Chapter 281 Divine Glory
--clang! Thomas swung his sword fiercely, and the blade struck hard on the claws of the deformed undead, causing a string of sparks to dim quickly.
The claws of the undead were deflected by the sword blade, and Thomas' sword finally opened a deep crack in its chest and abdomen, and black pus and blood squirmed out.
This is the final blow to the deformed undead in front of them. After completely reducing the opponent's blood volume to zero, the undead screamed, twisted and was purified. Its weird body suddenly exploded and turned into spiritual strands that dissipated.
This is the second undead spirit I have "purified"... Thomas calculated and wiped the slight sweat from his forehead.
After the battle in front of him was over, Thomas's blood volume was only half left. He withdrew to the rear in time and entered the treatment circle of the auxiliary priests at the rear.
A healing holy light ball floated towards him, turning into soft white light and pouring into his body, making his limbs and bones suddenly light up.
The injuries on his body were healing slowly but visibly, and his blood volume was also recovering at "+1+1+1". Thomas took a short rest while observing the players who were still fighting the undead on the battlefield.
At this time, players had been killed by the aberrant undead, and they were quickly resurrected in an open space near the back of the battlefield, which was the temporarily selected resurrection area.
Thomas learned from the players on the forum who had already jumped seven times that, generally speaking, players would have two resurrection points in their permanent location - one in the safe area around the current location, and one in the On the bed in what was deemed the "player's room".
But players in Red Maple City do not yet have such a thing as a "player room". Currently, the only resurrection points that can be chosen after death are nearby safe areas.
Most of the players who are killed are dying for the first time, so the resurrection time only takes thirty seconds. But as the number of deaths increases, the time it takes to resurrect after death will be significantly longer.
From 30 seconds, to 5 minutes, to 30 minutes, to one hour... the maximum required resurrection time is one day, and the maximum number of deaths allowed is seven times a week. When the number of deaths exceeds seven times in a week, the player will not be able to be resurrected within seven days, and the player will become a "spirit body" and can only chat on channels and browse forums.
Beyond that, death comes with certain penalties. For example, the unused experience value storage is halved, the weapons held are lost, etc. This makes some habitual criminals who continue to resurrect their SL through death in other games greatly lose the space to commit suicide.
…
While observing the situation on the battlefield, Thomas's panel suddenly jumped.
A prompt popped up saying he had obtained a kill reward, and Thomas clicked to receive it.
[Kill the aberrant undead (lv.7) and gain 78 basic experience points]
[The level difference between the deformed undead (lv.7) and you is 6 levels]
[Leap-level kill! Get 60% extra experience points...】
[Reward settlement, actually gained 125 experience points! 】
【……】
Killing a deformed undead will earn you 125 experience points! Thomas looked at the content on the panel with gleaming eyes, and had some vague thoughts.
After killing two aberrant undead, he gained a total of 250 experience points. Thomas originally wanted to put the experience directly into upgrading, which was enough for him to upgrade to two levels in succession.
But soon, he noticed another prompt on the panel - "Level Kill", which has additional experience points as a reward, and may be called "card level"...
Thomas was a little confused, so he opened the forum and found that players had posted posts related to upgrading. He learned that upgrading to a higher level would give you 1 free attribute point.
A little free attribute... Thomas thought, his current basic attribute is basically 5 points, which is equivalent to a 20% increase in a single value! At present, the card level will only give 7 points of extra experience, but it will increase the difficulty of the battle...
Because the reward for killing the aberrant undead alone is not too high, Thomas knows that the main reward in the future will still come from the mission reward of [Death Catastrophe], so he should shorten the attribute gap with the aberrant undead as soon as possible to reduce the number of battles. Difficulty may be the right choice.
After the attributes have been improved to about the same level, let's consider the card level... Thomas thought to himself, and he gave the upgrade instruction without hesitation.
The level jumped from lv.1 to lv.3. Thomas allocated all the 2 free attribute points to "strength". He felt that every muscle in his body was instantly full of vitality, as if there was some kind of fighting spirit. Burning fiercely in his body, he waved his sword and rushed towards the next undead.
However, suddenly.
--boom! Thomas heard a huge roar in his ears and he looked up suddenly.
Right in the middle of Gusta Street, a huge surge of golden light suddenly erupted, rushing against the ominous black clouds covering the sky, like countless golden meteors!
Thomas saw that the dead god heir with the huge baby head seemed to be fleeing upwards again, but two golden figures suddenly shot out in his direction from both sides, and jointly issued a very oppressive attack on him. attack!
And one of the figures is none other than the church’s “master of ceremonies,” Luo Xiu Carlos!
…
--boom! The black flame hurricane summoned by the Death God's heir hit hard on the golden buckler of "Holy Deacon" Hubert.
Fine cracks spread out on the surface of the ring shield, and the hurricane of black flames continued to burn the surrounding air, roaring and sweeping, as if it was going to devour and tear everything it touched.
But Hubert just stood there expressionlessly, and the Heart Lion that was lightly resting on his shoulder slowly reached forward, and one of its armor-covered paws raised the handle upwards. The invisible giant sword.
Then, slash forward!
--boom! A huge golden sword wave suddenly slashed out from the invisible sword. It silently cut through the air as thick as a city wall, and lightly hit the edge of the black flame hurricane.
Whoosh, the hurricane that was still circling and raging stopped. The sand, rocks and building debris swept away lost their support and fell downwards one after another.
"So...hungry..." The Death God was still murmuring like he was dreaming, but he instinctively felt panic.
So, before the huge pillar of pitch-black light was completely shattered, He tried to escape again, and his huge head had already penetrated into the center of the black pillar.
Luo Xiu looked at Hubert. His sacred beast "Heart Lion" had gotten off his shoulders and bent his back in front of him.
Hubert stepped forward, grasped the illusory white mane of the Heart Lion with one hand, turned around and said to Luo Xiu:
"He's running away again. I can use 'Heart Lion's Slash' twice more at most. After that, I can no longer neutralize his attacks."
"Have you seen it clearly? Luo Xiu? Although you have just been promoted to saint, you must join this battle."
After saying that, Hubert rode into the sky on the Heart Lion and chased after the Death God's heir who fled along the dark light.
Luo Xiu also summoned the "Golden Pegasus" Pegasus, rode on its back, and chased after him at a faster speed.
He had been observing the battle between Hubert and the Death God, and he had indeed analyzed something.
For example, the incompleteness of the "Death God's Heir" is not only reflected in his body, but his mind is also incomplete. Currently, he basically relies on instinct to act. Moreover, the "Dead God" has an obvious weakness. He always deliberately avoids exposing his neck to Hubert, and the strange centipede-like body behind him is always coiled around his neck when not in use. , as if protecting it.
He was fleeing high into the sky, so Luo Xiu took out the "Bite of Poison" in his right hand, and in the middle of the pursuit, he drew a crescent-like arc in front of him.
Just above the head of the "Death God's Heir"'s escape path, a hole seemed to be torn open in the air, and a ring of golden light emerged from it, blocking the Death's God Heir.
"-Hungry!!!" The Death God Heir roared in a long and sharp voice. His eyes as big as a human head looked at the dazzling light in front of him. His chaotic consciousness just wanted to break through it and go to the densely populated areas of the city. "Foraging" with great pleasure.
die! Only more death can satisfy his hunger. The more he continues to fight here and against those who block him for unknown reasons, the higher his hunger becomes, and the more he longs for a feast of death.
However, before He even touched the golden ring, he felt the burning heat on his skin.
Several small, but surprisingly fast meteors fell rapidly downward from the ring. They ignited golden flames as they passed through the air, and soon fell on the body of the Death God's heir!
--boom! Boom boom boom boom! The meteor smashed into the huge body of the God of Death, leaving bloody dents. He let out a shrill and tragic wail, and the momentum of the upward impact was blocked.
Hubert rode the Lion of the Heart and caught up with him. The war hammer in his hand had already left an afterimage, and in the next moment, he threw it towards the abdomen of the Death God Heir!
A stream of light flew upward and struck behind the Death God's heir, piercing the air and making a vibrating sound like tearing gold and iron——
boom! The next moment, a crackling sound sounded like a bell, and right at the tail fin of the Death God, Hubert's war hammer slammed a hole through it!
Finally, he could no longer maintain his momentum and fell down from mid-air again.
When He fell to the ground, surging and rich air waves surged around like a tsunami. Houses were overturned and destroyed in circles, and with the body of the Death God's heir as the starting point, the ground sunk into pits one after another in a layered manner.
At the same time that the Death God's heir fell to the ground, Luo Xiu held the Bite of Evil Poison in his right hand and drew a cross downwards.
Two crosses of light ten meters long and wide quickly emerged from the place where Luo Xiu's magic staff had crossed, and quickly magnified.
The two rays of light of the "Brilliant Holy Cross" slowly but unstoppably pressed toward the head of the dead god's heir below.
The God of Death raised his head in confusion. He felt a burst of severe pain all over his body. He wanted to escape in the direction of the dark light pillar again, but he was weak due to the injury and could no longer use the rich spirituality in his body. .
The two crosses of light above His head, which looked like the Sword of Damocles, finally arrived under the somewhat frightened gaze of the Death God. It pressed heavily on the back of the Death God's heir, and then branded it into his flesh.
"-Hiss!!!" The severe pain caused the Death God's heir to tremble all over. The two radiant crosses had penetrated deep into his flesh and bones, and thick, scorching rays appeared on his back. The smell of black smoke.
His movements were once again hindered, unable to move on his own due to the unbearable weight on his back. At the same time, Luo Xiu and Hubert had also descended to the ground.
…
Hubert watched Luo Xiu skillfully use the holy technique just now, and a strong sense of shock emerged in his heart again.
In less than half a month, Rossiu Carlos had mastered two holy arts at the level of a "saint", which once again exceeded Hubert's knowledge.
He still remembered that when he had just been promoted to the "fifth level of destiny" and became a "saint", it took him nearly a month to master the first holy technique that met the level...
He originally thought that Luo Xiu had just been promoted to the "fifth level of destiny" and that his strength could not reach the level of a true "saint", but now Hubert knew that he was completely wrong.
He underestimated Luo Xiu, underestimated him too much. However, this is a good thing in Hubert's view. He is more sure of completely purifying the "Death God's Heir".
His mind was racing with these thoughts, and at the same time, he felt that the surroundings seemed to be enveloped in a glorious palace, and a bright light seemed to be falling above his head.
Under Hubert's gaze, Luo Xiu, who had landed on the ground, had once again raised his magic staff. The outline of his body was covered with a layer of golden light, and he used his third "Five Paths of Destiny" of holy magic.
——The divine glory comes to the world!
As a "divine apostle", this is Luo Xiu's most powerful holy technique after becoming a saint. Hubert felt that the sacred aura was shrouding and protecting him, and the spirituality belonging to the "glow" in his body was also jumping and boiling. His state had reached an unprecedented peak.
And on the "Death God's Heir", the sacred light also enveloped him. But the light was disturbing and burning with fire, constantly burning His body.
"So...hungry..." Hubert heard his shrill wail and felt that his condition was visibly weak.
But even so, He suddenly raised his head and let out a deafening scream in an almost crazy manner!
"————Hiss!!!"
The whistling sound was like a sharp cone, penetrating the eardrums of everyone present, making Hubert's head feel a sharp pain, as if it would burst due to being unable to withstand the pressure the next moment!
At the same time, he felt that the spirituality that had just become active in his body was being suppressed and blocked by some higher-level "divinity". His vision was gradually being occupied by darkness, and his consciousness seemed to be pulled out of his body and suppressed into the windless world. The bottomless valley.
This strange feeling also emerged in Luo Xiu's body at the same time. He inexplicably felt an irresistible force pressing on the top of his head, trying to bury his entire body underground.
However, the more than 300 points of resistance attributes that were selected to avoid spiritual detection before being promoted to "holy" gave Luo Xiu room to move under the heavy pressure of this divine power.
Facing the severe pain in his head, Luo Xiu called out the panel and added all the remaining free attribute points he had accumulated to the "resistance" attribute.
The "resistance" exceeded 400 points, and the spiritual pressure of the Death God's successor suddenly decreased a lot. Luo Xiu then raised his arm with difficulty, and the red mark on the back of his hand flashed with light and dark light.
——Isol Lock of Time!
Visibly to the naked eye, the movements of the dead god heir in front of him gradually froze like ice, and the screams that constantly pierced the eardrums also gradually stopped.
In the space where His huge body is located, time is frozen by the "Lock of Time". The surging spiritual pressure disappeared for a short time, allowing Luo Xiu and Hubert to resume action for a moment.
Almost at the same time, Luo Xiu activated all the holy skills he had accumulated in prayer, and Hubert's Heart Lion raised its invisible sword again.
Just when the time limit of the "Lock of Time" ended, time around the Death God's Heir resumed flowing again.
--boom! ! !
Before he could unleash his spiritual pressure again and suppress Luo Xiu and Hubert's actions, the terrifying spiritual surge surrounding him had already caught up with him.
