My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start - Chapter 150
Chapter 150: A Complete Great Sin Mask
Crack!
A layer of a transparent mask as thin as a Cicada’s wing split into three translucent pieces approximately the same size on Audrey’s face. They landed right in Watson’s hands.
“Give it back to me!”
Audrey arched her brows bitterly. Then she extended her hand in an attempt to compete with Watson. Watson brandished his Thousand Blade Ice Soul Blade. The blade, made of ice crystal shards that shone like diamonds, cut through Audrey’s waist with a dull thud.
Audrey was swept back by the powerful force, and her gorgeous mage robe was slashed open, revealing her fair skin beneath.
As he grabbed the transparent mask, Watson’s eyes immediately saw its attributes.
[Silver-tier special item, Great Sin Mask—Pride]
[Effect: able to withstand attacks from gold-tier elites.]
[Side effect: the host’s emotions will become very volatile after wearing it.]
[Additional effects: judgment (determines a person to be guilty and inflicts damage on him, causing him to suffer great pain), immunity (immune to any non-lethal damage).]
[Additional skill: protection of the evil god]
“As one would expect from the final and most powerful piece of the Great Sin Mask. These two abilities are unrivaled by the other components of the Great Sin Mask.”
As long as he judged that the other party was guilty, the other party would have to bear the consequences. It had nothing to do with physical strength. Even if he were up against a diamond or even a starlight-tier elite, as long as he forcefully determined that the other party was guilty, they would not be spared.
As one would expect from skills from Pride—that was a very proud ability.
Watson looked at Audrey and saw that she was not hurt as he laughed in his heart. She must have used her immunity ability when he attacked her.
His strength was above ten thousand catties due to his frequent consumption of Rainbow Phoenix Chicken eggs. The combined power of his gold-tier combat aura and the peak gold-tier combat technique he had just obtained was considerably beyond that of an ordinary gold-tier warrior. It was not even close to Audrey’s ability, demonstrating the power of her immunity skill.
As long as it was not fatal, he would not be injured.
Audrey turned to face him and said, “Give me my mask, Kid. Not only my mask but also the mask on your face! The Demoness Church owns the Great Sin Mask, so it also belongs to me. That universe revolves around me. Any activity that is detrimental to me will result in repercussions. I hope you will follow my advice and not be resentful.”
Audrey’s expression darkened as she touched her bare cheek.
Her motivation for attacking Blackmoon Castle was to reclaim the Great Sin Mask. She had no idea Watson would steal her mask instead.
“Yours?”
Watson scoffed at Audrey’s words. “I only know that the things in my hands are mine.”
“I think you’re courting death! Earth-elementals that wander the world, please listen to my summons and give sinners heavy shackles. Gold-tier earth-elemental magic, Super Gravity!”
Audrey chanted quickly, and an earthy yellow ball floated from her grasp. She flung it at Watson. The earthy yellow ball emitted a terrifying gravity and earthy yellow light. Wherever the yellow light covered, the space around it distorted.
The earth got quite heavy. The ground began to collapse and sink in a radius of dozens of meters. Layers of circular fractures emerged on the ground, with Watson at the center. He had no expression on his face as he felt his body become dozens of times heavier.
The abrupt rise in gravity would be enough to cause his body to collapse if he were a simple mage. He was still a warrior, though. His strong physique and the fact that he was in gold-tier armor weakened the effect by more than half.
He raised his hand, and then there was a thud as he was about to counterattack. Not far away, the astrologer pounded on the staff in his hand, and Audrey’s enchantment vanished; it became invisible.
The astrologer walked to Audrey’s side and stopped her from continuing her attack. “Audrey, I’ve told you. You’re not allowed to attack that youth.”
“Lord Astrologer, he took my things. He—” Audrey was furious. She did not want to attack either, but Watson had taken her things. If the person standing in front of her were not the astrologer, she would not be able to suppress the anger in her heart.
“Forget it. It’s just a mask. After the Demoness Church was destroyed, the Great Sin Mask had already been reduced to pieces. that mask can be used as compensation for the damages caused by our invasion of Blackmoon Castle.” The astrologer consoled her softly before he turned to look at Watson. “Young man, are you satisfied with my arrangements? I’ve shown my sincerity. I think we can sit down and have a good talk.”
He had shown his intention of stopping the war. Since he had given up on the Great Sin Mask, Watson should be able to calm down then.
“I have nothing to say to you.”
Watson extended his right hand in answer to the astrologer. A horrifying surge of chaotic-elemental magic spilled from his right hand, transforming into a gray river that surged toward him.
Boom!
A dozens-of-meter-long deep gully was blasted into the ground. In pain, the astrologer and Audrey retreated dozens of meters. The astrologer was fine, but half of his beard was gone. Audrey looked much more miserable, and more than half of her clothes had been washed away, leaving only a few scraps of cloth to cover her womanly parts.
Audrey’s face turned hot as she felt the scorching gazes of others around her. Her entire body trembled as she reached out her hand to hide herself.
She was Pride, and being seen naked was a massive humiliation for her. “What are you all doing standing there? Kill that little brat as soon as possible! If that little brat does not die today, I am going to kill you all!”
“Yes, President!”
The Mage Guild and the North Wind mercenary group did not dare to gaze at Audrey. Their expressions were somewhat conflicted.
They had some regard for Watson at that moment. He had refused to budge on the truce proposal in the face of the astrologer’s continuous attacks. Such tenacity was all too rare in that world. Stubbornness, on the other hand, would frequently lead to disaster.
“Audrey…”
Audrey’s loud voice stopped the astrologer’s speech; she said, “Lord Astrologer, that is enough. I understand you value that child’s feelings. You are a well-respected senior in the kingdom, and I respect your decision. But think about it carefully. Is he deserving of your care? He has not even become your disciple yet, and he is so rude toward you. Will he become even more arrogant as he grows stronger under your care? If he were to become a diamond-tier elite, I believe he would even assassinate His Majesty.”
Audrey’s words caused the astrologer’s eyes to flicker. “He’s a child, after all. It’s normal for him to have such a temper. However, you are right. If I were to nurture someone who would ultimately harm the kingdom, it would be my negligence.”
He had been attacked by Watson a few times, so the astrologer was a little angry.
He had already bowed his head and attempted to calm the child. Watson simply did not appreciate his generosity. Was it not only an invasion? He could rebuild the town if it were destroyed. Was it necessary to be that angry? Did he genuinely believe the astrologer did not care about his dignity?
The Astrologer raised his head. He could not hide his feelings of sympathy, and he wanted to kill Watson for being so disrespectful even though the young man was extremely talented. Watson did not even look at them; instead, he picked up the mask he had taken from Audrey’s face and said, “Fusion System, activate.”
As his voice faded, the shattered transparent mask turned into a beam of light and flew onto Watson’s face. It caused Watson’s face, which looked more beautiful than a woman, to emit a holy light instantly. A platinum-tier powerful aura descended on him.
At that moment, the Great Sin Mask had finally been reassembled.
“Am I seeing things? That kid has restored the Great Sin Mask?”
The astrologer’s pupils constricted. He knew that Watson was wearing the Great Sin Mask. He had seen it from the moment he arrived. Back then, the King had ordered the extermination of the Demoness Church, and he was one of the participants.
After the Great Sin Mask had shattered, the King had ordered many artisans to repair it. In the end, no one in the kingdom was able to do it. The item that no one could fix had been restored in Watson’s hands.
The astrologer took a deep breath, reached out, and pressed Audrey’s shoulders that heaved in anger. “Audrey, I think that we still have to consider whether we should attack that youth or not.”
Not only could he fuse battle techniques and improve them, but he could also repair weapons. Watson had a talent that he had not heard of, and he could not bear to attack him.
“Lord Astrologer!”
Audrey’s eyes reddened. If the astrologer had not held her down, she believed that she would have jumped up in anger.
