The Medallion -
Chapter 1683 The Unexpected Turning Of Events
Seeing the rapidly approaching roots, Rocky dared not to be careless. Wasting no time, he leaped into the air, trying to avoid the roots at all costs. However, they still kept on chasing and pestering him aggressively.
Because he was still unable to fly or stay in the air for a longer time, Rocky had to replace a way to deceive these roots with his current abilities.
Then, an idea suddenly popped in his head, making him reveal a sinister smile at the corners of his mouth. In an instant, a flash of spiritual light surged out and enveloped him. Soon enough, several figures that looked exactly like him emerged in midair.
"Is he trying to escape from the roots using some kind of illusory technique? I'm afraid this won't be effective against the Spiritual Flower Technique!" One of the senior officials shook his head as he saw what Rocky was trying to do.
When the Spiritual Flower Technique was activated, the spirits of the flowers and the roots were driven and manipulated by Valeria's spiritual power. Therefore, they became sensitive to the target's spiritual power, only attacking the strongest one. Hence, even if Rocky used an illusory technique to create several avatars, the roots would know which one to attack since avatars were usually not as powerful as one's real self.
Hearing what the senior official said, the other officials could not help but feel worried about Rocky.
Sure enough, just as what the senior official speculated, the roots did not pay any attention to the other phantoms. Instead, they directly went for Rocky's real body. However, as Rocky's body was entangled by the roots that were manipulated by Valeria, it suddenly disappeared into thin air.
Obviously, Valeria was shocked to her core. She thought that she finally captured Rocky, but it seemed that he was able to outsmart the attack of the Spiritual Flower Technique. She was in utter disbelief because she had never met an opponent who managed to escape from this technique.
However, Valeria was not the type of person to immediately give up just because of a single mishap. Hence, she immediately controlled the wood spirits to search and locate Rocky's spiritual power. But after some time, her efforts were in vain. It seemed that Rocky's original spiritual power had actually vanished without a trace. Moreover, the strange thing was that the phantoms that he created earlier were still scattered everywhere.
"Wait. I don't think that it is just an ordinary illusory skill...
It must be the Devilish Phantom Skill!"
"What? The Devilish Phantom Skill?!"
"But that is impossible! It is a secret skill owned by the royal family. How could he possibly learn it?"
The officials were in utter disbelief, but they realized that it must be the only rational explanation.
The Devilish Phantom Skill was a high-level secret skill. The phantoms created using this skill would possess the same attacking style and strength as the real body. It could be said that it could create the user's perfect replica.
However, the most terrifying feature of the Devilish Phantom Skill was that the real body could switch its position to any of the phantoms at any time. Consequently, it would be pretty difficult to capture the user's real body. Hence, when Valeria's roots captured Rocky's real body, it instantly switched positions with one of the phantoms.
Valeria also heard what the officials were talking about. However, she refused to believe that Rocky was capable of executing such a high-level skill from the royal family.
The next moment, Valeria manipulated the wood spirits again to rush towards Rocky's phantoms.
However, the same thing just happened. As the roots captured a phantom, it would just suddenly vanish.
"Girl, why don't you just give up already? You're just wasting your effort and energy. You won't be able to capture me anyway," the phantoms that were scattered around Valeria uttered at the same time. "Damn it! Stop mocking me!" At this time, Valeria continued to fume in anger because of embarrassment.
The next moment, the wood spirits moved aggressively and chased after all the phantoms in the area. However, she still could not catch Rocky's real body.
"I can't believe this! I didn't expect that our Godly Genius could actually defeat Valeria's Spiritual Flower Technique!"
"With his sheer talent, he would bring honor to the Ghost Fief!"
Just when the officials had already become excited, thinking that Valeria had no more ways to deal with Rocky, the wood spirits suddenly gathered and transformed into a huge wooden man.
Swoosh!
Then, the wooden man raised its thick arms up in midair and began smashing wildly in all directions. Soon enough, fissures appeared on the ground within a dozen meters, and even the surrounding buildings were affected. The area had instantly become a mess.
Seeing this, the officials decided to retreat to avoid getting caught up with their battle.
However, the situation became even more uncontrollable. In order to force Rocky to reveal his real body, Valeria allowed the wooden man to destroy everything in the area without hesitation. It seemed that she was willing to pay any price just to bring Rocky down.
Finally, Rocky thought that this was getting out of hand. Thus, he immediately withdrew his phantoms and revealed his real body. "Hey, why are you so pissed off? I just kissed you by accident. I did not do it intentionally. You don't have to be so violent!"
"You!" Valeria was instantly rendered speechless. She did not expect that Rocky would actually talk about it out loud.
The officials who heard it were also astounded. They could not believe that their Godly Genius had already done such actions even before they were formally engaged.
At the same time, although the engagement was just a formality for the alliance of the two fiefs, kissing someone as beautiful as Valeria would make anyone envy Rocky.
In fact, Rocky deliberately said it out loud, believing that it would embarrass Valeria to the extreme.
Then, he thought that she would immediately run away from the scene.
However, Rocky underestimated her courage and pride.
With a furious look on her face, Valeria almost lost her mind. At the same time, the wooden man went berserk and madly rushed towards Rocky. Moreover, the spiritual light that was emitted became extremely unstable.
"Go to hell, you filthy bastard!" Valeria shouted angrily. At this point, her only goal was to erase Rocky from this world.
As the wooden man got close to Rocky, its spiritual light suddenly turned to ripples and spread out within a hundred meters.
Boom!
With a deafening sound, a dazzling white column of light soared into the sky and almost covered the sky above the mansion.
Meanwhile, Gilbert instantly sensed the change of the spiritual power in the mansion. Thus, he immediately sent some of his men to investigate what was going on. Upon learning that Valeria and Rocky were actually fighting in the mansion, he was stupefied. Immediately after, he rushed to the area where the two were fighting.
When he got there, he saw that the buildings within a hundred meters were utterly destroyed. At the same time, several people and officials were injured.
At this moment, Valeria stood in the middle of the ruins with a ferocious look on her face. She was gasping for breath and was intently looking at the position where Rocky was standing a few moments ago. "Miss Valeria... What did you do?" It never occurred to Gilbert that the fight between the Godly Geniuses would become this intense that Valeria was so determined to kill Rocky. Although he didn't know what exactly the reason behind these actions was, he found it very ridiculous. In fact, he thought of reconsidering their alliance with the Flower Fief.
"Sir..." It was not until she heard Gilbert's voice that Valeria regained her senses. Remembering everything she had done, she finally realized that she made such a huge mistake.
At the same time, Gilbert was still at a loss. But he wasted no time and quickly ordered his men to search for Rocky, whether dead or alive.
Strange enough, they weren't able to locate Rocky's body even after searching the entire ruins.
"Sir, I really don't want to think about it, but could it be possible that the Godly Genius has already been turned into ashes?"
"I am also thinking about that. The strike that Miss Valeria unleashed just now was so powerful that even the officials would not be able to withstand it, not to mention our Godly Genius who hasn't reached the Emperor Realm yet."
"That's terrible. If he was really killed, the situation will be troublesome!"
Some officials could not help but express their concerns and opinions.
Hearing this, Gilbert, who was still wearing a serious look on his face, eventually shifted his gaze towards Valeria. He was already thinking of avenging Rocky if he really turned out to be dead. After all, the Flower Fief must pay the consequence of what they had done to them.
At this time, Valeria could just lower her head while biting her lip as she was consumed by regret.
However, just when everyone was already convinced that Rocky did not survive, a figure slowly emerged from the ground under the ruins, looking a little disheveled.
"Whew! That was close! I barely made it by activating the Earth-diving Skill in time!" This man was none other than Rocky.
It turned out that right before the wooden man exploded, Rocky knew that he was in great danger. Hence, he immediately activated the Earth-diving Skill and dived into the ground to avoid the direct impact of the fierce blast.
"The Godly Genius is still alive!"
All of a sudden, exclamations of surprise echoed throughout the air around the ruins.☐☐
