Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

The three of them were confident of winning…

Over the past few days, they've killed several Silver Tier and Gold Tier Manipulators who were thinking of gaining fame by killing at least one of them.

However, they have already killed a couple of Platinum Tier Manipulators and didn't leave any evidence… The bodies of these Manipulators have been destroyed by the power of corruption and no traces could be found. Not even their Automatons.

Those two unlucky platinum-tier manipulators were probably just reported as missing people and weren't connected to them…

Anyway, this means that no one knows about the real power of their Corruption ability…

This is the reason why they were confident about dealing with the woman charging at them. She was so hasty and didn't even conceal her presence. She may have concealed her Mana, but her movements were still too obvious for them.

"She's coming… Do not attack her face!" The tallest one among them shouted.

He has a pockmarked face and yellow teeth… He seems to have not taken a bath for several months but the two people beside him didn't mind at all. They were all dirty and reeks of the stench of blood.

They immediately congealed the power of corruption in their hands as they waited for an opportunity to strike…

As soon as the woman reached the 80-meter mark, the three men released their Mana Sense to the limit as they want to target her Automatons.

At this range, she should be releasing her Automatons and preparing for battle…

However, to their surprise, no Automatons came out… or at the very least, they can't sense the Automatons she has…

"Tsk… It must be those Assassination-Type Automatons."

"Don't worry… Just protect me and I'll disable this woman. Those hiding Automatons would be useless if she's knocked out."

The two others agreed to this arrangement.

Soon, one of them pulled out a necklace… It made the pulsating corruption energy in his hands become even more deadly…

"Hey! You're not going to kill her, are you?"

"Shut up! I'm concentrating… I know what I'm doing…" The man replied as he released the power of corruption. It targeted the woman's body…

The other two finally realized what he was trying to do after sensing the corruption that was released. It was actually the corruption that targeted the person's mind and not the physical realm.

The two heaved a sigh of relief after noticing this but they still remained vigilant as her automatons might appear out of nowhere when they're relaxed.

"What?!"

Soon, the man who attacked the woman just now exclaimed in surprise.

The attack he released couldn't be defended by normal means. They need a strong Mind Repulsion Art to extricate the Mind Corruption that his necklace released.

He didn't expect that the woman would just release a blood-red stone and cancel his attack so easily!

Release! Release! Release!

Three more Mind Corruption attacks were released. He no longer cared if she turned into an idiot because of this…

"Hmph! Take that!"

He poured almost all his energy to ensure that his attack was stronger than the last.

'I don't care if you become a vegetable because of this… I can still enjoy you…' The man thought as he kneeled to the ground. Because he releases a huge amount of energy at once, he felt a little dizzy and needed the protection of the other two.

He was smiling as he looked at the woman who appear so confident… He wanted to erase that smug face of hers!

He believes that there was no way for this woman to stop his attack… He had never seen anyone capable of stopping this level of Mind Corruption… Even Diamond Tier Manipulators who had trained their minds for more than four decades would have a hard time dealing with this technique if they don't have an item that could protect their minds.

However, are there magic tools that can provide Resistance against Mind Attacks?

Yes… There may be few of them but they certainly exist.

But Star Garden Peak was proud of its Mind Cultivation and wouldn't think of using Magic Tools with a similar purpose.

They were too confident in their Mind Cultivation so he knows that this woman wouldn't have any magic tools with Mind Attack Resistance.

Because of this, the Mind Corruption he released would directly hit their target and wouldn't get diverted to the Magic Tools. It will be very effective…

Unfortunately, the one they encountered right now is Luna who has obtained the Bloodstone Armament that was a treasure for the Demihumans…

It has one amazing item skill that is extremely helpful against Corruption Attacks. It doesn't matter what form of corruption it was!

[ Absorb Corruption: By spending 100 units of the user's life energy, the Bloodstone Armament can absorb up to 3,500 units of corruption in the surroundings. ]

Vincent doesn't know how many units of corruption were released by Joran's companion but he can tell that it wasn't much…

After all, the Bloodstone Armament barely lit up after the person released his series of attacks.

Soon, the other two notice the problem and no longer bothered to divide their attention.

"Stagnation!"

"Focused Corruption!"

These two attacks came from the other two… They were similar to the attacks that the Bloodstone Armament can also do.

The only difference is the scale of power behind these attacks.

Luna smiled seeing this as he continued using the Armament's third skill.

Whom~

The bloodstone armament was like a vacuum draining all the corruption in the surroundings. They have never seen anything close to this.

"H-how…"

How can she be unaffected by Corruption… Even the Celestials would frown at it and would have to utilize their Celestial Energy to counter it.

Even if she has magic items with the Mind Attack Resistance or Abnormal Status Resistance that could weaken the power of Corruption, she should still be affected to a certain point!

The three of them continued releasing the power of their Corruption until their facial orifices started bleeding…

"Fast Decay!"

"Stagnation!"

They were obviously overexerting themselves but they didn't care…

They believe that the woman in front of them has a limit.

If they continued releasing the deadly power of corruption, they believe that it will soon affect her body…

"Die… Die…"

They were no longer thinking of capturing her.

Unfortunately, from the beginning to the end, she had never shown any emotion… She remained expressionless as she watched their futile struggle.

As soon as she reached the three of them, they saw her pull out her shining blade and the next thing they saw was darkness.
