Chapter 2498: Miracle of the Seal and the Saint
"Did you make it?"
Dorothy's voice reached his ears, and Shad came back to his senses from the information that emerged in his mind. He smiled and made a gesture to her that it was all right:
"Congratulations, Dorothy. You have successfully become the first girl to record a 'miracle' in the Sixth Epoch. The miracle of the Silver Moon God that you recorded has allowed me to learn a new magic. It is somewhat similar to the [Seal of Hiton] of the Church of the Sun, but its protective ability is not as strong."
But the advantage of the new magic is that you don't need to hold a sword to cast it, just the corresponding hand gestures are enough. And although [Hidden Seal] can resist any energy and physical damage, it does not resist mental damage, and it does not have the effect of "invisibility under certain conditions".
As for the characteristics of [Nightfall Seal], they all correspond to the effects of the "miracle" displayed by Shade. The arrival of night severely weakened the power of "light", and the arrival of night also provided shelter for Shade.
This is what is meant by “reading miracles to seek power”, except that this time Shad gained his own power.
"Ms. Louisa, this is truly an amazing achievement. The Silver Moon God should even allow you to become His Saint."
Fiona exclaimed that the girls from the Fifth Age knew better what they had accomplished. This made Dorothy a little embarrassed, but everyone could see that she was very happy.
Xia De simply told the four ladies about the effect of [Night Seal], and naturally received the suggestion of "then give it a try".
Light attack magic is the most widespread magic, and the three witches and Dorothy naturally have mastered it.
This time, it was purely to test the effect of this new magic, rather than Shade's immediate combat reaction ability, so Shade had to cast the spell first and then they could attack:
"Night Seal!"
Xia De was still standing in the center of the huge ritual base at the end of the spirit temple, with his left hand forward making a seal gesture. As the spirit flowed, the night immediately swam around his body, quickly forming a complete spherical ink-colored shield that enveloped Xia De.
The Shade inside is still clear when looking outside, but the Shade inside the shield when looking from the outside is very blurry.
"Shad, are you ready?"
Miss Felina, Fiona, Megan, and Dorothy stood in front, behind, left, and right of Shade, and after getting Shade's confirmation, they began to attack:
"Feliana's Witch's Light!"
"Arrow of Light!"
"Blade of the Holy Judgement!"
"Match Glow-Death Curse!"
From the appearance, [Nightfall Seal] is really similar to [Hedon Seal] except for the color and the lack of stray light, and the light intensity around the seal shield will also be reduced when casting.
As for the actual protective effect of the seal, its effect of resisting pure light attacks, such as "Filianna's Witch Light", is stronger than the [Hedon Seal].
[Nightfall Seal] is also very effective in resisting mental attacks such as [Mind Blast].
The [Nightfall Seal] is not completely incapable of resisting other attacks. In fact, it can resist any luminous attack. The effect of the [Nightfall Seal] in resisting "fire" and "lightning" is basically only slightly worse than that of the [Hedon Seal], but its effect in resisting other attacks is far weaker than that of the magic of the Church of the Sun.
Moreover, the [Nightfall Seal] really had no effect against physical attacks. The lightning spear that Fiona threw was easily blocked by the shield, but the small stone that she just rolled up with her tail and threw was able to easily pass through the shield formed by the seal and hit Shade's chest.
Therefore, if we compare the effects of Shade's [Seal of Heaton] and [Seal of Night], it is hard to say which one is stronger and which one is weaker, as the two have different defensive directions.
Then Miss Felina created another darkness and asked Shade to try the invisibility effect of [Nightfall Seal]. Then everyone found that the invisibility ability was stronger than most illusions, even better than Shade's [Red Butterfly Illusion]:
"Isn't the main function of this seal defense, but invisibility?"
So when Shade was casting the spell, he suddenly had an idea and wanted to try what would happen if he cast the [Seal of Heaton] and the [Seal of Night] at the same time, but the result was of course that he could only cast one of the two seals at a time.
The advantage of the "seal" type of spells and magic is that the casting process is extremely simple, and no spells are required, and even the life ring does not need to be released to achieve the best effect. The few disadvantages are that no one can cast two different seals at the same time. Even if there are ten hands that can make ten different seals at the same time, only one of them can work.
And Shad's success in trying to learn magic by reading "Miracles" not only means that Dorothy, with the help of Megan, really compiled new magic in the Sixth Age, but also means that other people may be able to learn the [Night Signet].
Of course, learning divine arts generally requires corresponding beliefs. But in a few cases, for example, as long as one has a very deep understanding and experience of the power of the sun, even if one is not a believer of the "God of the Sun and the Earth" [The Lantern Old Man], one can still learn [The Sigil of Heaton] and [Sunlight Healing].
Now that they were at the Temple of Night, Dorothy and Megan both tried to read the miracle. Although they didn't succeed the first time like Shade did, after multiple attempts, both ladies finally succeeded in learning this new magic. They happened to have the Enlightenment-[Night] and Miracle-[Night] runes respectively.
However, when they released the seal, Xia De could clearly sense the existence of the seal. This special perception was only effective within a hundred meters around him, but it also meant that Xia De did have a special sense of other people's [Night Seal], so no one could become invisible in front of him because of this seal.
"After all, this is my miracle."
Thinking about this, I asked the other two ladies:
"Ms. Felina, Fiona, don't you want to try?"
Shade did not forget them either, but Miss Felina smiled and rejected Shade:
"We who come from the Fifth Age should not learn the miracles of the Sixth Age gods. Even if the Tree Father approves of this time leap, we must not go too far."
"Although this is going well, the question is, why can the 'miracle' I use only be learned in the temple of the ancient god, Silver Moon Sage? Is it just because it is related to the night?"
This is what Shade was thinking when the group returned to Moon Bay from the Randall River Valley, and "she" just said gently:
[Yes, why is that? ]
Since the passage leading to the [Night Temple] still exists, the girls on the ship were asked to try to learn this magic.
Subsequent results showed that when both conditions of "Night Temple" and "Miracle Stories Written by Dorothy" were met, 30% of the girls on the ship, including Ajelina and Emilia, could learn new abilities.
But among them, only Luvia, Megan, Dorothy, and Audrey mastered the magic - [Night Seal], while the other witches and witch followers mastered spells.
Compared with thaumaturgy, the effect of spells is of course somewhat inferior, and those who have mastered thaumaturgy are all very clear as to why only these people have learned thaumaturgy.
Afterwards, Miss Aurora proposed another test, which was to use the special light stored in the [Empty Bottle Fruit] to attack the [Night Seal], and the result was quite unexpected:
"What? Magical sigils and spells can actually resist those special lights?"
The witch found this incredible, but Dorothy, who recorded the "miracle", thought it was normal:
"After all, this is the miracle used by the Silver Moon God to fight against the Distorted Light and the Distorted God."
After saying that, she glanced at Shade. As the one who recorded the "miracles", she could be called a "saint" in ancient times, just as Fiona said.
Although Dorothy Louisa did not receive the blessing of God for this record, she clearly felt that God was by their side when she was learning magic just now.
"Want to say it?"
The voice of Lecia came to my mind. Lecia at the Yodel Palace was looking at the document about the kingdom's export trade data for the second quarter of this year.
"of course not."
Dorothy glanced at Shard again.
"This is just a guess. Maybe there's something wrong with our perception. And even if it's true, what good would it do for us to tell it?"
Leicia spoke to her in a relaxed tone:
"Dorothy, no matter what Shad is, I love everything about him. But if your guess is true, isn't our behavior blasphemous? After all, he licked you last time."
The writer took the initiative to cut off the connection, and while complaining about her "sister's" boldness in her heart, she decided to forget about it for the time being.
The resistance of [Nightfall Seal] to the special light is not complete, and of course it is not as good as that of the "Lion of Light Armor". But [Nightfall Seal] is still the most effective and simplest way to resist those "special lights" so far.
Even if it is impossible to completely avoid damage, at least when casting a seal, being hit by the light directly will not immediately melt into light. In addition, the learnability of [Nightfall Seal] makes this magic and spell completely popularizable.
Now, as the seventh chosen one, Mr. Ptolemy Albert can gradually calm the distorted light of the material world. But just like other disasters have not completely disappeared, the disaster of special light will still appear in every corner of the material world.
The "special light infected people" represented by the three monsters "Light Bulb Man", "Exploding Pus Man" and "Light Messenger" will also be a big trouble that cannot be completely eradicated in the Yuewan area for a long time.
Before today, the only ones who could face the light and survive were Shade and the coroner, but now any ring sorcerer who has mastered the magic or spell [Sign of Night] is eligible to be rescued.
