Chapter 217 Berserker Blood LV2
There were enemies blocking the way, but Mo Cheng continued to move forward without changing his expression. A soldier jumped out from the team and fought with the enemy.
This was the arrangement that had been determined before departure. If there were any enemies blocking the road, the team members would deal with them.
Mo Cheng could guess Ichikiel's arrangement in the sinking area. If they stopped every time they encountered an enemy, there would be very little time left when they finally reached Ichikiel.
Therefore, the only way is to divide the troops, soldiers against soldiers, kings against kings. Before facing Ichikiel, Mo Cheng cannot consume too much of his own strength, and at the same time he cannot be blocked. These elites of the law enforcement group and the knights are to help Mo Cheng remove the roadblocks on the road.
While continuing to move forward, Mo Cheng also took the time to collect the rewards he had obtained after completing the previous copy.
The first thing he took was a random advanced equipment. After drawing it, the equipment that appeared in front of him made Mo Cheng's eyes light up.
Vanguard Shield: A powerful shield that allows the bearer to dodge the most deadly attacks.
(Passive: Damage Block
Has a 60% chance to block damage. Melee heroes can block 64 points of damage, and ranged heroes can block 32 points.
+ Health: 250
+ Health Regeneration: 7.0 )
A defensive equipment that improves protection strength. It is also one of the accessories of [Blade of the Abyss] and is one of the must-have equipment for meat tank heroes.
Next was the free choice of basic equipment. Mo Cheng only took a look at the basic equipment and made his choice.
Shoes of speed: Wear a pair of shoes and run faster.
(The movement speed bonuses provided by multiple footwear items do not stack.
+ Movement Speed: 45)
Then there are the skill points gained after upgrading. After they are put into the skill pool, three skills will appear.
[Healing Guard: One of the rituals of the Masked Island. Voodoo spells are often very effective in healing wounds.]
(Summons a healing ward that heals nearby friendly units at a certain percentage of their maximum health. The healing ward can move at a speed of 325.0. Lasts 25.0 seconds.)
[Ice and Fire: The Burning Frost Dragons combine extremely dangerous and opposite auras to spit out dragon breath with destructive power.]
( Jakiro spews ice and fire at the enemies in front of him. The ice breath slows down the enemy, and the fire breath causes continuous damage to the enemy.)
[Berserker's Blood: The reversal power of the void makes your blood full of strong vitality. Your strength and speed will increase as you lose blood.]
(Huskar's pain grants him strength, gaining attack speed, magic resistance, and health regeneration based on his missing health. Health regeneration is a percentage of strength.)
There was no need to think about what to choose. Mo Cheng made his choice as soon as he saw the Berserker's Blood for the first time.
The Berserker's Blood skill was upgraded to level two. The blood in Mo Cheng's body surged. The blood, which was at a temperature higher than that of a normal person, flowed throughout his body driven by his heart. His skin began to ooze a scarlet color.
The team members following Mo Cheng found that the priest walking in front of him had turned red for some reason, and was covered with red mist. Mo Cheng's whole body seemed to be on fire, but when they looked closely, they found that there was nothing except the mist that smelled a little blood.
Margaret said worriedly, "Mo Cheng, you..."
"I'm fine. I just strengthened my strength a little."
Mo Cheng walked to the front without looking back, and added: "Proceed as planned. You will be responsible for dealing with the enemies you encounter next."
…
In the sunken area, located in the open square area in the center, Ichikiel was half-closing his eyes, resting.
This is the largest open area in the sinking zone, and it is also the best starting point for the [Earth Vibrator] according to calculations.
The people around have been driven away. The people in the sinking area have been unable to go out due to various reasons during this period, and the black market cannot be held normally. The slave traders and mages leave first when they see that something is wrong.
Those who are still in the sinking area are just some gangsters who act as gloves for the nobles and collect human body materials for the mages, as well as the poor who are just one step away from selling themselves to the gangsters.
These people were easily driven away by Izekiel's men, and there was not much killing. It was not because they were kind or had compassion, but because the Inquisition's newly developed [Earth Vibrator] was being tested in actual combat for the first time, and they needed to obtain sufficiently accurate data.
The reason for not clearing out the people in the sinking area is to be able to obtain relevant data more accurately.
There is still an hour and a half before the Earth Vibrator is activated. Ichikiel feels that the first feedback he should give when he returns should be to ask the technical department staff to shorten the charging time a little bit, or reduce the noise caused by the pre-activation.
But before he could think of more areas that needed improvement, Ichikiel opened his eyes helplessly and looked at the trio approaching.
The guards around him quickly stood in front of Ichikiel with shields in hand, ready to charge at any time.
Izekiel recognized them, Ralph, the leader of the Knights, and Margaret, the leader of the Law Enforcement Corps, but there was another person for whom Izekiel had no relevant information.
This was quite unexpected for him. Ichikiel had done many simulation exercises, and he had even imagined the worst-case scenario where Queen Aundel and Muzel would lead the team here together.
But in all his assumptions and predictions, there was no figure of this person in front of him. To be more precise, there was no figure related to the Glorious Church.
"Really..." It seemed that he was thinking about what words could express his thoughts. After a pause, Ichikiji finally used a relatively common word, "...rare."
"The Archbishop has blocked Queen Aundair and Muzel from entering the city. The Griffin Legion is fully committed to protecting the Central Royal City. The only forces in Fairhaven that have enough combat power and personnel to come to the sinking area are the Law Enforcement Corps and the Knights."
Ezekiel was a man wearing glasses and looked middle-aged, more like a scholar than a bishop.
He pushed the glasses on his nose and said, "But according to my intelligence, the leader of the Law Enforcement Corps and the leader of the Knights Corps have always been at odds. Even if one of them guessed that I was in the Sinking Area, he could only come with his men. My men have already ambushed at various important roads in the Sinking Area, which can at least delay me for a while."
It has to be said that Ichikiel's arrangement was very targeted. If Mo Cheng did not know about Ichikiel's existence, and was more familiar with his usual layout, and had guessed the existence of the [Earth Shaker] through the earthquake, then the Law Enforcement Corps and the Knights would probably still be in Fairhaven investigating the cause of the earthquake.
"So, can you tell me how you figured out my whole layout?"
Ignoring Ichikiel's question, Mo Cheng was not in a hurry to take action either, because he knew very well that there were definitely strong people protecting Ichikiel.
"Margaret, there is a Holy Light user hiding in the building area to the left. Be careful. It is a new profession developed by the Inquisition."
"Ralph, I leave the big guy with the shield to you. Don't let him interfere with me."
