Chapter 640: Lord-level Side Quest!(2-in-1)
"Part of what I can do is done. Now it's up to her...... Look at how strong her hatred and unwillingness are,"
"Transforming from a humanoid to an undead is a very painful process. The vast majority of undead creatures do not have memories before they were born, and that is because the pain of the reincarnated undead species is too intense, and the memories are torn apart, and the stronger the template, the more painful the reincarnation process becomes. β
"The very few undead creatures that are able to retain their memories during such a painful process will generally become powerful leader-level powerhouses. β
"The death knight transformed by Goliath is also a boss. Can her memory be preserved?" Bai Xiaowen asked. It's about how he engages with Goliath nextβor how he flickers.
"Like other Death Knights, some of them will be forgotten, but those very vivid and unforgettable memories will still be kept. Of course, the premise is that she can survive, and if she doesn't have a strong enough obsession, the final outcome can only be reincarnation failure. Delifa explained.
As she spoke, the black mist wrapped around Golia's body squirmed more violently, and suddenly began to contract.
The whirring yin wind was howling, and Bai Xiaowen could feel that the cold energy was surging from all directions of the Great Mausoleum.
With this feeling, Goliath seemed to have turned into a black hole, greedily devouring the surrounding Yin energy!
There was a hint of joy on Delifa's face, and she said, "It seems that she has survived, and now she can still take the initiative to absorb the yin qi in the Great Mausoleum...... It's so powerful, she must be very powerful after she is successfully reincarnated. β
As the yin qi entered the body, the black mist on the surface of Golia's body was also rapidly shrinking, pouring into Golia's body.
Eventually, the black mist coiled around her body, along with the gathered Yin energy, sucked into Golia's body like a long whale sucking water.
He was covered with white hair, like snow in the north.
The armor that was originally shining on the surface of Golia's body seemed to have been infected by the cold energy, turning from blue to dark blue.
The most noteworthy thing is Golia's two-handed broadsword, as if an invisible palm brushed by, the big sword was covered with blue ice flowers, and the lion head on the original sword was swallowed, and it quickly twisted and turned into a skull.
"This, this, this...... Frost's sorrow?"
Bai Xiaowen was a little drumming in his heart, he shouldn't have come up with an Aaronic plane version of the Lich King, right?
Golia's closed eyes slowly opened.
The original blue eyes became more crystal clear, shimmering with a magnificent ice blue light. And in the corners of his eyes, there are still wisps of cold air flowing.
Golia's skin was bloodless, revealing a sickly white, but her figure was ...... It is still convex and backward, with slender thighs, looming under the dark blue armor, making people unable to take their eyes off.
Let's talk about it here, the death knight is a corpse demon clan, and the horror knight belongs to the bone clan, although both are cavalry, their appearance is completely different. Compared to the horror knight's skeleton, the death knight's appearance is closer to that of a human.
Bai Xiaowen complained for the butcher and Dr. Zombie, it's unfair!
Everyone is a corpse demon clan, why is my big butcher so ugly, Dr. Zombie is so spicy and obscene, but Golia's appearance has not fallen?
Goliath's lips opened and closed, and clear words came out of her mouth:
"I am the Lord of the North...... I am the Lord of Aaron!"
"I control death, I rule the dead!"
"I will tear apart the world of the living and build the kingdom of the dead on the earth!"
The three villain boss-style speeches made the newly named White Phoenix team stunned.
Bai Xiaowen: "(βΛβ)"
Li Shuyi: "Ξ£(γ£Β°ΠΒ°;) γ£β
Qiao Rui: "(Β°γΌΒ°γ)"
Delifa was not surprised, explaining, "There is no need to be surprised that the master is not surprised, the intelligent undead creatures themselves are transformed by hatred, and after the successful rebirth, they will naturally have a strong hatred for the living. In fact, it is not only intelligent undead creatures, but also those weak and unintelligent skeletons, when they encounter living beings, they will also attack out of instinctive disgust. β
"I'm just surprised that Golia's temperament has changed drastically," Bai Xiaowen said.
"It is very common for human beings to change their temperament after a great change, not to mention that she died once, and her personality before her death has basically disappeared. "Deli Fa said.
"She's not going to attack us, is she?" Ms. Li whispered.
"No, it won't. β
These two words were not spoken by Delifa, but from the mouth of Goliath above the altar. Her voice, like the previous Zhonger-style declaration, had an icy aura that made people want to shiver.
Bai Xiaowen silently released an insight into Golia.
[Goliath (Boss Level 8)/Growth Status]
[Race: Undead Race/Necro Race]
[Class: Black Knight]
[Attributes: Strength 75, Agility 36, Constitution 65, Spirit 33]
γSpecial Skill: ???γ
[Skill 1: Cursed Blade: Passive, Goliath's normal attack has a curse effect, dealing additional shadow damage and randomly applying a negative status to the enemy.] Casting the Cursed Blade will resurrect the lifeforms killed by Goliath into undead creatures and fight for her, and the transformed undead creatures will persist until they die in battle. γ
[Skill 2: Empty.] γ
[Skill 3: Null.] γ
[Skill 4: Null.] γ
[Skill 5: Domination of Death LV3: Increases HP by an additional 500 points and gains 50% toughness.] γ
"This attribute!" Bai Xiaowen was stunned, "The strength and physique are both high, and the total attribute is completely off the charts." β
What really caught Bai Xiaowen's attention was the "growth state" after Golia's name board.
[Growth Status: The Black Knight Goliath has a huge potential hidden in her body, and with the passage of time and the process of training, she will grow rapidly and become more powerful. γ
"How come there are three empty skill slots?" asked Li Shuyi in the team channel.
After reading the information shared by Bai Xiaowen, Qiao Rui thought for a while and replied in the team channel: "Goliath may be in the transition period between rare leaders and lords. Didn't the banshee just say that the reincarnation process of undead creatures is very painful, and many memories will be torn, and the skills of Goliath in the past may have been forgotten. The only combat skill Curse Sword Blade detected by Xiaowen is also a passive ability based on the Black Knight's special physique......"
Bai Xiaowen nodded: "In other words, Goliath also needs to learn in battle and gradually grow to the lord level." β
"We actually created a lord!" Li Shuyi had an incredible expression on her face, "It's good that she said that she won't attack us." β
In the midst of the private discussion between the three of them, Goliath met the gaze of the White Phoenix Team and said calmly, "I remember you, Dio Skelboom. β
Li Shuyi squeezed her eyes at Bai Xiaowen, she remembered the words of the banshee Delifa, intelligent undead creatures will only retain "very vivid and unforgettable" memories.
Bai Xiaowen didn't care about Li Shuyi's small movements, he began to flicker mode.
"Hello, Goliath. β
"I didn't feel good, my cold heart beating in my chest, and only death energy flowed between the clotted veins. But I'll try to get used to it, it's a new beginning. Goliath said lightly, "You and your banshee helped me complete my reincarnation and gave me the opportunity to take revenge on the living, and I will remember your love." β
"It's good that you won't chase me for soul stones. Bai Xiaowen asked tentatively.
In case after Golia became a black knight, she asked for the black soul stone balabala for the reason of increasing her strength...... It is inevitable that the two sides will fight.
Bai Xiaowen actually didn't panic, although Golia was strong now, her strength was still weak when she was reincarnated. With the strength of the trio of the White Phoenix Squad, the real lords can compete, not to mention Golia, a black knight between a rare leader and a lord.
Golia's ice-blue eyes didn't fluctuate at all: "The Soul Stone means nothing to me, and I would rather you fall and join my realm of the dead, commanding the army of the dead for me." β
"This ...... An army of the dead?" Bai Xiaowen subconsciously looked around.
"I control death, all living beings are my reserve army, and it is easy to form an army of the dead,"
Golia's tone was calm, and she said this extremely coercive words as calmly as if she were stating the facts, "Say, would you like to join me?"
Bai Xiaowen just wanted to complain, but suddenly received a prompt from the rules of the spirit world:
"You've received acceptance from the Black Knight Golia, do you agree to join a new faction: the Dead Realm?"
"Warning: The Dead Realm is a special force that is hostile to all life, and joining the Dead Realm will reduce your reputation in the other factions of the Aaronic Plane to hostility. β
The three members of the White Phoenix squad received a hint at the same time. But whether to join or not is up to the captain Bai Xiaowen.
"I don't seem to have a choice. Bai Xiaowen shrugged.
I don't know how many camps there are in other regions of the Aaron Continent, but the two camps in the north, the Resistance Army, the Imperial Army, and Bai Xiaowen can't join. In order not to waste the next eight days of idleness, joining the Dead Realm is a good choice.
Moreover, the rules of the spirit world are generally that the greater the risk, the higher the reward, just like gambling. Joining the realm of death is so dangerous, but you can imagine that the benefits must be not low.
Bai Xiaowen asked for the opinions of the two teammates.
Li Shuyi has always followed Bai Xiaowen's decision. Qiao Rui also seemed to have a lot of trust in Bai Xiaowen and didn't have any objections.
"I joined. Bai Xiaowen said.
There was no expression on Golia's pale face, but there was a hint of joy in her tone: "You made a wise choice, Dio Skelboom. β
Spiritual Rule Tips:
"You've joined a new faction: the Dead Realm. β
"You triggered the Hero side quest: Rise of the Lords of Death, do you accept it?"
"The Dead Realm faction's reputation is on, and the current reputation level: Honor. β
"You are in a hidden hostile relationship with the forces of the other factions on the continent of Aaron, and you will not be able to join the other factions, and when your identity in the Dead Realm faction is revealed, all factions that know your true identity will be in a state of clear hostility with you. β
"The Black Knight Golia's opinion of you has increased, and the current opinion level is friend. β
"The Black Knight Golia's devotion to you has increased, and the current level of devotion is appreciation. β
Getting this hint, Bai Xiaowen was a little messy in the wind, Golia has become an undead, and there is still a degree of affection......? Is there no love for ghosts?
But Goliath seems to be prettier and sexier now...... Shouldn't we continue to cultivate it?
Goliath didn't know Bai Xiaowen's dirty thoughts, otherwise she would probably reward him with a sword.
In fact, Golia's favorability and devotion are mainly because Bai Xiaowen helped her reincarnate, in a sense, Bai Xiaowen gave Goliaa a second "life". In other words, such a major event as giving "life" can only be appreciated, and the difficulty of wanting to improve the level of devotion can be imagined.
After all, there is a boundary between life and death between living beings and undead creatures, which is a moat.
Bai Xiaowen's thoughts flew away for 0.1 seconds and then took it back. He focused on the Hero Mission.
γLord-level side quest: Rise of the Death Lordsγ
[Objective: Assist the Black Knight Goliath to grow to a lord level or above (including lord level).] γ
γDifficulty: C-γ
[Mission Duration: None (equivalent to the remaining time you spend in the Aaronic Plane World)]
[Reward: Unknown.] γ
To be precise, Bai Xiaowen didn't take the initiative to dig up, but was smashed on the head by a B-level lord side quest.
Of course, yes!
Bai Xiaowen didn't expect that it was just out of sympathy, he gave up an S-level treasure Frozen Heart and hundreds of soul essences to "create" a black knight Golia, but he didn't expect that there would be such a follow-up. Obviously, this is a lord side quest with a relatively long time span, and there are many minor tasks in the process, which is definitely worth doing.
Bai Xiaowen clarified his speculation with his two teammates, and all members of the White Phoenix team took over the task. Goliath nodded in satisfaction.
"Now, I can feel some chaotic breath of life, very close to us...... Harvest them," Goliath said slowly, "and make them the first soldiers of the army of the dead!"
Spiritual Rule Tips:
"[Elite Side Quest: First Sacrifice] opens. β
[Objective: Kill all lifeforms in the lower layers of the Great Mausoleum.] γβ
"[Difficulty: B-]"
"[Mission Duration: 4 hours]"
"[Reward: Unknown]"
Qiao Rui said with a smile: "It's really the same as the junior guessed, it's a B-level elite mission, it's very good." β
"The life form of the lower layer of the Great Mausoleum...... It was supposed to be the royal halberd-bearer who came with the fake prince Richard, and a few palace guards under the command of Golantis. While they're all elite templates and have unique skills that increase their health with more people, they still can't be our opponents. β
Bai Xiaowen analyzed, "The difficulty of the mission is that 'all' lifeforms must be killed, and not one can be let go. β
"No problem. Qiao Rui and Li Shuyi nodded at the same time.
