Chapter 477 Time Reversal
The reason Roy chose to attack the third eye between Jubileus's forehead was that he knew that this eye was the manifestation of the divine artifact the Eyes of the World, and it was the source of her immense magic power.Moreover, this eye should be an external object to her! After all, the original owner of the Eyes of the World was Archangel Aesir, and she was only using this divine artifact to make up for the loss of her original strength. Currently, Roy did not know what weaknesses she had, so choosing to attack this eye was the best choice.
However, Roy's sudden stab with sixty-four-fold strength failed to pierce this eye. When he was about half a meter away from the shining eye, an invisible force blocked the tip of Frostmourne. He gritted his teeth and increased his strength with all his might, but this invisible force barrier subtly maintained resistance equivalent to Roy's strength, preventing Frostmourne from advancing at all.
Roy could only let go of one hand and press his left hand against the eye. When he felt the invisible barrier on his palm, he immediately activated Dark Cold and tried to freeze it with magic power.
Cracking sounds came. From Roy's hand, black ice crystals began to spread along the outline of the invisible barrier. But what he did not expect was that just as the ice crystals spread out in an arc, they began to shrink the next second before finally retracting back into his palm.
Roy was shocked because he did not feel any heat coming from this eye, but his ice disappeared just like that. This feeling was as though his magic power was… neutralized!
He wanted to test if the other elements would also be neutralized, but Jubileus no longer gave him a chance. Her fluttering braids all around curled and danced, closing in on her forehead from all sides. The target was Roy!
Clang! Roy could only raise his hand and use Frostmourne to block these enormous braids flying over. The tips of the braids hit Frostmourne's blade with tremendous force. In the air, Roy could not offset this force and was sent flying, turning into a meteor in the sky.
Seeing things going wrong, Rafaro immediately twisted his body and waited on the path Roy was sent flying, planning to use his body to catch him.
Roy slammed into Rafaro's body and stopped. He finally stabilized his body and could not help cursing. "Damn it!"
Although it was only a short attack, Roy had already noticed one thing. The Eyes of the World had the same resistance to physical and magic power attacks. It was quite troublesome, but it seemed to be only passively defending and would not counterattack. The attack with the braids just now was Jubileus's own consciousness.
In other words, although Jubileus had used the power of the Eyes of the World to restore her strength, she seemed to be unable to guide and drive the Eyes of the World to attack.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRoy guessed that this might be because she had just merged with the Eyes of the World. As time passed, it was hard to say whether she would be able to activate the power of the Eyes of the World…
She's already so powerful now. What will happen if she can use the power of the Eyes of the World? Roy thought.
In the holy storm that erupted just now, only Roy and Sparda had narrowly escaped, while Berial, Madam Styx, and the others were heavily injured. Although they did not fall from the sky of Heaven, they were barely maintaining their flying. Their bodies were all emitting smoke from the holy light burns, and their skin seemed to have melted as they screamed miserably again and again.
The holy light suppressed the self-healing ability of their bodies. Roy knew that Berial and the others would not be able to help for the time being, so he spread his wings and rushed forward again to stall for time with Jubileus.
Roy attacked from the front and continuously made moves against the Eyes of the World, attracting Jubileus's attention. On another side, Sparda poured magic power into his feet and swiftly climbed up along her braids. When the distance was right, he jumped back and forth between the braids and finally landed onto her shoulder. Holding the Sword of Sparda, he slashed at her neck like a storm.
Under Sparda's continuous attacks, a large gap was cut open on Jubileus's neck, revealing the golden holy light inside her body. But this gap quickly closed. Jubileus turned her head to look at Sparda by her neck, and two powerful golden rays shot out from her eyes. The golden rays were so fast that Sparda could not even dodge. One pierced through his wings, directly exploding off a wing in the middle, and the other pierced through his right abdomen. Sparda was blasted away by the violent explosion and spun while falling from the air.
With a flash of light, Roy appeared below Sparda. He reached out to grab his leg and threw him to Rafaro, temporarily saving Sparda. Then he flew up again and circled behind Jubileus.
Seeing that the distance was about right, Roy immediately bent his tail and pointed the tip at Jubileus. A purple Transfiguration Beam shot out and directly hit her.
"Turn into chocolate!"
With Roy's roar, Jubileus's enormous body suddenly turned black. It was the color of chocolate!
However, after shooting out the Transfiguration Beam, Roy found that his magic power was almost drained in an instant! It could not be helped. Jubileus's strength far exceeded Roy's, and her body was so huge that the magic power consumed by the Transfiguration Beam increased exponentially, immediately causing his body to feel empty.
Even so, Roy knew that it was not the time to stop. The Transfiguration Beam could only last for the minimum of one second. This attack opportunity was almost fleeting, so even though his body was empty, he gritted his teeth and squeezed out the last bit of magic power. The moment he finished transforming Jubileus, a bolt of lightning hit her.
With a bang, the bolt of lightning directly shattered Jubileus, who had turned into chocolate. Her enormous body collapsed into countless charred black fragments that flew in all directions.
But these flying chocolate pieces only lasted for a moment before immediately transforming back into countless fragments of Jubileus's body. These body pieces turned into golden light spots of varying sizes, making the sky of Heaven look as though golden fireworks had exploded.
"Huff! Huff!" Roy panted heavily as he looked at the flying body fragments. With the help of the Transfiguration Beam, he had defeated Jubileus's body for the first time.
Seeing this scene, Sparda was very surprised about how Roy achieved the attack just now. It had to be known that this was the body of an Archangel, so how could it be destroyed so easily? But Roy did it.
Was that strange purple light just now his trump card? Sparda thought. It's indeed powerful. Shattered like this, even Jubileus will likely take some time to recover…
Roy thought so too. Even if the body of an Archangel was pure holy light and an immortal body, it should take a while to assemble back… right?
However, just as the two of them were thinking this, the entire space of Heaven suddenly dimmed. A gigantic illusory clock of light suddenly appeared between heaven and earth. Accompanied by dim lights and shadows, time seemed to stop!
It was not a real stop, but Roy's and Sparda's senses were affected. Under their gazes, they saw the needle in the gigantic clock move backward with a click.
The illusory clock disappeared. But after it disappeared, the countless, scattered light spots that were Jubileus suddenly gathered back together. Under the intense light, her body appeared again!
Perfect…
Seeing this scene, Roy and Sparda were dumbfounded. Of course, they knew what had just happened: time had been reversed!
"Isn't this too against the rules?!" Sparda could not help shouting.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRoy had a headache. Although he had long known that the power of gods was very formidable, being so powerful made him feel despair. With an inextinguishable, immortal elemental body and the ability to reverse time, how could they kill such an existence like her?!
"Hey, Osiris!" Sparda flew closer with difficulty. His broken wing had yet to recover, but he could still fly for a distance with the help of magic power. He shouted from afar, "That ability to transform just now, after a few more times, I don't believe that we can't kill her…"
"You stall for time while I quickly restore my magic power!" Roy said without looking over. "That attack just now consumed all my magic power!"
"Okay!" Sparda did not waste any time and rushed forward with the Sword of Sparda.
Not only him, but Berial, Madama Styx, and the others also heard their conversation, so they gritted their teeth, endured the pain from their injuries, and went up to entangle Jubileus in order to buy time for Roy to restore his magic power.
Roy stayed in the air and began to restore his magic power with the help of the ten times recovery speed of the Cold Winter Armor. At the same time, he made the souls collected on the battlefield into Magic Power Recovery Potions and drank them bottle after bottle.
"Rafaro!" While quickly restoring his magic power, he contacted Rafaro through telepathy. "Later, I'll create a short opportunity to turn Jubileus into liquid. What you need to do is to open your mouth and drink this liquid!"
"Why me?" Rafaro was stunned.
"Because I can't drink too much in one gulp!" Roy said. "Only someone as large as you can drink the most in the shortest time."
"Can we eliminate her like this?" Rafaro asked.
"Probably not. I'm not sure what kind of damage it can cause, but don't we have to try?" Roy said.
"Okay, I'll try my best…" Rafaro replied.
After his magic power recovered, Roy said, "Ready, I'm going!"
"Understood!" Rafaro replied and quickly twisted his body to approach Jubileus…
