Chapter 847: Mirror of Nitocris

——The next exchange must be considered carefully.

Although there was no hidden meaning in Chu Xuan's tone, everyone in the Zhongzhou team seemed to feel an invisible pressure, because the next battle they were about to face would no longer be a small fight like before, and they had to convert every side story into current combat power as much as possible... until a few seconds later, the first exchanger stood up.

It’s Zhao Yingkong.

It was not Luo Gandao, who had the least experience, nor was it Zheng Zha, who was the first to bear the brunt most of the time, but Zhao Yingkong, who had always seemed to be vaguely independent of the team and often acted alone.

"I now have an A-level side story and a C-level side story, as well as about 41,000 reward points."

This girl, who usually doesn't show her emotions, stood up at this moment, contrary to her usual behavior, and said in the same tone as always: "Although my highest Watcher bloodline is double A-level, when I was looking it up just now, I found a new upper-level skill exchange... S-level special skill enhancement, Moonlight War God."

Hearing this bloodline name that he had never heard of in the World of Warcraft game, Yang Yun was stunned for a moment, and then he looked it up according to the query results from the main god: "Moonlight War God, Elune's followers pray to the dark side of the true God, transforming their anger and hatred towards evil into their own strength, awakening the power of the black moon in their bodies, and transforming into the Moonlight War God to destroy all enemies..."

"You need to strengthen the 'Watcher' or 'Moon Priestess' bloodline to the highest level before you can redeem it... You need an S-level side story, and the reward points are 30,000."

"It looks like some kind of magic."

After reading the introduction of Moonlight War God from the Lord God, Zheng Zha made a comment: "Pray to the power of the true god and transform into Moonlight War God... But why haven't I heard of Elune having a dark side? The power of the black moon sounds very cool."

“People have joys and sorrows, separations and reunions, the moon waxes and wanes, and where there is light there is darkness. There is nothing strange about that.”

Yang Yun shook his head: "Since the Moon Priestess and the Watcher are the two sides of the same coin, it is normal for Elune, the Moon Goddess, to have two faces... The Buddha, who usually has a kind face, can also have a face like a Vajra with angry eyes."

"This exchange was not displayed at the Lord God's place when I checked last time."

Zhao Yingkong glanced at Yang Yun calmly and continued, "It may be related to the light of my awakened soul... Yang Yun, do you think I should redeem this skill?"

Yang Yun was quite surprised when Zhao Yingkong asked him by name.

Although Zhao Yingkong's tone did not change at all and was still as cold and clear as before, Yang Yun had a feeling that something seemed to have changed in this assassin girl... Not only did the vague indifference in her tone disappear without a trace, but there was also some extremely small but real change.

——Perhaps breaking up with Zhao Zhuikong also allowed Zhao Yingkong to move on from the past and start a new chapter in her life.

Facing Zhao Yingkong's inquiring eyes, Yang Yun responded with a gentle smile: "If this was before the team battle, I might suggest you to exchange it. But now, you no longer need to become a Moonlit God of War who 'destroys all enemies'."

Doubt, expectation, relief, awkwardness, and even a little bit of uneasiness... He didn't know if it was because he had broken through to the intermediate level of the fourth stage and was able to feel other people's inner thoughts better, or because Zhao Yingkong's words really conveyed so many things. In short, Yang Yun could inexplicably feel these emotions from Zhao Yingkong.

But no matter what, Zhao Yingkong's change is definitely for the better, so Yang Yun calmly gave the answer: "Whether it's revenge or atonement, everything has come to an end, hasn't it?"

"...Yes, everything is over." After hearing Yang Yun's answer, Zhao Yingkong looked dazed and confused for a moment. But then, she lowered her head slightly, and then raised it again the next moment, and asked, "So, what kind of enhancement do you want to recommend to me?"

"Uh, wait a minute... Since you have awakened the light of your heart, I think you should strengthen it with it as the core."

Thinking about the differences and advantages between Zhao Yingkong's new spiritual light "Mirror of the Soul" and the original "Mirror of Two", Yang Yun looked through the exchange catalog at the Lord God's place and soon got the result: "How about this one? Fragmentation Magic - Mirror of Nitocris."

"The fragment magic, the Mirror of Nitocris, comes from the world of Cthulhu. It is one of the many magics recorded in the Book of the Dead. It can use energy to create a magic mirror of the underworld between life and death."

"It can turn reality into illusion. When attacked, the main body will be transformed into a virtual mirror to bear the attack, and the main body can be transferred to the space reflected by it. It can also turn life into death. According to the Book of the Dead, matter, soul, and even time and space are all a kind of fluctuation. The fluctuation can be offset by the phase-reversed mirror fluctuation. Based on this principle, the Underworld Magic Mirror can annihilate the existence of the living world with the death fluctuation of the netherworld... It requires an A-level branch plot, and the reward points are 15,000."

"..."

After reading the introduction of this exchange, Zhao Yingkong couldn't help but be slightly surprised. Using the characteristics of the "mirror" to achieve the effects of space movement and existence annihilation, this exchange seemed to be created specifically for him.

Maybe one day, Zhao Yingkong will be able to directly reflect the light of others' souls with the "heart mirror reflecting the soul", but at least he cannot do this now. The light of the soul given by the two deceased people is a consumable, and this exchange can greatly reduce its consumption, and even accelerate his further development of the light of the soul. No matter from which aspect, it is a very suitable exchange for himself, but...

"What's wrong?" Seeing Zhao Yingkong's hesitant look, Yang Yun couldn't help but ask puzzledly.

"nothing."

Zhao Yingkong shook his head. "With the Hades Helmet, Yama Blade, and the Mirror of Nitocris, am I getting closer to the 'God of the Underworld'? But this name doesn't seem to fit me very well..."

——Especially, compared to the "life" you have been living...

"Well, I think it's very suitable for you as an assassin."

Although he didn't hear the second half of Zhao Yingkong's sentence, the first half alone was completely beyond Yang Yun's expectations. He couldn't help but look at Zhao Yingkong. She was not the type of person who would care about such things before.

——Could it be that because the knot in their hearts has been untied, they have become more cheerful, and at the same time have awakened to the aesthetic sense that should belong to this age group?

Speculating in his mind, Yang Yun scratched his head in distress. He never thought that Zhao Yingkong would hesitate because of such a thing, but he still said: "Of course, if you don't like it, there are other options, such as the 'Mirror' card in "Cardcaptor Sakura", or..."

"no need."

Zhao Yingkong did not let Yang Yun continue talking. Instead, he looked at his distressed expression and smiled: "It doesn't matter, let's exchange it like this. After all-"

——As long as you feel it is appropriate, that is enough.
