Chapter 788: Insufficient computing power, start upgrading
In this world, there are some beings that even the gods cannot despise and must even treat with courtesy.
They don't need to be deified, but their abilities are comparable to those of gods.
There is [Oakfather Valar] who has existed since the Age of Gods and has been collecting knowledge until today. No one, not even the gods, can understand how much knowledge [Oakfather] has and how many secrets he knows.
But one thing is certain: the Oak Father has no shortage of ways to turn this knowledge into power.
Even through the oral records of people who were able to meet "Oak Father", the location of "Oak Father" does not belong to any known spatial coordinates. At the same time, the area where "Oak Father" is located already has the prototype of the "Kingdom of Knowledge".
[Old Witch] Izalith, she existed even more anciently, and as one of the sources of the birth of demons, she can be regarded as a major shareholder of the [Abyss].
Moreover, to put it bluntly, the natives of the Abyss are mostly people who burn books and bury scholars. When they are in doubt, they would rather take action than talk. If they can take your life, they will never let you go. Death is not news, but survival is news.
As a major shareholder of such a place, Izalith's temper can be imagined. In any case, Mo Cheng would never treat the other party as a kind old grandmother next door.
Even if Izalith wanted to transform, it wouldn't be like this. Even when he attained enlightenment in Longchang, he didn't experience this kind of epiphany.
This is like someone telling Mo Cheng that the head of the concentration camp is a guy who wants to make the Jews great again, highlighting an impossibility.
"Relax, I know you can still deliver a punch as powerful as before, so I am harmless to you." Izalith emphasized again, "At least now there is no possibility of hostility between us. We are in a friendly cooperative relationship. I pay and you do the work. I even gave a little gift to the two little girls around you as a reward for you solving the Mad King and saving me a lot of trouble."
Seeing Mo Cheng's alert face, Izalith added: "Don't worry, it won't cause any changes in bloodline, thinking, or even stance. It's just some small gifts."
Mo Cheng curled his lips and said nothing. One fact he could not deny was that he no longer had the strength to fight Dom.
The power borrowed from all beings of the Vahlan Empire through [Heart Martial Arts·Great Wish] , after Dom was destroyed, was considered to have satisfied their wishes, so this power was rapidly decreasing.
If he really were to come into conflict with Izalith, then in his current state, all he could do was to collide [Holy Light] and [Chaos] again and take Izalith with him.
"I am only here today to retrieve what was lost before and give Crana a little punishment."
"Haha, the loss of the roots of the Ash Tree..."
Mo Cheng smiled with his lips but his expression made it very clear that he didn't believe that King Dom had fallen into madness and that Izalith had no plans involved .
For Clana to steal something of the level of the Ash Tree's roots, the difficulty would be about the same as stealing a nuclear-related box from the man in the black suit next to the president.
"Well, I should leave now. If you have time, you can come visit the Abyss."
After leaving these words, Izalith left. She did nothing, as if she was just here to collect the roots of the Ash Tree and Crana.
Mo Cheng didn't know what the other party was planning, but after seeing the other party leave, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The time limit of the BUFF with no health and no mana has expired, and at the same time, all attributes are suffering from DOWN DEBUFF. It would be completely uncomfortable to fight with Izalith in this state.
Even if Mo Cheng wanted to force the other party to answer some questions, he felt that now was not the time.
When Izalith left, the system began to calculate the kills.
【Ding, kill Dom. 】
[Ding, you have upgraded, current level: 48]
[Gain 1 skill point, current skill point: 3]
[Ding, you have upgraded, current level: 49]
[Gain 1 skill point, current skill point: 4]
[Ding, you have upgraded, current level: 50]
[Gain 1 skill point, current skill point: 5]
[Completed Achievement: Immortality? Ha! ]
【Kill the gods in the kingdom of God.】
【Obtain an ultimate equipment draw. 】
【Obtain an ultimate skill extraction. 】
[Gain a basic skill upgrade to LV 4. ]
A series of information appeared in front of him, but Mo Cheng found that this time the text on the task panel did not appear all at once.
It was like some kind of old, broken printer, releasing text bit by bit like squeezing toothpaste.
It seemed that the system itself realized that this was inefficient. After Dom's kill reward appeared, the panel closed directly, leaving only a line of text.
[Kill the gods, the system is upgrading, please wait. 】
It seems that killing the god caused the data calculation to be too high, causing it to simply upgrade itself.
Seeing the system start to upgrade, Mo Cheng didn't have any ideas. According to the system's previous settlement response, the operation of god-level data really requires it to upgrade itself.
After all, in addition to Dom's death, Mo Cheng also has a lot of achievements and tasks to complete. He is afraid that the system will crash if it is run again after the copy is completed.
Along with the upgrade came a force that continued to restore Mo Cheng.
Each upgrade would allow Mo Cheng to recover some of his injuries and strength, but the settlements in the past were always made at a time when Mo Cheng was relatively safe, so he did not have any specific feelings about this level of recovery.
But now in this environment, the recovery effect brought by the three consecutive level-ups has greatly improved Mo Cheng's body.
At least now he was beginning to regain his strength and was at the point where he could handle emergencies.
Mo Cheng searched the palace for a while but did not find any trace of Margaret and Dorothy. He only found the body of the Archdruid Vebrunn somewhere. After the roots of the Ash Tree were taken away, he naturally lost the power source to move freely.
Out of admiration and respect for the ancient demigod, Mo Cheng burned Veblen's body into ashes with fire to prevent the ancient demigod's body from being further desecrated after his death.
There was nothing valuable left in the palace . Although there was still some gold and silver, they were of no use to Mo Cheng. Moreover, he knew that these things could not be taken out.
Just before he lost his temper, he found something on Dom's throne.
