I created my own system
Chapter 110 : 110: Autopilot
Continuation of Apollo''s POV
I thought I got one strike in but suddenly the symbols on the scythe glows and a burst of blood and flesh comes out. I felt nauseous from the stinking stench of blood but then a different scent came in, it was the scent of something burning.
I felt like everything was moving slowly, and my eyes could see everything clearly. How the dirt from the ceiling above falls on us and how his blade and my fist tried to push each other, I can see it all.
More dirt fell off from above and the lightning blasted the ground and fell right on top of the pile of flesh. Then hundreds of mouths formed under the blackish blood and mangled flesh and absorbed the power of the lightning.
That move was similar to how the authorities got devoured however something is different. I can see how the energy didn''t dissipate like what happened at the authorities and instead the energy from the lightning accumulated in a single place.
[Something is coming!]
Yes, I can see it so I move, I need to get some distance so I timed my retreat when he moved his scythe to retrieve the flesh. The energy gathered inside it became one with the weapon. A blue light was then generated, a light of blue lightning.
I heard the roar of thunder along the sparks of lightning, it brightly shone from the symbols embedded on the scythe. Then a chant from the archbishop echoes along it.
"KINGDOM OF HEAVEN!"
His gospel invokes more power and is combined with the absorbed power of his weapon.
It was a combination of light and lightning.
"Beautiful"
I could only say while the nimble scythe came right next to my neck.
It was really fast, however...
"Hahaha" I laugh as my eyes follow a shadow.
...she was faster...
"BANG!"
I saw the archbishop flying straight to the ceiling no it didn''t end there, the strike was so strong he burst to the surface.
[Creator]
"Yes?"
[We should not piss her off]
The ring of lightning created a sparking lightning tornado. And as the spell gained momentum I saw the scythe glow and a pile of flesh began to spread out.
I already know what it wants to do. The archbishop plans to use the flesh as a shield and devour my spell. The pile of blood and bones would turn into a globe protecting the one inside it. However, before this could even happen a magic circle appeared on the walls of the lightning tornado and a shadow came out of it.
"PANG!"
A crisp sound hits the archbishop''s ears as Alicia draws her fist. The mountain-like flesh was immediately blown away and knocked to bits. A smirk was written on my face while Alicia teleported back to me. The punch was good and as soon as the flesh was gone my spell came forward speeding up to attack my enemy.
From the expression on the archbishop''s face, I can tell he was surprised by Alicia''s sudden appearance however he soon composed himself and waved his scythe to cut down my spell. I could see him casting a gospel on his weapon as he brought down the blade towards the rotating lightning.
I expected it would be hard to break through my spell however I was wrong.
A strong gust of wind hit us due to the waves of energy brought by my spell being cut down.
[It''s coming]
"Yes I know"
My eyes were suddenly blinded by a sudden light though it wasn''t just normal blindness, it''s the type that makes your eyes feel like burning while your senses disappear. Somehow I think it was a similar gospel I encountered while fighting Sergio. It''s the one that steals your senses while clouding your mind and body.
The only difference between the two is that the one the archbishop uses is much more powerful and painful than the one from Sergio.
The gears in my head move however before my mind can process what should I do my body moves on its own. I still don''t know what''s happening however I know that somehow my body moves strangely and irregularly.
I wanted to cast a spell but without sensing anything I wouldn''t be able to know which direction my spell should go. For me to cast a spell I need proper imaging and information about my surroundings without it my spell wouldn''t function properly.
[I can provide the information]
My eyes were stolen but it''s not the only way for me to fight back. My mind was then filled with images and I could see that Alicia and my body were fighting closely against the archbishop.
"How can my body move like that?"
I wondered after witnessing how me and Alicia attacked the archbishop. It wasn''t just fighting our techniques and support to each other are well timed. It''s as if we have been fighting together for years.
[To answer your question I put the Creator''s body in autopilot mode and as for Lady Alicia, I have scanned her and it turns out she used a spell to create this perfectly balanced combat compatibility with you]
I see so it was a spell, to think she had her own sets of spells but then my mind caught something on Jeremiah''s words.
"Autopilot?"
I was confused for a moment when I heard an unfamiliar word.
