Volume 6: Fighting for the World Chapter 352: The Dinner Party of the God of Death vs. The Possession of the Miracle of Light
The matter is of great importance. Although the direct parties involved are only me and the Knights of Light, it is related to the interests and prospects of the resistance alliance. Whether to fight or retreat indirectly is not something I can decide alone. For this reason, a plenary meeting of the Dark Council was specially convened for serious and cautious discussion and research. Fortunately, Long Xingtianxia, as the chairman of the council, finally chose to believe in my strength as a "magical necromancer who can constantly create miracles". He believed that I was not only capable of resisting the threat brought by the Knights of Light, but also should have the spare energy to provide considerable help to my companions who were carrying out the task of destroying the Cathedral of Light, and could make due contributions to the action of destroying the Cathedral of Light. Therefore, after communicating and discussing with me privately, he personally came forward at the Dark Council to strongly support me in participating in the attack on the Cathedral of Light and facing the challenge of the current level 10 Light NPC head-on. As long as we can help the resistance alliance win the final victory with the help of the Knights of Light, we can hit the morale of the light players to the greatest extent and weaken their fighting spirit to persist in the struggle. It can also further strengthen the confidence of our resistance alliance members to establish victory and strive to complete the task of completely destroying the remaining Cathedrals of Light in the main cities of the southern continent as soon as possible, and help the main members of the resistance alliance who have the opportunity to participate in the ultimate battle between light and darkness to earn more professional merits and be promoted to level 10 profession earlier. This way, they can have more time to learn more or stronger professional skills and have the opportunity to further enhance their own strength. Try to gain as many advantages as possible before the ultimate battle between light and darkness begins, so that we can better compete with the Church of Light and increase the chances of winning for our resistance alliance.
After the Dark Council officially passed the resolution, a head-on confrontation between me and the current level 10 Knight of Light NPC was inevitable. No matter whether the Church of Light sent Hanover, who held the artifact "Cupid's Arrow", or several other Knights of Light, I had to compete with them. I dare not say that I must defeat or even kill them, but at least I cannot be forced into an absolute disadvantage and have no power to fight back. This is a scene that is likely to appear in the battle of the Cathedral of Light. After all, although the dead old man did not say it clearly, according to some relevant information he vaguely revealed, it is estimated that the "Death God's Dinner" and the "Demon King Possession" can compete head-on with the "Descendant of the Miracle of Light" or the "Possession of the Miracle of Light". If the Angel of God Michael did not have the tyrannical strength of one against two, it would be impossible to suppress the dead old man and Lucifer for thousands of years. In addition, we were fighting in the Cathedral of Light, the home of the Church of Light. Not only could we get the support of light magic, but the magic circle of light also had a certain combat effectiveness bonus, which enabled us to exert even stronger strength. All these were extremely unfavorable to me. I was definitely facing an unprecedented test, so I did not dare to be careless or careless, especially with a fluke mentality. I was fully prepared for a tough battle with the Knights of Light. In order to further enhance my combat effectiveness and be more confident, I took the time to apply to my immediate superior, the old man, and once again went to the "Ruins of the Gods" to learn and master the magic of "Advanced Puppetry". Although it should not have any effect on the Knights of Light, especially the Knights of Light possessed by the Angel of God Michael, it can effectively contain the ninth-level light NPCs stationed in the church and the light players who broke in to rescue. As long as the Cathedral of Light is destroyed in the end and I don't die at the hands of the Knights of Light, no matter what the outcome of the battle between me and the Knights of Light is, it will be a victory for our resistance alliance, which means that the attempt of the Church of Light to "block" me has been shattered once again.
The attack plan has been formulated. After I learned and mastered the magic of "Advanced Puppetry", the resistance alliance began to act. The necessary means of disturbing and confusing the enemy still need to be implemented. Although the Church of Light sent the Knight of Light to the southern continent to take charge, he is only one person after all, but there are several Cathedrals of Light to protect. He can only stay in the branch of the Church of Light in the southern continent. Once he receives an alarm to confirm that I, the only level 10 professional player in "Tianxia", have participated in the battle, he will be urgently teleported through the "small teleportation array" between the churches for support. Of course, if the Church of Light determines the target that our resistance alliance is going to attack in advance, it is possible to send the Knight of Light to the target Cathedral of Light earlier. As long as I show up to participate in the battle, I can be attacked immediately. This situation is naturally the most disadvantageous to me. Whether the Knight of Light receives an alarm and teleports to the battlefield to fight, or I summon more undead subordinates to enhance their combat effectiveness as much as possible, it will take some time. Whoever can take the initiative may be able to determine the final outcome of this duel. Therefore, what the resistance alliance has to do is to confuse the attention of the Church of Light as much as possible. As long as they can't judge our specific attack targets and delay the time for the Knights of Light to come to support for a few minutes, I will be able to summon more undead minions to help, help my companions achieve the greatest possible results, and gain a favorable situation.
Everything was ready. After using a series of tricks to entice and confuse the enemy, the resistance alliance finally launched an attack on the Cathedral of Light in a main city. I didn't have much time to prepare for the battle. After exposing my whereabouts and rushing towards the Cathedral of Light not far away, I began to quickly summon my powerful undead to help. The first one I summoned was Tao Tao. After riding it, I could save the trouble of running and charging, and could concentrate on summoning more undead. Next came the strongest undead subordinates, the holy beast-level super pet Ultimate Destruction Knight Ibora, followed by the first vampire fang prince Shaman. At this time, the vanguard troops had broken through the light NPCs guarding the gate of the Cathedral of Light and attacked the cathedral. I rushed in and cast "Blood Transformation". I used "Undead Summoning" to summon three vampire fang princes including Haishar and Samifa, Wu Ma and several other tenth-level upper-level undead subordinates, and then absorbed 80% of the mental power stored in the "Death Robe", and summoned eight tenth-level upper-level undead subordinates, and then summoned Rossberg, and asked it to summon the Ghost Knight King Heinrich to cooperate with Haishar to fight. After completing this series of summons in a hurry, I used the newly mastered "Real and Illusory" magic to create a physical clone, mainly using "Advanced Puppetry" to help the undead subordinates and other companions fight. Then, after casting the "Sacrifice" and "Guardian of the Undead" magic on myself, I began to activate the "Touch of Death" to entangle Taotao and replenish the consumed mental energy.
I didn't use "Death's Banquet" right at the beginning to summon the old man's clone to slaughter those level nine light NPCs stationed in the church. If there was no threat from the Knight of Light, I would definitely be happy to teach them a deep and unforgettable lesson. I believe that I am absolutely invincible in the church, but now the Knight of Light may come to the battlefield at any time, maybe the next moment, or maybe I have to wait for a few minutes. He is my biggest threat and the target that needs to be dealt with. The "Death's Banquet" is time-limited. Once the time limit is reached, it will disappear and must be summoned again. I don't know how long the Knight of Light who is my enemy can maintain the "Possession of the Miracle of Light". If he gets the upper hand and takes advantage of the opportunity when the old man's clone I summoned through the "Death's Banquet" reaches the summoning time limit and launches a fierce attack, without the old man's clone to help resist, and without enough undead men to protect me, I am not sure how long I can hold out against the full-scale attack of the Knight of Light possessed by the Angel of God Michael, and the situation will become very unfavorable to me. Although I have a very high basic mental power attribute value of Super Gold Level 3, and I also have the function of extending the summoning time limit added by the "Death Scepter", which can maintain the "Death God's Dinner" for up to about 20 minutes, I don't know how long my opponent, the Knight of Light, can maintain the "Possession of the Miracle of Light" at one time. The upcoming battle is a crucial one, and I can't be arrogant and careless. I must act more carefully and prudently, and try to keep the initiative of the battle firmly in my hands. Therefore, I first summoned some powerful undead subordinates before the Knight of Light appeared to participate in the battle, and then urged the "Touch of Death" to replenish the consumed mental power. I also kept two "Magic Storage Rings" with a total of 40% mental power as a backup means. I believe that I should be able to resist the attack of the Knight of Light who is about to come to perform the task of "blocking" me.
The space inside the Cathedral of Light is limited, and there are many people participating in the battle. It is not suitable to summon Khufu and the eleven pharaohs to set up the "Great Pyramid Sky Cage and Earth Lock Array", and it will not be effective against the Knights of Light possessed by the Angel of God Michael. Unfortunately, Khufu and his companions did not get the chance to play. The most important fighting force is Ibora, the Vampire Fang Emperor Shaman, and the two true and false Black Dragon Kings and Ghost Knight Kings Heinrich and Haishar. They led a group of upper-level tenth-level undead subordinates to charge and kill everywhere, and their performance was quite eye-catching. The key is that Ibora, a super holy beast-level pet, led the charge. Even the elite-level ninth-level Paladin of Light could not stop it. The light NPCs were disturbed and in chaos, and it also gave other companions more opportunities to hurt the enemy. If it weren't for the advantage of terrain and numbers, the NPCs of Light would probably not be able to withstand Ibola's attack. It alone was enough to disrupt the defenses of the NPCs of Light, making it easier for members of other resistance alliances to break through the defenses of the NPCs of Light and increase the chances of completely destroying the Cathedral of Light.
The basic spiritual power attribute value reached the third level of super gold, which made me activate the "Touch of Death" to absorb spiritual power faster. The suddenness of the attack by the resistance alliance was probably beyond the expectations of the Church of Light. They were not able to prepare in advance and did not have time to react in the shortest time. When I replenished my spiritual power, the Knight of Light still did not show up. I was not in a hurry and continued to activate the "Touch of Death" to store spiritual power for the "Death Robe" in preparation for the battle later. Under the strong attack of Ibola, the NPCs of light suffered a little. Just like the last battle, although they could still hold on for the time being and did not show signs of defeat, the situation was quite passive and lacked the strength to counterattack. If the battle continued to develop like this, they would definitely be defeated by us one by one, leading to their overall defeat. In such a rather unfavorable situation, the Knight of Light finally appeared. It was indeed my old acquaintance Hanover. He had summoned his pet, the tenth-level upper-level Holy Dragon of Light, and activated the artifact "Cupid's Arrow", which must have consumed some of his mental power. However, the elite-level cardinal who was presiding over the situation in front of the twelve-winged golden angel statue cast a spell quickly, and a white light fell on his head, covering Hanover's body as he flew over his head. Then Hanover began to slow down his flying speed, his body was radiating golden light, and a "Heaven's Gate" faintly appeared in the sky, which was slowly opening and transmitting more and more dazzling golden light. Such a vision should be a sign that the Knight of Light was casting the "Possession of the Miracle of Light". It seems that the elite-level cardinal used props or special methods to replenish Hanover's consumed mental power in a timely manner, so that he did not delay the slightest time and was ready to attack me when he appeared.
Facing the Knight of Light who had fully recovered his strength, I certainly did not dare to be careless in the slightest. As early as the moment I saw Hanover appear, I had already stopped absorbing mental energy, retracted the "Touch of Death", and immediately began to perform the "Dinner of Death". At the same time, I transferred Ibola, who had been entangled with the ninth-level light NPCs, to help the dead old man's clone to deal with the Knight of Light who was possessed by the Angel of God Michael, to see if I could effectively resist Hanover's attack.
It took about the same amount of time to cast "Death's Banquet" and "Possession of the Miracle of Light". When I summoned the old man's clone, the clone of the Angel of God Michael also possessed Hanover. The twelve white wings behind him flapped in unison at a very fast speed, and twelve layers of golden light circles surrounded him. It was obviously not just beautiful, but should have a powerful protective function similar to "Holy Light of Protection". It was obviously different from the effect of the ordinary "Angel Possession" skill. It was more like the clone of the Angel of God Michael replaced the Knight of Light, showing the image of Michael. Hanover had also discovered my figure. After completing the skill of "Possession of the Miracle of Light", he flew straight towards me. As long as the other members of the resistance alliance or pets and undead subordinates did not cause trouble for him, he would not automatically attack them. The main target of attack was me, the only level 10 professional player in "Tianxia". This is a duel that cannot be avoided, so of course I have no choice but to fight back. I command the summoned clone of the dead old man to go forward and block Hanover's fierce attack.
As I expected, the clone of the dead old man was no match for the clone of the God Michael. As soon as they started fighting, they were obviously at a disadvantage. They were not fast, and their attack and defense capabilities were not as good as the opponent. They were at a disadvantage in close combat, so they had to keep a distance from Hanover and take advantage of the weakness that the clone of Michael, who was possessed by the Knight of Light, could not cast light magic to attack. They tried their best to use powerful undead magic to contain Hanover's actions. Although Hanover could activate the artifact "Cupid's Arrow" to attack from a distance, he could not get the support of the main body's mental power during the period of casting "Possession of the Miracle of Light". The part of the mental power stored in the artifact itself could not support too many attacks, and posed little threat to the clone of the dead old man. If the clone of Michael released some of the attack methods of the artifact of light, it would increase the consumption of Hanover's mental power and reduce his summoning time in the human world, which would also be more beneficial to the clone of the dead old man. However, this method is too passive after all. I have no ability to resist Hanover's attack head-on. Other companions are not convenient or capable of intervening in the battle between us. Being approached step by step by Hanover has brought me a lot of pressure. Fortunately, I was well prepared and immediately let Ibola rush over to fight with the dead old man's clone. Compared with Hanover who was possessed by the clone of the angel Michael, Ibola, who had summoned the demon spirit Xiaobai, was also not much better in speed, but the "ghost cry and god howl" combined with "ghostly appearance" made the attack method quite strange. Even if Hanover was in the strongest state, it was not so easy to hurt Ibola. Even if Ibola's attack power was a little weak and it was difficult to cause much damage to Hanover, he cooperated with the dead old man's clone to harass Hanover, focusing on attacking Hanover's Light Holy Dragon mount, so as to contain Hanover's actions and gain the necessary attack time for the dead old man's clone. Simply harassing the opponent is Ibola's strength, and this task is still competent. I also left my mount Taotao. I had lost all my mental strength and had no way to recover it for the time being. I could not do anything now and could only concentrate on commanding the dead old man's clone and other undead subordinates to fight. I gave Taotao to my physical clone that was transformed by the "both real and unreal" magic, and let him ride to fight. I withdrew with a few undead subordinates to focus on protecting the safety of my real body to avoid being ambushed by other enemies.
