Volume 6: Fighting for the World Chapter 351 A Crucial Battle
Although the function of storing 80% of the spiritual power is extremely useful to me, the "Death Robe" only increases the spiritual power limit by 150%, which is a bit low for a divine weapon. At least the wizard's crown held by the Undead Holy Spirit Magister also increases the spiritual power limit by 150%. If we take the high-level holy equipment as a reference, its increase is obviously higher than the "Death Robe", and there are also several other divine weapons with more spiritual power limit attributes. For the necromancer, the most important thing is naturally the value of the spiritual power limit, which is directly related to the level and number of the undead minions that can be summoned by casting the "Undead Summoning", and determines the size of the combat power that the necromancer can exert. Of course, I also clearly know this. The reason why I finally decided to hold the "Death God Robe" which ranks relatively low among the twelve dark artifacts is mainly because increasing the upper limit of mental power does not have much impact on me. With the basic mental power attribute value that has reached the third level of super gold, if measured by the upper limit of mental power I currently have, I can already summon the undead subordinates of the holy beast level to the human world to fight through "Dead Summoning", so that my combat effectiveness will not be affected by the insufficient upper limit of mental power. Although there are no suitable undead subordinates of the holy beast level for me to summon for the test, it was confirmed by the dead old man after I paid a "consulting fee", so it should be correct. Therefore, I don’t need to pay too much attention to the growth rate of the upper limit of mental power. I mainly value the ability to burst out and continue to fight in a short period of time, and choose the artifact "Death God Robe" with the function of "storing mental power".
Through the system announcement, I became the first player in Tianxia to be promoted to the tenth-level profession, and I possessed as many as four dark artifacts. This made other players in Tianxia just know that I had not only successfully broken through the siege led by two tenth-level light NPCs and sixteen elite-level nine-level light NPCs, but also took advantage of the situation to kill a current tenth-level red cardinal and took away the light artifact he held. The sensation caused by this had not yet subsided, and it once again aroused a greater impact, which not only further improved my reputation, but also benefited the resistance alliance I belonged to. The members were more motivated and were favored by more and more players. On the contrary, it was another major blow to the Church of Light, which made the morale of the light players lower again, and it was even more difficult to get the help of neutral professional players headed by the Neutral Alliance, either openly or secretly. Moreover, for me and the resistance alliance, the benefits that can be obtained from it are not just these "empty names", but also bring more direct benefits - with me, a super strong man who has been promoted to the tenth level of the Undead Holy Spirit Mage profession and can cast the "Death God's Dinner" to summon the dead old man's clone to help in the battle, in the attack and destruction of the remaining Cathedral of Light in the main cities of the southern continent, it should be able to play a greater role, further increase the chances of the resistance alliance, speed up the time to successfully end the "Southern Expedition" operation, complete the relevant tasks earlier, and start the final battle with the Church of Light as soon as possible. The key is that my "advance promotion" this time is different from the previous "first promotion". It was "forced" by the system, ignoring my personal will. In order to maintain the basic balance of power between players and NPCs, I had to advance to the tenth level of the Undead Holy Spirit Mage profession in advance. The reason why the system took such an approach, in addition to my relatively strong personal strength and many great contributions, one of the main purposes is to allow those current level 10 NPCs of light to open the ability to summon the four holy angels such as the Angel of God Michael and Gabriel to descend or possess, so as to form a more effective constraint on me who has subdued the Ultimate Destruction Knight of the holy beast level as a pet and can summon it to the human world to fight. Therefore, the direct beneficiaries are only the level 10 NPCs of various professions, and other players do not have such a good opportunity. They still need to follow the normal procedures and develop step by step. When they meet the relevant promotion conditions, they will pass the assessment to determine whether they are qualified and capable to be promoted to the tenth level profession. Even if my premature promotion has some "accelerated development" effects on other players, it will not be too obvious. At least in one or two months, it should be difficult for another player in "Tianxia" to be promoted to the tenth level profession. I am the only player who has advanced to the tenth level of the profession at this stage. Even those who have won the highest honor of "First Person of Light" are unable to compete with me. Unless the Church of Light dispatches the current tenth-level NPC of Light, or uses the human wave tactics to besiege many people, they can't do anything to me. Basically, I can be called "invincible in the world". With my participation in the battle to attack and destroy the Cathedral of Light, no matter whether it is the players of Light or the nine-level NPCs of Light stationed in the cathedral, who can be my opponent? I will kill one if I see one, and chop two if I encounter two. I can help the resistance alliance eliminate all enemies in the cathedral in a shorter time, completely destroy the Cathedral of Light in one fell swoop, and use this rare "God-given opportunity" to take as much advantage as possible.
With my current basic mental attribute value of Super Gold Level 3, as well as the increased mental limit and "summoning" ability attached to each piece of equipment, according to the evaluation given by the dead old man, under normal conditions without the need to use the "blood change" ability, I can summon a holy beast-level undead subordinate through "summoning the undead". If converted into upper-level undead subordinates of level ten, six can be summoned at a time, and the combat effectiveness that can be exerted is increased exponentially. It seems that the most powerful "human wave tactics" of the undead wizard must be carried out to the end. This is probably also to better compete with the light players in the future. After all, no matter how much the old man brags, he can't cover up the fact that the dark camp headed by him and the fallen king Lucifer has been defeated time and time again for thousands of years. It is estimated that the angel of God Michael can withstand the attacks of their two main gods on his own, and although Gabriel and other four holy angels also belong to the holy beast level, but with the cooperation of relevant light auxiliary magic, once they put on special equipment and are promoted to the form of war angels or cherubim, their strength is much stronger and no longer can be resisted by ordinary holy beasts. The only known holy beast-level undead creatures in the "Dead Soul Space" are Hades, the Hell Dragon King, and Robinho, the Abyss Dragon King. Ibora, the Ultimate Destruction Knight under my command, is now the only one who can be said to have the potential to evolve into the Ultimate Destruction Knight of the holy beast level, but it is not certain. I believe that there should not be too many demons with the strength of the holy beast level that can be summoned by the magic knight professional players. Otherwise, why would we need our two major dark professions to fight against the Church of Light together? After carrying the crime for tens of millions of years, we would have been able to overthrow the "dictatorship" of the Church of Light. Therefore, although after being promoted to the tenth-level Undead Holy Spirit Mage profession, I only increased my mental power limit by 50% compared to before, but with the effect of the super-high basic mental power attribute value reaching the third level of Super Gold, I can summon the tenth-level upper-level undead subordinates without consuming too much mental power, which previously required more mental power to summon, which greatly improved my combat effectiveness.
On the one hand, I wanted to test the real combat power of the tenth-level Undead Holy Spirit Mage through actual combat. On the other hand, I also wanted to strike while the iron is hot and continue the sensational effect caused in "Tianxia" to create a more favorable situation for our resistance alliance. Therefore, soon, the resistance alliance launched an attack on the Cathedral of Light in a main city of the southern continent. Naturally, I, the newly promoted tenth-level Undead Holy Spirit Mage, acted as the main combat force. After a little cover-up through the "Western Disturbance" operation, I launched the attack brazenly. I naturally shined in the battle and fully demonstrated my strong strength. The tenth-level upper-level undead, who is still the main combat force of other undead wizards, can only play the role of a small fry in my hands. Even the ultimate destruction knight Ibora, who is a super pet of the holy beast level, can only play a supporting role. The real protagonist is the dead old man's clone summoned by me using the "Death's Dinner". The combat power shown can only be described as "super strong". The "Death Scythe" was wielded and flew across the sky, and the NPCs and players of the light stationed in the church and the reinforcements who heard the news were defeated. Each summoning time lasted about 20 minutes, which was a nightmare for them. There was no way to resist the attack of the dead old man's clone. If they were not in the Cathedral of Light, they could use various auxiliary formations to strengthen their attack and especially defense capabilities, and they had the advantage of occupying the home field, and could continuously recruit reinforcements, and they also had a greater advantage in numbers. In the situation where there was a lack of helpers with corresponding strength to compete with the dead old man's clone, I am afraid that those NPCs of the light would have been completely defeated by the attack of the dead old man's clone. Even so, the Light NPCs and Light players only held on for a while longer, and it was still difficult to save them from fate of defeat. If it had not been in the late stage, when the overall situation had been decided, I would have let Afeng, Xue Wuxia and the others take the opportunity to earn more merit points, which would have helped them advance to the tenth level profession earlier. Therefore, they consciously restrained the killing actions of the dead old man's clones and other summoned undead minions, and did not be too greedy for monopolizing the credit. I believe the battle would have ended earlier.
The first public appearance of me, the Undead Holy Spirit Mage, who was the first level 10 professional player in Tianxia, ended with a brilliant victory. I helped the resistance alliance destroy the Cathedral of Light cleanly and neatly, showing unprecedentedly powerful combat effectiveness, which was far beyond the ability of the current level 9 professional players and NPCs to resist. While further inspiring the morale and fighting spirit of the resistance alliance and strengthening their confidence in victory, it also amazed players of other professions and forces, but also caused criticism and refutation from many players, especially the professional players of Light who were directly harmed by it. They even filed a public complaint to the official Tianxia, believing that the system allowed me to advance to the tenth level so early, while other players would lag behind by much, at least by about two months. During this period, I, the only level 10 professional player, would be allowed to run rampant in Tianxia. This was obviously an unfair phenomenon that destroyed the balance of the game, which was tantamount to allowing me to "bully" them arbitrarily in Tianxia, and set off a very loud protest movement. However, the official of Tianxia soon gave an explanation and disclosed some not-too-secret data about me. In particular, I have already subdued a holy beast-level undead creature as a pet, which already has the strength to surpass other players and even the level 10 NPCs of various professions. It can be said that the system had to let me advance to the level 10 Undead Holy Spirit Mage profession in advance. Otherwise, if I waited a few months to advance, those level 10 NPCs of the Church of Light would also be unable to suppress me without opening the summoning of the Angel of God Michael and Gabriel and other four holy angels, and they would really let me run rampant in Tianxia. Now at least the current level 10 NPCs of various professions, especially the two major light professions that are in a hostile relationship with me, have fully recovered their strength. They can be arranged to mobilize them to deal with and contain me according to the actual situation. There is always a strength that can compete with me, so I won't suffer too much. Moreover, some of my current achievements were achieved under the conditions allowed by the game rules. It can be said that I am on the same starting line as other players. It is entirely due to my unremitting efforts and the luck of seizing more opportunities that I have such a strong strength now. This is also one of the important reasons why the system is willing to let me advance in advance. Other players are still far behind me, so they naturally cannot enjoy the same treatment, otherwise it will truly destroy the balance of the game. In the face of indisputable facts and evidence, those protesting players, especially the light players, could not come up with a strong reason to refute, and the controversy caused by this gradually subsided. Although there are still many light players who are my direct enemies who are quite dissatisfied, it is no longer relevant to the overall situation, and will not force the "Tianxia" official to compromise with players of other professions. It is also equivalent to a disguised declaration of my unshakable dominant position among the "Tianxia" players in the next two months or so.
The Church of Light would not sit back and watch me, who had been promoted to the tenth level of the Undead Holy Spirit Mage, join hands with the resistance alliance to destroy the remaining cathedrals of light in the main cities of the southern continent one by one. It also quickly made adjustments and sent the current tenth-level NPC of light to the southern continent to preside over the overall situation and cooperate with the Light Senate to resist the invasion of our resistance alliance. The tenth-level NPC of light was not sent to deal with those players of the ninth-level profession. The main task must be to guard against my attack. I was the only player who was promoted to the tenth-level profession. Therefore, the Church of Light was allowed to dispatch only one current tenth-level NPC of light to the southern continent to assist. According to relevant intelligence, it should be the old rival who had fought with me many times, the Knight of Light Hanover who held the artifact "Cupid's Arrow". Perhaps he was allowed to "make meritorious contributions" after he had fully recovered his strength after losing his partner, the Cardinal Sampras. The reason why the Church of Light dispatched the Knights of Light who could directly help in the battle, and did not dispatch the Cardinals who had stronger auxiliary combat capabilities and were more suitable for playing a role in melee, was probably because they knew that my newly subdued super pet, the holy beast-level Ipolana, had extremely fast speed and strange attack methods, which could pose a greater threat to the light priests with weaker defensive capabilities. After having killed a current Cardinal NPC and lost a light artifact "Fixed-Point Teleporter", the Church of Light did not dare to take the risk again and chose the Knights of Light with stronger self-preservation capabilities to fight. On the premise of ensuring their own safety first and not allowing any mistakes, they tried their best to curb my performance in the attack on the Cathedral of Light.
After further confirmation that the Church of Light had indeed sent the Light Knight Hanover, who held the artifact "Cupid's Arrow", to the southern continent to take charge, there were only two options for our resistance alliance - one was to prevent me from directly participating in the action. As long as I didn't show up, the Light Knight Hanover would not take the initiative to fight and attack and the task of destroying the Cathedral of Light would be completely handed over to other companions. However, this was too cowardly, and it seemed that I was intimidated by the strength of the Light Knight. As a level 10 professional, I didn't dare to confront him head-on with his fully opened abilities. It would easily undermine the rising morale of the resistance alliance, and I couldn't effectively play my role to help the resistance alliance gain an advantage as much as possible or even win the final victory, which was not advisable. In that case, I can only choose another tactic, and let the Knight of Light Hanover be dealt with by me. This has relatively high requirements for me. Not only must I be able to resist the attack of the Knight of Light on me, but I must also try my best to find opportunities to provide necessary assistance to other companions who participate in the attack on the Cathedral of Light, and help kill more NPCs and players of light stationed in the cathedral, so as to maximize my super combat power. Once implemented, it will be the first public duel between the ultimate skills of the two major professions, "The Dinner of the God of Death" VS "Possession of the Miracle of Light" in "Tianxia". There will be no room for maneuver between the two. Who is stronger and who is weaker can only be proved by the results. The final success or failure is of great and even decisive significance to the resistance alliance represented by me and the enemy's Church of Light.
