Chapter 965: Senior Sister's Magic Eye
To be ashamed, Cassandra really almost peed her pants.
Fortunately, witches don't need to defecate, and the pressure of this Lord Black Hei Wuchang didn't last long. That terrifying unknown darkness quickly faded away.
After the terrifying darkness finally receded before her eyes and the other scenery around the room finally came into view again, the werewolf eldest miss supported her slightly soft legs and gritted her teeth, forcing herself not to sit on the ground on the spot.
Fortunately, she wasn't the only one who was shameful. Cassandra found that even the big shots in the front of the team wearing Grand Judge uniforms seemed to have been frightened at this time. For example, her mother was already covered in sweat and was also standing unsteadily, thanks to Aunt Bachi who gave her a hand.
She naturally knew her mother's strength very well. Although her frontal combat power couldn't compare to Fourth Aunt, she was still a good hand among the Upper Rank peak. But now, she was frightened like this by this Lord Black Hei Wuchang at a glance.
At this moment, Cassandra truly developed awe and curiosity about this mysterious big shot.
This was definitely a Sage-level existence, and not an ordinary Sage-level one.
However, some people performed poorly, and naturally some performed excellently.
For example, Fourth Aunt, or Aunt Bachi, etc.
But these two were both Grand Judges, so let's not talk about them. What really made Cassandra a bit discouraged was that there were some witches in the room wearing ordinary judge battle robes like her, and judging from the aura on them, the strength of these future colleagues should be about the same as hers. But she was almost peed her pants, while several people over there performed very excellently.
For example, the one wearing a skull mask, the one wearing a fierce ghost mask, or the one wearing a holy knight mask.
Although the aura on these three judges was also somewhat chaotic, they quickly stabilized.
Especially that guy wearing a holy knight mask, who actually erupted with a very astonishing fighting spirit.
And the others around them, although their performance was slightly worse, most of them reacted quickly, and each of them recovered much faster than her.
This scene also made Cassandra's face look slightly ugly.
She had always been confident in her talent and ability, feeling that she was one of the best in Night City among her peers. But just after coming to the Tribunal, she found that her performance seemed to be a bit poor, which directly shattered her years of pride.
Fortunately, the werewolf eldest miss wasn't the kind of person who couldn't afford to lose. She just quietly pinched her thigh, using the pain to force herself to cheer up.
Hmm, she would learn well from these seniors. She wouldn't always be at the bottom like this.
"Not bad. Everyone can remain calm under my authority. You are indeed rare talents. Then I have a mission I want to release. I wonder if anyone is interested?"
And at this time, the cold voice of Lord Black Hei Wuchang sounded again.
Cassandra, as a rookie who didn't understand anything, was a bit confused about this, but the werewolf eldest miss could clearly feel that as soon as these words came out, everyone in the room was refreshed, and each of their eyes lit up, just like a pack of wolves that had been hungry for a long time in the dark.
This couldn't help but make the judges excited. After all, although the Netherworld faction was still in the initial stage, judging from the last action of raiding the Vampire Thirteen Clans, this Grand Judge Black Hei Wuchang was truly generous. If there were points, she was really willing to give them.
The Tribunal's merit points were rare currencies similar to the Mana Web Library points, and their value far exceeded gold yuan. They could be used to exchange for many treasures that were rare to see in the outside world from the Tribunal's secret treasury, which was quite precious. Even Grand Judges were in urgent need of merits.
There were quite a few Grand Judges summoned today, a full twenty or thirty people. They had all participated in the last vampire action, and after tasting the sweetness last time, now hearing that Grand Judge Black Hei Wuchang had another mission, their hearts immediately became hot, wishing they could immediately start showing loyalty and begging for a quota.
Of course, this couldn't blame them for having soft knees and not having the style and restraint that a Grand Judge should have. After all, they had all heard very clearly just now that Lord Black Hei Wuchang had definitely said the two words "authority" just now, right?
That was authority, the supreme power that transcended forbidden spells.
Most Grand Judges were peak witches. Many of them were still at the stage of learning forbidden spells, and they hadn't even figured out the eleventh or twelfth ring forbidden spells, let alone authority.
That was the power that only Sages were qualified to explore, or rather, whether one could comprehend one's own authority was the standard that truly distinguished Sages from peaks.
Many Upper Rank peak witches actually had magic power that had long exceeded the standard of 900,000 Mana, and they could all master nine systems and were very knowledgeable, but they had always been stuck in the Sage assessment and couldn't pass. This was because they couldn't comprehend their own authority.
Since the birth of the witch clan, it had been about 130,000 years. In these long years, the number of top peaks was actually not small. After all, generally every thousand years, that is, in one generation of witches, about a hundred peak witches could be born.
And after accumulating for so many years, the number of peak witches in the entire witch world was really not small. Although the ones who were usually active were only the two or three hundred youngest ones, if you counted those who lived in seclusion and retired, there would be at least tens of thousands.
However, peak witches were actually the end of many witches' lives, because until the peak period, you could still rely on accumulation and hard work to endure. Theoretically, as long as you lived long enough and were willing to calm down and study magic well, then every Great Witch had a chance to become an Upper Rank peak. It was just a matter of speed.
But the Sage pass was truly a natural chasm.
Among those tens of thousands of peaks, there were actually four or five thousand Upper Rank peaks qualified to take the Sage assessment. After all, the older and more ancient the peaks were, the more they could basically endure to the Upper Rank. And peak witches all had resurrection means, so they wouldn't die easily. So, if there were no accidents, this number would only gradually rise over time.
But even with so many applicants, the total number of Sages in the witch world was still less than a hundred.
From this, one could see how difficult it was to comprehend the power of authority.
Everyone had heard that authority was actually divided into three, six, and nine grades. For example, Lord God King's destiny authority, Lord Dragon King's heavenly heart authority, and Lord Demon King's original sin and contract authority were all the most supreme existences among authorities.
And elemental authorities such as earth, fire, water, wind, and thunder were relatively ordinary and lower-ranked.
Of course, even lower-level authority was still authority. Dealing with them below the Sage was definitely a sure thing. It's just that there were highs and lows among Sages. If one could comprehend Upper Rank authority, it was usually more powerful than lower-ranked authority.
It was said that the combat power difference between Sages no longer depended on magic power and magic intensity like ordinary witches, but more on the authority level and comprehension fit. And existences like the Three Kings who comprehended heaven-defying authority early on were almost invincible among Sages as soon as they ascended to Sages.
Anyway, the Grand Judges present were definitely geniuses among geniuses. They were different from those old guys who relied on years of accumulation to become peaks. Most of them were very young, and most of them were less than ten thousand years old. But even so, few of them dared to guarantee that they would definitely be able to comprehend authority in the future.
That was not to mention any Upper Rank authority. Even if they just comprehended some relatively ordinary elemental authority, they would be satisfied.
However, the glance of Lord Black Hei Wuchang just now definitely didn't show any ordinary lower-ranked authority. What did this mean?
It could only mean that Lord Black Hei Wuchang belonged to the strong even among Sages.
If they could get the favor of Lord Black Hei Wuchang and get a little guidance from this big shot, they would definitely be able to take fewer detours when comprehending authority in the future.
Therefore, this was really not the Grand Judges bowing their heads for those mission merit points. On the surface, what they were greedy for was mission merits, but in reality, what they were greedy for was Lord Black Hei Wuchang herself.
The reason why everyone chose to join the Tribunal and become a judge was really not purely for justice, but also for better development in the future.
Don't look at the fact that judges generally had an inheritance system, but in fact, the initial judges were from relatively low backgrounds. Even now, they couldn't be called noble children. After all, families that hadn't produced Sages couldn't be called true nobles.
The best way out for these witches with ordinary backgrounds but excellent talent was to take the establishment exam and climb up, and the Tribunal was considered a relatively popular unit.
After all, in other units, you have to roll to the top before you have a chance to attend the Sage Council and get guidance from the Sages. But the Grand Judges of the Tribunal were generally Sage big shots directly. As long as they became Grand Judges, they could easily contact the Grand Judges.
It's just that even Sages had authority tendencies. After all, they were not truly omniscient and omnipotent, so it was impossible to guide everyone easily. Even Lord Pan Shen, the oldest and most powerful among the three Grand Judges, had many things she didn't know.
Therefore, there were always some unlucky ones whose power was relatively special and unpopular and couldn't get good guidance.
They originally thought that they might only be able to rely on themselves to explore and move forward slowly, but at this time, the Tribunal suddenly expanded, adding a Netherworld faction and a new Grand Judge Black Hei Wuchang, which suddenly rekindled hope for many people.
Although reason told them that it was highly unlikely that this Lord Black Hei Wuchang was stronger or knew more than Lord Pan Shen, what if?
Hmm, having hope was better than having no hope.
Therefore, quite a few Grand Judges were eager to jump ship to the Netherworld faction.
It's just a pity that although the last vampire raid mission was issued by Lord Black Hei Wuchang, it was led by Lord Clown. And now they finally saw the posture of this mysterious new Grand Judge with their own eyes.
Hmm, this wave must be performed well, striving to get a familiar face in front of the big shot.
Everyone thought this way in their hearts.
Of course, the performance of everyone present was also seen by Dorothy, and the corners of her mouth under the mask curled up slightly.
Very good, the fish have taken the bait.
She wasn't just here to show off today, but to find reliable allies later.
These Grand Judges in front of her were indeed forces that could be drawn in, but everyone was not familiar with each other after all. She still needed to find a way to win people's hearts first, so as not to have any trouble later.
And the means to win people's hearts were actually very simple, nothing more than the CPU method of big stick plus sweet dates.
The deterrence of that glance just now was a warning, in order to show the power of Black Hei Wuchang and gain everyone's awe. And she deliberately mentioned authority, which was also to scatter a handful of bait, attracting the school of fish to come closer.
However, Senior Sister is really easy to use.
Dorothy sighed in her heart.
Her glance just now was actually just trying to test the Dragon Emperor's Pupils she had just acquired.
High-level magic eyes were not just physical power, but would also transform the eyes of the soul. Therefore, at this time, even if the Home Witch was only consciousness entering Senior Sister's body, she could still use part of the power of the Dragon Emperor's Pupils.
It's just that, to her surprise, Senior Sister Senior Fan Ni herself also had magic eyes.
Nightmare Eyes.
This was Senior Sister Senior Fan Ni's magic eye. Don't look at the name as quite ordinary, but the strength was not inferior to the Dragon Emperor's Pupils she had just acquired, and it was also a half-step Jade-level existence.
It's just that, what surprised both of them was that after the two of them merged, the two magic eyes also merged, one horizontal and one vertical, finally combining into this strange and evil cross pupil.
Pluto's Pupils, because it was a new magic eye that emerged from fusion, so the two tentatively called this brand-new Jade-level magic eye this.
This was a true God's Eye.
As for its ability, it was quite simple and unadorned.
The ability of Dorothy's Dragon Emperor's Pupils was to condense dragon might with high status, and then release an unrivaled domineering momentum, making whoever she stared at kneel.
And the ability of Senior Sister Senior Fan Ni's Nightmare Eyes was very consistent with her authority, which was the dream world and fear. She could make people enter a dream at a glance, and then awaken the things they feared and feared most in the dream.
Both were magic eyes biased toward the control system, but after such a combination, this pair of new Pluto's Pupils became much more domineering.
The truly powerful place of the Dragon Emperor's Pupils was actually not dragon might, but its ability to advance the status of the master into power to strengthen the essence of the master.
Because it was a dragon's eye before, this status was displayed in the way of strengthening dragon might.
But now she was using Senior Sister Senior Fan Ni's body, which didn't possess dragon might, so this ability chose to strengthen other things.
And the essence of the Evil Witch was dreams and fear, or rather—death.
Therefore, the ability of this newborn Pluto's Pupils was life and death at a glance. (Hmm, Lucifer, who was stared to death, has something to say.)
Hmm, death is eternal sleep, the longest dream; death is also fear, the deepest and most desperate fear.
Dorothy's Saint status turned into power to strengthen Senior Sister Senior Fan Ni's authority, making this God's Eye, which Senior Sister might only awaken after truly ascending to the God Throne, born in advance, and even strengthened.
After all, under normal circumstances, if it evolved and awakened based on Senior Sister Senior Fan Ni's essence, her Nightmare Magic Eyes would eventually turn into Pluto's Eyes representing the end and death authority fifty years later, which could stare whoever to death.
But the current Pluto's Pupils could not only make people die but also make people live.
As everyone knows, rebuilding is much harder than destruction. It's easy to kill someone, but very difficult to resurrect someone.
Therefore, the level of this pair of Pluto's Pupils was much higher than the Pluto's Eyes that Senior Sister Senior Fan Ni should have awakened originally.
Of course, Dorothy and Senior Sister Senior Fan Ni didn't know about this, and both were sighing at the power of this pair of eyes.
Although they were both Jade-level magic eyes, this pair of Pluto's Pupils was far less magical than the other two pairs of magic eyes. Sophie Liya's Destiny Magic Eyes could control destiny, and Adi's Truth Magic Eyes could deconstruct all things. Compared with these two magic eyes with full auxiliary capabilities, the ability of Pluto's Pupils to control life and death seemed a bit too simple and rude.
But it was precisely because it was simple that it was pure enough, and because it was pure that it was powerful enough.
Everyone present went dark before their eyes for that moment, which was not any dream or illusion special effect, but simply because they had all truly experienced death once.
Dead people naturally go dark before their eyes.
And their souls couldn't even be protected by the Netherworld mechanism, but fell directly into the Evil God's dream. After all, the Netherworld mechanism was actually just a fake Netherworld temporarily constructed, while the dream of the future Pluto was the real Netherworld.
However, it was better not to tell everyone about such a terrifying thing. Dorothy thought about it and decided to throw out another "sweet date".
"Everyone, this mission is special and the confidentiality is extremely high, so I won't use merit points as a reward, as that would leave traces. But as a substitute, I can let you experience the feeling of authority in person in advance."
She said so.
At the end, she added another sentence.
"Any authority is fine. I know a thing or two about authority."
... So said the word of law... ===== CHAPTER 966 =====
