"Probably a goodbye kiss."
The super-tier advancent task was a hundred tis tougher than Lin Rui had imagined, so he imdiately instructed Audrey, "Su Xi’s advancent challenge might involve a tough battle. Go and bring the Life Sacrifice and the Woodland Fairy from the territory."
Audrey widened her eyes and asked, "Is it that serious? To the point where Su Xi might trigger Fearless Brave?"
"Let’s hope not." Lin Rui still held so hope; after all, the territory’s Luck Level was rather high, so it shouldn’t be unlucky enough to be thrown directly onto the Desperate Level battlefield.
But the Life Sacrifice and the Woodland Fairy had been waiting with Lin Rui for more than two hours.
Dusk had ended, and after the sun set in the west, night had enveloped the entire territory.
Life Sacrifice Yvette quietly spoke, "Lord, Su Xi hasn’t co out yet, could there be any danger?"
Lin Rui glanced at the ti, his expression solemn; it was already certain that the battle wasn’t going well.
If the Imperial Army were prevailing, they wouldn’t still be fiercely fighting at nightfall.
The battlefield Su Xi was thrown into wasn’t the advantageous battlefield Lin Rui had hoped for.
Audrey and Silver Moon brought over dinner, Silver Moon bit her silver teeth tightly and said firmly, "Master Su Xi will definitely co back safely!"
"Oh my, oh my. If Su Xi cos back and sees this stubborn man standing here, won’t she be moved to give him her first love?" Yuyu’s voice ca from the side.
Lin Rui gave her a glance and replied calmly, "She doesn’t have that anymore."
"What?"
"When?"
"To whom?"
Everyone looked speechlessly at Audrey, who was the last to ask.
Audrey looked confused, "Why are you all looking at ? I didn’t take it!"
Audrey’s silly antics sowhat lightened Lin Rui’s mood.
But the difficulty of the super-tier advancent challenge truly exceeded everyone’s imagination.
Everyone waited another five hours; midnight had already passed, and it was early the next morning, yet nothing had happened.
Audrey, speaking her mind, said, "Father, could Su Xi have died in battle? Could a war really last until the next day?"
Yuyu quickly covered her mouth, "Bah, bah, bah, what nonsense are you talking about?"
But by the ti dawn arrived, with the first ray of morning sunlight breaking through the darkness, even the always optimistic Yuyu lost her confidence.
If the battle started yesterday, it would have already been two days and one night by now.
There should have been a decisive outco by now.
Could it be that Su Xi really died in battle and the teleportation gate would never open again?
Everyone was waiting for soone who would never return...
Thinking like this, everyone’s mood grew heavy.
As the sun rose, Terion and Hanna had already led their troops back to the territory, having cleared out a large number of creatures and Green-skinned camps during the night.
Terion, after settling the troops, ca to Lin Rui and inquired, "Lord, the Explorers are urging us to send out troops. When shall we start the battle against the Templar Order?"
Lin Rui pondered for a mont and then decided, "Tell everyone, we’ll depart at dusk tomorrow. You’ll garrison the territory while Hanna leads her troops with on the campaign."
Lin Rui’s resolve was unwavering; no matter the situation, he wouldn’t disrupt his plans to grow stronger.
Terion was utterly surprised, "Have Hanna follow you into battle?"
Lin Rui nodded, "Soone has to be responsible for the defense of the territory. I can’t leave Hanna here, or else by the ti we return, the entire territory might have been turned into a place of sadomasochistic delight."
"Hiss~" Terion took a deep breath, indeed, this was sothing unimaginable.
A blood light interrupted their conversation as a pungent sll of blood enveloped the territory, causing a tingling sensation in everyone’s scalp.
Before the blood-colored teleportation gate, everyone covered their noses and stepped back.
Then a blood-soaked snow-white leg stepped out from behind the teleportation gate. The leg was perfect, with smooth, tight skin. Blood stread from above the thigh, flowing without a drop left behind, along the curve of the leg, falling onto the soil.
Everyone gazed in astonishnt at Su Xi, who stubbornly supported herself with a knife, slowly walking out.
How intense must the battle have been! To the extent that her entire set of [MKV Thunderbolt Type] heavy armor was shattered.
"Quick, heal her!" Lin Rui imdiately enveloped her in ten layers of shields.
The blood-colored teleportation gate dissipated, and Su Xi lifted her head to look at Lin Rui, smiling, "I’m back. Didn’t let you down, did I?"
Lin Rui took in her Level 3 in Tier Six, taking a deep breath; to co back, this woman truly gave it her all.
Just how many monsters did she have to kill to leap two levels even at Tier Six!
Lin Rui stepped forward, helping her remove the shattered armor plates. For the first ti, this stubborn woman softened her will, leaning weakly into Lin Rui’s embrace.
But her eyes remained bright, looking at Lin Rui, "Look at my new traits."
Following the montum, Lin Rui opened her attributes to take a look.
Her Talent had been elevated from Epic-level to Legendary-level.
Below, two imnsely powerful traits appeared all at once.
The first was the reward for advancent.
[Blood Prayer: Legendary Trait: Life is a prison, death is release. Death is atonent, blood is prayer. Killing an Elite-level or higher unit baptizes oneself with blood, gaining a layer of Prayer Blessing, granting the Blood Tyrant Body state, lasting 3 seconds. In Overlord State, one cannot be controlled by anyone, dispersing all negative effects. Each layer of Blood Tyrant Body increases own Physical Attack by 10%, Physical Defense by 10%, Spiritual Resistance by 10%.]
Blood Tyrant Body!
If this state lasted more than just 3 seconds, it would almost be of Mythical Level; if it could last 3 minutes, it could even rival Holy Spirit Level.
In the red Overlord State, she’s not only immune to all controls but also greatly enhances her Attack and Defense.
If she could instantly kill 100 people, within 3 seconds, her Attack Power and Defense could reach a terrifying 1000%.
In such a state, even if Dark Wings’ Physical Defense was maxed out, by relying on her Physical Attack, she could cut through the armor of Dark Wings.
Lin Rui quickly pondered, realizing that her trait was quite easily enhanced.
There must be so sort of treasure or blessing that could extend the duration of the state.
Even extending each layer’s duration from 3 seconds to 4 seconds would be a qualitative boost in combat power for Su Xi.
Lin Rui then looked at Su Dai’s second trait.
This trait was the reward for the Celestial Punishnt Hunter’s upgrade to a Super-Tier Troop, a unique feature of this troop.
[Blood-colored Shadow Demon: Super-Tier Trait: The Celestial Punishnt Hunter can condense a Blood-colored Demon Shadow with exceptionally high vitality. The Shadow has its own consciousness, inheriting all traits, attacks, and defenses. The Celestial Punishnt Hunter can swap positions with the Shadow regardless of any distance or even spatial planes. (Note: Once the Shadow strengthens by killing nurous monsters, it will continuously attempt to assassinate and replace its host, currently trying once per cycle. Blood-red)]
Good, powerful, and indeed consistent with the characteristics of this world, both evil and dangerous.
The Celestial Punishnt Hunter is essentially a troop that is both righteous and evil, with traits similar to demons—dangerous and uncontrollable.
Demons, although powerful, are crazy, likely to be controlled by things like anger or desire at any mont.
The Celestial Punishnt Hunter is the sa; her trait is indeed formidable, capable of swapping positions at any mont, entirely unpredictable, and more eerie than blinking.
But it is also more dangerous than a demon, with a Blood-colored Demon Shadow constantly watching ominously from behind, not knowing when it might launch a deadly attack.
It’s like dancing with the Death God, betting one’s life to beco stronger.
Without a strong will, one could be driven insane by this shadow, not daring to relax even when sleeping.
Otherwise, at any mont, she might succeed in her surprise attack, chopping off soone’s head.
