Chapter 80 Cursed Weapon, Echoes of Dawn

"Boom!"

The projectiles fired by the magic cannon are not entirely solid; they are formed by a specially made core that has been imbued with different properties through a magic circle, thus possessing high attribute damage and being adjustable.

At that moment, what was being fired at Bronya was undoubtedly a Holy Light cannonball!

Although the Golden Lock was jokingly called the Lock That Will Always Break, and there were even a lot of derivative memes on the forums, its control effect in the short term was still quite good.

However, the actual performance of this thing is so different from the description in the skill text that it "forms an unbreakable binding chain that will never break," which has led to a large number of fan-made memes.

It's the same concept as a spear that can unleash a "world-destroying blow".

In conclusion, although the Golden Chains have never performed well, Bronya in her weakened state was unable to break free of the chains immediately.

The next moment, the holy light cannonball slammed into her solidly!

"boom!!"

Bronya was suddenly thrown backward, the golden chains being pulled and stretched along her as she crossed half a street, finally crashing into a house at the end of the road, causing the two-story building to collapse immediately.

"Let's follow!"

Yu Che chased after her without hesitation. One magic cannon shot was definitely not enough to deal with Bronya; it was hard to say whether it could seriously injure her. He absolutely could not let his guard down.

Of course, Yu Che only said these words to the four people who were above LV30. As for Lis and the others, Yu Che had already instructed them to help the guild leader activate the magic cannon and then immediately retreat and leave the town.

The paladin and the robed adventurer caught up first, followed by the guild master, with Yuche and the priest lagging behind.

The middle-aged priest flipped through the holy book in his hand and applied several group buffs to You Che and the others, including increased attack and defense, defensive shields, holy flame enchantment, and so on. As a result, the five of them were enveloped in a dazzling radiance.

If you add some different special effects and buffs, you'll probably be able to see people soon, and there will only be five glowing, legged balls.

You Che then understood that this priest was a support-oriented character.

That's not bad, at least it ensures better survival. It's quite comfortable to team up with a high-level support priest, but it seems that we can only rely on the remaining two for offense.

Ahead, the paladin carried a spear that shimmered with light and flame, while the robed adventurer lifted his cloak to reveal a pair of gauntlets also wreathed in holy flames. The two of them approached the collapsed building first.

However, You Che's wandering instincts suddenly kicked in, and he felt a chill run down his spine. He shouted, "Wait! Don't get too close yet, wait until she comes out—"

"boom--!!"

Before You Che could finish speaking, a black light flashed in front of him, and the paladin was sent flying backward!

With a thud, he crashed into the exterior wall of a house across the street, collapsing most of the wall, and then fell silent.

"————!?"

Everyone stared in astonishment at the center of the ruins, where Bronya stood amidst the broken walls and rubble. Her wings of light had vanished, and the ribbons had coalesced and wrapped around her arms.

The punch that sent the paladin flying was just a casual swipe of hers.

"Be careful, never take her attack head-on!"

You Che's face darkened, and he immediately raised his voice to remind him.

Although the teammates this time were all of high level, they were all temporarily formed. Yu Che did not know their respective attributes and skills, nor did he have the opportunity to explain Bronya's abilities to them in advance. He could only give instructions on the spot.

Bronya's form is not a transition between the first and second phases, and besides, clones cannot enter a second phase.

This is just one of her many forms of power. In this form, Bronya loses her light wings and gains exaggerated frontal combat capabilities.

In the Four Heavenly Kings raid during the game era, this form of hers could kill any character except for those who specialize in defense with a single punch.

That unfortunate paladin was out of the question for the time being, so the fighter immediately stepped in and engaged Bronya in combat, while the guild master, wielding a strangely shaped crossbow, provided support from the sidelines, much like a priest.

You Che also didn't step forward. Right now, three level 30+ characters were dealing damage, and he couldn't get involved, nor did he want to be affected.

Actually, for him, Bronya switching to melee mode is beneficial, because in this form her speed is significantly lower than in the previous light wing mode, giving Yuche more room to maneuver.

As for dying from a single punch—basically, Bronya's attacks, regardless of her form, always result in instant death when they hit him.

Of course, Yu Che didn't think the three priests could defeat Bronya, but if they could weaken her a little more, Yu Che's tactics would have a better chance of success.

Seeing the fierce battle raging over there, You Che took a deep breath and slowly drew the long sword from his waist.

This was the weapon he inherited from Gareth, the commander of the Knights of Dawn, and it was also the key trump card that gave him the confidence to go toe-to-toe with Bronya's clone.

【Echoes of Dawn】

[Type: Straight Sword]

[Quality: Perfect (Cursed Item)]

Attack Power: 20

[Attribute Correction: E]

[Item Description: A silver-gray longsword, its surface riddled with cracks, seemingly on the verge of shattering completely, with a faint pulsation of light visible at its center. This cursed equipment, imbued with the power of holy light, harbors the resentment of the fallen Knights of Dawn and will continuously influence the wearer's will.]

[Trait: Increases the wearer's maximum magic power by 50%, but when equipped, there is a 75% chance of inflicting the "Frenzy" status ailment when using any skill other than the exclusive combat skill "Sixfold Light Burst".]

[Sixfold Light Burst: Each time it is activated, a lightsaber is summoned from mid-air and pierces the ground, creating a circular field of holy light that continuously drains health. If lightsabers are already present, half of the user's mana can be consumed to detonate all lightsabers, dealing both physical and holy light damage to enemies within the area. Each summoning of a lightsaber consumes 4 mana.]

If we only consider this weapon as a sword, its performance is quite mediocre.

Despite being a weapon of perfect quality, its stats are poor, its attribute bonuses are very low, and due to the broken blade, it also suffers from issues such as erratic attack trajectory and low durability.

Despite its low base stats and low scaling, and its difficult-to-use and stamina-intensive attack mod, this sword is one of the preferred weapons for several speedrun routes with limited conditions.

It's all because of its unique combat skill, Sixfold Light Burst—this sword is a pure "combat skill launcher".

Although it may not seem remarkable in its description, if used correctly, this combat skill has the potential to disrupt the balance of the early game!

However, just like other equipment and skills in this world, those statements that were originally just descriptive content in the game will actually take effect in this world.

So as soon as You Che drew his Dawn Echo, he heard a cacophony of voices around him!

But those weren't curses, pleas for help, or words of resentment; on the contrary, what Yu Che heard were devout prayers to the gods.

Even the originally noisy sounds gradually became orderly, until only one sound echoed – it was You Chuan's own voice!

"Hmm—that's about right!"

Despite his headache, You Che gripped his sword tightly and swung it forcefully: "Now you should listen to me!"

He forced down his headache and turned to look at the battlefield ahead. He had only drawn his sword about a minute ago, but the group had already demolished half a street.

You Che stopped being distracted by the voice in his mind, saw the movement of the people over there, and then raised his sword high and swung it down with force!

"----go!"

A lightsaber then appeared above Bronya's head and quickly fell down!

"Buzz",
