Part 5 The Red Priest Chapter 79 Random Mutations
On that full-body mirror, the silver text faded and reorganized line by line as if it had a life force of its own:
”‘Concerto of Light and Shadow’ is a pocket watch that can ‘prohibit’ a certain behavior within a certain range, or ‘deprive’ the target of a certain extraordinary ability, but the two together can cause no more than two restrictions;
”The ‘Concerto of Light and Shadow’ can also ‘gift’ a certain negative state directly to the target, making him either passive, greedy and eager, losing his fighting spirit, or only able to focus on money;
”In addition to these, the bearer of this seal is equally capable of ‘distorting’ the target’s words, actions, intentions, and the effects of an attack, turning a fatal wound into a serious injury, a blow into a push away, an advance into a retreat, and an escape into a charge.
”The negative effects of ‘Concerto of Light and Shadow’ are more serious, of which, the main point is that once the bearer enters a combat state, then all the extraordinary effects presented within a certain range will intermittently and randomly mutate, regardless of the enemy, difficult to control, and unpredictable, that is to say, the ‘Thunder Strike’ may still create a bolt of lightning, or it may splash the target with cold water, or it may summon unknown creatures from the spirit world.
”For such reasons, Chunas Korg deliberately collected a magical item that made him lucky at critical moments in the hope that the random effects that intermittently appeared would be more favorable to him, which had some effect, but not that much.
”……
”Chunas Korg also possesses a peculiar pistol that originated as a mutation from one of the Evil God Sacrifice events called ‘Revere’s Despairing Shout’ …… It fires without bullets, and each shot has a great deal of power …… It can keep firing rapidly without stopping, just like a shrunken machine gun……Targets hit by it will also endure Revere’s desperate hissing before his death, appearing in different states such as pain, dizziness, and disorientation, respectively… …
”The biggest problem with this pistol is that its wielder will hear that same desperate hiss, just not as often.
” ……
”As a ‘Fallen Count’, Chunas Korg no doubt also has a qualitatively different ‘twist’ and an unreasonable ‘giveaway’, plus He can also ‘utilize’ rules, ‘amplify’ effects, and ‘confuse’ order.
”‘Utilize’ can make a certain state stay longer or end earlier, making the rules more favorable to himself, an example of this is that after jumping into mid-air, he can prolong this state of leaving the earth to achieve the effect of floating;
”‘Amplification’ serves to enhance the effect or impact of certain actions of one’s own, it can turn a normal blow into an ‘execution’, it can turn an air embrace across a distance into a binding;
”‘Confusion’, on the other hand, affects the structure of things, the standard of scale, and the precision of attacks, causing seemingly massive buildings to come crashing down, shortening apparently vast distances to between a few paces, and deflecting strikes aimed at itself to one side.
”By ‘amplifying,’ ‘utilizing,’ and ‘distorting,’ the ‘Lawyer’ Pathway of the Extraordinary can do to some extent what only the ‘Arbiter’ Pathway can do.
”Of course, the ‘Bribery’ and other low and medium sequence extraordinary abilities of the ‘Lawyer’ pathway are equally possessed and stronger by the ‘Fallen Count’.
” ……
”Great master, I’m done answering, is that okay?”
Your answer has the feeling of reading an instruction manual, it must have been shown part by part while gathering information in the spirit world …… Also, this kind of thing also asks for praise ah? Klein belabored twice and nodded gently:
”Not bad.”
After answering “Magic Mirror” Aroldus’s question, he quickly entered his state and analyzed the ability of the demigod, Qunus Korg, and the characteristics of that powerful seal:
The “Fallen Count” is indeed a Sequence 4, a half-god, half-human being, with qualitative changes in every aspect, whether it be “gifting” or “twisting”, “Utilization”, “amplification”, are not easy to deal with, if you are not careful, you will suffer ……
Chaos” is not that scary, it’s basically an enhancement of Sequence 5’s “Chaos Mentor” ability. ……
”Concerto of Light and Shadow” really has the characteristics of the “Arbiter” field, and the most annoying thing about it is that negative effect …… For “Diviner” path of extraordinary persons For an extraordinary person of the “Diviner” pathway, the fighting style is definitely on the side of preparation, precision and control. Once the fight starts, the means are bound to come one after another, one set after another, and during this process, if there are random deviations from time to time, the overall plan will easily be disrupted and will not be able to be realized. …… It’s very dangerous! ……
Thinking about it, Klein realized that the main problem lies in the seal called “Concerto of Light and Shadow”.
As an extraordinary person who likes to set traps for his enemies, Klein does not want to find out that the item that saves his life and wins him only summons a rabbit, or simply turns into a firework, when he has finally put himself in an extremely dangerous situation with his “Luck Stealer” spell, which is intended to swap destinies with his target, turn the tide of the battle, and finish off his opponent in one go. Or simply turned into fireworks to celebrate the user’s violent death.
While Chunas Korg can minimize the effects of this with items that raise the level of luck, I can’t. Luck or bad luck that isn’t angelic won’t work on me at all… …However, I have the “Winner” Njuni as a secret puppet …… Klein pondered and posed a second question to the “Magic Mirror” Aroldus:
”How do you circumvent the intermittent random mutations of that seal?”
On the deep mirror, silver words leapt out of the waves of light to form a new sentence:
”No need to circumvent!
”Just make Chunas Korg unlucky; the demigods of the ‘Darkness’ pathway are experts in that regard.”
Makes sense …… According to the theory of relativity, as long as Chunas Korg is unluckier than me, I’m the lucky one …… Ms. Arianna herself said she’d provide the necessary assistance …… For her For her, it should be easy and simple to quietly give Chunas Korg a “jinx” before creating the hidden world …… Klein nodded with clarity:
”Very well, that’s all for today, after that if there’s anything, I’ll summon you again.”
”Yes, master! No problem, master! Goodbye, Master~” On the surface of the full body mirror, a sketch of a “wave” followed by a silver word appeared.
Seeing that the mirror instantly returned to normal, Klein retracted his gaze and quickly deduced the next battle in his mind.
Gradually, he got a certain idea, grabbing the flashes of inspiration and doing further refinement.
With a few preconceived notions in mind, Klein stepped out onto the balcony and whispered to the nighttime garden:
”Can you put Chunas Korg into ‘doom’ before the battle?”
After a brief moment of silence, a calm, ordinary female voice rang in his ears:
”Yes.”
”Then I have no problem with that.” Klein responded immediately.
Silence quickly returned to his surroundings.
As the cold autumn wind blew, Klein gazed at the night estate for a few seconds without expression, then clicked his silk bowler hat, tugged on the human leather glove on his left palm, and removed the Deathstroke revolver from under his armpit.
Then, with an oblique swipe of his thumb, he set the iron black pistol’s revolver in motion.
……
The night was getting darker and darker, with the red moon occasionally piercing through the clouds, and the Maege Manor was completely asleep in this environment.
At that moment, a figure came stealthily from the south bank of the Tasok River, spending two or three steps to walk back to his room.
He was none other than the white shirt with black pants of MI9’s Deputy Director, Chunus Colg.
The demigod with the tough-guy appearance looked around and found nothing unusual, so he put on a slight smile and walked over to the small bar position in the guest bedroom, rummaged for a glass, picked up a bottle of red wine produced by Maege, and was about to pour himself a shallow layer in celebration of this wonderful evening.
It was then that he had a sudden touch of inspiration and jerked his head up.
He then saw several off-white chimneys on the opposite roof suddenly shrouded in shadow and tinted with the color of ink.
To the side of these chimneys, one of the iconic spires of the main house of Maege Manor had become equally deep black, and a bright, bright red moon hung silently behind the top of this spire.
The clouds and stars high in the sky had disappeared by now, and apart from the huge red moon, it was the pitch-black color of night.
Under the night color, the flowers and trees, which were clearly right in front of us, were lifeless, dull and hazy, and seemed to be far away.
Black and red, shadows and buildings, quiet and plants, were displayed in such a peculiar manner in the eyes of Chunas Colgate.
This …… demigod responded without a bit of hesitation as his pupils dilated slightly.
His left hand probed into his coat pocket and his right palm reached under his armpit, taking out two items respectively.
Among them, the one he held in his right palm was a strange pistol, which was gray in color as a whole, and was a few circles larger than an ordinary revolver, like a giant hammer that was only found in a small half of classical wars.
The pistol was also unusual in that it had six barrels, each of which was rather thick, with a deep bore, and its revolver was studded with a dozen or so ugly rivets on top of the revolver, which had a rugged beauty to it.
In the left hand of Chunas Korg was a “tin” pocket watch, on the dial of which half of the symbols were neatly arranged in chronological order, and half of them were chaotic, even intruding into the opposite area, while the two seemed to be connected in the core of the behind-the-scenes machinery, which could not be seen directly, and which had a much more complex and dizzier structure. The structure.
Almost simultaneously, a figure protruded from the huge red moon outside the window, gliding in at breakneck speed.
He grew larger and larger, becoming clearer and clearer, a young man with black hair and brown pupils, a deep silhouette and cold, hard lines.
Wearing a silk bowler hat and a black trench coat, this young man was carrying a unique revolver in one hand, and with one hand covered in transparent human skin, it was as if he was carrying the huge red moon under the bright light.
