“You have comprehended the ‘Intermediate Great Sword Specialization Lv1 (3/400)’…”
“…”
Leonard looked at the two shadows that alternated rapidly during the battle.
He had grasped not only the knight’s martial skills fueled by fighting spirit but also the attack methods of the Demon Clan.
However, this was merely a rapid increase in proficiency for some basic martial skills.
Some sword skills at the mystery level were still obscure and required a long time to comprehend.
What Leonard was most concerned about was Prince Sane’s Gravitational Secret Technique.
Upon careful observation, he found that the technique was of an exceptionally high tier.
The thin, twisted lines of space were like intricate natural curses, as if revealing some universal law.
Normally, to observe with the naked eye, and comprehend a high-tier secret technique from scratch would be impossible.
But Leonard had some fundamental understanding.
Ever since he obtained the Power Gem Golden Sphere, he had been studying the principle behind its gravity manipulation.
Although he hadn’t figured it out, he was very familiar with that twisting force since he carried the golden orb with him.
Now that he was seeing someone control this power, everything became more intuitive.
It felt as if a primitive man had picked up a gun, not knowing how to use it before, but now watching someone load and fire it, the processes that completely surpassed his understanding were laid out before his eyes.
Although he still couldn’t fathom it, he at least knew how to use it.
After the Demonic Solution, Leonard concentrated all his thoughts on deducing this secret technique.
His exceedingly high enlightenment turned the observation into his own understanding.
“You have observed the ‘Fifty-two Demonic God Forbidden Techniques· Celestial Godfall’, comprehension +1”
“You have observed the ‘Fifty-two Demonic God Forbidden Techniques· Celestial Godfall’, comprehension +2”
“…”
Enlightenment had occurred, and Leonard realized that this was a Demon God Forbidden Technique.
And it was a lost forbidden technique he had never heard of before.
It appears that Noah Wright had been correct previously when he talked about the deity in the shape of a three-headed sheep, snake, lion, and griffin worshipped by the Delaney Dynasty: it was a divinely out-of-control being from the card masters’ Fifty-two Demon Gods.
However, at the moment, Leonard had no desire to focus on this.
The refresh rate for proficiency was very slow, and judging by the efficiency, it was highly likely that he wouldn’t be able to learn it just by observing.
“I need to think of some other way…”
Leonard also pondered it in his mind.
…
Leonard suddenly went through a Demonic Solution, a process that caused quite a disturbance. He did not know if the plot characters could see it, but the two temporary teammates certainly did.
Camilla hadn’t seen Leonard for a long time, and when she saw the Clown illusion behind him, even her normally cold and clear eyes flickered with a trace of unusual color.
Watching the strange Clown illusion of the Demon God, though Camilla also wondered which of the fifty-two it might be, she felt more relief than anything.
Only she knew that Leonard’s Demon Mark came from the Alternate Dimension 407.
But that relief was fleeting, and the unusual hue in her eyes was quickly submerged by coldness.
On the other hand, Noah Wright looked at Leonard’s Demonic Solution with curious eyes, even he was curious what effect the Joker’s Demonic Solution would have.
Since Leonard had gone through a Demonic Solution and wasn’t focusing on the actual fight, Noah deduced it might be some sort of auxiliary ability.
But just as the battle was intensifying, something completely unexpected happened.
“Thud!”
“Thud!”
“Thud!”
“…”
The sound of footsteps was even louder than the din of battle, making the entire cave shake.
As the combatants turned to look,
a giant shrouded in a black robe and surrounded by an aura of death marched towards the Holy Grail!
Everyone watched with astonishment: Was this guy courting death?
Leonard recognized at a glance that the undead giant was likely the work of the Hunchbacked Old Cook.
The man had disappeared at the start of the battle, and now suddenly appeared, heading straight for the Holy Grail?
Could he withstand the tearing force of that strange domain?
Leonard instantly felt a bad premonition.
He didn’t think the people from the Silver Moon Sect were fools.
These believers who could directly communicate with the Ancient God’s will often had means beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Although Leonard wasn’t particularly concerned about the Holy Grail, if the Holy Water inside it was consumed by someone else, it would be gone!
Leonard even guessed what the Old Cook was thinking at the moment.
The Holy Water could heal all wounds and diseases.
Even if he rushed over and was fatally wounded, as long as he still clung to life, drinking the Holy Water could keep him alive.
And judging by the situation, the Hunchbacked Old Cook would be seriously injured while making his way over.
He very likely intended to drink the Holy Water!
…
“But how exactly is this guy going to counter that strange gravitational force?”
While Leonard guessed the Old Cook had some unorthodox tactic, he couldn’t fathom what it was.
As they turned their gaze towards him, the undead giant stepped into that strange domain.
Leonard knew the Old Cook had some ancient giant corpses, procured from who knows where.
In myths, the Giant Race were also high-tier life forms, just like the Dragon Clan, elves, and dwarfs.
The mythical giants were said to have even greater strength than the dragons!
Leonard instantly guessed the Old Cook was using the giant’s corpse, clearly intending to “break magic with brute force.”
Without waiting to think further, the undead giant charged into the fray.
Then, riding on the momentum of its violent charge that even twisted the air, it leaped up in a huge stride.
Although Gravity Black Lines began to swirl around its body as it entered, appearing as though an invisible giant hand was trying to pull it down,
the strength of the undead giant was so exaggerated that it leaped over ten meters in one bound.
“Thump!”
The thud of a heavy object hitting the ground resounded.
