Mystic Overlord: Reading Gives Strength-Chapter 1117 - 1111: All-Out Defense

This spell is similar to the initial encounter's spell shield, likely originating from the same defensive spell source. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Quickly assessed the spells surrounding the enemy.

After Ronald confirmed [Sin of Greed], he didn't hesitate further and charged towards the opponent, gripping the Sword of Saint Catherine.

The next second, a white light flared up.

Before Ronald reached the opponent, the [Guardian Angel]'s defense activated first, indicating that the opponent had initiated an attack unnoticed.

"..."

"Probably a spell extracting physical strength…"

Ronald quickly discerned the opponent's ability.

Although the spell's effect was completely isolated by the [Guardian Angel], Ronald could vaguely sense it through the cumulative value from "Capitalism".

A caster skilled in both healing and defense, while also capable of draining the opponent's strength—certainly not an easy opponent!

While pondering, Ronald had already reached the enemy.

Taking advantage of the opponent's momentary distraction, he raised the Sword of Saint Catherine high, and in the next instant, the flame-enveloped blade slashed down directly on the opponent.

Crack—

With Ronald's full strength, this slash was extreme in both power and magic augmentation. Despite [Nine Commandments Secret Gathering]'s caster had preemptively cast a defensive spell, it was not very effective.

As the sword fell, the defensive spell on 'Governor' shattered along with a deep gash across the chest.

"Sunia!"

Even before the blood from the wound splattered, the voice of 'True Name' resonated immediately from 'Governor'.

Whoosh—

In an instant, a gale arose.

Summoned by 'True Name's spell, it was the free-blowing sea wind. The situation was so urgent that he didn't even issue an oral command, merely summoning the gale.

In the uncontrolled state, several humans on the sea without cover were immediately disoriented by the wind.

By the time Ronald regained control of his body, he saw that 'Governor' had moved to his north. The slash wound had healed entirely within seconds.

After all, as the original manuscript holder of [Nine Commandments Secret Gathering] and skilled in healing, it was not simple.

For others, this sword would nearly cost their life, while 'Governor' could erase it instantly, leaving only the pained expression on his face as evidence of his severe injury.

In contrast, 'True Name', now only a soul unaffected by bodily sensations, quickly warned:

"'Governor', his speed and strength are ridiculously strong, you must focus on handling him!"

"I knew it since I died earlier!" 'Governor' replied grimly.

In fact, his chest was still faintly aching.

The improvement didn't mean the previous torment vanished, his brain still recalled the pain from that hit!

But before 'Governor' could catch his breath, the companion inhabiting him spoke again:

"Careful!"

This intense, urgent warning.

Corresponded with the front air where Ronald's figure was dashing toward.

Seizing the gap in their conversation, Ronald refused to let go of the chance, pursuing relentlessly.

This time, the splendid [Chariot of God] approached rapidly, casting light in their eyes like a blazing sun.

'Governor' squinted, hastily raising his hand.

Instinctively deploying his strongest defense in front—being support personnel, this was his first reaction.

Bam!

A crisp clash emerged between the sword blade and the spell.

Ronald swung the sword mightily, but the result was quite unexpected.

——'Governor' flew out!

Unlike formidable foes who could face Ronald equally, 'Governor's spell prowess was remarkable, but his physical constitution lacked severely.

His full-strength defensive spell, while able to counter Ronald's blade, couldn't withstand the tremendous force.

So before the spell shattered, or Ronald exhausted his strength,

His body was involuntarily propelled backward!

During this process, Ronald even noticed the opponent's face flushing from the unbearable force.

"This..."

"Such a case is truly rare."

Shaking his head with a sigh, Ronald accelerated his pace to capture the enemy.

Meanwhile, while flying backward in the air, after quickly recovering from the damage incurred during this force, 'Governor' heard 'True Name's advice again:

"'Governor', his attack is extremely fierce; it's impossible to hold out with only defense against him. You must first defeat him using the strongest attack you can!"

'Governor' sounded quite helpless:

"But my original text isn't adept at combat!"

"As you know, within the organization, I've always been responsible for healing and defense, never in direct assault!"

"..."

The soul state 'True Name' was momentarily dumbfounded.

He originally thought 'Governor' surely had one or two attack-type trump cards, yet it turned out he was entirely inept at offense.

This is common among weak ordinary casters.

But even an original manuscript holder like this leaves one helpless.

"If so, then do your best in defense." Finally, soul-state 'True Name' devised a plan, "I'll gather magic power to prepare a spell against him. However… this should be the last help I can offer."

'Governor' promptly replied:

"We will do our best!"

Thud—

Almost simultaneously with their agreed strategy, Ronald caught up to 'Governor' again.

With the previous awkward experience of the opponent being thrown back, this time Ronald did not just swing his sword to strike, but simultaneously chanted:

"Starting from the relationship between the entire Earth and the sky, let's begin shaping our perception!"

The effect of [Equilibrium] began.

Ronald slashed towards his enemy, while the power of the stars also yanked 'Governor' fiercely towards him.

"Aaaaaah!"

Under the clash of the two forces, 'Governor' screamed miserably.

Yet, the fully defensive [Nine Commandments Secret Gathering] caster was not ordinary; even in this situation, he forced himself to elevate his position and fled upwards despite his injuries.

This caster, specializing in defense, was indeed tough.

Ronald marveled slightly in his heart, then prepared to launch the next attack. But right then, his heart suddenly tightened.

——Danger is approaching!

Responding to the [Instinct] warning, Ronald looked down.

Only to find that the already massive waves, at some point, had formed a patterned flow below, which further evolved into a terrifyingly scaled circle formation!
