Chapter 670: Chapter 268: Crushing the Firm! (Two-in-One Mega Chapter)_3
The Caster was none other than Galina in the distance.
Having landed a successful strike, Galina burst into excited laughter, “Haha! You’ve been caught by my Grasp of the Evil Spirit!”
Perhaps it was the immense pressure Lord Rein had just put on her, but now that she had regained the upper hand, Galina was inexplicably thrilled!
In Galina’s view, there was no way Rein could turn the tables now.
For she simply couldn’t fathom how a Great Knight, under such circumstances, could make a comeback!
This critical moment immediately caused the hearts of the surrounding spectators to rise to their throats once again!
The battle between Lord Rein and the Cult leader before their eyes was nothing short of spectacular, opening their eyes to new wonders!
If it had been anyone else facing such peril on the field, chances were slim to none, but Lord Rein was different; he had turned the tide twice before in battle, so could he do it again against all odds?
The crowd watched nervously to see how Rein would resolve this dangerous situation.
Facing the giant axe that split the air towards him, Rein sighed softly!
“Ah!”
With this faint yet distinct sigh, Rein’s left hand suddenly brandished a dark tower shield, raising it high and once more deploying the Intermediate Secret Technique “Iron Wall!”
“Clang!!!”
Intense sparks flew in all directions!
He blocked it!
Though Rein was nearly buried halfway into the ground, he had indeed borne the brunt with great resilience!
“What… what’s going on?” The crowd stared in bewilderment!
This time, whether it was their own or the enemy Cultist’s side, everyone saw it clearly: Rein had originally been holding a Warhammer, but what was happening now?
How did a tower shield suddenly appear out of nowhere?
Was this some sort of magic trick?
“The thing in your hand… No! This is the metal-based witchcraft ‘Metal Morphing Spell’!” In a flash, Galina realized something, her eyes widening as she exclaimed.
Being an Evil Sorcerer, she had just sensed a rather significant fluctuation of witchcraft energy.
“You’ve also taken up wizardry?!”
“But… that’s still not right!”
“Even if you have mastered the rare Metal Morphing Spell, you couldn’t possibly change metal that quickly!”
“This is impossible!”
“I’ve got it! You actually… you’ve made the Metal Morphing Spell your innate wizardry…” Galina muttered to herself, revealing Rein’s secret.
Cleya, on the other hand, watched Lord Rein with an equally perplexed look on her face.
As the daughter of an Earl and a student at the Imperial Royal Academy, her insights were extraordinary. Thus, she too realized that Rein was a rare metal-based wizard!
This….
Some assets lose their trump card value once they are revealed, which is why Rein had always kept his abilities close to the vest.
For the average person or knight ignorant of witchcraft, it didn’t matter much, but most formal Wizards had a broad range of knowledge, and once Rein used his abilities publicly, the opponent would likely pick up on some clues.
However, this was not Rein’s strongest trump card; delaying its exposure was also to cause the enemy to misjudge.
Facing a 5-meter-tall stone golem, even with his Giant Strength Talent and mastery of multiple secret techniques, Rein didn’t want to physically challenge such a behemoth.
This type of golem, weighing over ten tons, could deliver force with each strike to rival a thousand pounds, making a head-to-head confrontation extremely taxing!
The problem now was that with Galina constantly tripping up Rein from the sidelines, he had no choice but to meet the Giant Axe Golem’s blows head-on!
Normally, if the golem hadn’t been covered in that black aura, Rein could’ve waited for the right opportunity to repeatedly strike at certain parts, like the knees or ankles, and would’ve been able to quickly disable its mobility.
But here was the issue: that black aura absorbed almost all the damage, rendering Rein’s attacks nearly ineffective.
After rising from the crater he was buried in, Rein was once again besieged by the Slow Technique and the Grasp of the Evil Spirit!
Forced to deploy “Iron Wall” again to block a chop from the Giant Axe Golem, Rein followed up the next second with an Advanced Secret Skill “Hammer of Shattering” aimed at the golem once more!
As the Giant Axe Golem was toppled by Rein, there wasn’t the slightest worry on Galina’s face.
On the contrary, her bewitching eyes shone brighter than ever!
“So he’s just a half-baked wizard, and here I was worried for nothing!”
“Even if you are exceptionally talented, how much strength do you have left to perform such attacks?” Galina internally shouted.
This time, Rein noticed that the brief flicker of black light on the Giant Axe Golem seemed slightly dimmed.
Which meant his attacks were indeed having an effect, and the defense of the opponent was trending downward.
Whether the opponent relied on surface runes to absorb energy or used some kind of power core within to drive the defense array, as long as the strikes were plentiful and strong enough, eventually, their protective layer would break!
Understanding this, Rein instantly put a little more power into his strength.
Suddenly with his energy at its peak, Rein once again utilized the Hammer Skill’s Advanced Secret Skill “Hammer of Shattering”!
What followed was a solo performance by Rein.
Because everyone present was stunned by the scene unfolding before them!
They saw the ‘little fella’ Rein, who stood two meters tall, wielding a Warhammer, and with one swing, he knocked down the Giant Axe Golem, over five meters tall and weighing over ten tons, to the ground.
No sooner had the golem stood up than it was knocked down again by Rein!
This process looped over and over.
The sight before them was like watching a three-year-old child with a small wooden hammer repeatedly knocking down a full-grown, muscular man.
The entire scene was strikingly dissonant!
