Chapter 548: I Don't Need Allies, First Clash
In the violet-black space, the death messenger in her mature woman form slowly emerged from the dust and smoke, quietly hovering high in the air.
Looking at the slowed-down "Sin" across from her, her expression showed slight surprise.
She was astonished by the strength the other party had displayed.
If she hadn't quickly revealed herself, the hell envoy that hadn't yet successfully hatched and grown would have almost been instantly killed!
It seemed the game's intelligence was correct - this guy's combat power still couldn't be underestimated.
"Afraid?"
The death messenger repeated the word, her brows slightly lowered.
"I don't quite understand why you always have the courage to use these inexplicable words."
"But looking at you now, your condition doesn't seem that great either."
As she spoke, she extended both hands and forcefully pushed forward!The violet-black light screen enveloping Lu Ce's entire body and the battle axe in his hand instantly began violently contracting. Countless tiny transparent violet-black needles immediately all entered Lu Ce's body.
It felt like being pierced by ten thousand arrows.
The purple substance was originally just energy, but the moment it entered his body, it instantly solidified into physical form, destroying every inch of his blood vessels and muscle fibers.
[Chosen of Agony, Agony Value +13!]
The voice echoing in his mind slightly surprised Lu Ce.
This was the highest single Agony Value he had obtained since becoming the Chosen of Agony!
Quite interesting!
His entire body's muscles felt like they were burning. With both hands giving the axe a forceful twist, his power fully erupted.
Most people would find it difficult to exert strength due to injuries and pain, but Lu Ce naturally didn't have this problem.
The previous attack of being pierced by ten thousand arrows had already been the death messenger's energy tilt against Lu Ce from the shadows against the light.
She had thought it would have significant effect.
In fact, it did count as effective.
"Oh, beneath your clothes, you seem to be starting to bleed..."
The death messenger said with a laugh, but soon, He noticed something wrong.
Because the golden mask before Him bore a completely excited smile.
"Excellent!"
"Just like this!"
Pride praised without any pretense, his face covered with wild and unrestrained aura. Simultaneously, the energy around him began to surge madly.
Crack!
Before the death messenger, the violet-black space emitted a crisp cracking sound.
The powerful confinement surrounding them cracked at that moment, and in the next second, exploded with a thunderous roar!
Without any technique or special method, it was purely breaking through with brute force!
"Cough, cough."
The powerful energy backlash sent the death messenger in the sky crashing to the ground, forcing her back several steps.
Taking a deep breath, she looked somewhat enviously at the axe in Lu Ce's hand.
That violent energy backlash had even made His energy unstable.
Bang!
Before her eyes, Pride also landed heavily on the ground, his feet shattering a large rock.
"The broken divine weapon is indeed quite good."
The death messenger looked at the "Sin" across from her and said mockingly, as if saying that without this axe, you'd be just ordinary.
"Someone who made a deal with Agony isn't too afraid of pain, huh? You're not immobilized, are you?"
Theoretically speaking, the death energy just now should have destroyed all of his muscles.
From the sleeves of his golden clothing, blood flowed out like tiny streams.
In the first exchange, it seemed Lu Ce had suffered serious injuries.
But at this moment, Pride completely ignored the thoughts of the person before him. Instead, like someone delirious, he laughed maniacally:
"Heh heh, excellent... excellent, I hope you can maintain this."
"This intensity is basic!"
As he spoke, he twisted the blood-stained axe. Under the nourishment of Pride's blood, the domineering and ferocious appearance of the Extreme Path Battle Axe also gained a somewhat bewitching quality.
Lu Ce's primary need in the game now was still to improve his strength.
That is to say, he needed to overload the mask! At that edge of losing control, he sought power and control over his own feelings.
Pride's choice was Lu Ce's response to this game, but Pride needed overload!
Pride's overload was quite peculiar, as Lu Ce could sense from the previous game.
The stronger the opponent's divine power, the more excited Pride became, and the stronger his power grew.
Therefore, Pride needed pressure, needed the opponent to be strong enough, needed that spirit of facing thousands alone, needed that courage to single-handedly reverse heaven's collapse.
Pride needed to face the strong, overwhelm the strong, needed to be higher than those in higher positions.
If the opponent was weak, then it would be boring.
He was quite satisfied with the previous move.
"You..." Looking at the seemingly deranged state across from her, the death messenger was about to speak when suddenly her vision blurred as a figure had already arrived before her.
Pride's speed at this moment was almost like teleportation. Swinging the Extreme Path Battle Axe in his hand, he chopped toward the death messenger's head without the slightest mercy.
The death messenger completely didn't expect that at such a time when the other party was already injured, wouldn't he need at least some recovery?
It would be good enough if He didn't take the initiative to attack, yet the other party actually charged forward?
Moreover, where did he get this strength? His muscles... shouldn't most be damaged?
There was no time to think. The opponent's incredibly fast speed and powerful battle axe made her instinctively push out her divine power to collide with the other's force.
Like two missiles colliding and exploding together, the explosion then sent both people at the center flying apart.
With the death messenger's unpleasant expression, Lu Ce suddenly said:
"Let me ask you a question."
"You know who I am, right?"
The death messenger didn't understand what he meant.
"So, you dared to accept that challenge and come before me. You must have some reliance that gave you the illusion that you could win, correct?"
Death messenger: ?
To be honest, He didn't really want to speak.
In the previous exchange, wasn't it you who suffered the disadvantage?
"Whether He has illusions or not, I don't know, but I think you'd better prepare yourself!"
Suddenly, an angry roar came from the sky as a massive fireball large enough to cover the entire stadium appeared out of thin air!
The blazing fireball was wrapped in purple flames and descended without pause, Sun making his entrance with a killing move.
In that instant, the entire city experienced an earthquake!
The flames burned for a full minute before slowly dissipating. The entire stadium had completely turned into ruins, clearing a large area.
Simultaneously, Xie Antong and Chiyo Eine also appeared at the edge of the ruins.
"It seems I came at just the right time, catching the beginning of the grand show?"
Xie Antong adjusted the lens before her eyes and said with a smile.
Among those present, three people from the [Demon] faction had appeared, along with a hell envoy stretching in the fierce flames, beginning to transform from the giant egg.
Meanwhile, the only member of the Saint faction, Chiyo Eine, turned into a pool of black water and actually directly disappeared!
In the impact of the flames, both Lu Ce and the death messenger protected themselves with their own power. The death messenger looked mockingly at "Sin."
"It seems your allies don't want to help."
Pride was even more disdainful:
"Those weak and lowly players you spoke of have now become your allies?"
