Chapter 604 Higher Order Spell–Goliath Might
604 Higher Order Spell–Goliath Might
Just one of the Rune Rowan was controlling was thousands of times more complicated than the Runes Andar had ever come across, as it contained parts that Andar could not even comprehend, for most of it did not even exist in the present, but in the past or the future, and Rowan was simultaneously controlling multiple billions of these Runes at the same time!
In a few short months, he had achieved a level of competency that would take someone else forever to achieve, as a Nascent Primordial, the world of mysteries was an open book to Rowan.
It was not that the Scripts inside the Endless Vault of Andar did not reach this level in complexity, but as the owner of the Endless Vault, certain mysteries were laid bare to him and he was able to easily understand them, else no matter how talented Andar was, he would not have been about to manipulate even the least of the Script inside the Endless Vault as an Acolyte.
Rowan did not have that luxury, he had to understand these Runes and manipulate them at a level that was beyond what Andar could understand, yet he knew his foundation of Rune manipulation was sourced from the growing knowledge of Andar and his Knowledge Well was constantly refining his every understanding until his mastery became ungodly, it was a good thing then that he was a Nascent Primordial, knowledge like these became easier to apply.
This was a feat that had exceeded a god or even an Archmage as each of Rowan's Consciousness Pillars was equal to or even better than the Immortal Soul of a god or Archmage, and he had more than a hundred of those.
Rowan had stopped comparing himself to a god or an Archmage a long time ago, and the only thing he was careful about was powers that were ancient, as only those would have the foundations to challenge him, and Rowan knew his main opponents were truly old, with time even trash could be endlessly refined to a Supreme treasure.
Bringing his focus to a razor edge Rowan began bombarding the World Engines with the Arcane Runes, holding all the billions of Runes with his Telekinesis and controlling them to precisely fall where he wanted.
The pain he was feeling began to increase exponentially and a slight frown crossed his face, as the World Engine was linked deeply with him and his actions were similar to refinement. This brought about a level of pain and discomfort that was almost impossible to describe.
If the pain he was feeling was a 10, then what his Ouroboros Serpent was experiencing was a 100. Yet they obeyed his orders and did not cry out in pain even as their bodies began to disintegrate gradually, when the flood of the Runic bombardment was coming to an end, the World Engine that was shining a bright red began to slowly melt.
A glowing platform emerged below that was shaped like a bowl and began to collect the melted portions of the World Engine. It took three weeks for the entirety of the World Engine to be melted and after that was done, Rowan's face was pale as bone, and he had been drastically weakened.
He let out the breath he had held inside his lungs for the last three weeks and it came out as a hurricane that ravaged this space for endless miles, thick fog escaped from his nostrils, and created massive clouds overheads, as a storm clouds stretching for hundreds of miles began to hover over his head.
Rowan nearly fell on one knee and a quick scan of his Attributes made him pause a bit in shock but he pulled through this impediment and continued, he had expected this to happen, after all the World Engine was the Core Ability of his Ouroboros Bloodline.
Strength: 566,899/ 2,170,182
Agility: 457,666/ 2,062,915
Constitution: 987,880/ 2,508,767
His physical abilities were now in the gutter, but he did not truly need it for what was coming, as he had other alternatives, and for the forging ahead, it was the abilities from his other bloodline that had what he truly needed.
Rowan did not have to gesture for Lost before the boy began to chant words to a Higher Order Spell.
That was right, with Lost giving Rowan back the Spirit Attribute, this Omnipotent Aspect could cast Spells, and it was a Higher Order Spell to boot.
This was what only a high-level Mage or an Archmage could cast because of the high cost, but Lost could effortlessly cast this spell that required at least 400,000 points in Spirit because his Spirit Stats ran into the millions.
In front of the boy, a silver pentagram appeared in the air and was inlaid with various ethereal Scripts that rotated inside the pentagram, he lined up the Spell so that it would face the direction of Rowan and he shot it toward his right arm, as he was doing so, he cast the same spell once more, and shot it towards Rowan left arm, his legs, and chest.
The entirety of the Spell cost the Omnipotent Aspect a whooping 2.5 million points of Spirit that was exhausted in less than three seconds and he appeared a bit tired, but in a blink of an eye, he drained the power he had been accumulating from using Convergence and refilled his Spirit to the peak.
The Spell he had just cast five times on Rowan was beginning to show their power as the Pentagram inlaid on Rowan's body began to glow and a flood of electrifying energy filled Rowan's body like ice water being pumped into his veins.
He gasped and checked his Attributes once more and he grinned.
Strength: 4,666,666/ 2,170,182
Agility: 7,666,666/ 2,062,915
Constitution: 9,666,666/ 2,508,767
This Spell had not only dispersed his weakened condition, it has also doubled his strength and Agility, while more than quadrupling his constitution.
This Higher Order Spell was called Goliath Might, this was one of the Spells that Eva had taught to Lost and was one she could hardly cast more than four times, but Lost was able to continuously cast this Spell for as long as he wanted while refilling his Spirit with Convergence.
Rowan opened his right palm and Envy returned to it, he took the Axe Head of the weapon and began to press it.
Envy shivered in discomfort, but did not move and in a short while, the Axe Head had been transformed into that of a Great Hammer.
Rowan smiled and channeled the Lost Flames around the Hammer Head and began bringing out the other materials he needed for this process.
The first thing he brought out was the Gears of Madness.
