Revive Rome: Wait! Why not make the empress fall in love with me first?-Chapter 522 - 32: The Precise Meaning
"Sis, what are you doing?"
Half an hour later, Nora withdrew her gaze from the porthole and suddenly asked.
"Nothing much, just thinking about business matters," Kapaxilin said evasively.
In reality, she was watching Aske’s online lesson through the perspective of the Golden Skull.
At the same time, in the BI monitoring room of Ratlan Palace, the priests were also closely watching this man’s teachings.
In a chaotic underground garage, two members of the Golden Skull were exchanging fire with dozens of gang members, nearly pinned down without cover—God knows why there were so many gang members in an underground garage.
"Eleanor?" Aske called out from behind a load-bearing column.
"Ready," the Eleanor behind another column responded, her body suddenly shining.
She swiftly activated the Unyielding Holy Sword and the Light Transformation skill she had grasped when she was trapped by the "Space Birdcage" of a demigod, which allowed her body to transform into flowing will, freely aggregating and flying through the air.
The next second, she felt the will inside her weaken abruptly, as if a large chunk had been carved out.
"Watch closely!" Aske finished "plundering" and was about to start teaching.
"Okay!" Eleanor immediately stopped the Unyielding Holy Sword and Light Transformation skills, and activated Will Fog.
With the augment of the Will Law, her Will Fog could spread within an area of seventy or eighty meters around her, and she could perceive every detail of change within the fog, which perfectly helped her see Aske’s movements clearly.
Aske dashed out from behind the column. Appearing suddenly on the battlefield, he was almost immediately fired upon by the gang members.
Intense gunfire erupted, and countless bullets "passed through" him without causing any blood or flesh to burst out.
Through the Will Fog, Eleanor, hidden behind, could see clearly that the moment the bullets hit him, the struck parts of his body transformed into flowing will light lines, allowing the bullets to freely pass through.
This was the Light Transformation skill under ultra-fine control, with abnormal reaction speed enhanced by physical power, and precise, small-range skill usage that negated the lethality of the bullets!
Peggy, hidden behind another cover, also watched Aske with bright eyes. She recognized that this technique was the one her master, Agrippina, had used, though her master had shifted flesh to neutralize attacks, whereas Aske used "Transform into Light."
Nonetheless, in this respect, Aske’s skill level was definitely not inferior to a demigod.
"Precise," Aske charged past an obstacle, explaining, "The most important thing is precision."
"The smaller the range of precise skill use, the less spirituality it consumes, and the longer the endurance."
"Whether it’s Law Skills or Extraordinary Swordsmanship, it’s more or less the same."
In the distant BI monitoring room of Ratlan Palace, the priests sat calmly in their positions, watching the screen with admiration, and someone had picked up cola and popcorn from outside and distributed them to colleagues present.
"This guy is impressive."
"More thrilling than action movies!"
"No, no, no, action films can’t shoot like this. Can a person dodge bullets? This is a fantasy movie."
"If all Transcendents were like him, our Church Court would have been wiped out long ago."
"I can’t pretend I didn’t hear that last comment; I have to report it to the Bishop later."
The priests discussed cheerfully and then saw on the screen Aske magically produced an iron block.
He tossed it high.
Suddenly he had a baseball bat in his hand.
Hit.
The moment the baseball bat struck the iron block, there was a flash of white light on the screen.
The iron block instantly transformed into a cannonball, directly piercing through five or six layers of cover, blasting away all the gang members hiding behind, and on the wall at the edge of the garage, it created a deep, bottomless hole.
"Wait a minute!" The BI monitoring room exploded immediately, "What just happened?"
"Did Raphael analyze it? What Law Skill is that, which can produce cannonballs?"
"Humans operating cannons? Did you attach a jet engine to a baseball bat? Or is it a disguised power warhammer?"
"Quickly replay the previous video!"
At this moment, the priests stopped eating popcorn and drinking cola, and started frantically operating and analyzing everything.
The previously showcased light transformation skill, though stunning, was merely a defensive skill. Many sequential abilities could achieve similar effects, such as Flesh and Shadow.
The method to crack it was simple, continuous saturation bombing, forcing the opponent to deplete their spirituality.
However, Aske’s subsequent swing, the "home run," left the priests truly perplexed.
Firstly, it was an offensive skill, and its power was vastly exaggerated. According to Raphael’s data, after Aske hit the "iron block," it shot through the shelter at nearly two thousand kilometers per second, penetrating the underground garage’s concrete walls, diagonally piercing through the foundation breaking through the road, subsequently piercing two abandoned buildings before finally flying out of Solomon City. It traveled approximately 20.4 kilometers horizontally in the air, and ultimately landed in a field to the east of Radispoli Town, creating a massive crater.
Then, it disappeared.
According to satellite and on-site surveillance data, the "iron block" and the "baseball bat" in Aske’s hands disappeared simultaneously, suggesting they were objects created by some Law, and couldn’t last for a very long time.
However, the destruction it caused still existed. Whether it was the pierced shelters, walls, foundation, or abandoned buildings, and the initial velocity of two thousand meters per second, all indicated its formidable destructive power.
If someone fired such a shot over ten kilometers towards Ratlan Palace, even the Cardinals would probably be frightened to death.
What exactly was that ability?
On-site in the underground garage, Eleanor was so stunned she almost dropped her jaw.
If it were not for the analysis from the Will Fog informing her that it was her Unyielding Holy Sword, she would have suspected it was some other Law Skill mastered by Aske.
The swing with the baseball bat held by Aske was actually Iron Cutting in the Holy Sword State. Eleanor had used a similar move to attack the Giant Dragon when previously assassinating the Emperor.
However, the effects of the two moves varied significantly. Eleanor’s gun body was attached with densely concentrated will, directly striking the remnants of the power armor.
Since the remnants couldn’t withstand the impact force of the Unyielding Holy Sword, they shattered before being fired away, invisibly reducing the "cannonball’s" power.
As Aske swung, the Unyielding Holy Sword was swiftly activated at the moment the baseball bat collided with the iron block.
The speed of the Unyielding Holy Sword’s activation was so fast that those present could only see his arm "flicker."
The radiance of the Holy Sword wasn’t distributed evenly over the body like Eleanor’s Light Angel form; instead, it extended from Aske’s heart solely towards his right hand, enveloping the baseball bat in his hands.
Thus, both the thickness and brightness of the glow far exceeded Eleanor’s Light Angel form.
Since the iron block didn’t directly collide with the will light, it wasn’t smashed into fragments and retained the initial shape of the cannonball.
Also, the force over the block suddenly received a power boost from the Holy Sword, allowing it to achieve a terrifyingly initial velocity in an instant.
As soon as the iron block was fired, Aske swiftly deactivated the Holy Sword State, hence the shot achieved astounding levels in power, range, and consumption of will.
It was levels above Eleanor’s technique.
"Did you understand?" Lost in thought, Eleanor suddenly heard Aske’s voice from behind.
Abilities plundered have a time limit, especially the Unyielding Holy Sword belonging to Extraordinary Swordsmanship, which also consumes a vast amount of spirituality to maintain.
Therefore, Aske merely demonstrated an advanced technique briefly, immediately ending the plunder state, then swiftly retreated behind a nearby shelter, and deployed the ambush skill to slip back.
"I understand," Eleanor looked at him with admiration. "Localized coverage, instant opening and closing, and controlling the timing—that’s what you mean by ’precision,’ right?"
"Yes," Aske nodded. "Exactly right."
"What does that mean?" The priests in the monitoring room were confused, but as Raphael refined the video down to microseconds per frame and replayed the striking details repeatedly, everyone finally understood the meaning behind their words.
So it was the Unyielding Holy Sword... This guy, turning the legendary Holy Sword into a scalpel, it’s simply not human!
At the scene, Eleanor still wanted to excitedly say something when suddenly Peggy’s head popped into her line of sight.
The Blood Clan girl standing between them used her Flesh Power and seemed to grow from a high school girl to a university student, "growing" 20 centimeters taller, aligning exactly with Eleanor’s height, just right to block her view of Aske.
The way you just looked at the Squad Leader...there’s admiration in your eyes! Peggy stared at her with hostility.
"Um, your belly button is showing," Eleanor pointed out, referring to her belly button. Due to the violent increase in height, her original top no longer covered her stomach.
Peggy quickly covered her flat and smooth abdomen with her hand, her height "shrank" back down, returning to her usual stature.
