Back in the real world, Sheyan had discovered another contact-type infection skill tree, and its final ability was Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever.
Then, he returned to the real world. At that time, no one knew where he had gone. They only knew that he had gone to study diseases, but no one knew what he had done. Sheyan solemnly claimed that this was his trump card, and he would not allow it to be leaked before he used it.
Of course, many people guessed that it was Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever, because the reputation of the incurable disease of the century, AIDS, was so well-known that it made people tremble with fear. Although Sheyan was strong, he might not have the courage to try out the power of this thing.
Unexpectedly, there was a saying that a man should be ruthless to himself. It seemed like Sheyan also knew this saying and had actually put it into practice. He actually climbed up the skill tree in one go, all the way until he obtained the final effect of the 'Contact Disease' skill tree!!
AIDS！
***
[Pestilence Monarch skill tree: Terminal disease of contact-type diseases, AIDS virus]
[You can activate other Pestilence Monarch skill trees to make yourself stronger. Activating other Pestilence Monarch skill trees requires 320 achievement points!]
[Ultimate ability: Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. When you are in close combat with the enemy, you can infect the enemy with the AIDS virus, causing it to proliferate. Under the improvement of the A-virus, the symptoms will increase at an alarming rate.] [The enemy's immune system will collapse layer by layer under the influence of HIV. When the outbreak reaches its peak, a variety of astonishing diseases will appear on the enemy.]
[The virus is transmitted through the air and droplets, so it only takes three seconds for the onset of the virus to take effect.]
[The moment the HIV virus takes effect, the enemy will enter a high-risk period. Their physical defence will drop at a rate of 1 point per second, but they will not feel it. Only when their defence has dropped to only one-third of their original defence will symptoms such as a low fever and sneeze (the symptoms are the same as the effects of an airborne cold).]
[When the enemy's defence drops to 0, the high-risk period is over, and they will officially enter the infection period. During the infection period, the enemy's defence will still drop to a negative number, but the duration of the infection period will double for each point of defence reduction.]
(For example, it takes one second for the defense to drop to negative 1 point, two seconds for negative 2 points, four seconds for negative 3 points, eight seconds for negative 4 points, and so on. When the enemy's defense is in the negative, they will receive more damage than when they are in a defenseless state. For example, when defense is -13 points, even if there is no critical strike, the enemy will receive theoretical damage x 2.)
After entering the infected period, the enemy would experience fatal complications. The first disease that would appear would randomly appear among the following four major symptoms. After the first symptom drains 15% of the enemy's current HP (or 300 seconds), the next terrifying complication would randomly appear.
[Complication A: Kaposi's Sarcoma. Purplish red papules and ulcers form on the surface of the skin. A large number of tumor nodules grow along the veins. The appearance of Kaposi's Sarcoma will cause astonishing damage to the enemy's blood system. The enemy's self-healing ability will be greatly suppressed, and any healing received will be reduced by 75%. At the same time, there is a 50% chance of causing 150 bleeding damage to the enemy every three seconds. Because Kaposi's Sarcoma may cause an impact to the heart, there is a very small chance of causing 3,000 bleeding damage to the enemy! (Because the contestant's body is digitized, this effect will only cause 200 bleeding damage to the contestant if it appears on the contestant.)
[Complication B: Candida albicans esophageal erosion. A terrifying eroded area will form near the esophagus, affecting the enemy's digestive system and making the enemy extremely weak. The enemy's attack power will be reduced by 25%. At the same time, there is a 50% chance of the enemy's throat convulsing due to severe pain every three seconds, dealing 150 damage. Because this disease blocks the absorption of the enemy's digestive system, there is a certain chance that the enemy's skill will fail.]
[Complication C: Pneumosporidium pneumonia (PCP). A large number of pneumosporidium worms will grow in the enemy's lungs, seriously affecting the enemy's respiratory system and causing dizziness. The enemy's hit rate will be greatly reduced by 15%. The pneumosporidium worms will constantly torment the enemy, dealing 50 damage every three seconds. There is also a high chance of a triple critical hit. Because this disease seriously affects the enemy's respiratory system, there is a certain chance that the enemy will suffocate for five seconds, making them unable to attack (but still able to move).]
[Complication D: Parasitic protozoan toxoplasmosis. The enemy's brain will be infected by the parasite Toxoplasma gondii, causing a ring-shaped pattern to appear on the enemy's brain. The pattern will cause severe headache, vomiting and blindness. The enemy will not be able to think normally and will find it difficult to avoid the enemy's fatal attack. Therefore, the enemy's chance of receiving a critical hit from the enemy is increased by 10%. The parasite will also deal 30 damage every three seconds. Because the parasite Toxoplasma gondii causes direct damage to the enemy's brain, the damage is real damage, and the damage will be converted into a healing effect to heal the caster.
When all four major symptoms appear, AIDS will enter its final stage. The enemy's defence will instantly drop to negative N points (N = 2 of the enemy's original defence), and the enemy's maximum HP will be forcibly reduced by one-third. The symptoms of the four major complications will continue to worsen, and the frequency of their attacks will decrease from three seconds to one second!
[This branch ability cannot coexist with other ultimate virus branch abilities!]

Sheyan had obviously been holding back all this time. He waited until Aragon passed the high-risk period of AIDS and his defence was reduced to 0 before he suddenly made his move! That was the kind of person Sheyan was. He would either not make a move, or he would take your life as soon as he made a move!
The exhausted Aragon with zero defence was up against Sheyan, who had already activated his' Peerless' ability, and Evil Sword Apophis, who was so powerful that it made people shudder! This combination could be said to be the worst possible scenario.
There was a saying that went, "When times are poor, the economy shows up." There was another saying that went, "A strong wind knows the strong grass."
At this moment, Aragon, who was coughing up blood, could no longer hide anything. He brought out his final trump card. He raised his right hand, and the originally dim ring on it suddenly burst out with a dazzling light!
It was a double-headed snake ring, shaped like two snakes entangled together. Its eyes were four emeralds, and its heads intersected under a crown surrounded by golden flowers. One was high, while the other was low. This was the symbol of the House of Finarfin. The emeralds ground by the Noldor Elves in Valinor shone with a dazzling brilliance.
This ring had been passed down for thousands of years. It was the symbol of the inheritance of the royal family of Númenor, the Ring of Barahir! What was contained in this ring was the inheritance, fate, and spirit of the past kings of Gondor! It was the symbol of royalty, the symbol of royalty!
If the legendary sword Andúril was similar to the dragon robes of the ancient emperors of China, then the Ring of Barahir was the imperial seal! The past kings of Gondor had to use this ring to command the world and suppress the fate of their country!
At this moment, Aragon had been forced into a desperate situation. The fate of the Regent's line was waning, and the fate of the entire Kingdom of Gondor rested on his shoulders. Therefore, the double-headed snake ring, the Ring of Barahir, suddenly shone brightly.
Even under the cover of Sauron's dark divine power, the illusions of the past Kings of Gondor emerged one after another, shouting loudly. The illusions slowly overlapped, forming the majestic illusion of Isildur who killed Sauron. Isildur raised his scepter and smashed it down at Sheyan!
The Wrath of the King!
This attack was completely natural. Although the scepter seemed to be moving slowly, there was actually an irresistible feeling in the way it fell. The flow of time here had slowed down by thousands or even tens of thousands of times!
Although Sheyan could contend against Aragorn's protagonist's destiny, what he had to face now was a fatal blow from the combined spirits of the protagonists of the past Kings of Gondor. This blow pierced through the barrier of time and space. It was unstoppable and unavoidable. It was as if fate had descended upon him. He could only endure it!
This blow landed heavily on Sheyan's body, although it was only an illusion! It was just an illusion, but Sheyan could clearly hear the voice in his ear. It was a voice that made his heart tremble with fear.
[The opponent has attempted an instant death attack on you. Check in progress …. Check failed. Instant death effect successful!]
[You have lost 588,173 HP!!]
The direct result of this strike was that Sheyan was still frozen in place after being hit by the scepter, but an identical black illusion in his body was blown away. Although the black illusion struggled hard to return to his body, the scepter also exploded. The black illusion that represented Sheyan's soul also shattered in an instant! It shattered into millions of pieces that were like glass!
This meant that not only did the soul leave the body, it also meant that the soul had shattered. It was like when Gandalf fought the Balrog. Although his body was shattered, he could still rebuild his body and evolve with his powerful soul.
But if the soul was shattered, it would be completely annihilated!
However, the emerald on the Ring of Barahir, the symbol of the snake's eye, also shattered!
"Huff, huff, huff." Aragorn was curled up in a corner. His face was covered in blood, and he was panting like a wild beast. He no longer had the demeanor of a king. His body trembled violently, both because of the pain of the disease and because of the destruction of the Ring of Barahir. Without the accumulation of several generations of emperors, the ring would not be able to be restored.
But at that moment, a shrill sound suddenly rang out in the air, as if many extremely thin and sharp weapons were slashing through the air at high speed. Upon closer inspection, one would see that they were blood-red scythes!
The scythes of the Grim Reaper!
Every time these scythes slashed through the air, the air would whimper. Countless broken soul fragments would flow back through the cracks and reassemble in the air …. Eight joined four, four joined two, two joined together, and finally pieced together Sheyan's intact soul, which bounced back into his body.
Innate ability: 'Death's Lament' activated!
How … .how is this possible!!!
When Aragorn's last resort was broken, he almost roared in anger, as if he was questioning the unfairness of fate. However, Sheyan, who seemed to be in a daze, suddenly burst into action. Apophis in his hand drew several sharp lines that pierced into Aragorn's throat in an instant.
'Extinction'!
The sword was so swift that before the anger on Aragorn's face could turn into pain, the sword was so vicious that it directly smashed Aragorn's Adam's apple, vocal cords, trachea, arteries, veins, and everything else in his neck into pieces!
***
In Mordor in the distance, Sauron's magic eye suddenly opened wide. The red light around it surged like flames. The magic eye was originally 20 to 30 meters in diameter, but for some reason, it had more than doubled in size. The outer part of the magic eye was as bright as the sun, but the inner part of the magic eye was glowing brightly.
"… .What a sweet taste of the soul! What a sweet taste of blood! The taste of the blood of the direct descendants of Númenor is always so delicious! Ahhh!! This kind of bone-deep joy, this kind of intense stimulation, it's like a Silmarillion that I can't put down! "
Not far away, Mount Doom was also affected by Sauron's joyful mood. It erupted briefly, and fiery red magma overflowed from its edges. The Orcs of Mordor were also stimulated by Sauron's dark power. At least thousands of them advanced in an instant.
For Sauron, his ambition to unify Middle Earth thousands of years ago was blocked by a naive Númenorean royal family. This was almost a demon in his heart. Isildur's direct bloodline was cut off, and he died in the place where his power gathered. This was the highest sacrifice of both soul and flesh! So, as if the knot in his heart had been untied, his power naturally soared.
***
Gandalf, who was recuperating in the White Tower of Minas Tirith, suddenly sat up and gasped for breath. He looked as terrified as if the One Ring was on his finger.
Such an action obviously affected his severe injuries, so he coughed wildly and gasped for breath. Blood even flowed down his beard and onto his white robe. The contrast between the white robe and the red blood was particularly striking.
But Gandalf paid no attention to this. He frowned and looked out of the window. Thick clouds were churning in the sky. With the defeat of the Orc army, Sauron's Curse, which had shrouded the battlefield and blocked the sunlight, had loosened a little. Dim sunlight even began to shine through the clouds. But for some reason, the dark power suddenly flourished again. It was a full-scale counterattack!
Suddenly, a mournful comet flew past Gandalf's vision from the west. The long tail of the comet looked particularly desolate. Gandalf suddenly lost his composure. To the west was the birthplace of the Dúnedain. This omen marked the fall of the leader of the Dúnedain! An extremely ominous thought suddenly flashed through his mind … Could it be!!!
"How is this possible! We clearly have the upper hand. The Elven Prince and the strongest Dwarven warrior are protecting him, and the soul of the former King of Númenor is watching over him. Even the Orc commander Gothmog has been killed, and there are still tens of thousands of Orcs guarding him. The remnants of the enemy are still holed up in the Source of Darkness hall.
***
On the incomparably tall Tower of Orthanc.
Saruman's white hair fluttered in the wind. The Maia who had lived for several eras suddenly lost his composure. He placed one hand on the Crystal of Truth and muttered to himself.
"How is this possible?? Fate has been overturned? Could it be a vision sent to me by Sauron? No, no! This is indeed the aura of the blood of the Númenorean royal family. The anger and unwillingness in the soul cannot be faked! "
A flash of lightning suddenly flashed past, illuminating Saruman's face. He waved his staff, and the darkness was lifted like a veil. A large number of Uruk-hai were gathering under the Tower of Orthanc.
Saruman had already begun to harbor some thoughts of rebellion after the crushing defeat at the Pelennor Fields. But with the Crystal of Truth's help, Sauron once again took the dominant position. Saruman did not hesitate to send out his elite Uruk-hai troops to join the battle under Sauron's command.
These elites might not be able to catch up with the Battle of the Pelennor Fields, which was still struggling at death's door, but Uruk-hai were born to be the best commanders. They were undoubtedly the backbone and backbone of the Orc army, allowing their combat effectiveness to increase by leaps and bounds.

"Pa La!" A loud sound rang out. It was as if a balloon filled with water had suddenly burst open!
Under the frenzied attacks of Gimli and Legolas, the dark gold leech finally reached its limit. With a loud crack, it exploded. A large amount of green viscous liquid splashed wildly over hundreds of square meters, accompanied by a pungent fishy smell.
Legolas, who had always been a clean freak, threw caution to the wind. Ignoring the black, sticky liquid on his face, he rushed forward. Gimli, on the other hand, was faster than him. He took the lead and stepped through the door. But as soon as he stepped in, he froze, as if he had been petrified!
Just because Gimli froze did not mean that time had stopped. Fortunately, Legolas was quick enough to pull him back. A blood-red light flashed, and an ordinary-looking longsword pierced through his shoulder and came out from his back. The blade was stained with blood, and sharp lines could be seen around the blade from time to time. It seemed that even the space around the blade had been severely damaged.
Then, Gimli was kicked in the chest. Hmm, a kick to the chest that a normal human would kick in the chest happened to land on his face. He was sent flying, but even so, Gimli's expression was still dull and incredulous!
Then, everyone around him understood the reason for Gimli's stupor.
A large hand reached out from the darkness.
The hand was holding a strand of hair!
And under the hair was a head!
A Dúnedain, the descendant of Isildur, Strider, the son of Arathorn, the commander of the Dúnedain, the leader of the Dúnedain, the leader of the Elven Princess Elwin, the King of Gondor, the wielder of the sacred sword Andúril! The head of Aragorn, the king with the protagonist's luck!
A bloody head that had been severed from the neck!
Then, the owner of the large hand appeared in front of everyone. It was a burly young man with a pair of burning eyes and unruly eyebrows. He looked around. Although he was surrounded by an army of thousands, his eyes regarded these people as mere chickens and dogs.
"Next!"
Said Sheyan in a concise manner. He then retreated back into the Source of Darkness hall. The few arrows that came after him could only fly into the darkness without any aim. They posed no threat to him at all.
Although Sheyan had lost his biggest trump card, 'Death's Lament', he had not used his honorary dosage + 'Gloryheal' yet. Were those not trump cards?
More importantly, how many people could the enemy find who were as strong as Aragorn to attack him? Especially when Aragorn was killed in such an environment! How big of a blow would that be to the enemy's morale?
More importantly, of the two remaining powerful heroes in the Fellowship of the Ring, Gimli, the Dwarf King, had been seriously injured and would not be able to come back in the short term. The only one left was Legolas, whom Sheyan had deliberately kept alive …. Legolas might be very good at archery and could be considered the number one killer, but in front of Sheyan who had the 'Hedgehog' milestone, he was nothing but a weakling. Legolas couldn't possibly abandon his bow and charge forward with his dagger, could he? That was simply unrealistic!
Of course, there was also the possibility that some human contestants might come to test the waters. However, Sheyan was now guarding the entrance of the Source of Darkness hall. Even without the bonus of 'Peerless', after activating his ultimate ability, 'AIDS', he could hold back ten thousand enemies all by himself!
Moreover, Sheyan had calculated that Aragorn's death would be enough to shock these people for at least ten minutes. Coupled with the time they had spent delaying the battle, the drugs he had released from the outside, and the additional healing effect of the Source of Darkness hall, Party Ace would be fully recovered in about half an hour!
More importantly, Reef had not triggered the 'Magma of Mount Doom' (Ice) effect yet. What he had triggered was' Life-Link ', so his HP had already recovered to half. If Sheyan was in a pinch, Reef could immediately come to his aid. It would not be difficult for them to hold their ground.
More importantly, the tough stance he displayed would definitely cause the other party to have misgivings and refrain from shooting at the rat for fear of breaking the vases!
The best part was that the Source of Darkness hall would be breached in four or five hours! If a person had lost all hope, they would have no choice but to charge forward, even if they had to bleed profusely. But if there was another way out, they would naturally choose the easier one.
