Chapter 72: Lugh’s Use Of Runes Is Too Poor
Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
This was the difference between Lugh and the others.
Most people, when faced with a problem, tended to take one step at a time.
But Lugh was different.
He could deduce countless possibilities in his mind so that he could calmly deal with different situations. So, from beginning to end, Lugh had a calm appearance.
Because Lugh had already expected most of the possible situations would appear, he had a way to deal with them.
The original Lugh definitely wouldn’t have been able to do it, but with the runes, both his body and brain were completely transformed and strengthened.
The speed of his thoughts was far faster than ordinary people.
Especially after condensing the comprehension runes a few days ago, he maintained the state of comprehension at all times.
Usually, as soon as a thought appeared in Lugh’s mind, he would immediately have the answer.
Right now, there were only two ways to kill Anthony. One was to continue using the illusion rune to deplete Anthony’s spiritual power.
However, this was not the best way. There was a huge risk because using the illusion rune also required a large amount of spiritual power.
Lugh was only a 2-star rune now. If not for the fact that his spiritual power had skyrocketed after comprehending the fate rune, it would have been used up long ago.
Therefore, the two of them were really not sure who would use up all of their spiritual power first.
The other way was to continue activating the time rune. To stop Anthony from using it for a minute.
During this time, Anthony’s rune could not be used.
Lugh had already used it once, but it was destroyed by Anthony before it had any effect.

However, Anthony had also used up a lot of spiritual power.
He could still use the time rune, but Anthony might not be able to resist it after a few more tries.
In other words, Lugh had nearly one minute to kill Anthony. Logically speaking, he was already confident, but what if Anthony used other even stranger runes at the same time he broke the time ban rune, it would be very likely to break the illusion that he had set up.
His chances of winning against Anthony were not high. After all, his holy shield rune was extremely sturdy.
Lugh could not even break Anthony’s defense.
After witnessing Anthony’s unimaginable ability to use runes, Lugh knew that he was still far from being able to use runes. Since he did not understand, he had to be even more careful.
There was no shame in being cautious. Although Lugh had so many powerful abilities, he had always been very calm and had not acted arrogantly.
From the time he had assassinated Berg, it could be seen that he was a very cautious person.
He had made plans to assassinate Berg far in advance, and in the end, he had perfectly assassinated Berg. He had even predicted that there would be people probing later on.
In this aspect, Anthony could not compare to Lugh. In terms of assassination, Lugh could kill Anthony hundreds or thousands of times.
At this moment, Anthony’s destruction rune had covered half of the sky. It looked extremely huge.
Even Camia and the others could see it clearly from afar.
Not to mention Elizabeth, who was not far from Lugh.
Elizabeth was not in the illusion, so she could not see what was in the illusion.
She could only see Anthony facing the air, as if he had gone crazy, displaying all kinds of his runes, and then talking to himself.

After hearing Anthony’s words, Elizabeth understood that he must have fallen into the illusion.
Lugh was still holding his hands and watching leisurely.
Elizabeth’s eyes flickered and she felt depressed.
She had wanted to prove her strength, but she realized that she couldn’t interfere at all.
Anthony’s subordinates had all been killed by Lugh in an instant. She didn’t even have the chance to make a move.
And now, Anthony was trapped in an illusion.
Looking at him from outside the illusion, he had an indifferent expression.
Elizabeth knew that he still had many tricks that would be useless.
This Anthony was going to die very soon.
For a moment, Elizabeth felt conflicting emotions towards Lugh.
On one hand, she felt ashamed of her inferiority, on the other hand, she was surprised, and then, on the other hand, she felt strange. Lugh’s strength was stronger than hers. There was no doubt about this.
However, she really did not know how to ridicule Lugh’s crude use of runes.
This made Elizabeth a little happy. There were still some parts of this man that were inferior to her.
His runes were powerful, but his attack methods were very simple. Camia could tell at a glance that this was definitely from the heavenly battlefield, and it was a battle method from at least a few decades ago.
He pursued the power of runes, not the use of runes.
The use of runes was constantly changing.
Researching single runes, rune phrases, overlapping runes, and the fusion of runes, they were all trying to develop the strongest rune ability out of the limited number of runes.
After all, the people in the rune world weren’t as abnormal as Lugh.
It was extremely difficult for them to condense every single rune. Moreover, the runes that could be condensed into whatever ability or level were completely uncontrollable.
This was why the importance of using runes was highlighted.
If ordinary runes were used properly, they could still display their powerful abilities.
But Lugh was different. He could only use the abilities of the runes themselves.
It seemed very simple and violent. But only a discerning person would be able to see it.
Lugh’s battle was really very crude.
