Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest.

Chapter 302: Blasphemous Demon Tatia

Capturing as many "Adventurers" wandering around late at night as possible and bringing them to the Lost Royal Court is part of Luo Xiu's "Holy Abyss" plan.

He has roughly counted that the number of players who have descended on "Red Maple City" and its vicinity is about six thousand. Under his operation, four thousand people have been gathered by the church, the border court and the Fangbei Courtyard, and there are still nearly two thousand individual players.

A large number of them are unwilling to join the mainstream forces, and want to rely on their own exploration to find the so-called "secrets" of this world - but "God's Destiny" is not a game that truly takes players as the protagonists. If it weren't for the "hidden NPC" like Luo Xiu who is intentionally guiding them, the fact is that players who have not touched the extraordinary will actually find nothing.

After several major events, the training level of most "individual" players was completely crushed, and they fell behind to the fourth or fifth tier.

They are now in a vacillating situation - they are considering whether to follow the crowd and simply join major forces such as the Church, the Border Court or the Fangbei Court, at least they can still grab some benefits; but they are also thinking that they have been scattered for so long, they should look for some hidden forces, there is still a chance to overtake.

Although this is just a "deleted file beta test", the vast majority of players are still playing it with a very serious attitude. After all, the deeper the experience, the more and more core information you have, and the greater the advantage you can have in the real public beta test.

It is in such an environment that this is the best time for "Holy Abyss" to truly appear.

Now, the "Apostles of the Holy Abyss" are still searching the city for the "Adventers". Before heading to the Lost Royal Court as the "Lord of the Holy Abyss", Luo Xiu has to make one final preparation.

……

"You really exceeded my expectations, Luo Xiu~"

Luo Xiu once again heard the silver bell-like voice of the Fallen Angel Tatia:

"The previous 'Ghost Craftsman' and the current 'Adventers', you and your 'Holy Abyss' are really deceiving everyone in Red Maple City..."

"Ah... This is something that can never be seen in the 'Eternal Kingdom'. The great god would never have thought that among his devout 'Apostles of Divine Glory', there would be someone like you~"

"Happy... I am so happy! Luo Xiu!"

"What exactly do you want to do, Luo Xiu?"

"..."

"Sometimes I do wonder, are you really an 'angel'? Tatia?"

Luo Xiu's mouth twitched, and he asked Tatia casually.

This was not a rhetorical question, but a rant and a joke. Then Tatya's bell-like laughter echoed in his ears. She said:
"Fallen angels are also angels."

“...Okay, okay.” Luo Xiu smiled and nodded.

He then raised his right hand, and a handful of golden light flowed out from his palm, and the figure of the "Fallen Angel" Tatya appeared out of nowhere.

He smiled at the contractor opposite him, then looked at Luo Xiu Durant, and asked softly:

"What do you want to do, Luo Xiu?"

"You are a fallen angel with the sin of 'deception', Tatia. You must be enjoying this, deceiving everyone with me."

Looking at the angel opposite him who was emitting pure and flawless light, Luo Xiu spoke calmly, leaning back and leaning against the back of the chair.

"Of course! This joy is unique, Luo Xiu~"

Tatya answered him without hesitation, this was exactly what He really thought in His heart.

"So... are you interested in carrying out this 'deception' more thoroughly?" Luo Xiu asked.

He then pulled out a drawer from the cupboard next to him and took out a brand new scroll.

"To carry out the deception more thoroughly?"

Tatia asked back with interest, her eyes involuntarily falling on the scroll that Luo Xiu had just taken out.

He could already sense that the scroll exuded a very deep aura of taboo.

"You will like it, Tatia." Luo Xiu still kept smiling, he slowly sat up and gradually unfolded the scroll in front of Tatia.

"I hope you become a 'devil'." Luo Xiu said this calmly at the same time.

——Become a "devil"!
When hearing this, even Tatia couldn't help but be stunned.

Then He laughed, and laughed so hard that His branches and limbs shook.

"Luo Xiu, do you know what you are saying? I am an 'angel', and you want me to be a 'devil'?"

Tatya smiled and said:
"This is impossible, Luo Xiu! We are completely opposite to demons. Our blood determines that there is absolutely no possibility of us being compatible. Although I do know how to disguise myself as a demon, I can never truly become one."

"Although I do enjoy the pleasure of 'deception', Luo Xiu, I don't like being deceived. I can forgive you this time, but don't do it again next time~"

"No, that's not necessarily true, Tatya." Luo Xiu looked serious.

Realizing that Luo Xiu seemed serious, Tatia's bell-like laughter gradually subsided, and a solemn expression appeared on her face.

"Are you serious? Luo Xiu?"

"of course it's true."

Luo Xiu shrugged, "I have a way to turn you into a 'devil'. It won't make you lose your 'angel' blood and divinity. It's just a temporary transformation."

"You are the 'angel' who has made a contract with me, Tatia, so I need to ask for your opinion - you have the identity of a 'demon', which is more convenient for me."

As he spoke, a new ball of bright golden light appeared in Luo Xiu's palm, and he summoned the "Golden Pegasus" in another open space in the room.

Then, the ball of golden light in his palm suddenly emitted deep purple spiritual threads, and the golden holy flame on Pegasus' body began to sway, and its color gradually turned purple, emitting bursts of deep aura belonging to "Dark Eclipse".

Under Tatia's gaze, the "Golden Pegasus" has transformed into the "Ghost Pegasus"!
"This is my ability, Tatia." Luo Xiu smiled and said:

"You can feel the transformation of the essence of Pegasus, the sacred beast, right, Tatia? That is the aura of the real Abyss Beast."

"Similarly, I can also make the 'Abyss Beast' become a 'Holy Beast'. They are essentially the same ability."

"Now, do you believe me, Tatya? The scroll in front of you contains exactly this taboo."

"..."

Following Luo Xiu's words, Tatia's gaze once again fell on the scroll on the table.

"...Unbelievable, Luo Xiu."

Tatia's eyes sparkled with excitement, and she said, "This is crazy, this is crazy..."

"You can really do such a thing, Luo Xiu... So, how do you want to make me a 'devil'?"

He agreed... Luo Xiu breathed a sigh of relief. He had already understood this from Tatya's words.

He was planning to have the "fallen angel" Tatia accept the identity of "devil" and then teleport her to the Lost Royal Court. That way, he could summon her openly and show his full combat power as the "Lord of the Holy Abyss" to all the players in the Royal Court!

Except for the "False Guardian" Amber, all his contracted beasts or gods of [Glory] or [Abyss] should have a set of "skins" that are suitable for each other. This is also a plan that Luo Xiu had thought of a long time ago.

As for the scroll placed on the table and shown to the "Fallen Angel" Tatia, it was prepared through "Self-Created Skills" before summoning Tatia. It was a semi-finished scroll engraved with the [Glory] skill "Angel Divine Contract" combined with the [Abyss] skills "Abyss Inscription", "Demon Insight" and "Dark Affinity".

It has the same ability as the "Holy Flame Wolf", "Burning Feather Raven" and "Netherworld Pegasus", and can transform an angel of [Glory] into a demon of [Abyss], but there is still one last step to complete.

——That requires the "fallen angel" Tatia to personally infuse it with her divine spirit as an "angel" to form the final resonance with the darkest spirit in the scroll! "Touch this scroll, Tatia, and infuse it with your holy spirit."

Luo Xiu smiled and said, "After that, it will be truly completed. You can appear in the Holy Abyss as a 'demon' without any taboos, without worrying about someone outside knowing your identity."

"Well, Tatya? Touch it if you like."

"..."

"Really, this is blasphemous, Luo Xiu."

Tatya said faintly.

Then, a joyful, brilliant smile burst out from His golden eyes——

"But I like it~"

His tall figure, half suspended in the air, slowly floated down, and he stretched out his slender, flawless arms like a white snake, and touched the scroll.

First, golden light patterns appeared one after another on the surface of the scroll. The rippling golden light was quickly permeated and assimilated by the deep purple spirituality, and finally seeped into the depths of the scroll and became a part of it.

The heterogeneous patterns that had already formed on it suddenly began to flow again, competing for and integrating the spirituality released by Tatya, and the profound aura within it was rising steadily.

Buzz! The light pattern on the scroll surface vibrated violently, but soon returned to calm and froze in a new shape.

Afterwards, in Luo Xiu's skill column, [Abyss] had a new skill.

——【The Blasphemous Demon Tatia】!
[Obtain: Blasphemous Demon Tatia (Abyss, lv.1)]

[Mana consumption: 202/min, cooling time: 30min]

[Demon of Blasphemy Tatya (Abyss, lv.1): The holy angel finally fell from heaven. He fell into the cradle of the Styx, and his wings were stained with the color of blasphemy.]

[When using the skill "Demon of Blasphemy·Tatya", the summoning of "Winged Angel·Tatya" is replaced with the summoning of "Demon of Blasphemy·Tatya", and the third level of "Dark Blasphemy" ability is obtained.

"Profane Demon" is a special type of demon, and its current status is: Ancient Spirit·Higher Demon]

[Forbidden Wings (Status Effect): "Devil of Blasphemy · Tatia" will retain the authority of the gods and retain the inherent skills, but all inherent skills will be forced to activate the "Fallen Angel's Reversal" effect. The damage caused by Devil of Blasphemy · Tatia is always "Dark Eclipse" attribute damage, and has a 20% "Dark Eclipse" attribute penetration that ignores defense reduction. 】

[Dark Blasphemy (Status Effect): When the target attacked by the Blasphemy Demon Tatia uses his First Destiny or Origin skill, a layer of "Dark Blasphemy" is consumed, reducing its damage and effect by 50%, and the caster will bear 50% of the skill damage or negative effect (positive effect will be reversed to negative effect), which lasts until the three skills are completed.]

【…】

After quickly browsing the content of the skill, Luo Xiu closed the panel, looked up at Tatia, and said with a smile:

"You are the demon of blasphemy, Tatia. I thought you would be the demon of lust or seduction."

"Do you feel sorry that I failed to become a succubus, Luo Xiu?"

Tatya smiled and said, "Let me see what my 'devil' looks like?"

Luo Xiu did not answer Him again. He just raised his hand with a smile on his face, and a ball of deep purple light appeared in his palm.

The change happened to the "fallen angel" Tatya at the same time.

Tatia's sacred wings that radiated pure light gradually lost their original luster under the influence of the abyss, and were stained with a color that seemed to sink by the "dark erosion" of the spirituality;
His originally pure white feather tips now seemed to carry the depth and sin of the Abyss, becoming heavy and dark.

Tatia's long hair that flowed like a waterfall gradually turned dark black, and His eyes - the pupils that originally sparkled with a sacred golden light, were now gradually replaced by deep darkness.

His face was still beautiful, but within that beauty there was an indescribable coldness and alienation.

The long battle skirt on His body was woven with spiritual threads and turned into a long evening gown that was as bright as the evening sky; and His body - the flawless body of an "angel" that was once sacred and inviolable, now exuded a deep, dark aura that did not belong to her.

"Ah... this kind of change will really... happen to me..."

Tatya whispered.

Luo Xiu looked at Him, and from His body, which was once the incarnation of holiness, he could now sense a rich and profound aura that did not belong to Him.

His posture was still elegant, but every movement revealed a kind of charm and danger that did not belong to an angel.

He slowly spread his wings, which were more like a dark shadow spreading across the night sky, making people feel a deep fear.

A profound transformation had taken place in Him.

"How do you feel?" Luo Xiu looked at Tatia and smiled at her, "There is a mirror there, Tatia."

Compared to before, "He" seemed to have become a completely different person. It was impossible to sense any shadow of the "Double-Winged Angel" from the current "Demon of Blasphemy".

"...I felt like my body was burning like fire," Tatia said.

"An ancient, deep power flows in my body... It's not my power, but I feel like I have possessed it for a long time."

As he spoke, he slowly floated in front of the mirror and "admired" his appearance after becoming a demon.

It was still a very beautiful, flawless image.

"Is this really... me?"

Looking at herself in the mirror, her eyes had become dark and the pure golden light surrounding her had turned into a dark purple color. Tatia opened her mouth slightly.

He slowly raised his arm covered with black gauze and opened his palm. A ball of deep flame floated on it without wind.

"Are you satisfied, Tatya?" Luo Xiu's voice came from behind her.

She did not answer, and the dark purple threads lingering on her body began to fade away slowly. The sacred golden light returned to Her body, and She returned to the form of a "two-winged angel".

"It's a wonderful experience, Luo Xiu..."

After turning back into an angel, Tatia had a happy smile on her face.

This time, He truly felt the ultimate joy in body and mind - the means to transform from an "angel" to a "devil", this "deception" even touched the root, making Tatia, who regarded this as a sin of depravity, unable to stop.

"So, Tatya..."

Seeing that Tatia was satisfied, Luo Xiu smiled and said:

"It's time to go to the Holy Abyss, Tatya. There are guests waiting for us."

Through discussions in the [Player Forum] and chat channels, Luo Xiu knew that his apostles from the Holy Abyss had brought in hundreds of players.

"Now it's time for the master to take the stage."

Luo Xiu said this while raising his arms.

The marks of a sword and a dragon claw appeared on the back of his hand, followed by flashes of crimson light.
