Chapter 421 Half-Human?
Chapter 421 Half-Human?
The River Dragon's Eye has two Active Skills.
They are the Anti-Curse Field and Summon Flood. These two are already powerful skills even if Vincent hadn't enhanced the item. Especially the Summon Flood that could easily rival a Grand Magus' Tier 3 Fusion Art.
After it became a +10 item, however, it became even more powerful to the point that he can't test it out since it could really change the terrain and affect the ecosystem…
This is the power of an Enhanced Version of a Mythical Beast's attack after all.
The Vera City might be affected by the sudden flood but he has no other choice since he can't think of another item that would help him quickly resolve this issue…
'Activate…'
Vincent poured his Pseudo-Celestial Energy into the Left Eye… As soon as his mind connected the Mana Arts' Sequence inside the Eye, he immediately found the Summon Flood and triggered it in the direction he wanted…
'Summon Flood…'
Soon, a huge wave of water formed in front of him as it started surging to the origin of the pillar of fire…
Whooosshhh!
Many citizens started worrying after seeing the gushing flood. They immediately found a place to hold on to make sure that they won't get swept away… Almost all of them don't know how to swim after all. It would be such a shame to die by drowning in this current war.
Crash! Crash! Crash!
The flood resulted in the destruction of many houses and Vincent felt pained after seeing this. Nevertheless, this is necessary to stop the pillar of fire from destroying the Vermillion Hawk and melting the surroundings.
At this point, Millie was able to catch up on Vincent as she looked at him with worry…
"Are you alright?" She asked while looking at the large creepy-looking eye he was holding.
"Yes, I'm fine. Let's hurry…" Vincent said as he controlled his Flying Sword to move again.
"Aahh! The Vermillion Hawk is falling!" Millie suddenly cried out in shock as she noticed that the airship's engine was burning…
It seems that the Pillar of Fire was just too much for the vessel.
Vincent was alarmed after seeing this since Ayla and Dianne must be inside the airship… Although he prepared many emergency measures for this type of occasion, he's still unsure whether it had worked as he expected them to.
'Aura Sense… Item Sense…'
Vincent searched for the 14th Tower Master who should've been swept away by the flood.
As expected, he didn't feel the Tower Master's presence so he shifted his gaze to the falling Vermillion Hawk…
Thanks to the Float System that is still partially active, they should still have time to rescue Ayla and Dianne inside the airship…
He can only hope that they weren't toasted inside the airship yet…
Whoosh!
Vincent flew as fast as he can and controlled the two flying swords to cut open a path… Since all the defensive devices or formations have been broken, Vincent did all of this in just 5 seconds or so…
Crank!
Vincent immediately entered the vessel and found Ayla and Dianne unconscious… Luckily, they only passed out and the vessel's emergency protection mode seem to have activated…
He immediately carried the two and jumped out… Since he's now heavy, he has to control the three Flying Swords to carry him and land safely in the city…
At this time, however, his senses felt the killing intent coming from the Tower Master…
Whoosh!
He leaned his head back as the Mana Bullet narrowly missed his temple.
'Crap… I need to get away quickly…'
There was no way that the sneaky attack would end in just one Mana Bullet.
As expected, five more fast and almost invisible Mana Bullets targeted him.
Furthermore, the origin of each bullet wasn't the same! This is a different level of multicasting compared to the other Grand Magus he had seen…
'So it's possible to use Mana Bullets this way…' Vincent had a sudden inspiration but he knows that he can't try this considering the situation.
Crash!
The Vermillion Hawk finally crashed to the ground and created a small explosion…
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
At the same time, all the mana bullets thrown by the Tower Master reached Vincent.
Luckily for him, all the bullets were actually targeting him instead of the girls in his arms… With this in mind, Vincent decided to ignore the bullets and dashed down to bring the two to safety…
"Millie… Take care of these two!" Vincent shouted as he was hit by the five Mana Bullets…
"Vincent!" Millie worriedly shouted as she saw the two girls being thrown in her direction. She immediately kept her sword and caught the two with a grunt…
She didn't expect that Vincent would just throw the two so suddenly…
Nevertheless, she still checked Vincent's condition and confirmed that he was unhurt.
'Armor? When did he---'
Millie was shocked to see Vincent in armor but as soon as she realized what kind of armor it was, she was obviously speechless. She immediately recalled what it is!
This is the same for the others who had never seen Vincent wear this armor.
"I-is that a Celestial Armor?!"
Shane and Brycen who were rushing to this site after seeing the Pillar of Fire were shocked after seeing Vincent wearing the armor.
As far as they know, Celestial Armors are off-limits to humans like them… They may be able to wield the Celestial Weapons, but that would be such a waste since they won't be able to use their weapon skills.
As for the Celestial Armors, activating them is a mystery… They only know that it could be hidden under your shirt or in a different form. However, activating them to cover your body with armor is not something that they can do…
"I knew it… This guy is definitely a son of the Celestial Being… Half-human half-celestial!" Shane uttered in shock and it was heard by many.
"Half-Human Half-Celestial! No wonder he was so powerful and was able to command so many Celestials!"
"Amazing!"
"The City Lord is really the best!"
Brycen was a bit surprised when the people nearby accepted what Shane just said…
'This guy… I'm sure that he also knows that Celestial Beings can't reproduce due to some unknown reasons… There was no way that Vincent came from a Human and a Celestial… Ugh… Whatever, this might be a good thing as well…' Brycen thought as he returned his gaze above the sky.
