Chapter 283 [Lament of Death (Golden Legend)]
In Luo Xiu's field of vision, the body of the Death God's heir was rapidly crumbling, turning into ashes and dissipating visibly to the naked eye, and his remaining materials were gradually peeled off from his body.
Those were about seven "Death Spirit Crystals".
Because the Deathborn God's Heir was an incomplete birth, it did not form a complete crystal core that belonged to the true "Godbirth" level. However, the seven Deathbirth Spirit Crystals were of epic quality at the very least, and two of them were already It has reached the level of "legendary" material.
Although according to the rules of the Holy Court, such high-level materials cannot be owned by the priest alone, and Hubert will later ask Luo Xiu to recover them, but this does not prevent Luo Xiu from stealing some first.
After the body of the Death God's heir completely collapsed and turned into ashes and dissipated, Luo Xiu walked to the place where he fell, leaned down and picked up all the "Death Spirit Crystals" on the ground.
There were a total of two "Death Crystal Blocks" and five "Death Residual Crystals". Luo Xiu put them into his bracelets and planned to swallow one of them each and store them in the Forsaken Royal Court.
Afterwards, Luo Xiu walked towards the location where the Death God's heir emerged from the surface.
What appeared in front of Luo Xiu was a huge pothole that could swallow up an entire small manor.
At the bottom of the pit, there was once a stronghold where the "Bishop of the Dead" Pasaro was hiding. Luo Xiu still had some places he wanted to explore there.
Because during the entire process of purifying the "Heir of the Dead God", the "Bishop of the Dead" Pasaro did not actually appear. Regardless of whether he was dead or alive at this time, according to Luo Xiu's guess, he should still be where he was before. in the stronghold.
And Passaro's "legacy" must also remain there, and after the threat from Koros is resolved, Hubert will definitely come back to "recycle" them. Before that, Luo Xiu also planned to raid the stronghold first.
After all, Passaro is the "bishop", so he must have a lot of good things in his hands.
With this thought in his mind, a bright golden light appeared in Luo Xiu's palm. He applied several sacred skills to protect himself, and then jumped into the deep cave in front of him.
…
dark.
There is no light at the bottom of the huge cave. The air here is extremely humid and stagnant, and the rotten smell of death seems to permeate every corner.
Wow! A shaking sound was heard, Luo Xiu turned his spirit into his palms, and his glorious spirit had been transformed into a swaying open flame.
With minimal lighting around him, Luo Xiu could see clearly that the location he was in was an entire underground cave sunken inward.
The corpses of more than a dozen pagans were curled up and embedded in the surrounding rock walls. Their corpses were all shriveled, as if the last trace of moisture had been sucked out of their bodies. Their wrinkled faces looked terrifying and weird.
And in the very center of this underground cave, a withered body dressed in torn robes lay lying there. His condition was better than that of the pagan corpses around him, but he had also lost his life.
That is the "Bishop of the Undead" Pasaro Adoa. He is indeed dead...
The panel detection of the corpse in front of him confirmed this, so Luo Xiu quickly walked to Passaro.
In Luo Xiu's eyes, he saw that the expression of fear, unwillingness, and despair still remained on Passaro's face. His eyes protruded outward to an exaggerated degree, and he was holding a pitch-black staff tightly in his hand.
When he saw the staff, Luo Xiu suddenly felt a strong sense of familiarity.
——That was the necromancy staff that the old man who was suspected to be the bishop of the "Ancient Hermitage" bought when he was participating in the antiquities auction at the "Black Sword Mansion"!
In other words, the "Bishop of the Undead" Passaro Adoa was indeed the old man who participated in the antiquities auction at that time. At that time, he also exchanged a "Fragment of King Isol's Crown" from him... Luo Xiu thought sadly.
At that time, Luo Xiu did think that this old man of unknown origin might become his enemy, but now, "Bishop of the Undead" Passaro can never threaten him again.
Luo Xiu's eyes fell on the necromancy staff held tightly in his hand.
This staff is a little different from the one I saw at the "Antiquities Auction".
Passaro seemed to have made some renovations to it, and also embedded some ancient and mysterious engravings on it, which made Luo Xiu feel a sense of danger.
When they first saw it, Luo Xiu judged that the quality of this necromantic staff should be "epic". But now, it’s possible to reach “legendary”!
Luo Xiu then leaned down, opened Passaro's fingers one by one, and took out the necromantic staff from his tightly clenched hand.
When the staff actually fell into Luo Xiu's hands, Luo Xiu's panel showed its weapon interface.

【……】
Sure enough, it has become a staff of "legendary" quality... Looking at the content on the panel, Luo Xiu looked thoughtful.
"Lament of Death", this is a very standard staff for the [Lost] Conjurer.
Although Luo Xiu is not a [Lost] transcendent, this staff also has a certain strength in his hand.
Moreover, the more crucial point is that——
As the master of the "Holy Abyss" and as a "Shura", Luo Xiu really lacks a weapon suitable for this level of identity!
All of his current powerful weapons are under the identity of the church leader "Roseux Carlos".
Although he hasn't been acting as "Shura" much recently, he still needs to make some preparations for this.
As for the "Lament of Death", a weapon that is not used by Luo Xiu in his superficial identity and is also banned by the Holy Court, it is very suitable to be used under the identity of "Shura".
Although it is not a professional martial arts, it is enough to support the appearance.
Luo Xiu was thinking about this, and he was also thinking about another thing - so far, he most often turned to the dwarf Mill to forge equipment and weapons.
Although I have purchased various puppets from Mir before, with my current status, I obviously can no longer buy or customize too many taboo things from Mir without any precautions.
Like when he handed over the Horn of Epiros to Mir, Mir had expressed his resistance to things that were too taboo.
"Holy Abyss" will continue to grow in the future. Based on this, Luo Xiu cannot leave too many related customization tasks to him.
In the final analysis, it can be summed up in one point - Luo Xiu needs to find a new blacksmith. Looking for a blacksmith who can serve the "Holy Abyss" exclusively and who does not resist taboos.
In this regard, Luo Xiu already had a candidate in mind.
——That is Balin, the ghost craftsman of [Ku Tu] who is hiding in his birthplace "Morning Town"! Together with a certain secret organization behind him, Luo Xiu was ready to take them away together.
As soon as he thought about it, Luo Xiu stopped staying any longer.
He checked the stronghold one last time and found a box on a small round table in the depths. Inside was a ring inlaid with a profound magic crystal.
There seems to be some forbidden power and technical knowledge about [Lost] sealed inside - but this thing is of no use to Luo Xiu. He is going to hand it over to Hubert directly. After all, he can't just raid the stronghold. , but told the outside world that no loot was found.
Apart from "Death's Lament" and this ring, there is nothing else of value in this stronghold.
Luo Xiu then activated the seal of the "Forgotten Royal Court", went to the huge palace and stored the "Death Spirit Crystal" and "Death Lament" here, and then teleported back to the real world, taking the profound ring with him. Left the stronghold.
…
--puff! !
Thomas penetrated the body of the deformed undead in front of him with a sword, and completed the last purification of the undead before the last ten points of blood were exhausted.
So far, he has purified a total of six undead souls in this crisis at the cost of one death and resurrection.
——Six undead! Apart from the kill rewards that Purifying the Undead itself can give, he has been able to obtain up to 5,000 experience points in the settlement of the limited-time mission [Death's Catastrophe]!
At that time, you can raise your level to the current upper limit in one fell swoop!
Maybe there's still a little bit left... After reaching the level limit, how do you get promoted? The priest who just spoke to me told me that I need to get a bronze "key" and master a skill called "radiant engraving"... Thomas thought with some excitement, and he was full of expectations for these in his heart. .
While he was purifying the last undead, the group of aberrant undead that was beating another player not far away from him suddenly dispersed. Their bodies suddenly trembled, and then fell softly.
Thomas saw that billowing black smoke was rising from the bodies of the undead, and their blood volume was also decreasing rapidly, reaching zero in an instant before Thomas could react.
——I damn forgot to do the last hit! Thomas reacted suddenly.
He thought with some regret, and then found that almost all the undead souls in the scene were limp, smoking, and melting as quickly as ice cubes under the sunlight.
And the dark liquid that was flowing everywhere began to smoke in bursts like these undead. The black color quickly faded away, and the flowing liquid gradually turned into real water, gurgling into the ditch beside the street.
Is this... the end? Thomas held the sword and thought in a daze.
Suddenly, as if he had some enlightenment, Thomas looked at the sky beside him, looking at the location of the huge black light pillar.
The beam of light has been completely shattered, the heart-stopping ominous aura has almost disappeared, and the "Death God's Heir" has been completely purified...
This made Thomas, who had just experienced a fierce battle, feel a little dazed. His panel suddenly popped up a reminder that the task was completed, but Thomas did not open it immediately.
He recalled the scene he had seen before - the Death God's heir with a huge baby head suddenly flew into the sky, and two figures emitting dazzling golden light shot out in his direction from the side, and one of them was... The church’s “master of ceremonies”, Rossiu Carlos…
Then, a crack suddenly opened in the sky above the head of the God of Death, and countless bright golden meteors fell from it. They fell heavily on the body of the God of Death, and the dazzling golden light fell on him in bursts. The top of his head opened and shattered, accompanied by the shrill scream of the Death God, and he fell back to the ground with him...
Thomas clearly saw that it was the holy magic summoned by "Master of Ceremony" Luo Xiu Carlos!
That powerful and divine beauty made Thomas shudder and move, and his heart couldn't help but reveal deep yearning.
"It would be great if I could be as strong as him..."
"I heard that the great sacrificer is only in the fourth level of life... Well, with the player buff bonus, as long as you keep playing and sacrifice more livers than other players, you will definitely reach his level soon... …”
"..."
Thomas murmured. He raised his head and saw Connor, the captain of their "Holy Patrol Team". He also raised his head and stared blankly in the direction of the broken black light beam.
There was a dazed and disbelieving look in his eyes, which made Thomas feel a little confused.
Captain Connor... He seemed to be surprised by the powerful performance of "Host of the Festival" Luo Xiu Carlos? This is wrong...haven't their native priests seen their boss take action?
Thomas thought to himself, curiosity drove him to walk next to Connor and asked him:
"What are you looking at, Captain?"
"..."
"Promoted..." Connor muttered somewhat absentmindedly.
Got promoted? Thomas was a little confused, but he heard Connor continue to murmur as if talking to himself:
"Luo Xiu...he has been promoted again..."
"He has reached the fifth level of destiny... ugh... the fifth level of destiny..."
"..."
Inexplicably, Thomas seemed to hear a cry in Connor's voice.
But he didn't notice this, but his eyes widened in shock at the words he just heard——
Fivefold destiny! Captain Connor actually said that Luo Xiu Carlos has already reached the fifth level of destiny!
And according to the information he had collected before, it is clear that the people in charge of the other two locations in Red Maple City - "Bianting" and "Fangbeiyuan" have the fourth level of destiny!
The leader of the church, Rossio Carlos, has already reached the fifth level of destiny!
This couldn't help but shock Thomas, because this new piece of news completely overturned his understanding of the distribution of combat power levels in Red Maple City.
And the other golden figure who appeared together with the high priest of the church and attacked the Death God's heir seemed to be at the same level as Luo Xiu Carlos.
In other words - when the strongest people in Bianting and Fangbeiyuan were only "fourth-level destiny", the church already had two super figures with "fifth-level destiny"? !
Now I have to join the church! .jpg
After Thomas learned this, the expression on his face became more and more excited.
