[Note: 'Overload' consumes 1000 points of magic power, slowing the flow of time to one-fifth for 10 seconds, and preventing the use of 'Calculation Power Boost' for one minute after the effect ends.]

However, Jiang Ran's answer after thinking about it was hopeless. He was too far away from the old man. Even if he used the three skills of "Shadow Escape Step", "Double Shadow Escape Step" and "Shadow Behind·Teleportation" together, it was not enough to cross this long distance.

After all, with the flow of time slowed down five times, Jiang Ran's own speed would also be slowed down.

(Damn, is there no other way?!)

Jiang Ran was unwilling to let the Three-Eyed Raven King succeed, but without the ability to fly, he was helpless at this time!

(No, wait, it’s not that there is no solution…!)

An extremely risky idea flashed through Jiang Ran's mind. He knew that this trick might not succeed, but if he didn't try, the old man would definitely die.

Therefore, he had only one choice to make!

"hold onto!"

"Grandpa!"

"I'm here to save you!"

Jiang Ran shouted loudly, then jumped off the cliff without hesitation.

9.47 - Absolute Body and Death

After arriving in the Prison Star World, Jiang Ran had done many things that risked his life, but this was the first time he risked his life for an old man.

In the trial space, on the barren land, on the side of a steep cliff, Jiang Ran, the old man, and several large rocks were falling rapidly.

The strong wind whistled past their ears, and the mountains beside them were moving away from them at an alarming speed.

If they fell to the ground at this speed and with such a height difference, they would undoubtedly be smashed to pieces.

Fortunately, the mountain where Jiang Ran and the others fell was thousands of meters above the ground, which gave them more than ten seconds to struggle.

·

But it only lasted more than ten seconds.

·

“Ahhh… Ahhhh…”

The old man who was falling could do nothing but scream hysterically. He couldn't even say "Help!"

However, Jiang Ran noticed that even though he was about to die, the old man did not forget to hold the two sunflowers in his arms and protect them carefully. This old man was quite extreme both in being disgusting and in caring for his grandson.

On the other hand, Jiang Ran also discovered that the Three-Eyed Raven King also swooped down and was now following above them. It was obvious that he came to take advantage of their misfortune and confirm their death.

·

(There are still 6 seconds left for the hashrate boost and overload, and there are about 7 or 8 seconds left until landing. However, once the hashrate boost and overload effect ends, the remaining time will be meaningless.)

Jiang Ran began to adjust his body posture while thinking. Under the influence of his skills, both himself and everything around him seemed so slow that even turning his head took a long time.

Fortunately, Jiang Ran's super-dimensional divine eye has the ability of "all-round vision", which means that he can grasp all situations within a 360-degree range of himself in real time without even moving his eyes.

Then, with the help of the increased computing power, Jiang Ran, whose brain computing ability has been greatly improved, can fully accept this huge amount of information and quickly complete the analysis, and then formulate corresponding strategic plans.

Seeing that the Three-Eyed Raven King had begun to flap his wings and prepare to attack, Jiang Ran immediately moved his position by stepping on the stones beside him, blocking his body above the old man.

(Shadow Behind)

At the same time, he summoned a black shadow clone on the stone below, and asked the black shadow clone to go over and protect the old man, ensuring that he and the two sunflowers would not be affected by the subsequent battle.

(Six seconds until landing, Three-Eyed Raven King. This is only enough time for you to perform two moves.)

In a flash, the Three-Eyed Raven King once again used "Swift Wind Slash: Splitting Slash" and slashed at Jiang Ran and the others with six wind blades.

Jiang Ran didn't know whether the Three-Eyed Raven King couldn't wait for Jiang Ran and the others to fall to the ground and die, or was just enjoying the perverted pleasure of taking advantage of others' misfortune, but this pursuit during the fall was obviously extremely deadly.

In order to ensure that he could always move during the fall, Jiang Ran chose to block the beast horn giant sword in front of him at this time, and withstood the impact of "Godspeed Wind Slash", but he also lost some vitality due to the corresponding injuries.

(Three seconds, you only have enough time to use one more move, Three-Eyed Raven King.)

Jiang Ran was fully prepared. No matter which of the five skills the Three-Eyed Raven King had already used, Jiang Ran had a countermeasure to deal with it.

However, at this moment, the Three-Eyed Raven King opened his mouth and started to sing a "song" with a "ga ga ga" sound.

Was this simply a pre-emptive celebration? No, it clearly wasn't, because Jiang Ran clearly saw that the Three-Eyed Raven King's magic power had suddenly dropped by 5000 points. In other words, the "song" it was singing was actually some kind of skill!

(Why did he choose this moment to use his trump card?!)

Jiang Ran admired the Three-Eyed Raven King's timing. As he was about to fall to his death, it was indeed difficult for him to dodge any skills, let alone dodge the "special skill that uses sound to spread."

However, as long as it is not a skill that will cause immediate death, everything is still within Jiang Ran's calculations!

"Three-Eyed Raven King! It's too early for you to celebrate now!"

Jiang Ran suddenly turned around to face the earth, then waved his hands and used a skill that could change the situation in an instant!

(Negative the impact of our landing! Storm Strike: Tornado!)

As Jiang Ran waved his hands, the key skills he had kept for a long time played a life-saving role at this moment!

The high-speed swirling tornado immediately blew him, the old man, and the surrounding large rocks up again, preventing them from falling to the ground to their death due to the impact of the fall!

Next, Jiang Ran and the old man will be blown down to the nearby hillside and will survive with only minor injuries.

The Three-Eyed Raven King, who was swooping down from above Jiang Ran and the others, was also affected by this and temporarily could not attack Jiang Ran and the others anymore. He could only watch in amazement at this shocking reversal!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jiang Ran immediately threw a bright magic stone infused with magic power towards the Three-Eyed Raven King not far away, and then successfully stole the skill that the other party was still using: "Death Song".

·

Skill Name: Death Song

Mana consumption: 5000 points are consumed immediately when activated, and 100 points are consumed per second thereafter;

Cooling time: 24 hours;

Skill effect:

1. When the skill is activated, it applies the abnormal status "Dying" to all nearby creatures that hear the "Death Song". If the creature's rank is higher than the skill user by three ranks or more, the abnormal status will not be applied.

2. After the Death Song is activated, it can be continued. Every second it is chanted, the death probability of nearby creatures that hear the chant and have the abnormal status "Dying One" is increased by 3%. For each level lower the creature's level than the skill user, the increase in death probability increases by an additional 3% (for example, 6%, 9%, 12%, etc.);

3. During the chanting of the Death Song, the skill user can move freely, but cannot use any skills, including equipment skills;

Abnormal status "Dying Man":

1. After 60 seconds, the creature that obtains this abnormal state will have a 1% chance of dying immediately. If the death effect is not triggered, the abnormal state will be automatically cleared.

2. When the death probability is increased to 100% or above, the attached organisms will be killed immediately without waiting for the 60-second countdown to end;

3. If the skill user dies before the 60-second countdown ends, the abnormal state will be automatically cleared;

·

After quickly reading through the skill effects and abnormal status descriptions, Jiang Ran now knew what the abnormal status "Dying Man" that appeared on him and the old man was.

I have to say, as a sixth-level skill, this "Death Song" is indeed powerful. If used properly, it is no problem to kill an enemy two levels higher than you in seconds.

However, continuing to chant without being able to use other skills comes with risks, especially when facing an enemy stronger than yourself.

If the enemy chooses to escape from the effective range of the chant, it will be quite difficult to chase him while chanting.

If the skill fails in the end, the consumption of 5,000 or even tens of thousands of magic points will be a magic cost that cannot be ignored.

Five seconds had passed since the Three-Eyed Raven King began "singing." According to the calculation rules, Jiang Ran's current probability of death was 37% (1+9+9+9+9), while the old man's probability of death was...

(Huh? 13%?)

(1+3+3+3+3=13?)

Jiang Ran was stunned for a moment, and thought he had seen it wrong.

Although he couldn't see the old man's basic information or read his mind, he could see his abnormal condition, and the value displayed on it was 13%!

This means that the old man’s combat professional level is as high as level six?

9.48 - Sunrise (Part )

(No, level six is ​​only the lowest possibility. If things go well, this guy could even be level eight!)

Based on the skill rules of "Death Song", Jiang Ran directly deduced the old man's combat professional class range. Now he finally had solid evidence that the old man's various sprained and twisted ankles along the way were all lies!

He came here on purpose to make things difficult for Jiang Ran!

"Grandpa, why are you hiding your strength?!"

When he was about to fall down the hillside, Jiang Ran loudly questioned the old man.

The old man now realized that Jiang Ran had understood the truth, so he stopped pretending to be pitiful and completed the landing action as light as a swallow without even taking any unnecessary steps.

"If I don't pretend to be weak, how can I test your integrity?"

The old voice was still the same as the old man's just now, but the tone of voice and the expression in his gestures were completely different.

Jiang Ran stared blankly at the old man, carefully pondering the word "faithfulness" in his words, wondering if the god corresponding to this trial was not "Kierli, the God of Mercy", but "Fias, the God of Faithfulness"?

(So ​​that's how it is. No wonder I always felt something was wrong.)

Jiang Ran thought about it briefly and realized that as long as he substituted "God of Faithfulness·Fias" into the trial, everything that had happened so far would make sense.

At the beginning, no matter whether Jiang Ran helped the old man willingly or out of helplessness, as long as he agreed to help, he made a "promise".

As the saying goes, a gentleman's word is as good as gold. Jiang Ran can only demonstrate his "faithfulness" by overcoming numerous difficulties and fulfilling his promise to the old man.

As a bonus, Jiang Ran's act of risking his life by jumping off the mountaintop to save the old man was also considered a display of "faithfulness".

Little did people know that the reason Jiang Ran did that was purely because he was worried that he would not be able to complete the task in the future without the task NPC.

Inside the trial space, the battle continues.

After the two humans landed, the Three-Eyed Raven King regained his composure and continued chanting.

It kept calling "Ga Ga" and circled around the two humans. If it continued to chant for another seven seconds, the human boy would die suddenly because the probability of death would reach 100%.

In the short time left, if the human boy wanted to escape, the Three-Eyed Raven King would not be inferior to the maggots "crawling" on the ground in terms of speed;

And if the human boy wanted to fight head-on, it would be impossible for him to kill the Three-Eyed Raven King within seven seconds;

The scales of victory had completely tipped in favor of the Three-Eyed Raven King the moment he sang his death elegy!

·

On the other side of the battlefield, Jiang Ran's side was indeed in a desperate situation.

How could he kill the Three-Eyed Raven King in less than seven seconds?

This absolute disadvantage in ground-to-air defense alone is an insurmountable chasm for Jiang Ran!

But at this moment, the old man standing next to Jiang Ran smiled and stuffed the two sunflowers in his arms into Jiang Ran's hands.

"I have just confirmed your integrity. Those who keep their promises will be followed by the glory of the rising sun."

As soon as the old man finished speaking, the two sunflowers turned into balls of light and merged into Jiang Ran's body. Then, two sun wings shining with golden light grew out from Jiang Ran's back, giving him the ability to fly!

"Go, young man. The end of the trial requires you to show your strength and end it..."

Jiang Ran flapped his Sun Wings and flew up before the old man could finish his words. He only had seven extremely precious seconds left. How could he have time to listen to the old man finish his words?

·

The moment the Sun Wings grew out of his back, Jiang Ran had already figured out the situation using his identification ability.
