Volume 4 Chapter 488: The Newborn Divinity
A few minutes later, the Messenger of Mercy began to purify the three-meter-tall, tattered body of the barbarian with holy fire.
Sobek simply stood where he was and began to purify the divinity he had gained from the other party. Levi also sighed that this battle was unexpectedly smooth.
Not only is Sobek's current godhood level and combat power stronger than Illidan, but his strength as a newborn evil god is much worse than Paine's.
No one knew whether it was because it had been locked up for too long and the sealing array had drained too much of its power, or whether the remaining energy had been used to create the Chaos Egg. In any case, the strength displayed by this evil creature was completely inconsistent with its reputation in the legend.
Every shot of Penthesilea's attack caused blood to spurt out, Elegy and Maltis could also inflict some wounds on each other, and Levi and Cindy's hammers could also hurt each other.
Even the curse witch's little tricks can affect the other party to a certain extent.
As for Sobek and the Messenger of Mercy, there is even less to say.
However, its counterattack seems very weak, because it is a meat shield type warrior that can neither fly nor attack from a distance, has low agility, and its attack power is not too outrageous.
At least Sobek took two deliberate punches from it, and it didn't seem to hurt.
Perhaps its greatest feature is that it is extremely resistant to attacks, has a strong recovery ability, and can summon a variety of lightning elements of different classes and forms.
But these abilities are not enough to save its life.
The evil spirit is difficult to kill, but it is not impossible to kill, especially when its opponent is so powerful.
Therefore, from the moment the cursed witch gritted her teeth and lifted the seal to the moment it completely turned into a corpse, it only took a few minutes in total.
The whole process made Levi feel a little incredible .
Because among the series of powerful enemies he encountered recently, basically each of them had some unique skills or backup means, so why did he die so easily when it came to Chu Sheng?
Looking at Sobek who was busy, the Cursed Witch and Penthesilea looked at each other again, feeling that today might be the most complicated day they had ever experienced.
If they had known that the newborn was only at this level, why would they have treated it as a serious enemy?
However, this thought only flashed through their minds, because they all understood that the reason it appeared weak was because Sobek and the Messenger of Mercy were charging in the front, and the sacrifice of tens of thousands of Amazons was not in vain.
If they were not there, and the Amazons challenged the other side with their own strength, the damage they caused would probably not be as fast as the other side's recovery speed.
In addition, the opponent can also transform corpses into chaos eggs. Once the opponent successfully breaks the seal, Amazon really doesn’t know how much it will cost to defeat the opponent.
The reason why it seems so easy now is simply because the Messengers of Mercy are much stronger than the Newborns.
Wange was happily looking through her system panel. Due to everyone's tacit understanding and Levi's active request, this kill was finally left to her.
Although the newborn's performance was extremely poor, it was still a legendary level after all. In addition to giving Levi 5 legendary points, it also left her a special title.
Newborn? Just an animal!
Effect 1: Slightly increases resistance to fear, deformation, petrification, and energy absorption effects;
Effect 2, Lightning Resistance +20;
Effect 3: All attacks with lightning attributes have power +5.
(Zeus' first offspring born in this world, a violent, ruthless, cruel and murderous monster, became weak after being sealed for a long time, and suddenly realized that Zeus had left and the seal was loosened.
Unfortunately, what greeted it was not freedom, but complete death.)
Levi began to count the spoils.
At first he thought that the Shepherd God - Pan was a pure pauper, because he even stole the trident from others, and the flute he used before was nowhere to be found. As for his godhood and fragments of priesthood, they had all been divided up.
But later he found that he had underestimated the other party. Paine still had something on him, a delicate and small golden harp that looked like a model.
Blessing of the Harp Fairy - Capricorn's Resistance (Gold - Legend - Wonderful Item):
Effect 1, Heroic Hymn, passive skill. After releasing any skill, the next physical attack will randomly cause an additional 20-35 damage.
Effect 2, Aria of Perseverance, passive skill, for every 100 HP lost, 10 HP will be restored and 10 shield will be gained (lasting 5 seconds);
Effect 3, Swift Sonata, passive skill, every 50 mana consumed, the movement speed increases by 10-30, lasting for 10 seconds;
Effect 4, Capricorn Swimming, passive skill, automatically gains swimming and underwater breathing skills;
Effect 5, Resistance, Passive skill, when health is less than 30% or 100, increase defense and magic resistance by an additional 50 points.
Equipment requirement: Level 15
Occupational restrictions: None
Special Requirements: If not Pan himself, the alignment must be lawful good.
Treasure Curse 1: The direct murderer who killed Paine will never be able to equip it;
Treasure Curse 2: The Harp Fairy and her sisters may come to claim it and inquire why it is in your hands (invalidated).
(Paine once saved a beautiful harp fairy. Although he was ugly, he still won the fairy's blessing and gifts. This is also the symbol of Paine as Capricornus of the zodiac.
Unfortunately, in this special world, neither the Harp Fairy nor the twelve constellations exist.)
Seeing this, Levi felt somewhat emotional. The story involved seemed to remind Levi that Paine had once been kind in another world.
Unfortunately, the kindness in the past cannot atone for the sins that followed, and he will eventually have to pay the price for what he has done.
Each of this thing's features isn't particularly outstanding when taken individually, but it combines so many effects at once, without any curse, making it very powerful.
It just so happened that it was so delicate and small that it could be made into a necklace, so Levi found a gold chain and gave it to Elegy, which made her blush, which was rare.
Of course, there is no such thing on Paradise Island, and everyone is a good friend , but she has also lived in the society of humans and elves for a period of time, so she still understands what giving a necklace actually means.
Cindy and Martis, who were standing nearby, came forward and laughed quietly.
In addition to contributing 2 points of contaminated thunder and lightning divinity, the new life also contributed 2 portions of blood of hatred and 3 portions of regenerated bones, all of which are legendary materials.
It can be used for refining high-level magic potions or for forging equipment.
Next came the equipment of the guys from the Church of Talos. Probably because their boss was best at lightning and storms, their equipment also tended towards this aspect, and the quality was also quite high.
There are 15 epic items alone, so now Elegy, Cindy and the others can get a little update.
Next are two legendary items. One is called the Berserker Axe. In addition to its high attack, it also has a small-range splash capability, making it the best weapon for opening the invincibility.
Unfortunately, among Levi's subordinates, no one uses the battle axe as their main weapon.
Another item is called the Lost Blade. Unlike common swords, its additional attribute is intelligence, and it comes with two special effects.
First of all, it is purification, nothing much to say, and secondly, after hitting, it can burn 10-20 mana of the opponent and cause the same damage.
Now it is obvious that it is undoubtedly the most suitable for the magic swordsman Nochon.
He already has the skill to weaken the enemy's mana, and with this Lost Blade, his winning rate in a duel of the same level will undoubtedly be further improved.
The real heavyweight one is the two-handed sword in the sword master's hand - Thunder Wrath.
Not only does it look very cool, with wind and lightning surrounding it all the time, but it also has very strong actual combat effects.
Its own attack power is constant at 40, with 15 points of lightning damage, and both strength and attributes are +5.
And every time you attack, there is a 30% chance to summon a thunderbolt, causing 45-150 damage to the target.
It has few additional effects, but is undoubtedly very powerful. In comparison, its treasure curse is nothing.
It's just that when you equip it, you can't use weapons with water or fire attributes, and if you are not a member of the Church of Talos, you will be hunted down.
But even if there was no incident with the sword, Levi's reputation in the Talos Church had almost been reduced to the level of blood feud, and he would also enjoy this treatment.
Naturally, Levi handed the case over to Elegy. Now that she had a lot of treasures and abundant practical experience, her winning rate would basically be capped when fighting against other warriors below the legendary level, right?
After thinking about it, Levi gathered together the things that were left over by Elegy and Cindy, especially the Berserker Axe, and then added some Death Guards to it, and then brought them all to Penthesilea.
In today's battle, the opponent also put in some effort, and he is still thinking about the entire Paradise Island and all the Amazons on it, so of course he has to give him some benefits.
At this time, the curse witch also made a formal introduction to both parties. Although they already knew each other very well, there was still a process.
Since they had just fought side by side, they had accumulated some comradeship, and both sides had their own considerations, so this formal meeting was very harmonious.
Levi also looked at the cursed witch and said his condolences.
The cursed witch smiled bitterly: "My poor sister, she may have found happiness ahead of time."
Levi didn't know how to respond for a moment. As a demigod, Paine had the ability to completely destroy the other person's soul.
Moreover, the other party has been loyal to the Greek gods all her life. Now that Zeus and others have fled, her faith has also gone to waste. I wonder what will happen to her in the end?
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, the Cursed Witch realized that she had said the wrong thing, but it was really not her fault, as she really did not have much experience in communicating with the outside world.
Because she was on Paradise Island, even when facing the Queen, she could say whatever she wanted, so she couldn't fully adjust for a while.
Levi didn't care. He just handed the prepared things to Penthesilea.
But Penthesilea didn't even look at them and rejected them directly: "You came here to save the Amazon, and we should give you a thank you gift. What's more..."
Penthesilea's gaze shifted to the busy Messenger of Mercy. Ever since he killed Chusheng, he had been checking the seal and the heroic spirits of the Amazons, as if trying to find a way to lift the curse.
The Cursed Witch also hurried forward and asked if there was anything she could help with.
Strictly speaking, she was just the trigger of this massive curse, but what she really relied on was the power left behind by the gods, so she didn't know how to lift it.
But seeing the Messenger of Mercy frowning and sighing from time to time, it was obvious that things were not going so smoothly.
After a while, they hadn't come to any conclusion yet, but Sobek started laughing first. His mission was accomplished!
"Levi, here you go!"
Looking at the two points of divinity in front of him, Levi did not keep them all, but only took one: "Thank you for your hard work in becoming a god. This little bit of divinity is my insignificant thank you gift."
Purifying divinity is not an easy task. Even though Sobek is stronger than Illidan and Chusheng is obviously weaker than Paine, Sobek still put in a lot of effort to complete the purification so quickly on the spot.
Sobek laughed and said, "Thanks, kid. I understand your intentions, but Lilith has already given me the crystal of divine power. I will not take advantage of you again."
Just like mortals use recovery potions, gods also have similar items, namely crystals of divine power.
But both their rarity and value are countless times higher, because they are almost all condensed from pure divine power.
Levi finally understood, but he still expressed his gratitude again before accepting it and handing it to Cindy 1 point.
Although Lilith promised him to get some of Sigma's divinity, she didn't know how long it would take. She decided to use this thing to strengthen Cindy's fighting power first.
Anyway, as long as the divinity is purified and the energy properties do not conflict, there is no problem using multiple types at the same time.
Although for most gods, granting divinity is equivalent to putting a label of their own on the other party, other gods often do not intervene.
But for Levi, the hero chosen by God, he doesn't have so many concerns.
Cindy digested it quickly. Since Zeus's duties and domains included thunder and lightning, weather, sky, dark clouds, power, etc., in addition to the basic common effects such as energy, Cindy also had extra gains, and more than one.
The first is the accompanying fog-hiding technique in the weather field.
Normally, the Concealing Mist spell would raise a magical mist that obscures vision but does not move.
After Cindy consumes extra mana, the portable fog technique can move with her, which will greatly help with sneak attacks and ambushes, and she can even cooperate with Donna and other air forces in combat.
The second is the one used before birth, which summons a variety of lightning elements, ranging from small to giant, and the strength ranges from level 2 to level 6.
Compared with the more common elements like earth, fire, water, and wind, the lightning element has no obvious strengths in terms of speed, defense, or life; it is quite mediocre.
But they are much rarer because all their attacks have lightning attributes, and they can also perform long-range attacks by throwing lightning arrows, etc.
This gives them a clear advantage in most fights, especially against undead and incorporeal creatures.
Moreover, starting from level 5, they also have the ability to fly at low altitudes, which can be used whether as cannon fodder or to perform some special tasks. Levi is very satisfied with this.
As for the other point, Levi has not allocated it yet.
On the one hand, the people in front of him, such as Wange, already possess divinity.
On the other hand, after Zeus left, there was no other way to obtain his divinity, which should be the final point.
Would Penthesilea, the Witch of the Damned, and other Amazons be interested in this? The answer is undoubtedly!
Even if they don't want to be loyal to him because of his divinity, Elegy and Donna are very familiar with other Amazons on Paradise Island and will definitely be able to fool others.
Seeing him accept the things, Sobek also laughed and patted his shoulder: "Next time if you have something similar, just call me!"
He just made a trip, beat up a chicken god, purified his divinity, and got some crystals of divine power from Lilith.
He wishes such good things could happen every day!
However, if he comes again next time, he won’t be polite to Levi.
Levi knew this very well. Sobek was a god after all. How could he help him for no reason?
But he was also happy about it. With the other party's help, some powerful enemies that he was originally unable to fight against could only become trophies.
After Sobek left, the Messenger of Mercy also came over. Seeing his relaxed brow, Levi knew that he must have thought of a solution.
Sure enough, he wanted to use the same method as he had used on Dreadrock to purify the innocent mortals who had been poisoned by Nurgle.
Through the martial aura on Levi's body, the experience points he gained from killing enemies were absorbed, and then passed through a special transformation array to replenish the power consumed by the Amazons, but the scale was many times larger than last time.
As for the heroic souls nearby, their bodies had already been completely damaged, and he really had no way to deal with them.
If it were in the Golden Heaven, he might be able to resurrect a few, but this is absolutely impossible here.
When Levi heard this, he immediately rejected it in his heart. This time was completely different from the last time.
Those people at least have human form, and their strength is basically only around level 2, so they can't use much power.
These tens of thousands of Amazons have all turned into snakes. Their original strengths were uneven, with some of the highest being even level 5 or 6. Could the difficulty be at the same level?
If Levi had the power to save them, he would probably be able to reach the legendary level.
He was indeed interested in the power of the Amazon, but he did not want to pay such a price, and his name was not the Messenger of Mercy.
He also realized that the Messenger of Mercy had not yet finished speaking, so he must have other methods.
Although Levi did not speak, his hesitation alone was enough to make everyone understand his thoughts. After all, the price was indeed very high.
So the Messenger of Mercy immediately suggested the second solution.
If you don’t need experience points, then just spend money. You can also achieve your goal through a large amount of energy crystals.
That is, time will be slower, and the strength of those Amazons will be affected to varying degrees depending on the amount of energy crystals consumed.
If it takes too long, there may be some disadvantages.
He said it calmly, but Penthesilea's face changed. She asked cautiously how much it would take.
Family members know their own business. On Paradise Island, everything is done by barter, and there is no concept of money at all.
The Amazon people have always made a living by hunting, and at most they have some animal skins, bones and the like at home.
Even the sacrifices offered to the gods every year were all various kinds of meat, flowers and plants.
As for the elemental crystals? What are they? The Amazons on Paradise Island have never seen them before!
The Messenger of Mercy thought about it and said that since there were too many people and their strengths were different, he could not confirm the specific details for the time being, but conservatively estimated that the cost would start at 100,000 gold coins.
He felt that it was a great deal to be able to save tens of thousands of Amazons with this little money.
Even if you think about it from a utilitarian perspective, the resources needed to recruit these Amazons alone would be more than 100,000 gold coins, right?
The fact that they could provide power for such a large-scale sacrificial ceremony without dying directly shows their strength.
The lowest level of them is level 3, and there are also higher levels of level 5 and 6. There are even dozens of heroic units among them.
No matter how you look at it, saving them is the most cost-effective option.
But as soon as she said this, Penthesilea felt a little numb. Let alone 100,000, she couldn't even take out 10 gold coins!
Especially since Paradise Island had just suffered a great war, and both personnel and various beast-type troops suffered heavy losses. She wanted to sell the beasts, but there was nothing to sell.
If she were given some time, she would be able to organize some mercenaries, or even go into battle herself.
But the Messenger of Mercy had said before that the longer the time dragged on, the greater the impact on them would be. Not only would their strength be damaged, but they might never be able to recover.
The Messenger of Mercy seemed to have noticed it, and he obviously hesitated for a moment, then opened his mouth and was about to say something, but Levi interrupted him in advance: "If that's the case, then leave it to me."
As the Lord of Golden Heaven, the Messenger of Mercy certainly doesn't lack this little money, and he is also likely to be willing to help Amazon for free. This is his character.
But this matter involved many gods at the same time, and also involved the original agreement between the gods and the celestial beings. He was too deeply involved, which was definitely not a good thing no matter how you looked at it.
The Messenger of Mercy himself knew this, otherwise, given his character, he would have said it in advance.
Although Levi himself had no money and the materials he had were probably only enough to activate the magic circle, but Khalida had money. He already owed her so much, so he didn't care about another 100,000.
Moreover, he had already sensed that although Khalida was a legendary hero, her actual combat ability was so weak. There must be some problem. He would ask her directly when they met next time.
If this problem can be solved, I'm sure I can repay some of the favor.
Penthesilea gritted her teeth. This time she did not have any further communication with the cursed witch because they had already guessed Levi's choice in advance.
The reason why he came to Paradise Island, besides wanting to find out the truth for Elegy, was it for the power of Amazon?
So does Amazon need Levi and the many forces behind him?
The next moment, Penthesilea showed her attitude with her actions. She walked directly to Elegy and bowed her head deeply: "I'm sorry, Elegy, it was me..."
Wange was also frightened by the other party's behavior at first, but she reacted immediately and supported the other party.
"Queen, I already know the whole story, and the culprit has been killed by me personally."
"But I am the cause of this," Penthesilea insisted. "So I am very sorry. This is my fault!"
Having said this, Penthesilea bowed deeply to the Elegy.
Elegy, who had never thought that the other party would do this, was unusually at a loss.
After all, Penthesilea was the descendant of the god of war Ares and a legendary hero. When she was on Paradise Island, she could only see him a few times a year and they had only spoken a few words.
Even though she is now much stronger and the queen's power has decreased with the departure of Ares, she never thought that this would happen.
But Levi, who also saw this scene, felt comfortable instantly.
At the same time, he couldn't help but secretly praise the other party for being smart. Sacrificing a little face in exchange for the forgiveness of himself and Wange would definitely be beneficial to saving the tens of thousands of Amazons and even for future cooperation.
If they were humans, they might hug each other and cry for a while, and then talk about the hardships they experienced after separation.
But the Amazon acted decisively and quickly. After saying a few words, Penthesilea walked back to Levi.
Then, as expected, she discovered that the Messenger of Mercy had also left this small space first, probably to go outside to prepare the purification array.
As a descendant of gods, she certainly knew the agreement between the gods and the celestial beings, so she didn't expect anything from the other party from the beginning.
She also signaled the Cursed Witch to bring the Amazon heroes to help.
Even though the Cursed Witch only activated the magic circle left by the gods instead of mastering and using it herself, she can still be of some use.
Levi thought about it and asked Martis to say hello to everyone outside, and Cindy also brought the angels to help.
Penthesilea sent the cursed witch and the heroic spirits away. Perhaps there were some things that were going to happen that were not convenient for them to hear.
Seeing this, Wange didn't know what she thought of. She blinked at Levi, then left with a chuckle.
So now, only Levi and the Queen were left in this small space.
Levi was somewhat speechless. Wange was certainly not stupid, but sometimes she would always have wild thoughts. He couldn't even handle her and the sister Donna now, so how could he have the energy to attract other women?
Even if he was really that fickle, with so many beauties in the team, there was no way he would choose Penthesilea.
Because if he became close to her, Paradise Island would become his responsibility and burden.
Fortunately, Penthesilea didn't pay any attention to this detail. What she cared more about now was saving those Amazons and even the fate of Paradise Island.
She now realized that each god in her own pantheon was less reliable than the other.
Not to mention that Zeus and the others left, even Ares didn't say anything about telling her before he left.
Diana was a good goddess. She took the initiative to tell her about these matters and even expressed her willingness to protect the Amazon. However, she was too weak and also wanted to leave.
In the future, the one who can truly protect Amazon from wind and rain may become her, the queen.
But a mere legend could not do this, especially with Talos lurking nearby.
Therefore, there are not many options left for her and Amazon, and even fewer suitable ones.
As it happens, there is a good opportunity right in front of me!
