Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest

Chapter 286 Old... old friend?

Koros looked at the figure in front of him in disbelief, and the remaining smile on his face finally disappeared completely at this moment.

But he saw a subtle arc on the corner of Luo Xiu Carlos's mouth.

The smile will not disappear, it will only move from one face to another.

After collecting the drops of "Death God's Heir" and looting the base of "Dead Bishop" Passaro, Luo Xiu came here without hesitation.

During this period, he had accurately grasped the general situation of the battlefield through the information shared in real time on the player forum - he knew that the black army was indeed out in full force, and "Executioner" Koros and "Hidden Elder" Baberon also came with the army. Hubert was fighting one against two, but he could still hold on.

And Luo Xiu's arrival was quite timely in Hubert's view - unlike the extreme surprise on Koros's face, Hubert showed a surprised expression on his face.

He thought that Luo Xiu would need more time to "recover" from the weakness caused by the previous battle with the God of Death, but Luo Xiu's full recovery time was much faster than Hubert thought.

This time, Hubert had no more scruples.

Without saying hello to Luo Xiu, Hubert had already raised his war hammer, and the White Lion of the Heart behind him also raised his giant sword synchronously.

Then, aiming at the direction of Koros, Hubert's figure suddenly flashed towards the target in his eyes, accompanied by a fierce gust of wind that hit Koros' chest directly!

Koros's heart was alarmed, and he hurriedly retreated, and his finger suddenly flicked on the blade of the snake-shaped cone blade.

——Ding! A crisp sound came out, and just above Hubert's attack path, the air twitched violently, and quickly condensed into three illusory high walls.

That authority came from the same source as the "bell curtain" held by Koros, but it changed the form of manifestation. Hubert raised his war hammer and smashed it down on the first phantom screen!

——Boom! The dazzling golden light burst out, and the first phantom screen was quickly shattered. The aftermath had caused ripples on the surface of the second phantom screen.

——Boom! Hubert's second hammer arrived soon, and the second phantom screen also shattered like glass.

Koros looked at Hubert who was constantly attacking with some horror, and the sense of uneasiness in his heart became stronger and stronger.

Seeing that Hubert was about to shatter the third phantom screen, and the giant sword raised by the illusory white lion behind him would then fall on him, Koros raised his dagger, and the black light in his eyes appeared and flashed again.

——He wanted to take back the shadow power he had just given to those ordinary soldiers!

Koros understood very deeply that if it was a one-on-one fight, he was not the opponent of the "Saint Deacon" Hubert on the opposite side.

Moreover, the power was distributed. The "Shadow Military Advisor" [Ku Tu] profession was very dependent on the environment, and the current clear single-player environment was quite unfavorable to Koros.

A deep black mist had spread from his dagger, and after wandering around, it returned to the dagger.

"..."

Koros widened his eyes.

This was not the result he expected.

——The "shadow" power given out did not return to his snake-shaped cone blade!

In a very short period of time, Koros tried to recall the power of "shadow" three times, but all ended in failure.

The black mist that had previously permeated from it was a medium that could arouse the spiritual resonance of "shadow", but Koros did not feel any resonance transmitted back from it!

The uneasiness in his heart gradually spread, and his eyes unconsciously moved away from Hubert and looked at the berserk soldiers who had previously fought with the enemy's "city guards".

Later, Koros was horrified to find that the thousands of frenzy soldiers had all died - most of them died in extremely cruel ways, with their limbs torn off, their heads smashed, their bodies cut in half... If it weren't for the "frenzy" state that wiped out their consciousness, it would have been almost a massacre in purgatory.

However, the death of thousands of frenzy soldiers was secondary. Koros saw a more terrifying and incredible scene -

The number of the city guards fighting against the "frenzy soldiers" he gave power to was still the same as before, with almost no sharp decrease! No corpses of the "city guards" were seen on the battlefield. Koros even saw the faces of several soldiers who had been torn to pieces by the frenzy soldiers!

The fanaticism on their faces became more and more intense. At this time, they had dispersed from the original battlefield and began to slaughter the surrounding dark army like a meat grinder.

"What's going on... What's going on..." Koros was really panicked, and his mind couldn't help but be in a trance for a moment.

At this moment, he heard the crisp sound of the third illusion curtain breaking.

Then, he felt a scorching wind blowing, and his cheeks stung like fire.

Koros quickly came to his senses, and Hubert's Heart Lion had already clenched the giant sword and slashed it down!

——Buzz!!! Koros heard a high-pitched, sharp buzzing sound, and then his chest was hit by a huge stone, and the whole person flew backwards.

The Heart Lion's Slash had hit his body firmly, and even if it failed to cut him in half, it was enough to cause him considerable injuries.

While Koros was being chopped off, Hubert had already swung his war hammer and chased Koros with the Heart Lion!

This was a rare opportunity, an opportunity to execute Koros in one go!

Hubert would never let it go easily.

…

While Hubert and Koros were engaged in a fierce battle, on the other side.

“Hidden Elder” Baberon gave the summoned puppets the order to attack without hesitation, and they all surrounded Luo Xiu.

More than a dozen “Mad Evil” puppets of various shapes suddenly stimulated surging spiritual fluctuations in their bodies and entered the posture of attack preparation.

During this process, “Hidden Elder” Baberon, who was hidden behind the group of puppets, was carefully looking at Luo Xiu Carlos opposite him, with a certain curiosity and amazement in his eyes.

"Luo Xiu Carlos, you are indeed... unexpected."

Baberon said lightly: "I didn't expect that you would break through the shackles and ascend to the 'holy' - in the history of the 'Holy Court', you should be the fastest priest to be promoted to this level... hehe."

"What a pity, what a pity. You and I are on different destinies, and the 'omniscience' I serve is also unacceptable to you. I will kill you here, just as you will kill me without hesitation if you have the ability..."

"..."

Baberon's voice gradually became illusory and ethereal. As the "mad evil" puppets gradually surrounded him, Luo Xiu could no longer see the vision behind them.

Feeling the approaching spiritual surge, Luo Xiu cast several auxiliary holy arts on himself at the same time. At the same time, he summoned the "Holy Flame Wolf King" Fenrir and the "Burning Feather Raven" Misty Night, letting them surround his body.

Soon, the first "Mad Evil" puppet was dispatched. The temperature of its eight metal arms continued to rise, and its eight palms were opened. The palms were aimed at Luo Xiu's position, and eight rays of different colors were shot at him!

——Boom! Boom boom boom! The rays burst out at the position where Luo Xiu was, and the surroundings were immediately occupied by the diffused smoke.

Luo Xiu took this attack hard, and the shield value given by "Triple Holy Protection" was broken by half, and he did not escape from his original position.

At the moment when the light mist dissipated, Luo Xiu had also completed the next few prayers of holy arts.

Six small holy swords of annihilation had condensed and surrounded him. When the first "Mad Evil" puppet attacked him, the six holy swords of annihilation also shot in the direction of the puppet!

Unlike Luo Xiu, who had a variety of means to save his life, most puppets did not have strong defensive means, because this often meant breaking through the shackles of the design.

Boom boom boom! The six holy swords had flown to the front of the laser puppet and pierced it in an instant!

Before it could launch its next round of blast, it collapsed into a pile of scrap metal.

But more "mad evil" puppets stepped on its remains and surged up, and more of their attacking postures had locked onto Luo Xiu's figure.

Seeing this, Luo Xiu still did not dodge, but continued to pray.

His health value has now exceeded 40,000. With the defense characteristics of holy arts such as "God's Glory Coming to the World" and "Triple Holy Protection", this type of "mad evil" puppet even takes a long time to scratch his shield.

Even though they do have a lot of "black devouring runes" and "rotten bone alchemy" modifications, in Luo Xiu's eyes, these are not worth mentioning threats.

Therefore, Luo Xiu no longer needs to spend energy dodging their attacks, and can instead focus more on praying for holy arts to speed up the return of holy arts.

The first puppet had been dismantled into scrap metal by the "Holy Annihilation Sword Formation", and more puppets had already rushed to Luo Xiu, but under their unconscious gaze, they only saw layers of golden rings bursting out from Luo Xiu's body.

In the air where the two puppets were located, a conspicuous crack suddenly tore open, and a meteor with golden light fell violently on their heads!

——Boom! Boom boom boom! The rolling meteors of the "Golden Starburst" fell rapidly, smashing several deep pits in the body of a huge earth and stone puppet, and completely turning it into dust again.

Then, the other "Mad Evil Puppets" that attacked were blown away by a huge force at the moment when the golden ring around Luo Xiu suddenly burst out, and their original process of charging and attacking was interrupted.

——"Divine Light Rhythm"! This is another holy technique that Luo Xiu used before.

This holy art with a range-pushing effect, although the damage is not high, is often effective in the face of siege. After pushing away all the "mad evil" puppets around, Luo Xiu immediately gave new instructions to the three "holy beasts" on standby.

"Roar!——" Fenrir roared, and then he jumped into the air and spewed out a long-accumulated column of fire below.

And the "burning feather raven" Wu Ye was hiding in the column of fire, creating countless "fire feathers" to fuel the fire, making Fenrir's prairie fire burn more fiercely.

Just where Fenrir spewed the column of fire, there were three "mad evil" puppets. They were pushed away by Luo Xiu's divine light rhythm and piled up there. Just as they were about to get up and attack Luo Xiu again.

But the next second, the brilliant flames engulfed them and quickly melted their bodies.

Their cores were soon exposed, and then another golden light column fell from the sky!

——Boom! ! ! The "Golden Pegasus" sent down a beam of annihilation light, completely shattering the cores of the three "Madness" puppets, and the countless flying stars condensed around it also shot down, causing continuous damage to the bodies of the puppets wandering around!

The puppets were forced to stop their original attacking posture, and the remaining eight puppets began to avoid the attacks of Luo Xiu and his "holy beasts", and the attack and defense sides were reversed for a while.

This scene made Baberon, who had hidden his body, frown.

Although the intention of letting dozens of "mad evil" puppets launch a joint attack on Luo Xiu was just to test him, and he did not really want to kill him in this way, but Luo Xiu's performance still exceeded Baberon's expectations.

The "presiding priest" of the church... no, now it should be "Church Bishop" Luo Xiu Carlos, the fighting power he showed was definitely not just the level of the newly promoted "Saint" - his calm posture when fighting, and the spiritual surge that continuously burst out from his body, that should be the reaction that can only be achieved after being promoted to "Saint" for at least ten years!

Baberon, who has lived for hundreds of years, would never have made a mistake about this, but it was precisely because of this that Baberon was even more confused - Luo Xiu Carlos, no matter how he looked at him, was just a young man who had just reached adulthood. He could never have had such a long time to accumulate strength, which was completely contrary to Baberon's common sense.

The more Baberon looked at him, the more he felt that Luo Xiu Carlos was definitely a genius that was hard to come by in hundreds of years. But Baberon also understood the principle of "his genius is my great enemy", and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he should be killed while he was still young!

With this thought, Baberon no longer kept it to himself. He raised his arm and wrote a series of complex instructions in the air.

Suddenly, the "Crazy Evil" puppets who were still avoiding the attacks of Luo Xiu and his holy beasts stopped their actions one after another, and then ran towards Baberon at the same time.

Their bodies gradually became illusory, turning into spiritual threads that drilled into several magic crystal pendants in Baberon's hand, and disappeared from the battlefield.

Then, Baberon took out the other two scarlet magic crystals.

While recalling the "Mad Evil" puppet, Baberon had already infused new spirituality into the scarlet magic crystal, causing the surface of the magic crystal to float with dazzling luster.

"——Roar!!!"

Then, a roar mixed with electric current and mechanical sound suddenly came from mid-air!

A six-winged, two-headed bronze dragon appeared and roared in mid-air!

——That is also a puppet! [Burning Sky Dragon] is a puppet rated as "natural disaster"!

And under the bronze dragon, another magic knight in ancient armor appeared.

He held a curved hunting knife that was more than twice as long as a human. The armor on his body was a piece of dark dragon scales, and the armor pieces reflected a dazzling luster.

And its breath was even stronger than the bronze dragon hovering in the air!

The moment the panel detected the result, Luo Xiu couldn't help but widen his eyes.

That was also the puppet of "Natural Disaster"! And its name was...

——【Dragon Hunter·Lockland】!

"......?"

Luo Xiu felt that he might, probably, maybe... vaguely saw the figure of an old friend.
