285 chapter 284-the heavens fall and the earth split
and why did this statue appear here?
at first, zhao xu had experienced the first-person perspective of the god of slaughter, and from the results, most of his actions had been on point.
Even Edmund was no better than this when he was a mortal.
he had thought that he would gain something.
who would have thought that there would be three divine patterns of “extraordinary divine power “? even the goddess of magic had not given him this.
even if the gods wanted to achieve this, they would have to pay a high price.
otherwise, any legendary lich at the legendary-mage level would be permanently controlled by the lord of the undead.
at this moment, the statue that had been through the vicissitudes of time along with the land of the sleeping had become dusty.
zhao xu looked up and saw that the face of the god of slaughter, edmund, was already a little blurry.
zhao xu didn’t know why he couldn’t see a single undead creature here.
However, he was sure that after the gift, the statue would not have much divine power left.
After Lux heard his question, she looked at the statue just like Zhao Xu did. master, according to your experience and some rumors, I’m afraid that the ‘God of Slaughter’ obtained the Godhead of the former god of death, Nairo, here.
there were many rumors about the God of Slaughter after he died, but it was true that his godhood was not inherited by other gods. Otherwise, with the godhood of the former god of death, Nairo, and the part of the God of Slaughter’s godhood, there would have been a new god of death after so many years.
arthur didn’t love or hate for no reason.
during this period of time, zhao xu had slowly come to know that he had the ability to break out of this situation, so the goddess of magic had decided to invest in him in exchange for some help in the future.
It was just like how he had promised to exchange for a part of fate’s divinity from the Molin stone tablet.
All these years, sisylvana was the only one who wasn’t tricked by the three gifts from the Molin’s stone tablet. Instead, the ” Molin’s stone tablet ” had actually invested in her.
that was why zhao xu had always respected this goddess who could see through the river of fate.
Zhao Xu was usually a level 1 cleric, so he didn’t have to do much. But when it came to the blessings of the gods, the other party would always make it convenient for him.
Other people would study hard in religious texts and analyze the examples of the goddess ‘miracles, but Zhao Xu had always been able to get past them easily.
But what about the ” slaughter God ” in front of him?
the other party had already died long ago. as the successor of the god of death’s divinity, he had also inherited this divinity’s curse of “being unable to resurrect.”
Even if there was still some divine power left in this statue, it was more or less because of the land of the sleepers. It could even be deduced from the fact that the other party’s three great divine patterns were abilities of undead creatures.
zhao xu had been a public security officer in his previous life, so he knew that receiving gifts wasn’t that scary. in fact, he had received quite a few of them before.
However, what terrified him was that he didn’t know the ins and outs of this ‘gift’.
receiving a gift without understanding the reason might be a way to court death.
“Master, it’s strange for you to say that.” lacus was also thinking.
To her, it was because she had seen through the fog of fate that she had decided to side with Zhao Xu.
the so-called divine weapon choosing its master was mostly the same.
later on, she saw that even though zhao xu was just a normal human, in terms of talent, compared to her previous owners, it could only be said that the double elites combined with their potential points could be said to be equal.
but zhao xu’s luck made her secretly shocked, but she was also completely convinced that he was her master.
“Master, or should I call it ‘resonance’?” Lacus recalled. for some existences with residual divine power, if they are too similar to the gods, they will resonate. maybe this statue felt something similar between you and that ‘god of slaughter’ edmund, and your reaction to the test was similar to his.”
at this point, lacus was also a little hesitant. no matter how she looked at it, the ” edmund ” who was once a bitter enemy had nothing to do with the ” zhongxia ” who was now having a smooth-sailing life.
all of a sudden, she had an idea. ” i get it. maybe master is just like that god of yours, having heaven-defying luck, just like how you all have the opportunity to come into contact with the godhead of this ‘death god’. ”
However, after hearing the analysis, Zhao Xu felt a little depressed. He stared at the statue of the god of Slaughter in front of him.
At this moment, he thought back to Zhao Xu’s tragic past. It could be said that his family had been destroyed, but it was actually a reflection of Zhao Xu’s past life.
it was just that he didn’t have the same luck as the other party at that time.
And that Edmund eventually became the God of Slaughter and not the God of revenge, more or less, it also laid the foreshadowing for the tragedy of the final turning point of his life.
ever since zhao xu had entered the game, he had never thought about what he had experienced in his previous life.
However, now that he had encountered this divine power, if he could successfully obtain the divinity, then when his combat power was at Level 6-9, he would have to go and meet the dark Dragon who had slaughtered his family in his previous life.
Just separated by a cliff, the land of the sleepers was filled with a somber, deathly, and depressing atmosphere. The entire land was covered in dried yellow soil, and not a single blade of grass grew.
On Zhao Xu’s side, even though the God of Slaughter was right in front of him, the ground was still covered in green.
At this moment, he turned around and looked at the empty sky in front of the cliff. As the game time progressed, his winter vacation was approaching.
Zhao Xu also wanted to meet the family he had lost in his previous life.
“let’s go, lacus.” suddenly, zhao xu’s tone of voice became stern, and it was no longer as gentle and soft as it had been when he spoke to her.
it caught lacus off guard, but she knew that she just had to keep quiet.
it was as if the three divine runes could sense the flames of revenge burning in zhao xu’s heart, and they also unleashed powerful energy waves at this moment. even the statue of god behind zhao xu started to shake.
“undead characteristics.”
zhao xu suddenly activated the power of his sacred sigil, and all the negative energy in the world suddenly gathered around zhao xu. this extreme extraction caused the entire anta city to sink a little.
although it was slight, it truly existed.
The grass in the area where he had been standing withered and died, as if autumn had come and swept the ground.
the power of the sacred sigil protected zhao xu tightly, allowing his body and the negative energy to co-exist in a magical state.
he was slowly moving toward the ” undead ” status. the status bar of his character card and the status of being immune to undead also appeared one by one.
[ adventurer zhongxia, you have obtained the undead characteristic. ]
It wasn’t until Zhao Xu’s face really started to turn a little pale that the divine power finally stopped.
but there was still a difference between zhao xu and an undead creature. he was still a living creature.
but it was enough for the undead creatures to treat him as one of their own.
he was at the border between life and death.
At this moment, the statue of the god of Slaughter behind Zhao Xu suddenly started moving. It held the giant sword in its hand and swung it down in front of it.
Suddenly, the entire world changed color!
The Army of ghouls, mummies, skeletons, and zombies that had already climbed back to the tunnel all ran in all directions as if they were extremely frightened.
wave after wave, they continued to stomp.
What was even more terrifying was that the statue’s sword carried a huge divine power shock wave and attacked the entire land of the sleeping.
The yellow building, which had been built over countless years, cracked under the sword.
A huge ravine appeared in the entire city as if the sky was falling and the earth was splitting apart. It also alarmed countless undead creatures that were hiding in it and they could only flee in fear.
“sense death.”
zhao xu didn’t seem to care about the change in color in front of him. he didn’t stop at all and immediately activated another divine pattern.
The power of the sacred sigil immediately dissipated and exploded. The knowledge of death and the fragments of fate gathered in Zhao Xu’s eyes at that moment.
Even if he didn’t use up the five chances to observe death again, he could see how the rules of death worked in this world.
zhao xu treasured everything in front of him.
They died of old age and illness.
This was also the first time that Zhao Xu was using this sort of rule power that involved the most basic theory of the world.
[ adventurer zhongxia, your knowledge (religion) has been raised to level 8 (upper limit) ]
at this time, the god statue that had calmed down tightly held the stone sword in its hand and stabbed forward.
instantly, the entire land of the sleeping exploded with a deafening sound.
The shock wave formed by the sound waves exploded in the middle, causing the ancient Earth buildings that were not affected by the crack to be hit. Cracks appeared on the outer layer.
The peaceful anta city was on the verge of doomsday.
Zhao Xu’s right eye immediately closed.
After that, every time it opened, it represented the consumption of the power of Death Perception.
But just as he closed his eyes, Zhao Xu once again activated his divine power and opened his right eye.
However, his target was not anyone but himself.
suddenly, zhao xu’s own trajectory of fate started to merge with the point of death. it turned into countless concrete images that flashed across zhao xu’s eyes.
He could see the path of his own death.
But this divine power didn’t last for long. As a large amount of information flowed into his right eye, Zhao Xu’s right eye started to tremble as if it couldn’t support such a large amount of divine power, so he closed it tightly again.
After knowing everything, Zhao Xu didn’t hesitate at all. He ran straight ahead with large strides, and when he got close to the cliff, he suddenly jumped.
“Feather drop!”
At the same time, more than a dozen figures flew up into the sky. They were all legendary undead creatures. Although they weren’t afraid, they were deeply puzzled by this scene.
in contrast, zhao xu landed on the ground and walked with his back to her.
