Sequence Wars: The Mythical Age is Created by Me

This was mainly because it was the first time Jiang Fan had ever seen the word "EX" in a game skill description.

S-rank represents the strongest group among all sequences in that rank, while EX in many games refers to "exceptional".

Sometimes EX doesn't mean it's stronger than S-class; it just breaks the rules and has incredible miraculous properties.

At this moment, Charon's health bar began to increase rapidly, not from recovery, but from the increase in the maximum health bar itself.

It went directly from X1 to X3, with three full health bars that filled the entire screen.

Correspondingly, the Styx River fiercely expanded its range, originally only occupying the playground of Tianhai Affiliated High School, but in just a few seconds it had already spread outside the school.

The bottomless black river water beneath everyone's feet caused them to leap from the ground to the steps on the second or first floor.

A struggling object pierced Charon's hood, and as if emerging from a cocoon, the feathers of six ravens slowly opened on his head, and the skeleton was strangely reborn.

He bent down and retrieved a skeleton draped in black gauze from the River Styx.

Charon has been transformed into a fourth-tier "Ferryman of the Underworld." Since this sequence was converted from "Beaked Doctor," he will be able to ferry the evil spirits of those who died from the Black Death in the Middle Ages. Overall rating: B+, Strength: B, Speed: B, Spirit: B++.

The Pale Knight has been here for ten minutes, and Charon has successfully evolved to the fourth tier.

However, Rias still holds the advantage, after all, she is locked at the fourth rank [King Arthur] with 59% of the advancement value. Her strength attribute is B++, speed attribute is B+, and spirit attribute is B+. She is a well-rounded hexagonal warrior with an overall rating of B+, with both offense and defense, and no weaknesses.

"What's going on? Charon's aura has completely overwhelmed the third rank."

Xiao Ci, carrying the still unconscious Richard in one hand, asked in surprise and doubt.

"That thing in the sky has been sending something to Charon. It did the same thing at Jinan Port. The way this mythological sequence is reviving is probably by releasing a powerful anomaly at each destination."

Lu Feng thought of the "Dance of Death" that the three of them had defeated together before. The feeling then was the same as now. The Pale Knight had been creating an environment for these strange phenomena. The demon Richard mentioned was just using the Pale Knight to achieve his goal faster.

As soon as Lu Feng finished speaking, the strange phenomena inside and outside Tianhai High School confirmed his guess.

The black-veiled skeleton that Charon had retrieved from the River Styx had eerie green phosphorescent flames burning in its hollow eye sockets. It opened its jaws and let out a sharp shriek that seemed to pierce eardrums.

With that roar, the overflowing River Styx boiled violently.

Countless pale arms stretched out from the viscous, black river water.

Immediately afterwards, evil spirits covered in black spots and dressed in tattered medieval linen clothes crawled out of the water like swarms of insects.

The ferrymen of the underworld can guide souls to the underworld, and they can also ferry the most wicked and evil ghosts from the underworld.

In just a few dozen seconds, the entire Tianhai Affiliated High School and the surrounding streets had become a crowded sea of ​​the dead.

Standing in front of the game console screen, Jiang Fan looked at the densely packed gray-black pixels that almost filled the screen background. Instead of feeling overwhelmed, his eyes lit up with excitement.

Rias's job change quest is still quite far off.

[Death, death? Death!]: Rias has accumulated 1000 kills in the game. (41/1000)

[Doomsday Approaches]: Rias needs to reach the second-order state of the current sequence. (Completed)

【启示录】：已投放100只异象（击败卡戎可将该进度提升到70/100，当前31/100）

This is the perfect time to complete tasks.

In contrast to Jiang Fan's reaction, the faces of everyone in the Ninth Inning were deathly pale.

"To think they could summon such a high density of low-grade evil spirits..."

Keep in mind that this place is located between the third and fourth ring roads of Tianhai City. Although the school has been evacuated, the evacuation point is not far from here. If these strange phenomena are allowed to spread out of control, the consequences will be almost incalculable.

Each of these bizarre and malevolent creatures requires at least a seasoned first-tier cultivator to handle, and the entire Tianhai City, excluding the awakened individuals in the general population, has fewer than a few hundred such creatures.

Although newly recruited members and operators who have acquired the Jingxie Armament can restrain them, they will inevitably cause great damage.

The fourth-tier [King Arthur] is indeed powerful, but can she stop the tide of strange beings?

Jiang Fan looked at the dense array of strange things on the screen and immediately told Rias to rush down.

This kind of unparalleled opportunity to mow down enemies is probably only available in this one match.

Like a fiery meteor piercing the night, Rias crashed headlong into the deathly ocean formed by medieval evil spirits.

Charon was somewhat surprised to see this, as the Styx was his home turf.

While in the heavens, he didn't really have a good way to deal with the girl, but in the River Styx, every inch of the water was teeming with his consciousness.

So, just as Rias stepped into these waters, a water serpent several meters tall suddenly rose from the River Styx, trying to drag her into the depths of the River Styx like the most vicious predator.

Rias simply rotated her wrist, and her entire skeleton, from wrist to toe, crackled and popped. Her bones, which were neither clearly dragon-like nor human-like, became exceptionally compact, the gaps between them disappeared, and even her female arms became as hard as steel.

Inhuman tendons and membranes encased her bones and flesh, making many physical enhancement sequences that required all their strength to achieve merely incidental in front of Rias.

She actually managed to withstand the tearing of those water pythons by relying on her fully transformed dragon body, as well as her pair of dragon wings and secondary wings.

Then they launched a lawnmower-like attack.

The second-tier [Knight]'s attack style is typical of the early stages of an action game. Each swing of Rias's cross sword produces a single point of "flash sword energy" on the screen, with a noticeable lag or stiffness after the attack.

Now, with each swing of Rias's sword, the waving red-gold dragon phantom on the blade automatically spreads out a wide range of light along the trajectory of the sword, much like the screen-clearing monster slaying in the browser game "Legend" where one strike wipes out all monsters. The attack method has changed dramatically.

"They've lost their humanity..."

Jiang Fan couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the changes in Rias's body after he used four gold bars to enhance the skill [Legendary Dragon Form Lv.8].

If all seven stages of ascension were given to this dragon form, she would probably become a true dragon.

Charon is weaker than Rias in both strength and speed, especially in strength, where the difference is two pluses, making him completely helpless against the latter.

Even if one becomes a fourth-order rank, it's nothing more than an anomaly.

It's time to end this battle.

Jiang Fan didn't want these strange creatures to leave the River Styx and run off to Tianhai City to cause trouble, but he had finally managed to get Rias to have a bowel movement, so what was wrong with him enjoying himself?

Moreover, he didn't give these evil spirits a chance to leave.

Let's end it now.

There wasn't enough time left for the next battle, so Jiang Fan pressed the up button three times in a row.

An enormous creature appeared behind Rias, summoning the fantastical being from epic legends.

The "gold bar" entwined with the red dragon and rose is being rapidly extracted, and the sequence factors are frantically surging into the three rising [British Red Dragon Lv.9 (A-level)].

This is the combo skill that the game machine automatically prompted after Jiang Fan used four stages of [Legendary Dragon Form Lv.8]. These two skills, following the 4+3 ascension pattern, can directly summon the red dragon entity.

Although this entity lacks intelligence, its intimidation is sufficient.

Rias raised the broken sword high with both hands and brought it down heavily as if a king were issuing a command. Clearly, this was not a finishing move to unleash a beam attack, but rather an instruction to the dragon to launch an attack.

The moment the sword fell, the enormous red dragon behind Rias suddenly spread its wings.

The dragon's breath, carrying wind pressure, crushed the River Styx.

The evil spirits in the river crumbled under the red dragon's attack, and a third of them were cleared away in just half a minute.

Even Charon lost a health bar, but he only groaned and then kept adjusting the skeleton draped in black gauze in his arms.

During the battle, he had figured out Rias's appearance and skeleton, and now he needed to adjust the skeleton to match her.

With the seven gold bars exhausted, the red dragon's breath completely cleansed the River Styx of its dead, leaving only Charon standing alone in the broken riverbed.

However, his health bar is now almost empty, and the death of those evil spirits will also deduct Charon's health points.

Without hesitation, Rias rushed forward, intending to defeat Charon.

But unexpectedly, Charon did not resist. Instead, he raised his scythe and slashed at the skeleton in Charon's arms.

The bones, which had been soaking in the River Styx for an unknown amount of time and had become soft and mushy, snapped with a snap.

Just as everyone was still confused about what had happened, Rias's indestructible silver armor suddenly cracked with a sound.

Then the sound spread into a huge crack from the left shoulder to the right waist, exactly like the severed skeleton in Charon's arms.

Meanwhile, in the upper left corner of the game console, Rias's health bar plummeted by four-fifths.

Fortunately, Charon was also at his wit's end, and the Red Dragon Lord dragged his wounded body and plunged the blade directly into the opponent's chest.

The eerie green phosphorescent flames in his eyes flickered wildly once more, as if trying to make a final struggle with the remaining deathly aura of the River Styx.

But Jiang Fan didn't give him that chance. A horizontal bar indicating that Charon was about to be killed had appeared on his body, which meant that the trait "Cut Canvas" could be triggered.

The game screen suddenly froze, all colors faded, leaving only stark black and white lines, as if the entire battlefield had become a painting about to be finalized.

The original pixelated art style was abruptly cut apart by a straight red line.

As Rias casually sheathed her sword, the red line that ran across Charon's body suddenly expanded, cutting his entire "survival canvas" in half at that moment.

The playground of Tianhai Affiliated High School fell completely silent, with only a few scattered embers drifting in the wind, telling the story of the end of that terrifying purge.

Rias stood still, her cool eyes regaining their composure, and the mark belonging to King Arthur on the back of her hand was slowly fading.

The blue bar is almost finished.

Charon has been defeated; Main Quest 2 complete.

The ritual for "Mephisto" has been completed, but Charon's defeat has caused a rift in his plan.

The Book of Revelation has progressed to (70/100)

[“Death, death? Death!” Completed]

[Should we end Act III here?]

[Note: Act III is the final act of Chapter 1, "Coronation of Dust." After completing the first chapter, the game will undergo maintenance and a version update.]

Jiang Fan glanced at the death toll: 00002365. He had completed the second and third main quests. If he completed two of the three quests, he could clear the game directly.

He defeated Charon, but Mephisto's ascension ritual was still completed.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. After all, Charon is already at Tier 4, so the one who summons him can't still be at Tier 3. Perhaps at the moment Charon reaches Tier 4, Mephisto will also step into Tier 4.

This is one of Jiang Fan's hidden worries. At the same time, he is a master gamer, so how can he rely on welfare to complete the game?

Of course, the first main quest also needs to be completed.

The conditions for completing this task are self-evident: all three job change tasks must be completed.

All that's left now is the Book of Revelation.

There is still one more (100/100) death or plague anomaly waiting for him to resolve, and then Rias will be able to truly obtain a mythic sequence.

[You have refused to end Act Three here. The stage play will continue. If you fail to complete the game, this will be your new starting point.]

The previously stagnant scene began to flow again.

Rias's health bar returned to its current, somewhat weak length, and the gold bars reverted to yellow bars.

There are only three sections yet.

Fortunately, the "Red Dragon's Crown" can be used twice more, which should be enough to complete the third act.

Jiang Fan also discovered that the more Rias activated the power of [King Arthur], the faster the blue bar was consumed. Normally, without using gold bars to ascend, it could last for most of the day, but after using up all seven stages, it only lasted for half an hour.

Fortunately, Rias's health bar seems to be calculated separately. Her health bar, which was almost empty, was still four-fifths full after she returned to the [Knight] sequence.

At Rias's feet are two relics that can be extracted.

【The Devil's Parchment】(C- Rank), 【Charon's Silver Coin】(B- Rank).

Rias absorbed it into her cross, and this time Jiang Fan didn't rush to exchange it all, but kept it.

Needless to say, the demon's parchment is the means by which Mephisto summons Charon.

The silver coins are interesting. In Greek mythology, after a person dies, their family would place one in the mouth of the deceased as payment for Charon's crossing of the Styx.

This can be considered the medium that directly attracts Charon, and it can even be used as a relic to awaken Charon.

Jiang Fan tried exchanging them and was surprised to find he could get 40 [Keys of History] or two [Keys of Myth]
