[Fallen God Art: The Gun of Blasphemy]

Ever since he found this move in the skill list, Double Leaf didn’t hesitate to classify it under ’fortress-level ultimate weapon’ for a very simple reason: although its cooldown time is non-existent, the cost of a successful cast is truly too great. If consuming ’50% of maximum Health Points and 80% of maximum Faith Points’ is within an acceptable range, then the subsequent ’5% Faith Value cap’ and ’3% Magic Points cap’ are truly terrifying.

For a simple example, if Maeve Xiangluan had 100 Health Points, 100 Faith Points, and 100 Magic Points, and she was in perfect condition, using this skill would consume 50 Health Points, 80 Faith Points, and from that moment on, her Faith Value cap would permanently decrease by 5 to become 95, and similarly, her Magic Points cap would become 97.

It doesn’t seem like much, but if Maeve were a player and liked to frequently use this skill, after less than twenty uses, this character would basically be ruined, beyond saving. Of course, this assumes she doesn’t have talents like [Purely Powerful]or [Demon King]to back her up.

In short, the release cost of this Divine Art is too high and would cause irreversible damage to the caster. If Double Leaf herself had a similar skill, she would probably dismiss it as soon as she got it, as if it didn’t exist at all.

But!

The person standing here at this moment is not ’Double Leaf’ from the Realm of Innocence, but ’Maeve Xiangluan’, crafted by the Book Spirit within the Inherent Barrier, who does not exist in the real world.

In other words, no matter how great the cost, it doesn’t relate in the slightest bit to Double Leaf, who is snoozing outside the Inherent Barrier.

So, there won’t be any problems!

It’s worth noting that Double Leaf had previously done something as drastic as ’blackening Motan’s game account and depleting resources he painstakingly accumulated for months in the common pool without any psychological burden’.

Even ’Hei Fan’, who is arguably her friend, could still be happily sabotaged by her, so using Maeve—a person who no longer exists—for some tricks meant Double Leaf naturally bore no psychological burden.

Thus [Fallen God Art: The Gun of Blasphemy]became the trump card in her and Frank Hughes’s plan.

There was nothing sophisticated about it; the entire plan’s core was simple, brutal, and mindless.

First, while Frank buys time, Double Leaf will activate [Fallen God Art: God Technique Arrays - Vital Burial]as discreetly as possible and deliver the poisonous needle - Hundred Tongues, early entrusted to her, underground through the Twisted Seed, silently delivered to Fourteen’s feet.

Then, under the premise that the God Technique Array successfully activates, Frank will shoot a poison arrow while fully attracting the opponent’s attention. Of course, it’s only a poison arrow that might not even critically injure a High-level Professional, but the unaware Fourteen will still instinctively defend. At this time, Double Leaf would directly manipulate the Twisted Seed to deliver the extremely potent poisonous needle - Hundred Tongues into Fourteen’s sole.

Finally, if the first two stages succeed, Fourteen, simultaneously affected by [Vital Burial]and [Hundred Tongues], will inevitably suffer a significant drop in power. Especially after being implanted with [Secret Burial Beacon], his body functions and all resistance will drop to a very dangerous level, becoming a live target for the trump card [Fallen God Art: The Gun of Blasphemy].

One shot to take out what is undoubtedly the final boss of this dungeon, then hauling its corpse to the seaside to regroup with the Gladiator partners who had ’lived and died together’, and confronting the leaderless [Torture], scattering and fleeing what is already a squad in disarrary, this was Double Leaf and Frank Hughes’s entire plan.

And this somewhat hurried plan went unexpectedly smoothly during execution, up until the point where Double Leaf summoned [The Gun of Blasphemy], prepared to deliver the fatal blow to Fourteen, where no unforeseen situations had occurred.

Hmm, in other words, it was when Double Leaf summoned [The Gun of Blasphemy], and intended to crush Fourteen with it, that the issue arose!

Pop~

With an unexpectedly discordant light pop, a beautiful light purple small flower emerged from Double Leaf’s hair strands.

[Oh wow, dressed up now, you flat-chested thing, you have some free time, huh...]

Not realizing the gravity of the situation, Motan made a sarcastic comment in his heart, outwardly gazing at Double Leaf gently, though 80% of his attention was actually on Fourteen.

However, he didn’t remain distracted for long because soon Motan realized there seemed to be something wrong.

Firstly, the huge God Technique Array behind Double Leaf was gradually collapsing, and at the same time, one light purple small flower after another was ’growing’ rapidly from her body.

Not just from her hair, but from Double Leaf... or rather from the entirety of ’Maeve Xiangluan’s’ body, except for her face.

"Frank."

As the half-way drawn [The Gun of Blasphemy] and the God Technique Array simultaneously disintegrated, turning into twinkles of Long Light disappearing into the air, Double Leaf strained to turn her head to look at Motan, saying word by word: "I have something to tell you..."
