Chapter 325: The Limits of Imagination
Arc of Manifestation is not modeling magic, but the two have similar effects.
The use of the former depends on one's own memory, and the use of magic requires "already existing"; while the latter does not have this limitation, and the power of magic depends on the user's imagination.
If it is classified as magic of "shaping", it can almost be called "illusion shaping".
Although he is in a dark guild, Rastilos likes to read books because it enriches his imagination. Naturally, he became a fan of "Light of Hope", the most famous novelist in the Kingdom of Fiore today.
This author has written many fascinating and heart-touching stories, in which all kinds of strange and bizarre magic and props have a great influence on his "arc of embodiment".
"I'll use you as the first test subject to see how powerful the imaginary creations from the book can be!"
Under the astonished gazes of Felide and Bigusro, Lastiros suddenly changed his previous depressed expression, spread his hands outward in a casual manner, and his bespectacled eyes revealed infinite madness in the rain, as well as an eagerness to try out new imaginary things!
"Show up! The iron armor that resides in me!"
There are two limitations on the use of the Arc of Manifestation: one is the limitation of imagination, and the other is the limitation of magic power.
Human imagination has its limits. The more complex something is, the harder it is to imagine it out of thin air.
This is why Lastiros has always used the simplest cold weapons. The deconstruction and attack methods of cold weapons are relatively simple and do not require a lot of energy to imagine. You only need to use magic power to enhance its properties.
However, if there is something to refer to, and on this basis we can add, modify and mix it, the operation of "imagination" will be much easier.
As soon as he finished speaking, his magic power surged , and a silver-white steel armor appeared out of thin air on Lastiros' body. The armor looked very thick, full of power and beauty, wrapping him tightly.
"Is this armor?!"
"Could it be that this guy... has thrown away his temperament just to win?"
Seeing this scene, Felide and Bigusro were surprised, because this creation was very different in style from his previous creations.
Lastiros gritted his teeth in hatred in his armor. If it wasn't for the last resort, he didn't want to use this turtle-shell-like fighting method. However, the attacks and speeds of the two men in front of him were far beyond his ability, so he could only resort to this last resort.
The existence of Bigusro restricted the form of his creations. Since he could not create iron warriors, iron beasts and the like, he could only wear armor on himself.
"Prepare to die!" Lastiros shouted loudly, and his armor suddenly changed.
Suddenly, a piece of iron appeared behind him, shooting straight up into the sky. Then, with the bottom point as the center, the iron piece expanded to both sides at the same time, instantly forming a circular iron plate with a radius of one meter.
Bigusro was puzzled: "What is this?"
The next moment, hundreds of round gun muzzles with a diameter of three centimeters, some long and some short, suddenly appeared on the iron plate, and on the two iron arms, chest, shoulders and other places of the armor, there were magic beam cannons of different calibers.
The entire armor instantly turned into a long-range weapons arsenal, and it looked to be full of firepower.
"What?!"
Felide and Bigusro stared at their opponent's changes in amazement. Before they could react, their attention was attracted by the fire from the muzzle and the energy of the magic cluster cannon.
The next moment, gunfire broke out and the roar resounded through the sky.
Bang, bang, bang…
Boom! Boom! Boom! …
"Dark text, rejected!"
Felide slashed his sword quickly, writing the word "reject" in the air, forming a magic barrier that blocked all the bullets at the critical moment.
But the magic barrier is not omnipotent. It can deal with bullets, but it is not so easy to deal with laser cannon attacks!
"Reject! Reject! Reject! ..."
Seeing that the magic barrier showed signs of cracking, Felide immediately set up another barrier, which was dissolving and retreating at the same time.
But the laser cannon seemed to have encountered no obstacles, and its attack power remained undiminished, breaking through the magic barrier that Felide had worked so hard to create.
Snap! Snap! Snap!
“Get out of the way!”
With a loud shout, two figures, one black and one purple, jumped to both sides at the same time, avoiding the attack before the laser cannon broke through the last layer of barrier.
"That was a close call..." Bigusro said with lingering fear, "This guy actually has this kind of attack method? He doesn't look that strong..."
"But since it's this type of armor, then the defense and speed won't be that strong, right?"
Bigusro was not afraid of the opponent's guns and cannons. Instead, he commanded the puppets to attack again: "X formation!"
The puppets responded and immediately formed an "X" formation, spitting out green lasers from their mouths to attack the armor in front of them, but...
"Really? Pegasus Wings!"
Rastilos sneered, and a pair of white wings suddenly grew out of the feet of his armor, just like the Pegasus wings before. Then he bent his knees, stomped his feet hard on the ground, and flew into the air.
"Straight formation!"
"Victory formation!"
"Heavy particle formation!"
Boom…Boom…Boom…
Bigusro commanded the puppets to attack continuously, but the armored warrior's body rose and fell from time to time, and his position was erratic, so the laser beam could not catch up at all.
"He moves so fast!"
Seeing that his teammates were unable to attack, Felide's eyes focused, and he raised his sword diagonally, and cast another text magic: "Dark text, Wing!"
The words became real, and the Dark Knight instantly grew wings on his back and flew into the air to fight against the steel armor.
"Are you planning on getting close to the fight? Then give it a try! I am completely different now than before!"
The pride in his heart aroused Lastiros's competitive spirit. After seeing that Felide seemed to be intending to engage in close combat, he did not retreat but advanced instead, intending to compete with the Dark Knight in front of him.
In mid-air, magic surged on the steel armor. In order not to waste magic, Rastilos dissipated all the guns and replaced them with a set of evolved combat equipment.
"Dark sword, golden shield!"
The pitch-black sword is no longer the iron claw it once was, but a double-edged long sword. It lacks the ability to retract and penetrate, but it greatly increases the force of the chopping.
The Golden Shield was changed to a round shape, the material was replaced with a special metal, and even the size was reduced. It was embedded on the left arm, and one could block the enemy's attack with just a slight raise of the hand.
With the combination of armor, sword and shield, and the wings on his feet, Rastilos instantly turned into a flying knight! But his changes were not limited to that!
"The Holy White Cannon resides in the palm of your hand and penetrates everything!"
The light cannon that sacrificed quantity in favor of quality appeared in the palm of the armored left hand as Lastiros imagined, turning that left arm into an all-round offensive and defensive device.
The armor at this time has everything you need for melee, long-range, attack, and defense.
With the evolution of his equipment , Lastiros' confidence increased again, and he actually took the initiative to attack Filid. Filid also swooped down with his sword raised, and the two of them were like two black and white arrows, about to collide in the air!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Before he got close, Lastiros raised his left hand and fired three shots at Felide.
The attack came suddenly. Felide hurriedly activated the wings on his back. Although he dodged the first two bombardments, he was hit by the third beam and his body fell from the sky!
"Felide!"
Bigusro shouted and rushed forward to check. Fortunately, Felide's defense had increased significantly in the "Absolute Shadow" state. Although he was a little embarrassed, his injuries were not serious.
“It’s really tricky!”
When the opponent is in the air, Bigusro can only exert limited power. Although the five puppets can carry him flying, he cannot disperse his attacks, which greatly reduces his mobility in battle.
"It doesn't matter! I'll beat him!"
Felide stood up with a serious face. The whites of his eyes turned black and his pupils turned purple. He then used his sword as a pen, his body as a book, and his magic power as ink, and engraved a line of dark text on his body.
"Dark text, dark!!!"
