Sanctuary Paradise

Chapter 473 Contract Dream Come True [6k words]

Half an hour later, at the Lailai Cult training ground.

【Challenge successful, time: 3'45＂39】

Bang!

On the training ground, as the electronic sound of a successful challenge rang out from the radio, the black-haired young man, covered in scars, let go of the sword in his hand and let it hit the ground. At the same time, he lay down on the ground, gasping for breath.

The next second, white light descended from the ceiling of the training room, quickly healing the black-haired young man's injuries, and his black windbreaker that had been cut open also quickly returned to normal.

——The advanced training mode uses the same mechanism as the protection mode of the Paradise Arena. No matter how much damage is taken or how much durability the equipment consumes, it will eventually recover.

——The only exception is when receiving fatal injuries. At this time, the protection mechanism will be changed to directly lock health and invincibility, invalidating the current damage. At other times, it is normal to be injured and treated.

[Repair completed, the challenger has been restored to its original state]

After recovering to his best condition, Xin Lailai got up from the ground again, put away Yuan Mo, walked to the terminal, and looked at the content displayed on the terminal:

[Current difficulty level: Level 31, yes/no to try again? ]

Level 31 White Night Contract.

After trying for a full hour, he finally succeeded in passing this thing without using the Nether Scale Sky Feather and Silent Transformation.

Judging from the panel, his current basic attributes, passive skills, and hidden bonuses such as nerve reflex speed are actually better than those of the level 31 White Night Contract.

However, the energy of the Blue Steel Shadow after he pointed out [Energy Blocking] was too suppressive for him. Coupled with the fact that the other party was a destroyer of magic and was restrained in magic, as well as the training ground being an environment with no natural products to utilize, the only skills he had left were three techniques and the psychic field.

Other spells and magic can't hurt the enemy, let alone get close to them. Even the soul-slaying effect provided by soul weapons has little effect because of the opponent's swordsmanship master's inherent soul damage reduction and soul-eater talent.

In this case, his victory over the level 31 White Night Contract can be said to be entirely due to the panel suppression.

After all, after learning a lot of common passive skills, his body defense can now reach an outrageous level of 80 points when his health is less than 65%. His health has even directly exceeded the 10000-point mark, turning himself into a panel monster.

Coupled with the high damage reduction and dominance provided by the Transcendence Set and the damage mitigation and weak dominance effects provided by the Fighting Master's Strength, he managed to make it impossible for the opponent's Legendary Blade of Destruction inlaid with three Soul-Breaking Shadow Stones to break through his defense. One blow to his body only took away less than 20% of his blood. He relied on the strategy of exchanging injuries for injuries + panel crushing to forcibly defeat the level 31 White Night Contract.

"The next one is the level 32 White Night Contract. How about calling Ling Yuzi over?"

Xin Lailai looked at the last unclicked entry on the terminal and fell into deep thought.

The biggest difference between the level 32 White Night Contract and the level 31 Contract is that it will replace the three ordinary golden equipment at the designated positions on the opponent with the [Demon Hunter King Set].

As for the specific effects of the [Monster Hunter King] suit, you can check it by simply clicking on the entry:
……

[Demon Hunter King Set (3/3)]

Origin: Any Paradise Camp

Quality: gold

Category: Rings/Pendants/Firearms
耐久度：75/75（戒指），70/70（项坠），80/80（枪械）
Attack power: 145 (gun form, not activated)

Equipment Effect 1, Resistance (Ring Form·Passive): Reduces the duration of all abnormal states by 40%.

Equipment Effect 2, Unyielding (Pendant Form·Passive): When HP is below 10%, the time to enter [Near Death] state will be delayed by 20 seconds.

Equipment Effect 3, Death Penalty (Gun Form·Passive): It can form exclusive ammunition [Blood Bullet]. [Blood Bullet] explodes after hitting a unit, causing the hit unit's body defense to be reduced by 8%, healing effect to be reduced by 6%, and movement speed to be reduced by 3%. It lasts for 4 minutes and can be stacked up to 5 times. After each enemy is killed, 1 to 5 [Blood Bullets] will be formed depending on the enemy's strength.

...

Set Effect 3, Demon Hunting Moment (Passive/Active): When not in combat and with full energy, it will store energy, with an upper limit of 6000 points.

Active effect: After the stored energy reaches the upper limit of 6000 points, you can activate [Monster Hunting Moment], during which all your skills will enter a no-cooldown state, lasting 100 seconds, with a cooldown time of 10 days.

……

This is the Demon Hunter Set.

The dream suit for all melee contractors, the strongest melee suit among regular gold suits.

In terms of level, this thing belongs to the same grade as the [Transcendence Set]. Although it is slightly inferior to the Transcendence Set in terms of attributes and damage bonuses, it only occupies one equipment slot to enjoy the bonus effect of the entire set. Even many contractors who are unable to develop melee capabilities are reluctant to replace the [Demon Hunter King Set] after obtaining it, and instead keep it equipped on their bodies.

After all, even if you can't get the 60% melee damage bonus, the 12-point real attribute bonus + 35 maximum health bonus + 28 abnormal resistance bonus alone are enough to make many people treat this thing as a treasure.

You know, even Xin Lailai himself has been trying to buy a set of [Monster Hunter King Set] at a high price, and he was even willing to exchange it for a +5 legendary set. However, this thing is really too rare, and even after the bounty has been offered, not to mention the seller, there is not even any relevant information.

Otherwise, if he could have an extra set of [Demon Hunter King Suit], his ability to deal with crises in the next world would definitely be raised to a higher level.

"Forget it... I'd better ask Ling Yuzi to come over."

Xin Lailai looked at the suit effects on the terminal, and after a while, gave up the idea of ​​a one-on-one fight.

Without the remaining zeros, his combat power is obviously different from that of the level 32 White Night Contract.

Especially the [Limit Release] ability that the opponent possesses. Without [Armor Enhancement IV], this ability is actually useless. Even if you use it, it's almost like a loud fart.

But with the bonus of the [Demon Hunter King Set], the situation is completely different. Once the limit is lifted, the opponent's strength, stamina and agility attributes will instantly be far behind him.

Among them, the 3 points of real physical strength attribute have the least impact. As for the agility attribute, even if the opponent also has the intuition skill, in front of the psychic field that has been strengthened once with gold skill points, even if the opponent is ahead by 4 points of real agility attribute, the speed in close combat will still be slightly ahead of him. The impact brought by the 5 points of real strength attribute is the greatest.

After all, without clicking on [Release Limits], his melee attack ability is actually no different from that of the level 32 White Night Contract.

In terms of damage bonus and attack destructive power, his side is definitely higher, but in terms of slashing speed and sharpness, the opponent is obviously better. Overall, they are actually at a balanced level.

But once the opponent has 5 more points of real strength attribute, his advantage in attack strength will be overtaken by the opponent in an instant. In this case, if he wants to continue to suppress the opponent in close combat, he can only replace every normal slash with a flowing slash that consumes sword force to enhance, and the sword force gain of each sword cannot be less than 50%.

But doing so would be a huge test for his soul energy reserves and the speed of sword force recovery. Resisting the erosion of the opponent's Blue Steel Shadow's energy was already enough to consume sword force. If there was an additional consumption, it would be impossible for him to hold on with his soul energy alone.

——It has been decided that only the spirit fusion and the nirvana state can be used. The wheel can be used, but two people cannot attack at the same time.

After a few seconds, Xin Lailai made a decision in his mind and quickly notified Ling Yuzi.

If he and Ling Yuzi completely let go and fought together, even the level 32 White Night Contract would be unbearable in front of them. This is the inevitable advantage brought by two against one.

But if we just ban some methods one by one, the impact will be relatively small.

"Ling Yuzi, how is it?"

"Well... Lailai, I roughly understand your idea, but Lailai, are you sure you really don't need my assistance?"

"No, we can just switch control of our bodies when necessary. After all, this is the last time for the second level to challenge this thing. After thinking about it, I don't want to leave any regrets."

"Okay, then until you call me, Lailai, I will just be responsible for watching the fun, okay?"

In the soul space, Ling Yuzi sat on the edge of the bed, sliding his snow-white little feet, tapping his lips with his index finger, and spoke to Xin Lailai in an obedient tone. He looked worried, but his eyes were full of excitement, as if he couldn't wait to see the other party fighting with the level 32 Bai Ye Contract.

"Well, that's enough."

In the training ground, Xin Lailai nodded, without hesitation, he directly selected all the items displayed on the terminal interface, and finally pressed hard to confirm silence.

[Confirmed, starting to generate the White Night projection, current difficulty level: Level 32, challengers please prepare for battle! ]

Om-! !

A familiar bloody energy instantly erupted from the center of the training ground, and a figure wearing a long leather jacket began to take shape quickly.

[Tip: Already entered [Elf Assimilation] state]

A majestic dark pressure rose up and collided with the oncoming blood energy. The shadows of a white crown and cloak emerged, instantly increasing the pressure emanating from Xin Lailai greatly, immediately suppressing the opponent's blood energy.

But the next second, with the sound of a cold electronic voice, the situation that was still slightly advantageous a second ago suddenly changed:

[Generation completed, challenge begins! 】

boom--! !

Without any hesitation.

Almost at the moment when Bai Ye's projection was generated, he took a heavy step forward, and the sense of oppression on his body instantly increased a lot, like a bloody evil beast, attacking Xin Lailai with an unparalleled sense of oppression.

As expected, the [Limit Release] effect was used right at the beginning!
Xin Lailai looked at the Bai Ye projection, whose reaction speed was obviously faster than when he was at level 31. His pupils shrank slightly, and the gain of the psychic field instantly opened to the limit of 200%. The black giant sword in his hand suddenly accelerated, turning into a black afterimage to block the cold light that was heading straight for his neck.

Tangled Blade·Flowing Slash!

Blade Sword·Blood Blade!
clang! !

An unusually heavy sound of weapons colliding was heard, and Xin Lailai's expression changed slightly.

——The force is wrong. This is not the force that 85 points of real strength attribute should have!

——The golden equipment randomly given out by the opponent this time also includes equipment that can increase the strength judgment!
In just a moment, Xin Lailai understood what was going on. Without any hesitation, he immediately detonated the strong force attached to his arm and turned from offense to defense.

Blade sword, extreme!
An arc of light, so deep that it was almost pitch black, rose from the blade that was wrapped in dark blue lightning arcs. It was the energy of the Blue Steel Shadow that was almost concentrated to the extreme.

The next moment, a dark blue lightning mark flashed through the air and collided heavily with the black giant sword blocking Xin Lailai.

boom--! !

[Tip: The [Hardness Controls Softness] effect has been triggered, entering the [Weak Overlord] state, and resolving the direct physical damage received this time]

The cold reminder flashed across Xin Lailai's vision, but he had no intention of paying attention to it at the moment. Instead, he relied on the strong resilience brought by the double hegemony and high knockback resistance to withstand this extremely heavy blow without any pause. He directly seized the gap when the opponent swung the knife, slightly bent his body, legs and waist, and bulged the muscles on his arms. He slashed at the opponent with all his strength. Wrapped Blade·Flowing Slash!

The enhanced stream slash, which amplified the sword's power by 70%, swept across the air with a dark arc of light and was instantly picked out with lightning speed. However, just as it was about to touch Bai Ye's projection, the figure of Bai Ye's projection suddenly became illusory.

Dragon shadow flashes!
--coming!
Almost at the same time as Bai Ye's projection became illusory, Xin Lailai's hands moved as if by instinct, and the wings behind him spread out, and the whole person's figure immediately became illusory.

Space shuttle!

Xin Lailai was like a cold machine, calculating every millisecond of time accurately. When Bai Ye's projection used the Dragon Shadow Flash to teleport behind him and was about to break away from the space shuttle state, he instantly put himself into the space shuttle state.

Wow!
The blade wrapped with dark blue lightning arcs pierced through Xin Lailai's neck, but the next moment, the shadow of the white night projection that had just become solid became illusory again.

Dragon Shadow Flash·Second Combo!
Without any hesitation, Bai Ye's projection, which had already activated [Demon Hunting Moment], immediately chose to release Dragon Shadow Flash again. At the same time, the direction of the blade in his hand tilted, from a horizontal chop to a diagonal chop towards Xin Lailai's shoulder joint.

Lifted!

Youlin Kongyu's space shuttle state was instantly lifted, allowing the extremely sharp Dragon-Slaying Flash to pass through Xin Lailai's body once again.

Not only that, you can see that the Yuan Mo in Xin Lailai's hand also slashed towards the position of Bai Ye's projection, allowing the sword body to directly overlap with half of the opponent's body.

Seeing this, Bai Ye's projection instantly moved forward several meters in the Dragon Shadow Flash state, so that his body could break away from the overlapping state with Yuan Mo's sword to prevent Xin Lailai from exchanging injuries for his life. At the same time, the Dragon Flash in his hand flashed a cold light in the air, and he slashed diagonally from the right to the left, making a movement of putting away the knife and gathering strength.

Blade knife·kill!
Peng——! !

Sheath the knife, gather strength, turn around, and explode!
A blood-red blade light like a streak of silk instantly burst out from the blade, and the whole set of movements was smooth and flowing, with no pause at all from the moves to the flat slashes and then to the connection between the moves.

Winding blade·Flowing slash.

Xin Lailai, who had no idea how many times he had practiced sparring with the opponent, was not at all panicked when faced with the sudden slash of sword from Bai Ye's projection. Instead, he took a step forward, exerted force with his torso, and like a mad dragon, he swung the huge black sword in his hand towards the bloody slashing light with a piercing whistle.

Bang!
The dark sword light formed by the devil's power mixed with the king's might collided with the bloody slash that spread out in an oblique fan shape, and finally both exploded.

Fragments of blood mixed with lightning arcs fell on the layers of magic chips on Xin Lailai's body, making a series of crackling sounds.

Boo hoo hoo-! !

Several rays of light came from the air, and after Bai Ye's projection swung out a bloody slash, his right arm shook, turning into an afterimage, and instantly swung out three dark blue blade beams.

Bang bang bang——! !

A semicircular magic chip with three outward-concave sides appeared and collided with the blade light formed by the blue steel shadow energy, causing three dark blue explosions of varying sizes.

——Of all the opponent’s moves, the easiest to deal with are these sword beams formed purely by the energy of the Blue Steel Shadow.

——You only need to use the property of Blue Steel Shadow's energy to produce a direct annihilation reaction when it encounters magic power to place spell chips in advance, and you can easily intercept it.

Blade Sword·Blood Blade!
The projection of Bai Ye, who swung out three sword beams, did not care about the results of the three sword beams at all. Instead, he took a step forward. His body speed instantly broke through the speed of sound. With a sharp explosion, he turned into a bloody afterimage, swept a straight bloody cut in the air, and slashed towards Xin Lailai.

Winding blade·Flowing slash.

clang!
The powerful heavy sword and the light and sharp long sword collided again. The powerful force made Xin Lailai groan, but under the influence of domineering body and knockback resistance, he still did not retreat a single step. He exerted force with both arms, swung the black giant sword that was taller than Bai Ye's projection, and slashed towards Bai Ye's projection with a stream of swords.

Dang-dang-dang-dang-dang! !

The slashes, so fast that people could not see clearly, collided with each other at high speed. One side had 84 points of real agility attribute + LV.30 intuition ability, and the other side had a psychic field that increased the nerve reaction speed by 200%. The speed of their attacks had long surpassed the scope of the second level.

A fierce collision sounded, and the entire scene on the training ground was split into two halves with the collision between the two people as the center. The left half was shrouded in a large amount of dissipated demonic power and dark pressure, while the right half was engulfed by the blue steel shadow fragments and blood all over the sky.

At first glance, it looked like two ferocious beasts, one black and one red, fighting each other. The cold weapons and the majestic extraordinary energy were their claws. The collision between the weapons and the explosion when the magic power was devoured by the energy of the Blue Steel Shadow were their roars.

One is swift and sharp, every strike of the sword is soul-slaying.

One is fierce and domineering, and every sword he uses is a fatal one.

Not only that, as the two fought, the mana of both sides began to drop rapidly. Bai Ye's projected shadow continuously converted mana into Blue Steel Shadow energy and condensed the sword light to strengthen the slashing attack, while Xin Lailai needed to continuously condense spell chips to detonate Blue Steel Shadow energy outside his body to minimize the threat of Blue Steel Shadow energy.

——It’s coming soon!
On the training ground, Xin Lailai looked at his mana which had consumed nearly 30/1 in less than 4 seconds, with an extremely calm look in his eyes.

Although using mana to offset the energy of Blue Steel Shadow outside his body would make his mana consumption much faster than the White Night Projection, the total amount of mana he had in the state of elf fusion was far beyond what the White Night Projection could match.

Therefore, if we continue to consume energy like this, there will definitely be a turning point, maybe in 10 seconds, or maybe in 20 seconds, or maybe...

clang! !

The pitch-black giant sword and the blade wrapped in thunder and blood collided again, bursting out a circle of strong shock waves. Then, the tip of Bai Ye's projection was slightly tilted, and his right foot showed signs of stepping forward.

It's now! !
Dragon Shadow...

Peng——! !

In an instant, the pitch-black iron feathers behind Xin Lailai flapped heavily, and the whole person perfectly blocked the time when Bai Ye's projection used Dragon Shadow Flash, and at the same time entered the space shuttle state.

Blade sword...

Clang——! !

The pitch-black sword blade hit instantly, intending to accumulate power while traveling through space. Fortunately, when the teleportation was completed, the blade was used to slash with maximum power, abruptly interrupting the opponent's action.

but--

it's not finished yet!
Dragon Shadow Flash·Double Connect!
call out! !

The projection of Bai Ye, whose moves were interrupted, actually forcibly used a second Dragon Shadow Flash while traveling through space, intending to forcibly penetrate into a deeper subspace.

But there was no change in Xin Lailai's expression, as if she had already anticipated this scene.

[You Lin Kong Yu]'s space shuttle is just a normal shallow space shuttle. It cannot enter the deep space through two space shuttles like the Dragon Shadow Flash of the Destroyer, but -

Pong!
The jet-black iron feathers behind Xin Lailai suddenly retracted and turned into a jet-black iron-scale cloak, which contrasted with the white cloak shadow formed by the assimilation of the elves.

boom--! !

An extremely violent spatial fluctuation erupted from Youlin Kongyu, instantly penetrating the three layers of space from the surface to the deep.

——What he has mastered now is not just the means of space travel!
[Equipment Effect 3, Severance (Core Active): When in [Sky Feather] form...;
When the space energy accumulates to more than 1000 points and is in the [Ghost Scale] form, it can immediately consume 10 points of durability and release 1000 points of space energy, forming a fourth-level [Space Blockade] effect that lasts for 100 minutes in a 10-meter radius area, and then enters a 10-day cooldown period. 】

Peng——! !

A fourth-order spatial blockade was formed in an instant, and violent spatial fluctuations bombarded Xin Lailai, causing him to groan instinctively. His figure reappeared in the surface space, and strands of bright red blood began to seep out of his seven orifices. The blood bar on the status bar instantly changed from 83.7% to 59.4%.

Space travel will put a huge burden on the body, and if you are suddenly blocked from space while traveling, the experience is no less than being stuffed into a tablet press and crushed from front to back at the same time.

There is no doubt that this behavior will cause him heavy damage.

only--

Bang!
A figure covered in blood popped out from the subspace with a loud bang, and a blood mist was squeezed out of its mouth.

——The projection of Bai Ye who traveled all the way to the deep space with overload would only be more seriously injured than him! !

Boom!
A powerful and heavy sound of footsteps was heard, and Xin Lailai took a heavy step forward. The deep ink in his hand began to flash with a dark light.

Om-! !

In an instant, several overlapping blue-green crystal shields appeared between Xin Lailai and Bai Ye's projection. Even in this situation, Bai Ye's projection still did not give up resistance, but instantly condensed most of the remaining magic power into the Ao Ge shield of the highest strength.

then……

[Hint: Entered the [Nirvana Assimilation] state! ]

Black and white light rose from the training ground. Xin Lailai, who had anticipated that the opponent would use Ao Ge's power to block the fully charged Tyrant Slash, instantly entered the state of Nirvana, concentrated all the Nirvana energy on her feet, and kicked forward with all her strength!
boom--! !

The three shields of Aoge were shattered. Even the energy of Qing Gangying could not escape annihilation in front of the devouring energy that was born to destroy.

[Tip: The [Soul Sword] active effect has been activated! ]

[Tip: The [Soul Shield] active effect has been activated! ]

In an instant, the whole world seemed to slow down.

The cold light blue text prompts passed by slowly in front of my eyes, and the black giant sword gradually rose up, and the white blade slowly stood horizontally.

The sound of heartbeat, the sound of boiling blood, the intense excitement brought by adrenaline, and the breath of death that was so close before his eyes were all presented extremely clearly in Xin Lailai's perception.

Then——

boom!
A collision that was more earth-shattering than any other before erupted, as the dark demonic power and the dark blue steel shadow energy burst forth, engulfing everything in front of it.

Bang!

The sound of the sword hitting the ground was heard, and Xin Lailai, with a deep wound on his chest that could be seen to the bone, fell heavily to the ground, gasping for breath, and then laughed heartily.

“Haha…hahahaha! Hahahaha!”

【Challenge successful, time 1'07＂58】

He won.
