Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest.

Chapter 369 The Final Victory

Musette is dead.

His mountain-like, bleeding body lay there, his head tilted to one side, and all the light in his eyes had gone.

This scene happened to be seen by "Thunder General" Albert, "Silver Blood Dragonborn" Quilton, and "Crow of Despair" Astralis, and they all had very strange expressions on their faces.

——Musette is dead!

The giant executioner, "Storm Lord" Muset died just like that, and the president of the attacking dark army died just like that!

When seeing this scene, Albert couldn't help but be cheered up!
Opposite him, the "Silver-blooded Dragonborn" Quilton, who was struggling with Albert's "spiritual body", had an expression of mixed panic, anger and fear on his face.

"Storm Lord" Muset is the strongest among their three executioners.

But he was the first to die on the battlefield, which means... the situation of this war will completely change from now on!

In addition to being shocked and angry, Quilton's mind raced -

But the current critical situation did not allow him to think further.

As he was struggling with Albert's "spiritual body", he immediately felt two wolf-like gazes coming towards him!

A red mist of light surged up, and the strong hostility had locked onto him, forcing Quilton to keep a close eye on Albert while maintaining confrontation with the "spiritual body".

"General Thunder", who had been holding the line not far away and waiting for an opportunity to recover, had already begun to stir, ready to attack together with the "spiritual body" at any time.

Quilton knew that

There is not much time left for him.

……

the other side.

Astralis, the "Crow of Despair", also witnessed the entire process of the death of Muset, the "Storm Lord", in battle.

He actually tried to rescue his fellow executioners several times, but was stopped by the entangled angels and holy beasts.

Before that, he was once watched by Luo Xiu's [Soul-stealing Holy Eyes] -

Astralis, whose attributes of "divinity", "perception" and "resistance" are all lower than those of Luo Xiu, most of his skills were sealed and most of his spirituality was lost in an instant.

By the time he recovered, it was already past the best time to rescue Muset. Muset was already seriously injured and was not far from death.

He could only watch the tragic process from afar - not only that, Astralis' own situation was not optimistic.

Since Astralis recovered, the "holy beasts" that Tatia and the other Rosh had contracted have surrounded him, and Astralis was forced to engage in a fierce battle with the winged angel.

He released several mystical spells of weakening and cursing the "spirit" of [Glorious], and stirred up the gray mist of the [Nothingness] "Crow of Despair" that contained the breath of despair, trying to defeat Him with despair.

But soon, Astralis realized something was wrong.

Even in the gray fog of despair, the pure white and golden light emitted by the [Glorious] winged angel did not dim, but became even brighter!
A smile appeared on His face—a smile of enjoyment, pleasure, and even a hint of teasing.

——He is not affected by "despair"? !
This made Astralis a little flustered.

He obviously didn't know the value of the "Fallen Angel". He just stared at everything he saw with his eyes wide open in disbelief.

The angel was shrouded in a gray fog of despair, but to Astralis, it felt more like he was bathing in the fog and greedily sucking on something.

Tatia did not make a move, but just looked at Astralis with a smile, and the surging aura emanating from his body was also rising as the "bath" time got longer!
The other "holy beasts" that surrounded Tatia suddenly pounced on Astralis at the same time and launched an intensive attack on him.

Astralis, he suddenly became a little embarrassed.

And even if Astraeus is stupid——

He also quickly understood that as a believer of "Nothingness", the series of weakening and debuffing secrets he mastered were "food" for the angel in front of him. The more he wanted "despair" to devour Him, the stronger He would become!

"..."

Can't fight anymore...

This time, Astralis, the "Crow of Despair", felt despair from the bottom of his heart.

He has begun to think about quitting.

This feeling of despair reached its peak at the moment when "Storm Lord" Muset was actually killed in battle.

He felt that the gaze of "Bishop" Ross Carlos, who was not far away, had swept towards him!
——Buzz!!!

Just as he noticed that the "Bishop" not far away had made eye contact with him, the air around Astralis suddenly shook violently!

The golden mist filled the air immediately, and Astraston felt his spirituality suffocate for a moment. The "bishop" of the Red Maple City Church, Ross Carlos, once again emitted bright golden light in his eyes!

——Once again [Soul-Captivating Holy Eyes]!
Astralis, his ability as the [Nothingness] "Crow of Despair" was once again mostly sealed. The gray light on the cane he held tightly in his left hand changed, but it always shattered at the moment when it was about to condense!

"What kind of ability is that..."

"What on earth did he...what on earth did he do!?"

Astralis murmured with his eyes bulging.

The expression on his face had become ferocious. Under the "crying" mask, his slender eyes were filled with fear and confusion.

And at the same time.

The angel who had been watching and "enjoying" the gray fog of despair suddenly took action!
The holy white wings behind him have been fully spread out, and a slender Radiant Holy Bow has been condensed in his hand. The circling holy arrow with shining golden light is already on the bowstring!

——Swoosh!!!
Just as Luo Xiu was rushing towards the "Crow of Despair" Astles from farther away, Tatia's holy bow had already been released, and the arrow of light circling with golden light shot towards Astles at an incredible speed like a meteor!

--boom!!!!!

There was a loud bang, and a golden light suddenly burst out like fireworks, completely submerging Astralis.

Above Astralis’ head, a scarlet burning cloud had appeared, and the rumbling sound of thunder and fire was ringing continuously.

That was Luo Xiu who was rushing towards Astellas. He raised the staff in his hand and released a skill with the largest attack range and the longest attack distance towards Astellas.

——【Dragon Thunder Burning Ashes】from “Ancient Heritage”!
--boom!!!!!

A scarlet light suddenly flashed, accompanied by dozens of scorching thunders falling from the sky!

Astraeas was completely unprepared, or rather, he had no room for defense at all - just a moment after the arrow of light shot by the "two-winged angel" Tatya burst out, the scarlet dragon thunder had already caught up with him.

"Holy Flame Wolf King" Fenrir, "Burning Feather Raven" Wu Ye, "Golden Pegasus" Pegasus, the three "holy beasts" contracted by Luo Xiu Carlos, also released the fire of annihilation towards Astralis at the same time!

……

In this sea of ​​​​broken fire that was overflowing with golden light.

From the spiritual threads of gold and pure white that were almost like heat waves, the gray mist that had condensed into substance was suddenly released. They quickly turned into crows and flew away in all directions.

And at a farther distance, Luo Xiu, who was rushing towards Astralis, also stopped at the same time.

Because his panel had lost all the detection of "Despair Crow" Astralis at that moment. It was not that Astralis was dead, but that he had escaped.

Just before Astraes's "panel" disappeared - in Luo Xiu's continued detection of him, the previous explosion still caused him a considerable amount of damage. His current health has fallen below half of the upper limit and he is already in a "severely injured" state.

He then activated the ability of the "Crow of Despair" to transform into a mist crow and escape, and fled from the battlefield!

That was no ordinary "escape" but a special authority that Astralis obtained through the profession of "Raven of Despair" - he separated himself into spiritual parts, then hid in the spiritual sea belonging to "Nothingness", and swam back and forth there until he swam back from another "door" that connected to the reality.

That is the ability of "Crow of Despair" Astralis to save his life.

Because it is "authority", even Luo Xiu cannot go deep into the spiritual sea belonging to [Nothingness] to hunt him down in a short period of time, and there is no need to do so.

Luo Xiu had already anticipated that Astralis would escape, and he had already made the corresponding preparations.

He no longer paid attention to Astralis, but turned back, his eyes looking to the other side, looking at the last "executioner" who was still resisting on the battlefield.

"Silver-blooded Dragonborn" Quilton!

……

——Boom! ! !
Deafening thunder roared across the battlefield between Albert, the Thunder General, and Quilton, the Silver-blooded Dragonborn. Red light mixed with scorching heat rolled up like a storm, and it was difficult to tell which side was the deep red of the Supreme and which side was the scarlet of the Red Lotus.

Only in that completely crimson "Purgatory", Albert and Quilton were fighting to the death. The fighting spirit of both sides had swelled to the peak. The overflowing spiritual essence had rolled up air waves, expanding a large area of ​​violent aura that seemed to be able to tear everything apart!

The area where they were fighting fiercely had become a "forbidden zone". Soldiers from both sides around the area, even the lower-level transcendents, did not dare to approach, for fear of being affected by the aftermath of the battle and easily losing their lives.

The duel in this violent battlefield will soon decide the winner.

Albert has raised the huge red sword. The scarlet light bursting out from the blade keeps swirling and interweaving, and the terrifying spirituality revealed in it has become more and more intense!

On the other side, Quilton's scales had turned from silver to completely red, and the double helix sword in his hand was constantly trembling, with clusters of scarlet flames leaping up, and the power of destruction was expanding steadily in the flames!

At a certain moment.

"..."

"Thunder General" Albert and "Silver-blooded Dragonborn" Quilton, their figures suddenly disappeared from the spot, and the next moment - the swords in their hands collided heavily with each other!
It was silent at first, with a deep and heterogeneous light flashing frequently. Then, in the vision of everyone around, they only saw a deep red like a burning fire at the end of the world.

--boom!!!!!

After that, everyone heard the loud roar that was loud enough to pierce their eardrums.

A light mist interwoven with red and scarlet spread out at the moment when their fatal blows collided violently, and it quickly spread and surged up, covering everything around.

It also included the figures of Albert and Quilton - but through the red mist that was still swirling, dissipating, rising and sinking, the smell of new blood had spread with the red mist.

Until the deep red fades and the blood mist gradually dissipates.

The two figures still stood there——

But there are some differences.

"Thunder General" Albert, his left arm was cut off.

——"Silver-blooded Dragonborn" Quilton, but he lost his head!

The ferocious dragon head was cut off by Albert and fell on the gravel ground two or three meters away from Quilton's body. The ground was also splashed with a mess of silver-white blood, and wisps of white smoke were steaming under the sunlight.

Liquid gold blood like mercury gushed out from the broken part of Quilton's neck!

Even though his head was cut off, he did not fall down.

But it no longer mattered, because the result of the fierce battle between him and Albert was obvious - there was no doubt that Albert had won the final victory.

Even if the price of this victory is somewhat tragic——

Albert lost an arm. Even if he could use rituals or secret medicine to reattach the severed limb later, Albert's combat effectiveness would be greatly reduced for a certain period of time.

And at this moment.

Albert stood in the wind and sand, his huge sword heavily pressed into the ground, his eyes fixed on the "corpse" of the "Silver-blooded Dragonborn" Quilton opposite him.

Because he could clearly feel that as a saint of [Red Lotus], "Silver-blooded Dragonborn" Quilton was not completely dead yet, and would never die so easily!

suddenly!

The moment Albert cast his eyes, he suddenly felt a huge sense of crisis gripping his heart!

The headless body of "Quilton" suddenly began to move, his hands waving wildly in the air, and his body slowly approaching the head.

At the same time, the dragon head on the ground began to tremble and wriggle, its jaws opening and closing continuously, making intermittent, hoarse sounds.

"Al...bert..."

"Albert... Albert..."

"It's not over yet... Albert!!!"

——He wasn’t really dead!
Albert frowned tightly, and the ominous premonition in his heart became stronger.

His understanding of the "Silver-blooded Dragonborn" Quilton was not thorough enough - but at this time Albert knew that he did not have much strength left to continue the fierce battle.

His "spiritual body" had long been shattered in the previous fierce battle, and now... having lost his left arm, it is estimated that only one-third of his combat power remains.

But he still took a fighting stance, and his only remaining right arm no longer covered the wound on his left arm, but grasped the hilt of the giant sword leaning on the ground.

Albert saw it at the same time.

"Quilton" has picked up his head, and the silver blood on the broken neck began to wriggle like tentacles, and his right hand has already grabbed the head and is moving it to his neck!

He was trying to "continue" - and at the same time, Albert had once again activated his spirituality, and the huge sword in his hand had burst into crimson again!
He looked across and saw the head in Quilton's hand, which was quite close to the neck.

We are about to complete the "continuation" step——

boom! ! ! ! !
The next moment, golden meteorites fell from above Quilton's head!
As the glittering golden sword shone down one after another, the golden mist that rose up once again enveloped Quilton's figure!

It was in Albert's sight.

Countless brilliant feathers emitting bright light suddenly shot out from behind him and exploded at Quilton's position!

The figure of the "bishop" of the Red Maple City Church, Ross Carlos, had appeared in the air in front of Albert.

A strong sense of security suddenly surged into Albert's heart.

"..."

But don't know why.

He always felt a little bitter in his heart.
