Chapter 591 Conclusion
Vincent soon witnessed the battle between Claire and Luna…
Luckily, they decided to fight one-on-one so he wasn\'t too worried that the place would be destroyed. Agatha has a very destructive ability after all.
Although Luna\'s bloodstone has the power to corrupt everything, she knows how to control it and only affects a definite target.
His only concern about this battle was the fact that the Celestial Beings has a natural resistance to the power of corruption thanks to their mysterious Celestial Energy.
It means that the Corruption may not work well against Claire.
"Don\'t worry… Luna\'s Bloodstone has improved a lot after she refined it a couple of times…" Agatha said after seeing Vincent\'s frown.
Her words finally reminded him how the Bloodstone had been enhanced after their battle against the members of the Creed of Eiqehin…
"You\'re right… Let\'s see how it fares against the Celestial Armor." Vincent nodded as he looked at the battle between Number 80 and Number 10.
Based on their ranking, Claire should be the stronger one. However, Luna isn\'t just equipped with a Celestial Armor, she\'s also carrying several Legendary Items with her.
As soon as the battle started, Luna didn\'t hesitate to trigger the first ability of the Armament.
Focused Corruption!
A wave of black energy traveled through the air and headed toward Claire… She wasn\'t unfamiliar with the power of corruption but she felt amused that a Celestial Being is using it.
"It feels like I\'m fighting against a Demihuman…" Claire commented as she wore her Celestial Armor…
Then, without any hesitation, she swiftly activated the Celestial Mode!
This mode is the fourth mode of the Source Cube and it is something that Vincent can\'t activate because he only has Pseudo-Celestial Energy.
Even if the cube turned into a Sentient item and could act on its own, it simply can\'t activate the fourth form without any Celestial Energy, to begin with.
Luna didn\'t look surprised as she also did the same, she triggered her Celestial Armor and activated the Celestial Mode!
An intense battle had finally begun!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Their extreme speed and their mighty force could create shockwaves that could break apart trees and stones in the surroundings.
At this point, Vincent almost failed to see their movements! Their movements weren\'t just fast but also unpredictable!
If not for Vera\'s blessing, he wouldn\'t have an idea of what was going on!
"This… What\'s happening? Why did that rock explode? Even that---"
Boom!
Another explosion near them had occurred and Vincent protected his group by summoning a Mana Shield.
Nerissa stepped back as she was surprised by the sudden development. She couldn\'t hide her shock as she had never expected that Celestials can fight this way…
She had seen some battles of Celestial Beings but it was never this dangerous and incomprehensible.
\'Is it because of their number? Is this the real strength of the Celestial Beings?\' Nerissa thought as she stepped closer to Vincent.
\'No, these Celestials have recovered more Celestial Energy that the ones I\'ve met before. Perhaps they\'re already at their peak?\' She added after seeing another explosion of ground nearby.
She can guess that the two Celestial just stepped into the place and exchanged one or two moves. Nerissa then decided to control her Crystal Tier Automaton and placed it in front of her as she felt safer this way.
"Who\'s winning?" Nerissa asked as she can\'t really follow the two Celestials.
Vincent didn\'t answer immediately and observed the battle for a few more seconds before he commented.
"Luna can surprisingly fight equally against the Number 10… She\'s only Number 80…" Vincent muttered after recalling the difference in their rank. He couldn\'t help but wonder how is that possible.
She then glanced at Agatha and confirmed that she also seemed surprised.
"Does the Celestial Mode provide a similar burst of power?" He asked.
Nerissa didn\'t know what Celestial Mode was so she knows that it wasn\'t her being asked. She glanced at the Celestial Being beside Vincent and noticed her nodding.
"You can think of Celestial Mode as a program in the armor that increases the power output of the Celestials by 10 times."
"Ten times…" Vincent nodded as he repeated in contemplation.
Although both Celestials have basically received a similar boost, it still depends on their base strength whether they can overwhelm their opponent or not.
After over half an hour of battle, the Celestial Mode of their armor has finally been depleted.
Thud!
Thud!
The two Celestials finally stopped battling and landed at the central area of the resting area as they stood there facing each other.
Clink. Clink. Clink…
Their armors retracted and Vincent realized that even though they are wearing their Celestials Armor, they still sustained several bruises on their bodies.
No, it was Luna who had many purple bruises that can be easily seen on her arms, legs… There might be others hidden under her clothes so Vincent quickly took out a health recovery potion.
On the other hand, Claire, the Number 10 Celestial\'s condition is difficult to see since she\'s wearing full-body tight clothes. Nevertheless, she doesn\'t look happy even after seeing Luna\'s condition.
"Why is that red stone so powerful?" Claire asked with a frown as she removed the tight gloves she was wearing…
There, one could that her skin had turned darker and she was definitely affected by the Corruption.
"Do you want me to remove it?" Luna asked.
Her Bloodstone Armament can use Absorb Corruption so it can treat her easily.
"It\'s fine… I want to try the efficacy of the girl\'s pill as well." Claire replied as she pulled out a tiny pouch on her belt.
She took out a pill from it and swallowed it without hesitation.
Soon, her corrupted hands turned brighter and slowly returned to normal.
The effect was surprisingly quick…
"As expected of a pill made by a Tier 5 Alchemist… It\'s very potent." Claire commented in surprise.
This time, Vincent immediately understood that it was a pill that Faviona had made. At this time, Vincent also gave Luna a bottle of potion. This isn\'t only for her injuries but also to replenish a bit of her Celestial Energy.
