Chapter 13 Divine Powder! Indra has arrived with siege equipment!
Chapter 13 Divine Powder! Indra has arrived with siege equipment!
The wind turned a corner in the canyon, completely dispersing the black mist left behind by the Abyss Walker.
Wang Yan stood still for ten seconds.
He mentally divided the Abyss Walker's words into three parts.
The intensity of the first and second sequence trials.
Second, only two survivors remain from the God-Slaying series.
Third, there is a second level below the coordinates of where he buried the sword in the back mountain of the beginner village.
The first two can be verified, but the third cannot be confirmed.
But the most crucial piece of information cannot be ignored—that person called out his real name.
Wang Yan.
Three hours after the game launched, someone called out his name from his household registration.
There's only one explanation for this.
The other party wasn't a player at all.
"Boss," Zhuang Bugui walked to his left rear, his voice low, "how much of what this person says do you believe?"
"70% intelligence, zero% motive."
Zhuang Bugui raised an eyebrow.
"Intelligence can be cross-verified." Wang Yan put the divine fragment into his backpack. "But if a stranger reveals all his cards to you, it's either because he's desperate or the cards you see are bait."
"Whatever it is, the twelve-hour countdown is real. The progress of the Godslayer Prototype is stuck at 127, which is 73 points away from the second stage. The Heart of the Judge has only advanced 27 points, and the remaining gap requires divine materials of the same or higher level."
He pulled up the map.
In my past life's memories, the only place where divine materials spawned during this period was the Lost Altar, an underground river twelve kilometers east of Blackrock Canyon.
There are three divine crystals on the altar.
Each piece can provide approximately 15 to 20 points of growth progress; with three pieces maxed out, the maximum is 60.
not enough.
Thirteen points to go.
The Abyss Walker said he knew the spawn points, and if he was referring to the same place, then he also knew there weren't enough.
This is a hook.
The missing portion would mostly be made up using the seven divine fragments he possessed.
Cooperation is not an option, but a predetermined and inevitable path.
Wang Yan put away the map.
"Go, southeast, twelve kilometers."
"Twelve kilometers?" the stewed goose in the iron pot wailed. "Brother, if we run through the map, we'll get chased and bitten by monsters."
"No." Wang Yan had already taken a step. "The monster bonus range of the Fate Mark is 300 meters. Follow me; all monsters within 300 meters will spawn at high levels. They only recognize my signal, but at the same time—"
He tilted his head slightly.
"They also dare not approach the prototype of the God-Slaying Demon."
Zhuang Bugui immediately understood. "The mark raises the monster's level, and the aura of god-slaying scares them away. You're a walking vacuum."
"For travel only." Wang Yan's lips curled into a slight smirk. "Twelve kilometers, full speed, forty minutes."
The four men advanced at full speed towards the southeast along the canyon.
Throughout the journey, Wang Yan's divine perception remained constantly extended. Within a 500-meter radius, monster signals rose and fell, yet all lingered on the edge, daring not to cross the boundary.
His attention was drawn to the text flooding the world channel.
The phrase "God-Slaying Record" split the entire player community into three factions.
The hunt was led by the Myth Guild, with Emperor Shitian's golden bounty notice displayed at the very top—a reward of three pieces of gold equipment for capturing the "Unnamed" alive, and a purple skill book for providing precise coordinates.
Those who wanted to watch the spectacle started a live thread on the forum to follow his every move, and the comment section has already reached 130,000 replies.
There are also analytical schools.
One of the IDs looked familiar.
【Sword as the Man (LV11)】: Is the 1000% damage to divine units in the God-Slaying series a real attribute or a system effect? If it is a real attribute, will the judges sent by the Council of Gods increase the damage indefinitely?
Su Zihan.
In his previous life, he was the leading theorist in the Northern War Zone and the first person to derive the recursive formula for divine damage.
He later died on the first day of the apocalypse.
Wang Yan noted down the ID but did not add it as a friend.
Now is not the time.
When I reached the seventh kilometer, my divine senses detected something unusual.
Four hundred and twenty meters ahead, on either side of a depression of gravel.
The six players signaled and spread out in an ambush formation.
LV14、LV13、LV12、LV12、LV11、LV11。
There is no guild logo.
Zhuang Bugui noticed it too. "Someone's here."
"Six, professional hunters." Wang Yan slowed his pace.
In the Eternal Plane, there are lone wolf players who specialize in taking on bounty orders. The most famous hunter group in the previous life, "The Liquidation Bureau," started out doing this business in the early days of the open beta.
Wang Yan did not take a detour.
He pulled out the prototype of the God-Slaying Demon and held it in his right hand.
"Zhuang Bugui, lead the two of them around from the left."
"Have you ever faced it head-on?"
"No time to take detours." Wang Yan's pace quickened instead. "Besides, the prototype of Godslayer is still seventy-three points short of completion."
He glanced at the red blood lines writhing on the sword.
Killing other players does not increase your equipment progress.
but--
His gaze fell on the rubble depression ahead.
Divine perception detected an extremely faint pulse, buried about four meters directly below that area.
Like a heartbeat.
There's something down there.
Zhuang Bugui followed his gaze and saw that the surface of the gravel depression was completely normal.
"Can your senses penetrate the ground?"
"The signal source can be identified within four to five meters." Wang Yan has confirmed that "it is a trace amount of divine material."
This was not in his memory.
The lost altar is twelve kilometers away, while this place is only seven kilometers away.
When the Abyss Walker says "the nearest respawn point," does he mean the Lost Altar, or this place?
Let's get it first.
Wang Yan drew his sword and walked into the rubble depression.
Six professional hunters suddenly attacked.
The three on the left used crowd control skills, the two on the right circled around from behind, and the LV14 Dual Blade Hunter in front charged straight at their face.
A standard six-person decapitation tactic.
Wang Yan did not stop.
He tilted his head to dodge an ice arrow, his Rock Armor talent deflected a flying knife, and the Godslayer Prototype slashed out diagonally as he moved.
The dual-bladed hunter raised his blade to parry.
The knife broke.
The silver-gray sword blade slashed through, and the blue double-edged blade snapped in two.
-1847
One fatal blow.
Before the body fell to the ground, Wang Yan had already turned to the left.
[You have stolen the talent: Stealth (Rank D)]
The remaining five hunters' formation collapsed within three seconds.
Zhuang Bugui flanked from the side, using his Ghost Step to tear through the back row, taking down two with two strikes. Iron Pot Stewed Goose and Qi Qi threw stones from a distance; although they didn't cause much damage, they successfully attracted a hunter's attention.
In that split second of distraction, Zhuang Bugui's knife was already upon them.
In twenty seconds, all six were wiped out.
Without checking the battle results, Wang Yan squatted down in the center of the depression and planted the God-Slaying Prototype into the ground.
The sword blade penetrated four inches into the ground.
The red bloodline suddenly lit up.
The sword suddenly sank, as if being dragged into the ground by an invisible force.
Wang Yan did not let go; instead, he pressed the sword down further.
The soil cracked, the gravel churned, and a faint ray of golden light seeped out from the cracks.
The prototype of the God-Slaying Sword was completely buried in the ground.
Three seconds later, pull it out.
A thin layer of golden powder covered the blade, which was being rapidly shredded and devoured by the red bloodline.
[Godslayer - Hatchling Progress: 127→139/200]
Twelve o'clock.
It wasn't much, but it really worked.
Wang Yan stood up and brushed the dirt off his hands.
He doesn't remember this point.
In my previous life, no one had ever discovered this place.
Indeed, without divine perception, who would know that something is buried four meters beneath their feet?
How many more such hidden resources are there on the map?
He glanced at the progress bar. 139/200, sixty-one short.
The three crystals from the Lost Altar, plus the twelve points here, would be just enough under extreme circumstances.
There is almost no room for error.
The countdown timer in the upper right corner of the panel jumped once.
[Countdown to the Second Sequence Trial: 11:21:07]
Time keeps moving forward.
Wang Yan sheathed his sword and continued walking southeast.
He had just stepped out of the gravel depression when a private message popped up.
Not an Abyss Walker.
It was a name he never expected.
[Sword as the Man: Hello, "Untitled". I have a math question about the term "god-killing" that I'd like to ask you.]
[Sword as its master: In exchange, I can tell you—Emperor Shitian assembled an elite force of 120 people twenty minutes ago, and they are moving towards your current coordinates.]
[Their swordsmanship reflects their character: They brought siege equipment.]
