Magic Industrial Age

New God Calendar, December 8th, 313.

Ruins of Lion Castle.

Loy casually found a relatively flat spot, and thrust the Silver Angel rapier, sheath and all, into the ground.

He then began to stretch and loosen his body beside it.

His body twisted in large arcs, sounding like popping beans, as if he had no bones.

He jumped quickly and repeatedly, creating a series of afterimages, to activate his leg muscles.

Then, using his waist and abdomen, he threw swift punches, smashing out ripples in the air, activating his core strength.

This was the eleventh day since starting the [Golden Bone] technique. With the initial bone transformation complete, Loy could finally get out of bed and couldn't stand to stay there any longer.

He put on his clothes, grabbed his weapon, and prepared to find a place to test his current strength.

Around Brussels, this castle ruin was close by, and there were rumors of soul-reaping ghosts, so almost no one dared to come!

As Loy warmed up his body, he immediately noticed the changes.

The qualitative change in his bones brought about by [Golden Bone] couldn't be tested directly; after all, he couldn't exactly smash his bones against a weapon.

If he really did that, he'd be too crazy!

However, the changes it brought were obvious.

The human body is ultimately supported by bones. Although force is mainly generated by muscles and fascia, the bones bear the brunt of the power, shocks, and backlash.

At this moment, Loy's most significant feeling was that he seemed to have opened some kind of limiter!

The human body has self-imposed limitations, existing in the genes, invisible and intangible, but truly present. Its function is to restrict one's own performance.

On the surface, this thing seems undesirable, because with it, you can't fully break through limits and reach higher, faster, and stronger levels.

But in reality, it's precisely because of it that you are constantly reminded of where the limit is, and you can't play too recklessly, otherwise you'll directly break your body!

But now, with the completion of [Golden Bone], his most obvious feeling was that this 'restriction,' this inexplicable restraint from the genes, had been lifted.

Or, more accurately, the upper limit had been raised by a large margin.

Before, it might have been only three or four meters high, and he would hit it with a jump, but now it's thirty or forty meters high, and there's much more space to use.

As he moved his body, a smile unconsciously grew on Loy's face, and he became even more delighted.

Over there, Oliveira, Iron Knight Phil, and Flame Sword Saint Otto watched and couldn't help but mutter and talk in low voices.

Otto: "Speaking of which, did Lord Earl come here just to stretch his muscles?"

Iron Knight Phil rolled his eyes at him and said, "What? Is that not allowed!"

"What I mean is, if you want to move your body, you can do it in the Mage Tower.

There is a special training ground there, I've been there and tried it. Under the magical barrier, you can even quantify the attack power...

It doesn't seem worth running so far, does it?"

"Moreover, the weather today is so windy!"

The Flower Festival in December is the coldest time of the year in this land.

Especially today, the sky is covered with dark clouds, and the cold wind is biting, as if a winter rain is about to come.

"You have a point!"

Iron Knight Phil nodded in agreement and even asked in a serious manner, "But why did Lord Earl have to come?"

As he spoke, the two of them turned their heads together and looked at Oliveira, saying nothing, but seeming to say everything.

Oliveira naturally heard it, and he couldn't help but twitch his lips, really not wanting to pay attention to these two.

Fourth-Order Calamity, it sounds high-end, but that's only for outsiders.

If you really have the same strength and join their circle, you will find... that all the previous fantasies have been shattered.

They are actually people too, with different personalities. Some are rigid, some are playful; some have gloomy personalities, some are cheerful.

For example, Flame Sword Saint Otto is a personality who is more emotional than rational, and is also careless, with clear grudges.

Back then, Loy came all the way from Oakland City, triggering the Calamity War, and the first to protect Loy was him.

Iron Knight Phil is more stable and thinks more, calculating gains and losses, but he trusts Flame Sword Saint Otto extremely.

The two are not inseparable, but they have a very high tacit understanding, and, whenever there is a choice, they always stand on the same line.

At this time, these two wanted to get something out of Oliveira's mouth with a few words.

But the problem is, Oliveira doesn't know either!

He is not a talkative person. He does whatever Loy tells him to do, and he never asks more questions.

However, he couldn't lose face, so he naturally said, "Just watch and you'll know!"

Phil and Otto both curled their lips, but as if in response to Oliveira's words, Loy finally finished his warm-up at this moment.

He stood in front of the Silver Angel rapier, slowly straightened his body, and a surging aura soared into the sky, the pervasive killing intent seeming to make the cold wind between heaven and earth stand still.

He slowly raised his head, his eyes slightly narrowed, looked towards the sky, and then, seemed to unlock his own shackles one by one.

Secret Holy Technique, [God's Sigh · Behemoth Heartbeat], Activate!

Boom boom boom boom!

A huge heartbeat, like a drum, came, with Loy as the center, the air rippled in waves, constantly expanding outwards.

Expanding along with it was the golden-red battle qi, like a flood, like a wave, like a tornado, endless.

Secret Holy Technique, [God's Sigh, Dragon Might Bloom], Activate!

A huge pressure condensed, as if a strange behemoth had spied on this place, only tearing open a small gap, casting its gaze.

Thus, the vast aura radiated outwards, and wherever it passed, everything was silent, even breathing and heartbeat seemed to be frightened to stop.

Oliveira was still okay, he knew more about Loy's details, but Phil and Otto's expressions were frozen on their faces.

Secret Holy Technique, [Lion King's Peerage], Activate!

Mysterious substances were rapidly secreted, integrated into the blood, and accompanied by the heartbeat like a drum, the huge battle qi was rapidly transported and accumulated.

The pressure on the blood vessels from this abnormal gathering of battle qi in a short period of time can be imagined.

But at this moment, Loy's blood vessels were like the most resilient rubber, his blue veins throbbing, but there was no sign of rupture.

Externally, the golden-red battle qi around Loy seemed to have become countless times more brilliant and heavy in an instant, to the point that no one dared to look directly at it.

Secret Holy Technique, [Lehmann's Ear], Activate!

Heaven and earth seemed to suddenly become silent, all the subtle, faint movements from the sky and the earth, the sounds emitted, were all captured by Loy's ears.

It seemed that with the integration of the power of faith and the improvement of the progress of Lehmann's Ear's fusion, Loy also discovered.

These ears seemed to be able to hear sounds not only propagated by air vibrations, but also including unknown mediums.

Otherwise, it would not be qualified to listen to the sound of the world!

As for the Secret Holy Technique, [Golden Bone], it had already been activated!

Otherwise, Loy would not have been qualified to activate so many Holy Techniques at the same time. Even if he himself was willing, his body would not be able to withstand it!

But now, he could.

In fact, it was only a dozen breaths, Loy's eyes suddenly opened, and the breath he exhaled shot out like an arrow.

Then, his figure seemed to move.

Because, in the void, there were overlapping phantoms, making the actions of drawing the sword, shaking, gathering battle qi, and then slashing out a sword.

But it seemed that it was just a phantom. Looking again, Loy was already standing steadily on the ground, without even changing his posture.

Only, he already had a rapier in his hand.

The Inheritance-level Silver Angel rapier was vibrating violently at this time, as if it was somewhat overwhelmed, or like a dragon roaring with joy.

Circles of Mach rings and golden-red battle qi surrounded it, and it was unknown when they had clung to it.

Of course, the most amazing thing was to look at the sky!

There, there was already a crescent-shaped golden-red battle qi slash, crossing an unknown distance, splitting the dark clouds.

Thus, a winding crack extended from this end of the field of vision to the other end of the field of vision, unknown how far and long.

Even more, the bright sunlight shone through this gap onto the earth and onto Loy.

The rapier returned to its sheath, and Loy stood with his hands behind his back again, looking up at the sky.

Feeling the power of this sword, he couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth, but the aura around him was constantly weakening and converging until it returned to calm.

At this moment, he could already be sure that, compared to the auxiliary effect of [Lehmann's Ear], the improvement of his frontal combat power from this [Golden Bone] was quite exaggerated.

However, Loy was calm, but the shock on Iron Knight Phil and Flame Sword Saint Otto's faces could no longer be concealed.

Their open mouths seemed to be able to swallow two duck eggs!

Laymen watch the excitement, but experts watch the doorway. Loy's battle qi slash, whether it was the amount of battle qi that burst out in an instant, the degree of battle qi solidification, or the effective killing distance of battle qi, had already exceeded the limit that a Fourth-Order Calamity could reach.

If such a sword was really slashed out in the Mage Tower, the Mechanical Mage Tower, which had been completed for less than a year, would have a big hole!

And this was the reason why Loy had to run so far.

If the Mage Tower was damaged, Lilia's bed would probably be inaccessible.

In a daze, they saw Loya move again, walking in front of them, grinning, and asking, "Gentlemen, is this sword of mine enough to fight a Legend?"

Fight a Legend?

At that moment, the Iron Knight Phil and the Flame Sword Saint Otto almost rolled their eyes to the heavens.

The way he said it made it sound like they had actually fought a Legend before!
