Chapter 147: Confrontation
"Damn, what a poor ghost."
After placing the sword and mirror, Sean continued to rummage for a while with a frown, and he groped through Amanda's body with the mage's hand, but did not find a second intact object.
"Forget it, it looks like there's nothing left, but the flesh and blood of this apprentice-level warrior is still a little valuable, just enough for the Abyss Blade to devour."
Kicking away the corpse full of flame scorching marks with a random kick, Sean pulled out the Abyss Blade from his arms, and after using his spiritual power to communicate with it, the dagger in his hand suddenly shot out, directly piercing the corpse on the ground.
The power of the abyss soon descended on the world, and the three men in black and Galil looked at the dagger with a strange aura in horror, and many bad speculations suddenly appeared in their hearts.
A steady stream of blood poured out, spreading along the blood groove to the grip of the Abyssal Blade, and the strange figure suddenly appeared on the ground, and the surging black mist covered the corpse, eroding the traces of Amanda's existence little by little.
"This ...... This thing ......."
Galil in the distance looked at Sean as if he wanted to say something.
"What, do you have an opinion?"
Sean stared back at him with a hint of warning in his gaze.
"If you want to live a long time, you don't care about other people's affairs, you led the enemy to my house before, I haven't settled accounts with you yet, and when Reinado and them come, you have to explain things clearly before leaving."
Although Sean's words are lightly written, the meaning of the message is clear, that is, to settle accounts with him, the "ally" who brought the enemy in, settle the matter and let him leave.
Seeing the other party's attitude, Galil's face was not very good-looking, but when he thought that the other party had saved him before, he didn't have any complaints in his heart.
Besides, this world is the law of the jungle, Sean's strength is strong enough, of course he can do things according to his own wishes, although he Galil is also a trainee, his ability in combat is far worse than the other party.
"I mean, his body could be an important bargaining chip, and the Southern Alliance should pay to redeem it, so it's a bit of a shame to destroy it like this."
Galil hesitated for a moment, but still made his point clear.
"No matter what to do so much, even if they want it, they can't give much money, so it's better to dispose of it directly, and save me from being upset."
Sean pondered for a moment, but shook his head, quietly watching as the Abyssal Blade devoured the corpses on the ground.
Ten minutes had passed since the battle began, and according to his calculations, the enemy or ally who had come to reinforce should be on the way.
Due to a series of actions by Sean, in less than a year, two apprentice-level professionals in the Southern Alliance died in his hands, and this change eased the disadvantage of Reinado's side a little bit, and even faintly fought against the other party.
Now that the truce between the two sides has been completely broken, the situation is really complicated, and Amanda's death may become the fuse for the white-hot fighting, or it may lead to other incidents.
β¦β¦
A faint commotion came from a distance, as if accompanied by the clashing of armor, and as the sound of footsteps approached, groups of heavily armed soldiers with torches emerged from around the corners, encircling the surrounding area.
Several apprentice-level spiritual powers spread to the area where Sean and the others were, and repeatedly swept around Amanda's corpse not far from Sean several times, and when they confirmed the identity of the deceased, these spreading spiritual powers collectively pressed on Sean, as if they wanted to give him a dismount.
"Why, bringing so many people over, seeing the corpses of your companions being destroyed, but they didn't even dare to show their faces one by one, is this the courage of your strong people in the Southern Alliance? It's funny. β
With a sneer, the surface of the Abyssal Blade suddenly glowed red, quite conspicuous in the night.
With the blessing of his mana, the flesh and blood in Amanda's body were completely drained, and all of them were poured into the evil dagger with strange patterns, turning into nourishment for its growth.
He beckoned lightly, and the Abyssal Blade deftly rose from the corpse that had been sucked into skin and bones, and flew into his hand like a bird returning to its nest. (This chapter is not finished!) )
Chapter 147: Confrontation
The same powerful spiritual power burst out from Sean's body, and although he couldn't counterattack the enemy, he still had no problem resisting the suppressive effects that covered him from afar.
Now he was dressed in a black mage robe, his left hand grasped the abyssal blade that trembled like a living thing, and his right hand held the mysterious reincarnation staff, and his eyes looked contemptuously into the distance, as if expressing disdain for the enemy.
But even if he was ridiculed like this by Sean, the enemy didn't seem to be angry, and still hid in the dark without saying a word, just constantly colliding with it with spiritual power.
"What His Excellency Sean said is reasonable, these *** people pretend to be full of confidence on weekdays, and they look like they are not competing with each other for peaceful development, but now they are suddenly making a black hand in the dark, and it seems that they don't even want to face each other."
"The funniest thing is that it was obviously an active sneak attack and siege, but in the case of such an advantage, one was killed on the spot and three were scared away, which is really weak and stupid."
Just as the atmosphere gradually froze, a sneer suddenly sounded in the sky, and Reinado's figure fell from a high place, standing lightly beside Sean.
"Let me count, one, two, three, four......"
"Wow! Four! plus the three over there and the corpse on the ground, there are eight people in total, and it looks like they're basically all together. β
Reinado narrowed his eyes and grabbed the longbow he was carrying behind his back, and instead of taking out any arrows, he pulled the empty bowstring and aimed it at a small alley in the distance.
With the sound of electricity, a long arrow completely formed by thunder condensed on the string, and the power of the violent thunder attribute converged around him, making Sean feel a trace of threat.
"Buzz!"
As Reinaldo let go of his fingers, the thunder arrow flew out in an instant, and the materialized thunder element churned the air into a vortex and headed straight for the depths of the alley.
"Apprentice-level Divine Technique - Palm of the Earth"
A strange chant of incantations rang out in the depths of the alley, and a large hand made of rock suddenly rose from under the ground, its surface with a strange glow that seemed to give it some special properties.
The giant rock grabbed the flying arrow, and when the two came into contact, a violent explosion suddenly sounded in the depths of the alley.
The disintegrating rocks fell to the ground, the wandering electric light scattered in the air, and four professionals with apprentice-level soul fluctuations walked out of the depths of the alley, followed by several nobles with extremely ugly faces.
Most of these nobles were ordinary people, and one or two of them exuded apprentice-level soul fluctuations, and they held several alchemy items containing huge energy tightly in their hands, as if they were very afraid of being attacked by the enemy.
At the front was a midship-level priest who held in his hand a strange scepter, made entirely of rock, with a general outline in shape, and completely devoid of any ornamentation or pattern.
β¦β¦
The Priest is also one of the three caster classes, but it joins the Caster system much later than the Mage and Warlock.
According to the official history provided by the Eye of Judgment, when the legends of all races won the battle of the gods, all the gods were wiped out, all the kingdoms of gods were uprooted, any information related to the faith and practice system was banned, and even the priests were dealt a heavy blow.
You must know that the power of the priests at that time was not small, although on the surface they were called servants of the gods and agents of the will of the gods in the world, but the priests under the hands of those powerful gods had surpassed some weaker gods in their own right, reaching a terrifying level. Error-free updates @
Despite this, the priests were defeated, but the surviving clergy and some of the believers were very flexible in their minds compared to the gods who were completely exterminated.
If you can't beat it, why can't you join it? After all, the professional system claims to be all-encompassing, and of course there will be a place for priests in this.
So, under the leadership of some wise people, the pastors converted to the concept of God, and gradually explored and reformed according to the previous practice system, and finally on the basis of their predecessors, they were fortunate to open up a new path with the same name as priests in the professional system.
Because of the accumulation of a large amount of knowledge and manpower in the old era, this profession was established when the "priest controlled by the gods" was transformed into a "priest in the professional system". (This chapter is not finished!) )
Chapter 147: Confrontation
Carved radiated an unprecedented life, soon giving birth to a large number of legendary priests and becoming one of the four major spellcaster classes of the time.
Professional priests believe in conceptual rather than personal gods, and their philosophy is simple that there is no real god at all, and that it is only when people believe in something that it becomes a god in the hearts of the believers.
In other words, it was the believers who created God by their own power, not God who led people to believe in God by their own power.
God is a concept, the source of power in the pastor's heart, although the power is given by God, but God himself is actually the priest's creation, so their xenoether "God-given power" is actually the priest's own power, and will not be affected by any external object.
To this day, priests are not as numerous as the largest mages, but they are not as rare as warlocks, but the growth of a priest requires systematic cultivation and training, so it is not common in a small place like Teresa City.
Depending on the goal of the faith, there are more factions of priests than rangers, and in addition to the natural priests who believe in all kinds of natural elements and things, even some artificially created concepts and all kinds of inexplicable things are believed in.
For example, the so-called gods of justice, courage, and wisdom are believed, and even more outrageous are the gods of laziness, procrastination, gluttony, ramen, and escape......
The magic commonly used by priests is actually an alternative kind of magic, but it has been slightly modified according to the gods they believe in, so that it is more suitable for their own god-given powers.
Sean learned from some information that the priest at the forefront was a follower of the God of the Earth and the highest-ranking professional in the Southern Alliance, and that he was employed by a certain nobleman in the Southern Alliance, and the professional level was said to be as high as level 17 two years ago.
Of course, if it is really from the perspective of actual combat, Sean is still very confident that he can defeat him, after all, one of the most critical factors in judging a professional's combat effectiveness is the ability to burst instantly, and from this point of view, Sean with the Abyss Blade is definitely at the top level.
β¦β¦
"Cagiso μ· Scott, meet again, don't come unharmed."
Looking over the four apprentice-level professionals in front of him, Reinado cast his gaze on a richly dressed nobleman in the back. _o_m
This nobleman's body exuded apprentice-level spiritual power fluctuations, and although it seemed extremely weak to the apprentice-level professional, it was completely enough to resist the coercion that the other party inadvertently emanated.
"Reinardo Koburn, and Sean Morton ......"
Cagiso's expression was very gloomy at the moment, and he stared at these two guys who always spoiled his own good deeds, and he wanted to tear them apart ten thousand times.
Half a year ago, Awat's apprentice-level professional failed to assassinate Sean, and that action caused him to lose a very important short sword, and he was clearly aware of the unfathomable strength of his opponent.
This lesson was still fresh in his mind during this time, so in the days that followed, he became extremely cautious, not only did he not continue to trouble Sean, but he was even very careful about taking action against others, and after much thought, he made his current plan.
It's a pity that nothing is foolproof in this world.
Because of a leak in intelligence, Galil, who was supposed to die, escaped under the siege of four people and fled all the way to Sean's doorstep, attracting the attention of the mysterious mage.
Normally, this plan should end here, after all, Sean is in his carefully arranged home for a long time, and it is not realistic to defeat or capture him, and even thanks to Sean's protection, Galil can successfully avoid this crisis.
But what they never expected was that Sean's power was far more exaggerated than they imagined.
The nobles of the Southern Alliance originally thought that this alchemy mage had only mastered a special explosive ability with quite high usage conditions and costs, and even if he could kill one person, he would not be able to break the alliance of four apprentice-level professionals.
As a result, Amanda, who made a tentative shot, was directly pressed to the ground and beaten violently by a series of abilities, and the others were too frightened to step forward when they saw Sean looking like a mad dog, which caused Amanda to do it in the first place.

died tragically on the spot, and there was not even a chance to escape. @η²Ύε\/Shuge*First update~~
Of course, the loss of a trainee is a heartache, but it's not this one that really hurts, it's another problem......
