Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest

After killing the "Executioner" and "Soul Taker" Zaska.

Luo Xiu met with the players who had been freed from the "Soul Taker" control and gave them new tasks. He then rode on the "Golden Pegasus" and galloped towards the direction of Zaska's residence.

He knew that the Kaveri Fortress would soon be breached, and the "Black Fangs" and "Fang Heads" who were resisting under Zaska's hands would not be able to hold out for too long.

In the nightmare difficulty commission task called [Kaveri Copper Wall] that he gave to the players, a total of 78 [Skulls of Martyrs] carried by the players had been detonated.

The walls of the Kaveri Fortress were on the verge of complete destruction.

The clergy of the church and the cavalry of the "Border Court" [Supreme] Knights were now pouring into the Kaveri Fortress unstoppably, wielding the blades of judgment on the "Black Fangs" and "Fang Heads" who were still resisting stubbornly in the fortress.

The smell of blood from the killing had now spread throughout the entire Kaveri Fortress.

Even though it was not yet dawn, the blazing flames still made the blood light of the whole city red.

Luo Xiu was in mid-air, on the back of Pegasus, overlooking this scene.

At the same time, he had also opened the panel and looked at some new content that had just emerged in it -

It was in his promotion mission [Ascension of the Holy Wings].

[Mission Objective 4: Punish heretics with divine punishment, current divine punishment points 2263/20000]

The progress of "Mission Objective 4" has been refreshed in real time.

When Luo Xiu actually killed "Executor" Zaska, his progress jumped up by nearly 2,000 points!

About 2,000 points, this is the approximate number of divine punishment points that can be obtained by judging a heretic saint at the level of "Five-fold Fate".

The divine punishment points that can be given to heretics who judge "Four-fold Fate" and below are much less. In Luo Xiu's own panel, he killed "Executor" Zaska and killed a dozen "Black Fangs" and "Fang Heads" at the same time, which only added up to nearly 300 "divine punishment points".

Luo Xiu roughly calculated these in his mind, and his eyes immediately fell on the other side, on a newly triggered task——

[Triggering the main task: Grand Sacred Expedition (Destruction Difficulty)]

[Recommended level: lv.50+, Five-fold Fate and above]

[Task type: Faction task]

[……]

Such a "mainline mission" was refreshed in Luo Xiu's mission panel.

——In addition to the main quest [War of Judgment], the second [Main Quest] of version 1.0!

And this new main quest even has the difficulty and recommended level marked.

The various rewards it gives for completion are also much higher than the real main quest [War of Judgment]!

The richness of it was so great that even Luo Xiu couldn't help but be stunned.

He quickly browsed through all the contents of this newly triggered [Main Mission], and couldn't help but show an excited and interested look on his face.

The mission difficulty of "Destruction", in the previous life, was the mission difficulty level that would only be triggered after players could be promoted to the "Sixth Level of Destiny" in version 4.0.

The rewards are also at the same level as the rewards for missions in the "Calamity" difficulty and "Six Fate Paths".

In Luo Xiu's memory, as an "adventurer" in his previous life, he had also embarked on a "holy expedition", but he did not trigger such a hidden [main mission].

But that doesn't mean that no tasks are triggered.

In the previous life, there was indeed a mission triggered through the "Holy Crusade", but it was a "side line"——

[Side Mission: Embark on a Sacred Journey (Hell Difficulty)], players now also have this mission in their taskbar, but the difficulty of the mission does not reach the level of "Destruction", and the rewards are not as good as [Magnificent and Sacred] Expedition (Destruction difficulty)] is so rich...

This made Luo Xiu have some guesses.

——Maybe it’s because of the difference in status?

After all, I have already exceeded the level limit of lv.30 in version 1.0 of "God's Destiny", and even exceeded it by a lot.

Although I can accept tasks, complete tasks, and receive rewards like a player, I can't be considered a real player after all - I don't have the immortality like a player, but I don't have the "restrictions" like a player.

This allows many hidden tasks that were originally difficult to trigger in version 1.0 due to lack of level or depth of fate to be triggerable on oneself.

This can be regarded as a huge advantage... Luo Xiu thought to himself.

And his eyes were still lingering on the new main quest, [The Magnificent and Sacred Expedition (Destruction Difficulty)].

This newly triggered main line and its additional mission objectives list all the fortresses and important towns in the "Fafnir Territory".

Obviously, to reach and conquer "Fafnir City" quickly - it is not possible to conquer all the fortresses and important towns one by one.

At this time - when Fafnir, the "chief executioner" of Fafnir, was confronting Gawain and the Matsubara army led by another "Knight of Heaven", this was exactly the time. A perfect opportunity to capture Fafnir City as soon as possible.

Therefore, there are always some trade-offs for this newly triggered main quest...

Luo Xiu thought to himself.

Before he actually embarked on the expedition, he had already negotiated with "Thunder General" Albert about the seven fortresses and three towns that must be conquered on the only way to the expedition.

That was also the order given by Lord Gawain to Albert, and Luo Xiu had no intention of changing the original plan.

And he can completely conquer the city of Fafnir according to the fastest route, and then lead the priests or the army to disperse to other fortresses or towns that have not yet been conquered——

As long as Fafnir, the "Chief Executioner" and the "Dragon of Destruction", finally realizes that his home has been stolen and has to regard himself as the biggest threat, there is still a lot that can be done.

"..."

Luo Xiu was thinking about this.

After the panel triggered the new main line [The Grand Sacred Expedition], he quickly drew up the prototype of the plan in his mind.

He immediately closed the task panel and his eyes fell on the "mailbox" icon on the other side, which was flashing a bright and conspicuous red dot.

Everything you planned can be put aside for now——

And what he can't wait to do now is to settle the kill reward of the "Executioner" and "Soul Reaver" Zaska who he just killed!

Draw a card! .jpg

An excited expression appeared on Luo Xiu's face.

Just before he was about to arrive at Zaska's official residence for his next harvest.

He had clasped his palms together on Pegasus's back, performing a ritualistic sacrifice——

"I sacrifice Anthony's ten years of celibacy!"

“I sacrifice Albert’s ten years of celibacy!”

"I sacrifice... uh, Thomas has been single for ten years?"

"--smoke!"

After completing these "necessary metaphysics", he gave the mailbox panel the "receive" command.

The eye-catching red dots that kept blinking and flickering in it disappeared.

In front of Luo Xiu, azure light and shadow immediately floated, and his panel quickly displayed the settlement result——

[Kill "Soul Reaver" Zaska (lv.48) and gain 12878 basic experience points]

["Scorching Soul" takes effect, gain 20% additional experience points]

["Soul of Corruption" takes effect, gaining 30% additional experience points]

["Evil Soul" takes effect, gaining 50% additional experience points]

["Noble Holy Judgment" takes effect, gaining 16 free attribute points]

[Reward settlement, actually gained 25756 experience points! 】

【……】

["Soul Reaper" Zaska is a natural disaster-level boss]

[Rewards for killing natural disaster-level bosses are being generated...]

【……】

[Kill reward has been generated]

[Acquire the expertise "Snake Ghoul's Cup (Epic)", free attribute points*10]!

[The Cup of the Snake Ghoul (Epic): ‘The Devouring Snake’, He has cast his gaze upon you. 】

[He has regarded you as food - delicious food that can fill His emptiness. But before that, He will do His best to feed you with His kindness, so that you can get the false, but real, addictive pleasure. ]

[Your all attributes are increased by 50%, and your health, mana, physical attack, and spell attack are increased by an additional 50%, and you can get 20% of the experience points required to upgrade to the next level every day. ]

[Price: You will die. After 62 days, the 'Void Devouring Snake' will appear and descend, using your body as His food cup, eating your soul and filling His emptiness. ]

[……]

"……Ah?"

When the panel calculated such reward content, Luo Xiu couldn't help but say "Ah?".

Damn, the sacrifice is poisonous! .jpg

In the general boss reward calculation, the expertise that can be obtained is what the "boss" once had.

That is, this expertise, "Soul Reaper" Zaska once had!

And the end of this executioner in his previous life seemed to be that he suddenly died of soul loss in the official residence where he was guarding the fortress at that time.

These vague memories automatically emerged in Luo Xiu's mind, and he reset the result of this settlement with "Wrong Path Explorer" without hesitation.

[……]

[Regenerating the reward for killing the natural disaster-level boss...]

[The killing reward has been regenerated]

[Obtain the expertise "Reverberation of the Void Devourer (Epic)", free attribute points * 10]!

[Reverberation of the Void Devourer (Epic): You once heard the sound of His ethereal body swimming past your ears in your dream. ]

[Your "Perception" attribute is increased by 48 points, and your "Spell Attack" gains an additional calculation base of 5 times the "Perception" value. ]

[The Snake of Nothingness will guide you-you have entered the "Nothingness". At the same level of destiny, your attacks and effects on the target "soul" will be increased by 30%, while other attacks and effects on your "soul" will be reduced by 30%. 】

【This specialty is a necessary specialty for promotion to the "Sixth Fate" of [Nothingness]. 】

【……】

"This is OK..."

Looking at the result of the reset, Luo Xiu nodded slightly.

He then confirmed the result of this settlement, and felt as if he really heard the rustling sound of the "Void Snake" swimming by his side, accompanied by a sudden piercing coldness on his body.

And this abnormal feeling soon subsided. After the "Perception" attribute was improved, he felt that his senses became more sensitive and clearer.

After sinking down to feel the changes in perception for a while, Luo Xiu then closed the panel.

And he, driving the "Golden Pegasus", had arrived at the previous official residence of "Executioner" Zanska.

……

In the official residence of Zanska in Kaveri Fortress.

The huge stained glass window, about two people's body, was broken into pieces at this time.

Luo Xiu rode the "Golden Pegasus" and smashed it directly. At this time, he was standing in the mansion, in the gorgeous room that originally belonged to Zaska.

He came here in advance for a reason -

According to the memory of the previous life, it was after the "Executioner" Zaska died suddenly due to the "Snake Cup", the players at that time conquered the fortress that Zaska originally guarded and went to his mansion. It was in the depths of his room that they found a scroll of "ancient heritage".

And that was not an ordinary "ancient heritage".

——It was an ancient heritage scroll engraved with "Level I authority"!

If nothing unexpected happened, since Zaska was transferred to the Kaveri Fortress, he should have brought that authority scroll with him.

And that just happened to allow him to add one more "Level I authority" to the five "Level I authorities" required to be mastered in the second task objective of his promotion task [Ascension of the Holy Wings].

Luo Xiu had such a purpose, and he had already walked into the depths of Zaska's room.

He had seen that beside a luxurious bed, there was an equally luxurious locked treasure chest.

——It was even a "password lock" made with high-precision rotating shaft technology similar to the industrial age.

In Luo Xiu's memory, to open the lock of this treasure chest, it was necessary to decrypt it in Zaska's mansion.

In the previous life, when the players broke into the mansion and entered Zaska's room, they would see Zaska's fresh and warm body who had just died.

Then——they had to find clues to the password from various corners of the mansion and Zaska's body, and finally complete the decryption.

However, Luo Xiu had forgotten the password, and he was not the one who opened the treasure chest of "Executioner" Zaska in the previous life——he only knew what was locked in the treasure chest, and knew very few details other than that.

But in fact, there is more than just "decryption" to open Zaska's treasure chest——

Thinking of this, Luo Xiu had walked to the luxuriously decorated treasure chest, stretched out his right hand, and gently grasped the copper lock on it.

Then, he gathered the extremely rich [Glorious] spirituality in his right hand, activated it, and transformed it into the spirituality of "annihilation", and at the same time, all five fingers exerted force together -

Snap!

The copper lock quickly deformed and twisted under the crushing force, and the annihilation spirituality also attached to the copper lock with the force applied by Luo Xiu's fingertips, causing parts of it to peel off like debris.

What mystery is being solved! .jpg

As long as the attribute value is sufficient and there is no self-destruct mechanism, then in the eyes of serious players, there is no option to bother to decrypt!

Snap!

Click!

When a crisp sound came from the completely deformed lock, it was completely broken in the middle.

Nothing could stop Luo Xiu from opening the treasure chest in front of him.

So he put the damaged copper lock aside, supported the edges of the treasure chest with both hands, and gently opened it-

In an instant, a bright white and golden light flashed into Luo Xiu's eyes.

There were thousands of "platinum coins" and various gold and silver jewelry that were priceless at first glance.

The dazzling light was emitted from these things, and their total value was at least 300,000 gold coins.

And the most inconspicuous one was the scroll of "authority" placed in the middle, surrounded by the shining platinum coins and gold and silver jewelry.

Luo Xiu gently took out the scroll from the pile of jewelry and unfolded it.

There was a somewhat abstract picture with obscure meaning on it—a giant snake was cut into two pieces by a red giant sword, and the back half of its body, along with the splattered "snake blood", was smashed into a gray, blurry ball by a golden giant hammer, which was flashing a dark, deep light.

…
