Chapter 87: Chapter 87: SS-Rank Wrath of the Gods Talent and Attribute Fusion



"You are unforgivable!" John suddenly struck with Deadly Strike and Armor Piercing simultaneously.

"No..." Dine's roar of defiance was cut short, powerless to stop the attack.

-81022

-86210

Two critical hits, and Dine's health was wiped out entirely. His eyes widened in shock, locked onto John as he collapsed lifelessly into a pool of blood.

A series of notifications flashed before John's eyes.

[You have killed the Fifth-Tier warrior Dine, earning 29,440 experience points.]

[Plunder talent activated, Constitution +50, Strength +100.]

[Congratulations! You have killed 20 Fifth-Tier Rare or higher bosses. Your Wrath of the Gods talent has been upgraded to SS-Rank, granting 80% skill cooldown reduction.]

[Next Upgrade Condition: Kill 50 Sixth-Tier Epic or higher bosses to upgrade Wrath of the Gods to SSS-Rank.]

At last, John's Wrath of the Gods talent had reached SS-Rank, pushing his cooldown reduction to 80% and significantly boosting his power.

The conditions for the next upgrade required him to defeat fifty Sixth-Tier Epic bosses.

This is a daunting task considering he still struggled with Fifth-Tier Epic bosses.

However, with an 80% skill cooldown reduction, John's current abilities were already formidable, more than sufficient for now.

His attention was drawn to the loot dropped by Dine.

Dine's flexible sword lay on the ground-it turned out to be a Fourth-Tier Legendary-quality weapon.

While the tier had decreased, the quality had jumped up two levels.

The only downside was that it required a warrior class to wield.

And John wasn't particularly fond of flexible swords.

He remembered that Chris, the old patriarch of the Blues Family, used a flexible sword as his weapon in real life. Perhaps he could save it for him.

John inspected the rest of the loot.

There were 100 skill stones, 100 equipment enhancement stones, and 100 equipment embedding stones.

Additionally, he found a rare Basic Talent Upgrade Stone, which could raise any talent below A- Rank by one level.

Since John's Spell Combo talent had already been upgraded to S-Rank, the Basic Talent Upgrade Stone wouldn't work on it.

He had two other talents below S-Rank: A B-Rank physical damage talent and a B-Rank Dual Mastery talent.

These talents increased his base physical damage by 50% and added 50% magic damage to his attacks, respectively.

Given that his strength attribute was higher, upgrading his physical damage talent would provide a more significant boost.

John decisively chose to upgrade the B-Rank physical damage talent.

[You have used a Talent Upgrade Stone. Your Physical Damage talent has been upgraded to A-Rank.]

[Physical Damage Talent: A-Rank, increases base physical damage by 60%.]

"It looks like I'll need to choose another physical class," John muttered to himself. His physical damage had increased yet again, and with an Origin Stone in hand, adding another physical class would give him access to more physical attack skills.

However, he wasn't in a rush. The next class he chose couldn't be weaker than his Wrath of the Gods Mage or Phantom Assassin; otherwise, it would be a waste.

Meanwhile, the battle on the other side had concluded. The Dark Humans army had been slaughtered by the beasts, and Green Moon had been reduced to ruins, completely erased from existence.

The players watching from a distance were stunned, once again deeply impressed by Godslayer's overwhelming power.

John didn't bother with those onlookers-they were merely spectators, not displaying any hostility.

"Godslayer!" A furious shout echoed as Judy landed in front of John, her aura brimming with killing intent.

Whoosh!

The wind howled as Avis descended, positioning himself protectively in front of John, his eyes fixed warily on Judy.

"Stop!" Ada hurried over, quickly intervening to prevent a possible clash. She was genuinely worried that the situation might escalate into a full-blown fight.

Judy's hostility subsided slightly, but she still glared at John with cold, seething eyes. "You dared to humiliate my master-I won't let you get away with it."

John completely ignored Judy, stepping past her to approach Ada. He gently took her delicate

hand and asked softly, "Are you settling in okay?"

Ada's face flushed with color as she glanced at him with a mix of shyness and reproach, remaining silent.

"Don't worry," Armstrong interjected confidently. "As long as my brother-in-law is with us

in the Blues Family, nothing will happen."

The Blues Family had long been secluded from the outside world, making it nearly impossible

for external forces to infiltrate.

The Mike White Family would have a hard time getting to John in the real world.

"John, you've been online for too long. You should log off and rest for a while," Sini urged,

her expression filled with concern as she noticed how exhausted John looked.

"Yeah," Tracy quickly agreed, nodding in support.

Since Flame City had been established, John hadn't logged off once. He had been in the world

of Gods for a full week.

"It's okay, I still have a few things to take care of," John replied with a smile. "Let's head to

the council chamber."

He then turned to Sini and Tracy. "You two should come along as well." Once they were all in the council chamber, Armstrong couldn't contain his excitement. "Brother-in-law, are you going to help us establish a city?"

John nodded and asked, "How have the Blues Family disciples been progressing in terms of

levels?"

Armstrong's enthusiasm dimmed as he answered, "Only a little over a hundred have reached the third tier. It's really tough to level up after reaching the second tier."

"Boss, I've got over five hundred soldiers who've reached the third tier. They should be able

to help out," Ritchie chimed in.

During the last defense of the city, the Flame Legion had gained a lot of experience points,

advancing faster than the disciples of the Blues Family.

John nodded. He knew that the players weren't the main force in defending against the

monster tide; it was the beasts he relied on.

He made a decisive call: "Tomorrow, the Blues Family will establish their city in the Land of

Elves within the Eternal Forest. I'll send you the coordinates shortly."

Sini couldn't help but voice her concern. "John, isn't that too dangerous?"

Tracy shared her worry.

Both women had spent time in the Land of Elves with John, and they knew it was home to

monsters above level 60 and an army of Orcs-far more treacherous than the Dark Forest.

But John had already made up his mind. "As long as we hold the chokepoints in the Land of

Elves, we'll be fine. Plus, with the beast army on our side, we'll be able to withstand the

monster tide."

"Brother-in-law, I'll go inform the family members," Armstrong said, trusting John's judgment and ready to leave.

"Not so fast," John stopped Armstrong, pulling out four Attribute Fusion Stones and handing

them to the group. "Refine these. They'll allow you to fuse your attributes from the world of Gods into reality."

"What?!" Ritchie exclaimed, staring at the stone in his hand and then back at John in disbelief.

"Boss, are you serious? We can actually merge our attributes from Gods into the real world?" John nodded. "You should have heard some inside information about this."

Gulp!

Ritchie swallowed hard. He knew that the world of Gods wasn't just a game but a real world.

However, the idea that the abilities gained there could be brought back into reality was beyond belief.

If this got out, it would cause a massive upheaval.

"I get it now. Brother-in-law, you're not an Ancient Martial Artist; you're this powerful

because you've merged your Gods attributes with reality!" Armstrong blurted out, looking at John in awe before eagerly beginning to refine the Attribute Fusion Stone. Compared to Ritchie and Armstrong's reactions, Sini and Tracy were much calmer. Sini had long known about the possibility of merging Gods attributes with reality, and thanks

to her relationship with John, she had already partially merged some of her attributes, though

not completely. As for Tracy, she was too pure-hearted to ponder the broader implications. She simply trusted John and obediently began refining the attribute stone.
