129 Rat Talisman
"Zane, did you seem to enjoy yourself just now?" Lorna said through gritted teeth, her tone inexplicably sinister.
Bastis, crouching on Zane's shoulder, curled up into a ball, not daring to look at Lorna, who had turned into a terrifying figure.
"Haha, no way!" Zane awkwardly chuckled and decisively took Lorna's hand, leading her towards the position of the Statue of Liberty.
This wasn't the time to reason with a woman; diverting her attention was the most correct choice.
"Hmph!"
"Lorna, how about I show you a magic trick?" Zane mischievously winked at Lorna.
"What magic trick?" Lorna asked curiously.
She wasn't childish enough to be angry over the trivial matter just now; she was simply expressing her presence with a moderate amount of coquetry and jealousy.
"Lorna, do you believe I can bring this statue to life?" Zane pointed to the most prominent Statue of Liberty on Liberty Island.
"I believe!" Lorna nodded earnestly, but there was a hint of imperceptible amusement in her eyes.
Zane: "Uh..."
"Lorna, you're making readers bored with your naivety, you know?"
"Oh, I see, then I won't believe it." Lorna pretended to suddenly understand and said.
"...When did my wife become so mischievous!" Zane felt exhausted...
Bastis, on Zane's shoulder, had somehow reappeared, looking at the lovey-dovey couple in public with disdain.
How old are you guys, and you're still so childish; how many times have you done this, and you're still not tired, but I am!
Blame it on Lorna, this malicious woman, it's because of her that the master has become like this, back then the master was so domineering...
But Little Bone remained silent, following Zane silently, but subconsciously turning her head to the side.
"Alright, enough fooling around, it's time to get to business."
As they chatted, Zane and his group had already arrived at the foot of the Statue of Liberty.
Zane released a bit of his aura.
The tourists near the Statue of Liberty suddenly felt a chill, as if a giant stone was pressing down on their hearts, only gradually easing as they moved away from the statue.
After dispersing the surrounding crowd, Zane embraced Lorna and teleported to the shoulder of the Statue of Liberty.
Little Bone also turned into a blue beam of light and followed closely behind Zane.
The next moment, Zane crouched down and placed his hand directly on the copper skin of the Statue of Liberty, activating the B-level skill [Rat Talisman].
Green patterns began to spread gradually from Zane's palm to the entire body of the Statue of Liberty.
When the entire body of the Statue of Liberty emitted a faint green light, all the radiance suddenly converged.
The next moment, the Statue of Liberty began to tremble slightly, and the rust and dust on her body were shaken off.
The copper eyes suddenly flashed with a glimmer of wisdom, and the copper torch held high in her right hand turned into real flames.
Although she was still made of inorganic material, she exuded the unique vitality of a living being, even her copper clothes began to flutter in the wind.
"Long live liberty!"
"Long live liberty, and equality for all!"
Just after being activated, the Statue of Liberty eagerly recited the Declaration of Independence engraved on her left hand.
The huge voice shook the nearby seawater, creating ripples.
All the tourists on Liberty Island were stunned, even forgetting to take pictures.
They just stared dumbfoundedly at the impassioned recitation of the Declaration of Independence by the Statue of Liberty.
She's alive! The Statue of Liberty is actually alive!
After a moment of shock, everyone boiled over, unable to believe what they were seeing.
Some patriotic people even began to shout loudly:
"God bless America!"
"God bless America!"
...
Gradually, everyone was chanting this phrase, to them, this was a miracle.
Wasn't this a sign of America's prosperity?
But they didn't realize that the Statue of Liberty now was no longer America's.
She ceased to be from the moment Zane set foot on Liberty Island.
And now, this living Statue of Liberty wasn't here to bless America but to dismantle it!
And Zane and his group, standing on the shoulder of the Statue of Liberty, were in trouble.
While Zane and the others were fine, Lorna, despite her body having been transformed to nearly Captain America's level through the long-term baptism of faith, was still in pain from the overwhelming sound.
Seeing Lorna covering her ears in agony and kicking the face of the Statue of Liberty, Zane said:
"Alright, stop yelling!"
Only then did the Statue of Liberty stop her rather adolescent declaration.
"Sorry, master," the Statue of Liberty said meekly.
Although her voice was still loud, she had deliberately lowered it to make it more acceptable.
Seeing the lifelike appearance of the Statue of Liberty, Zane couldn't help but marvel at the [Rat Talisman].
Although it was a B-level skill, it was probably at the top among B-level skills; its effect was almost comparable to an A-level skill.
The effect of [Rat Talisman] was to animate objects, in other words, to create life!
Although Zane was already a demigod, he still couldn't create life like this.
It probably would require him to ignite the divine fire and become the God of Death completely before it became possible.
As he thought, Zane's gaze swept to Little Bone beside him, and suddenly he had an interesting idea.
"Little Bone, can your Hellfire enchant objects and increase their power?" Zane asked.
"Yes, master," Little Bone obediently nodded.
"Good, try to enchant this thing." Zane pointed excitedly at the Statue of Liberty.
"This... master, she's too large, I'm not sure if I can completely cover her with my Hellfire," Little Bone said hesitantly.
"And, I'm not sure what kind of existence she is now."
