Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest.

Chapter 436: Divine Revelation, Settlement! (4k, first update)
When Luo Xiu opened his eyes again, he saw a strange dome.

It was a dome engraved with various gold and silver patterns, with a six-centimeter gorgeous chandelier hanging in the center. The brilliant crystal in the lamp was shining through the icy crystal wall, emitting a soft light that was a mixture of pale white and orange-yellow.

A soft feeling enveloped him, allowing Luo Xiu to roughly guess that he was in a beautifully decorated room and lying on a soft bed.

This should be in the city of Latama...but it won't be an official residence, but some other mansion.

Luo Xiu was thinking about this. He knew that the official residence was destroyed by him at the beginning of the fierce battle. Even if it was rebuilt, it would not be that fast.

His vision was still a little blurry, but as he gradually adapted to the brightness, his vision finally became clear.

But at the same time, he felt waves of tingling pain all over his body, which made him grin and frown.

That must be the recurrence of an old injury - the bloody battle with the "gluttonous tyrant" Brigantes really consumed too much of his energy, and his extremely tired and weak body has not yet fully recovered.

Luo Xiu propped up his arms, supported his body and slowly sat up.

He could feel that as he slowly sat up, the muscles and bones in his body were making crackling sounds like firecrackers, as if they were tearing each other apart.

The feeling of pain reached its peak at this moment, and Luo Xiu's brows were furrowed again.

"hiss……"

He hissed subconsciously and raised his hand to rub his temple.

It seemed that the last time I fainted like this and then looked up to see the unfamiliar dome was when I was in Sina City. At that time, I had just passed the Holy Judge assessment taught by Priest Leonard.

While thinking about these things aimlessly in his mind, Luo Xiu had already leaned half of his body against the head of the bed and opened his own panel.

It turned out that I was in a state of "light injury" now, and my health limit was limited to 90%, but other than that, there were no other problems, and I would be able to recover after some more rest.

"..."

"good."

One of the purposes was to check his own status. Luo Xiu then opened the [Player Forum] and [Chat Channel], from which he could see the specific time -

现在是天启历768年3月27日，上午10点23分。

In other words, from the end of the decisive battle at dawn on March 3, I was in a coma for two days...

"Two days..."

Luo Xiu muttered, and then he opened a few posts in the [Player Forum] panel and began to browse the recent movements of the players. The discussion among the players was not very heated at the moment.
But from the last time he opened the [Player Forum] and [Chat Channel] to now, there have been thousands of new posts in the forum just for the Expeditionary Force, and the number of messages in each chat group has exceeded 999+.

What Luo Xiuneng learned quickly was that the expeditionary force had finally succeeded in occupying the city of Latama.

Most of the players who participated in the expedition have also completed the settlement of the sudden hell-difficulty mission [Tyrant of Latama]. During the two days when he was unconscious, the strength of the players has been greatly enhanced again due to the settlement of this hell-difficulty mission.

Now, most players have received commissions from the Supreme Beings of the Border Court and the clergy of the church, such as "Rebuilding Latama", "Clearing out the Remnants of the Forces", and "Clean the Battlefield".
It was during these two days of occupying the city of Latama that the players had the most things to do and were most active.

And Luo Xiu - he immediately closed the [Player Forum] and [Chat Channel] and opened his own task panel instead.

And the moment the panel was opened, a panel with floating light and shadow suddenly jumped out, revealing brand new content -

That was a mission of "Divine Revelation" and the content of the settlement declared completed!

[He is pleased to see that His pious apostles have fulfilled His instructions——]

[The holy expedition has wiped out the most evil blasphemy, and the sealed darkness has finally been purified by the glorious light! ]

【There is no more disaster in Latama City.】

[The terror there has been wiped out, the fallen gods have died, and the light has dispelled the haze——]

[As the 'Apostle of Divine Glory', you have fulfilled your oath and purified the city of potential chaos. ]

[A divine gift commensurate with your achievements will be bestowed in a moment]

【…】

[Completed the God-given quest: Latama's Disaster (?? Difficulty)]

[Receive a divine gift in a moment! ]

[Your "divinity" attribute increases by 218 points; the upper limit of health and mana increases by an additional 15%; you gain 86 free attribute points]

[Successfully completed the "Divine Revelation"]

[Feat: "God-Gifted (Epic, Milestone)" - Feat Upgrade]

[You get the expertise: "God-given (Legend, Milestone)"! ]

[The one who has received the gift from God (legend, milestone): You are the one who has received the true gift from God, and the pillar god of your destiny has paid close attention to you - you have been blessed with the "glow" given by Him. ]

[Your "Health", "Mana", "Physical Attack", "Spell Attack", and "Defense Reduction" attribute values ​​are all increased by an additional 20%. This increase is bound to "Divine Glory Oracle·Momentary God's Blessing". As the number of "Divine Glory Oracles" completed increases, this specialty has a chance to be upgraded to "God's Birth" quality. ]

【…】

"..."

Staring at the settlement interface that suddenly appeared on the panel, Luo Xiu quickly browsed through its contents, with a slight smile on his face.

This was a "perfectly completed" divine revelation - because the "gluttonous tyrant" Brigantes had been truly killed by himself.

Although the eight "scars" in Latama's Acropolis continued to churn out sporadic Abyss Beasts, that was at their own instruction, and Dayi Xuyou seemed to no longer care about those newly born Abyss Beasts that were not enough to threaten [Glory].

The harvest this time can be described as rich - 218 points of pure improvement in "divinity" attributes, and an accompanying 15% improvement in "health" and "mana". In addition to these, the milestone expertise [Bestowed by God], which was originally of "epic" quality, has also been upgraded to a "legendary" quality expertise!
At "Epic" quality, the effect of [God's Gift] is to increase the five basic attributes by 10%, and after being upgraded to "Legendary" quality, the increase has increased by another 10%!
That’s quite a good harvest.

After the panel finished calculating the task of [Latama's Disaster], Luo Xiu clearly felt a clear heat flow into his body.

The new spirituality was flowing through his body. He could clearly feel the warmth, and the previous tingling sensations in his body were also alleviated a little.

He was therefore able to try to stretch his muscles, so he closed the panel and got off the bed.

In fact, in addition to the settlement of a "Divine Revelation", Luo Xiu now has two matters to be settled - the Hell Difficulty Mission [Tyrant of Latama], and the settlement of the reward for killing the "Greedy Tyrant" Brigantis.

But I can settle it later, Luo Xiu thought - because when he got out of bed, he heard a rustling sound of footsteps coming from outside the door.

There were three surges of spiritual energy approaching the room where he was. Luo Xiu felt familiar with one of them - it was the spiritual energy of "Thunder General" Albert.

As for the other two spirits, they should be the "Golden Sword Master" Klein Fesera and the "Winter General" Lansas Thorne.

They actually came together. It seemed that the "Golden Sword Saint" had reached another "alliance agreement" with Albert, Lansas and others as agreed with the family in advance.

Knock, knock, knock—soon, the door of the room where Luo Xiu was was knocked gently from outside.

And Albert's voice followed:

"Are you awake, Luo Xiu?"

"..."

"Luo Xiu?"

"..."

Albert asked twice in a row, and Luo Xiu had taken down the bishop's robe from the wall, draped it over his body, fastened his silk belt, sat back on the edge of the bed, and coughed twice in response to the voice outside the door:
“…It’s me.”

——Creak, the door was gently opened from the outside.

Three figures walked in. They were indeed Albert, Lansas, and Klein Fesela.

Behind them followed a waiter, a "Throne Knight" from the side court, and his own attendant priest, the "Guide Priest" Colen.

When he just woke up, he felt that there were two groups of spiritual beings outside the door, which were much thinner in comparison. One of them belonged to the "Guiding Priest" Colen, and the other should be that of the Throne Knight.

Perhaps they heard the noise of me waking up and getting up, so they reported it to the two generals not far away... That should be the case.

Luo Xiu thought to himself, and at the same time he raised his head and looked at the people who had just come in with a weak gaze.

Albert came first. His dark red eyes seemed to be flashing with excitement. He saw that Luo Xiu had woken up from his coma and was the first to greet him:

"You are awake indeed, Luo Xiu!"

"When did you wake up?"

"..."

"I just woke up." Luo Xiu responded with a smile.

His eyes then moved away from Albert and fell on a row of gray velvet sofas against the wall across the room, and he said:
"Please feel free to take a seat, my Lords. I think I have been unconscious for a long time, and I have many questions in my mind."

"..."

"I'm glad you woke up, Luo Xiu."

After Luo Xiu finished speaking, Albert responded:

"A lot of things did happen. We were all waiting for you to wake up so that we could tell you."

They then each found a place to sit down and surrounded the bed where Luo Xiu was sitting.

Then, Luo Xiu looked at Albert, and then at Lansas. He saw that the general of "Winter" looked pale and a little weak. When his eyes met Luo Xiu's, he just nodded slightly as a response or greeting.

Luo Xiu finally turned his gaze towards the "Golden Sword Saint" Klein Fesela, with a questioning look on his face, and asked:

"I have seen this... um, friend from the Golden Country on the battlefield."

"Who is this one?"

He knew that "Klein Fesera" would not tell Albert and Lansas about the content of the Fesera family's cooperation with him. This was a contractual provision clearly written in the "Golden Contract".

"This one is His Excellency Klein Fesera," Albert introduced him to Luo Xiu. "He is the Fifth Sword Master of the Golden Kingdom and the Guardian of the Fesera Family, one of the ruling families. His Excellency Klein is here on behalf of the Fesera Family as an envoy to form an alliance with us."

"You may not know yet, Luo Xiu. The Fesela family intends to partially intervene in the "War of Judgment" against the Dark Principality——"

"Lord Klein has already told me that three teams of merchants from the Fesela family have disappeared in the border area of ​​the Dark Principality. As a result, they had to change their neutral attitude. Lord Klein will lead the Golden Army under the command of the Fesela family to enter the Dark Principality to search for the whereabouts of the missing merchants."

"..."

Fuck, this is really an excuse for war...

Luo Xiu complained in his heart, recalling the several "suggestions" he had given to President Qiao Dewen at that time. He didn't expect that they would actually adopt them, and adopted them many times.

It seems that they used this excuse for war when they sent out the Golden Army to engage in a fight with the Holy Tower Church's "Psychic Legion" on the border with the Church.

"That's a good thing... Lord Albert." Luo Xiu smiled and said, "We should indeed unite more 'allies' that we can unite with. And Lord Klein did provide us with important assistance in the previous bloody battle against the 'Gluttonous Tyrant'."

Luo Xiu then looked towards Klein Fesela and greeted her with a smile:

"Hello, Lord Fesela."

"On behalf of the church and clergy, I thank you for your assistance."

"..."

"…Hello."

Klein was a little taciturn. He only responded with two words, nodded lightly, and returned to his initial silence.

In fact, he had already met with Luo Xiu in secret, and while Luo Xiu was in a coma, he told the two Supreme Generals, Albert and Lansas, the story that had been prepared by the family to avoid unnecessary trouble for their important client, "Bishop" Luo Xiu.

After Klein nodded in response, Luo Xiu turned his gaze back to Albert and asked him:

"So, about the battle..."

"We have successfully captured the city of Latama, Luo Xiu."

Albert said with a certain pride in his voice:

"We are now in the palace of Latama City. This was originally the palace where the Dark Duke or Chief Executioner Fafnir stayed when he arrived. Now, this is our palace."

"okay…"

Luo Xiu nodded and asked again: "Then, about the 'Greedy Tyrant'..."

"'Gluttonous Tyrant' Brigantes, since you unlocked the barrier of the Lightless Cage, only two bodies that have turned to water are left."

"He has not made any further movement. We have also designated the area where He 'fell' as a restricted area. During this period of time, His body has almost completely lost its spirituality, and there is no sign of His 'resurrection'."

Albert said.
