Chapter 226 Chapter 154 High-Level Divine Arts Scroll (Two-In-One Mega Chapter)_2

His hammer skill level is merely at Lv4, and its enormous power relies more on the core skill "Hammer Mastery Lv3".

As for whether Reine wanted to compete with this young Temple Knight for some sort of dominance?

Not really...

Firstly, there has to be something worth competing for.

For example, when we talk about "competing for favor", both parties should be vying for the affections of the opposite sex; only then does the competition have meaning.

Secondly, the parties involved in such a competition or attempt to assert dominance need to be of similar status or strength; otherwise, there's no competition, just as a rich man wouldn't compare wealth with a beggar.

In the current situation, this young Temple Knight, if you don't count the enhancement from Divine Arts, would absolutely not surpass the upper limit of a veteran knight in terms of strength.

To be honest, that level of strength was already becoming negligible in Reine's eyes.

Reine moved to the rear of the Giant Axe Evil Spirit Knight and struck it with a giant hammer strike, of course, without activating "Overdrive".

"Heavy Strike!!"

Reine swung the hammer, its tip piercing through the knight's protective dark aura and directly hitting the black armor.

"Clang!!"

The grating sound of metal clashing echoed all around.

Stay updated through empire

Just one hit.

The Giant Axe Evil Spirit Knight stumbled from Reine's blow, its black armor pierced with several small holes from the concentrated spikes on the hammer's head.

Reine was elated; the penetrating power of the hammer's spiked head was truly remarkable!

Keep in mind that this was without activating any skills or transcendent traits, and yet it had such destructive force.

If he did activate them...

The young Temple Knight, seeing that Reine, without a word, tacitly coordinated with him to attack the Giant Axe Evil Spirit from behind, couldn't help feeling a bit of competitiveness which felt like punching into a cotton pile.

However, the young Temple Knight didn't waste the opportunity Reine created and followed up with two consecutive stabs and a Shield Strike at the Giant Axe Evil Spirit.

The continuous assault pinned down the Giant Axe Evil Spirit's attention, allowing Reine the leeway to exercise the Tokkal Hammer Technique and inflict sustained damage from the side and rear.

This gave Reine the pleasurable sensation of hammering at a wooden pile, farming experience points.

Delightful!

But the good times didn't last long. Just as the two Evil Spirit Knights were being suppressed and victory seemed within reach, suddenly, the trees in the dense forest shook, and an Evil Spirit Knight wielding a flail burst out.

What the hell?

Damn, now there's a third Evil Spirit Knight!

Everyone was shocked at the sight that unfolded before them!

Wasn't there supposed to be only one Evil Spirit Knight?

Lagaray was also taken aback with her beautiful eyes wide open in a dumbfounded daze.

The newly appeared flail-wielding Evil Spirit Knight swung its weapon high, and in a single strike, sent a law enforcer from County Town flying through the air like a torn sack, his chest caved in and vomiting blood, clearly not long for this world.

The flail was unlike ordinary ones, featuring a chain with three spiked iron balls, each the size of a melon, and immense destructive power.

At this moment, Headmaster Rudolph's eyes twitched violently!

Damnit, three Evil Spirit Knights...

It seemed he had no choice but to use that item!

Rudolph swiftly reached into his robe, intending to pull something out.

But in the next second, his eyes widened in shock, his mouth gaping, and the motion of pulling something out abruptly stopped!

The Giant Axe Evil Spirit Knight suddenly fell off the funeral horse, and even the horse itself, struck by the massive impact force, nearly knelt on its front hooves.

Rudolph saw clearly, a hole the size of an infant's head had appeared in the back of the black armor worn by the Giant Axe Evil Spirit Knight.

The one who struck was, of course, Reine!

The sudden appearance of the flail-wielding Evil Spirit Knight didn't faze the young Temple Knight, but the scene that just unfolded had him utterly astounded.

At the moment, his face under the knight helmet was nearly catatonic, mouth agape, but thankfully, his helmet hid his expression from everyone else.

God, Reine, was this strong without the blessing and protection of the Goddess?

If there was such a blessing...

The young Temple Knight didn't dare to continue that thought.

No wonder Reine, so young, could earn such high praise and overtures from Headmaster Rudolph.

Such strength and talent were truly formidable.

Looking at it now, the only one in the County Town Church who might be able to firmly outclass Reine would probably be the current Divine Child.

No... it's hard to say; perhaps only a one-on-one contest would tell.

Meanwhile, Reine's strike, after activating "Overdrive" and "Huge Strength", instantly extinguished any competitive thoughts the young Temple Knight might have harbored.

Sometimes, that's just how people are.

If the difference with someone else is not too great, or if it's just a small gap, most will feel they can catch up or even surpass them with their own efforts.

But once that gap becomes substantial enough, most will completely lose the will to compete.

"You take on that flail-wielding Evil Spirit Knight, I'll finish up with this Giant Axe Evil Spirit Knight and then come over to help you," Reine's deep voice resounded.

Now, with that flail-wielding Evil Spirit rampaging among those with ordinary fighting strength, Reine naturally couldn't just stand by and watch; after all, they were his Night Watchmen subordinates.

"Oh, yes... yes, Lord Reine!" the young Temple Knight momentarily paused, but then he quickly nodded in agreement and turned his horse to charge at the newly emerged flail-wielding Evil Spirit Knight.
