Chapter 476 Fire Thief! (4000 words long chapter)
"Uh-huh--"
Wu Xiaode roared in pain and punched the ground.
The ground then cracked.
However, this venting has no effect at all.
Fluctuations of calamity power appeared from his body, wandering freely in the void.
Although not targeting any target——
This escaping force directly cut the surrounding area into fragmented and free fragments.
"Healing."
Olivia shouted.
She waved her hand and released streaks of ghost power, hoping to use it to heal Wu Xiaode's wounds.
But the brilliance of the magic technique can't even get close to Wu Xiaode.
The power of the robbery was so brutal that any spell that came close to him was cut into nothingness.
Wu Xiaode spit out a mouthful of blood, knelt on the ground, and shouted in pain:
"Olivia, retreat quickly, don't be affected!"
Ghost Queen Olivia tried harder, but found a catastrophic aftermath emerging from the void, gently cutting her arm.
The arm was silently cut into two pieces.
An unprecedented fear suddenly gripped Olivia's heart.
——This is a calamity that no living being can resist!
If he continues to stay with Xiao Wu, he will definitely be killed by Jie Li!
"Retreat!"
Wu Xiaode roared again.
Odwaya grabbed her severed hand and retreated violently.
At the same time, densely packed bronze hands emerged from the void and spliced together to form Ulysses.
"This is really difficult to handle."
Ulysses sighed, placed a giant gold brick on his head, and a blazing holy light emitted from his hands.
He chanted a spell loudly and kept emitting the holy light, trying to make the light fall on Wu Xiaode.
At the beginning, there were indeed scattered points of light falling on Wu Xiaode.
The wounds on Wu Xiaode's body began to heal slowly.
Suddenly——
"Ahhhhh!"
Wu Xiaode burst into a scream of extreme pain.
The calamity power turned into invisible air waves and emanated from his body, spreading in all directions.
Odwaya's expression changed drastically, and she flew back again, crashing directly through the castle and fleeing thousands of meters away.
"Oops."
Ulysses, who was not far in front of Wu Xiaode, muttered something.
His entire body and the huge gold brick tied to his head turned into flying metal particles, then into powder, and finally into nothingness.
Wu Xiaode suddenly raised his head, stretched his neck, and opened his eyes wide, as if something was holding his throat.
He started to run out of breath.
In the void, densely packed bronze hands kept appearing.
Thousands of bronze hands surround him, sometimes forming the evil ghost king Lester, sometimes splicing into the succubus goddess Skadi, or turning into a one-eyed giant and a fallen angel.
They appeared again and again, trying every possible means to rush to save Wu Xiaode, but they were swept away by the invisible power escaping from his body and turned into powder one after another.
"No, he's going to die."
The Ghost Queen watched from a distance and couldn't help crying.
In the midst of lightning and flint, Wu Xiaode suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed it in the void.
His bloody hand pressed on the Book of the Dead.
"Release...Commission..."
In a hoarse voice, he breathed out his last breath:
"Save me."
In an instant, the Book of the Dead opened, and lines of small words in ice crystals appeared on the wall:
"You have completed today's commissioned task:"
"The Lost Pages."
"You are therefore qualified for a publishing commission."
"You posted a commission:"
"Save me."
"Entrustment fee: Undetermined."
"The current commission has been passed to the spirit world, waiting for the heroic spirits to accept the commission."
"Note: This is a trial mission. Only the heroic spirits who complete the commission can get your commission money."
"——The commissioned release was successful."
"The first heroic spirit is coming."
"The second heroic spirit arrives."
"The third heroic spirit arrives."
“Come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come”
I wish that clusters of boiling spiritual light would fall down from the wall, like vast light pillars falling from the sky and piercing Wu Xiaode's back.
He suddenly stood up, his injuries all over his body healed quickly, and he looked as if he was not injured.
Densely packed spells were spread all over his body.
This is the heroic spirits taking action together!
All kinds of healing arts burst out from his body, so he won't be crushed to pieces like Ulysses.
The strength level of the heroic spirits is much higher than that of Ulysses.
This time, Wu Xiaode finally escaped from danger temporarily.
He took another breath, took several deep breaths, and then said:
"Thank you for your help."
A calm and vicissitudes of voice sounded from his mouth:
"Fortunately, your wish wall can guide us to come - needless to say, resisting the disaster is the wish of all of us."
He said to himself again:
"Everyone, be careful, this is our unprecedented battle."
The next moment.
Countless voices sounded from Wu Xiaode:
"I know, Human Emperor."
"Who dares to be careless?"
"This is pure power of immeasurable calamity..."
"It's changing!"
"Quick, be careful!"
"The second wave of calamity is erupting!"
"It is changing its form and turning into some kind of calamity skill!"
"Prevent with all your strength!"
"Prepare——"
Wu Xiaode stood there with his head lowered.
The majestic and vast calamity force ejected from his body and turned into a roaring tornado around him.
At the same time, he exuded countless powerful auras.
The heroic spirits are doing their best to suppress the immeasurable catastrophe!
One breath.
Two breaths.
Three breaths.
Suddenly, all the tornadoes merged together.
In an instant, the entire castle was torn apart by this force and turned into nothingness.
Wu Xiaode was floating in the air.
All the calamity power turned into violent winds surrounding him, gradually forming a huge whirlpool.
The Human Emperor’s voice sounded again:
"Everyone, I can't resist anymore."
His tone was full of unwillingness, anger and helplessness.
"Me too."
"Yes, it's too powerful."
"Can't beat it."
"What to do?"
The heroic spirits said in unison.
"Protect him!" the Human Emperor said suddenly.
All the heroes took action at once, turning their own power into various spells to protect Wu Xiaode's body.
Wu Xiaode raised his head and looked at the huge vortex swirling around him.
——This vortex is materializing.
Billions of black branches took shape from the wind, surrounding him in a whirlpool shape, exuding bursts of strange power.
These branches seem to have their own thoughts——
They are like some kind of strange tentacles, spreading all around, releasing a breath of violence and destruction, destroying the world of "Ghost Kingdom" in an instant.
All the tentacles were still circling, but their sharpest ends were all pointed at Wu Xiaode.
Lines of small words in ice crystals quietly appeared before Wu Xiaode’s eyes:
"Congratulations."
"Your 'end' technique is the power formed after the destruction of the world. It is recognized by the destruction itself, so it successfully helps you absorb the power of immeasurable catastrophe."
"The power of the immeasurable calamity has been condensed into a move exclusive to the calamity master:"
"Destruction calls."
"It has taken effect automatically."
"Calling——"
Wu Xiaode's pupils shrank suddenly.
Automatically take effect?
——Why is this?
Suddenly there was a burst of applause in the void.
I saw a figure quietly emerging among the endless black branches.
Shen Xiujun.
While applauding, she looked at Wu Xiaode with admiration.
"Brother Xiao Wu, what you did is so beautiful, even I have to praise you."
Shen Xiujun said.
There was a loud "bang" sound, and a star appeared above her head.
The second star!
Wu Xiaode brushed a second star on her body!
Shen Xiujun felt something in his heart, but he didn't care on his face.
"Is all this within your expectations?" Wu Xiaode asked.
"That's not the case. It turns out that there are really sentient beings who can steal the power of calamity. This is the first time I have seen it."
Shen Xiujun sighed.
She raised her hand.
The billions of black branches surrounding the two people all erupted into a buzzing sound.
"This is a move that embodies the power of immeasurable calamity. It is specially used to call us. Although you have obtained this move, you are like an eagle falling from the nest for the first time, more like an eagle who has just received a torch. Primitive man had no idea how to exploit its great power."
"--Nevertheless, as a mortal, even I admire you for being able to do this."
Shen Xiujun said.
"But nothing escaped your control?" Wu Xiaode asked.
"Of course."
Shen Xiujun slightly shook his white and slender fingers and pointed towards Wu Xiaode from a distance.
Wu Xiaode couldn't move immediately.
Billions of black branches swarmed in, entwined with each other, and quickly formed a huge throne, emerging behind Wu Xiaode.
Shen Xiujun smiled sweetly and said: "Brother Xiao Wu, you are so outstanding that I came up with an idea and made a hypothesis."
"Because it is a hypothesis, no matter what I say, my reputation will not change——"
"Suppose this:"
"Now you possess the move embodied by the immeasurable calamity: the call of destruction."
"At the same time, I have immobilized your body, so that the many heroic spirits in you cannot leave for the time being."
"Suppose - you take the initiative to surrender to me, say my name, and then say something like you like me, our mission is over."
Wu Xiaode answered: "Once I say this, your mission will be over. You can kill me and take everything from me."
A faint blush appeared on Shen Xiujun's face and he continued:
"Remember, 'you take the initiative to surrender to me' is a prerequisite."
"Assuming you fulfill this prerequisite - I will not kill you, nor will I take away your most precious possessions."
"I will kill all the heroic spirits in you, use this as your certificate and merit, and transform you into a robbery demon."
"Assuming you complete the prerequisites, you can be with me forever."
"——You can do whatever you want me to look like."
Shen Xiujun finished speaking in one breath.
"What if I refuse? I guess you still can't kill me. After all, we are on a mission." Wu Xiaode said.
"This is indeed true," Shen Xiujun admitted, "but I will kill all the heroic spirits in you, after all, they can no longer escape."
Wu Xiaode's heart tightened.
"You can't kill me, but you can touch the heroic spirit in me?" he asked.
"Yes, they are them, you are you, they are not part of our mission." Shen Xiujun said.
"Aren't you afraid that I will hate you?" Wu Xiaode asked.
Shen Xiujun explained seriously:
"I'm not afraid at all, because——"
"You will be killed by the robbery power you stole - it's none of my business. It's you who wants to steal it, and you can't bear it at all. As for me - I don't know about it at all, so the mission won't destroyed.”
"Then, when you die, I will kill all the heroic spirits in you."
"Do you understand?"
She flew forward, gently touched Wu Xiaode's face with her hand, and whispered in his ear:
"Brother Xiao Wu, don't bring about your own destruction."
"Say you like me and I will let you be with me forever."
Wu Xiaode was silent.
Yes.
The other party had no intention of killing him.
It was his own stolen power of immeasurable calamity that caused everything.
But why should I believe her?
——Because there is no other way.
If you don't surrender, you will die.
It's better to surrender, say that you like her, and then have a glimmer of hope to survive.
"Stand further away so that you can have a better atmosphere." Wu Xiaode said.
Shen Xiujun looked at the broken skin on his body and the flying flesh and blood, smiled softly, and flew away.
"Brother Xiao Wu, the heroic spirits in you can hardly suppress the calamity power."
"You must confess your feelings to me sincerely. You only have one chance."
She landed steadily dozens of meters away, with a pure and shy expression on her face, and said softly.
Wu Xiaode took a deep breath and asked:
"How to say?"
"Say you like me." Shen Xiujun said.
"Then I said it." Wu Xiaode said.
"Yeah." Shen Xiujun said.
In silence.
Wu Xiaode hesitated for a moment, then finally spoke and said softly:
"You like me."
Shen Xiujun was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook his head and said:
"Give you one last chance. You have to say 'I like you' and add my name after it."
"Can't you just say I like you?" Wu Xiaode asked.
"Of course not. There are many types of likes. You must add a name." Shen Xiujun said.
"If you like me, what should you say?" Wu Xiaode asked again.
"Of course I like you, Wu——"
Shen Xiujun was about to speak when he suddenly reacted.
"Brother Xiao Wu, this is not funny at all. Do you really want to die?" she chuckled.
Wu Xiaode sighed regretfully.
It really doesn't work to play nice.
"Xiujun," he said.
"Huh?" Shen Xiujun responded, with murderous intent already exuding from his body.
"I think the reason why you didn't wipe out all sentient beings in one fell swoop is because you didn't have a good solution to the dead strong men back then."
"Why do you say that? We are invincible." Shen Xiujun sneered.
Wu Xiaode continued talking on his own:
"The strong ones have all turned into heroic spirits and will activate the coming of all spirits into the world in the future. In this process, you did not kill them all, which means -"
"You are strangers to the power of death."
"I don't know if I guessed it right, but since I have stolen that power from you——"
"Just let me take a gamble."
The words fell.
Wu Xiaode thought.
On the Book of the Dead hidden inside his body, the second wall suddenly emitted a bright light.
——All living beings sigh in despair at the wall! ! !
I saw two lines of small words in ice crystals quickly appearing on the wall:
"Do you want to sacrifice your skills?"
"——By the way, you haven't used this wall for a long time."
Wu Xiaode said silently in his heart:
"Sacrifice Skill: Call of Destruction."
"All used to improve the death skill: Silent Mist."
There was a pause.
Sigh A line of small words in ice crystals appeared on the wall:
"Start the sacrifice!" (End of Chapter)
