Bone King: Welcome the Birth of the King.

Chapter 474 Equipment Combination Skills: You're Clearly Not Damaged at All

Tang Zheng's speculation about the [Chosen Knight]'s trump card, while not leaning towards something similar to "Death Bell".

However, it's not entirely impossible!

"By choosing the 'Wind God - Glorious Angel Cat - Meow' weapon, Zesshi Zetsumei must have already considered tactical countermeasures."

Tang Zheng's lips curled up slightly, finding it increasingly interesting. "At least, tank-style equipment can resist high-intensity damage caused by magic and last longer."

Wow!
The three-headed hellhound, about the size of a small house, charged at Death in a ferocious and furious manner, like a wild bull.

The summoned monster possesses a certain degree of self-awareness; its existence is meant to protect the summoner, yet it is easily bypassed by the enemy before it.

This was its mistake!

"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"

The three heads of Cerberus opened their blood-red maws, their scarlet eyes fixed on Death's Edge, as its entire body crashed down like a mountain.

A fierce aura surged forth!

Jue Si Jue Ming's voice was high-pitched as he raised the Dawn Wall Golden Shield in his hand and slammed it forward: "Get out of my way, you ugly bastard!"

Boom!
Cerberus clashed once again with the three rotating shields surrounding Zeshi Zemei.

The heavy impact echoed through the valley.

Hiss—hiss!

The black boots of Zesshi Zesshi dragged on the ground, but he did not attack Cerberus.

It is foolish to waste time and energy on summoning monsters in order to save energy.

far away.

Tang Zheng's eyes flashed, and he thought to himself, "So that's how the shield works."

"Ninth-Tier Magic: Crimson Nova!"

The crimson lotus flames suddenly ignited Zesshi Zesshi and Cerberus, turning the two into crimson fireballs in an instant!

The scorching heat and flames illuminated the dark valley!
"A shield skill called 'Triple Heaven'."

"It summons a three-sided rotating shield that can not only block physical attacks but also deflect them."

Tang Zheng recalled the changes that occurred when Cerberus attacked:
"However, there should be a certain upper limit. The Cerberus's continuous attacks have made the shield's color fade a bit. In addition, the reaction force generated by the attacks cannot be offset."

Whoosh!
Suddenly.

Within the crimson flames, a figure leaped up from the flames.

"flight"

"Hahaha!"

Behind the armor of absolute death, blue energy-patterned wings unfurled, and flames erupted from its entire body as it soared into the air.

"That ugly three-headed dog doesn't have the ability to fly, sir."

Absolute Death, suspended in mid-air, let out a hearty laugh; the "Crimson Nova" flames left only faint marks on the divine artifact-grade armor.

"Crimson Nova - Earth"

Tang Zheng began chanting, then said with a faint smile, "Warriors with the ability to fly are indeed a bit more troublesome."

boom!
Under the passive ability of elemental transformation.

"Crimson Nova," the strongest single-target fire magic, transformed into a mass of brownish-brown quicksand that bombarded Zetsumei's body.

"The light of dawn will surely reside in our hearts!"

With a desperate shout, Jue Si Jue Ming activated his armor skill: "Unyielding Oath!"

A bright white light flashed across the surface of the armor!
Desperately enduring the magical attack, he charged towards Tang Zheng.

"Crimson New Star - Wind"

A high-speed rotating device formed from condensed wind elements crashed against the deadly beings in mid-air like a tornado.

Zesshi Zesshi was not greatly affected; his body only swayed briefly.

"Crimson Nova - Water"

A large water sphere appears out of nowhere, enveloping the enemy inside. The pure water flow can not only cause the drowning status effect, but also affect the speed of enemies inside the water sphere!

"Combo complete," Tang Zheng murmured.

The passive skill "Ancient Wisdom of Mutual Generation" for the [Immortal] class increases the power of any subsequent use of four-element magic by 15% after completing a combo of four elements.

Achieving this is not difficult for the average player, but it's not easy either!
The caster must master four elemental spells and must choose the appropriate one based on the enemy, which further increases the difficulty.

Tang Zheng, however, did not need to go through such trouble.

"Elemental Attribute Change" allows you to replace elemental magic with any four elemental attributes. The same elemental magic can be used as four different elements!

only……

Tang Zheng frowned almost imperceptibly.

"Super Slash!"

Zesshi Zesshi's body remained completely unaffected as he swiftly swung the Brilliant Holy Golden Sword in his hand:
"These spells seem weaker and weaker! Hehehe, is the master holding back?"

The giant water sphere was split open!

Having desperately broken free from the magic's influence, the gaze from behind the mask, now excited and burning, once again rushed towards her delicate face.

"The power of magic has indeed weakened."

Tang Zheng also expected to realize this.

"Crimson Nova" is the strongest single-target fire magic, but its power becomes average when transformed into one of the other three attributes.

In other words, the bonus from fire magic is lost!

"It seems that not all elemental magic can be transformed into other elements."

The thought flashed through Tang Zheng's mind quickly, but his hands didn't slow down at all: "You're too smug now."

"Tenth-Rank Magic - Seventh Imperial Censor - Fire!"

The spell was originally an area-of-effect lightning spell, but now, as the spell is activated...

Over the sky.

Seven magic circles, each about one meter in size, floated in mid-air, emitting a dazzling red light.

boom! boom!
Each magic circle emitted a pillar of blazing fire at an astonishingly high temperature, instantly turning a large area into a sea of ​​fire.

Zetsuki was instantly engulfed in flames, the astonishing heat transmitted through his armor, making his skin scalding.

"The power of this magic... is completely different from before!"

Zetsumei's vision was distorted by the high temperature, causing the air in front of her to become warped, thus activating the power of her armor once more.
"The gift of courage!"

It's a skill that can increase both physical and magical resistance simultaneously.

"Enhanced Magic Resistance!"

"Magic resistance greatly enhanced!"

Two martial arts techniques are activated.

Without further delay, a series of magical attacks was enough for her to reach Tang Zheng, and she swung her glorious holy golden sword:
"Criminal judgment!"

"Heretical conviction!"

The ability of the [Heretical Inquisitor] class can increase the mana consumption and spell failure rate of spellcasters who have different beliefs from oneself.

of course!

Given her level of magic, the effects of these two skills would be limited, but even if they had some effect, it would be worthwhile.

The golden light of the Brilliant Holy Golden Sword ripped through the air with deadly force, slashing fiercely towards Tang Zheng's neck.

Swish!
Tang Zheng's figure disappeared.

Behind the helmet of absolute death, there was no surprise on his face, but a hint of astonishment appeared the next moment. He then...

The moment Tang Zheng disappeared, a bronze-colored feather phantom appeared, followed by the figure of Cerberus.

Not teleportation?
It's a swap!
—The magical item "Hilmi's Messenger".

Jue Si Jue Ming hadn't forgotten that she was the one who gave this magical item to Tang Zheng; it was a means for those old guys to win Tang Zheng over.

Looking back now, it's really laughable!

puff!
The glorious holy golden sword pierced the tough skin of Cerberus, and bright red blood gushed from the wound.

"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"

The three-headed hellhound roared in agony, pushing its sharp claws forward as its three heads opened their mouths and lunged to bite down.

"what happened!"

Zesshi Zesshi drew the Brilliant Holy Golden Sword, flapped its wings, and soared into the air to dodge the attack of Cerberus, its eyes filled with deep confusion:
"Why didn't you use teleportation, but instead used a magical item?"

Tang Zheng's ability to dodge her attack was expected, but his decision not to use teleportation and instead to exchange items using a magical item was unexpected.

I'd like to think about this further!

A large-scale attack reappeared in the sky.

"Seventh Imperial Censor - Earth"

A magic circle radiating brown light appeared, and before the attack could land, more magic circles radiating elemental light appeared in the sky.

"Magic Without Chanting - Seventh Imperial Censor - Wind"

Fourteen magic circles appeared densely packed in the air.

See this scene!
A chill ran down Zetsumei's spine, his pupils dilated, and his previously composed expression turned blank: "Isn't that a bit much?"

Boom! !

The wide-range attack, a mixture of earth and wind elements, swept through the air like a torrent.

The valley within the attack range was instantly reduced to ruins, with huge plumes of smoke rising into the sky, and flying debris and deafening roars filling the air.

A hundred meters away.

"The Seventh Imperial Censor seems to be quite powerful when used for elemental transformation."

Tang Zheng glanced at the direction now reduced to ruins, a slight smirk playing on his lips. He muttered to himself with satisfaction, then recalled how he had dodged the attack earlier:
"Combo attacks are indeed not very suitable for single-player combat."

really.

Only through combat can we discover easily overlooked areas more quickly.

The magic combo technique is indeed good, but if it's like before, how can the four elements be maintained in a combo?

Tang Zheng was unable to use the "teleport" magic to evade, and had to resort to magical items to move around.

This could actually create some constraints on oneself!

"The key issue is still about making choices."

Bang!
Amidst the dust, a disheveled figure flew out once more.

"Oh, a double 10th-tier magic enhancement attack is still enough to hold you off. You should thank your equipment, Absolute Death."

Tang Zheng looked ahead and said with a smile, "If that's all there is to it, then you'll just keep getting beaten up."

"When it comes to firepower, no profession can rival the magic caster!"

Without the equipment of the six gods, the series of magical attacks just now would have been enough to render Zesshi Zesshi incapable of fighting.

"As expected of your lord!"

"You're really strong, even though you don't have any decent equipment."

Despite the pain in his body, Zesshi Zesshi grinned and said, "Even as a magic caster, I don't have a basic magic wand."

"However! Underestimating me will also be a disadvantage. I originally planned to deplete your magic power before attacking, but now I have to do it ahead of schedule!"

Tang Zheng's smile deepened, and he opened his arms.

It's always good to be prepared!

"Let me see your methods, Absolute Death."

Tang Zheng let out a hearty laugh and looked directly at the figure hovering in the air: "Come on!"

"Then—I'm going!"

Zesshi Zesshi roared, raising the Dawn Wall Golden Shield in his hand and thrusting it towards the sky:
"Trial at Dawn!"

A rich, holy light burst forth from the shield.

In an instant.

At the four corners of Tang Zheng's location—east, west, south, and north—a cross, over three meters tall and radiating a sacred aura, simultaneously materialized.

Splash—splash—

The clanging of chains echoed from the four enormous crosses, followed by a lightning-fast attack that shot towards Tang Zheng, who was positioned at the center.

"A trump card?"

"It doesn't seem like it; it should be an equipment skill."

Tang Zheng was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected that a legendary item would possess such an astonishing skill that seemed to have a massive and imposing presence.
"High-level teleportation!"

I vaguely sensed that this skill might have a control effect, so I decided to use a higher-level teleportation spell instead.

Tang Zheng's body surged with magical power, causing him to sway slightly, but he remained standing in the same spot.

"The teleportation failed... no, it was a forced delay?"

The light emanating from the four crosses shone even brighter!

—Splash!

Thick chains bound Tang Zheng from four directions simultaneously, but the chains seemed to become illusory the moment they tightened, and actually passed right through Tang Zheng's body.

"It's not restrained... It's movement resistance, is there even such an ability?!"

Zesshi Zesshi's expression changed slightly. He quickly raised the Brilliant Holy Golden Sword in his right hand and forcefully struck the Dawn Wall Golden Shield with the blade.
"However, delaying the activation of the spell is enough!"

"This is a move that can only be used when all three pieces of equipment are worn at the same time—Judgment Reflection!"

hum!
With a flick of his wrist, Jue Si Jue Ming pointed the Brilliant Holy Golden Sword at Tang Zheng and roared, "I'll return all the magical damage I just suffered to you!"

"You'll have to bear it!"

A blinding beam of light, mixed with elemental energy, erupted from the blade of the magnificent holy golden sword, hurtling towards us with astonishing power.

Rumble!
Rocks flew everywhere, and the mountain walls on both sides trembled.

The terrifying energy blasted a crater tens of meters wide at the location where Tang Zheng was standing, and the mountain wall on one side was also severely damaged by the aftershocks.

Jue Si Jue Ming stared intently at the location of the pit.

As the smoke disperses.

"A move that converts previous damage into attacks and then releases them."

Tang Zheng came into view, accompanied by that familiar voice: "What a troublesome method."

"Don't joke around—!"

Zesshi Zetsumei's hands trembled, whether from excitement or overwhelming elation, it was hard to tell.
"You're completely unharmed!"

Tang Zheng stood unharmed in the center of the pit, except for his torn clothes.

Do not!
It wasn't that he wasn't injured; a glance at the attribute panel revealed that his magic power had dropped by nearly 200 points out of nowhere.

Tier 5 Magic: Damage Transference!

A unique magic from another world, developed by the destroyed nation, that can convert damage received into a loss of magical power.
