Volume 6: Fighting for the World Chapter 347 Opportunity
It is not an easy task to induce the Church of Light to send any level 10 professional NPC to chase and kill me. There are only twelve cardinals and twelve Knights of Light in the two major light professions. They are all national treasures and cannot be easily damaged. The level 10 professional NPC itself may not be too important. Even if it dies, another level 9 NPC of light can be promoted to fill the vacancy, and the full quota of twelve level 10 professionals in each profession can still be guaranteed. What is really valuable is that every level 10 professional NPC will definitely hold an artifact. Once the level 10 NPC dies in battle, the artifact it holds will fall. Unless it is recaptured by the player of this profession or handed over to the system "selflessly", it is equivalent to completely losing it. It is necessary to "create" a new artifact as an exclusive prop for the level 10 professional NPC, which will consume the divine power reserve of the main god of this profession. For the main god of the light profession, the angel Michael, now has come the critical moment when he will compete with the main god of the necromancer profession, the god of death, and the main god of the magic knight profession, the fallen king Lucifer. He will soon be able to use the ultimate summoning magic of light "The Descent of the Miracle of Light" and the ultimate summoning skill "Possession of the Miracle of Light" to launch an unprecedentedly fierce battle in the human world with the ultimate summoning magic of the undead "Dinner of Death" and the ultimate summoning skill of the magic knight "Possession of the Demon King". He will certainly not be willing to waste more of his own divine power to "create" a new artifact of light to make up for the unnecessary losses, which will make the twenty-four NPCs of the tenth level of light profession act more cautiously and will not easily put themselves in danger. Moreover, we have a previous experience. I once designed a plan to ambush Cardinal Sampras and Light Knight Hanover with other companions of the resistance alliance. Although we were safe in the end, because our overall strength was still a little short, we were not able to really threaten the lives of the two current level 10 Light NPCs holding artifacts, but we killed several of their followers and guards, which made them have a false alarm. With such a "previous record" before, I think the Light Church will act more cautiously when facing me, and will not easily fall for my "luring the snake out of the hole" strategy.
Therefore, the first thing I need to do is to, through a series of performances, on the one hand, try to dispel as many doubts as possible about the existence of the Church of Light, and indeed show that I am alone in the Western Continent as a guerrilla, without the cooperation of other resistance forces and allies, and it is definitely not another ambush to lure the enemy; on the other hand, it is to create as many murders as possible in the Western Continent, the headquarters of the Church of Light, and use crazy and bloody means to arouse the "public anger" of the Church of Light, cause greater "public outrage", and indirectly put more and more pressure on the Church of Light, forcing them to consider sending suitable personnel to suppress and contain my actions. However, I resolutely implemented guerrilla tactics. I had a mount that I could ride, and I could transform into a bat and fly. I summoned tenth-level undead men with strong mobility to fight. I carried out the tactic of running away if I couldn't win, and running away if I won. The huge Western Continent had enough space for me to move. Except for knights and players and NPCs of the Knight of Light profession, players of other professions could not catch up with me at all. Unless the Church of Light was willing to mobilize more people and deploy more people to participate and lay a net to capture me, it would be difficult for normal hunting methods to do anything to me. At the same time, although my strength was strong, it could not pose a threat to the current tenth-level NPC of Light who held the artifact. At least, I alone should not be able to threaten their lives in a short time. I was in the headquarters of the Church of Light. As long as they fought with me for a while, other reinforcements would soon arrive and join in the siege. The success rate of killing me, especially curbing my arrogance, was quite high. The bait had been spread, and I tried my best to do the best preparations. It all depends on whether the Church of Light can resist the temptation to kill me, and dispatch the current level 10 NPCs of Light to fight within the ten-day period given in the "Killing" mission, giving me the opportunity to kill them and earn corresponding rewards.
For this reason, I became even more ruthless and rampant, bullying the top players of the Church of Light, such as the Supreme Honor, Holy Heaven, and Real Madrid, who were all pinned down in the southern continent by the alliance of resistance forces and dared not easily return to the western continent for support. The local light players who stayed behind or were active lacked masters of the same level who were truly capable of competing with me, and once again played the role of "Bloody Hand Butcher". Every day as soon as I went online, I summoned Taotao, Shaman, Heinsili, Haishar and other capable undead subordinates to roam around the western continent. As long as they found a light player, no matter whether he was a man or a woman, or whether his level or strength was high or low, they would not let him go if they had a chance to kill him. On the one hand, I took the opportunity to accumulate more professional merits, and on the other hand, I tried my best to use such bloody, brutal and murderous means to force the Church of Light to respond, so as not to ignore it and let me kill at will in the western continent. In the continuous operations for several days, I committed numerous bloody crimes, and my behavior was extremely arrogant. I almost refused to leave the Western Continent. Wherever I went, I killed people. The momentum was getting bigger and bigger. For a time, the resentment of the Light players was boiling. They criticized my "atrocities" and denounced them. More and more victims or Light players who might be victims shouted that they must kill me, and called on the Church of Light to take targeted measures as soon as possible to effectively curb my crazy behavior of invading the Western Continent and killing people wantonly and treating Light players as nothing. The more the Light players made a fuss, the happier I was. I would be more ruthless in killing the Light players I encountered. Anyone who fell into my hands basically died, and there were few survivors. I intensified the killing of Light players, and my reputation became even worse. In just a few days, the "evil index" assessed by the Church of Light has risen by more than ten percentage points, reaching an unprecedented height that has never been seen before and will never be repeated. It can basically be said that before the end of "Tianxia Yi", including Long Xing Tianxia, there will be no other member of the resistance alliance who has the hope of usurping my title of "the first evil man in darkness". I have become the most hated criminal by all the bright players in "Tianxia" and must be killed as soon as possible.
At the same time, the high-level leaders of the resistance alliance, such as Long Xing Tianxia, Qing Wu Feiyang, A Feng, and Xue Wuxia, who knew the inside story, did not stand idly by. As the "number one undead wizard in the world", I was able to be the first to advance to the tenth-level Undead Holy Spirit Mage profession in advance. In addition to further improving the reputation of the Undead wizard profession and the resistance alliance, it will also be of great benefit to the resistance alliance's subsequent attack on and destruction of the Cathedral of Light in the remaining main cities of the southern continent. Although I chose to invade the Western Continent and complete the "killing" mission alone, and declined their kindness to directly participate in helping, Long Xing Tianxia still decided to indirectly help me as much as possible after learning of my plan to "lure the snake out of the hole" and lure the Church of Light to send the current level 10 Light NPC to hunt me down. He frequently mobilized manpower and secretly put on a posture of preparing to attack the Cathedral of Light in the Southern Continent as long as the Church of Light sent troops to support the Western Continent, threatening the Supreme Honor. These top Light players did not dare to divide their troops to encircle and suppress me, and covered my actions with a reasonable disguise, which seemed more like another layer of luring the enemy, to further cover up my true purpose of trying to lure and kill the current level 10 NPC of Light. As long as the Church of Light could not think of this, would not worry about the safety of the level 10 Light NPC itself, and there was a great possibility that it could effectively suppress and contain my actions, or even kill me directly, there would be a considerable possibility that the red cardinal Sampras, who held the artifact "fixed-point teleporter", would be sent to hunt me down, giving me the opportunity to kill them in return. With the secret cooperation of the alliance of resistance forces, I launched a bloody massacre, taking a two-pronged approach, step by step testing and provoking the bottom line of what the Church of Light could tolerate, to see if they would let me run rampant in the Western Continent alone, killing people for ten days, trampling on and even insulting the dignity and honor of the Church of Light in their base camp.
The "killing" has been going on for the eighth day, and hundreds of light players have died at my hands. Most of them are level nine professions. Although their strength is basically ordinary, they don't have a high status in the church of light. Killing one of them will not bring much professional merit, but there are many of them, and the results are not too bad. Of course, there is still a long way to go to achieve the more ideal goal I want to achieve. It can't help me get a higher basic spiritual attribute value reward when I advance to the tenth level of the undead holy mage. The main hope is still placed on the current level ten NPC of the light who holds the artifact. As long as I can kill one of them at will and seize the light artifact they drop, it will definitely be a great achievement, and I will definitely get an excess promotion reward when I advance. Otherwise, just relying on these "small fish and shrimps" killed every day, it is really difficult to satisfy my appetite for higher promotion rewards every time, which is bound to have a certain adverse impact on my future development prospects. Only I, the first player in Tianxia who is qualified to be promoted to the tenth-level profession, have the opportunity and ability to target those current tenth-level light NPCs who possess divine artifacts. In the future, as our players' strength increases, they may not only be prepared in this regard, but also completely release the restrictions on their abilities, and be able to summon the Angel of God Michael and Gabriel and other four holy angels to descend or possess them to fight. It will be even more difficult to kill them.
After a few hours of rest, I went online again and started to summon Taotao and Scatter them again, preparing to implement my killing plan again, because the main purpose was to lure the Church of Light to send out any level 10 Light NPC to fight. In order to further "give them courage", I had to take more risky actions, not staying online for a long time, summoning more and more undead subordinates to help, and dividing the 16-hour online time limit every day into two periods. After killing for a few hours and achieving some results, I would move to another place alone, log off the line to rest up, and then continue to log in to "Tianxia" to fight. This should make the Church of Light more confident that it can defeat and expel me. Anyway, summoning pets such as Ibola, Taotao, and Scatter will not consume much of my mental power, and I can accumulate a very powerful lineup of undead subordinates in a short time. What I have been worried about is that the level 10 NPCs of light are unwilling to show up. As long as they dare to appear in front of me, I will strive to give the Church of Light a more shameful brand.
Everything still followed the usual practice. I summoned Taotao first, then Shaman, and then Rosberg. I asked it to summon the Ghost Knight King Heinrich, and summoned the demon spirit turtle shadow to possess it, and used "instant teleportation" to follow me to transfer. Then I used "blood change" to summon Haishaer and a vampire prince. The lineup was already quite powerful. Even if I encountered Sampras and his pursuit again, I should be able to resist, so that the Church of Light would not doubt my true motives. Then I immediately rode on Taotao, urged the "touch of death" to absorb its mental power, and moved to other areas to search for the traces of those light players and kill them. However, before I could replenish my mental power, I saw a flash of white light two or three hundred meters away, and a dozen light NPCs had appeared in front of me. This scene was very familiar, and it was exactly what I had been looking forward to. Cardinal Sampras used the artifact "fixed-point teleporter" to teleport over with a group of NPCs. They showed up at such a timely moment. It seemed that after confirming that it was not a trap set by me or the resistance forces, the Church of Light finally decided to send the current level 10 Light NPC to deal with me. They should have arranged for light players or light NPCs to set up a "reconnaissance network" to sense my unusually strong dark aura. Once they received the report, they immediately used the "fixed-point teleporter" to teleport to my vicinity, refusing to leave me more time to replenish my mental strength and summon my undead subordinates to fight.
I didn't care that I couldn't summon more undead minions. As long as Sampras showed up and gave me the chance to kill him, I was thankful and overjoyed. Naturally, I didn't dare to expect anything higher. While continuing to absorb spiritual power, I checked the specific number and level of the light NPCs that were teleported to kill me. The two leaders were old acquaintances, the red cardinal Sampras who held the artifact "Fixed Point Teleporter" and the light paladin Hanover who held the artifact "Cupid's Arrow". They were exactly what I wanted. I had a general understanding of their abilities, especially the power of the light artifacts they held, which made it easier for me to kill Sampras, who held an auxiliary artifact that was not helpful in direct combat. However, they have a few more level 9 light NPC followers and guards than before - I remember that last time only ten NPCs including Sampras and Hanover were teleported over, but this time the number has increased to eighteen. Each level 10 NPC brought four elite cardinals and paladins of light. Obviously, as our players' strength increases, the level 10 light NPCs have also relaxed most of their ability restrictions, and can bring out the greater effectiveness of the artifacts they hold, and their strength has also been further enhanced.
No matter how many Light NPCs were teleporting to chase me, or how powerful they were, as long as they showed up, it was an opportunity for me. I had no way to retreat. In order to kill the Light NPCs of higher levels and status within the ten-day limit of the "Killing" mission, I could only fight them with all my strength, strive to achieve greater results, and obtain higher basic mental attribute values as a promotion reward. At the moment, I tried my best to suppress my ecstasy, stabilize my mind, and continue to activate the "Touch of Death" to replenish my mental power. Then I would launch a full-scale attack, try to catch Sampras and the others off guard, kill Sampras in the shortest time, and seize the artifact "Fixed Point Teleporter" he held. After discovering me, Sampras and Hanover immediately set up their battle formations. They didn't rush to chase me, but first summoned their respective pets, all of which were upper-level tenth-level light pets, and then cast "Angel Advent" or "Angel Possession" - the elite level nine light NPCs should summon upper-level tenth-level light pets and eight-winged holy angels, while Sampras and Hanover summoned upper-level tenth-level light holy pets, white tigers and light dragons, as well as eight-winged war angels that surpassed upper-level tenth-level (Sampras summoned war angels that were also suitable for close combat and pursuit, rather than cherubim for long-range magic attacks and assistance, probably to entangle me as much as possible and not allow me to get away easily). Now that players have not yet been promoted to the tenth-level profession, the tenth-level light NPCs cannot summon the four more powerful holy angels, such as the Angel of God Michael and Gabriel, to possess or descend to fight. This should be their strongest strength under normal conditions.
After completing the preparations, a group of NPCs of light came to chase me aggressively. In terms of speed alone, I, a "pseudo-knight" riding Taotao, could not compete with the Knight of Light Hanover and those upper-level eight-winged holy angels and battle angels who came. I had to have the undead to cover the rear. However, my goal this time was not to escape their pursuit. I was plotting the life of Cardinal Sampras and the "Fixed-point Teleporter" of the Light Artifact he held. Naturally, I would not get entangled with them for too long, so as not to waste too much time and easily provoke other NPCs of light and players of light to rush over and take advantage of the situation. It would be more difficult to kill Sampras at that time. Therefore, after trying my best to activate the "Touch of Death" to replenish my mental power, I also turned back and prepared to fight Sampras and Hanover to the death.
