Life Dungeon Game

He Ao's heart sank.

Just as he had predicted, his good friend's temper flared up again this time, as if divine intervention had struck.

"how did you do that?"

The surging wave of blood rushed towards He Ao again, but He Ao dodged it.

Ilya also felt the surging pressure descending, but she clearly sensed that it was just a communication ritual array. Although it was made a bit larger, it was still just a communication ritual array.

She had never heard of summoning a god through a communication ritual without any offerings.

"Perhaps it's because I have a better relationship with the god of knowledge."

He shrugged, dodging her blood wave attack and creating some distance between them.

At this moment, a gray, tightly closed eye gradually emerged from the 'ripples' of grayish-white light in the sky.

Immediately afterwards, the eye turned in the direction of He Ao, and the eyelid twitched slightly, as if it was about to open.

At that moment, both Heo and Ilya felt an immense sense of dread, as if death was about to arrive in the next second.

Both of them paused for a moment.

But soon, a gray-black mist appeared, obscuring the enormous eye.

That is the power of death.

The enormous, pitch-black vortex began to move toward the grayish-white light, seemingly trying to devour it.

Seeing this, He Ao breathed a sigh of relief.

According to the information Christos gave him, Death never seemed to descend with other gods; He seemed to be a solitary and extremely possessive god.

Since Heo, as the opposing side, 'summoned' the God of Knowledge, Death naturally couldn't possibly believe that Heo summoned this God of Knowledge to commit suicide.

He naturally assumed that Hoo was a follower of the god of knowledge, who had summoned the god of knowledge to compete with Him for the sacrifices.

The eyes in the sky that had been 'watching' He Ao trembled violently after being stirred by the vortex.

Following the faint connection he still had with the God of Knowledge, He Ao could feel a surge of intense anger traveling through that connection.

This anger was directed at both him and at death.

The gray light exploded instantly in the vortex of dark clouds, and then was swallowed up by the vortex.

Two terrifying pressures clashed in the sky.

As the closest point to the sky in the vicinity, the mining conglomerate building beneath He'ao's feet trembled, and tiny cracks appeared.

Generally, when gods descend, they do not use their true form; they either use a sub-form or a projection of themselves.

Such high-level summons must be projections of gods.

However, the aftershocks of the battle between the divine projections, which had not yet fully descended, had already created such terrifying pressure. He felt that he had gained a deeper understanding of the power of great beings.

But this was not the time for him to explore the mysterious world. He looked up at Ilya Ann in front of him.

The god of knowledge held off the god of death, but the gap between him and Ilyaan was not bridged.

He must destroy the altar of Death before the two great beings determine a victor, otherwise he will die regardless of who wins and will be unable to complete the mission.

Once the altar of Death is destroyed, Death's descent will be interrupted due to the loss of coordinates.

The main mission this time is to investigate the truth and reduce the death toll. The truth is that Ilya is behind the scenes. Defeating the Grim Reaper should reduce the final death toll.

The final step of the task should be complete.

Ilya had just used these crimson liquids to build an altar, but now she was manipulating them to attack Hoo, and the altar was no longer maintaining its shape.

The altar cannot disappear during the ceremony.

Then there is only one possibility: the altar is her body, and the Eye of Truth that was just constructed was only built to meet the requirements for starting the ritual.

All the paths converge on one: kill Ilya.

At this moment, Ilya seemed to understand something as well. She looked at Heo.

"You are indeed very smart, but you have no way to beat me."

"Even if you still believe in other gods, the ritual arrays of two gods cannot overlap. If you communicate with the god of knowledge, you cannot communicate with other gods."

The crimson tide, like viscous limbs, surged towards He Ao in an instant.

"Without the help of the gods, how can you defeat me? I love the way you struggle with all your might and by any means necessary. The more you struggle now, the more painful your death will be. I will crush your soul to offer as a sacrifice to Lin."

There will be more at night

Communication rituals are different from summoning rituals.

The summoning ritual is a way to determine the location and connect with the descent of the gods. In the design of the ritual, the altar and the person presiding over the ritual become the coordinates for the descent of the gods.

The communication ritual is only for the purpose of allowing the ritual master to communicate with the deity, so the ritual array or altar does not have a positioning effect.

Since Heo summoned the God of Knowledge using a communication ritual, although Ilya didn't know how Heo did it, the coordinates of the God of Knowledge's descent in this situation only applied to Heo alone.

Eliminating He'ao, thus depriving the God of Knowledge of its guiding coordinates for descent, is currently the only way to allow Death to retain enough power to continue its descent.

If the power is insufficient, even if Death ultimately defeats the God of Knowledge, it will not have enough power to maintain its physical form, and this descent will be tantamount to failure.

Since the Grim Reaper hadn't hunted enough souls, he naturally wouldn't reward her.

She sensed He Ao's presence, and her expression quickly turned cold. This young man had completely ruined all her plans. If it weren't for He Ao, she could already be asking Death for a reward.

That was her only chance to advance to Rank A.

Lin is dead, the plan has been ruined, and the chance to advance is almost gone.

"You must die!!!"

Countless illusory souls burst forth from the crimson waves of blood, densely packed together, charging fearlessly toward He'ao.

At that very moment, He Ao felt his heartbeat slow down slightly.

His life was rapidly slipping away, not from injury or weakness, but from a feeling that his life was gradually 'aging'.

He looked up at Ilya, who was floating in the air.

The beautiful woman in the black dress was lifted up by countless crimson waves, and reached out her hand to He Ao, her gray-white eyes reflecting the silent darkness.

She is like the Grim Reaper on earth, easily taking people's lives.

This is what Ilya's security forces look like after they've been liberated; this is her true B-rank ability.

Talent Sequence 207: Death Servant

This is the name of a B-level superhuman's talent sequence, which Christos sent from the Grim Reaper's data and is suspected to be related to the Grim Reaper pathway.

It only has a name, without any description of its abilities or characteristics.

Because all those who witnessed the abilities of the 'Servant of Death' are dead.

He leaned against the wall, which was only halfway up, with more than two hundred meters of air behind him. He gripped his sword and looked at the densely packed, surging undead.

If Ilya is a servant of death, then the power to control the undead comes from either 'Talent Sequence 133: Necromancer' or 'Talent Sequence 135: Soul Reaper'.

These two talent sequences are suspected to be prerequisite sequences for the Death Servant.

However, neither of these talent sequences has the ability to modify a person's choices.

The final mystery has been solved.

He leaned against the wall, feeling Ilya's attraction to him, and smiled.

"Who told you that I can no longer borrow power from the gods?"

He gripped his twin swords tightly and plunged them into his own body.

A dazzling red light instantly filled He Ao's body, engulfing the surroundings.

The entire space was dyed a blazing red.

Endless whispers echoed in He Ao's ears once more, and a powerful, twisted force flowed from the twin swords in his hands, surging into He Ao's body.

thump—

thump—

thump—

It was a series of heartbeats as loud as a great bell.

"You're insane, you lunatic!"

Endless waves of blood surged up again, engulfing He Ao's body. His terrifying aging accelerated rapidly, and in an instant, strands of He Ao's hair turned slightly white.

"Aren't you afraid the God of War will revive inside you? You'll still die then! You're a madman!"

For the first time, shock and fear appeared on Ilya's usually cold and arrogant face.

This surprise even surpassed her seeing the god of knowledge descend. It is normal for believers to summon gods, but to try to gain power by fusing with the evil god of death is pure madness.

“But,” a cold, hoarse voice emerged from the crimson tide, “He can lend me the power to kill you.”

A burst of red light instantly erupted from the waves.

Summoning the God of War requires no ritual, because the dual swords are the ritual itself.

The God of War has created too many monsters through this special communication, and He will not let go of powerful life forms that share the same path.

Moreover, the God of War seemed to really like He Ao. From the first time He Ao entered the dream and was inspired, His residual consciousness began to try to invade He Ao's body. He couldn't possibly pass up this free opportunity.

However, the channel is bidirectional. When He Ao entered the dream, he discovered that this connection was bidirectional, allowing one to go or return.

When the God of War's consciousness began to erode He's body, it also meant that His own power was open to He.

A god, though only a dead god.

His remaining power was enough for Heo to 'lend' a B-level.

However, borrowing power from the God of War cannot be done at the beginning. Without the restraint of the God of Knowledge, Heo, who borrowed power from the God of War, would be killed by the God of Death first.

And before death arrives, there's no need to borrow power; without death, good friends can solve all problems.
