Chapter 316 The Most Precious Legacy of the Two Great Families
Beaujolais Mountains.
As Leon said, his magic efficiency is extremely poor. If he were facing someone of the same level or even stronger, he would likely be crushed by the opponent before he could even unleash the "Twelve Swords".
However, after the destruction of Zeus and Hera's Families, only two LV.7s remain in the world today.
Even the "fierce one" Ota, at most, is on par with him; no one is above them!
Therefore, Leon can easily unleash magic.
Upon learning the specific effects of Leon's magic, the girls of the clan became serious. To defeat him, the best course of action was before the magic amplification reached its maximum, that is, before all eleven of their weapons were destroyed!
"Defeat him!"
A mad smile crept across Roy's lips.
The Astrea Familia and the school district have no animosity; on the contrary, they have a very good relationship. Roy saved students from the school district, and when Tione and Tiona were harassed by the Kali Familia, it was people from the school district who discovered this and relayed the information to Astrea.
And then there's Lefia, who's about to join the Familia.
The large underground elevator that the guild and the city hoped to build was far less important to Roy and the Astrea Familia than they had imagined.
Roy led the Astrea Familia into this conflict with only one purpose.
Consume the LV.7 super experience pack from Leon Wadenberg to boost everyone's stats as much as possible, and even accomplish great feats and level up!
Leon also hoped to use this opportunity to break through to S-rank, so the two sides were in complete agreement.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!
In the center of the battlefield, the roar continued as Roy, Liu, Tione, and Tiona joined forces to launch a fierce and relentless attack on Leon!
Five figures, moving faster than the visual senses could capture, flashed, intersected, separated, and collided rapidly across the battlefield, leaving behind countless blurry afterimages!
Strength, speed, and skill reach their limits; the chilling glint of blades and the sharp shadows of swords weave together an impenetrable, deadly net of light!
Leon cautiously dealt with the four men's attacks.
Clang!
The sharp weapons clashed, producing a series of crisp, metallic clangs, as dense as a torrential downpour striking sheet metal. The sounds were sharp, piercing, and deafening, leaving all five men with wounds of varying degrees.
"—Light of Thor!" As Cassandra finished speaking, a verdant light appeared on Roy and the others, healing their wounds.
In the heat of battle where every second counts, there's no time to drink potions; Cassandra's magic is the only way for Roy and the others to receive healing.
In contrast, Leon's wounds continued to increase.
Normally, the strategy for defeating the floor boss is to slowly whittle down the BOSS's health until it reaches the kill threshold, then use magic to finish it off in one go. But when dealing with Leon, you have to be quick, even if it means trading blows!
Daphne and Anya acted like two guardian deities, protecting Cassandra, the team's perpetual sustain champion.
Leon naturally wanted to deal with the healer first, but he was dragged down in the mud by Roy and his three companions.
Lily observed the battle. Roy, who was bearing most of the pressure head-on, had no energy left to command. This responsibility fell to her. Standing outside the situation, she had a more comprehensive view and would speak up from time to time to remind Roy and the others.
Snap—Bang!
The fifth trial sword in Leon's hand shattered. With the powerful amplification of magic, his basic ability value was improved, approaching the S-rank of 999.
Golden light from the lion converged between Leon's hands, forming two short swords with barbs.
That is, the sixth test of the sword!
"—The Wind of Light!"
Ryu, who was proficient in parallel chanting, was the first to unleash magic. His immense magical power condensed into hundreds of emerald green orbs of light, which floated in mid-air and illuminated the surroundings.
Roy, Tiony, and Tiona distanced themselves from each other.
Leon also wanted to dodge, and even went towards Roy, trying to hold Roy back and make Liu hesitate to act.
However, he clearly underestimated Ryu's skill in manipulating magic. Under Ryu's control, countless emerald green orbs traced a path in the air like venomous snakes, cleverly avoiding Roy and his companions.
call out!
A large number of emerald green orbs filled Leon's field of vision.
Upon seeing this, Leon, along with the gods and adventurers watching from Orario, had to exclaim in amazement. Although the power of the Wind of Light was not quite the same as true wide-area magic, its accuracy was second to none!
There will absolutely be no situation where teammates are accidentally injured!
Who wouldn't want such a reliable comrade-in-arms! The gods and all the major clans looked on with envy and jealousy.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!
The violent bombing was a frenzied outburst!
The flames blazed brightly, and the earth beneath our feet trembled as if being trampled by a giant god, with huge craters blasted into the solid rock.
Upon closer inspection, Leon stood at the epicenter of the explosion, his two short swords creating a dense, impenetrable array of afterimages, their intertwined light forming a defense with no blind spots.
The emerald green orb was sliced into countless fragments upon contact with the deadly sword net, flying everywhere in all directions with erratic trajectories!
Rumble!
The area within a radius of several hundred meters became even more chaotic and dilapidated, with billowing smoke and dust obscuring half the sky!
Even without the full magical amplification, Leon's strength should not be underestimated.
Strength and Precision Gauntlets: Highly enhances Strength attribute!
Rebellious Heretic: Highly enhances durability and comes with a Mindful effect, greatly enhancing Strength and Agility based on the level of rage!
The two skills further enhanced Leon's strength and durability, subtly pushing him past the limits of LV.7.
Bang!
Blocking Ryu's radiant wind, Leon's Sixth Trial Sword shattered, and the light converged once more, forming a slender Far Eastern katana.
It's already the seventh trial of the sword!
As Leon clashed head-on with the winds of light, the surging power within him inevitably caused a brief momentary opening, which Roy keenly seized upon.
Roy's eyes flashed with a cold light, and a shockwave exploded beneath his feet as he launched a sudden attack. The cold light of the elven holy sword seemed to pierce through the heavens and earth as it hurtled towards Leon.
Leon's breath hitched, and he quickly raised his longsword to parry, sparks flying between them.
But Roy's attack was just a feint.
"Burning the Heavens!"
A deep sound rang out, and the elven holy sword in Roy's hand was instantly ignited, drawing in the surrounding magic energy. The raging magic energy transformed into countless torrents, surging wildly into the sword and erupting in crimson flames.
The flame dragon let out a deafening roar.
boom!
At close range, the raging flames, carrying the terrifying power to incinerate everything, surged forward, forming a destructive sea of fire that instantly engulfed Leon.
The attacks are far from over!
It's sizzling!It's sizzling!
A piercing crackling of electricity rang out! Blinding golden lightning surged from Roy's palm, and without the slightest pause, he thrust his palm forward.
Two extremely concentrated bolts of destructive lightning, while the wildly dancing golden serpents moved silently, secretly passing through the churning sea of fire, heading straight for Leon.
Such a fierce attack, anyone who didn't know better would think they had some deep-seated grudge. Leon smiled wryly.
boom!
Leon swung his sword, and lightning clashed violently with the blade, unleashing blinding sparks and turbulent energy!
A devastating electric current surged through his body in an instant, bringing intense numbness and burning pain. Leon groaned, his body trembled violently, and he staggered backward.
Faced with Roy and his group's relentless barrage of deadly attacks, even someone as strong as Leon was in a sorry state.
In a one-on-one fight, apart from Roy, none of the Astrea Familia members could last ten rounds against Leon.
The difference between LV.7 and LV.6 is like an insurmountable chasm!
However, with perfect teamwork, Roy and his three companions exerted a near-multiplicative effect in combat, enough to directly confront a dozen or so disorganized LV.6 adventurers!
Cassandra's treatment was continuous.
Anya's powerful negative magic was poised to be unleashed, all of which was distracting Leon.
A group of ants, working together in close coordination, wove a massive web to strangle a lion!
Orario was deathly silent. Gods and adventurers stared in disbelief at the scene in the Mirror of God. Before this, the Astrea Familia had displayed overwhelming power over the Ishtar Familia and Roy's powerful individual abilities—even their teamwork in defeating monsters was so perfect.
Even the Freya Familia and the Loki Familia have their flaws to varying degrees. The former is riddled with factions, making unity difficult, while the latter's members each have their own ideas, and Finn wants to revive his race—
In comparison, the Astrea Familia are practically all-around warriors with no weaknesses!
The transition between offense and defense is as fast as lightning!
Each breath contained dozens of dangerous confrontations, and the frequency of the figures flashing was so high that it was suffocating!
In the blink of an eye, hundreds of rounds had passed!
Leon suffered many more wounds.
But thanks to Roy and his group's fierce attack, the sixth to eighth trials of the sword were destroyed, and his overall development ability and all skills were enhanced. His basic abilities such as strength, endurance, and agility were also enhanced!
Leon's stats have broken through to SS level!
Having fought to this point, Roy looked at Leon with a hint of surprise. No wonder he grew up being beaten up by Zeus and Hera's family every day.
With dwarven blood, its durability is maxed out!
The awakened magic originates from the deepest thoughts within. Leon's "Round Table Flame" gathers different characteristics in each weapon, corresponding to a member of the former Zeus and Hera Familia.
Leon learned different skills from those people and became a master of all weaponry!
In a sense, Leon's ability to gain an amplification was due to the destruction of his manifested weaponry, which could also be seen as a curse, corresponding to the final fate of those two great clans.
"call!"
Leon exhaled a heavy breath, his body covered in wounds. Compared to his miserable state, Roy was able to receive treatment. If things continued like this, he definitely wouldn't survive until the ninth, tenth, and eleventh trials when the sword shattered.
Despite Roy and his team's fierce fighting, they actually had a lot of trump cards up their sleeves, ready to take him down in one fell swoop.
There's no time to hide our shortcomings!
And he hoped Roy could learn this trick too.
Leon warned, "Roy, watch out!"
Roy's expression turned serious. Was it coming? The techniques left behind by the two great clans.
"Ryu, Tione, Tiona, back off! Daphne, protect Cassandra and Lily! Anya, use magic!" Roy spoke rapidly.
Upon hearing this, the girls looked surprised, but without hesitation, they acted according to Roy's instructions.
call out!
The next moment, the ancient longsword in Leon's hand burst forth with a pure and sacred white light, and the blade transformed into a blurry afterimage, slashing out a white sword aura that was condensed to the extreme!
It appeared out of nowhere without any warning!
There was no chanting! Apart from the gods who already knew and the seasoned adventurers, most people who saw this scene widened their eyes and looked incredulous.
Sizzle—!
Wherever the sword energy passed, the hard earth was shattered like fragile paper, and a huge, bottomless ravine with smooth, mirror-like edges tore through the earth, spreading forward at a speed beyond comprehension.
The rubble didn't even have a chance to fly before it was directly annihilated into dust by the terrifying power contained in the sword energy.
The speed was unbelievably fast!
Roy's expression also changed slightly. This sword strike made him feel a long-lost, deadly threat!
Bang!
Roy used his legs to propel himself forward like a leopard, narrowly avoiding the astonishing sword energy.
Looking back.
The sharp white sword energy tore open a huge crack more than a kilometer long and nearly a hundred meters wide, leaving a hideous mark on the earth like an inlay.
Fortunately, Leon's reminder allowed Roy to create distance in time, giving him enough time to react. Otherwise, at close range, the suddenness of this move would have been comparable to his uncastable magic, but with even greater power.
He used a spell without chanting to hit Leon several times, but the opponent didn't use that same sudden attack.
The other party's chivalrous demeanor made Roy feel ashamed.
The terrifying power also stunned the clan girl, who stared blankly at the long crack.
"What is that?"
Not only the girls of the Familia, but many adventurers in Orario stared wide-eyed, feeling their scalps tingle.
The Hall of Twilight.
Finn licked his thumb, his eyes filled with apprehension. "Leon, you've truly mastered that move."
"Yes, it's a skill that even we can't learn!" Grace exclaimed with deep emotion.
Rivera pursed her lips, her jewel-like emerald green eyes fixed on Roy in the mirror, a hint of tender worry surfacing deep within them.
Roy whispered, "Fade!"
A hint of surprise appeared on Leon's face as he looked at Roy. "I didn't expect you to know this move."
"I've only heard of it, this is the first time I've seen it," Roy said. The afterimage is not a skill or magic, but a very advanced technique developed by high-level adventurers of the Zeus and Hera Familia. It uses mental power to mobilize the surrounding magic energy to form a ranged slash!
It is mainly used by warriors who do not have ranged attacks. Its advantages are that it has no casting time and no cooldown, and its power is enormous, comparable to a mage's long-winded spell!
The downside is that it's extremely difficult to learn!
Furthermore, its power depends on the user's skill level; the stronger the user, the more powerful it becomes, while it's useless for novices.
This move is enough to suffocate all mages! The magic they painstakingly chanted and released was no match for a casual sword strike from their opponent.
When the members of Zeus and Hera's Familia used this move, countless geniuses were driven to despair.
But the difficulty of learning "Afterglow" is beyond imagination!
Even among Zeus and Hera's retinue, very few could master this skill.
Now only Leon and Ota have learned it.
It was something Ota and Leon learned from each other after being beaten by members of the two major clans for over twenty years.
To master the "Afterglow" technique, aside from factors like level and experience, there are two essential conditions: first, you must be a warrior who uses slashing weapons like swords or longswords; second, you must possess enhancement magic or skills!
Ota's magic "Hildis Veni" only enhances the weapon he wields, but with the help of the "Afterglow" technique, he can unleash a devastating sword aura that can instantly destroy a large area in the distance.
Leon was even more outrageous!
Any of the twelve magical swords can be used to activate the ultimate technique "Residual Light".
Therefore, the two LV.7s of this era have different focuses. Ota has mastered "ultimate defense and durability", and can fight continuously at high intensity for more than ten days!
Leon has mastered the "ultimate attack"!
With a gentle swipe, one can unleash sword energy, its power surpassing that of long-winded spells!
The knight's domineering nature lies in his mastery of slashing techniques, which is also the true reason why he is hailed as a "hero of our time." He inherits the strongest moves left behind by Zeus and Hera's family, and the remaining brilliance of those moves.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
This battlefield has been dominated by the "Residual Light" sword energy. As Leon continues to swing his sword, countless cold and refined white sword energies crisscross and tear the earth apart.
The white sword energy stretched endlessly, never ceasing!
Roy, Liu, Tione, and Tiona were forced to retreat in a straight line. The intertwined white sword energy was dense and swift. Every dodge was fraught with danger. The chilling sensation of the sword energy brushing past them stung their skin, and the dissipated sharpness could even cut through first-level armor!
Forced to retreat repeatedly by the white sword energy, not only was launching an effective attack impossible, but even stabilizing his position and getting within a hundred meters of Leon became a luxury.
As Leon swung his sword, his gaze was fixed on Roy, like a serious teacher wanting to impart his knowledge to him.
This move can only be understood intuitively, not explained in words.
Roy's eyes never left Leon, deeply imprinting the other's movements into his mind, using the magic affinity provided by his elven bloodline, as well as his Enlightenment Fruit, Intuition, and other abilities to sense the other's skills.
