Lord Game: I Have 100 Million Talents-Chapter 74 - 65: I Will Strike in Priest Form!!

Axenel looked confused.

"Why?"

"If you already knew!"

"Why didn’t you expose me right away?"

"And have your soldiers strike first, rush in, and kill me?"

’Why?’

’Of course, it was to make the other Ratmen in the village submit to me wholeheartedly!’

’You’re the one who cheated!’

’Not me!’

’If I can defeat you and your ambushers fair and square in a Holy Duel, then becoming the Lord of all the Golden Deer Tribe Ratmen will be perfectly legitimate—a matter of destiny!’

’If I had just attacked you from the start, and you later denied ever planning an ambush... wouldn’t that make me look like a villainous invader, bullying the weak?’

’I’d just end up inciting the anger and hatred of the other Golden Deer Ratmen!’

’They’d all enter a "fight-to-the-death, never-surrender" state!’

’So what would have been the point of me spending all this time coming here in person today?’

’I might as well have just sent the Wolf Pack Army to steamroll you all!’

’Of course.’

’To be on the safe side...’

’I already gave Ashes a secret order.’

’If I couldn’t beat you and your ambushers, it was to fly out the small window in the roof and send for help, ordering the Desert Giant Wolves and Ratman Warriors to come rescue me.’

’Then...’

’The other Ratmen would see you cheating in the Holy Duel.’

’Even if I lost the challenge, they’d understand what really happened and wouldn’t abandon the idea of submitting to me.’

’Not that I think I could possibly lose, though...’

In a flash, Qin Feng answered all of Axenel’s questions in his mind. But he didn’t voice any of it, instead speaking slowly to the Ratman:

"Axenel."

"You still have a chance to turn back."

"Tell your Ratman Warriors to stand down. We can have a true Holy Duel."

"If I win."

"You and the Golden Deer Tribe will swear loyalty to me."

"If you win."

"I’ll leave at once and never again speak of you swearing loyalty to me—not until you wish to become my people of your own free will..."

Axenel chuckled.

"Hah!"

"Turn back?"

"Human, even if you hadn’t come to see me today, I would have found a chance to go to your territory and take your head!"

"This is the revelation given to me by the great ancestors!"

Its crimson pupils flashed, and the imperial longsword in its hand began to seep a faint golden light.

"When I learned that you, damned human, planned to subjugate our Golden Deer Tribe and turn us into your vassals and lackeys!"

"The ancestors in the Hall of Heroes immediately bestowed upon me new, incomparably Powerful strength!"

"They made me into the Legendary Heroic Spirit Warrior!"

"In my dreams, they told me... that I must kill you with my own hands! Only then can I avenge our fallen Ratman brethren and allow our northern Ratman Tribes to rise again in this forest!"

It thrust its longsword forward, the tip aimed straight at Qin Feng’s throat.

"So!"

"Today, you must die!"

"You missed your chance to have those troublesome Demon Beast giant wolves stop me. Now, you’re out of opportunities!"

"Men! Attack! Kill him!"

As he finished speaking, the hidden Ratman Warriors swarmed out. They were all just Zero-star (White) grunts; there wasn’t a single Leader Level Ratman among them.

And Brand, the one who had been so eager to suck up, was not among them.

Clearly.

This dishonorable "ambush," an insult to the Ancestral Heroic Spirits, was a personal revenge scheme led by Axenel alone. It did not have the support of most of the Golden Deer Ratmen.

’How ignorant.’

’It’s almost frightening.’

’You really don’t know that all of us Divine Chosen Lords have Infinite Resurrection?’

As he spoke, Qin Feng’s fingertip traced a mystical arc in the Void. The Ancient Wood Battle Shield and Lord’s Longsword erupted from his weapon slot, and a pure white Lord’s Cloak washed over his body like a tide.

The wood grain on the dark brown shield’s face twisted and writhed as if alive, while the biting chill glinting off the sword’s blade reflected his stern profile.

When Qin Feng crossed the two weapons before his chest, he looked like a Martial God descended, having waded through mountains of corpses and seas of blood. The sword and shield scraped together, showering grim, metallic sparks.

"Today!"

"You cannot kill me!"

"But you will pay for your foolishness with your life!"

Sigmar Combat Priest form!

Activate!

Dash!

In a flash, Qin Feng’s figure closed in like a phantom. His Ancient Wood Battle Shield whistled through the air as it smashed directly into a Ratman’s face.

BAM!

The moment the muffled sound rang out, the Ratman Warrior saw stars from the impact. The Lord’s Longsword then struck like a viper, exploiting the fatal opening created by the Shield Strike to precisely sever its artery.

Next, Qin Feng raised his shield. With a CLANG, he parried a short blade hacking at him from the side. His own sword’s edge swept back in the same motion, and with a wet SQUELCH, it pierced through another Ratman Warrior’s chest.

However, he was outnumbered, and his opponents were Elite Soldier Types with plenty of Combat Experience.

Qin Feng was soon struck by the Ratman Warriors’ attacks.

[You have taken a slashing attack from a Ratman Warrior! Life Value -2!]

[You have been pierced by a Ratman Warrior’s spear! Life Value -3!]

[You have taken a critical hit from a Ratman Warrior! Life Value -6!]

The six pieces of starter Lord’s Equipment didn’t provide any extra armor or Extra Life Value.

So all the damage Qin Feng was taking was directly to his body.

The damage should have been at least 20 points or more.

But the Legendary power of the Sigmar Combat Priest was now surging through Qin Feng’s body. Though he only had a little over fifty Constitution Points, his Physical Resistance and Magic Resistance had nearly doubled in an instant.

On top of that, a holy blessing bestowed by Sigma provided an additional 20% Physical Resistance and 20% Magic Resistance.
