Infinite Terror: Infinite Reversal

Chapter 331 Demon Ashes
After Zero and Overlord completed their enhancements, everyone looked at them expectantly.

Zero's expression remained unchanged: "Let's test its power in the basement later."

“This ability can’t really be demonstrated visually…” Mu Xiang pushed up his glasses, then looked at Ba Wang, “What about you?”

The Overlord took a few steps to the side to ensure everyone was at a safe distance, then let out a low growl. His already imposing body swelled even further, instantly transforming into a gigantic werewolf over three meters tall. The Annihilation Wolf hadn't provided him with any additional physical enhancements, which was a rather disappointing aspect of his existence.

A faint purplish-gray light could be seen flowing across the thick, armor-like wolf fur. That was the energy contained within the Annihilation Demon Wolf's body, but before this, the Overlord had only instinctively used it on its claws and teeth.

The Overlord has no talent for manipulating energy, so it would be too much to ask him to figure out this energy on his own... Therefore, Demon Ash had no choice but to exchange for it.

Based on Zheng Zha's experience, the main god absolutely does not need or want you to exchange for all the supporting skills... As you become more familiar with your own bloodline and utilize the energy within your body, mastering all the techniques in one's life is the right path.

"For example, I only exchanged for two C-level skills, so I don't need any other high-level skills at all!" Zheng Zha once said, and then received eye rolls from everyone.

At this moment, however, the Overlord's use of Annihilation Magic Power underwent a qualitative change... of course, with the help of this B-level skill.

The enormous wolf head was expressionless, but everyone could sense the Overlord's focused state. Then, a layer of purplish-gray light emanated and enveloped the Overlord's body.

This form of expression is very similar to a protective shield, but within this halo, there are dark star-like points of light flowing around, as if they were dead ashes.

Mu Xiang flashed and reached out to touch the halo.

Amidst the teeth-grinding sound, Mu Xiang's hand passed through the halo, then burst into specks of golden light.

"This halo concentrates the power of annihilation magic... it's clearly not just for defense; charging in with it can also damage ordinary enemies," Mu Xiang said. "So what about the enchantment effects?"

Overlord nodded, then drew a tubular pulse catapult from his back. His electromagnetic individual armor possessed exceptional resilience, remaining completely encased even in werewolf form. Unless under special circumstances, the tubular pulse catapult and other weapons were mounted behind this armor.

The long, streamlined gun barrel was bathed in the halo and immediately took on the same color. Dark specks that swirled within the halo adhered to the gun barrel, as if branded into it, and it was these specks that gave the gun barrel the same halo.

The next moment, the Overlord began firing at an open area.

Everyone simultaneously looked at the Overlord's hand, only to find that the enormous wolf claw had shrunk somewhat. Although still much thicker than a human hand, it was still enough to control the gun. When the "thud" of the needle-like bullets hitting the ground rang out, everyone's gaze finally turned to the ground... and then a collective gasp filled the air.

The ground, which should have been riddled with pinholes, did not collapse due to the fine bullet marks. Instead, it appeared as if it had been splashed with a corrosive substance. The fine bullet holes, after appearing for a moment, turned into craters, quickly merging into a crater that spread outwards.

"That's fucking a magic attack, isn't it?" Zheng Zha muttered. When he felt Mu Xiang's gaze, he immediately tensed up: "What do you want to do?"

Mu Xiang pushed up his glasses: "To test its penetration of magical defenses, of course we have to invite the most professional person in this field, right?" Lori hadn't realized the seriousness of the matter yet; she was just holding Zheng Zha's arm, seemingly with a hint of pride for him.

Zheng Zha coughed and said, "Hey, let's talk about it in the basement this afternoon."

Mu Xiang said with a half-smile, "Of course, of course."

"Seriously speaking, this thing is definitely an unexpected surprise," Mu Xiang said seriously. "For example, when the Overlord first appeared, he was only wearing a single-soldier armor and carrying a C-level high-tech weapon... After he demonstrated his formidable firepower, the other side would definitely have to take him seriously. And this attention is based on the premise that he is a high-tech weapon user."

Zheng Zha muttered, "Then when some unlucky guy comes along and wants to deal with him easily, he'll have to consume Annihilation Magic Energy, right?"

"It's not just about annihilation magic energy. Even if the annihilation wolf bloodline doesn't focus on the body, its foundation is still high-level werewolf blood... The one who can instantly kill the Overlord would probably be a fourth-tier powerhouse. If the Overlord is facing this situation, it can only mean that the three of us are all dead." Mu Xiang shrugged.

Liu Xi looked at Mu Xiang: "Do I also need to analyze the range of the tubular pulse catapult?"

“Smart, I don’t need to tell you.” Mu Xiang smiled.

"Thank you for your recognition," Liu Xi said calmly.

Seeing that the Overlord had deactivated his transformation, Long Taobing said excitedly, "It's my turn. I've already made my choices. I'll enhance two high-level skills."

Zhang Heng muttered to himself, "How did you manage to enhance the resurrection spell?"

“Unfortunately, resurrection is a skill exclusive to Holy Priests. Although the restrictions imposed by the Supreme God on the Holy, Discipline, and Shadow schools are not as strong as in the game, exchanging for items across schools costs twice as much, and anything involving resurrection is extremely expensive… For example, the Holy Priest’s inherent ability, Soul of Redemption, requires two A-level side quests.” Long Taobing sighed.

Mu Xiang pushed up his glasses: "In fact, the Soul of Redemption is much more fragile than the game's setting... In the game, you can ignore the consumption and release healing at will. Although you can't attack, you can't be attacked either. But the Soul of Redemption provided by the God cannot be immune to energy attacks, and if you don't return to the God's space when the Soul of Redemption ends, you will die directly."

"No wonder you said no one in the God Space would exchange for this... A double A-level skill only allows you to move around a little longer and help your teammates heal, but it can't even revive you. It's really too stingy," Zheng Zha sighed.

Long Taobing smiled wryly, "As for the Resurrection spell... it starts at S-rank. As a Discipline Priest, I need two S-rank side quests to exchange for it. I couldn't even get that price by selling myself twice..."

“But if we have enough side quests, we might actually consider this,” Mu Xiang said seriously. “Zheng Zha and I are only one S-level bloodline enhancement away. Once our enhancements are maxed out, we can provide you with a lot of support later.”

Only Mu Xiang truly understood the value of the priest's S-rank spell, Resurrection... While it has a time limit and cannot resurrect a person to full health, even leaving them with a weakness that can only be fully healed upon returning to the God's Space, it also does not count against the God's resurrection count.

This can undo many sacrifices.
