My incredible luck and the girl I picked up

During Lei Shuo's explanation of the apocalypse and his return to the main city of the Northern Plains, he also encountered several members of the apocalypse organization, which made it easier for Lei Shuo to explain and for Po Jing Lei to understand.

"Is that so... So that's why you said I'm the savior."

“Yes.” Lei Shuo nodded. “The secret text records that the savior’s name was Po Jing Lei, his strength was at the fifth level of the seventh rank, and his strength was sealed at that time. He was accompanied by a ten-thousand-year-old thunder spirit and appeared in the local area of ​​the Northern Plains…”

“But after searching for many years, I only found the Ten Thousand Year Thunder Spirit, so I entrusted her to Bei Hui and asked her to take good care of the Thunder Spirit for me.”

"I see." Lei Shuo nodded. Now, his only question was why the person who saved the Northern Plains people knew so much about the future...

"Maybe it's the system's arrangement, why am I worrying so much?" In the end, Po Jinglei stopped caring about it, citing the system's arrangement as the reason. The important thing now was the competition.

According to Lei Shuo's words, Tianhuo is probably inside the Doomsday organization... Thinking of this, Po Jinglei couldn't help but smile bitterly. Normally, he might not be able to beat Tianhuo in a one-on-one fight, let alone now that the people behind Tianhuo are much stronger than Po Jinglei, making it even more difficult.

"It's alright, I should still have a chance. After all, I still have Yan hope... who might not be a match for Tianhuo. What I need to worry about is how many NPCs will definitely be my enemies."

A few minutes later, Po Jinglei quickly saw the main city of the Northern Plains people and the army of the Apocalypse not far below the main city. Even the giant dragons that people thought were powerful were now only used to transport troops.

"Follow me," Lei Shuo said in a low voice, becoming extremely vigilant. Although the apocalypse seemed to have only surrounded one side of the main city, who could guarantee that there weren't scouts in other areas? If they were discovered, they would likely be besieged.

The three stealthily made their way through the boulders towards the main city. They soon arrived at the foot of the city wall, where the people there saw and recognized Lei Shuo. They immediately went to inform Bei Wei.

"Clan leader! Clan leader... Lei Shuo, Lei Shuo has returned with his men!"

"What! Quick, take me there!" When Beiwei arrived, Lei Shuo, standing below the city wall, had a wisp of green lightning dancing restlessly on his fingertip, clearly proving his identity.

"That's strange..."

"What's wrong, Lei?"

"Why hasn't anyone come to snipe us yet?" Po Jinglei wondered, but this was also a good thing. Seeing Bei Wei beckon to the three of them, Lei Shuo immediately stepped on the wall at an angle of almost 90 degrees and rushed up, leaving Po Jinglei stunned.

"Hmm... Lei, I think we need to think about how to get up there." Yan hope pointed to the top of the city wall.

"It's okay... Yan hope, hold me tight."

"Okay." Yan Xiyan obediently hugged Po Jinglei, who took out his usual staff from his backpack and began chanting a spell.

Thanks to Tuo Yanxi, Po Jinglei's chanting speed unexpectedly increased significantly. In a flash, Po Jinglei appeared on the city wall, directly in front of Beiwei and Lei Shuo.

By chance, Po Jinglei learned an extra skill: teleportation...

"See, I told you they could come up on their own." Po Jinglei heard Lei Shuo's confident voice as soon as he came up.

After Po Jinglei arrived, he looked around and saw that most of the other players were level 50 ordinary NPCs, but Beiwei was level 80, while Lei Shuo was level 75, just like Po Jinglei.

Po Jinglei estimated that his current maximum combat power after acquiring Yan hope was enough to defeat an ordinary level 120 NPC, and even that would be a struggle. If the apocalypse exceeded that level, he would probably be in dire straits, let alone become the savior of the Beiyuan people.

"Excuse me... what's your name?" Bei Wei walked up to the two of them and asked them personally. "Po Jing Lei, Yan hope."

“Alright, please follow me.” Beiwei nodded and walked towards the city wall in the direction where the apocalypse had stopped.

From their vantage point, the people of the apocalypse were densely packed together, and the few who were clearly the leaders were standing at the very front, their gazes clearly fixed on Po Jinglei.

Oh, I forgot to mention, all the hidden quests were already completed after Po Jinglei was unsealed, and the side quests were also inexplicably finished. Just when Po Jinglei thought the next main quest was to [kill the opponent Tianhuo], the system slapped him in the face—[repel the Doomsday] was the main quest this time.

If Po Jinglei's guess was correct, Tianhuo was likely playing a similar role to himself on the other side of the apocalypse. And Po Jinglei's thinking was also correct; Tianhuo's main mission was—[to occupy the Northern Plains].

The conditions for completing these two tasks are quite clear: to repel/occupy Doomsday/North Plains, you must first kill the enemy's most important people, namely Po Jing Lei and Tian Huo.

So at this moment, all the high-ranking members of the Doomsday faction dispersed. Two people stepped out from among the group of "people," a man and a woman. Po Jinglei, with his sharp eyes, instantly recognized one of them as Tianhuo, but the other was a woman...

“Lei…” Yan hope’s face showed unease.

"What's wrong?" Po Jinglei asked. "That girl... looks a lot like you and me..." Yan hope said, subconsciously leaning towards Po Jinglei, seemingly afraid of the people around Tianhuo.

"Huh? It's not some kind of ten-thousand-year-old fire spirit, is it?" Po Jinglei said casually, unexpectedly receiving a nod from Yan hope. "That guy is so strong..."

"Damn... This is so unfair..." Po Jinglei muttered under his breath. Then he saw Tianhuo below beckon to him and raise his staff, pointing it at Po Jinglei.

"Oh? One-on-one? Yan hope, bring your weapon."

"Okay." Yan hope's body flashed with lightning and he disappeared from the spot, while a silver lightning bolt icon appeared on the Thunderclap Staff.

"Jing Lei, what are you going to do?"

"Clan Chief, please wait here for a moment. I'll be right back." Po Jinglei used a levitation spell and floated to a position about 50 meters in front of Tianhuo.

After landing safely on the spot, Yan hope also detached himself from the staff, and the four of them were thus locked in a standoff.

"Aren't you going to make a move? I'm much stronger than you." Tianhuo smiled confidently. "I don't think I'm weaker than you either." Po Jinglei gripped his staff tightly, ready to deal with Tianhuo at any moment.

"To be honest, I don't think you can beat me even if you have a one-point lead at the start. After all, apart from those three monsters in the top three, I don't think anyone else can beat me." Although Tianhuo's words sounded very much like a taunt to Pojinglei, what he said was indeed true. After Tianhuo's class became the Netherworld series, it was already extremely overpowered. If Pojinglei didn't have a similarly special lightning-type class, he would probably be chased and beaten by Tianhuo.

As for that metal-type mage, that guy is a monster-level individual, just like Tianhuo, but unfortunately, fire counters metal...

"Really? What do you want?"

“How about this,” Tianhuo replied, “Let’s have a 2v2 duel, but of course, it will be two separate matches. One will be a duel between our two spirits, and the other will be our duel. If the outcome of the duel between our two spirits is decided faster than the outcome of our duel, and your Thunder Spirit wins, I will kill it and you will lose this match.” Hearing Tianhuo’s words, Po Jinglei pondered for a moment and looked at Yan Xi beside him.

"I can... trust me, I'm not weak either," Yan hope said, his body crackling with electricity, and his previously somewhat ethereal body had returned to normal.

"...Okay, let's decide on this then."

“Well then, little sister, shall we go somewhere else and not disturb our masters’ duel? Oh, by the way, my name is Lai,” Lai said with a smile.

“Just what I wanted.” After Yan hope finished speaking, the two of them teleported to a place quite a distance away from Po Jing Lei and Tian Huo, and immediately began to fight.

"They really are impatient." Tianhuo shrugged helplessly.

"Enough with the chit-chat, let's begin," Po Jinglei said, his thunderous power already ready.

"Then... please make the first move."

87 Kitahara (End)

“Then…please go first.” Tianhuo said modestly, but before he could say anything, Po Jinglei had already begun chanting a spell. Po Jinglei raised his staff high, and the syllables he uttered were profound and difficult to understand. The wind and clouds changed color, and lightning flashed in the air from time to time.

"Oh, terrain advantage, huh?" Tianhuo's expression was very calm, showing no intention of stopping Po Jinglei. Instead, he explained to the audience, "This explains why the system has given me so many advantages. It's probably because this terrain advantage can completely shatter everything I've done before." As soon as Tianhuo finished speaking, rain began to fall in the sky of Beiyuan, quickly turning from a drizzle into a storm.

As if under some kind of control, the lightning gathered into small clumps, all striking the Heavenly Fire with precision and density. Naturally, the Heavenly Fire wouldn't be so easily dealt with by Po Jing Lei's Wind and Thunder Frenzy. Long before the lightning formed in the sky, he had already unleashed one of his ultimate moves—Netherworld Fire.

[Skill: Netherfire]

[Learning Level: 75]

[Cooldown: 500 seconds]

[Skill Effect: Transform into Netherfire. The cooldown and casting time of skills level 70 and below are all reduced to 0.1 seconds, and the skill effect is increased by 1000%. However, the damage received will increase by 10000000%, lasting for 10 seconds.]

Unable to upgrade.

Knowing that taking damage from a single skill would mean certain death, Tianhuo relentlessly stacked the extra skill Magic Shield and the level 65 skill Fire Demon Devour to absorb the damage from the Thunderclap skill.

[Skill: Fire Demon Devour]

[Learning Level: 65]

[Cooldown: 150 seconds]

[Skill Effect: Summons three fire demons to devour damage once. Each fire demon can only devour a maximum of 50% of the damage, reducing its damage and additional effects by 50%. The fire demons' health is equal to 50% of the caster's health, lasting for 10 seconds.]

[Next level: Each fire demon can only absorb a maximum of 51% of this damage, reducing its damage and effect by 51%. The fire demon's health is equal to 51% of the caster's health, lasting for 10 seconds.]

The Fire Demon Devouring skill of the Heavenly Fire has undoubtedly been leveled to 25, which is the highest level that can be increased without using items. The Fire Demon is exposed to lightning and protected by a magic shield to absorb damage.

Even so, the magic shield still looked like it was about to collapse, which shows just how terrifying the bonus that Beiyuan had on Po Jinglei was, and the beneficiaries of this bonus were not only Po Jinglei.

"Tch, this little girl is really troublesome..." Lai took several steps back, spitting out the blood in his mouth and wiping the blood from his lips.

"I will... win!" Yan hope raised her small hand, and a lightning wall rose up. Several bolts of lightning suddenly struck Lai. In an instant, Yan hope released a lightning wall and a small-scale Wind and Thunder Frenzy.

However, with the help of the terrain and the large-scale Wind and Thunder Frenzy next to it, this Wind and Thunder Frenzy was terrifying. Those few lightning bolts were just the beginning. Soon, although the damage was not as great as the Thunderclap, the number of lightning bolts was exactly the same and they struck Lai.

Tianhuo also noticed the scene beside him, but he was helpless. The Thunderclap Breaking Technique had been chanted for too long and was too powerful. He himself was in a precarious situation, let alone care about others.

How could Po Jing Lei hold back against Tian Huo, an opponent so much stronger than himself? The moment after Feng Lai Lei Feng finished chanting, he waved his staff, used one of its special effects, and began chanting the next spell.

[Weapon Effect 3: Thunderstorm (The next spell cast can be cast a second time immediately. The spell level cannot be higher than the character's level minus 10. Active skill, 120-second cooldown.)]

"Exploding Thunder Frenzy Gun!"

[Skill: Explosive Thunder Spear]

[Learning Level: 65]

[Cooldown: 200 seconds]

[Skill Effect: Summons twenty lightning spears to attack the opponent, each spear dealing 100% of the damage of a level 10 lightning spear.]

[Next level: Each lightning spear deals 102% of the damage of a level 10 lightning spear.]

-

[Skill: Thunder Spear]

[Learning Level: 10]

[Cooldown: 10 seconds]

[Skill Effect: Summons a lightning spear to attack the opponent. The spear deals magic damage equal to 100% of the opponent's magic power and has a chance to paralyze the opponent for 0.5 seconds.]

[Next level: Lightning Spear will deal magic damage equal to 105% of your magic power.]

It can be said that Thunderstorm plus Thunder Explosion Spear is the second most powerful skill combo after the extremely terrifying Wind and Thunder Frenzy, with a total of forty thunder spears, but it also requires a three-second casting time.

Just as the storm of wind and thunder ended, with the dark clouds still hanging in the sky and the lightning still flashing, forty thunder spears simultaneously shot at Tianhuo from various angles, who was still recovering from the storm of wind and thunder.

"This is really troublesome..." At this moment, Tianhuo was already surrounded by a group of magical shields, but the fire demons were almost all dead. Each lightning bolt from Fenglai Leifeng, combined with the terrain bonus, could kill a fire demon.

As soon as the forty lightning spears were fired, Po Jing Lei immediately followed up with a level 70 skill, [Heavenly Thunder Prison]. The effect is not detailed, but it roughly releases a lightning ball. After the lightning ball explodes, a lightning prison with a radius of five meters centered on the lightning ball is formed. It cannot be broken from the inside and cannot be used with movement skills. It lasts for 10 seconds and has a one-second casting time.

The lightning ball was incredibly fast, almost immediately following the lightning spear to reach Tianhuo's front. It exploded instantly, creating a lightning prison that flashed with lightning. The purple of Tianhuo's skill stood out conspicuously against the blue and white of the lightning prison.

After Tianhuo unleashed a series of level 10 Rocket skills, he then used a series of level 50 Flame Storm skills to try and break the prison, but it was clearly useless; it seemed that it could not be opened from the inside.

Upon realizing this, Tianhuo couldn't help but smile bitterly. He also saw that his life-saving skill, Instant Teleportation, had been sealed. This was his own fault; he had been so confident, but he had forgotten about the Heavenly Thunder Prison that could break through Thunderclap, and was now trapped inside.

With this in mind, Tianhuo decisively stacked up his two main survival skills: Magic Shield and Fire Demon Devour. Although these skills had a duration, they could at least help him survive for a period of time after the Thunder Prison was released, putting him in a semi-invincible state and giving him time to cast spells.

Oh right, at this point some people are probably wondering, didn't Tianhuo have a meteor shower skill when he fought Leng Yihan last time? Why isn't he using it now?

After the match, I interviewed Mr. Tianhuo, and this is how he answered me.

Tianhuo: "The damage, destructive power, and range of Meteor Shower are undoubtedly the highest among all my skills. However, precisely because of this, Meteor Shower comes with an extremely long casting time and a very low margin for error. When the meteor falls, I cannot escape its range, which could very likely result in me being crushed to death. If the opponent has an invincibility skill, it is even more likely that I will die while the enemy survives. But these are not the main reasons. The main reason is... this skill can only be used once..."

The above is what Mr. Tianhuo himself said in the post-match interview. Let's go back to the overall picture. Without Meteor Shower, Tianhuo can only use other skills to replace it, and the replacement skill is also a skill with extremely high damage.
