Reborn: Super God of War - Chapter 511

Chapter 511: Abyss Knight?

Lin Jie was stunned. In maps like the Ice Shrine, although all the monsters were Elemental creatures, which did not drop gold coins, items, or equipment, it was impossible for the system to let the players spend all the effort to clear the monsters for nothing. After they cleared each floor of the map, a random treasure chest and fixed treasure chest would be spawned. The so-called fixed treasure chest, as its name suggested, was the treasure chest that would definitely be spawned, it was equal to the reward for clearing the map.

However, in front of them, this ice-blue treasure chest was empty—it was illogical!

Bu Yi pulled her hand back and asked meekly, “Is it cause I am too unlucky?”

“Someone got to it first. If my guess is correct, then when we just entered this map, the Snow Elves that surrounded and attacked us were also provoked by that certain someone!” Lin Jie narrowed his eyes and said, “Looks like it was that person who took all of the items in the treasure chest. That person should have already gone up to the second floor.”

Baili Changcheng was astonished. He said, “That can’t be! How could some nobody be able to kill the pack of White Wolves in 10 seconds?”

“There is not only one way to enter here. That method was only one of them. For example, Random Teleportation Scrolls could easily bring you in,” replied Lin Jie. He waved his hand and signaled for the two of them to stay where they were while he walked towards the second floor slowly. “The two of you stay down there first, there may be dangers, I’ll go take a look.”

The second floor of the Ice Shrine was originally the place where the Believers lived. These Believers would pray all day and night devoutly to provide the power of faith to the Goddess of Ice. Meanwhile, now, these Believers had transformed into Death Prisoners to prevent anyone from desecrating their goddess.

Just as Lin Jie entered the second floor, roars could be heard. He turned around and saw that it was actually tens of Ice Skeleton Believers wearing cloaks—they were gathering Ice Elements using their shriveled bones. The Ice Elements actually were converted into Frostbolts and shot towards Lin Jie! Just nice, these monsters were all squeezing in front of the stairway.

Lin Jie sneered in his heart. ‘As expected, the monsters were purposely pulled here beforehand by someone!’

“Herya, help me!”

Lin Jie ordered, and the air rippled, the Mermaid Princess was summoned. She took a look at the Frostbolts, which were tearing through the air towards her, and smiled. She pointed her right hand, and the skill [Water Mirror] was activated once again. Those Frostbolts were all reflected and crashed against the ice-blue skeletons’ bodies, ice shards flew everywhere.

As the ice shards were scattered all over, there was a blank space in the center, which did not have any ice shards.

Lin Jie was already on guard and had been observing the place since the instant he stepped into the second floor. Once he saw such a situation, he knew that he had found the person. He shouted loudly, “Stop hiding, come out!”

As Lin Jie shouted, his right hand swelled up by a few times, and Death Grip directly grabbed towards that empty space. However, in the next instant, his palm became scorching hot, as if he had grasped a stove. A sound of vibration could be heard, Lin Jie’s Death Grip had been dispelled.

“Hehehe, Lone Wolf, long time no see.” A figure was revealed. That person had a burly stature and wore black armor. His whole body was burning with a strong black magic flame. There were even two long horns grown out of his head—that person was actually Eighteen Massacres! Currently, the Seven Style Spear looked like a Flame Longsword, and after it dispelled the Death Grip, Eighteen Massacres swung his Seven Style Spear and attacked Lin Jie.

‘Hmph, as expected, it was you! I never thought that you could still make a comeback. Looks like you got some miraculous encounter and then became impatient again, coming out to look for trouble again! Just nice, I’ll completely destroy you. In the first place, when I gave you the Sun Demonic Sword, it was to leave a trump card for myself in case I needed it. Now, it’s time to use it!’ Lin Jie snorted in his heart.

Although the Seven Style Spear’s strikes were impressive, how was it possible for them to hit Lin Jie? Before the attack even reached Lin Jie’s body, he had already disappeared, what was left in his original spot was just an afterimage created by Vanishing Step.

Pish—

It was as if the air was torn apart and had let out wails. Lin Jie’s figure gradually appeared as he ran at high speed. In his hand was a Lightning Spear that was about to pierce towards Eighteen Massacres’ chest!

“Vanishing Step? Not bad, not bad…” Just as Eighteen Massacres finished, he gave a hard kick to the ground, and he instantly retreated backward vigorously. A pitch-black magic sword appeared out of thin air and was slashed towards Lin Jie.

It was the Sun Demonic Sword!

“Hahahaha, you didn’t expect this, did you? Lone Wolf, I’m back! Did you really think I did not know what you were scheming when you gave me the Sun Demonic Sword? You wanted to make use of the special feature of the Sun Demonic Sword and deal a blow to me, right? However, you’ve given me a great gift, did you know? This Sun Demonic Sword has been completely refined by me. Haha!” Eighteen Massacres’ arrogant voice that was as loud as a great bell could be heard. “Take this! Sun Demonic Sword!”

Whoosh—

From the void of space, a huge sword suddenly appeared, that longsword was a total of two meters long and floated in the air. Flames gradually dripped from the blade of the sword. As the fire came in contact with the ground made of ice, the ground instantly turned scorching hot, but there were no traces of it melting at all. Therefore, it showed that the ice materials, which were used to build this shrine, were definitely extraordinary.

If all of the Sun Demonic Sword’s power was activated, then it could even turn the Ice Shrine to a real palace made of fire crystals!

The Sun Demonic Sword spun ten rounds in an instant and smashed down towards Lin Jie’s head.

Clink! Clink! Clink! Clink!

Lin Jie activated Rebel’s Fight and parried the attacks continuously. Eighteen Massacres had actually turned the Sun Demonic Sword into a flying sword! Back when they were at the Sun Ruins, Lin Jie had given a few flying swords to the Wind Rider Sword Saint. Meanwhile, Eighteen Massacres had also used flying swords to trap Lin Jie and nearly killed him. Who would have thought Eighteen Massacres had actually taken out the Sun Demonic Sword from his body and made into such a supplementary weapon?

‘Eighteen Massacres, it seems you have had quite the miraculous encounter! The trump card I had left did not harm him, but he made use of it instead.” Lin Jie blinked his eyes. ‘However, by taking out the Sun Demonic Sword, his job would have disappeared too. So now, what is his job?’

Just when Lin Jie was pondering, Eighteen Massacres’ roar could be heard from beside him. “You still have the time to be distracted now?”

Boom—

When the Sun Demonic Sword was slashed towards Lin Jie, Eighteen Massacres lifted his Seven Style Spear, and his spear instantly danced in the air, attacking Lin Jie’s face. The tip of the spear was filled with ghosts, and the souls of plenty of monsters like Spirits, Devils, and Headless Knights were gathered on top of it.

“Abyss Spear!”

“Abyss Knight?” Lin Jie was stunned.

Slice!

The Abyss Spear had pierced into Lin Jie’s body, the corrosive and decaying will of the abyss, which was on the tip of the spear, had spread to Lin Jie and instantly dyed Lin Jie’s skin a gloomy gray. It was as if Lin Jie had been possessed by an evil spirit!

—Battle prompt message: You were attacked by the Abyss Spear of “Eighteen Massacres”, you received 1,263 points of damage. You have been influenced by the Abyss Will, 20 Strength Stat Points are reduced.

The Abyss Spear was the signature skill of Abyss Knights. The stronger the Devils captured in the exclusive map [Abyss] of Abyss Knights, the more fearsome the effects of the skill would become. In the later stage, even a thrust of the spear could break the space barrier between The New Age and the Abyss and summon monsters like Hell Barons.

Lin Jie was in pain. He looked at Eighteen Massacres in disbelief and shouted in a deep voice, “How is it possible?”

“Hahaha, it’s unexpected for you, right? You’re surprised?” Eighteen Massacres threw his head back and roared with laughter. “All of you, come out to meet Leader Lone Wolf. You’ve taken so many benefits from him, you should at least greet him, right?”

Figures of people walked out from within the depths of the Ice Shrine. They were actually all passersby players that had been at the Frozen Tundra. They had more or less obtained benefits from Lin Jie. That youngster, who was only 20 years old, nodded towards Lin Jie with a smile. He was the one who had spent one silver coin to buy the Abyss Knight Job-Changing Token.

They were actually all Eighteen Massacres’ subordinates!

“Lone Wolf, when I obtained the Abyss Knight Job-Changing Token then, I immediately changed my job. Then I captured many Abyss Devils with pure lineage in the abyss and gave them to the Dark Shrine.”

Eighteen Massacres looked at Lin Jie haughtily with a cold smile and said, “Did you know? I’m the shrine master of the Blood Sub-Shrine now!

“You are the City of Light’s City Leader, but I’m more powerful than you as I am in control of a sub-shrine of Dark Shrine, the Undead have become my subordinates! They have to go where I order them to go! Those pieces of trash that have betrayed the Kingdom of Glory have all been killed by me. Meanwhile, those loyal to me have now power that the past them couldn’t even imagine. Just you wait, the City of Light will be seized by me soon enough, and you will be my stepping stone!”

“Blood Sub-Shrine? Good job, amazing! Eighteen Massacres, I originally thought you were just a small character, but now I know I have misjudged you. You are very strong, indeed! I have never seen anyone who is like you, you’re even more tenacious than cockroaches. You’ve been defeated by me again and again, yet you can still appear in front of me.” Lin Jie looked at the arrogant figure in front of him and suddenly revealed a cruel smile.

“So what? Do you think you can stop me, with just this many people?”

“Hehe… Hehe…” Eighteen Massacres grinned viciously and blew a whistle faintly.

Instantly, the monsters around them all squeezed towards them. The skeletons, which were filled with ice shards, looked at Lin Jie, emitting a cold and eerie stare. The skeletons raised their hands, and icicles were formed in their palms.

These Undead were all controlled by Eighteen Massacres!

After Eighteen Massacres had escaped back then, he had been staying low, strengthening his resolve, and waiting for the right time for revenge. He had sent all his loyal subordinates to pretend to be normal players and split them all up. He had even grabbed the chance when Lin Jie and Baili Xuanyuan had been fighting and let his subordinate pretend to be a new player. As such, he had successfully obtained the Abyss Knight Job-Changing Token with one silver coin.

In the end, he had succeeded in changing his job to Abyss Knight and refined his Sun Demonic Sword. Afterward, he had even put in all his efforts to strive in advancing and became the shrine master of the Blood Sub-Shrine in Dark Shrine!

No wonder there was no news about Eighteen Massacres at all in this period of time—he had had such a miraculous encounter.

His goal for coming to the Ice Shrine was naturally not to level up, but to use the blood of the Blood Sub-Shrine to contaminate the Goddess of Ice’s Statue. By doing so, he could convert this whole area into Blood Sub-Shrine’s land.

Lin Jie was the City of Light’s City Leader, so he could quicken the development of the city with his will as a player. Naturally, Eighteen Massacres could also do the same! He could make his Blood Sub-Shrine expand limitlessly.

However, that absurd talk of destiny seemed to take effect again, he had actually met Lin Jie here once again.

“This is where you’ll take your last breath, die, Lone Wolf.”

Eighteen Massacres shouted, “Release Frostbolt!”

Shoosh—

The Ice Elements that filled up the air surged violently, gathering to form sharp Frostbolts, which were shot towards Lin Jie!
