Chapter 70 Blood-Red Beach
Oh no, the other side are mages from the Mage Alliance!
This was Attitude's current thought. He had been hoping that the other party might just be a magic mage, but now that the other party had unleashed so many spells, his illusions were shattered.
"Captain, don't be afraid, I can do it too!"
The Mac10 sounded, followed by a smoke screen.
How dare you talk like that! You have no mage's soul! Is that what you call knowing how to do it? You know nothing!
Jiang Shuzhou used the Gale Technique again to dispel the smoke screen, and then casually cast the Fireball Technique to ignite it.
And so, the two sides went back and forth twice more.
The flames were reignited, but this time there was no sign of the smoke screen spell. Clearly, the opponent had run out of spell slots. However, the fact that the opponent could cast so many spells was beyond Jiang Shuzhou's expectations.
It seems the Goddess of the Magic Network has put in her effort; her desire to win the resurrection battle is now impossible to hide, and the concessions she's offering to Magic Network mages are much higher than before.
The raging fire was like an insurmountable barrier, completely blocking anyone else from getting close to Jiang Shuzhou.
However, there was one exception.
Paladin Attitude, captain of the Dynasty team.
There are only ten minutes left.
"I'll fight him. You all wait for your chance. Once the flames go out, rush over to help me immediately."
After making the final arrangements, he picked up his large shield and walked into the sea of fire.
"Splash splash splash".
Flames scorched his body, but a white halo shone again, as if divine protection graced his flesh and blood.
His extremely high resistance and the shield of divine protection allowed him to force his way through the sea of fire.
His equipment was burning red-hot, and wisps of white steam rose from his body—the steam produced by the evaporation of his sweat.
His rank was too low, and even divine protection couldn't completely insulate him from the heat. In addition, his armor was thick and dissipated heat poorly, so the temperature was already quite high. At this moment, the paladin was like a squid on a hot plate, his entire body being scorched.
Jiang Shuzhou was quite surprised. He never expected that there were such people in the world who would go to such lengths for victory. He acknowledged Jiang Shuzhou's determination.
He quietly dispelled the spell in his hand; he deserved a fight.
"Clang clang clang".
The body made clanging sounds, the sound of bullets hitting it, but still no damage was caused.
But don't forget, Jiang Shuzhou's armor is also quite high; he's a heavy armor unit.
The paladin walked with difficulty. He could have discarded his shield and run away quickly; he could have turned and left to escape his suffering; he could have…
But he didn't do any of that, because he had a reason to win!
"For Heim! For salvation!"
He shouted loudly, which was a test of his physical strength and will. His words seemed to transform into power, replenishing his exhausted body and depleted divine magic.
"666, they're not even acting anymore."
Seeing the paladin who was just moments ago so weak, now suddenly full of energy, Jiang Shuzhou exclaimed that Heim was shameless.
If Heim hadn't been pulling strings behind the scenes, I would have eaten it!
Soon, with Heim's help, the paladin crossed the sea of fire.
These gods are always like this; they disregard the will of others and don't care about the efforts of mortals at all.
Originally, he could have relied on his own will to break through the sea of fire and reach Jiang Shuzhou, but unfortunately...
Now all of this is thanks to the power of Heim.
Looking at the paladin in front of him, Jiang Shuzhou felt a pang of regret. Such a steadfast will was being enslaved by the gods. Perhaps he himself was unaware of Heim's help, or perhaps he was aware but overjoyed.
It was only because his god helped him.
"How do you feel? Does the power of the gods make you feel incredibly fulfilled?"
Looking at the paladin in front of him, Jiang Shuzhou asked curiously.
"..."
Silence. No answer.
"I originally wanted to have a fair duel with you, to defeat you head-on and give you a dignified death, but unfortunately..."
Your divine will has made it clear to me that your efforts are meaningless, as is my respect for you.
Jiang Shuzhou didn't say anything more; in the end, he still gave this resolute paladin some face.
Just as believers regard their savior as a messenger sent by God, Heim's attitude was quite heroic at first, before he took action, which left a deep impression on Jiang Shuzhou.
However, once Heim intervened, his attitude changed to that of an ordinary person; everything was simply a matter of Heim's immense power.
Heim, the god of protection, once again blessed his followers.
"..."
The paladin remained silent, but this time, he raised his shield.
Suddenly, he accelerated, but this time Jiang Shuzhou was prepared.
Freeze!
The terrain had changed, the ground became uneven, and large and small ice blocks were embedded in the ground, making the paladin's charge extremely difficult.
However, the paladin remained steadfast in his charge towards Jiang Shuzhou, even after Jiang Shuzhou quickly dodged, he still changed direction and charged towards Jiang Shuzhou.
Unfortunately, human physical strength is always limited, even for a paladin, who is only a first-tier paladin and cannot achieve that level of strength.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh."
He gasped for breath and stopped charging. He was exhausted and had changed direction several times. The charge had drained his strength.
Unfortunately, Jiang Shuzhou underestimated the extent of Geim's shamelessness.
In just a few seconds, Attitude launched another attack, and it was clear that Heim had put up his strength again.
Jiang Shuzhou wasn't surprised, since Heim's current actions were consistent with his stereotype of gods.
Still using simple and unadorned dodging, Jiang Shuzhou felt like a bullfighter taming the wild bull in front of him.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh."
He was still panting; it seemed Heim was about to unleash his divine power once more.
This time was different, though; Jiang Shuzhou didn't want to indulge him anymore.
Poison Cloud Technique!
Jiang Shuzhou threw the poison bottle in his hand and released a spell. The poison bottle exploded, and a ball of neurotoxin instantly turned into mist, enveloping Tai Du's side.
I'm not some good person, why would I insist on dueling with you? Wouldn't it be better to use poison?
A dozen seconds later, the poisonous fog dissipated, and a dazzling white light flashed around him, clearly indicating that he had used divine magic again.
However, this was of no use. As I said before, his rank was too low. His tall body crashed down, kicking up a cloud of dust.
"I regret to inform you that your journey has come to an end!"
"Clang clang clang".
Seemingly seeing their attitude was not working, the musketeers in the back row poured bullets on Jiang Shuzhou, their triggers almost smoking, trying to delay his movements, but still they couldn't stop him in the slightest.
He raised the Miao knife high and thrust it down heavily.
"Pfft."
The splattered blood stained Jiang Shuzhou's robes and also the ground.
"It's over," Jiang Shuzhou thought, looking at the paladin collapsed on the ground.
But is it really over?
As it turns out, the gods are shameless; even with his head smashed, Heim still didn't give up.
The guardian spirit is still working its magic!
The bleeding stopped, the wound began to heal, and Heim seemed unwilling to let his attitude die.
I was originally planning to leave him with a complete body, but since you've done this, I won't be polite!
Seeing the paladin recover quickly, Jiang Shuzhou didn't stand on ceremony.
He held a knife in his left hand, while a flame ignited in his right.
Flame adheres.
The target of the attachment is the paladin's armor.
Jiang Shuzhou pressed the flame in his right hand down onto the chest of the armor. In an instant, fierce flames ignited on the armor, and Jiang Shuzhou's entire body was scorched by the flames.
The burning from the flames slowed down the healing process of his wounds considerably.
The flames created new scars, and it was clear that Heim was now helpless as well.
Ultimately, the healing process stopped.
The attitude has changed.
Heim chose to give up; they do this when the effort outweighs the reward, regardless of emotion.
Points +1
The system's voice came through, clearly indicating that their attitude was as dead as could be.
In the distance, the imperial army, having witnessed everything, had completely lost its morale and no longer wanted to fight.
It's just a game. They're already so strong, so let's just give it to them.
Anyway, they've already gotten their fair share of the 50 million they won, so that's enough. They can't win anyway.
Time passed slowly, and during this time, mac10 tried to bribe Jiang Shuzhou, even offering him 1 billion yuan if he would give up.
However, this is impossible. It's just a mere billion. At the current price of about 5000 yuan per gold coin, Jiang Shuzhou could earn 2250 million yuan a month, not to mention any additional income.
Moreover, Jiang Shuzhou no longer considers this a simple game, as evidenced by the performance of the legendary alchemist, Mitters.
What kind of NPC can directly control the game system?
What's the deal with this being a created sub-plane?
He already had a vague idea about these things, but he still needed to communicate with that monk to verify his guess.
His intuition told him that if he obtained the Soul Weapon, they would likely meet again, and perhaps then he would learn the truth.
Time passed slowly, and soon only a dozen seconds remained of the mission time.
ended.
The lair of flesh let out a shriek, the last evidence of his existence, before flames completely engulfed him, flesh melted away, and all was calm.
Everyone except Jiang Shuzhou lost consciousness in that instant and was eliminated.
