I never expected it to actually be like that.
The Ghost Queen is unmatched by any non-C-level player. The design of the third mission is completely unreasonable, and the tens of thousands of villagers in Red Village are there to make up for this unreasonableness.
The Demon Queen can absorb power and become stronger by devouring lesser mountain spirits, so... what would happen if a lesser mountain spirit devoured another lesser mountain spirit?
Fan Xiao finally saw the answer—the lesser mountain spirits enjoyed the same devouring privileges as the Ghost Queen.
However, since the Ghost Goddess is ultimately the source of authority, the villagers of Red Village will definitely not be able to deal with her using this method.
They need external help—that is, from the players.
The player has acquired the identity of a Lesser Mountain Spirit, but has not yet had time to fully transform.
In other words, players can also absorb the power of the lesser mountain spirits, and for a short period of time, they will not be suppressed by the Ghost Queen with the highest authority.
This brief anomaly is the key to defeating the Demon Queen!
To complete this plan, two things are essential.
The player must possess powerful abilities;
All villagers in Hongcun must be of one mind, pursue a common goal, and be willing to sacrifice themselves for this goal.
The higher the level of faith, the faster the efficiency of absorbing power. This was information revealed by the village chief's great-grandson. The village chief of Red Village gathered the power of all the villagers in a very short time, which shows how cooperative those villagers were.
Fan Xiao admired their noble will.
The next instant, a terrifying roar emanated from the thick fog and spread across the entire battlefield.
The voice seemed to carry an overwhelming rage, so suppressed that it sent chills down one's spine.
The Ghost Queen realized something was wrong and changed her target, turning her hostility towards the village chief of Red Village.
This traitor...!!
The pitch-black torrent suddenly changed direction and crashed into the Red Village Chief, who had transformed into a gigantic monster.
*Pfft*—A flash of crimson light.
Fan Xiao teleported to the front of the village chief, and the little angels beside him tore a hole in the incoming torrent of darkness.
Fan Xiao turned around and looked at the monster in front of him. Its twisted body carried the long-cherished wish of the entire Red Village.
"Touch me and you can absorb my power."
One of the monster's hideous mouths opened and said to Fan Xiao, "Young man, thank you."
"Any last wishes?" Fan Xiao asked calmly.
"His last wish..."
After a moment of silence, the monster said, "Help me send all the people still alive in White Village out, settle them properly, and tell them never to come back."
"Okay." Fan Xiao nodded. "Take care."
He reached out his right hand and touched the monster.
The next second, the monster... no, the village chief of Red Village disappeared.
Before disappearing, the village chief did not respond to anything, as if he had let go of everything and left gracefully.
A tremendous power surged into Fan Xiao's body and was effortlessly controlled by him.
The borrowed power caused his mental strength to surge dramatically, and a familiar sense of exhilaration welled up within him.
Chapter 553 The End
powerful.
Incredibly powerful.
The long-lost feeling reminded Fan Xiao of his experience in the "Mone Tower" instance, and he couldn't help but feel somewhat intoxicated.
Even a little touching.
A storm is raging within him.
The storm, like the breath of a planet blowing from the sea to form land and rivers, exuded overwhelming power, amplifying his presence and making him as dazzling as the sun.
In that instant, a spiritual force, transformed into tangible form, seeped out from his soul.
The surrounding air was shrouded in terrifying pressure and began to hiss and crackle.
The ground cracked and sank, and the surrounding gravity seemed to have increased many times over.
With each breath, Fan Xiao realized that his mere presence here was influencing the surrounding environment.
He felt that his consciousness was incredibly clear and autonomous.
Unaffected by any external forces.
He didn't use any defensive abilities; he simply relied on his mental resistance to block the Ghost Queen's overwhelming mental attacks.
At the same time, the little angels also became more active.
"Wow, Fan Xiao, it's hard now."
"Great, great!"
"I feel completely filled."
"I'm so full."
"..."
The little angel is, after all, the embodiment of the seven deadly sins, and lust is one of them. It's normal for him to occasionally make some suggestive remarks... Fan Xiao resisted the urge to educate him and snapped out of his reverie, recovering from his state of being intoxicated by the surge in power.
He looked up at the cloud of mist ahead and grinned.
What a twist!
Currently, both the original form and the projection of the Demon Queen exist simultaneously.
One approached the player, unleashing its most powerful mental and shadow torrent attacks; the other drifted around the edge of the sea of blood, providing the main body with a retreat route.
The Ghost Queen had realized that being approached by Fan Xiao was a very dangerous thing.
Because the opponent is very likely to eliminate her within seconds, their attack power is so strong it's unfair, like they're using cheat codes.
Fortunately, this guy's defense is very weak. Without the support of the surging blood-red lake below, he can't defend against her mental interference at all.
So she resorted to this cheating tactic.
That is, the main body approaches and releases the highest intensity attack, and immediately swaps positions with the projection to avoid danger.
Even if the projection is destroyed, she can recreate it at any time with her power, so it doesn't affect anything at all.
She firmly believed that the more powerful an ability is, the more energy it consumes to use.
As long as we keep using this cheating tactic to wear her down, that annoying bitch will eventually be worn down to death!
To some extent, the Ghost Queen's idea was correct.
Just half a minute ago, Fan Xiao really was planning to run away.
Of course, he holds grudges, and if he suffers a loss, he certainly won't let it go.
He planned to use other methods to enter the 011 partition, then use the wooden stick to find his way back here. He would prepare a large enough sea of blood while the instance was closed, time his attacks during the three-hour cooldown of the Little Angel, and use the A-grade item "Book of Curses" to launch multiple rounds of sneak attacks.
The Ghost Queen cannot leave the instance; she is essentially a stationary target.
He was confident that he could kill the Ghost Queen before the dungeon reopened by using a rogue strategy of "hit and run, then come back to fight when he's recovered".
Now, he doesn't need to be a scoundrel anymore.
"Awaken, my legion."
Perhaps it was the surge of energy that brought about his high spirits, for Fan Xiao spread his arms wide, displaying a pose that could only be described as childish.
As if it were a signal, after he finished his action, the crimson color began to stain the ground from his center and spread rapidly.
A frenzied expansion.
The shadowy realm that tore apart the sea of blood was covered in the most violent and forceful manner.
The sea of blood is no longer a description, no longer a metaphor.
Its scale continued to expand until it covered almost half of the instance before finally stopping.
It truly became a sea of blood.
Countless monsters began to roam freely in the sea of blood.
Giant tentacles covered in suckers extended from the sea surface, and flying eyeballs emerged. A mountain-like shadow stood up, grabbed the flying mountain demon in the air, and swallowed it whole.
There are also whales pieced together from tumors, giant centipedes covered in human arms... Just looking at the sea of blood can induce a strong, nauseating feeling of unease.
This is an ocean filled with distortions.
"wake up."
Fan Xiao murmured casually.
In the next instant, countless distorted pollutants filled every inch of air.
The Ghost Queen's subconscious body was torn apart instantly, shattering into spiritual light points that dissipated.
She could no longer appear, because this place no longer had the conditions for her to survive.
Only the Ghost Queen herself, who was hiding in another space, remained unaffected.
Soon, the tangible distortion and pollution shattered the Ghost Queen's mental attack domain.
Tanya, Youguo, Ouen, and the other four, who were in a daze, woke up immediately.
"This is……"
Tanya was startled. She looked down at her feet, then looked up at her surroundings. Her stunned expression gradually turned into astonishment.
She quickly grasped the situation and suppressed the urge to leave through customs.
"Don't leave yet! It seems we're on the side with the advantage again."
Tanya spoke up to remind Su and Jane.
Nearby, You Guo and Ou En looked around and quickly spotted Fan Xiao floating in the air.
The tide of battle seemed to have turned—and they realized it.
"This blood... what a terrifying scale!" You Guo exclaimed in astonishment, "Brother Fan, how did you suddenly become so strong?"
"Look there! The Ghost Queen is retreating!" Xiao Tian, wearing glasses, pointed ahead and said excitedly, "This thing can actually be afraid? That's so unexpected!"
"They really got away...?"
Su looked over and saw the thick fog representing the Ghost Queen's true form rapidly moving away from the area and becoming thinner and thinner, as if it were gradually merging into the fog that enveloped the entire instance.
This is... not forgetting to conceal oneself while escaping?
The Demon Queen was actually scared?
For a moment, everyone turned their gaze to Fan Xiao in the air, their faces showing disbelief.
Have Fan Xiao's and the dungeon boss's positions been reversed?
Did they mix up the roles of the two characters?
"Why did the battle situation suddenly change?" Tanya frowned. "What exactly happened just now?"
“Mr. Fan probably got serious when he saw we were in danger,” Owen speculated. “He probably didn’t fight with all his might before because he was worried about hurting our pride.”
"..."
Wow... Tanya was speechless in the face of such a simp.
A loud rumble suddenly rang out, attracting the attention of all the players.
The sound was louder than thunder, giving people the illusion that the sky was collapsing, the earth was sinking, and the world was about to be destroyed.
Everyone instinctively looked southwest and discovered that the fog there had completely disappeared.
It was as if it had been wiped out by some force in an instant.
In the clearing vision, numerous dense, dark cracks appeared—the space there had been torn apart!
The loud noise just now was the mournful cry of a space before it collapsed.
