336 stacking and exploding
The moment they realized that the succubus was casting a spell, both priest branch and Matthew’s faces turned pale.
the old man who had been called out for a talk had a gloomy expression. he almost wanted to close his eyes. he couldn’t bear to watch the cruel scene that was about to happen, even if he himself was also swept up in it.
he knew that the church he had lived in for many years would be shamed today!
no one would have thought that this succubus, who had a challenge level of only 7, would be able to level up to a level 13 cleric on top of her original 6 health dice.
He had reached the level where he could cast the seven-circle divine spell blasphemy!
the power of this spell was completely determined by the level of the caster and the number of dice (HD) of the target.
It was only effective against non-evil creatures, and if the life dice exceeded the caster’s level, it would be completely ineffective.
But if they were equal and didn’t pass the spell resistance test, they would be stunned for at least one round.
as the level gap widened, the power of the negative effects would gradually increase, such as paralysis, weakness, and other states overlapping.
if the difference was more than 10 levels, the target would be directly cursed to death by the death effect, and there was no need to be immune!
this was also one of the few instant-death spells that didn’t need to be exempted and could only be resisted with magic resistance.
In an instant, all the apprentice priests who were still commoners with only one life die heard the mysterious curse sound of blasphemy.
Their brains immediately turned into a mush that seemed to be boiling, and then they all bled from their seven orifices.
The dozens of players who had gathered for the training with great difficulty sat quietly in their seats in that instant. Their eyes turned white, and they could not close their eyes as they looked at the podium in front of them.
He died peacefully.
[ adventurer zhongxia, you are affected by blasphemy. Your 5HD is more than 10 levels away from succubus spellcaster. You are immune to dizziness, weakness, and paralysis, as well as being affected by the death effect. ]
[ adventurer zhongxia, you have passed the immunity to dizziness (1 round) and paralysis (1-10 minutes). [ weakness immunity failed, strength will be reduced by 6 (range 2-12), last for 4 rounds (range 2-8). ]
[ adventurer zhongxia, you are immune to blasphemy’s instant death effect due to the effect of Death Ward. ]
There were three notifications in a row, and even Zhao Xu’s heart started to waver.
at the same time, his strength dropped to 2 points, which was lower than the average 3 points of a monkey.
If it wasn’t for his luck, he would’ve been killed by the spell.
But no one would have guessed that even if Zhao Xu was already at 5HD, he would still be included in the instant death effect.
This meant that the succubus was either a level 15 priest or had items that could increase the level of the caster, such as Zhao Xu’s ” aen stone.
Fortunately, priest blanch had a premonition just now, so he had cast a Death Ward on Zhao Xu in advance, allowing him to avoid this disaster.
Otherwise, he might have become the first unlucky person to die under an instant-death spell with a piece of the Grim Reaper’s divine persona.
after this spell was cast, zhao xu immediately scanned the entire area.
To his surprise, even the sixth-circle priest branch was ” stunned ” for a round. He could only stand unsteadily and was no longer able to cast spells.
As for Matthew and the old priest, they were even more paralyzed and fell from the sky. The old priest was only Level 5, so he died on the spot.
When Zhao Xu faced the pit fiend in the past, he knew that the pit fiend had the spell-like ability blasphemy, so he used the level 8 divine spell, advanced spell immunity, to nullify the corresponding spell.
Now, they were facing a succubus priest of unknown level, yet they were completely caught off guard.
This was the scariness of a succubus with a challenge level of over 20 after stacking more than 10 priest levels.
The class resources that the players could use would only be more terrifying if they were used by monsters and other characters in Arthur.
This made it so that only Zhao Xu, who only had 2 points of strength left and was only a level 5 player, was still standing.
The succubus was flapping her wings and looking down at everyone from the sky. When she saw that Zhao Xu hadn’t fallen, she had an interesting expression on her face.
succubi with only six life dice could only be considered above-average in the abyss. even if they killed adventurers in the prime material plane, they mostly relied on their shapeshifting ability and sneak attacks.
Only a succubus like it, who was a level 10 priest, could be so confident and dare to fight with its own strength.
However, it knew very well that Zhao Xu, who was in front of it, was already in its grasp.
the only one that was a little threatening was branch, who was stunned for six seconds, which was enough for him to kill zhao xu.
however, zhao xu happened to be looking at the dead cleric apprentices in front of him.
His eyes were filled with sorrow, as if he had recalled the memories of his previous life.
At that time, he could only wave the giant sword in his hand and suddenly vent his anger as he looked at the town that was already scorched.
in this life, he would not let the tragedy repeat itself.
zhao xu let out a soft sigh. then he looked at the succubus with a determined gaze and said, ” “let’s go back,” he said.
in an instant, the hourglass with the golden base on zhao xu’s chest trembled violently. the sand at the bottom of the hourglass immediately flowed up and back into the top of the bottle.
The second hand of the clock in the corner also moved back six squares with a tick.
In an instant, all the trainee priests ‘souls that had left their bodies and were ready to be resurrected were forcibly pulled back from the’ Palace of life creation’. Their originally bloody faces were now clean.
whether it was the old priest who had fallen to the ground and the paralyzed priest matthew, they all returned to their original positions.
zhao xu’s time backtrack talisman allowed the time in the classroom to go back to the first six seconds.
even though they weren’t affected in the outside world, everyone present, from branch to the players, including the succubus, was shocked by what they saw.
The succubus didn’t dare to act rashly before she figured out the reason.
“time reversal?”
The old priest was standing behind Zhao Xu and talking to himself. His eyes were wide open.
If it wasn’t for the fact that he couldn’t sense any ripples of the goddess ‘divine power from Zhao Xu, he would have knelt down on the spot and started crying out for God’s grace.
He knew that even the ninth-circle ‘wish’ or ‘miracle’ might not be able to achieve the current feat.
the players who had been resurrected were even more shocked.
although they knew nothing after they died, there was one thing they were sure of. they had been cursed to death when they heard the strange voice of the pitch-black monster.
And then they resurrected on the spot?
didn’t they say that arthur needed a lifestone or even a 5-circle divine spell to be resurrected?
and that wasn’t a group resurrection spell!
Since they chose the path of priests, they knew that Arthur only had five lives. With the resurrection spell, they knew how noble their existences would be and how much they could gain in the game.
but at this moment, no matter how much fantasy they had, they could only give in to the reality that was playing out at this moment.
everyone could only watch in a daze as zhao xu displayed his power. on one hand, they were lamenting how small they were, but on the other hand, they were also amazed by the power of these high-level priests.
Zheng xinyun was also staring deeply at Zhao Xu, who was wearing a black priest robe, and her eyes revealed a thoughtful look.
Zhao Xu’s mind was the clearest among everyone present, and he immediately shouted, ” “It’s not over yet, don’t let your guard down.” it reminded branch that he had to react immediately.
this was because zhao xu knew very well that this time backtrack talisman of his was a 9th-circle psychic power.
It wasn’t the real “time backtrack,” so the time in the outside world would still flow normally, and the memories of the people who were backtracked would still exist.
thus, he couldn’t fool the succubus for long. having come into contact with the divine power of the abyss, she would eventually realize that this wasn’t the true “time divine power.”
Just as expected, the succubus flapped its wings again and started charging towards Zhao Xu.
matthew, who was flying in the air, was swept by the succubus. he was also desperately trying to catch up to her.
branch was worried about the power of the blasphemy and was casting a spell to protect the apprentices.
Seeing this scene, the old her was also very conflicted. She was afraid that she would give up the current spell, and the result would be that the succubus would continue to kill the trainee priest with ” blasphemy, ” which would lead to a scandal.
but if she didn’t choose to protect zhao xu, he would be exposed to danger.
in the end, blanch could only grit his teeth and continue with his current spell.
rose cross was something he had to sacrifice himself in the first place.
every member had to bear the responsibility of their own fate. when they needed to die, they could only die without hesitation.
among the cleric apprentices in the classroom, a few of them had quick reactions and were brave enough to throw books or hard objects. however, their accuracy and the power of the objects they threw had no effect on the succubus.
The others could only look worriedly at their target, Zhao Xu. In that split second, they didn’t even have the time to say anything. zheng xinyun was also praying with all her might, hoping that the priest who had saved them would be able to survive.
They were witnesses to Arthur’s history, but because of their own powerlessness, they could only ” witness ” it.
but zhao xu just looked at the succubus calmly.
he gently raised the legendary necromancer staff that he had been hiding in the beginning and pointed it at the succubus priest who was flying over to kill him.
“Finger of Death.”
“Potential point burst!”
