[Roland Mist: Strength 32 (+ 10), Agility 22, Constitution 22, Intelligence 29, Will 20, Charm 19. Talent Abilities: War Angel Form, Sinful Demon God Form, Sword of Order, Titan Body, Phantom Feet, Divine Child, Barrier of Chaos. Basic job class: Level 60 Order Knight/Level 60 Chaos Witch King/Level 10 Four Elemental Swordcaster. Advanced job class: Level 3 Lord of Winter.
Overall Level 91. Actual Combat Power: Level 100.] [System Evaluation: An excellent meatshield capable of directly facing off against an Immemorial Dragon. A Gold-ranked novice who can rival Legend-ranked Warriors … If you really want to find a Time Dragon to prove me wrong, that's fine too.]
Compared to before, my stats didn't change much. As a strength-type job, the increase in Strength was quite satisfactory. That SemiGod Equipment that I obtained from Ömdiroken also increased my power from the very foundation. It could be said that it changed my attack style.
The only unfortunate thing was that this equipment's bonus caused my Strength to break past 30. It didn't give me any qualitative improvement, nor did it activate any racial talents. But as a melee fighter, Strength was still the foundation, and the benefits of this increase were all-rounded.
Super heavy dragon knight armor, super long spears that could be used against giants, hand-held Dragon Breath Cannons, single-use crossbows, and so on. Even if I didn't consider the increase in attack power from actual combat, I could still try out these heavy equipment that normal people wouldn't be able to use.
The additional talent ability for Agility, Phantom Feet, was an incredibly unique ability that allowed me to teleport to the Shadow Plane for a short period of time and then teleport back … But no matter how I thought about it, apart from escaping, this ability really didn't seem to have any other use. Not to mention, I hadn't had a single chance to use this ability before.
But for me, since I had already chosen the path of a two-handed magic swordsman, Agility was more of an aid to my Strength. Perhaps due to my heavy equipment, it didn't seem to have much of an advantage in combat, but without it, it would become a fatal weakness.
Intelligence was doubtlessly the most important stat for a spellcaster. Logically speaking, I had improved quite a bit in my magic cultivation during this period of time, so I should have improved as well. However, just like how 19 to 20 represented the distance between a mortal and a Legend, 30 represented the distance between a Legend and a Saint or Myth rank. Without a fundamental change, it would be difficult for me to improve any further.
However, the more difficult the hurdle, the greater the rewards would be once I passed it. Divine Sin Ice, Frigidwinter Earth, the repaired Ice Treader's Soul Imprint, Origin Magic, Hibernation Chill, and the Four Elemental Sword Seal. Over the course of such a long period of time, I had actually accumulated far more knowledge in magic than any other warrior. Basic stats would directly affect the effects of magic and skills. The magical knowledge and martial arts techniques that I obtained would also have a negative effect on my basic stats. All my hard work would finally pay off, and I was filled with anticipation for the rewards I expected after I broke through my bottleneck.
Willpower was the main stat for a priest job class. It was related to the ability to communicate with the Gods, as well as the ability to comprehend faith and the teachings of the True Gods. Naturally, it was also related to the power of Divine Arts, as well as resistance to negative curses and mental magic. Originally, this was the most useless ability I had, but the Chaos Barrier that I had awakened under the pressure of a Divine Domain had become an incredibly useful defensive ability.
[Chaos Barrier: Protects one's existence from the pressure of a Divine Domain or Soul World. Reduces the effectiveness of will-type and illusory abilities.]
Willpower had always been the most difficult to improve, and there was no other way to improve it. The more one was blessed by a God, the faster their willpower would improve. There were far too many priests who were stuck at the peak of the Gold rank. In fact, there was even a saying that the Gods needed to use their own divine power in order for a priest to break through to the Legend rank. (Actually, Roland's understanding wasn't complete. Willpower was the ability to control one's self. Willpower was the only stat that would forever follow one's soul. The cycle of death and reincarnation was the only shortcut to increasing the barrier.)
I thought about how those old priests with long hair and beards would be stuck at the Legend rank for their entire lives. Yet, I, a job class that completely ignored willpower, actually managed to break through this barrier. If word of this spread, those pitiful old priests would probably be angered to death.
Apart from the Chaos Barrier talent, after that God's Descent, I also obtained a new talent called Child of God. However, it was a useless talent that could be said to be useful or useless. It was a passive ability that could change one's physical body. It could reduce the damage that a God's Descent would do to the physical body and greatly increase the success rate of a God's Descent.
Finally, the Charm stat was also a comprehensive stat. It didn't only represent one's physical appearance. It also represented one's personality, status, and reputation. It would often have a subtle effect when dealing with others. For example, if someone who was beautiful did the same job, they would receive more rewards. Even though they were all students who started working at the same time, some people would quickly get along with others, while others would never be able to find any friends … Fine, this analogy seemed rather inappropriate, but that was the basic meaning.
Although this might be useful to some people, it was actually meaningless to me, so let's not talk about it … Hmph, it wasn't that I was envious of Heloise's 33 points of Charm.
In less than two short years, I had reached such a level. Although I had experienced many dangers and almost died several times, I was still quite satisfied with my gains.
Obtaining Frigidwinter Earth this time could be said to be an explosive increase in my accumulation. Reaching the Gold rank also allowed me to clearly plan my future development path. All that was left was to persevere to the end.
And right now, the little troublemaker before me was also my opponent to test my sword on.
"By the way, just how did she create this Devil Forest in the Earth Elemental Plane? Isn't this a barren land of the air and water elements?"
Plants didn't have as many living conditions as ordinary people expected. However, in order for a seed to germinate into a mature embryo, it would require basic necessities like air, water, soil, and nutrients. It was obvious that there was nothing here apart from soil. I had no idea how she managed to create this forest.
"A Soul World? Or something even more troublesome … "
Perhaps this was the only explanation I could come up with. Invading a Soul World for no reason would be the equivalent of declaring war against a Saint-ranked existence. And Soul Worlds would likely have their own instinctive reaction mechanisms.
To be honest, I didn't want to step into this domain at all.
As the former Truth Overseer and a member of the Mage Country's highest council, Amelia was at the peak of all mortal mages — a SemiGod. Not only that, she was a veteran SemiGod who had reached the SemiGod rank two hundred years ago. Nobody knew just how much power she had.
If she hadn't been killed by Ömdiroken but instead died because of her own teammates, that would have been rather foolish no matter how I looked at it. Not only was this possible, it was quite high.
At the very least, as long as any one of the three Virtues appeared, it was highly likely that I would die since I was unable to use Frigidwinter Earth.
"Oh my, so troublesome. Amelia, remember to thank me."
I resheathed my silver Holy Light sword on my back. Holy Light and the power of Law were obviously ineffective against these berserk plants that were brimming with the power of nature. My twin swords of ice and snow were already in my hands. The power of ice was becoming easier and easier to wield. This represented the harshest nature, and it was also effective against plants.
The moment I took a step forward, it was as if I had stepped on a boundary. All the wild plants in the mountain suddenly came to life, and the demonized forest issued an order to expel the uninvited guests.
"Damn it, I really shouldn't have given you something like Plants vs. Zombies. Also, Amelia, when did you join the Evil Cult of Multi-Cannon!?"
It would be quite unsightly for anyone to be pointed at by a mountain full of cannons. These weren't cute cuties from the original game. These were demonized peas that were as tall as two people, and their cannons alone were the size of several basketballs. Not only that, they were specially made to fire multiple shots in rapid succession.
* Boom! * * Boom! *
Alright then, the sky was covered in bullets, making it impossible to dodge. However, this wasn't even the most dangerous part.
Before we even got close, the gigantic mandala plants reached out their arms and dug themselves out. They screamed and cursed as if they were about to die as they charged towards us.
"Chili peppers? Spicy peppers can kill people if they enter their bodies? Stop joking around. "
Amelia unhesitatingly rejected the original version of pepper bombs. These cursed mandala plants became the best "self-destruct landmines."
"Did I just shoot myself in the foot again?"
However, before they could even get close, they were suddenly frozen into ice by a sudden cold wind, which then shattered into pieces.
"Biting Northern Wind."
The sword energy from my ice sword transformed into a bone-chilling wind that froze the incoming trouble.
I casually swung my sword, and the cold air that leaked out transformed into floating icicles in preparation for the upcoming battle.
For the Four Elemental Swordcasters, imbuing their magic swords with Sword Seals was the most basic of all basics. As for my opponents, the most dangerous part of their magic swords was no longer the sharpness of their swords.
"Biting Beifeng, I didn't expect you to care so much about him …"
When I heard this, my feet slipped and I almost made a fool of myself. However, the next moment, I finally believed in Beifeng's jealousy and sarcasm about my naming sense, and I immediately made up my mind to change the name of this technique.
"How about … Biting Southern Wind? Or Cold Wind? Spring Wind? Harmonious Wind? "
"… Just because it's from the frigid cold earth, it's called Biting Beifeng? What's with the last few ridiculous names? As long as you think they're good, I won't comment on them. "
"Then don't look at me with pity, and don't say it out loud! Ahhh, this pity is even more glaring. Even I feel like I'm truly pitiful. "
While we were "chatting" casually on the battlefield, some people couldn't bear to watch it any longer.
"Ahhh!!!!"
Mandala plants actually sprouted out from under our feet, but we didn't notice.
* Thump! *
That was the sound of my head colliding with ice. These hidden assassins didn't seem to notice that I had long since frozen the entire area.
"The place I'm stepping on is the extreme north."
I lightly stepped on the ground, and the white under my feet spread out. The rapidly expanding snow transformed the surroundings into my territory.
From the moment I obtained that world of ice and snow, no, from the moment I obtained the Ice Treader's Soul Imprint, my combat path had already been determined.
The accumulated snow that slowed me down was my trap, the fierce wind that carried the blizzard was my weapon, the icicles that suddenly fell from the sky were my assassins, and even the glaciers that froze everything was an extension of my will.
The extreme north that I constructed was my castle and fortress. From the moment I stepped onto my territory, my opponent would become the enemy of this world.
I walked slowly, ignoring the cannonballs shot by the Pea Shooters that filled the sky. They would be frozen in midair, stealing away all the heat and time to circulate. Those man-eating flower demons that attacked me turned into exquisite ice flowers before they could even get close, decorating this world once again.
"Although the area effect isn't bad, the area is actually too large, and it seems like it consumes too much energy. How much longer can you last? Five minutes? Ten minutes? "
"Around fifteen minutes. But if 'that' is done, then I can directly extract the ice and freezing air from there. That would basically be zero energy consumption."
"Hmph, what an extravagant mana user."
I didn't know when, but Heloise had already put on a heavy fox fur coat. That furry tiger fur hat even had a pair of lively gem-like eyes. The most outrageous thing was that this fellow was actually hugging a cup to warm herself while nagging. Judging from the heat, fragrance, and color, it was top-notch hot cocoa.
Initially, I didn't feel that I was cold, but looking at her like that, I somehow remembered the frostbite that I suffered not too long ago. My back started shivering and my teeth couldn't help but chatter, so …
"Confiscated!"
I snatched the cup over and sniffed the sweet fragrance. Then, I raised my head and gulped it down.
"Hey, hey, this is mine … Forget it, there's no end to bickering with you."
Unable to snatch it back even if I stood on my tiptoes, Heloise sighed helplessly. Then, she immediately conjured another cup.
Having a cup of warm cocoa down my throat on such a cold day was truly wonderful. But right after that, I felt like something was wrong as a strange taste churned in my stomach. Then, I heard my System's schadenfreude.
[Food God Achievement + 1. System Notification: I already told you not to steal lollipops while you were at it. You deserve it.]
"Cough, cough, what's this smell!? It's too sweet, and there's a strange smell! It's so choking! "
"Heloise's special hot cocoa. It's a special concoction with fragrant catnip and catnip. Would you like another cup?"
Seeing me retch, Heloise actually had a "concerned" expression as she handed me another cup. Smelling that overly pungent fragrance, my stomach felt even more uncomfortable.
Looking at Heloise sticking out her tongue to slowly lick that terrifying special drink, and recalling that terrifying taste, my face couldn't help but twitch.
Perhaps it was because she had been in cat form for too long, and that was the first time she had obtained a new sense of taste after so many years. Her sense of taste had obviously been distorted. Not to mention, she always had the ability to mysteriously take out strange items. From the moment she revived, she seemed to be more and more similar to that strange blue earless cat.
[Magic Pet: Heloise (Greed). Race:? (This is a combination of Golden Elves, Slimes, Divine Sins, Ice Calamity, and Banshees. How do you define her bloodline? She's probably a living human). Strength: 6 (Lolis have three good points: a slender body and a soft waist that makes it easy to push over). Agility: 7 (With such low agility, she can even perform a fall on flat ground for you. Clumsy girls are actually quite cute.). Stamina: - (As your soul-bound equipment, she won't die as long as you don't die … so don't worry and use the lolis as a meat shield. However, you'll have to be careful of the lolis' milk teeth afterwards.)]
[Intelligence: 40 (Yes, she's much smarter than you. In front of her, you're just an idiot, so don't play cards or make bets with her. Yep, I'm not mocking you for playing cards with your own magic pet yesterday and losing even your underwear.). Will: 29 (She hates the Gods and refuses to accept the gifts of any God.). Charm: 33 (This is a beauty that can charm all mortals.). Class: LV60 Mage/LV20 All-Class Archmage/LV10 Great Sage of Magic/LV10 Divine Sins (Mutated). Overall Evaluation: 120 + (Epic). Race Ability: Special Transformation (God-tier), Splitting Greed Child Form (Legend), Shadow Shift, Ice of Calamity, Breath of Magic in the bloodline.]
[Talent Ability: Special Transformation (Epic-tier): Transforming into a harmless cat is her weakest ability. The cute little lolis is just a disguise for her cuteness. She has at least dozens of powerful transformations that can instantly kill Gold-rank beings. As your bound equipment, she can choose a weapon form to transform into. Currently, there are two forms available for you to choose: a staff (Breath of Death) or a magic sword (Ice of Calamity).]
[Talent Ability: Splitting Greed Child Form (Legendary-tier): Splitting into a small Child Form of Greed. This Child Form inherits part of Heloise's abilities and attributes. As long as it's within a certain range, this Child Form will be completely under Heloise's control, acting as her eyes and ears. — When one is unlucky, people always think that the black cat that brings misfortune is everywhere. However, for Heloise, being everywhere is not difficult at all. She will always take the form of a crow, a black cat, or a young girl with a venomous tongue to mock your bad luck. System Evaluation: Although this ability has not improved, because Heloise's main body's power has greatly increased, the power of each Child Form has also skyrocketed. If you don't want to be torn apart by the sea of lolis, don't offend her.]
[Talent Ability: Shadow Shift. Ice of Calamity: This is the Talent Ability of a Divine Sin. Please try not to use it in the mortal plane. Otherwise … System Notification: Both of your Ice Auras are inseparable from Heloise. So, bring more catnip with you.]
[Special Bloodline Ability: Breathing magic in the bloodline. As the race that created magic, the Golden Elves have unparalleled talent in magic. She will be able to analyze any magic spell as long as she looks at it twice. She will also be able to easily imitate and learn any spell much faster than the original.]
[System Evaluation: This is your magical pet. But, without taking into account that cheat-like little world of yours, she is far stronger than you. Due to her undead body, she has been unable to reach the pinnacle. She has accumulated tens of thousands of years of magical knowledge, and now, she can finally use it. She is a living magical treasure trove. And now … she is at her pinnacle.]
This was only her main basic stats and the Talent Abilities of her species. Heloise's strongest point was still her ridiculously large magical knowledge base. After she revived, all the magic spells that she had previously been unable to use due to her limited stats had been unlocked. Seeing this abnormal evaluation, the tragedy of me being inferior to a pet once again occurred.
And, it could be predicted that as my power level increased, her growth rate would only increase. Perhaps the difference in power between us would become even greater.
Looking at the faintly discernible gigantic shadow in front of me, I thought of a good countermeasure.
"I've decided on you! Heloise! Close the door and release the cat! "
"Meow!" The silly loli came at me and took a huge bite.
"Ah!"
Don't misunderstand, Heloise didn't die. It was just that I was worried about the additional "hat" on my head.
