Unlike the exasperated Edward, Xi Wei, who was watching the show from his Divine Kingdom, was very impressed with Eleena's decisiveness.
"As expected of my Saintess (Candidate)!"
Being able to check the Players' panel, he naturally knew why Eleena wanted to steal the kill this time.
That being said, Xi Wei's tentacles did not stop.
He gathered the corpses of the imps the Players had slain together and refined them as usual.
A small portion of it turned into pure divine energy, while the rest was twisted and corrupted divine power of the undead and a pile of useless waste.
"As I thought, I still can't analyze the original owner of this divine power …"
Even Xi Wei couldn't help feeling a headache over how to deal with the mutated divine power that squirmed like a slime.
With the suppression of his Divine Kingdom, he didn't have to worry about it rebelling, but keeping it around wasn't a solution either.
After all, it couldn't be used for the Players to create classes or as a battery to replenish divine power, much less derive Life Skills.
Moreover, due to the uniqueness of that divine power, Xi Wei didn't even dare to casually throw it into the Void, afraid that it wouldn't be destroyed by the Void and would instead drift to some other plane, taking advantage of the situation to directly turn it into a zombie plane …
Xi Wei stared at the divine power in disdain, and after some thought, he took out the skull of the Rotten Bones.
The divine power stored inside was almost used up, and using it to seal this booger … uh, mutated divine power was just right.
With that done, Xi Wei tossed the skull into a corner of his Divine Kingdom like a spittoon, and began to think about what reward he should give the Players.
Truth be told, Xi Wei wasn't too satisfied with the Players' performance this time.
While the devils were powerful, they were still a supernatural race, and their ability had declined beyond recognition after being sealed for so long.
It was almost expected that the Players would be able to defeat the devils.
But after defeating the devil, the Players had clearly become arrogant. Against the Revengeful Nightcry, they started to underestimate it by relying on their understanding of its attack patterns.
In the end, they were almost caught off guard by Nightcry's clone. If Xi Wei hadn't stealthily poked Lia in the head while she was fighting monsters and forced her to use the 'revelation' of divine grace, the Players would have been wiped out right then and there.
Be that as it may, they did not learn their lesson. When they saw that Nightcry's doppelgangers were about to be wiped out, they were careless again and ended up being blown up. While none of the players were killed on the spot, almost all of them were hit by dozens of Zombie Blight debuffs and were in a predicament of certain death!
Admittedly, Xi Wei's power was enough for him to perform a 'Mechanical Blessing' and dispel the Players' debuffs with the grace of the gods. That would definitely earn him a huge wave of faith, making the red scarf over the Players' chests even brighter.
But after much thought, he gave up on the idea.
The reason was simple: the Players would lose the chance to learn their lesson and become even more reliant on him as a god.
If Xi Wei was a deity who was invincible across the divine realm and reigned supreme over the heavens and earth, it wouldn't matter if his believers relied on him a little. However, Xi Wei's power as a deity right now was so weak that he had to take a detour around the Skeleton God.
That was precisely why he intended to use this opportunity to remind the Players that they must remain vigilant at all times even if they were immortal, and that carelessness was the root of failure.
"But a lesson is a lesson. I still have to reward them for killing monsters … hmmm, what should I get this time …"
The Trinia Forests, the mortal realm.
"Eleena?"
Unlike the crestfallen Edward, Joe noticed that the Zombie Blight in Eleena's status bar had vanished.
Was it a refresh after leveling up?
"Leveling up."
The silver-haired twin-ponytailed girl said solemnly, before solemnly hanging the morningstar (tome) that was still stained with blood on the chain around her waist.
"Hmmm …" Joe didn't know what to say to her.
Jessica was usually the closest to Eleena, but she was still in the elven capital due to Sefarim's matter and wasn't with them as she usually would.
The little girl didn't notice Joe's hesitation, and simply took out a snack from her pocket and stuffed it into her mouth, chewing it carefully before swallowing it.
"Ah …"
"What's wrong?" Joe was surprised.
"I'm full."
Eleena patted Joe's shoulder as he looked as if he was doubting life, and walked up to Edward who was still sprawled on the ground as if burnt out, poking the soft flesh of his waist with her finger.
"What's wrong?" Edward asked, half-dead with less than half his HP left.
"Have everyone come closer." Eleena said seriously.
Even if he found Eleena's words weird, Edward obeyed and had the Players who were still alive move closer. After all, Eleena was a Saintess even if she was just a substitute, and would hold a higher position than a normal believer like Edward …
Then, the little girl took a deep breath, and several silver halos appeared over her body.
Holding her meteor hammer scripture aloft, she shouted, "Survival Tactics: Infinite!"
In the next split second, the silver halos wafted out of her body like smoke, forming the vague silhouette of a little angel that resembled a diamond. It flew around the girl in the air while blowing the little trumpet in its hand.
However, the loudspeaker did not produce any music. Instead, it was like a repeater that kept repeating the shrill cries of 'Infiniti, Infiniti'. Not only did it not have the slightest sense of beauty, but it also gave off a feeling of 'so noisy' …
Even so, the Players who had gathered beneath it felt as if there was something unpleasant in their bodies despite the seemingly ridiculous skill. Like snow under the spring sun, it was rapidly melting away …
As a matter of fact, one could directly see from the status bar that the zombie blight stacked on top of the little angel's horn (Infiniti, Infiniti) was rapidly decreasing and eventually disappeared from the status bar.
In response, the surviving Players could not help cheering in excitement. Only the heavens knew when was the last time they felt like they survived a disaster.
Edward, on the other hand, frowned.
In the past, only a few Players knew that Eleena was a Saintess-in-training with the hidden class, but her identity would definitely be exposed after today's ruckus.
Moreover, Leah, who had turned the tide, was also a hidden class Warrior Princess. Many players would probably try to become a hidden class after today …
That was when a voice silenced the Players who were still celebrating (I know it's a derogatory term).
"Doctor! Is there a doctor here?! " Marni was carrying the unconscious elven girl Selene. "The zombie blight on her hasn't disappeared! She must be treated as soon as possible! "
