Sanctuary Paradise

Chapter 597 Breaking in [7k words]

Two hours later.

[Ding-ling-ling--! ! ]

The piercing alarm sounded in his mind. On the towering city wall, Xin Lailai slowly opened his eyes, took a long breath, glanced at the Death Bearer and Yamu who had also woken up from meditation, nodded slightly, and without saying anything more, he directly took out the Overlord Treasure Box dropped by the Blood Knight and gently opened it:

[Tip: Team leader "Black Sword" has opened the Overlord-level treasure chest, and the current team has obtained the following items]

...

Blood Will (Overlord Level Equipment)*1
...

[Blood Will]

Origin: White Star
Quality: Overlord level
Category: pendant

Equipment requirements: Willpower no less than 80 points

Durability: 5/5
Equipment Effect 1, Blood Corrosion (Passive): After wearing this equipment, you will continue to suffer from the effects of "will erosion" and "perception suppression". During this period, your own perception acuity and range will decrease by 50%, but the development and improvement of perception ability will continue to improve, up to a maximum of 500%.

*Tip: This effect will place a great burden on one's own mental strength and soul. According to the Pioneer's current comprehensive physical attributes, the safe wearing time is 17 hours, and it must be worn again after at least 119 hours of buffer time.

Equipment Effect 2, Blood of Wild Beast (Active): Consumes 1 durability point to use. After activation, you will enter the "Fury" state, with sanity reduced by 99%, nerve reflex speed and dynamic vision +99%, pain reduced by 99%, true strength, agility, and stamina +10 points, and lose 1% of maximum health per second. All blood attacks will be accompanied by a "blood explosion" effect, which lasts for a maximum of 10 minutes. After the end, you will enter the "Weak" ~ "Severely Weak" state based on the length of use.

Rating: 523
Introduction: With this body, I have fallen into the state of a beast.

Price: Not for sale

...

A dazzling blood-red light flashed before Xin Lailai's eyes, and a scarlet pendant appeared in his hand. Xin Lailai looked at the effect of the equipment for a while and fell into a brief silence.

Judging from the equipment effect, the active effect of the equipment [Blood Will] is basically useless to the three of them. After all, although its bonus is extremely powerful, it cannot withstand the 99% decrease in sanity, which is really too fatal.

And to be honest, this kind of explosive equipment with a huge price is actually something they would not consider since they have already reached the third level. It is not a question of whether they can adapt to the sudden increase in strength. After all, the abilities in Paradise that can provide attribute gains are endless. Apart from anything else, just from Xin Lailai's understanding, there are at least ten ways to improve one's own attributes at no cost. The most classic of these is the ultimate ability of the Destruction System, the Blue Shadow King. After that thing is developed, it can temporarily increase the physical attributes by 40% at no cost in the strongest stage. If it is true that improving attributes in some battles is equivalent to sudden death, then the Destruction System should have been completely extinct as early as the Second Era.

What really makes those explosive methods become unpopular is actually the source of their power.

Taking Xin Lailai himself as an example, in fact, the annihilation ability he now possesses can actually be regarded as a very costly explosive means. The key is that the annihilation energy is actively created by him and Ling Yuzi. It is a means developed based on their own ability system that suits their abilities. Therefore, even if they use it many times, it will not cause any pollution to their power system.

However, using methods such as [Blood Will] to improve is completely different. Using power outside of one's own ability system to exchange for temporary power, no matter how strong that power is, will inevitably have a certain degree of impact on one's existing ability system, just like the ghost bloodline and wild god bloodline he used when he was in the first level. The former will cause one's own attribute upper limit to be unable to exceed 30, and the latter will affect one's own body at the genetic level. It can be said that the costs are greater than each other.

Precisely because of this, after the Black Bullet World, he basically never relied on this method of using forces outside his own system to explode. The only thing he had used was the title of "Limit Breaker" which would not bring any negative effects or ability pollution to himself, and was provided by consuming pre-stored attribute points.

-By the way, although the "Thunder Potion" provided by Yamu looks very similar to those explosive abilities, there is a huge difference.

This can be understood by looking at the description of the attribute enhancement of the Realm Thunder Potion. Unlike those explosive types of methods, the attribute enhancement description of the Realm Thunder Potion is never about how many attributes are increased, but about enhancing the own attributes to the current rank limit. This is because the gain mechanism of the Realm Thunder Potion is not to forcibly expand itself with external forces, but to fill its own gaps with pure world power. After the end, it just burns up this part of the world power. In essence, it is the same principle as the gain method of the "Limit Breaker", and it will not cause any effect on the user even if it is used.

As for the backlash of the world thunder, it was simply the world thunder in the potion that struck it after losing the protective film of the world power. This was why the effectiveness and backlash of the world thunder potion would increase with the increase of elemental affinity. After all, the higher the elemental affinity, the stronger the world thunder power would be. Wouldn't this increase the effectiveness and backlash of the world thunder potion at the same time? Moreover, from his experience in the Black Fourth World, it can be seen that as long as one's own world thunder resistance is high enough, this so-called world thunder backlash can essentially be borne without injury.

This is why Xin Lailai is so fond of the boundary thunder potion provided by Yamu. As long as one's resistance to boundary thunder is trained, this thing is equivalent to a special attack buff against the abyss without any side effects. After using it, not only can one deal boundary thunder damage, but also instantly purify the abyss-type debuff on the body. It is extremely useful in a world eroded by the power of the abyss.

"This thing is the public property of our team. Whoever needs it can use it. How about that?"

After a moment's silence, Xin Lailai looked at the Death Eater and Yamu and spoke.

In terms of practical value, the active effect of [Blood Will] is definitely useless, but its passive effect is very useful to the three of them. Taking into account their current rank and authority, they cannot sell this Overlord-level item to others, and the fact that [Blood Will] is not suitable for long-term wear, the most appropriate approach is to treat this thing as the team's public property, and whoever needs it can use it to maximize the benefits.

"can."

"No problem. After this world ends, our team space will be open."

The Death Bearer and Yamu spoke, all agreeing with Xinlailai's proposal. Xinlailai nodded slightly and threw [Blood Will] directly into the corner of the storage space. Then he looked at the little white saint who stuck her head out of the cockpit. After his eyes stayed on the black knights waiting on the side for a while, he looked at the ruined royal city shrouded in scarlet mist in the distance and said:

"If there's no problem, we're ready to go."

"can."

"OK~!"

A cold reply and a frivolous response were heard, and then Xin Lailai took the initiative to remove the magic barrier surrounding her.

Wow——! !

The strong wind mixed with a strong stench of decay blew directly on the faces of several people. Xin Lailai walked forward calmly, followed by Yamu and the Death Bearer. Then came the cobalt blue mecha that switched to a crab-like shape, and the three tall black knights.

"Brother Yamu." "How many do you want?"

"Three will do." "Okay, go on."

A simple conversation sounded in the whistling wind, and Xin Lailai spoke calmly, then accurately caught the object thrown by Yamu, activated it with magic power, felt the hot breath spreading rapidly in his hand, accurately calculated the time in his mind, and then...

call out--! !

When the countdown reached the last 10 seconds, Xin Lailai took a step forward, made an extremely standard throwing motion, threw the thing in his hand, and then instantly condensed three magic arrows with blunt tips, which accurately hit the three enhanced versions of Apollo that had turned golden red. Amid three sharp sounds of breaking through the air, he watched them rush towards the three directions of the inner city of the royal city at a stable speed of 300m/s.

“Roar!” “Ouch!!”

“Zaaaa——!!”

A golden-red afterimage passed through the air, and almost at the moment when the three Apollos flew over the royal city, roars and growls rang out directly from the royal city. The next second -

boom! ! !
Three earth-shattering explosions overlapped and exploded, covering up all the roars and shouts. Three extremely dazzling golden-red fireballs bloomed from mid-air. The golden-red flames that were strong enough to burn through legendary equipment raged wildly, evaporating the evil spirits in an instant, and those magnificent buildings covered with traces of filth and erosion also melted under the terrifying high temperature, bending and collapsing little by little in the flames.

Waves of heat hit from afar. Xin Lailai stood on the city wall, looking down at the scene in front of him with cold eyes. He calmly mobilized the power of fire elements released by Apollo, and watched quietly as the evil spirits screamed and turned into ashes in the flames.

"go!"

Dozens of seconds later, Xin Lailai sensed the gradually dissipating golden-red flames in the distance, and spoke, then leaped hundreds of meters away. Seeing this, Yamu, the Death Bearer and others behind him did not hesitate and followed Xin Lailai out of the city wall. Following them came the cobalt blue mecha and the black knights who had shrunk into the shape of crabs.

"Roar--!!"

A deafening dragon roar was heard, and a flying dragon ghost not far away noticed the intrusion of several people at the first moment. It flapped its wings that were burning with golden red flames and flew straight towards the direction of several people. Just as it was about to collide with Xin Lailai and his group, a blood-red light suddenly bloomed.

boom!
The Blood Knight in mid-air roared, stepped heavily on the crystal platform under his feet, and turned into a blood-colored meteor, instantly piercing through the flying dragon's body and smashing it into a ruin burning with solar flames. Then a dark color passed by from a distance, following the Blood Knight's steps, and slashed the dragon's head with a knife, beheading it.

Boom——! !

The next second, a heavy landing sound was heard, and the cobalt blue mecha in the form of a crab carrying the Saint Xiaobai did not stop after landing. Eight mechanical limbs and a pair of crab wings were directly ejected, and driven by the thrusters, it rushed towards the tall tower at the end of the street.

“Ruaaaa——!!”

A roar like the tide sounded, and one after another of the foul ghosts that had withstood the Apollo explosion crawled out from both sides of the street. The appearance of the cobalt blue mecha was reflected in their scarlet pupils, and they screamed and rushed towards the cobalt blue mecha in groups.

Zheng——! !

Tangled Blade·Flowing Slash!

Sky Wrath·Ray of Thunder! The clanging sound of swords and knives rang out, and two afterimages, one black and one gold, crossed and rushed past the cobalt blue mecha, leaving an 'X'-shaped cut in the air, splitting all the evil spirits along the way in two.

“LAaaaa——!!”

The next second, a sharp scream was heard, and the nun standing on the back of the cobalt blue mecha in the form of a crab stretched out her arms, and the six pairs of jet-black wings behind her spread out. Thousands of filthy feather arrows rushed out, piercing all the filthy ghosts rushing towards the cobalt blue mecha into sieves and nailing them to the wreckage of the buildings on both sides.

"Roar!!"

Suddenly, a burning dragon head rushed out from the right side of the building in front. Amid the sound of the building collapsing, it turned towards the direction of the cobalt blue mecha, roared, and spit out a dark red dragon breath towards the cobalt blue mecha.

Space replacement!

A light golden light flashed, and Xin Lailai's figure instantly disappeared. Instead, a blood knight holding a blood-red spear appeared. He stood alone in front of the rapidly approaching dragon's breath. He exerted force with his legs, stepped heavily, and threw the blood-red spear in his hand forward.

Peng——! !

Circles of blood-red air exploded, and the dragon breath in front of them, together with the giant dragon blocking the way, all broke through a huge hole with a piercing sonic boom. Looking along the hole, one could see the tall tower at the end of the street shaking heavily, and then slowly collapsed with a deafening roar.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
The earth shook, and in the firelight, several giants over four meters tall holding heavy shields of flesh and blood rushed out, each holding a large shield of flesh and blood, forming a square formation in front of the street, charging towards the direction of Xin Lailai and others. Not only that, dozens of huge bone arrows made of bones broke through the golden-red flames that filled the air, and penetrated from all directions towards the direction of the cobalt blue mecha. At the starting point of these arrow paths, giant filthy ghost soldiers with bat wings on their backs can be seen holding skeleton bows. Their four thick arms work together to quickly pull out their bones and load arrows on the skeleton bows in their hands.

After experiencing the baptism of massive filthy power, the former royal guards have all turned into giant soldiers with physical attributes above 90 points. If it weren't for the three Apolos leading the way, they would have been shot at by thousands of giant archers and filthy ghosts as soon as they stepped into the inner city. In that case, let alone rushing into the palace, it would have been difficult to even rush into the high tower area.

——Fortunately, after being disturbed by Apollo, the remaining imperial guards and evil spirits... no longer pose much of a threat!
Crystal gravity magic, 30 times the gravity!
In mid-air, Xin Lailai was able to sense the arrows rushing towards him from the sky. His mental strength surged and the magic power in his body was consumed crazily, turning into invisible waves, gathering all the gravity above his head and in front of him, and then twisting it in an upward direction.

Om-! !

In an instant, all the shield-holding giant demons in front of the street flew backwards into the sky uncontrollably, and the arrows shot at the cobalt blue mecha all began to deviate and slow down, and finally collided with each other in mid-air like a group of headless flies, flying to both sides without any pattern.

Space replacement!

The space rippled, and Xin Lailai, who had already rushed to the top of the shield-holding giant demons, disappeared again. In his place was the Black Knight, who had purple-red flames rising from his body and looked like a demon from hell, and the black giant sword in his hand that was covered with rust and purple flames.

boom!
The pitch-black giant sword slashed down, and a purple-red slash with a radius of hundreds of meters bloomed in the air, splitting the shield-holding giant demons and the buildings on both sides that were pulled into the air by the gravity spell into two.

The next second, the cobalt blue mecha was seen passing through the wreckage of the evil spirits falling from the sky, and Xin Lailai and others who were responsible for clearing the way also rushed forward together, formed a formation beside the cobalt blue mecha again, and followed the cobalt blue mecha to rush to the end of the street.

Peng——! !

Finally, as the Blood Knight at the front pushed forward with all his strength, blasting away the evil spirits that were blocking the way ahead and the tall tower behind it, the cobalt blue mecha that had rolled into a ball jumped in the air with the help of a magic platform, and passed through the hole blasted by the Blood Knight in the dark blue flame tail sprayed by the thrusters, and slammed heavily into an unusually empty square.

Boom!
There was a heavy sound of landing. Xin Lailai and his group surrounded the cobalt blue mecha in the center, looked up at the scene in the square in front of them, and said nothing.

In the center of the square, a pile of corpses emitting a strong stench was piled there, and a huge figure with four arms and six scarlet compound eyes was lying on the pile of corpses, frantically grabbing the remains of the evil spirits on the ground and stuffing them into his mouth, as if he was completely unaware of the arrival of Xin Lailai and others. On his chest, three pitch-black crystals were embedded there, emitting a strong filthy smell, giving people a strong sense of foreboding.
