Chapter 083 Nothing can last forever, including God
As the strong wind that had been blowing for more than 20 hours gradually subsided, the heavy rain that had lasted for an unknown period of time on the Alda plane finally showed signs of weakening.
Stretching out his hand and letting the fine mist-like water droplets fall on his palm, Alvin looked up at the thick dark clouds in the sky that had never dispersed, and couldn't help feeling a little emotional.
"The human beings here have always devoutly believed in Araya, the God of Light, and regarded the goddess as supremely sacred.
However, now, in this underworld of death, there is only eternal night. This is really...ironic!"
[Night Hunter] This system skill will not be fake.
Since for so long, as long as Ivan comes to the Alda plane, it will bless him with powerful dark power, which undoubtedly means that there has always been "night" here and there has never been "day".
Maybe... there will never be daylight again...
Ivan, who rejected the principal's proposal and made a special trip to chat with Mu Feng about the national competition in the evening, slowly raised his head with emotion and looked at the magnificent collapsed building in front of him through the brim of his poncho.
Based on the description in the girl count's notes and the nine-pointed star holy emblem that can be seen vaguely here and there, it can be inferred that this ruins should have been a temple of the God of Light.
Through the stones and towering altars that are still as white as jade after an unknown period of time, we can vaguely see how prosperous this place once was and how many believers worshiped here devoutly.
But now... this place is filled with the terrifying power of death.
Within Ivan's sight, a massive amount of death power roared and raged among the ruins, and there were many powerful undead individuals secretly hidden deep in the ruins.
If this deathly underworld is a large wild monster map, then the ruins in front of you can definitely be regarded as a highly difficult copy.
He just sent Shadow 004 to go inside and walk around, and found that there were indeed a large number of powerful skeletons gathered inside, and there were even many elite-level beings.
Sharing the previously explored situation with other system soldiers, Ivan turned to look at the two skeleton mages.
"What do you think?"
Compared with other giant spiders, stone statues, and empty heads, the two masters are more reliable as think tanks.
The flames in Held's eyes jumped a few times and he replied:
"Master, relying solely on our existing personnel, it seems difficult to clear out the resurrected skeletons inside without damaging them. Moreover, if they are not cleared out at once, it will easily cause chain reactions in other areas."
The meaning is obvious. Although a group of system soldiers are very strong, there are so many monsters inside that they can't stand it!
In a normal dungeon in the game, there will be five or six monsters in a bunch, which is quite exaggerated.
As a result, in this ruins, there were more than two hundred skeletons huddled together in the open space in the front hall alone, and among them were some elite types who had obviously practiced physical training to a very high level during their lifetimes.
Moreover, even if they are ordinary skeletons, the ones in the ruins are different from the skeletons converted from civilians and ordinary guards outside. Most of them are well-equipped and have different types of soldiers.
There are warriors wearing full armor and holding swords, soldiers holding spears, and even organized skeleton archers.
The skeleton mage even suspected that the skeletons inside were a complete elite temple guard.
In addition to these, Shadow also discovered two relatively complete skeletons in the ruins of the main hall at the rear, with fragments of cloth remaining on their bodies. They were suspected to be clergy during their lifetimes.
The reason why I say special is because they are the first batch of native spellcasters that Ivan has discovered since he explored the Alda plane!
From two female skeletons with relatively slender bones, 004 felt extremely active death energy.
With the help of 004's transfer, Ivan even vaguely felt the faint fluctuations of will in the two spellcaster skeletons, and it was suspected that a certain degree of instinct in life remained.
Facing such an enemy that is obviously completely different from the past, it is obviously not an easy thing to win.
So Ivan looked around at the system soldiers and asked Held again.
"If we double the number of troops on our side, can the victory rate be improved?"
The chief skeleton mage silently deduced it, communicated with Jellief for a while, and finally replied to Alvin.
"It should be okay."
After receiving Held's answer, Alvin pondered for a moment, and then took a look at his "deposits."
After playing "Unparalleled Mowing" before, plus the mutant monsters occasionally killed by Jerif while wandering around, and little Alvin's hard mining efforts, he has now accumulated a total of 25656.7 gold coins and 25 wood points.
The capital is quite abundant, so...
【Elite Skeleton Warrior】?Buy!
【Elite Skeleton Mage】?Buy!
【Crypt Demon】?Buy!
【Gargoyle】?Buy, buy, buy!
Except for the shadows that have not yet cooled down and are not helpful in the battle, Ivan bought all the existing system soldiers in the mall.
Following the summons, four new figures appeared in front of him instantly.
Skeleton Warrior—No. 2!
Skeleton Mage—Montage!
Cryptodemon—Quack!
Gargoyle - Black Stone!
The new system soldiers made their debut. In this way, after removing a few shadows, the "six-person wasteland pioneer group" headed by Ivan instantly turned into a "ten-person dungeon group".
Briefly understand the situation of the newcomers and let them join the team. The next step is the preparation work before opening the book.
Jelliff kindly distributed the submachine guns, heavy machine guns, landmines, body armor and other items he obtained from Western countries to others.
As the front row human shield, Skeleton Warrior No. 1 and No. 2 suddenly changed their style. They put on body armor, hung a row of grenades on their waists, a sword in one hand, and a heavy machine gun in the other, transforming into a skeletal version of "Rambo" in seconds.
The noble mages naturally disdain to choose such rude equipment. The skeleton mages headed by Held picked up an RPG each and planned to try this "artificial pyrotechnic" made by humans in the main world using "technological alchemy".
Is it easy to use?
This thing is almost ruined in the war-torn areas of the west.
Even though it was inconvenient for Jerry to expose himself easily, he still obtained four second-hand launchers and more than 20 rounds of special ammunition through the existing channels of the Twilight Church.
Although it is not much, it is definitely enough to clean the church vestibule.
As for the Crypt Demon, although it cannot use these human weapons due to innate conditions, it has put on a set of special "battle armor" of the same type as the main battle tank, and its defense power has been greatly improved. There are two iron walls at that station.
.
Even the shadows No. 001 to 004 use power similar to telekinesis. One ghost dual-wields two submachine guns to provide firepower resources for the battle.
It is estimated that the only human beings who are completely unable to use these are the miserable gargoyles.
The most that Blood Mist and Black Stone can do is tie some grenades to their legs and add some high-altitude bombing when the fixed-point energy blade attacks in the sky.
Of course, this also means that the two gargoyles have to start the group first.
Otherwise, in the melee, Ivan, who was very confident about his luck, would be really afraid that something falling from his head would blow him up.
While the system soldiers were fully armed, Ivan was also adjusting his equipment column.
In this battle he positioned himself as "commander" and "auxiliary".
Therefore, [Attack Claw], [Shadow Cloak], [Power Gloves] and other equipment were unloaded into the storage box. The last thing left was [Human Infantry Armor], [Mysterious Rune Greatsword], and two [Noblesmen]
Ring] and the [Healing Scroll] and [Medical Guard] that were accidentally purchased in the [Mysterious Treasure Pavilion].
[Healing Scroll]: It can restore a certain amount of health to nearby own/friendly non-mechanical units and can be used once.
[Healing Guard]: Creates a Healing Guard Totem on the designated target, which continuously restores the health of own/friendly non-mechanical units around the Guard Totem, lasting 20 seconds. Number of uses: three/three times.
Unlike those potions that can only be used by Ivan himself, these two new consumable props are undoubtedly real good things. They can restore the injuries of the system's soldiers in a wide range.
What's more important is that after using the former, it will heal all targets in a large area with Aiwen as the center, and the totem summoned by the latter will also appear in the outside world!
This means that once a relative or friend around someone is seriously injured, they can use these two system props to save their lives!
But for now, he doesn't need to worry about the inexplicable large-scale serious injuries of people around him, so he can use it with confidence. At most, he only needs to give it one or two chances to use it. After all, he can buy it again in the future.
The probability of finding consumables in [Mysterious Treasure Pavilion] is quite high. As long as you have it once, it shouldn’t be difficult to encounter it again in the future... right?
