Given its length, the spear not only has the ability to attack at a longer range than swords and knives, it can also help the user defend by raising the spear’s hilt. The spear is the number one weapon when it comes to stabbing, because it utilizes the thrust of the arm and the point to pierce the center of the plate, even the shield.

At this time, the Heaven and Earth Guild had outlined a plot to assassinate Ung Chinh, but Ung Chinh had in his hands an elite squad of specially trained elites. This elite squad uses a type of ring of the universe as a weapon, dubbed the “flying beheading weapon”. When the bodies of those who opposed Ung Chinh were found, it was found that their heads were removed from their necks while there was no scuffle.
