Chapter 115: One Against Five
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Watson stared at the five women in front of him. The woman in front wore a horned mask, and her words were the most aggressive.
A woman in a black eye mask stood behind her, and she laid on a pillow as her body hovered with her bottom pointed upward. Bubbles popped from her nose from time to time; no one knew if she was asleep or it was all a ruse.
The other three women included one who wore a lot of jewelry, one covered in a black hooded robe, and one who looked very young.
“One, two, three, four, five. According to Father, there are seven Great Sin Masks. There are five people here with five pieces. In addition to the Gluttony Mask on my face, it means that all the masks are here except for the Pride Mask.”
Watson was a little happy when he thought of that. He had wondered about how he would get the other masks, but those people had gone to him instead.
Without any hesitation, Watson charged toward the ox-horned woman who was closest to him. As he did that, he took a look at the attributes of the mask on the other party’s face.
[Silver-tier special item: Great Sin Mask—Wrath]
[Effect: able to block the attacks of gold-tier elites. After wearing it, the host’s emotions will become very volatile.]
[Additional effects: anger (the more angry one is, the higher one’s combat strength. The disadvantage is that one will lose a certain amount of rationality), giant transformation (allows one to transform into a giant, changing according to the degree of anger)]
[Additional Skills: Evil god’s protection]
It looked like it had the same attributes as the Gluttony Mask, with some additional effects. Gluttony could devour, while Wrath could transform into a giant.
As Watson pondered the five women in front of him, they also sized him up with conflict expressions on their faces.
They saw how Watson’s platinum-tier spell had killed Lady Gluttony. She had disappeared entirely, and the original magical array carved onto a few of the peaks had been destroyed as well; that had taken them more than ten years to accumulate.
They had not dared to venture outside when they realized that Watson could cast platinum-tier spells. However, they did not expect the same spell would harm Watson’s body either. He breathed unevenly as he hovered in the air; he could not even stand properly.
That was obviously a good opportunity for them to add insult to their opponent’s injury. Plus, they could not let the Great Sin Mask fall into other’s hands. So, they decided to charge forward.
‘That young man is a powerful mage. His close-combat strength is not that strong. I will have to rely on my close-combat ability to win.’
Lady Wrath’s body expanded and turned into a giant that was more than ten meters tall with that thought in mind. The ox-horn mask on her face distorted gradually as thick smoke flowed from her nostrils. A massive pair of flesh-colored wings on her back flapped gently as it drove her to throw a giant fist at Watson, and with one punch, it shattered the air.
Watson did not dodge the incoming attack. He looked straight at the deep black combat aura that covered the fist. He raised his eyelids, and his pupils disappeared into a greenish-gray color as a huge greenish-gray eye appeared behind him.
“The gods have changed, and the stars have changed. Only the ancient earth has not changed. Please grant me the power to seal all things! Gold-tier spell—Petrification Magic Eyes.”
“Stupid! You’re too stupid! That kind of magic does not affect me at all.”
Lady Wrath smiled mockingly. The Great Sin Mask had a natural resistance to similar evil god spells, especially the Petrification Magic Eyes. It did not affect her at all.
In the next moment, her fist could land on Watson’s face to blow his head off. At that moment, Fury heard a whistling sound from above her head. Two clouds that stretched for a hundred meters swooshed down on her. It looked like Watson did not mean to petrify her; it was those clouds above her!
When she saw cloud-shaped boulders, Lady Wrath used her hands to try to stop them.
Bang! Bang!
Two muffled sounds echoed as she managed to tear those boulders apart. As she was about to turn to continue with her attack on Watson, her opponent had disappeared.
“I’m Here!” A voice echoed from behind her. Watson stretched his hand out and pressed on her back. “Devour, activate.”
With a swoosh, it sucked the giant’s flesh and blood, which was the embodiment of Lady Wrath’s anger. Then, Watson pulled her mask off forcefully.
He saw a pretty face with short yellow hair and exquisite facial features; she still had traces of anger in her.
“From now on, this mask is mine.”
Watson grabbed the Wrath Mask, turned around, and flew away.
“Give me back my mask.” The woman who symbolized anger touched her face, gritted her teeth, and charged at Watson again.
The other women went with her.
“Use 100 gold coins to strengthen it!”
“Use 1,000 gold coins to strengthen it greatly!”
The woman who symbolized greed took out many gold coins from her bosom and sprinkled them downward. When the gold coins touched the air, they turned into a golden light, merged with Lady Wrath’s anger, and increased her aura.
She immediately arrived in front of Watson; she raised her fist furiously—it was covered with dark-elemental combat aura. Since she had lost her mask, her attacks were much weaker, so Watson did not bother with her. He was only interested in the young girl in the fox mask. She had also rushed in front of him and laughed at him. It sounded like a silver bell. “Do you think I’m pretty?”
In an instant, scenes of countless beautiful naked women flashed in front of his eyes. Watson even saw Wendy and Capella in those images. He knew that it was a hallucination.
Then, the black-haired woman who was sleeping on the pillow had also arrived. She raised a hand, pointed at him, and said, “Sleep.”
A deep sense of drowsiness enveloped Watson; it made him want to close his eyes.
Roar!
At that critical moment, a beastly roar echoed. The Golden Flash had kept its distance so that it would be easier for Watson to release his magic. However, it had flown back. Its lion’s head opened its mouth and shot more than ten meters of gold-tier magic that looked like sunlight, and the sheep’s head shook slightly as a thick green poisonous fog spread outward. The Demoness Bandit Gang members who were close to Watson had to move away.
“Phew, that was close. I almost got hit.”
Golden Flash was a gold-tier magical beast. With its presence, Watson waved his Heart of the Sea staff to set up layers of mine cannonballs around him—those women could not get near him at all.
“Come on, Young Master Watson. You’re the best!”
Allen hovered in mid-air nearby; he waved his fists without getting close.
“Aren’t you the Blackmoon Knights’ captain? Your master is fighting with all his might, and you’re here to watch the show?” Sven stared at Allen with a strange expression. He had heard about the rumors that surrounded the Demoness Bandit Gang, so he knew to stay away; he was not affected by the petrification spell.
“It’s okay. That’s because you don’t understand our young master. He is very powerful. If I go there, it will only hinder him and affect his performance.”
As Allen spoke, he gave a thumbs-up to Watson, who had removed the white fox mask from the young girl’s face. “It is just as I’ve expected. He had managed to get the third mask in such a short time. I reckon that he’ll be able to obtain all of them in a moment. My respect for the young master is really like an endless river...”
How could a person be so shameless?
Sven frowned darkly. “I admit that Young Master Watson’s strength is great. However, it is useless for him to snatch the Great Sin Masks. Those masks can only be used to their full potential by someone who has been acknowledged by the evil god and has mastered the dark-elemental combat aura. It still needs to be reassembled. At most, it is a weapon that is between gold and silver-tier.”
He did not mean to strike a low blow; it was the truth.
Allen glanced at him with a strange expression, “Reassemble? You still don’t know Young Master very well. He can even use junk to create silver or even gold-tier equipment. Those evil god masks in his hands, well, who knows what they will look like!”
As the two of them talked, a blinding light appeared from afar. Then, they heard the command. “Fuse it.”
The ox-horn and the white fox masks in Watson’s hand disappeared at the same time. It fused into his face as the rabbit-head mask that he wore suddenly changed. The carving changed from a rabbit to a terrifying beast that was completely black—it had horns and only one eye.
