[189] Mystic Eye Level - Rainbow
The Mystic Eye Collection Train continued its relentless journey forward.
The remaining Mystic Eyes were subsequently displayed one after another.
They were the "NobleColor" Mystic Eye of Petrification, the "Golden" Mystic Eye of Illusion, and the "Jewel" Mystic Eye of Darkness.
The first Mystic Eye, as the name suggests, could petrify things seen literally.
The second Mystic Eye, in simple terms, was an illusion-type Mystic Eye, but it was much more convenient to use.
The third Mystic Eye, also the highest level Mystic Eye offered this time, was the "Mystic Eye of Darkness" at the jewel level, with the effect, as the name implies, of darkness.
It bestowed darkness upon everything in the field of vision—sight, hearing, taste, touch, and smell.
Everything plunged into darkness. Simply put, it could be described as depriving the five senses, which suited it perfectly.
Complete deprivation.
Moreover, since the Mystic Eye was at the "Jewel" level, most other Mystic Eyes killers were useless against it.
However, that was only for the most part.
All things had the power to be seen.
And Mystic Eyes killer chips could directly block the effects of Mystic Eyes in this aspect.
Like Kazuya, who had two Mystic Eyes killers.
One was glasses, the orthodox choice, used to counter the effects of Mystic Eyes.
The other was a lighter, which could effectively reduce the power of being seen.
So, as long as you paired the right Mystic Eyes killer to counter, even a jewel-level Mystic Eye could be resisted.
However, not everyone would carry such high-level Mystic Eyes killers with them, and even if they did, the effects could be quite potent when unexpected.
So...
"What should I buy next?"
Three days had passed.
The atmosphere inside the carriage had always been tense, but there had been no real fights.
Tonight was the final deadline.
The next station would introduce new magus.
They would come here to participate in this auction together.
It was also auction time.
There were a total of five...
Kazuya pushed open the door and walked towards their work area.
"Is there something, Mr. Kurokawa?" the host of the Mystic Eyes collection train asked.
"It's about to start, right... the auction," Kazuya did not directly answer but continued to ask.
"Yes, it's scheduled to start in about an hour. If you win an eye in the auction, we can proceed with the transplantation immediately."
"All right... that's not a problem. But I'm more curious about something else... Can a person have two different Mystic Eyes at the same time? After all, you see, there are two eye sockets."
"..." Leandra remained silent for a few seconds and then said, "In the past, indeed, there were people who did what you mentioned. After all, the Mystic Eyes has an independent magic circuits inside, so if one has the determination to abandon one eye, there is room for improvement. In the past, someone did this and naturally succeeded, but... the corresponding level of the Mystic Eyes will decrease. The strengths and weaknesses of having two eyes with different effects and one eye with an effect can easily be compared."
"I see... So, it's feasible. Then... one eye is a Golden-level Mystic Eyes, and the other is a Jewel-level?"
Leandra's expression remained unchanged, perhaps because the glasses were wrapped with a belt, or perhaps, like all the staff encountered so far, she was more like a doll than a person. Her expression had never changed.
There was one thing she didn't mention.
That is... she was indeed the type that Kazuya mentioned. However, both of her eyes were Jewel-level Mystic Eyes.
One was used as a Mystic Eye for searching other Mystic Eyes, or you could say... an artificial Mystic Eye.
Even if it was a Rainbow-level Mystic Eye, she could still judge it with her own eyes.
The other one was a natural Mystic Eyes, the "Mystic Eyes of Confinement."
Find the Mystic Eyes, then bring it back...
That was her ability.
"Feasible. Since the guest is so confident, why not try our other hidden service..."
"Oh? What is it?" Kazuya squinted slightly.
"As mentioned before, Mystic Eyes have room for improvement, especially with our technology at the Mystic Eyes collection train. By abandoning one eye with determination, one can make a single eye perform at 1.5 times the effectiveness."
Kazuya understood. If the effectiveness of a singleMystic Eye was 1, and the effect of a pair of Mystic Eyes was 2, then by this calculation, as long as one destroyed the other eye, with a certain special technique, even a single Mystic Eye could perform at 1.5 times the effectiveness.
"Very well!" Kazuya nodded in satisfaction. "I understand... Then, before leaving, let me ask one last thing... Do you have the 'Rainbow' Mystic Eye here?"
"No comment." Leandra directly replied.
However—the eyes of Kazuya had already reached it.
Through his own substitute, he had seen her soul, and when he asked about it, her soul had said "YES!"
In this Mystic Eye collection train, there truly existed the highest level that most, even some Lords of the Clock Tower, considered non-existent—the 'Rainbow' Mystic Eye!
Here... it truly existed!
If one wanted to talk about something that could rival the combat power of heroic spirits in the real world... then, without a doubt, the 'Rainbow' Mystic Eye was among them.
Just by possessing this Mystic Eye, claiming to have combat power comparable to heroic spirits... no, no, it should be said that even surpassing heroic spirits wouldn't be an exaggeration!
It seemed like he had to...
"Don't be like this, okay? Let me guess. How many pairs of Rainbow-level Mystic Eyes do you have here? One pair? Two pairs? Three pairs? Are there any damaged ones? For example... one pair is intact, and the other is broken... really, can't you show some expression? This way, I can't see anything."
Kazuya pretended to sigh, but the information had already been received. When he said "two pairs," "any damaged ones?" and "one pair is intact, and the other is broken"...
Her soul said "YES!"
"No comment."
Still, the answer had been obtained.
"Well... if there's a chance in the future to auction this level of Mystic Eye, remember to send me an invitation... I will definitely offer a price that satisfies you."
"I understand."
Kazuya was slightly surprised, originally intending to leave, he turned back, "You... don't really have the intention to auction Rainbow-level Mystic Eyes, do you?"
"YESYESYESYESYES!"
"No comment." Still, there was no change in her expression.
