Chapter 257 Rune Replacement and Escape!
"Great Lord of the Lost, please let us return to Fisher. We want to present you with a mysterious treasure!"
Avoiding Aldridge and others, Byrne knelt on the ground and prayed silently.
He had obtained two forbidden items from Best, but he never had the chance to sacrifice them. Now, because of the black mist, they finally had the chance to return to the family.
Deep down, Byrne felt that he should at least sacrifice the mirror and the giant sword to the Lord of the Lost.
Afterwards, he and Chris would also be able to gain access to the rune power contained within them.
Byrne, who has already stepped onto the fourth step, could have obtained the second rune power long ago, but he just never had the chance.
He prayed again from the bottom of his heart.
Great Lord of the Lost!
Please let us return to Fischer!
Chris also knelt on the ground, closed his eyes, and silently prayed to the God who protected his family.
However, their prayers received no response.
"What's going on?"
"It seems that the great Lord of the Lost has not responded to us."
Byrne felt a little disappointed, and Chris shook his head slightly and sighed.
In fact, Carl didn't think he needed to meet every request. At least deep down in his heart, he felt that he must not let the Fisher family think that he was a tool.
In fact, he could clearly feel that although the Fisher family still maintained their respect and admiration, some of the Dawnbringers had become corrupted in their hearts.
There are a few Dawnbreakers who simply worship power itself rather than having enough respect for themselves.
Those people do still have a faint faith, but their light spots are dim on the virtual map and they may disappear at any time.
For example, Colin, the businessman who embarked on the road of contract, and Inna from the newspaper, both of them have become very weak in their faith.
Perhaps one day, Colin and Inna's belief in light will disappear completely.
If that time comes, Carl will refuse to give them any more power.
Although he has never cared much about the strength of faith, it is unlikely to give power to people who have no faith in him at all.
Lucius was a special case. After all, the Fisher family at that time had no other support points.
However, Carl also knew that the thick white fog often came only once every few months. If the problem was not solved this time and Byrne and others were not rescued, it would be unknown when the next time would come.
The next moment, the black mist appeared again around Byrne and Chris.
However, it was not the two of them who were teleported away, but the forbidden objects they carried disappeared. The mirror and giant sword carried by Best had been teleported to Lillian by Carl.
Byrne and Chris looked at each other and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although they did not return to their family, the great Lord of the Lost accepted the sacrifice of the forbidden artifact.
"It seems that the great Lord of the Lost has his own arrangements!" Byrne said seriously.
The Fisher family.
In the basement, Lillian did not call anyone else, but performed a sacrifice immediately, handing over the giant sword and the mirror to the great Lord of the Lost.
"Great Lord of the Lost, they must have been offered by my father and Chris. Please save them from their predicament!"
"Could it be that we haven't done well enough, so you keep giving them trials and tests?"
She lowered her head and fell into deep thought, looking more helpless than ever before.
Here we come!
Then, Carl greedily absorbed the spiritual power. He completely absorbed the spiritual power in the mirror and the giant sword. The very pleasant feeling of happiness was transmitted to every part of his soul, but he did not feel any signs of loosening of his fifth seal.
Obviously, the further one progresses, the more spiritual power will be needed. He has already accepted this fact.
Byrne and Chris didn't wait long before the thick white fog dissipated.
Finally, Byrne felt a new power emerging, no, not just one, but two!
Green and gray lights appeared in his eyes, and he gained new rune power!
Carl not only replaced the power of the meteorite, but also extracted the power of the green emerald sword and the hand of aging, and handed the authority to Byrne.
Byrne's Stairway to the Gods is the path of knowledge. The extraordinary people on this path really lack stable attack power, and the emerald sword wind of the giant sword is as powerful as a meteorite, and it can attack multiple times, and the attack speed is faster, so it is much better.
With Byrne's current spiritual power, he can release sword energy twelve times in a battle, and the power of each sword energy is equivalent to that of half a meteorite, but the attack speed is much faster.
As for the ability of the "Hand of Aging", it is extremely powerful. It is an extraordinary power that can deprive people of their lifespan through contact. It is undoubtedly a rune power that is very suitable for combining with the power of "space type".
As long as Byrne teleports, he can achieve unimaginable results at close range through the "Hand of Aging".
Theoretically, even the legendary Black Iron Duke in the hearts of the Syat people would not dare to withstand Byrne's attack!
Byrne took a deep breath, feeling deeply moved.
Everything the Fisher family has is given by Him, and the family should give back as much as possible.
He looked at Chris and said, "Speaking of which, do you find it strange that our Lord did not let us return to the Fisher family?"
"I think this may be a trial, a test, and He wants us to rely on our own strength and wisdom to get out of trouble!"
Byrne was thinking deeply, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
"In fact, I thought of one thing. No matter how high the standard of the priests of the Silent Word Cult is, their strength is at most at the level of a monarch. There is no way that a transcendent of that level can defeat the Skeleton Dragon just now."
"In that case, I think the final stage of the Road of the Dead is not a test of strength, but wisdom."
Byrne increasingly understood that the first challenge of the Road of the Dead was patience. To become a priest, one must be able to wait in the canyon for the thick white fog that appeared once every few months.
The second level tests your ability to maintain a calm state of mind and not let your mind wander on the Road of the Dead.
As for the last level, it tests...wisdom!
The Road of the Dead where bad things happen only because of thoughts.
I see.
He took a deep breath and had the exact answer to the level in his mind.
Byrne nodded slowly, stared at Chris and said, "I understand. Let's go to the Road of the Dead again as soon as possible. I don't know how long this white mist can last."
When they finally came back, they saw the elegant Aldridge looking at the two of them and said calmly: "I have figured out a way to pass the last level."
Byrne was slightly stunned, and immediately said, "I thought of that, too."
So the two of them looked at each other and nodded slightly, realizing that the other person was thinking the same thing as they were.
At this moment, they suddenly discovered that the thick white fog around them was gradually dissipating, so they did not hesitate to remain silent and head towards the wall again.
Finally, they came to the Road of the Dead again.
They walked again through the nearly endless sea of white flowers.
Finally, they saw the white skeleton dragon again, and the white jade sword in its hand, and there was still a terrifying sense of oppression!
Even the power possessed by a powerful monarch is nothing in front of that sword!
Aldridge and Byrne looked at each other again, nodded together, and started to think about it in their minds.
After a few breaths, two terrifying monsters suddenly fell from the sky!
One was like a giant black ape, with muscles bulging all over its body like rocks, and the other monster was a seven-headed serpent monster, extremely huge in size, with a body that was hundreds of meters long from head to tail!
Success!
In Byrne and Aldrich's imagination, they hated humans very much, but they hated dragons and dead monsters even more, so both monsters attacked the Skeleton Dragon at the first opportunity!
In the silent world, the three monsters fought madly. The skeleton dragon holding a big sword was suppressed, but it could not be killed no matter what, and all its "injuries" would recover automatically.
Several people took the opportunity to go to the door. Chris turned back at the last moment, calmly looked at the white jade sword held by the skeleton dragon, and fell into deep thought.
It’s not the right time yet, he will come here again in the future to take the sword away.
Several people entered the door together and left the Road of the Dead. The next moment, they all felt dizzy, as if everything around them was collapsing and reconstructing.
Byrne felt as if everything he perceived had disappeared.
