The Chosen One never imagined that someone as noble as the Mage would be so uncivilized, and stood there dumbfounded for a moment.
When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy tires out, we harass them.
The tactics left by our ancestors were indeed effective. Liu Nian looked at the burly man who was dumbfounded with satisfaction.
The evil spirits and poisons are reaping his life; he doesn't have much time left.
While he was still undecided, a second bone wall was erected.
Suddenly he felt a sharp pain. It turned out that a ghoul's fangs had pierced through his armor, and the serrated teeth grazed his skin.
The faint chanting from a distant place, hidden by the bone wall, sent shivers down his spine.
The Chosen One took a deep breath, and the ghouls clinging to him suddenly felt a repulsive force and were thrown off.
He then raised his broadsword high above his head, the red light gathering at the tip, before forcefully slamming it into the ground.
Debris flew everywhere after being struck by the axe, and several cracks spread outwards from the axe as the center of the cracks.
The violent tremors made Liu Nian unsteady on her feet, and the chanting she had just begun was interrupted once again.
The resulting shockwave blew Liu Nian to the edge of the plaza. His cloak accidentally touched the blood wall at the edge and was instantly corroded in a corner.
To make matters worse, the punishment for this spell was even more severe, lasting five seconds longer than last time, and causing Liu Nian to cough up a mouthful of blood.
The bone wall collapsed amidst the tremors, and even more critically, the slowing spell on his body expired at that moment.
Seeing the mage looking like a drowning dog, the Chosen One swung his axe and ran towards Liu Nian.
Seeing the Chosen One rushing towards him, Liu Nian had no choice but to take out the Frost Arrow Scroll.
He deftly tore open the cover, and the scroll transformed into a ball of light the instant it was opened, before condensing into an arrow shape covered in ice.
Looking at the icy arrow floating above his palm, a chill ran through him, making Liu Nian shiver.
Then Liu Nian unleashed his consciousness, pointed in the direction of the Chosen One, and the arrow flew rapidly toward the Chosen One.
Seeing the flying icy arrow, the Chosen One instinctively swung his axe, trying to shatter it.
The instant the axe and arrow made contact, frost instantly formed on the axe and then spread along the axe towards the chosen one's arm.
The Chosen One felt as if his blood was freezing; the armor seemed to have turned into a cold tomb.
Exhaling a breath of hot air, the Chosen One shuddered, shaking off the frost from his body, and then walked stiffly toward Liu Nian opposite him.
With eight seconds left to cast the spell, Liu Nian decisively pulled out his dog whistle and blew it.
As soon as the whistle blew, it disappeared.
Then a summoning circle suddenly appeared on the ground in front of Liu Nian.
The purple magic circle looks like a demonic magic circle.
Just as Liu Nian expected, a three-headed hellhound was summoned from the magic circle.
This three-headed dog was tall and imposing, its adult-sized body giving it an extremely intimidating presence. Its fur was entirely black, without a single blemish. Not to mention its sharp claws and teeth, which inspired fear in all who beheld it.
Information gathering
Looking at the handsome three-headed dog in front of him, Liu Nian used his skill to check it out.
Demon, Cerberus, lv8, attack power 15-20, defense power 5-8, HP 200.
The panel is powerful, but the only drawback is the lack of skills.
The Chosen One was taken aback by the sudden appearance of the three-headed dog.
Upon hearing Liu Nian's command, the hellhound charged toward the chosen one like a phantom.
As the ground shook, the distance between the two decreased.
The Chosen One's expression turned solemn. After regaining his composure, he swung his giant axe at the oncoming hellhound.
The hellhound took the blow head-on, leaving a scar on its head. But upon closer inspection, it became clear that the scar was slowly healing.
Meanwhile, the other two heads of the hellhound bit down hard on the chosen one's armor, producing a teeth-grinding sound as the 15-20 attack power easily broke through the armor's defenses.
With a flick of its head, the hellhound easily tore off a large piece of sheet metal.
His summoned creature had been battling iron for ages without breaking through its defenses, yet it tore off a whole piece with a single blow.
I glanced disdainfully at the keychains; as expected, the best ones are always someone else's kids.
Seeing the two sides locked in a fierce battle, Liu Nian used a slowing technique to create distance and continue summoning the demon child.
The Chosen One, who had already been weakened by the summoned creatures, was now being suppressed by such a powerful hellhound and quickly fell into a disadvantageous position.
If you cut it once, it will bite you three times; you are at a complete disadvantage.
After Liu Nian summoned other creatures, the Chosen One couldn't even close the distance with Liu Nian and was quickly sent back to the embrace of its god by the Cerberus that seized the opportunity.
As expected of the boss guarding the final stage, it dropped a large bag of crowns and three cards after the Chosen One died.
【Galan's Trousers】, 【Tarot Card: Judgment】, 【Repair Tools】
【Galan's Pants】: Defense 3-5, Magic Defense 2-6.
Effect: Increases all resistances by five points.
Note: Aside from being a bit flashy, it has absolutely no flaws!
Repair Tool: 240/240 Durability
The prop card repair tool materialized into a sewing kit, and Liu Nian immediately chose to repair the damaged cloak and bone armor.
After the repair was completed, the repair tool's durability was exhausted, and the item disappeared completely.
Tarot cards are cards, and Judgment is one of the twenty-two Major Arcana.
The moment Liu Nian picked it up, it transformed into a beam of white light and shot into Liu Nian's body.
[Tarot Card Series Activation]
The system's voice sounded.
Effect: Adds one stack to the effect of spells you cast on the enemy.
Effect: Reduces the effect of spells cast on you by one stack.
Liu Nian's character panel suddenly gained a Tarot card buff, and it's permanent!
I happily changed into long pants, and now that I'm fully equipped, Mom isn't afraid I'll get shot anymore.
A portal had been generated in the center of the plaza. After looking at the cards, Liu Nian was about to leave when he was drawn to the shrine behind the Chosen One as he walked through the center of the plaza.
On the flowerbed in the central square stands a statue carved with a mysterious eye, and in the cup in front of it lies a purple crystal quietly.
The shockwave that overturned even the bone wall failed to overturn these stone sculptures.
As if possessed, Liu Nian picked up the crystal and put it in his pocket, then stepped out of the portal.
After another dizzying spin, he appeared on the road that had originally led into the village.
After glancing at the time, I realized that four hours had passed.
As dusk fell, Liu Nian took out his motorcycle from his spatial storage and sped off towards Wushuang City.
A short while later, three pedestrians, all covered in black like Liu Nian, arrived at the village entrance.
The three were horrified to see the now-ineffective protective shield and rushed toward the central square. The Chosen One lay dead on the ground.
The divine messenger was killed, and the whereabouts of the sacred artifact are unknown.
The three of them could hardly believe their eyes when they saw what they were seeing.
"This matter needs to be reported to the High Priest immediately. We must set off back at once." The leading man spoke, the wind blowing up a corner of his hood to reveal a tattoo on his forehead—a tattoo of a mysterious eye.
After confirming that the sacred object was lost, the three left quickly, heading towards the Peerless City not far ahead.
As night fell, Wushuang City was gradually enveloped, like a lost lamb.
