Chapter 46: Church of Poison’s Holy Son
At this time, the Church of Poison’s stronghold was filled with smoke. There were no living believers left. Li Cheng did not hesitate and headed toward the second stronghold.
The players who had been following behind him naturally followed. After this battle, they now knew how to gain contribution points.
The morale of the enemies who were defeated by Li Cheng’s troops would instantly drop to zero. Such enemies would only run away and not retaliate. At that time, they would then think of ways to surround them and slowly destroy them.
The players’ current damage was a little like scraping their enemies. However, as long as they could break through their defenses, they would be able to kill the enemies bit by bit. While the number of kills would be very small, they could still earn contribution points and experience points.
Li Cheng would not pay attention to those defeated enemies. He completely looked down on them. Hence, other than earning contribution points, the rest of the players could also pick up the limitless equipment that was dropped by the defeated troops.
Even so, they still felt that they were earning blood when in fact, they were still working for Li Cheng. If Li Cheng went to kill such deserters, it would only waste a large amount of time. Meanwhile, the monsters that the players killed would also earn contribution points for Li Cheng.
As they continued forward, they soon arrived at the second stronghold. Compared to the first stronghold, the second stronghold was a little lacking in terms of manpower. There was only a total of more than 50,000 troops in the second stronghold.
Moreover, it was the most trashy type of level five troops and there was no Boss. Li Cheng did not care about such a stronghold that was not challenging at all. He let Lillian and Luna, the two heroines, handle it themselves.
In less than five minutes, the second stronghold had been cleared by the two heroines. Li Cheng’s eyes were already fixed on the last red dot on the map, the third stronghold!
The army continued to move forward, killing along the way. As the players’ experience points increased, many of the players’ troops were able to clear the surrounding skeletons they encountered on their way. This saved Li Cheng a lot of trouble.
His troops’ experience points were already full. If he continued to clear these monsters, it would only waste his time. His target was the third stronghold!
Li Cheng did not bother about the monsters along the way. He increased his speed and arrived at the third stronghold in a short while.
This last stronghold was obviously much larger than the previous two. The altar was also slightly different. There were countless strange patterns carved on it, giving off a terrifying and strange aura. It made people feel very uncomfortable.
Rumble!
Just as Li Cheng’s troops were about to approach, a dark green energy pillar with a diameter of more than 10 meters suddenly shot into the sky from inside the stronghold. The entire space was illuminated in a dark green color.
At this moment, Luna’s face was filled with worry as she looked at the abnormal situation on the altar. She frowned and said to Li Cheng, “Lord, I have a bad feeling.”
Li Cheng frowned as well. However, since they had already reached this point, how could he retreat?
“Let’s go and take a look.”
Before they went over, he cast Shadow of the Mist and hid his troops inside the fog.
As they slowly approached, Li Cheng saw the situation inside the altar. Countless level eight Poison Priests stood inside, and the number of believers present was roughly around two million.
Li Cheng estimated that the players might not be able to defeat such a large group, not until another month’s time. However, he did not really care about it.
Li Cheng’s gaze landed on the most conspicuous building in the altar. There was a huge statue that was over 40 meters tall. It looked like an old woman holding a walking stick. Who else could it be other than the Goddess of Poison?
The dark green light pillar that was over 10 meters tall was emitted from the walking stick of the statue. It was obvious that these believers of the Church of Poison were conducting some kind of sacrificial activity.
How could they let the enemy proceed as they wished?
Thinking of this, Li Cheng immediately ordered the troops to launch an attack.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh…
Countless arrows pierced through the air. The blue frost crystals illuminated the entire altar, making it abnormally bright. The Heavenly Knights also launched an attack in an instant. The mechanical horse hooves stomped on the floor, making a crisp sound.
The further away they were, the higher the damage dealt by the Heavenly Knights. At this moment, their damage was naturally pulled to the maximum.
In just an instant, the Church of Poison suffered heavy losses. At the same time, the system notification rang in Li Cheng’s ears. He did not care for it at all because all of Li Cheng’s hair was standing on end.
A sharp and terrifying energy shot straight toward Li Cheng. He immediately reacted. A cold feeling spread throughout his entire body. When the energy hit his body, white numbers appeared.
[-0]
[-0]
Li Cheng let out a huge sigh of relief. He naturally had to find the person who attacked him. Following the trajectory of the attack, Li Cheng immediately found the person who attacked him. It was a man who was completely hidden in a dark green robe.
He immediately cast a detection spell and information about this man appeared.
[Poisonous Holy Son Andy (Legendary)]
[Description: one of the 12 priests of the Church of Poison. He’s infamous throughout the continent. Countless temples are placing a bounty on his head. In the Church of Light, his wanted contribution points are in the millions.]
[Grade: Legendary]
[Level: 160]
[HP: 2.6 billion/2.6 billion]
[Physical/magic attack: 13,000,000]
[Defense: 60,000]
[Skills: Poison Domain, Advanced Teleportation Spell, Advanced Concealment, Poison Immunity, God’s Descent, Deadly Poison Finger…]
Seeing this ID, Li Cheng’s eyelids twitched. Sure enough, there was a reason why his hair stood on end earlier. The man in front of him had used Deadly Poison Finger on him.
The Poisonous Holy Son Andy was one of the 12 priests of the Goddess of Poison. He was completely different from those Legendary-grade powerhouses who were activated using drugs. He was a genuine Legendary-grade powerhouse! He was also a Holy Son of the Church of Poison!
Just him alone was enough to defeat hundreds of Legendary-grade players who were activated by potions. His attributes were also ridiculously high. Just his HP alone was as high as 2.6 billion.
The Deadly Poison Finger that Andy used could at least deal over a million in damage.
It had to be said that Andy’s strategy just now was completely correct. As long as he killed Li Cheng, the morale of his troops would be greatly reduced. It would then be countless times easier to deal with him.
This was the same fatal weakness of countless players. Normally, Li Cheng would have been dead for sure, but when he felt danger approaching, he activated his Moon Dance Cloak, and immediately, it took away the damage.
Otherwise, Li Cheng would have already returned to the real world with a black screen…
