Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest.

Chapter 412 "Winter General" Lansas (rd update! A total of words updated today, please give me a monthly vote~)

"Greetings, Lord Albert."

The knight who came in first knelt on one knee before Albert and performed the [Supreme] salute of vassalage.

Albert squinted his eyes and looked at him, while Luo Xiu also looked at him with his usual calm and gentle eyes.

Luo Xiu's panel detection showed that the "Knight of the Throne" in front of him was named Halzat, and his full name was "Halzat Rusev".

He was a knight in silver-white armor, and on his armor, delicate indigo lines were used to outline snowflake-like patterns, which was the symbol of the knights under the command of "General Winter".

While Luo Xiu was still observing the "Throne Knight" in front of him, the knight named Halzat had stood up, turned to face the "Bishop" Luo Xiu, and bowed to him respectfully.

"Greetings to you too, venerable Bishop."

This is also the etiquette of the [Supreme] - although the "Bishop" Luo Xiu is not the [Supreme] but a high-ranking person of [Glory], he belongs to the same camp of the Nolan Empire and also has certain dispatch rights over the "Throne Knights".

And when Halzat bowed to Luo Xiu, Luo Xiu then heard a calm voice coming from under Halzat's helmet.

Harzat said:

"Our general has arrived and is outside the city."

"Lord Lansas heard that you successfully captured the Acropolis, so he asked me to come and congratulate you."

——"General Winter" Lansas, has he arrived?
Luo Xiu was thinking, and the "Thunder General" Albert, who was sitting on the main seat next to him, snorted heavily after Harzat finished speaking, and said in a somewhat dissatisfied tone:
"Humph."

"Your general is late."

"Lord Lansas expected you to question him, Lord Albert."

Halzat was not afraid of Albert's questioning. On the contrary, he seemed calm. Even when Albert was questioning him, he had taken off the thick helmet on his head and held it in the crook of his left arm.

After taking off his visor, Halzat revealed a clean face. His hair was silver-gray and seemed to be well-groomed. It was gleaming like a waterfall.

At the same time, a somewhat apologetic look appeared on his face. He bowed deeply to Albert again and said:

"Lord Lansas, that's why I was asked to enter the city first to explain some things to you."

"Lord Lansas asked me to convey to you - 'We encountered some unexpected variables on the way, and that happened to be related to the city of Latama, but that will not affect what we are going to do later, because we have already resolved the variables.'"

"These are Lord Lansas's exact words, Lord Albert."

Halzat's voice sounded calm and gentle, like the lake water in spring.

"And Lord Lansas also asked me to tell you that he brought you a grand 'gift' and said you would definitely like it."

"Gift……"

Albert's expression darkened. He subconsciously raised his left hand and gently supported his forehead, seeming to have a headache.

"Go back and tell Lansas not to do unnecessary things."

"The expeditionary force of Fort Snowd can gather on the western plains. I will have the city gates opened and let you in."

Albert said this to the throne knight in front of him.

There was still no fluctuation on the face of "Throne Knight" Halzat. He just smiled and saluted respectfully to General Albert on the throne again.

After the ceremony, Harzat stood up again and said to Albert, Luo Xiu, and the two deans of the Fangbei Academy:

"Then please allow me to say goodbye to the adults."

Halzat said in a gentle voice.

Afterwards, he confirmed that General Albert on the main seat had nodded slightly, put the helmet in his arms back on his head, and turned to walk out of the tent.

When Harzat's back was blocked by the door curtain and the crisp sound of his steel boots gradually disappeared, Albert sighed and said:

"The third seat of the Round Table, the Knight of the Divine Seal, 'General Winter' Lansas, and the knights under his command are all of this character."

"They don't look like Supreme knights, especially Lansas, because they don't have the kind of 'majesty' that can intimidate others, but Marquis Bakar relies on him a lot."

What Albert said was indeed the truth - Luo Xiu also did not feel the kind of [Supreme] oppression from the "Throne Knight" Halzat... Instead, he felt a kind of "familiarity".

"But there is no doubt that Lansas is indeed very strong."

Albert's eyes were focused as he looked straight at the direction where the "Knight of the Throne" Halzat had just left. After a while, he stood up and said:
"Let's go pick up our 'new ally'."

……

Latama, Acropolis.

The western part of the Acropolis is the area where the "Abyss Beasts" emerged earlier, and many players are gathering here.

Most of them were the "Guardians" of the church, and those approaching the "restricted area" were mostly members of the "Mirror of Glory" guild.

They had just witnessed a brilliant explosion - the "Thomas Big Fireworks", which directly blew away a "Madness", three "Twists" and eight "Dangerous" abyss beasts that had just emerged from the ground, leaving nothing behind.

If the scene at that time were restored, it would be that the "Great Shepherd of Purification" Thomas rushed into the forbidden area naked, and before the Abyss Beasts on the opposite side noticed him and attacked him, he first cast three "holy spells", causing the first wave of damage to those Abyss Beasts.

As a result, he consumed his mana to below 70%, and then poured 50% of his upper limit of mana into the [Skull of the Martyr], while activating the detonation effects of the [Skull of the Martyr] and [Burning of the Devourer].

——BOOM! ! BOOM! !

Two huge explosions were heard one after another. First, the [Skull of the Martyr] exploded, and then the [Burning of the Devourer] was detonated.

The Abyssal Beasts that had just passed through the "Golden Barrier" and had not had time to take a few breaths of fresh air on the surface, their vision was quickly engulfed by the complete scarlet.

Then, they felt a violent suffocation and burning sensation, and their bodies became fragmented and eventually turned into ashes.

The Abyss Beasts returned to the Styx without any resistance and re-entered the beginning of their gestation. Although the process of killing several Abyss Beasts in seconds was quite fast, Thomas himself felt that the effect of detonating the [Skull of the Martyr] first and then the [Devourer's Burning] was not particularly good.

The damage caused by [Burning Devourer] was lower than expected, perhaps because [Burning Devourer] used Thomas' body as "explosive", and his body had been blown to pieces by [Skull of Martyrdom] first.

If this is the case, then perhaps we should study how to make [Devourer's Burning] explode in front of [Martyr's Skull] to maximize the damage.

Thomas thought,

——Then I should use various skills to reduce my mana to below 20%, and when [Devourer's Burn] is forcibly activated, I should pour all the remaining mana into [Martyr's Skull]...

This should be the standard procedure of the self-destruction school.

But Thomas couldn't try again. This was his ninth death this week. His vision had drifted to the God's perspective of watching the game, and several large lines appeared in front of him -

Thomas the Tank Engine#Dead

[Your number of deaths this week is 9 times]

[Resurrection countdown: 05:58:46]

【…】

And in the chat group of the "Mirror of Radiance" Guild——

[Thomas the Tank Engine]: Gan! My family members are in jail, and the resurrection is cooled down after six hours!

[Thomas the Tank Engine]: Woohoo, I'm dying without God's Path
[Alicia]:?

[Big Crocodile Stewed in an Iron Pot]: Chao, don’t say it, don’t say it

[Iron Pot Stewed Crocodile]: What an awesome explosion (appreciation)

Alicia: Indeed.
[Alicia]: I have been monitoring the status of those monsters. The two explosions caused 2936 and 2343 damage to the big monster "Madness" respectively.
[Alicia]: I don't know how "defense reduction" is calculated, but it shouldn't be a direct reduction. In any case, the amount of damage is far beyond the limit.
【Thomas the Tank Engine】: OK, OK (appreciation.jpg)

[Thomas the Tank Engine]: This amount of damage... to be honest, it's enough to kill five of me in one second.
[Iron Pot Stewed Crocodile]: Don’t talk about the five of you

[Iron Pot Stewed Crocodile]: We are all here. Even if we have our shields fully loaded, we can kill you in two seconds.

[Big Crocodile Stewed in an Iron Pot]: To be honest, I feel that the intensity is a bit weird!
【Iron Pot Stewed Crocodile】: Where did you get it? I want to get one too.

[Sweating Soybeans]: Me too!

[Sweating Soybeans]: Art is an explosion, and it becomes concrete at this moment!

[Alicia]: I... forget it, I don't think I need this

[Alicia]: Come on guys, I'll go find out if there's any skill that can steal mana, and then I'll pick you all up.
【Big Crocodile Stewed in an Iron Pot】:?

【Thomas the Tank Engine】：?

【……】：……

In the chat group of "Mirror of Glow", players were chatting with each other.

In fact, for Thomas, Crocodile, and Alicia, the performance of [Burning Devourer] was somewhat beyond their expectations.

After confirming the effectiveness of a practice, you can determine some skills that can be used in conjunction with it based on the test results, and use this as the direction for future training intensity.

It is now basically certain that "Thomas the Tank Engine" will be the absolute output core of the team.

As the "Great Shepherd of Purification", his output capability is not weak. With the addition of [Burning of the Devourer], it has reached a somewhat abnormal level at the same level.

The first skill set they have thought of at the moment is for Crocodile, Alicia and others to completely protect Thomas, allowing Thomas to rush to the enemy safely and then use up the last bit of blue.

This will mainly be used in attack scenarios——

In Alicia's calculations, if the team paid more attention to cooperation, they might be able to find a "disaster" level boss and see if they can use Thomas' three lives to exchange for it.

Thomas didn't know that Alicia was making such a plan - he was now in a six-hour death cooldown due to his self-explosion. He chatted with his teammates in the guild group and then went offline to wait for the cooldown.

On the edge of the "forbidden zone", the crocodile, Alicia and others, who had already watched the "Thomas Big Fireworks" once, also returned towards the direction of their "Guardian" camp.

But as they walked up the main street of the Acropolis,
There was a commotion in the distance, and they seemed to hear the sound of horses' hooves.

Following the source of the sound, Da Yu, Alicia, Huang Dou and the others saw a figure riding on a snow-white warhorse.

He was a man with long hair like a waterfall and a very handsome face.

The sunlight penetrated the clouds and shone on the knight, and his silver-white armor reflected a dazzling light.

His long hair fluttered in the wind, emitting a mysterious and charming silver-gray luster, and the exquisite indigo patterns on his armor also flashed with flowing colors, as if there was a deep power hidden under every line.

There was a smile on his face, a quiet, gentle smile that made people unconsciously want to get closer and get close to him.

He was a rather "elegant" noble knight - that was the first impression that Big Crocodile, Alicia had of him.

But he was not clean - the hem of his blue-edged and silver-surfaced armor was covered in blood, and on the side of the pure white warhorse hung a white cloth bag that was dripping with blood.

This is indeed full of considerable visual impact.

The crocodile simultaneously sent a panel detection towards him.

Almost all the content fed back by the panel is an invisible question mark. This will only happen when the detected target is at least "Fifth Level of Destiny"!
The crocodile could only see the "name" on the top of the noble knight.

——That is “General Winter” Lansas Thorne.
