Chapter 132 Blasphemy Goddess, Demon Sephania (6200
This guard sword is a two-handed weapon, exclusive to warriors.
None of Cao Xing’s recruited creatures can be equipped.
After thinking for a moment, Cao Xing threw the sword directly to Ji Xinyue.
Ji Xinyue took it with a confused look on her face…
And when she saw the properties of the big sword, she immediately opened her mouth slightly and exclaimed: “This, this, this… this is a purple weapon!”
“Oh my god!!!”
For a moment, Ji Xinyue stood there in confusion.
“Boss Cao Xing, this is…”
Cao Xing smiled and said: “It’s given to you. None of us can use it. Anyway, you are a warrior.”
But Ji Xinyue shook her head and said: “I…I didn’t mean that, I meant that this weapon is too valuable, I can’t take it…”
No matter how dull she is, she still knows how precious a piece of purple equipment is at this stage!
In the trading channel, a piece of blue equipment is enough to cause a sensation among the survivors.
And purple equipment is even more rare.
However, Cao Xing gave him such a precious weapon, and Ji Xinyue felt that the sword in her hand was a little hot to the touch.
Cao Xing smiled.
Although purple equipment is precious.
But since the girl took him to accept this task, although she was helping herself, she couldn’t really give him no benefit at all.
At this time, Ji Xinyue was holding the big sword and stood there at a loss.
Liu Muxue on the side gently grabbed Ji Xinyue’s palm and said with a smile: “Sister Xinyue, just hold it.”
“Don’t worry so much, Ah Xing is very powerful, and purple equipment is not that precious to him.”
Hearing what Liu Muxue said, Ji Xinyue breathed out slowly, and then said gratefully: “Thank you, Mr. Cao Xing, and thank you, sister Muxue.”
Cao Xing nodded.
at the same time.
Good news comes again.
A powerful aura burst out from Renice!
A sharp aura seemed to appear in her eyes, and her gaze became even sharper! The whole person is like an arrow leaving the string, full of aggression! A system prompt appears.
[Your territory member: Rhaenys Hawkeye successfully advanced to a boss-level creature, all attributes increased by 30%, and new skills have been learned: Storm Arrow]
[Storm Rain of Arrows: Shoots a large number of arrows, causing 6*88% damage to all enemies in the target area. Each hit will cause 1 layer of bleeding effect, and there is a 15% probability of causing a 5-second disability effect. Cooling time: 3 minutes]
…
Seeing the system prompt, Cao Xing’s eyes showed strong joy.
“What a powerful group attack skill!”
Six waves of arrow damage, with bleeding and disability effects, were much stronger than his ice arrow rain.
“Congratulations, Rhaenys.” Cao Xing praised.
Renice looked at Cao Xing, and the sharp aura on her body disappeared instantly and turned into an extremely gentle one.
A shy smile appeared on her serious face, and she bowed slightly and said, “Thank you, Lord. From now on, your orders will be the direction of my arrows, and Rhaenys will always be by your side.”
Cao Xing nodded.
Then, he continued to order: “Let’s go to the last temple, the Giant Hammer Temple!”
Assam and the others obeyed the order and quickly emerged from the temple, then selected one of the passages and moved forward.
They pushed past the waves of soul-eating monsters they encountered on the road!
After their strength has skyrocketed, these third-level soul-eating monsters will not pose much of a threat to them as long as they don’t appear in too many numbers at the same time.
However, I don’t know if it was because of the noise of their battle that disturbed the Soul Eaters in other areas.
Along the way, they encountered six waves of attacks from Soul Eaters.
Although it didn’t cause any harm to them, it slowed down Cao Xing for more than ten minutes.
Fortunately, when they arrived at the Hammer Temple, the gate had not yet been breached.
Then, Cao Xing continued to direct the battle.
“Assam, use the Sword of Justice to sweep back the Soul Eater that rushes towards you!”
“Andrew, the Starfire technique aims at the Soul Eater next to Sarah and draws it over.”
“Hilda, spray the cobwebs quickly to share the pressure with Bronn!”
He issued instructions one by one, and all the recruited creatures were faithfully executing them.
Moreover, with his methodical command, the number of those soul-eating monsters has been steadily decreasing.
Even the arrogant Xierda couldn’t help but look at Cao Xing slightly.
Twenty minutes later, the battle ended.
With a lot of experience, Cao Xing’s level was raised to level 13, and Liu Muxue was raised to level 12.
Including Assam has also been upgraded to level 15.
Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction, “The upgrade speed is really fast!”
At the current stage, most survivors are still around level 4 to 6, and Cao Xing has already started sprinting towards level 20!
You can imagine how big the gap is between them and others.
However, the subsequent upgrade speed will slow down.
Because he is now level 13 and needs 30,000 experience points to upgrade to level 14.
At the same time, everyone looked at Cao Xing with admiration in their eyes.
Several system prompts appear.
[Because of your proper command, you have demonstrated excellent combat capabilities! 】
[Bron’s loyalty to you has been improved, current loyalty: 89]
[Hilda’s loyalty to you has been improved, current loyalty: 71]
…
Cao Xing felt happy because he didn’t expect that even the most difficult Xierda would become more loyal.
It seems that my personality charm is still good.
He looked at the beautiful Blood Spider Queen.
However, Hilda just snorted and turned her head away again.
Bronn touched his bare head, and then said with a smile: “Lord, your command is really timely. Bronn thought he was going to be shot away by the Soul Eater several times, but you saved me every time. “
“If you don’t want to be a lord one day, we can become pirates. I believe that with your commanding ability, our name will soon be heard throughout the ocean!”
Cao Xing glanced at this guy speechlessly.
Why should I become a pirate instead of being a good lord? “Okay, let’s start cleaning the battlefield.”
As Cao Xing’s order was issued, everyone began to take action.
Then, he himself went straight to the temple to rescue the undead.
When all the undead have left, a system prompt will appear.
[Task progress has been updated].
[The mission to the four major temples, Shield Temple, Holy Sword Temple, Torch Temple, and Hammer Temple has been completed, current progress: 4/4]
[You have rescued the undead of Ascalon in all temples. Now, please go to the Cathedral of Kasha to rescue the undead of Duke Palatine and complete the final mission. 】
…
Cao Xing thought to himself: “Have we finally reached the last part of the mission?”
“Next, we have to face the legendary soul-eating demon.”
“According to the undead Calhan, this soul-eating demon has at least level three strength, and it cannot be killed.”
“So much so that they were forced to leave this underground palace.”
“As for what level it is, I’m not sure.”
“And as long as they are not above the leader level, with my current strength, I should be able to deal with them all.”
At this time, Cao Xing glanced at the [Demon Swallowing Box] in his backpack.
“The mission requirements did not say that I should kill this demon. It only said that I should rescue the soul of Duke Palatine.”
“If I can kill this demon, destroy its soul, and return this underground palace to these Ascalonian undead.”
“I don’t know, what kind of reward will they give me?”
Thinking of this, Cao Xing’s mouth curved.
Of course, the premise is that they can defeat the demon’s true form.
If this demon is too strong, then Cao Xing will lead people away without hesitation.
He shook his head and threw all these thoughts behind him.
Then, he went straight to the center of the temple, under the giant hammer statue.
As usual, he opened the silver treasure chest inside.
[The silver treasure chest was opened successfully. 】
[Get skill book: Whirlwind]
[Obtain: Snow Eagle Helmet (Blue)]
[Obtain: Medium Resource Pack*2]
[Obtain: Intermediate element crystal*3]
[Obtain: Medical Kit*2]
…
Cao Xing’s eyes lit up instantly.
“Huh? A skill book and a piece of blue equipment?”
“Damn, I’m so lucky to open this box!”
Take a look at the properties.
[Whirlwind: Polar Warrior Skill Book]
[Skill effect: Wave the weapon in your hand to quickly attack all surrounding enemy targets, causing physical damage equal to attack power * 188%, and there is a 30% chance of knocking the enemy away. Cooling time: 60 seconds]
…
[Snow Eagle Helmet lv10 (blue)]
[Armor: 7~11]
[With special effects ①: Spirit +5, Physique +5]
[With special effect ②: Snow Eagle Protection (when the head is attacked, the damage taken is reduced by 10%, and the critical hit rate of this attack is reduced by 20%)]
[Included special effect ③: Snow Wings (the feathers of the snow eagle have a decorative effect, charm +3)]
(Equipment introduction: Listen, your helmet looks very nice, but I still prefer my horn helmet – Corporal: Andrea Capo.)…
Cao Xing threw the [Whirlwind] book directly to Ji Xinyue.
As for the [Snow Eagle Helmet], after thinking for a moment, Cao Xing decided to put it on himself first.
Although this helmet can be used by both himself and Liu Muxue, he is a fragile mage and his survivability is not as good as Liu Muxue.
So it’s better to save your life first.
Ji Xinyue continued the [Whirlwind] skill book blankly.
Before she could say anything else, Cao Xing had already started searching for those coffins.
The other men also finished cleaning the battlefield.
As usual, a lot of materials were harvested, as well as the souls of two elite soul-eating monsters.
But it’s a pity that he didn’t reveal his boss-level soul this time.
This shattered Cao Xing’s idea of raising Braun to the boss level.
They had almost finished searching the last temple.
Cao Xing ordered: “Let’s go to the last place, Kasha Cathedral!”
After hearing this instruction, everyone cheered up at the same time.
Because they knew that this was the last mission of the entire underground palace.
So far, Cao Xing’s gains this time can be said to be quite amazing.
Except for not getting epic-level props, other gains even exceeded the goblin treasure trove.
The strength of all members has skyrocketed!
Then, they followed the map and wandered through the Everview Corridor.
On the way, we encountered four or five waves of Soul Eater attacks again, but they were all killed.
But when she was about to cross a new passage, Ji Xinyue said from behind: “Wait a minute.”
Cao Xing asked doubtfully: “What’s wrong?”
Cao Xing nodded.
He did remember what Calhan said that the Temple of Everlook was the first area to be captured by the Soul Eater.
However, if you want to reach the Kasha Church, you must pass by here.
After thinking for a moment, Cao Xing decided to go and see what was going on inside.
And when he cautiously came to the entrance of the passage and looked inside the temple, his pupils suddenly shrank! He retreated calmly, his face a little ugly.
“Axing…what’s wrong?” Liu Muxue asked softly.
“Holy crap! There are at least hundreds of soul-eating monsters in the temple. It seems that this road is impossible to pass.”
Hearing this, everyone also frowned.
There are hundreds of soul-eating monsters, and they are all third-level creatures.
Even they would not be able to withstand it if they were besieged.
Moreover, such a large quantitative gap cannot be solved by tactics.
For a moment, everyone was at a loss.
Ji Xinyue saw the worry on Cao Xing’s face and continued to take out the map, seeming to be studying something.
After a moment, Ji Xinyue’s eyes suddenly lit up.
“Hey, I saw inside the Torch Temple, there seems to be a hidden path that leads directly to the Kasha Church.”
“Trail?”
After hearing this, Cao Xing’s expression perked up, and then he came over and leaned next to Ji Xinyue to check the map.
And as Cao Xing looked down, their cheeks were almost touching.
He was looking at the map carefully and didn’t realize anything.
But Ji Xinyue froze in place, not daring to make any move.
She could even feel Cao Xing’s body temperature and his breath on the tip of his nose.
For a moment, Ji Xinyue held the corner of the map tightly with her ten jade fingers, her heart pounding.
Cao Xing observed it and saw a secret passage in the Torch Temple.
I already have an idea in mind.
“Come on, let’s take another route.”
Following Cao Xing’s order, the team quickly retreated and changed directions.
At this time, Ji Xinyue was following the team, keeping her head lowered, as if she was afraid that Cao Xing would notice her red face.
Everyone soon arrived at the Torch Temple.
Since this temple had been searched by them once before, no secret passage was found.
But since there are marks on the map, it must be there.
So they began to search more carefully.
Soon, Rhaenys activated the [Eye of Hunting] and discovered a hidden secret door on the wall in the corner.
Cao Xing’s eyes were filled with joy, and then he quickly walked over, and then used the [Stone Talisman] in his hand to open the secret door passage.
“Boom!”
A hidden passage just appeared in front of everyone.
Cao Xing weighed the stone talisman in his hand and said happily: “This thing is really easy to use.”
“Sure enough, as long as you are in this underground palace, any door can be opened.”
Then, he led the team and moved forward in this passage.
It took about ten minutes of twists and turns.
A stone door appeared in front again.
After opening it with the stone talisman in my hand, the scene in front of me suddenly became clear! Cao Xing saw an extremely wide cathedral.
The floor height is estimated to be hundreds of meters, and the area is estimated to be more than ten square kilometers. It looks like a huge square.
Rows of stone statues line both sides.
In the center of the church, there are a large number of opened coffins. After a cursory glance, there are six to seven hundred coffins! “I’ll go, so many?”
Cao Xing was secretly shocked.
Obviously, these coffins have been opened, and all the undead inside must have been eaten.
Cao Xing had some bad premonitions in his heart.
Because according to what Calhan said, this soul-eating demon will increase its strength by devouring the dead.
This time, it devoured so many undead souls, and its strength must have reached a terrifying level.
But think on the bright side.
The undead here have been eaten, so during the battle, the soul-eating demon will not be able to regain health by devouring the undead.
Cao Xing was happy, with a strange smile on his face.
And he also noticed that on a platform in the center of the cathedral, there was a gorgeous coffin.
It is inlaid with sparkling gems and golden lines, which looks very extraordinary at first glance.
This should be Duke Palatine’s coffin.
“Eh? No, gem!”
Cao Xing’s eyes lit up instantly.
At this time, Ji Xinyue wondered: “Didn’t you say that the demon in Kasha Cathedral is also here?”
“Why didn’t you see it?”
Cao Xing also looked around and found no demons.
On the contrary, the lights above this church are extremely bright.
Various flying flags and solemn statues make this place look extremely sacred.
Cao Xing also saw a beautiful female statue erected next to the Duke’s coffin.
She has a well-proportioned figure, holds a shield and a one-handed sword in her hands, and wears a half-breastplate, which highlights her slender waist.
The slender legs were tense, as if they were ready to go.
The whole statue is full of a sense of sanctity and inviolability.
Rhaenys said at this time: “That is the statue of the goddess Kermir.”
“Goddess Kermir?”
“Yes.”
Rhaenys nodded and said: “This is the goddess in charge of order and truth. It is said that when her power reappears in the world, a new order will be born.”
Cao Xing nodded and then said.
“No matter, if the demon is not here, we can save ourselves the trouble and just open Duke Palatine’s coffin and run away.”
Cao Xing made a decision quickly.
Then, he led the team towards the location of the statue of the goddess Kermir.
Duke Palatine’s coffin is there. Once it is successfully opened, it is equivalent to completing the last step of the mission.
And just then.
Cao Xing suddenly noticed that the corners of the sacred goddess statue’s mouth curved.
Her stone-carved eyes seemed to move a few times before looking at Cao Xing and others.
“Um?”
Cao Xing looked carefully and found that the statue’s expression had returned to its original state.
His face was full of doubts, “Did I see it wrong?”
However, when he raised his head again, he found that the mouth of the goddess statue opened in a wide arc, which looked extremely strange.
This time, Cao Xing was sure that he had read correctly, and he hurriedly ordered.
“stop!”
Everyone stopped and then followed Cao Xing’s gaze and looked at the statue.
Suddenly everyone looked shocked.
At this moment, the statue gradually changed from white to black.
As if the devil’s skin had grown, a thick black oil film wrapped the statue, with many blackened animal entrails hanging on it.
Thick black liquid dripped from the statue, dyeing the ground black.
Not only that, the reproductive organs of various animals also grew out of the statue’s breasts.
This scene simply made it impossible for everyone on the field to look straight at it!
Rhaenys gritted her teeth and said angrily: “To actually… do such a thing to the statue of the goddess Kermir, what a sacrilege!”
However, before Rhaenys could finish her words, the head of the statue rolled down.
Boom!
The huge statue’s head hit the altar below, making a dull sound.
The next moment, everyone saw a huge shadow emerging from the neck of the headless statue.
The specific face of this shadow cannot be seen clearly, and the facial features can only be barely made out through the hollows on its face.
At this moment, the shadow opened its big black mouth, showed a strange smile, and then slowly opened its mouth.
“The world said I was a devil, and the clergy hung me on the gallows.”
“As the exorcism ceremony progressed, the ignorant people sang along with the song…the song I wrote for the Holy See hundreds of years ago…”
“When the bench is taken away, when my eyes begin to turn white…”
“Who does this dying light belong to?”
…
It was like the voice of an old witch rang in my ears.
Hoarse, harsh! Everyone looked at the shadow on the statue in surprise.
“Oh~ look, who is here?”
“A group of humans, Ascalonians, dark elves, and a… spider…”
“Hmm…it’s really good~”
Cao Xing raised his head and asked, “Are you the soul-eating demon?”
The shadow chuckled and said: “Oh~ I am not a devil, I am a goddess who can fulfill the wishes of the world.”
“Do you want the treasures in this palace?”
“Do you want the legendary weapon in the hand of that cowardly king – Magdale?”
“As long as you possess this weapon, you can command all the Ascalonian undead on this continent!”
“Now~ little one, tell me, what is your wish?”
Cao Xing was puzzled. This demon seemed to know a lot.
He even knows that there are treasures in this underground palace.
Assam reminded: “Lord, don’t listen to this guy’s monstrous words to confuse people. This is a method used by demons.”
“They will first use words to confuse people, and then break through your inner defenses and turn you into their puppet!”
Cao Xing nodded.
Of course he is not that stupid, how could he just listen to the devil’s words.
He silently glanced at the attributes of this demon.
