Chapter 16: 12 Movements!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
"Using a rookie who's struggling to release a wind blade to scare people? It looks like the Skadi Kingdom is running out of tricks."
"I'm afraid he can't even break through a soldier's battle aura, let alone the defensive magic of a Temple of Light mage," one of the commanders of the Temple of Light's allied forces sneered.
Like the rest of the army of the Temple of Light, this commander had no illusion that the present Skadi Kingdom could pose a threat to them. The man Klent had summoned could barely cast a low-level spell like the wind blade. Even if he'd been a high-powered Great Archmage, when combined with Klent, they were only two Great Archmages. The Temple of Light, on the other hand, had five of them. There was no way the Skadi kingdom could have gotten away from the hands of the five Great Archmages of the Temple of Light.
"Yo, this is pretty warm." Glancing at the 12 swords behind Mo Fan in the sky, the legion commander didn't feel threatened at all.
He even felt that the light from the 12 Movements of Dawn was a little warm.
"I think it's quite suitable for warming in the winter," the mage beside the legion commander agreed with a smile.
"Do they want to use that to scare people? It doesn't hurt to look good." The legion commander chuckled.
"He's just fighting like a cornered beast." The mage seemed to sense something else. "But the light from those swords seems to be getting stronger."
At this moment, the legion commander also looked up at the sky. In the void, the golden runes surrounding the 12 Movements of Dawn behind Mo Fan gradually unfolded and rotated at high speed in a double spiral with Mo Fan at the core. At the same time, the light emitted by the 12 Movements of Dawn became stronger and stronger, gradually making it difficult for one to look straight at it. It was as if a second sun had been born in the sky.
"I didn't expect the Skadi Kingdom to be capable of casting magic with such intense light."
"So what? It's not able to hurt anyone."
"Haha, it's a pity that this magic doesn't light the way to the Dark Abyss like a beacon guide."
The soldiers in the allied forces of the Temple of Light were also surprised to see this, but they didn't pay much attention to it. They just narrowed their eyes to prevent damage to their eyes. After all, no matter how strong this light was, it was only for show. If the Skadi Kingdom really had the ability, why would they need to do this to scare people? They would have attacked the Temple of Light with a large spell.
"Ow!" Just as the allied forces of the Temple of Light were paying no attention to the light of the 12 Movements of Dawn, a soldier suddenly couldn't help but scream. He quickly covered his mouth with his hand, indicating that he couldn't control himself for a moment.
The many soldiers of the Temple of Light did not pay much attention to it. They just thought it was an ordinary accident. But soon, more and more soldiers of the Temple of Light's allied forces could not help but scream. Their screams rose and fell, one after another.
At first, these soldiers still had the consciousness to cover their mouths tightly with their hands, wondering why they were suddenly so strange. But as time passed, these soldiers' hands that were covering their mouths turned red, and fine drops appeared on their foreheads. The blood vessels in their eyes increased, and their expressions began to distort strangely, like those scary dolls made in workshops.
The soldiers of the Temple of Light, with their hands clamped tightly over their mouths, suddenly threw their heads back and laughed, as if possessed by demons.
Some of these soldiers rolled their eyes and grabbed the heads of other soldiers beside them and shouted crazily, as if they had gone crazy. Some of them collapsed to the ground and twisted with dense cracking sounds, like wooden figures. The soldiers who had collapsed to the ground were twisting their bodies and moving quickly. When they touched the feet of normal soldiers, they immediately wrapped around them like pythons. The scene was very dreadful.
All kinds of phenomena like this were happening in the allied forces of the Temple of Light at this moment, as if demons were wreaking havoc among them. These people were specially affected by the negative effects of the 12 Movements of Dawn.
"These damned heathens have a lot of tricks up their sleeve!" The allied commander frowned at the appalling scene unfolding before him.
"It's a pity that these small tricks are so inferior. They're embarrassing." The allied commander sneered, thinking that it was ridiculous for the Skadi KIngdom to use such a despicable counterattack.
In the eyes of this legion commander, this kind of trick might have some effect on low-level warriors with insufficient battle aura. However, to high-level warriors with powerful battle aura, this method was useless. And this legion commander was a level-eight knight with a powerful battle aura, so he was not worried about being affected like those ordinary soldiers.
"Quickly cast a spell to remove the negative effect on the soldiers," the legion commander ordered the mage beside him.
However, in the next second, before the mage could respond, the commander's vision blurred suddenly and everything turned black before him. He felt his strength being drained, and the world began to sway in his eyes. At last he held the spear tightly to prevent himself from falling to the ground.
"Oh no!" he exclaimed. "I didn't expect the Skadi Kingdom to have some tricks up their sleeve. Even I was caught off guard."
The allied commander was extremely shocked. He was a level eight knight, and his battle aura was extremely powerful. He was considered one in a million among knights. Relying on his powerful battle aura, the commander had never been affected by any negative effect magic.
But what he never expected was that he would be hit here in the Skadi Kingdom, which was about to be destroyed. He realized at that moment that the spell the Skadi Kingdom had cast was probably not ordinary magic. It should be one of the kingdom's trump cards. He had thought that magic which only produced negative effects could only serve as support ultimately. It was embarrassing to use magic without inflicting the damage of a major spell. Although it shocked him a little, it was far from terrifying.
However, when he realized that this was the legendary 12 Movements of Dawn, he tried his best to escape this battlefield. Legend had it that Theseus, the greatest leader of the Holy Dwarf Clan and the most terrifying king of killers who traveled the world and left a mark in the annals of the Azure Continent, had an arch enemy.
His enemy was the most famous Great Archmage in the Azure Continent. For hundreds of years, Theseus could not defeat that Great Archmage. This made him feel utterly humiliated, until the 12 Movements of Dawn appeared!
