Chapter 325 [Ans El’s Crystal of Faith]
The crisp sound of the dagger echoed above the altar.
Li Si felt a shock in his hand, as if the dagger had hit steel. The force from the shock made Li Si's right hand numb.
Looking at the magical light in the hands of the other three petitioners, Li Si had no choice but to retreat temporarily.
More than ten meters back, Li Si stared closely at the four petitioners. The move [Slit Throat] just now had no effect. The petitioner attacked by Li Si did not. Any appearance of being affected.
The sharp dagger flashed deftly in Li Si's hand, but Li Si's face remained calm, not disappointed at all because of his miss just now.
This was his first time fighting against the petitioners, so it was normal to have any surprises.
In his previous life, Li Si also explored the ruined Kingdom of God, but this was the first time he encountered a petitioner.
Just now he wanted to attack directly and break them apart, but he didn't expect the petitioner's body to be so strong.
The collision of the daggers felt like meeting a gold-level warrior. Even Li Si's attacks could not break through the defense.
Also, petitioners, as one of the defensive forces of the Kingdom of Gods, cannot be simple.
Silver level strength is meaningless in front of an opponent who can invade the Kingdom of God.
Even if there are too many ants to bite the elephant to death, for god-level strength, it must at least have gold-level strength.
Perhaps, the strength of these petitioners has been greatly reduced due to the fall of the gods and the fragmentation of the kingdom of God.
But the strength may be reduced, but the previously strengthened physical strength has not been weakened.
Although this was Li Si's first time fighting against the petitioners, Li Si still knew some basic information.
That is, the body of the petitioner is not their original body.
Petitioners are bodies formed by the souls of dead believers who are led into the Kingdom of God and formed under the influence of the power of the Kingdom of God.
So, except for a few cases, the ability of the petitioners of the Kingdom of God has little to do with their lifetime, and more depends on the will of the gods.
So, compared to the flesh-and-blood lives in their lifetime, the petitioners in front of them are more like energy beings like elemental elves.
Li Si, who kept retreating and preparing to deal with a new wave of attacks, suddenly found that the petitioners had returned to praying.
In this way, just like those mechanical monsters in the previous life, as long as Li Si is out of the attack range, the hatred will be lifted directly.
Also before, before Li Si entered stealth and launched the attack, no petitioner noticed Li Si's traces.
Those petitioners were like rigid machines, completely rigid and unflexible.
With my current ability, it is probably difficult to kill these petitioners through close combat.
Li Si put away the dagger in his hand and took out the commonly used jade staff.
Although after a long period of hard training, Li Si's close combat ability has become much stronger than when he was first promoted, but in comparison, Li Si is still more confident in the ability of the mage.
The staff was waved gently, and a dozen blue fireballs appeared in front of Li Si.
[Blue Ball Technique] is Li Si’s first arcane spell, and it is also the arcane spell he has studied most deeply.
Although it is a three-ring arcane spell, with the support of Li Si's arcane spell research and experience points, its power has been greatly enhanced.
What's more, for mages, the higher the level of the spell, the stronger it is.
High-level spells often represent higher-level spells and more special skill effects, and are not necessarily more powerful than low-level spells.
For example, the fireball technique, even in the hands of the legendary mage, is not useful. It is more about becoming a more convenient spell through its own improvement.
[Blue Ball Technique] is one of the most convenient spells used by Li Si.
Under Li Si's control, the blue fireball attacked the petitioner.
The petitioners did not react at first, but when the fireball entered their bodies a few meters, they suddenly looked up.
A pale white shield appeared around their bodies, and the blue fireball directly hit the shield.
Boom boom boom!
The loud noise echoed in the forest glade, but unfortunately there were no birds to startle Li Si.
Li Si was not in a hurry to take action. He noticed that the shield cast by the petitioner was not unharmed under Li Si's attack. It was already full of many cracks.
A shield will be cast, which means that their bodies are not immune to spell attacks, and Li Si's attack is still a threat to them.
More importantly, the shields of these petitioners do not look that strong.
It seems that Li Si's attack disturbed these petitioners. Although Li Si was some distance away from them, he still attacked Li Si directly.
Divinity [Holy Flame Technique]!
Magic [Giant Wave Technique]!
Divine spell [Meteor Impact]!
These four petitioners all seem to have the ability of divine priests. There is no coordination between them. Their current attack methods are more like evocation mages, who continuously cast magical spells directly. Attack Li Si.
As a mage with extremely rich combat experience, Li Si is naturally not afraid of such a scene.
The speed is equivalent to that of an assassin of the same level, allowing Li Si to dodge and avoid attacks more easily.
If you really can't dodge, use protective spells to block one or two.
While Li Si was constantly dodging, he was also trying different types of spells to test the petitioners.
In fact, most of the priests of the gods master the same magical skills, which are mainly divided according to the camp of the gods.
For example, for divine priests in the Order camp, their magical spells are generally [Blessing Technique] and [Sanctuary Technique], which have sacred attributes.
The divine priests of the chaotic camp are more likely to use the divine spells of [Despair] and [Horror].
Of course, this does not mean that priests from the order camp cannot master those evil magic.
For example, those strong men in Dawn Church can also master [Despair Art], but they are not that good at it.
In addition, for different gods, their priests may also master magical arts related to the priestly field of the gods.
For example, this petitioner masters [Giant Wave Technique], which should be a divine technique belonging to the priestly field of Ans El.
Aivar, standing in the distance, carefully crouched aside to watch the battle in the distance.
Looking at this intense scene of flying spell light, Aivar couldn't help but shrink his body to avoid being affected by this terrifying spell.
Although he couldn't understand it, he could feel that if he were allowed to face this situation, he would probably die without a burial place in a short time.
Although Lord Li Si was dodging constantly, he did not look embarrassed, but was able to do it with ease.
Since you don’t need to take action yourself, just be patient.
While watching intently, Aivar suddenly frowned.
For some reason, he suddenly felt a strong urge to go to the other side of the Eastern Forest.
That should be the center of the island!
Aivar gritted his teeth. For a moment, he even thought of leaving Li Si behind.
Now Mr. Li Si is entangled by those strange people, and he can't take care of him at all now.
More importantly, if you follow Li Si all the time, he will definitely get something precious, and it is probably difficult to get anything you want.
Sneaking away? Aivar was silent for a moment, thinking of the attack Lis encountered when the two first entered the island, as well as the strange people they met at this time.
Clenching his teeth, Aivar stayed where he was again.
What are you thinking about yourself!
Based on what Mr. Li Si encountered, he would probably have lost several lives.
The accident along the way made Aivar feel a little frightened, and he immediately suppressed the restlessness in his heart.
After struggling with the petitioners in front of him for a while, Li Si discovered that fire-attribute spells had no obvious effect on these petitioners.
Even the [Blue Ball Technique] is the same.
On the contrary, [Rockfall Technique] and [Earthquake Technique] have some additional effects.
After noticing this, Li Si knew what was going on.
After continuing to attack for a period of time, Li Si noticed that the figures of these petitioners were somewhat dim.
Almost reaching your limit?
Li Si knew what he was doing and quickly stepped up his attack.
For a time, Li Si even began to directly suppress the four petitioners.
This is also because Li Si can dodge the petitioner's attack, while the petitioner can only resist Li Si's spell attack through protective magic.
It is also the petitioners who have gone through a long period of time. Although they are still barely holding on, they are close to dissipating.
As time passed, the petitioner's body began to tremble, and even began to feel a little hollow.
This is the limitation of the existence of energy life. Magic or other power is all they have. Exhaustion of energy is death for them.
Even so, the four petitioners showed no signs of stopping.
They have no ego, no wisdom, no command, and can only rely on their remaining instincts.
The magic light in his hand did not stop, and Li Si's face was calm.
This long-lasting magic attack was as brilliant as fireworks and put a lot of pressure on Li Si.
More than half of the magic power in the body has been consumed, and this was even after Li Si took the magic replenishing potion.
You must know that Li Si possesses a series of powerful mage specialties such as [Extraordinary Magic Power], and as an arcanist, his magic power far exceeds that of mages of the same level.
At this moment, I started to get some encouragement and support.
It lasted for another moment, and suddenly under the pressure of Li Si's [Strength Wall Technique], the silhouette of a petitioner became extremely thin, and his body shook and turned into nothingness.
The appearance of the first one to be defeated was like turning on a switch. Under Li Si's continued oppression, the remaining three petitioners were completely reduced to nothingness.
Huh~
Li Si stood still and let out a long sigh of relief.
This is the first time Li Si has encountered such a long battle since his rebirth.
If this continues for a while, Li Si may be the one who cannot hold on.
Although the fighting methods of those petitioners were quite rigid, after all, it was a continuous attack by four people, which was still quite stressful for Li Si.
After being tense for a long time, Li Si could not help but feel a little tired.
After the petitioner's body dissipated, Li Si waited for a moment and saw no other abnormalities, then walked towards the altar.
Stepping up the stairs step by step, although the petitioner disappeared, for some reason, the faint voice of prayer still appeared in Li Si's ears.
Even though the area around the altar has been reduced to ruins and there is no longer a believer, there seems to be a quiet and sacred atmosphere above the altar.
In a blur, Li Si seemed to see that the Kingdom of God still existed here. Countless petitioners surrounded the altar, kneeling down to pray with great respect under the guidance of a divine envoy with six wings on his back.
Li Si could see a faint power of faith gathering around the altar, surrounding and falling into the green orb.
"Huh~ Is this the scene when believers were praying countless years ago?"
Li Si stood on the steps, was silent for a moment and shook his head.
The countless powerful petitioners reminded Li Si of the scene in his previous life when the demons invaded and a bloody battle broke out.
Countless bronzes and silvers are nothing more than cannon fodder, and can only become firewood in the millstone of flesh and blood.
The golden level is just a slightly more obvious code word in the bloody battle. The bloody battle depends more on the battles between those legends.
As for the hostility and struggle between gods outside the world of Gaia, that is not something Li Si, as a player, can understand.
“With that kind of existence, gold-level, legendary powerhouses, and gods may all turn into the waves of the past in the long river of time and become a passing cloud. I don’t know where I can reach in the future?”
Li Si laughed at himself and shook his head, but the belief in his heart was a little firmer.
Stepping up to the highest point of the altar, Li Si looked at the blue orb on the exquisite stone platform.
Countless years have passed, the Kingdom of God has been destroyed, and the gods have fallen. This special orb can still be preserved, which adds a sense of vicissitudes of time.
Li Si studied the orb for a long time. No matter how he probed it, it had no effect, but he also couldn't feel the dangerous existence.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Si stretched out his hand to grasp the orb suspended in mid-air.
After grabbing the orb, there was no feeling of resistance. The cyan blue stone lay quietly in Li Si's hand.
Some of the hurricane and thunder phenomena that appeared around the orb just now have also converged, as if they were just like an ordinary orb.
——
Ding~
[You get [Ans El’s Faith Crystal]! ]
[[Ans Air’s Faith Crystal]: It was once condensed by Ans Air using divine power, and has the special ability to gather and purify the power of faith]——
The crystallization of faith?
This is the first time Li Si has encountered this kind of treasure, and he has never seen anything similar in his previous life.
Perhaps it is because the secret realms formed by the Kingdom of God are too rare, and the few players who have obtained similar existences have not disclosed the information.
Looking at the introduction of this treasure, it seems to be a treasure related to the power of faith, but Li Si seems to have no need for such a thing now.
“This thing is of no use to others, and it’s of no use to you.”
The black cat's voice appeared at the right moment.
“You know?”
Li Si said with just the right compliment.
“Hmph~”
The black cat hummed twice proudly, and then said.
"I haven't seen it either, but similar situations were mentioned in the information obtained by Sphinx."
"These are one of the most important secrets for the Church of the Gods, and they are usually kept in The core of the church is used to guide the power of faith."
"It is of no use to ordinary people, but it is also good for you."
"What I said before. The aura of divine power is in this!”
