1060 Soul of Glory

Clang!

The blacksmith swung the flaming hammer, shattering a set of armor around him, and his body, covered with a layer of flames, began to press towards Lin Chi.

As the blacksmith stepped forward again, several sets of armor around him exploded, creating a choking smoke that obscured Lin Chi's vision.

Realizing that the other party wanted to engage in a white-knuckle battle with him, Lin Chi kicked away the scorched corpse in front of him, turned around and rushed to the corner of this cruel workshop, and several tongues of fire attacked behind him, almost turning his body into ashes.

- Don't have any props available?

While dodging the blacksmith's pursuit, Lin Chi's gaze quickly swept over the corner of the workshop, looking for a weapon that could be used.

In his experience, most of the boss fights in War Paradise seem difficult, but in fact, as long as you master the correct play, the difficulty will drop a lot. Even in this virtual world, which is suspected to have been created by artificial intelligence, the monsters who have been given the status of the boss can still find obvious weaknesses just like in other games.

Since this door can be opened with the badge of the apprentice angel, the minimum unlock permission of this boss should be "apprentice angel", which is to say, he who is in the state of apprentice angel should not have no chance of winning, but he has not found the right way to fight for the time being.

Rumble!

The flames in the workshop became more and more intense, scorching Lin Chi's skin, and the pain isolation made him feel no pain, but under the burning of the high temperature, his eyesight was still rapidly declining.

"Don't run, kid!"

The blacksmith's wild laughter broke through the smoke behind him, and Lin Chi, who was originally planning to run towards the corner, suddenly noticed that a glimmer of light flashed in the incinerator that the charred corpses had crawled out, as if something made of metal had fallen inside.

Could it be ......

Lin Chi changed direction and rushed over, bent down and directly put his left hand into the incinerator full of black residue, grabbed a key that was slightly red from the scorching, and put the thing into the armor's waist bag.

Just as he was about to stand up, the strong wind of high temperature had already hit from behind, Lin Chi rolled forward directly, and the red hammer fell on the metal wall above the incinerator, making a long loud noise, which shook Lin Chi and lost his hearing for a short time.

The jaws of the burning skeleton were closing one by one, the blacksmith seemed to be saying something, Lin Chi, who had obtained the key, rolled forward again, and the heavy hammer fell where he was just now, and the scorching shock wave swept in, covering Lin Chi's body again.

- This kind of combat mode of dodging skills by rolling, have you seen it in any game before?

Finally avoiding a few of the blacksmith's nirvana attacks, Lin Chi stood up and circled the blacksmith in the workshop, looking for something that could be unlocked with a key.

With his current small body, he can't stop the blacksmith's hammer at all, and every attack of the other party is fatal, and he will die if he takes a hit.

Curiously, the blacksmith did not exert all his strength. As if enjoying the battle, he continued to stride forward, his charred hands clutching the hammer that dripped with molten iron, and the two "ghost fires" in the skull, which continued to shake with the hot wind.

“……”

Witnessing Lin Chi's escape, the blacksmith seemed to remember something, stopped in place and bent down, covered his long-lost face with his left hand, and said something slurred.

At this time, Lin Chi's hearing finally began to recover, and he finally heard the blacksmith's whisper:

"Rebels, rebels...... He who. Why resist? It's going to end up like this anyway......"

"They killed all my apprentices, made me watch my family being skinned and cramped and thrown into the incinerator, told me...... Why did the craftsmen who had been serving the temple all the time get this ending? ”

"You think you can be freed from this fate, but that's completely impossible. You'll only ...... ...... same as me"

The destroyed brain suddenly returned to normal at this moment, and the blacksmith lowered his head to stare at the blackened floor beneath his feet, temporarily halting all movements. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Chi, who finally got a chance to breathe, dodged the flames that erupted while looking for anything that was locked.

It seems that the temple did not completely control the blacksmith, and it was precisely because of this that the blacksmith needed to "vent the fire" with sacrifices from time to time. Witnessing the escape of the sacrifices, the blacksmith must have remembered his previous rebellion against the temple before temporarily stopping his attack.

However, Lin Chi also knows very well that this kind of "rest time" should not last too long. Otherwise, the other sacrifices will also take the opportunity to escape, and they will not be killed here by the blacksmith.

As for whether you can defeat this boss, it depends on whether you can use this time to find key items!

"Ah...... Ah......h

The blacksmith shook his head vigorously, and once again raised the hammer, which had just been put down, as if he had regained his "senses", and laughed again:

"Shall we continue? Cutie. ”

As Lin Chi expected, the short truce ended immediately, and the "Fire Man" carrying the sledgehammer walked towards him again, and the terrifying thing was that this time his speed was faster.

Knock, knock, knock!

The blacksmith's pace changed from walking to running, and the previous confusion seemed to be completely burned away, and he entered the real form of war. At this time, Lin Chi also found what he needed from the other side of the workshop.

- A metal safe with a brown shell, leaning alone against the corner of the workshop, looking inconspicuous. Lin Chi tried his best to rush to the front of the square metal box as fast as he could, and inserted the key he had just gotten into the lock hole and twisted it.

With a "click", the originally tightly knit metal door opened outward, Lin Chi pulled open the cabinet door forcefully, reached out and took out the things stored in the cabinet, and didn't have time to see what he had gotten, so he used the "Tumbling Dafa" again.

Bang!

The heavy swing of the war hammer smashed the safe, and the blacksmith stomped sideways beside Lin Chi, and when he saw what Lin Chi was holding, he wailed frantically again:

"Put ...... That one...... Give me! ”

Lin Chi looked down at the thing in his hand, and what caught his eye was not a weapon, but a rusted pendant stained with coagulated blood, even though it was rusty, the heart-shaped ornament on the pendant was still clearly visible.

- Is this an important souvenir for the blacksmith?

Realizing this, Lin Chi rushed to the furnace in the center of the workshop in three steps and two steps, his right hand holding the pendant was raised directly above the furnace, and the eyes exposed on his helmet were bent up, revealing a hideous smile.

Although unable to speak, it was already obvious what he was going to do:

"Don't move, or I'll throw this thing in."

The silent threat sensed in his mind made the blacksmith put down the hammer again, and the two fires in his eyes kept flickering, and even his voice became "gentle":

"Don't destroy it, please don't do it. That's ......"

Lin Chi shook his head, shook the pendant in his hand, and his right hand, which was scorched by the high temperature steam, began to lose sensation other than pain.

- This alone can only temporarily win a little respite for yourself, and cannot solve the problem fundamentally. Now I still haven't been able to get the weapons and equipment available, and if I miss a little, I will die under the blacksmith's surprise attack!

Lin Chi knew very well that the blacksmith could not surrender sincerely, and he was definitely looking for an opportunity to kill himself and snatch the pendant. If you don't find a solution before the blacksmith loses patience, you'll be done.

"Hiss ......"

The piece of armor that was pressed into the blacksmith's chest was already completely fixed on him at this time, looking at the muscle monster with dozens of pieces of armor installed on his body, Lin Chi glanced at the armor rack next to the furnace with the corner of his eye, and two metal plates that were burned red, which were displayed on the armor rack at this time.

- Could this thing be a necessary item for the Raiders boss battle?

After looking around in the workshop, Lin Chi, who had not found anything except the pendant, suddenly realized that the key to this battle might be in the freshly melted armor next to the furnace.

At the beginning of the battle, the blacksmith also grabbed a piece of armor and stuck it to his chest, although the visual effect is extremely cruel, but the blacksmith's actions may not be pure self-harm, but to improve his combat effectiveness.

Judging from the introduction of the story of the boss battle, the blacksmith was transformed into a "machine" by the temple that kept casting armor, and since the temple did not hesitate to let him continue to cast armor to this extent, these armors he forged should not be useless and defective.

So now......

Lin Chi stretched out his left hand with a light metal glove and grabbed the metal plate beside him.

Under the effect of pain isolation, he did not feel any pain...... It stands to reason that this should be the case, but the moment it touched the armor, the burning sensation of the brain still caused a slight discomfort in the brain.

Unlike the Blood Blade, Lin Chi was not used to this kind of thing, but now he didn't care so much, he grabbed the metal plate with his left hand, learned the action made by the blacksmith just now, and forcefully buckled the metal plate on his chest.

The trainee angel's light armor was dissolved almost instantly, and a brutal heat erupted from his chest, and the sudden death system, which should have been triggered immediately, failed to activate under the effect of the pain isolation skill.

A strong feeling of powerlessness flowed from his chest all over his body, Lin Chi's legs were weak and he almost fell to the ground, and his physical attributes in the attribute bar dropped rapidly, from twenty-five to seven, and then ......

The surging power erupted from within him.

The high temperature of thousands of degrees seemed to arouse the hot blood hidden in the body, and the attribute value that had just dropped skyrocketed again, and the strength, agility, and endurance all broke through the forty-point mark, and finally froze at forty-two points.

The dark red armor plate on his chest began to cool, and thick white smoke came out, Lin Chi stood in place silently, and two new buffs suddenly appeared in the status bar:

Soul of Glory:

Burning Intent grows within you, increasing your fighting skills and increasing all stats by 10 points, which lasts forever in the game.

Burning Blood:

Your blood is boiling and your power has broken through the level of the Angel Trainee, and now you can reach areas that were previously inaccessible and open up new dialogue options.

"Hah, is that so......"

Lin Chi opened his mouth, and he, who had lost his ability to speak, actually made a sound again.

After using this piece of armor, he finally understood why the Templars valued the blacksmith so much, even if they kept offering sacrifices, they would leave behind this monster that often got out of control.

"Thank you."

Lin Chi smiled, and under the blacksmith's gaze, his right hand holding the pendant suddenly loosened, and threw the souvenir in front of the blacksmith. He lifted a black iron sword leaning against the furnace, and waved the weapon, which was also forged by a blacksmith, and made a whirring sound of breaking wind.

After breaking through to a new level of combat power, Lin Chi didn't plan to continue to threaten the blacksmith with this thing. Despicable means were nothing more than expediency, and now that he had the strength to fight, he decisively chose to face off with the blacksmith.

Under the effect of the "Soul of Glory", he can be described as enthusiastic at the moment, and the original male duck voice has become an impassioned male voice, which sounds quite charming:

"How long are you going to keep me waiting?" Lin Chi said impatiently.

Hearing the enemy's words, the blacksmith, who was still crouching on the ground, finally put away the pendant, grabbed the hammer and stood up, and the flames on the skull became even more intense:

"You...... It's not the same as the crumbs that run around. But I must, kill you. ”

"Come on, stop talking nonsense." Lin Chi shook the black iron long sword in his hand.

He had been running away all along, but at this moment he finally regained the initiative again and started his first active attack in this boss battle!

The still smoking body suddenly accelerated, turning into a pale afterimage and rushing towards the blacksmith. The blacksmith also raised his hammer and hurriedly responded, and the first encounter between the two created a spherical shock wave in the workshop, blowing away the flames within a radius of twenty meters.

- The real battle begins!

Swinging his sword and slashing at the armor plate behind the blacksmith, Lin Chi, whose hands were numb from the shock, laughed wildly, and the burning "blood" in his body made him feel like a different person, and he entered a crazy war form with the blacksmith!

Slashing, stabbing, blocking, dodging, Lin Chi's already perfect melee skills have been perfected under the skill bonus. Although the blacksmith was still swinging his hammer, he couldn't even hit the shadow of the enemy, and he was just blindly beaten passively.

The black iron blade slashed through the gap between the two pieces of armor, creating visible scars on the blacksmith's body for the first time, and the muscular hunk with fire all over his body roared, swinging the war hammer and rotating it three hundred and sixty degrees, using the signature stunt of the warrior profession - Whirlwind Slash, blasting towards Lin Chi's body!

Retreating back ten meters away, avoiding the blacksmith who was spinning wildly, Lin Chi bent down slightly, his center of gravity shifted downward, and he was ready to attack, as if he was a predator staring at his prey.

In the brutal white-knuckle battle, the voice of an oracle sounded from Lin Chi's consciousness:

- Kill him.

You are a warrior of the Temple, and you are supposed to give everything you have to the Temple.

- Slaughter all enemies, destroy all invaders, and the glory belongs to the temple forever!
