[Review: With this, you'll be the coolest kid in hell!]
Another Tier 2 Golden Legendary!
And it lives up to that reputation.
Ethan reached out and grasped its cold, smooth hammer handle.
When you slowly lift it from the flat canvas.
A golden glow emanated from the silvery-white shell.
Like the halo around a light bulb.
It was filled with a sense of sacredness and purity.
"Gurgle."
Several blood-red eyeballs rolled.
The instant our eyes met.
Sizzle sizzle.
Ethan's vision was like a broken television screen, flashing countless colors.
On its silvery-white exterior are engraved ancient magical runes, the teachings of a high-ranking figure reflected in the mirror.
When learning this magic rune.
The way it was written automatically formed in Ethan's mind.
Mr. Blake said, "Without its way of expression...it seems the understanding is not deep enough."
"Too perfect, too sacred..."
Ethan muttered to himself, lost in thought.
Looking at this flawless silver hammer.
When you hold it.
It was enveloped in its golden light.
Ethan felt a surge of righteous energy welling up within him.
It's as if they've already donned white robes and transformed into gods and Buddhas who save all living beings!
"I can't bear to see others suffer... Don't be afraid, wandering souls, I'm coming!"
"I will end your suffering now!!"
talking.
Ethan then broke through the windows and climbed out one by one.
We went outside from Luna's second-floor bedroom.
no way.
The pure white gate formed from the basilisk's body was simply too enormous.
There's not enough room in the bedroom.
However, it's probably late at night and no one is paying attention to what he's doing.
With a whoosh, a pure white door appeared, rising and expanding continuously.
An extreme chill emanated from it.
Kamika.
The lush green grass around us was gradually covered with a layer of white frost.
finally.
It transformed into a giant gate, over ten meters high, standing before Ethan.
[Hissing...]
The snake's body, which forms the door frame, slowly wriggles.
Its orange-yellow vertical pupils opened, looking down at Ethan, and it flicked out its crimson tongue.
Little master, long time no see... Hmm?!
The basilisk suddenly froze.
Before it appeared a "strange person" wearing a white veil (protective skirt) on his head and holding a silver-white heavy hammer.
Its entire body was enveloped in a layer of brilliant golden light.
However, that strange heavy hammer was dripping blood continuously.
Basilisk: [—]
After not seeing it for a while, how come its little owner has evolved again?
Whenever it thinks its little owner has reached the limits of human capability.
The little owner will show it through his actions that humans can also choose not to be human.
Good evening, little snake.
Ethan raised his hand and patted the basilisk's smooth body.
With a thud, he hoisted the heavy hammer onto his shoulder.
He flashed a bright, cheerful smile:
"Dad, I'm going in to save all living beings!"
Done.
He then lifted his foot and stepped into the extremely cold doorway.
Arriving in a hidden realm beyond the world.
You have entered the gate of pure white.
The lights are on, guiding you on your way.
A ray of orange-yellow light spread out, extending like a thread all the way to the end of the white mist.
Just like last time.
The chill of death seeps into your bones and gnaws at your flesh.
But this time, under the power of a brighter light.
It kept the cold air out.
Ethan held the "Grip of Mercy".
I felt waves of warmth flowing through my entire body.
This is the power of the "Fire" rune.
The flame of life, the flame of protection.
This warmth will inevitably attract the souls of the dead who yearn for life!
Ah—.—·Ah—
Like the groan of a dying person.
The sound of fingernails scraping against glass echoed from all directions.
Followed by.
They were countless pale, remnant souls!
They stared intently at Ethan with their dark eyes, which were filled with longing and malice.
They kept surging and gathering towards him.
Like a boundless wave!
【Ah———·Ah ah!】
They're going to swallow Ethan whole!
They want to devour that vigorous life force and the warmth of the living!
however.
They didn't see it.
Or rather, there's a lack of rationality in seeing it.
The boy, seen as "prey," curled the corners of his mouth.
Ethan raised his eyes, his cobalt blue pupils fixed on the "Sea of Death" surging toward him.
A ghostly blue light shot into his eyes!
He raised the heavy hammer high in his hand and grinned:
"Father, we've come to take you home!"
The words fell.
The silver-white hammer, imbued with the power of thunder, slammed down with tremendous force!
"Boom!!!"
In an instant.
Like a thunderbolt from the heavens, the mist surged, and the souls of the dead perished in mournful cries!
The entire hidden place was violently shaken!
The hammer fell.
The crackling of lightning lingered in the air.
Like a group of leaping sprites, they surrounded Ethan.
Centered around Ethan.
The ground cracked and collapsed, and in the huge circular area, not a single trace of the dead could be seen.
They cleared the area out!
How could humans possibly attack them?!
The sea of souls paused abruptly for a moment.
It's as if the very nature of the humans ahead has changed.
however.
Driven by the instinct to feel the breath of life.
They gave up thinking long ago.
【Ah———·Ah!】
They wailed and roared.
To fill the void, they continued to flock to Ethan, one after another!
"Eye socket".
Ethan slowly lifted the hammerhead, and splintering debris fell from it.
His cobalt blue eyes gazed at the countless souls clawing at him.
He excitedly licked his back molars.
On the silver-white heavy hammer.
His pupils rolled around, and the blood-red veins throbbed like blood vessels.
Like the blasphemous creations made by the devil to mock the gods, or like a defiled paradise.
It radiates a sacred, brilliant golden light!
Ethan: "I represent the God of Light... to help you find liberation!!"
He gave a low shout.
Like a cheetah, I charged straight into the oncoming wave of death!
He swung the heavy hammer, each strike imbued with the power of thunder.
A flash of lightning.
Sweep across the land!
【ah-!!】
The souls struck by the heavy hammer will instantly vanish in an instant, filled with sorrow and despair.
Then, the position was filled by later undead.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
It was like a ruthless bulldozer.
The brilliant golden light illuminated the perpetually pale and lifeless earth!
"Hahaha!"
Ethan couldn't help but laugh with pure joy.
With each swing of the heavy hammer, a soul was taken away!
Enveloped in flashes of lightning.
At that moment, Ethan seemed like a savior descending from the heavens to earth.
Physical means to deliver all sentient beings from suffering.
at last.
I don't know how much time passed.
"Huff, huff, huff..."
Ethan was panting heavily.
He was carrying a heavy hammer, and his forehead and back were covered in sweat.
【Ah—. Ahh—!】
A weak groan came from beneath her feet.
Ethan looked down and lifted his foot to look.
Then there was a wisp of a soul, trembling and lamenting.
In that dark void, which had always been driven by desire, a fear unlike anything seen before was revealed.
It was as if I wasn't facing a delicious, living person.
It was more like a terrifying monster!
Coach! I'm reporting a fake coach here!! QAQ
Ethan said gently, "Oh, poor thing. You're the only one left behind, aren't you?"
"Don't be afraid."
"I will send you to your next life now."
talking.
Ethan raised the heavy hammer.
It slammed down with a bang.
The world is quiet.
Ethan straightened up.
Wiping the sweat from his brow, he put his hands on his hips, looked around, and said proudly:
"I'm really great."
"So many souls have been freed from suffering."
Ethan stood on the vast, clean, white earth.
All around was empty.
Not a single soul can be seen again!
They cleared the area immediately!
You have passed the test of the dead; you are one step closer to the gate of advancement.
[Because you passed the test in a unique way]
You have gained the "Fear Harvest" skill.
【Dreadful Harvest: Each time you kill an enemy, you replenish your health and mana】
Oh wow.
I also gained a skill.
The more you kill, the stronger you become; the more you kill, the more exhilarated you get.
Ethan: "Hmm... This doesn't quite fit my upright and righteous style. This system is really clumsy."
However, the results were quite good. "As expected, good people are rewarded."
Ethan's eyes crinkled with delight.
[Increased light brightness]
The thick fog in front of us dissipated.
A wide, turbulent river appeared before Ethan's eyes.
Pale blue, with fine gold flecks.
It has a scent that is a mixture of nuts and minerals.
The smell of paint.
You have arrived at the "River in the Painting"
[Promotion path unlocked]
You can reach the final trial grounds by crossing the river depicted in the painting.
The "gatekeeper" is waiting for you.
Followed by.
In the distance, at the edge of the horizon, a great golden light shone.
A roar that Ethan had heard before rang out once more:
"Roar!"
!!!
"Splash!"
The deafening roar, accompanied by a strong wind, made the river churn and roar!
The wind blew Ethan's robes over and sent his black hair flying backward!
...still, it is so powerful and vigorous.
I can't even imagine it.
What kind of behemoth is blocking the gate to advancement?
Ethan gripped the handle tightly, becoming even more excited.
"What I need to do is continue learning ancient magic and raise my skills to the highest level!"
"Then, go and challenge that arrogant and powerful 'gatekeeper'!"
Just then.
Wisps of pale souls poured into the leather pouch at Ethan's waist from all around.
It was as if it was being absorbed by something.
Ethan reached inside and rummaged around.
Finally, he took out the Necronomicon he had obtained in the past.
The pale soul was sucked into it.
Ethan turned the page and was pleasantly surprised to see new text appearing on the next page!
