Chapter 101 Comprehending

This wasn't that Forest Cat didn't want to charge; it was just that her base stats weren't that high. Her skills, equipment, and items were all control-oriented, lacking large-scale destructive abilities.

"Understood."

Li Ang didn't waste words. He nodded to Stonemason and said to Wu Nian and Dong Fengpo, "Cover us."

"Mm,"

Wu Nian, already pale, trembled and manipulated the flame barrier, extending pillars of fire like a hedgehog, proactively stabbing at the tentacles that had already retreated a distance.

Just as the tentacles were retreating under the dual pursuit of the fire pillars and the illusory fish, the spherical flame barrier suddenly opened a circular gap, and two figures dashed out. It was Stonemason and Li Ang.

"Useless."

Williams said indifferently. With a thought, the cyan bricks of the hall instantly softened and collapsed, and countless sand rapidly extended upwards, congealing and solidifying into layers of sturdy stone walls, each ten meters high.

"To be able to advance to a sorcerer in the harsh environment of declining psychic tides, only the most gifted, meticulous, and determined elites among elites can do it."

Williams said gloomily, "With the foundation I've cultivated and arranged in this place for decades, it's enough to kill you countless times."

Bang—

Stonemason swung his chisel, smashing a huge gap in the stone wall. His charging speed didn't decrease at all.

Li Ang ran wildly behind him, and in an instant, the two had broken through several layers of stone walls.

Williams shook his head, commanding the vine tentacles to continue attacking the barrier.

At the same time, he caused countless plants in the swamp below to grow rapidly, hooking onto the walls and weaving into a thick, dense net in the blink of an eye, dividing the hall in two and blocking the path of the attacking mortals.

The two were instantly obstructed. Stonemason gripped the paper-cutting knife, releasing a foot-long blade aura to slash at the net.

However, the net was born and destroyed, destroyed and born, and its recovery speed was faster than the speed of cutting it.

This net was infused with a trace of divine power. Whether it was cut with swords or burned with fire, as long as it wasn't instantly destroyed, it could heal and recover in an instant.

Williams had cultivated in the mansion for many years, using withered ivy and darkwood to construct an energy network that could cycle endlessly.

This behavior of releasing divine power by draining the pond to catch the fish was irreversibly extracting the power of the mansion itself.

He could already hear the mansion's painful cries.

The magic circle was rapidly collapsing, and the forest folk isolated outside were restless, ready to break through the obstacles and reach him at any time.

At that time, he could naturally kill the forest folk through some kind of ritual to maintain his self-awareness from being swallowed by divinity.

Finally, he could repair his body and achieve the transcendence of the essence of life, becoming a complete god.

Thinking about it this way, the reindeer was really stupid. It clearly knew that it could sacrifice the forest folk to exchange for its own eternal life, but it refused to do so.

It simply embraced the divine spark, willingly immersed itself in the mud, never to see the light of day, maintaining the island from being torn apart and destroyed by the seabed plate tremors.

A mere evil spirit forgotten and abandoned by others... Why act as if it were some kind of holy god sacrificing itself for living beings?

Williams sneered in his heart. In the sixteenth century, the reindeer simply wanted to save the colonists who were infected with plague, had crop failures, and were in desperate situations.

Unfortunately, it itself was suffering from the decline of divine power and the loss of self-awareness, so it could only turn the colonists into forest folk, hoping that its own divine power could slowly recover and then turn the forest folk back to their original state.

Williams was worried that the ritual would go wrong and devour him when he performed the divine spark stripping ritual, so he deliberately left behind a notebook.

The notebook recorded the history that Williams had tampered with, as well as the divine spark stripping ritual with some special content added.

Extraordinary people attract each other, and no scholar of mysticism can refuse the opportunity to become a god.

He failed, and he succeeded. The ritual destroyed his body, but later the Leslie family, who had strayed to Roanoke Island, discovered the notebook in the mansion.

The content of the notebook misled the Leslie family into thinking of the reindeer as an evil god, allowing them to perform the ritual without any psychological burden, drawing out its divine power and stripping its divine spark, so that Williams could take the opportunity to resurrect.

Suddenly, Williams felt something was abnormal. In his spiritual sense, the man wearing the cat mask and holding the spear suddenly disappeared.

Only a dark, obscure aura was speeding through the underground.

Williams didn't know about the special effect of Li Ang's Phase Boots, and only understood it as some kind of earth遁 technique.

He sneered, released divine power, softened the soil and sand, and let the plant giant net extend and grow downward, trying to stop the opponent, and said, "It's useless."

?! What's going on? Why does the voice sound like this?

Williams was stunned to find that the speed of the outside scenery had become more than twice as fast. The growth rate of the giant net was faster than his divine sense control speed, and his divine power was rapidly consumed like a flood.

No, it's not that the flow of time outside has accelerated, but that his thinking speed has slowed down...

This sorcerer, who was trying to become a god, was extremely experienced in combat. At the first moment of discovering the abnormality, he released divine power, drew sand from the bricks below, thickened the mud ball, and retreated backward.

At the same time, regardless of the consumption of divine power, he used the dome of the hall as a material to create countless stone spears, indiscriminately sweeping towards the bottom.

These crossbows all carried his divine power, were indestructible, and even if the enemy with the blue cat mask had the ability to phase, he would definitely be pierced by the crossbows the moment he rushed out.

Under the cyan stone, Li Ang, who had obtained a slight hovering ability with the bg skill, soared into the sky, activated Adrenaline Rush and Ripple Breathing, and used the spear in his hand to pick off the stone spears that were coming straight at him.

Stonemason in the distance also released some kind of skill, turning the small paper-cutting knife into the size of a shoulder-mounted rocket launcher, and shooting blades forward, deflecting the stone spears around Li Ang.

After his thinking speed slowed down, Williams couldn't use the stone spears for precise shooting, but even if the masked man broke through the layers of obstacles, so what?

This mud ball barrier was constructed by him at the cost of a huge amount of divine power. No one but him could penetrate it...

"Seize!"

Li Ang, who was flying in mid-air, shouted with full energy: "Son of a bitch, you're just a monster that's neither human nor ghost.

Your grandfather will be pointed at when playing chess, your grandmother will be half a beat slow when dancing in the square, your father will have 3456 without 7 when playing Dou Dizhu, and your mother will definitely raise the price across the board when cooking."

In the inventory, one of the two Hate-Drawing Taunt Scrolls disappeared again.

For some reason, Williams, whose thinking was already sluggish, was dominated by anger. He removed part of the mud ball barrier and roared at Li Ang at the gap: "Die for me!"

Countless stone nails the size of chopsticks, constructed from the sand stripped from the mud ball barrier, stabbed at Li Ang overwhelmingly.

The attack opportunity created by the Hate-Drawing Taunt Skill Scroll was fleeting. Li Ang, who was suspended in the air, held the triangular bone-tipped wall in one hand,

and raised the steel shield he had used in the Ruined Building Fool mission in the other, blocking his head.

He directly released the thrust behind him, rushing towards the thousands of stone nails.

Not only that, but Chai Da Xiaojie's eight arms also drilled out of his chest.

Two of the eight arms were holding stone arms, and four were holding machine guns.

Da da da da,

The machine guns fired and swept, knocking away part of the stone nails, while the stone arms danced like electric fans, knocking away a few more stone nails.

The remaining stone nails easily penetrated the steel shield, but were slightly hindered by the ripple energy contained within, and their remaining force weakened. They could only leave deep blood marks on Li Ang's skin, unable to cause fatal injuries.

Li Ang directly threw out the shield to block the shooting stone nails, drank a bottle of miniature life potion, healed all the wounds on his body, and at the same time released the 【Drowning Assassination Technique】 that had been buffered.

Before Williams could react, his respiratory system was filled with frantically surging water. What was worse was that Chai Da Xiaojie also activated it, trying to extract blood from the embryo from a distance.

The power of the Bloodworm Crowbar was not enough to strip plasma from the body of the divine spark.

However, the discomfort of the blood surging, coupled with the pain of drowning and the sluggishness of his thinking, was enough to make Williams lose his mind and reveal a fleeting flaw.

Sha—

Li Ang threw the triangular bone-tipped spear towards the embryo to activate its special effect. The bone blade crossed several meters and stabbed straight into the brain of the deformed embryo.

No! I can't die here!

Williams could already feel that thousands of forest folk had broken through the constantly weakening magic circle and were rushing towards the underground hall frantically.

Boom—

The already crumbling dome above the hall completely collapsed, and densely packed, countless forest folk fell like black rain,砸on the floor of the hall.

The thick-skinned forest folk were not injured or killed. As soon as they got up, they rushed towards the players under the drive of some kind of冥冥感召.

With the forest folk, he could not spend his self-will to maintain existence, could have an endless army,

and could become the god of the new world.

Driven by fear, Williams squeezed out the last trace of intangible divine power, turning it into an extremely thin shield.

This divine power did not rely on any material existence, but was simply a force beyond the imagination of mortals.

The bone blade stabbed the divine power shield, and the indestructible spear tip melted rapidly at a visible speed.

"You will die here."

A difficult, hoarse, indifferent, and cold female voice rang in Williams's spiritual consciousness.

That was the original owner of the embryo body, the last descendant of the Leslie family who had been attracted to the island by the power of blood.

This witch exhausted her last bit of sanity, snatched back control of the embryo body from Williams's hands, and forcibly dispelled the divine power.

"No! What have you done!" Williams roared, trapped in his body and powerless, "You will die too!"

The witch completely ignored him. She simply drove the twisted, deformed body, crawled out, lowered her head, and met the oncoming broken spear blade without resistance.

[Cleared eight abnormal organs from Williams's mansion: heart, lungs, intestines, kidneys, limbs, torso, head, and embryo]

[The script mission "Clockwork Mansion" is complete. There are 5 minutes left before teleportation. You can choose to teleport immediately]

The moment the system notification sounded, the mud ball suddenly dissipated, and the plant giant net collapsed to the ground, leaving only the mad forest folk still attacking the players fearlessly.

Forest Cat and the others, whose defense line was about to be lost, chose to teleport immediately, and Stonemason, who was surrounded by the forest folk, also disappeared instantly.

Li Ang was still hovering in mid-air relying on the bg skill. He glanced at the densely packed forest folk who almost filled the spacious hall, rolled the spear in his hand, took the embryo in his hand, chose to teleport, and disappeared in place.
