Chapter 111: Chapter 110: Alice, Use Smash Attack on Him! (4/5)
Shen Sui looked at the prompt on the screen, suddenly feeling that Alice was even more overpowered than himself.
He now roughly knew what Alice’s sudden new status was all about.
In "Dawn Link", one of the most distinctive features of the War God Divine Realm is the Forbidden Demon, where no magic can be used, forcing those who enter the Divine Realm to compete physically against the War God.
And on the game forum, there’s a legend that if you have a way to use Magic Power in the War God Divine Realm, you’ll gain the approval of the ghosts there and receive a powerful force.
But since no player has found a way to use magic in the War God Divine Realm, this legend has never been verified.
Alice seems to be able to use power in the War God Temple due to the influence of the hairpin.
But what exactly is the deal with Vivian’s hairpin?
Why can it allow Alice to ignore the effects of the War God Divine Realm?
Shen Sui was a bit puzzled, as the Equipment Spell Card on the hairpin didn’t show such power.
Could it be....
Shen Sui suddenly thought of Vivian’s abilities.
Vivian, in the settings, is the most powerful enchanter and support role in "Dawn Link". Although she’s most known for her formidable battle prowess, she’s indeed a support character by design.
Vivian can impart her strength onto any item she creates.
The capabilities shown by the hairpin, which doesn’t belong to it, are likely some sort of power from Vivian attached to it.
Is Vivian inside?
Or is there something of hers in there?
Shen Sui immediately got excited.
Too bad his skills were useless in the War God Divine Realm, otherwise he would have explored the matter further.
Run faster, Alice!
Shen Sui was now more excited than Alice, having completely forgotten he had previously mocked Alice for such reckless behavior.
With the ghost power’s boost, Alice’s speed increased further.
However, she still couldn’t capture the reality of Vivian’s hairpin.
[Who knows how long she ran, but suddenly a bright light appeared at the end of Alice’s vision.]
[The light appeared so abruptly, like a flashlight in the dark night.]
[Alice hesitated for a moment; her experience told her that this was precisely the most dangerous moment.]
[Vivian’s hairpin finally stopped at the entrance of the light.]
[Alice walked up and grasped the hairpin back in her hand.]
[She looked up and realized she was standing at the entrance to a huge atrium.]
[Looking inside, Alice saw a towering statue of the War God standing in the center of the atrium, surrounded by nine warrior statues, the War God’s most esteemed subordinates.]
[At the foot of the statue, Alice saw something familiar.]
[Claude’s Treasure Box?]
[Alice instinctively walked in, her heart skipping a beat.]
[However, nothing happened. The warm glow inside the atrium fell upon Alice, as if she had stumbled into a poorly arranged garden.]
[Alice looked around cautiously, not recklessly opening Claude’s Treasure Box but exploring carefully.]
[This place seemed to be a stronghold of the War God Church, meticulously maintained. Nonetheless, Alice had no admiration for these war brutes’ aesthetics.]
[Alice grew somewhat bored, finding nothing related to the Extraordinary here.]
Isn’t it obvious? The War God doesn’t use such things at all.
[Is it because I’m opening it the wrong way?]
[Alice thought of the way those heroes in knight adventure novels deal with seemingly ordinary secret realms.]
Shen Sui suddenly felt a bad premonition.
In such plots, it seems like it’s either water or fire...
[Without thinking, Alice used arson on the Temple.]
Oh crap! Alice, what are you doing?! Are you always this reckless when I’m not around?!
[Such behavior was undoubtedly an act of contempt for the War God’s existence.]
[Ding! You acquired a Spell Card: Contempt.]
Good! Recklessness is indeed good.
Shen Sui, seeing the Life Card that popped up, suddenly felt that being reckless seemed fine.
Anyway, he’s got it all covered.
Those lunatics from the War God Church couldn’t do anything to Alice.
So what if my Alice burns down your temple?
[The pure white flame instantly ignited everything around. Statues, flowers, offerings... everything combustible and non-combustible was enveloped in flames.]
[The Ghost Cold Flame returned some of the power of the burning items to Alice, causing her Magic Power to replenish slowly.]
Oh crap, can this skill infinitely replenish mana?
Shen Sui suddenly felt a bit jealous; if he had got such a passive skill during his newbie phase, it would have been delightful.
Although now it seems he doesn’t need to worry about mana consumption, given all the buffs he has, even constantly casting fifteenth and sixteenth-tier spells wouldn’t deplete his mana faster than it regenerates.
[The second realm Alice expected didn’t appear, leaving her a bit disappointed.]
[Alice decided to open the treasure box.]
[At the foot of the War God statue, it seemed there was not only the Twilight Bishop’s Treasure Box but also a rather ordinary-looking magic staff.]
[These were the War God’s most prized collectibles.]
[Stepping on them felt like stepping on those detestable people.]
[Alice picked up the magic staff.]
[Ding! You acquired an Equipment Spell Card: Vivian’s Holy Authority Staff]
Damn!
A mental victory it is? That treasure box wasn’t even obtained from elsewhere, I just used this as storage after I put it here, okay?
Even the mighty War God resorts to mental victories?
Despite mocking, Shen Sui felt a bit disappointed; just Vivian’s Holy Authority Staff...
[Alice reached out to open the treasure box.]
[You withdrew the authorization, Alice couldn’t open it, and the treasure box provided feedback to Alice on why it couldn’t be opened.]
The treasure box in the War God Temple’s secret realm contains items that might not be useful to Shen Sui, but they’re the most precious treasures across the entire Dawn Continent. Although Shen Sui wanted Alice to face more challenges to acquire more Life Cards, he didn’t want his real life to be incessantly disrupted with challenges either.
Better let Alice open this treasure box once she has sufficient power to protect these treasures.
[Alice received feedback from the treasure box and felt a bit disheartened.]
[Her power wasn’t enough to open the treasure box.]
[She lifted her head to look up at the towering statue of the War God.]
[From this angle, Claude’s treasure box and Vivian’s staff seemed like they were trampled underfoot by the statue, as if the War God was flaunting his trophies.]
[Alice’s mind flashed with the numerous slanders the War God Church had made against Claude.]
[This bastard! He’s surely jealous of Claude’s romantic success, which is why he spread such malicious rumors!]
[Alice’s anger surged.]
Wait! Alice! What are you about to do?!
Shen Sui suddenly felt a bad premonition.
Alice doesn’t know that this statue is Bargas’s true form!
[Alice decided to return tit for tat.]
[Since the War God slandered Claude as a creature driven by instincts, she would make the War God lose his lower half!]
[Alice used a crushing blow targeting the crotch of the War God statue.]
[A fireball wrapped in pure white flames shot at the target area.]
[Fire scorched the War God’s body, an unprecedented act in the Dawn Continent’s millennia of history, it was the utmost desecration of divine authority.]
[Ding! You acquired a Spell Card: Desecration]
