Chapter 457 Assault Time
Everyone looked at it taking its shape gradually, turning into a demonically majestic gate with Tengu heads on both pillars of the gate, their black wings spread, and their mouth spewing out demonic blue wispy flames.
The gate's pillars also had eccentric blue and violet patterns as they lit up after it completed forming and words appeared above it.
[Raven Tengu's Gate]
Suddenly, the gate turned wispy and bent circularly before it streamed like a flowing energy and entered Rin's Magic Cage, standing in the cage in a miniature form.
"Got it," Rin smiled.
"We'll enter it later," Lilith nodded and took out her Artifact with a faint smile. "Well, I got another Umbrella and it's cool, but unfortunately it's not a weapon."
Her artifact was a black Umbrella with green and blue chaotic patterns.
[Umbrella of Protective Decite]
_Artifact rank: A
_Effect: You can use this umbrella to create a defensive barrier up to 50-meter radius. The barrier can protect those inside from all external harm for 10 seconds, on top of activating one of the two bonus effects for those inside according to the user.
—> Bonus Effects: 1. Healing Rain 2. Dizzy Rain.
_Cost: 25,000 Chakra (Fixed)
As everyone read the effects of the Artifact Lilith shared, she said, "Healing Rain will heal our injuries if I use this barrier on us and if I decide to trap enemies within the barrier, I can use Dizzy Rain that will make them dizzy, which should consume their Aethir and soul energy if they try to resist it.
"These Artifacts are good indeed," Erix laughed.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"Here's my Artifact," Aria grinned and took out a beautiful palm-sized sparrow with colorful wings and a crystal crown on its tiny head!
"That's rather unique," Rin raised her eyebrows. "It's alive."
Aria shared its details and everyone curiously looked at it.
"Its rank is lowest, but I like it," Aria's face showed a dimpled smile as she really liked her Artifact.
[Bird of Paradise]
_Artifact Rank: C
_Effect: A bird that can cleanse all negative effects on selected living beings within 5 kilometers.
_Cost: Depends on the targets' negative effects, maximum 30,000 Chakra.
_Note: This artifact has a chance to override the negative effects of higher-ranked Artifacts unless those higher-ranked Artifacts' main effects are related to status alignment on targets. Against those, this Artifact only has a 1% chance of success.
"It's ranked C, but its usefulness is indeed good," Rin nodded with a grin.
"And it's cute," Aria softly giggled as the bird sat on her shoulder and pecked her cheek.
"Yep. It even has the power to override more powerful effects, "Lily was surprised and smiled, "Well, I happen to get an Artifact that's opposite of Aria's."
She shared her Artifact's details as everyone looked at the painting with a dark gold frame, but only darkness on its canvas.
[Painting of Dread]
_Artifact Rank: S
_Effect: You can target anyone facing the painting and trap their consciousness in the Painting of Dread for 1 minute.
_Cost: 50,000 Chakra fixed.
"Holy, this is powerful!" Erix was startled.
The others also did the same to check it.
[Moonhunt's Domain]
_Any member can invoke this feature.
_Effect: Cover the Throne Hall's territory area into the domain protected by Moonhunt Rabbits. The number of Moonhunt Rabbits is 10 times the number of invaders.
—>Moonhunt Rabbits will only do suicide attacks on enemies and a new Moonhunt Rabbit will spawn every 30 seconds.
_Duration: 30 minutes.
"This is wonderful," Nira's eyes glowed with a broad grin, "Defensive features are best for early because it increases our chance to remain in this game longer."
"Those rabbits will annoy the hell out of enemies," Rin said with a laugh.
The others nodded with smiles as they remembered the trials.
As the group had finished their business here, they entered the portal and returned right back to their Throne Hall, Korin was already there sitting on the floor cross-legged to recover.
"I believe someone is targeting us," Korin opened his eyes and said as soon as the group arrived.
He waved his hand and showed five different screens with different photos.
Three of them had Ragna's image and the other two had his group's image that passed by their area. Explore more adventures at empire
"What? He has the Heavenly Nimbus Shen like me," Rin exclaimed in surprise as soon as she saw the cloud Ragna was riding.
"You have a Heavenly Nimbus Shen?" Korin frowned, "Why didn't you say it before? Anyway, we can't waste time on this discussion. Just don't use that anymore."
Erix, Rin, and others couldn't help but wryly smile.
Nira coughed and nodded, "Yeah, these two are actually Patron realm members. Master Tenebria also doesn't know that yet."
Korin rolled his eyes and it looked very funny on his serious visage.
"This is good news generally, but not now," Korin gestured to them with his, pointing at an empty space, "Sit and start recovering. I was scouting around for hours and have marked 7 spots to visit."
"But the first one is to destroy a Throne Hall," Korin said sharply with a cold glint in his eyes. "As soon as everyone is recovered fully, we'll launch our assault."
"And," Korin looked at everyone and faintly smiled, "Good work in the trial. The reward is satisfactory."
"We got artifacts," Nira grinned.
Korin nodded as he understood the artifacts' impact early, "We'll crush a Throne Hall before the Break Time occurs."
"We have 11 hours before that. Let's be quick and hope that we do not get entangled with this group for now," Korin said as he waved his hand and dispersed the photos before entering meditation to recover.
The others also entered meditation and started recovering.
...
"Ragnaaa! Where are we settling? You know we wasting our time, right?" Grace said with a long face and pout. "The group is dissatisfied. They just finished a Trial, but we have to settle our Throne Hall."
Ragna was floating high atop his Heavenly Nimbus Shen with his long, wild, white hairs wildly flung as he faced powerful winds.
"I found a Heavenly Nimbus Shen in this game and I want it," Ranga plainly said with his arms crossed. "However, I understand the situation. You can put the Throne Hall in anywhere in this area."
Grace looked at the spiritual map Ragna provided and exclaimed, "This is good! We finally got an area with challenges.
"Tell them to complete the challenges in this area," Ragna nodded before lightning flickered in his eyes. "I'll move on my own and complete challenges and stuff while finding that owner of Heavenly Nimbus Shen."
"Don't get into trouble alone and if you do, better call us!" Grace said with a cute harrumph before she left.
