In the early stages, the Great Swordsman was almost invincible if they didn't encounter the other two bug-like professions. Not only did they have powerful attack power, but they also wore leather armor, had extremely fast mobility, and even had strong damage immunity. They were the only special profession that could have Legendary abilities at level five.
"Legendary Toughness!" Using their own willpower as the source, they formed a special energy barrier on the surface of their body that could resist all types of damage. The ability to resist damage was mainly related to their own willpower, and secondary to their physical attributes.
This Legendary ability was the common Legendary skill of all melee physical professions, but even pure Warrior professions had to reach level 15 before they could automatically comprehend this ability. Rogue and assassination professions could even only learn this Legendary skill at level 20. Therefore, in the beginning, Great Swordsmen were almost invincible in one-on-one battles of the same level. They themselves had extremely strong attack power, fast mobility, and even the most practical defensive skills from the beginning.
The old man cut the white-robed Priest of the Church of Life in half with one sword and turned to look at the other enemies. At this time, Uther, who had leaped high, also landed in front of an enemy.
When Leaping Slash landed on the ground, it would create a powerful shockwave. Depending on the level of the Cleric, it would create a powerful shockwave in the surroundings. However, because these white-clothed Clerics were floating two meters above the ground, the shockwave would spread out like ripples on the ground. It would have no effect on airborne enemies. However, Uther's Leap Slash was not used to attack the enemy with shockwaves, but to use this skill to quickly approach the enemy. He didn't know the Warrior's divine skill, Charge. Although Leap Slash was slower, it was still much faster than running on two legs.
It was just that in battle, being slow was being slow. He leaped and landed in front of a white-robed priest. Amidst the strong shock wave, the greatsword slashed at the enemy with a sharp whistling wind. However, this was about a second too late. The white-robed priest was ready. He not only had a magic shield on him, but he also had a magic shield on him. Furthermore, his entire body floated backwards.
Although Uther's sword struck the Priest's Magic Shield and successfully shattered it, the white-robed Priest took the opportunity to float backwards. At the same time, his hands kept making hand gestures … In the minds of many players, almost all spellcasters had a magic wand, but this was actually not true. In reality, only a small number of spellcasters would wear a magic wand. The use of a magic wand was to increase the speed of chanting, but the effect was not very obvious. It was only cost-effective to use a wand for large-scale spells that required a long time to chant. In a face-to-face battle, silent spells and hand gestures were the mainstream because of the faster casting speed.
As the Priest floated backwards, he put his hands together and kept making hand gestures. Soon, a few spots of magic light appeared in front of him. But his movements stopped there. Because his attack posture was too big, Uther was still in a stiff state of withdrawal. To put it simply, it was a period of weakness during the end of the move. There was no way for him to perform any actions. Logically speaking, he should be in danger at this time, but he was not worried at all.
A black shadow emerged from behind him and appeared at an extremely fast speed in front of the white-robed Priest who was using hand gestures. Then, it shrank back into the shadow behind Uther. This time, it only took about 0.5 seconds. The white-robed Priest had fallen from the sky at this time.
There was a little blood stain on the left side of the Priest's heart. It was slowly expanding. He lay flat on the ground, his eyes staring blankly into the sky. He was gradually losing his spirit.
The black shadow behind Uther was naturally the castellan's wife. After becoming a Lesser Knight, her strength had also greatly increased. Only three people in the field could clearly see her movements. They were the old Great Swordsman, Katerina, who was good at speed and assassination, and Liang Lidong.
Katerina was confused. Uther's sudden increase in power was already strange, but now that even the mayor's wife's power had increased by leaps and bounds, it didn't seem right. Also, the way the mayor's wife attacked just now seemed to be the Hitman's special ability, Shadowstrike. Katerina was confused.
Even Katerina herself had not mastered this ability, so she did not understand why Sophia could use it.
However, Liang Lidong knew that the ability that Sophia used was not the Assassin's Shadowstrike, but the Succubus's racial ability, Shadow Walk. She could turn into a shadow and attack the enemy at an extremely fast speed. It looked very similar to Shadowstrike, but there was a big difference. Shadowstrike's attack range was limited, and it could be used in a straight line. However, Shadow Walk was different. It was a special movement skill that allowed the user to hide their body in the real world of shadows. They would not be affected by physical attacks, and they could also change direction. Whether it was chasing or escaping, it was a very practical ability.
Seeing this, Liang Lidong knew that after becoming a second-class knight, Sophia had reached the basic attribute requirements and could now use the racial specialty of succubus because of the attribute correction bonus.
After Sophia turned into a shadow, no one could see her real face, but Liang Lidong could. The Cloud Dragon's blue eyes could break through all illusions. He saw Sophia closely following behind Uther. After killing an enemy, she returned to Uther's back and turned her head to look at Liang Lidong. Seeing that Liang Lidong was staring at her, she seemed to be startled and immediately turned her head away, not daring to look at him again.
Because of the Mist Riding spell, the six low-level priests didn't have much of a field of vision. They could only see about 20 meters in front of them. Not only could they not help each other, but they would also be in a mess when the enemy attacked.
But Mark was different. He had the highest level among them, level 10, while Liang Lidong was only level 5. Because of the level difference, the Mist Riding spell did not have much effect on him. Seeing that two people had died in the beginning, Mark was furious. His wrinkled face was full of blue veins, which made him look extremely horrible.
"You bastards, wait for me …"
Before he could finish speaking, the three arrows flew in front of him. After being blocked by a strange force, he turned his gaze to Fatty Gavin. After all, he was the largest of all the people present, so he was the most obvious target.
Although the divine and magic systems were both spells, they operated in different directions. Priests borrowed the power of gods, so they did not need to gather magic elements in advance. Most of their divine spells could be cast instantly.
Mark pointed at Gavin, and many green balls of light appeared beside him. These balls of light immediately smashed towards Gavin, and the green balls of light were still being produced.
The trajectory of the light balls was very fast, and Fatty Gavin's body was too heavy for him to move quickly. He turned his body to escape, but it was too late. Just as he was about to be hit, Liang Lidong, who was standing not far from him, threw a scroll.
The scroll turned into a green light shield in front of Fatty, blocking the light balls. But soon cracks appeared on the light shield, and it shattered in the next second, turning into bits of magic elements and disappearing. Countless green light balls smashed on the ground. They exploded with a loud boom, raising a large amount of dust.
Fatty, who had just escaped the attack under the protection of the light shield, turned his head and gave Liang Lidong a grateful expression.
Seeing that his prey had escaped, Mark had nowhere to vent his anger, so he set his target on Liang Lidong. The light balls around him increased in number. Just as he was about to shoot, Barbara's next spell was finished.
Six fiery arrows shot towards Mark. He had no choice but to stop his spell and gather all the light balls together to form a green light shield. The six flaming arrows hit the light shield and caused a violent explosion. Although Barbara was only level 7, fire mages were worthy of being called the profession with the most explosive power among all spellcasters. The explosion of the six flaming arrows sent Mark flying several meters back. Not only did the light shield shatter, but the front of his body was clearly blackened.
"Damn it!"
Mark shouted angrily. He knew that Barbara was the most dangerous person. Just as he was about to kill the little girl, four more arrows flew over from different directions. He had no choice but to stop his plan and immediately cast an Arrow Defense Barrier.
After the four arrows were blocked, four screams came from the side. The screams were almost synchronized. When he looked around, his hair and beard immediately stood on end. He was both shocked and angry. That was because at this moment, the old great swordsman had killed another priest. Katerina had ambushed and killed another priest. The other two priests had been killed by the other followers.
The attackers were all elites, and with the help of Mist Riding, it wasn't surprising that they could achieve such results.
Mark, however, couldn't accept it. He shouted, "Good, good! How dare you treat the people of the Church of Life like this. In that case, there's no need for me to be polite with you. Everyone, reveal yourselves! "
As soon as he said that, the chopped corpses emitted black, and they soon turned into six huge human-faced spiders.
Because the human-faced spiders didn't rely on light to sense enemies, Mist Riding was ineffective against them. Mark laughed out loud. "Watch, this is the Church of Life's —"
But before he could finish his words, he was slapped in the face. Barbara had blasted four human-faced spiders to death with a large fireball, while Liang Lidong had thrown out four large fireball scrolls at the same time … The spiders that had just turned into spiders didn't even have the time to move or show any expression before they were immediately turned into flying ash amidst the sounds of several intense explosions!
Since he knew that they might become human-faced spiders, how could Liang Lidong not prepare?
Seeing that the situation wasn't good, Mark was about to escape. No matter how arrogant he was, he didn't dare to fight so many professionals at once. Besides, his Causality Divine Spell was still on cooldown.
But Liang Lidong was waiting for this moment. As soon as Mark turned around, Liang Lidong threw out three more scrolls, one of which was' Flight Forbidden '. Because Mark had used Causality Divine Spell to make himself float, although he wouldn't be affected too much, his figure was still fixed.
This was the effect Liang Lidong wanted. The other two scrolls turned into huge spider webs and directly caught Mark's whole body in the air.
As soon as Mark fell to the ground, he pulled on the spider webs to get up, but at this time, the Great Swordsman had already appeared in front of him. The seemingly weak old Great Swordsman looked at Mark with a sad expression, and then without hesitation, he swung his great sword in his hand, cutting Mark in two at the waist.
People who were cut at the waist wouldn't die immediately. Those who had a strong will could even speak. At this time, Mark fell to the ground, his body had begun to turn into a spider. At the same time, he smiled bitterly and said in a resentful voice: "I sacrifice my soul to curse you. You will immediately be pulled into the world of my god and become the food of my god's people. Your soul will be entangled in the giant web, suffering the pain of being poisoned, never to escape …"
"Oh no, it's Soul Sacrifice Divine Spell, stop him!"
Shouted the experienced Liang Lidong. He really didn't expect that Mark would rather lose his soul to use this disgusting evil spell.
This time, the old Great Swordsman directly stabbed his great sword into Mark's mouth, but it was still too late … A strange magic field came from the sky. It was a black magic array with a radius of at least 10 kilometers. Every line on the magic array was pure black, as if it could attract people's souls.
In the center of the magic array, there was a big black spider looming. The upper body of this spider was a beautiful woman, and the lower body was eight long legs with barbs. It looked very disgusting.
Queen of Spiders Rose!
The substantial mental pressure pressed on everyone like an enormous mountain. Except for Liang Lidong, everybody was forced to squat on the ground. It was difficult for them to even raise their heads. The weaker ones were directly lying on the ground.
In fact, Liang Lidong didn't feel any pressure at all.
Everybody in Winterwind saw the anomaly in the sky. They all prostrated on the ground and cried loudly, praying for the blessing of their god and the forgiveness of the unknown god in the sky.
Everybody thought that a god had descended, including the Great Swordsman and the city lord's husband and wife. But Liang Lidong knew that the Goddess Rose in the sky was only a magic image, and it was impossible for gods to descend to this world. It was difficult for them to even observe the world. Most of the time, they had to understand the world through the minds of their believers.
The huge black magic array emitted dazzling light and enveloped everybody. Nobody else had the strength to resist, but Liang Lidong didn't just wait for death. He threw out all the offensive magic scrolls in his spatial backpack, and the colorful offensive magic attacked the core of the black magic array, which was the image of Goddess Rose.
The light of the black magic array became brighter and brighter. Because he used so many magic scrolls at the same time, Liang Lidong's nose began to bleed, and his mind was greatly affected. But under the admiring gazes of others, he still kept attacking the magic array in the sky with magic scrolls.
Finally, under the constant magic attack, the statue of Goddess Rose appeared to be cracking slightly, and then everyone was sucked in by the black magic circle and disappeared into a black nothingness
