Dark Shadow Shrine

Chapter 5 The Assassin's Rebirth



How long has it been?

Lei Wen didn't know that his consciousness was gradually blurring, and his body had already become numb due to the severe pain.

It’s hard to travel through once, and there are as many things I want to do as there are stars in the sky. For example, in this life, I will personally ignite my own divine fire and achieve my god position. Of course, what I want to do the most is whip and hang that bastard Cyric, the god of murder, 10,000 times.

It's a pity, if I hang here, then everything is empty talk.

Even if he hadn't tried it, Lei Wen knew that there was nothing in this world to resurrect in situ. The god of death will not let go of any soul in his hands.

Tap Tat Tat... From blurred to clear, footsteps came from afar.

Not long after, the sound of glassware being placed on the small table outside the transom window was heard.

Raven knew it was the elixir of life he had dreamed of.

Peering through the transom, the lush greenery full of vitality is so clear even in the hazy vision.

Raven swore he would remember the color for the rest of his life.

Time is running out, Raven gritted his teeth and waited for the servant to leave.

Finally, the servant left. Raven held on to the grille on the transom with all his strength, and stretched out his trembling arms greedily...

The holy water is here!

Raven has drunk the holy water of life countless times in the game, but he has never been so eager like this time.

That sweetness, that pure beauty, that grassy scent kept stimulating Lei Wen's taste buds...

ah! Hit the jackpot! This is Holy Water No. 5!

This thing is still very useful even if it is more than 60 gold levels!

Raven sucked, sucking like a newborn baby sucking at its mother's milk.

Not sure if the other bottles were all No. 5, Raven decided to split it in half. After drinking half a bottle of holy water, Raven immediately handed over the remaining half bottle to the unconscious Karin.

Soon, the first bottle bottomed out.

Raven reached out for a second bottle and did the same. This bottle is also No. 5... After thinking about it, Lei Wen drank a third, fed the remaining third to Karin, and wiped the last holy water on Karin's face, and it became clear after a while Seeing that Karin's eyeballs that were chopped off by that guy were rapidly being reborn.

Not only Karin, but his abdomen was also wriggling violently. The divine power of the Goddess of Life was vigorously driving away the acid that had entered his body. The rotting internal organs were growing back as they were, and the blurred vision became clear again.

At the same time, Raven could clearly feel the stench of rotting vegetables erupting from the wound.

Out of the instinct of a god-level assassin, Lei Wen immediately used the glass bottle containing holy water to hold the wound and catch the acid. As an assassin, poison making is a compulsory course. I haven't thought of how to use these acids for the time being, but they will always come in handy.

While feeling the changes in his body, Raven looked at the bottle out of the corner of his eye. When the divine power of the holy water completely offset the damage of [Corrosion Fang], and even the HP was fully recovered, the acid was also finished.

Ding! There was an auditory hallucination in the ears, and the cute and familiar system notification sound came.

You successfully dispelled the [Corrosion Fang] of [Black Corruption Crazy]!

You have obtained information about your personal specialty [Weak Acid Resistance]!

You found a special scene - the extravagant gift of the Goddess of Wealth, and obtained 300 general experience points.

You got a new life in the dark and got information about the shadow energy tank.

Lei Wen immediately added all the general experience to the civilians, so that Lei Wen became a level 10 civilian, and his life limit reached 27.

Then there is shadow energy.

Shadow energy is a symbol of the true introduction of all thieves professionals. No matter how many skills they have learned before, they are only in the category of ordinary people. Superhuman skills such as [Shadow Jump], which travel through the shadow plane to jump behind the enemy and come out to stab the knife, can only be used with shadow energy.

In the past, Raven had survived until he was a level 12 rogue before he was imprisoned in a dark water prison for committing crimes, and received a prompt to open the shadow energy tank in the dark darkness. In theory, as long as the shadow energy is sufficient, all related skills can be used without restriction.

Mentioning shadow energy cannot bypass Raven's former big boss Cyric, the god of murder and death. According to the progress of the plot in the game, Cyric will take the priesthood [Shadow] from the God of Thieves in another year.

Priesthood is the area under the jurisdiction of the gods.

If it is in the game, the most convenient and practical way to activate shadow energy is to find a place to realize the existence of shadow energy, and then go to the temple of the god of thieves to worship the god of thieves, and then you can get skills related to shadow energy.

Now Raven doesn't want to do that at all. Because the consequence of this is that all the shadow skills Raven gets are simplified skills from the [Shadow] priesthood. This means that once he fights against Cyric who has obtained the priesthood of [Shadow] in the future, then don't even think about using any shadow-related skills.

Think about it, the skills belong to Cyric, and the shadow energy needed to use the skills also belongs to Cyric. Would he be so stupid to use his power to beat him?

Then there is only one option left: abandon the God of Thieves and master the use of shadow energy from the shadow plane alone.

Only in this way can the shadow energy be used to compete with Cyric to the greatest extent.

Of course, it would be even better if Cyric could not get the priesthood of [Shadow] in this world.

If possible, Raven didn't want to target Cyric like this. Unfortunately, as a player, there is nothing more disgusting than having a garbage background boss.

Cyric is a lunatic who bites anyone he sees, and claims to be the only supreme god. Although he is also very strong, he is far from worthy of the word 'supreme'. He is hostile to almost all gods and has never had allies. Even if he has teammates for a short time, he still takes it as his highest mission to cheat teammates.

The most unacceptable thing is his madness and paranoia: he sometimes even sent down the exact opposite oracle to his priests, asking them to murder each other.

Lei Wen acted as his best thug and was promoted all the way to the strong man in the sanctuary. Even if he handed over all the divinity and godhead he had found, he still fell because of the betrayal of this lunatic boss.

You know, both divinity and godhead are super good things.

To some extent, divinity is the unique characteristic of gods. For gods, divinity is related to the mysterious energy of a god's personality, beliefs, rules of conduct, and alignment bias. Mortals can gain a series of extraordinary abilities such as increased lifespan and increased resistance by absorbing divinity.

Godhead can increase the total amount of divine power.

Even handing over all of his divinity and godhood could not be exchanged for a guarantee of safety, and he was still ruthlessly betrayed.

How could this breath be swallowed?

Cyric, the dog day. Forget it, the matter of the gods is too far away from me for the time being, let's think about how to deal with the black eclipse... Raven just finished cursing in his heart, when the system suddenly ding again.

The main task is released [Being the boss or hugging the thigh, this is a problem!]: Life is to make choices constantly, and every choice will in turn affect your life. Sao Nian, you have been bullied to the top, your The opponent is a huge organization that can crush you to death with one finger, what are you going to do now? Depending on your choices and achievements, there will be different rewards!

For a moment, Lei Wen felt that he was being molested by the system.

Speaking of which, this task is super vague, and I don't even know what the reward is.

Of course, it can be deduced by simple deduction that the fate of being a little sufferer who swallowed his anger and pretended to forget about it must be the most tragic end.

Lei Wen remembered that the Black Eclipse Church in the game was at least a medium-sized church with hundreds of people. It was definitely a giant-level existence in the novice area, and it was definitely not a match for a small level 1 assassin.

It's very simple, as long as there are clues left after killing a black eclipse believer, the hatred will be permanent immediately, and the whole church will hunt you down in the novice area. What's even more disgusting is that there is a necessary and helpless setting in the game: NPCs will be refreshed every 2 hours!

That is to say, unless you are a super expert and slaughter all the believers and priests at once, you will always be troubled by the Black Eclipse Church.

Now that I have time-traveled by myself, then... there will be no such thing as refreshing, right? Isn't it a trick?

What is a god-level assassin? God-level assassins never kill people, they kill loneliness!

Countless times beyond the limit of the challenge level to assassinate the famous red monster, and to challenge the boss by himself countless times, for what?

Isn't it just to prove that I can do what others can't!

Unknowingly, Lei Wen began to figure out how to level up and wipe out the entire Black Eclipse Church. In his conception, it is no problem to clean up ordinary believers, but the problem lies in the guardian knights of the Black Eclipse Church. In my impression, there is a loyal knight who seems to be very powerful...

Lei Wen, who was in a state of thinking, was interrupted by an accident.

There were footsteps in the distance, and the servant who had just left was about to come back.

After drinking the second bottle of holy water, he and Karin's mortal wounds were healed, but the wounds had not fully healed. The third bottle in my hand is No. 7, and it may be too late to reach out to get the others.

Apparently there wasn't enough holy water left for two people.

Gritting his teeth, Raven applied all the holy water to Karin's face. The price for doing this was that a bowl-sized scar remained on his belly, and on Karin's beautiful face, the shallow scar from the left eyebrow to the left cheek completely disappeared without a trace.

Karin, who was intoxicated by the healing of the wound, also woke up because all the pain disappeared. Instinctively, she touched her own wound, and then touched Lei Wen's wound when Lei Wen had no time to stop it.

Tears rolled down her face silently as she realized what had happened.

Karin...it's okay, didn't you say that scars are the badge of a man? These are trivial things. Raven comforted Karin in dry language. But the more he talked, the more Karin cried.

Karin gently took Lei Wen's hand, but a bright smile appeared on her face that should be full of tears: Brother, you are too bad, how can I marry someone else like this!

Why can't you marry? Isn't your face all healed?

With a poof, Karin smiled even more prettily. With the help of dark vision, Lei Wen could clearly feel this delicate beauty. She's only 13 years old, she looks like a typical beauty, what will happen when she grows up?

Brother, you are a piece of wood!

Just as Raven was about to say something, the footsteps got closer.

Karin looked at the empty bottle in Raven's hand, and suddenly realized that they had stolen all the holy water, and someone would definitely find out. She widened her blue eyes uneasily: What should I do?

Karin could imagine that once they were discovered, the two of them would face the thunder and wrath of the Fortune Church.

To make matters worse, a cat that came from nowhere seemed to have spotted Raven and the others and was walking towards the transom.

About to be discovered? !
