Beating Instances through Words Left by the Dead

Chapter 491: Chapter 249: Joy

The hymn-like Schultz, maintaining the two-hundred-meter height of the Child of Sin, had an All-Knowing Crystal embedded in his brow that did not grow larger. Its size was finer than the pores on a human face, yet everyone who saw Schultz for the first time could not help but focus their gaze on the All-Knowing Crystal.

At this moment, the All-Knowing Crystal was the core of the Plane.

Everyone’s attention was unconsciously drawn to it, seeing it was like witnessing the truth of the world, the reality of the universe.

No one knew what the purpose of the All-Knowing Crystal was, but those who saw it knew it was extraordinary, definitely a treasure, and they wished they could claim it immediately.

Except Wu Chang.

His gaze was also drawn to the All-Knowing Crystal, but the instant he saw it, his eyes burned as if scorched by something, causing a sharp, soul-piercing pain, forcing him to look away.

His inspiration and body were both resisting the All-Knowing Crystal.

One must know his current Will Attribute exceeded 170 points, even if Schultz did launch a spiritual attack on him, he shouldn’t have such a strong reaction.

What surprised him even more was that through the perspective of his True Self, he found that Booker and the others felt no discomfort; they were all gazing greedily at the All-Knowing Crystal.

Was this thing targeting only him?

Unable to look directly at the All-Knowing Crystal, Wu Chang turned his attention to Schultz.

He could no longer see black and white on Schultz, Virtue and Sin were perfectly interwoven within Schultz.

The two powers within Schultz achieved an effect greater than the sum of their parts; the current Schultz’s power had surpassed the Evil God Remains on the Silent Route, and the incompletely descended Desire Mother Goddess in the Underground Shelter.

To say he’s the most powerful being Wu Chang had encountered in the Abyssal Game would not be an exaggeration.

He could feel Schultz’s strength, and naturally, Perun and Mercury could feel it too.

The overwhelming pressure hit, causing the previously composed Perun to coldly frown.

Will they win?

Definitely die.

Perun felt the gap between them. If he were present in full form, he could crush Schultz with one hand, but facing the challenge in this descended state, he was the true challenger.

He knew there was little hope of victory, but he still prepared to try, as he didn’t have the habit of retreating from a fight.

Hah!

He waved the reins on the chariot, and the two giant rams stepped forward, charging directly at Schultz.

Facing Perun’s assault, Schultz’s brow shimmered, and starlike points of light gathered around him.

Several stars twinkled, creating walls of earth out of thin air before Perun, with flashing starlight transforming into meteors that hurled toward the racing Perun.

The earth walls represented the Earth, inherently restraining the Thunder powers, which couldn’t pierce through them and could only rely on the chariot’s brute force to shatter them.

But each time a wall was shattered, a portion of the Power of Lightning from the chariot was drained, quickly absorbed and digested by Schultz, then re-released as thicker and sturdier earth walls.

After breaking through four earth walls, the two rams had returned from their Thunder Spirit Body form to normal, their legs wobbling, speed slowing, and when facing the newly formed earth walls, they showed fear, their fierce eyes much clearer.

Stop crashing; the brain’s going to get smashed.

Perhaps sensing the rams’ fear, Perun pulled the reins closer, no longer attempting to ram through, but trying to maneuver around the walls.

But even if he wanted to, the falling meteors from the sky wouldn’t allow it.

Each meteor locked on, relentlessly pursuing him regardless of how he changed directions.

What troubled him more was that the energy attached to the meteors also had the Earth Attribute, making it impossible to intercept with the Power of Lightning. He could only wield his great axe, smashing them one by one.

With each collision, he could feel part of his Power of Lightning being siphoned off by the meteors, just like when he shattered the earth walls with his chariot.

Though the absorption speed wasn’t as fast as with the earth walls, each meteor was only about a meter in diameter, and the power drained from him was converted into new meteors.

Of the meteors crashing towards him, at least seventy percent were fueled by his own energy, not to mention his own consumption when shattering them.

With all these layers of barriers, defeating Schultz, let alone even reaching him, was exceedingly difficult.

The Power of the Earth, Meteor Summoning, Energy Absorption—just from the abilities shown, Schultz was using three kinds, ingeniously combining them.

How do you even play this?

Teammates, assist, please!

Trapped in the meteor shower, Perun requested assistance while Mercury and Aksu didn’t remain idle, attacking Schultz simultaneously.

But the hymn-like Schultz, like a precise machine, multitasked without error.

To handle the swift-moving Mercury, who could unleash sharp slashes, he employed the Slow Domain and Gravity Field to restrict Mercury’s actions, while enveloping him in a dense toxic mist to block Mercury’s movements, causing area-wide continuous damage.

To handle Aksu, he directly used physical methods to sever Aksu’s connection with the other two, and using a skill similar to Gluttonous Ant’s swarm generation, summoned a small insect swarm to charge at Aksu.

Aksu, proficient in support and healing, mainly possessed single-target explosive skills, and facing the endless insect swarm, found the snake that animated from his snake staff already had a third of its scales gnawed away by the swarm, only just managing to protect himself, unable to exert pressure on Schultz.

Fighting one against three, Schultz was able to pursue and attack the three of them singlehandedly; it wasn’t that Perun and the others weren’t skilled, but that Schultz’s skills were the problem.
