obtained when he observed Meled.

Of course, another reason for confirming that the other party is a pair of Dark Knights is—the [Reaper] sequence!

Because Tucker had seen the Reaper's supply talent lineage in Wendell.

It can be basically confirmed that this [Steam Harvester] girl is the guardian knight of the Dark Sun Saint.

The Harvester sequence.

This is a peculiar and extraordinary sequence born from the combination of natural disasters and death in "mechanical life".

Harvesting through its own hunting.

It can obtain a certain degree of the other party's life essence and extraordinary essence.

It has certain taboo characteristics.

Moreover, the higher the talent and level of the extraordinary individuals hunted, the more extraordinary origin and life essence they will obtain.

This type of extraordinary individual is able to gradually improve their "extraordinary talent".

It belongs to one of the extremely rare and exceptional sequences within the extraordinary system.

It is said that the "Harvester" sequence, if not handled carefully, can even harvest the ecosystem it has cultivated.

Therefore, it is extremely difficult for the [Harvester] sequence cultivation ecosystem to emerge.

The Harvester sequence.

Among the assassination sequences that Tucker knew, this was one of the top-tier extraordinary sequences.

Many assassins, thieves, scouts, and other extraordinary individuals dream of obtaining the powerful [Reaper] sequence in the future.

But even such a powerful extraordinary sequence.

It also needs to keep up with the times and updates.

This girl absorbed the steam core and created her own [Steam Harvester] sequence.

The sounds of battle emanating from the tower could be heard.

Darkness, like a colossal beast, writhed within the tower.

A young girl, a wizard.

The situation was at a stalemate due to the gunfire.

The gaze of the forbidden object, a deterrent aimed at the soul!

This prevented Cynthia from making any rash moves.

This shot might not be fatal, but it will seriously injure her, which will be troublesome.

Moreover, the wizard who silently crept up behind him was definitely not an ordinary person.

One wrong move and she could perish.

The clash between the strong can sometimes happen in the blink of an eye.

At least until we can figure out the incredible method the other party just used.

She needs to wait for the "right opportunity" to retaliate.

Timing is very important.

As long as you seize that fleeting "opportunity" to avoid the opponent's attack, you might be able to turn the tables instantly.

"Who are you!"

The young girl, Cynthia, spoke slowly.

"Didn't you... already guess?"

The cold voice from behind made Cynthia stiffen slightly.

"blasphemer!"

His hoarse voice trembled slightly.

"Correct answer."

Out of the corner of my eye, I glanced at the light seeping in from outside the window.

If the person behind is the blasphemous Tucker, then who is the angel outside?

This incomprehensible and magical method.

Cynthia suddenly felt her throat was a little dry.

The Guardian of the Holy Crown has given them multiple reminders.

That blasphemer, Tak, is extremely difficult to deal with. If they encounter him, they must be careful and never get too close.

As long as they get close to each other, the other person will notice their presence.

Therefore, they have never dared to go to Lamor's place, lest they disturb His Highness the Holy Son and the Guardian of the Holy Crown's plans.

But I never expected this to happen today.

That blasphemer, Tucker, actually dared to take the initiative to attack.

And it went so deep.

This made him realize how true what Lord Saint Crown had said was.

What made her even more apprehensive was...

She was held hostage by the blasphemous Tucker.

The opponent, relying on the extraordinary firearm fused with forbidden seals, was able to subdue her simply by aiming.

"breathe……"

Cynthia tried to keep her breathing steady while looking for the "opportunity".

Her A-grade extraordinary talent [Timing] is 182%.

This allows her to seize fleeting opportunities and amplify them to the extreme. Within this wonderful range of "timing," she is the absolute ruler, the killer, and the terminator.

Just as Cynthia was constantly searching for the "opportunity".

Cynthia sensed the growing terror brewing in the silence behind her, a terror that sent chills down her spine.

The surrounding world becomes increasingly unreal, even alien.

"The blasphemer Tucker is an S-class extraordinary talent and a wizard with many methods. How dare I try to find an opportunity in front of him?"

As her thoughts raced, Cynthia's heartstrings trembled slightly.

She realized she seemed to have made a huge mistake!

Tucker, seemingly sensing that preparations were nearly complete, finally spoke with a sigh of relief.

Are you looking for the right opportunity?

"Seize that unexpected moment and pull off a stunning comeback."

"That's truly... a very impressive talent!"

Cynthia was filled with horror, which surged like a tidal wave.

Every word Tucker uttered was like a heavy hammer blow, making her soul resound violently.

"If you want an opportunity, I'll give you one."

The world is gently undulating, its veins pulsating and converging.

That instant.

Cynthia sensed that the time had come.

This is the only chance to turn the tide.

Without any hesitation, Cynthia instinctively entered into the [timing].

Cynthia, seizing the opportune moment with her talent, entered a wondrous state.

The flow of time slowed down.

It contains a wondrous rhythm that beats within her heart and steam core.

The patterns of the world around her began to become clear, and fitting into those patterns that contained beauty was the key to her turn the tide.

She dodged the forbidden gun that was aimed at the back of her head almost instantly.

When she followed a strange trajectory to avoid the guns, intending to deliver a fatal blow.

But then they saw the wizard doing the same movements.

The opponent retreated, aiming again, this time at her forehead, aiming straight for the depths of her soul.

Even more surprisingly, a slight smile appeared on the wizard's lips.

A dancer on a knife's edge has already failed the moment they hesitate!

This time, even knowing that a sudden charge into battle might result in defeat.

But Cynthia, seizing the opportunity, displayed an indomitable spirit.

The blade of the short sword, accompanied by the roar of steam, is perfectly transformed into a reaping sickle.

"Bang!"

A tremendous roar followed.

The attack from the Fate Revolver tore a bloody hole in Cynthia's forehead.

The blow made Cynthia's soul tremble, but she did not retreat at all and continued to attack.

The blade was sharp and cold, gleaming with a chilling light.

Tucker isn't the kind of guy who likes to use his defenses to take hits head-on, like the Earth Dragon.

To challenge the enemy's blade with one's own defense is irresponsible.

Engage in close combat with the Reaper sequence, renowned for its speed and agility.

Tucker took a slow, unhurried step back.

But Cynthia's blade was clearly much faster than Tucker's retreat.

Just as Cynthia's blade was about to strike Tucker.

Tucker's retreat had already begun.

At the same time, Tucker's extraordinary technique "Phase Step," developed by combining the supernatural ability "Phase Walk," also gently unfolded.

It almost perfectly matched the trajectory of the falling blade.

Tucker teleported back about two steps.

They perfectly avoided the attack.

"Damn it, it was just a hair's breadth away."

Cynthia's slight frustration at missing her target was fleeting; she continued her charge, following that perfect trajectory.

The missed strike of this one is a prelude to the sharpness of the next one.

The Reaper Sequence ability, [Accumulated Edge], allows her next attack to be even more powerful after she misses.

"Phase Step" is a close-range, agile supernatural ability developed by Tucker by combining the extraordinary supernatural power of "Phase Walk".

Facing those fast, accurate, steady, and ruthless close-quarters combat techniques.

The "phase step" has a short distance and a fast reaction time, making it a perfect response.

In the blink of an eye, one can maneuver in seven or eight directions.

Having the corresponding dodge ability is not enough.

A swift counterattack is also essential. Tucker originally planned to use a combination of Lightshaping Spear and Arcane Shot for a quick counterattack.

But now.

Tucker now has better countermeasures.

As he dodged and weaved, Tucker simultaneously locked onto the target's target with the [Destiny Revolver], perfectly matching the target's trajectory.

The attack actions and phase maneuvers are all performed in perfect synchronization by Tucker.

"Boom!"

A dull, soul-wrenching shot erupted once more.

It struck Cynthia in the head.

The world before my eyes is a blood-red, chaotic, and turbulent place.

Cynthia desperately continued her charge towards the blasphemous Tucker, following the trajectory with incredible force and from an unbelievable angle.

Accompanied by the lingering shadow of Cynthia's perfectly synchronized rhythm.

Tucker's gunshots also rang out in a regular pattern.

The two were completely engaged in a high-speed, close-quarters combat.

The afterimages drew a hazy curtain around them, dazzling the eye.

Cynthia is following the pulse of [timing].

Tucker, on the other hand, relied on his ability [Phase Walk] to maneuver against his opponent within the same dimension of the energy flow.

Pong!

Pong!

Pong!

……

The opponent was fast, but Tucker was even faster.

Each shot contained the power of the sealing barrier, and it penetrated deep into Cynthia's soul.

Previously, Tucker was in a stalemate with the other party.

Coercion is not a waste of time.

Rather, it was for better preparation.

The mobilization of sealing power, the control of the surrounding world, and the preparation of the sealing scroll are all proceeding simultaneously.

It's such a pity that such a "talented" person as the Knight of the Dark Sun died.

Only by capturing them alive can we maximize their use.

The two sides engaged in a high-speed, trembling battle.

During the pursuit, Cynthia was shot twelve or thirteen times.

Tucker had practically turned his head into a plug, and thick blood was being flung out during the high-speed maneuvering, even so.

The other party was still only injured, not fatally.

However, the "life materials" consumed by the other party and the extraordinary state they condensed were ridiculously powerful.

This made Tucker sigh with emotion.

"As expected of the Knight of the Dark Sun, although he is not known for his defensive capabilities."

"But he survived so many bullets to his head; he's got some skills."

And at this moment!

Faced with such a devastating blow, Cynthia, the dancer on the edge of a knife, felt her soul becoming numb, listless, and weary.

What made her most desperate was the power of "timing," which receded like the tide.

Those connections that perfectly intersected with the world are constantly being pulled away.

An indescribable despair and bitterness welled up deep in my heart and instantly filled my thoughts.

Entering the [timing] phase, stepping on the perfect pulse, the blade's edge is in an unprecedentedly wonderful state.

This is the perfect opportunity to turn the tide.

however!

She was completely manipulated and controlled by the blasphemer.

When every attack falls just short.

The slight difference that Cynthia sensed was an insurmountable abyss.

Tucker dodged the attack once again.

It directly activated the sealing power that had been poured into the depths of the opponent's soul.

"World Sealed!"

Tucker continuously uses his steam ecosystem and fragments of the sealing barrier to create a cycle of "Steam World".

The purpose is to be able to control the power of the seal within one's own "world".

Although the sealing power is not strong enough now, it will be sufficient when it is poured into the depths of the other party's soul.

As the blade fell once more.

The world is sealed by the power of the eruption.

Cynthia, already somewhat dazed, only felt the terrifying sealing power erupting from the depths of her soul.

Immediately, it was plunged into deep darkness.

Then, Tucker took out the sealing scroll.

The scroll, activated long ago using the ecological magic network, quickly swept over Cynthia and sealed her within it.

Put the reel back in.

"call……"

Tucker breathed a sigh of relief after successfully making the capture.

"The two knights have already captured one, so we don't need to worry about the second one's life or death."

"in addition……"

Tucker slowly raised his head and looked towards that mysterious dimension.

"Lord Meled, if you abandon your evil ways now, I might spare your life."

"If they dare to put up a stubborn resistance..."

"Believe me, you're going to die a horrible death."

However, Tucker's response was a powerful gaze from the Dark Sun Dimension.

Once Tucker noticed his presence, Meled dropped all pretense and attempted to use the power of the Dark Sun to deeply corrupt Tucker.

Unfortunately, these little tricks were completely ineffective against Tucker.

Feel the gaze of that dark, sun-drenched dimension.

Tucker spread his five fingers out in the air, then suddenly clenched them.

……

"Crackling... Boom..."

Looking at the broken ecological paradise before me.

Within the altar's tiers.

Meled's expression was more severe than ever before.

He was aware of Cynthia's actions.

He even considered using Cynthia as his trump card to turn the tide.

The wizard and swordsman who barged in didn't look very formidable.

He mobilized the power of the tower to help Cynthia conceal her whereabouts to some extent.

The collaboration between the two was absolutely perfect.

but……

I never expected this.

Cynthia's first target.

The seemingly unremarkable fire-breathing wizard, Andre, was actually the imposter Tak in disguise.

I don't know if she was just incredibly lucky or incredibly unlucky.

Cynthia's first match has come to an end.

The glimmer of hope that had just begun to rise was instantly extinguished by the blasphemous Tucker.

If it were just a Pyrrhic victory for the blasphemous Tucker, that would be fine.

What Meled found most unacceptable was...

This is only a third-tier steam wizard, the blasphemer Tak.

In close-quarters combat, which he was not good at, he not only completely suppressed Cynthia.

It was in a brief and rapid outbreak of fierce fighting.

They swiftly destroyed Cynthia's soul and will, sealing it away.

Cynthia was captured alive by the blasphemous Tucker.

He didn't even have a chance to try to save him.

This wizard's close-combat abilities are truly astonishing.

Prior to this, he also knew that "Andrei" was extremely skilled in fire-based techniques.

The blasphemer Tak, who fled in panic from the city-state of Lamor.

Nowadays, they already possess so many incredible abilities and methods.

His gaze swept over the ever-growing angels and ancient stars outside.

He turned around and examined the three gates of the realm that he had tried many times to open but could not open at all.

Meled's heart sank to its deepest depths.

"Rumble..."

At the top of the tower, intense battle fluctuations once again emanated.

The female knight was working with the shadow steam wizard Bevis Twain.

He was engaged in a fierce battle with his fifth-tier core spirit beast.

Meled could already sense that his two fifth-tier core spirit beasts were almost at their limit.

Even the ordinary corrupt officials on guard duty outside were being pulled around by that steam train.

Those foolish things, if left unchecked, will simply become foolish to death.

Most importantly, the blasphemers and swordsmen are searching for his whereabouts inside.

As a shepherd, one is adept at controlling the shepherding of both the soul and the ecosystem.

He is particularly skilled in controlling souls.

But for direct combat between superhumans.

His combat ability is not top-notch.

For herders, the "core shepherd spirit" is their greatest fighting force.

But at this moment, his "core spirit beast" was being brutally killed.

The mysterious ancient stars, in angelic form, limited his most powerful technique, "Dark Sun Ecology."

Faced with the aggressive and forceful attack of the blasphemer Tucker.

Meled knew that by putting up a fight, he could live a little longer.

Once the thought of escaping the tower took hold...

The moment I stepped out, I was about to be arrested.

Regardless of whether it was the Shadow Steam Wizard Bevis Twain.

Or it was the blasphemer, Tucker.

Or perhaps, the superhuman below with dual sequences.

Neither of them are easy to deal with.

Knowing the outcome vaguely, Meled took a deep breath and quickly went to the table.

He took out a snow-white quill pen, dipped it in dark magic ink, and after a moment's thought, quickly wrote down his thoughts.

"The blasphemer Tucker has descended, with his angelic lineage and the terrible ancient stars."

Cynthia was captured in despair during her resistance!

She was no match for the blasphemer.

And I, too, am about to perish.

My great holy son, before your legendary wings are fully formed, please do not resist it!

The horrors of blasphemers are far beyond your imagination.

—Mered Kagures!

After writing, seal it with a magic envelope.

Meled went to the window.

And then suddenly the magical window of the magical house was pulled open.

The magical letter in his hand rapidly rose and burned under the dim sunlight.

Meanwhile, Meled gazed upon the angels and the ancient stars in that final scene.

He spared no effort in exposing himself and making the most of the characteristics of the lower sequence to provide the great Son with more useful information.
