Chapter 969: Chapter 969: Clash of Debuffs and Buffs
As soon as Tremble’s words were spoken, hundreds of high-level combat personnel from Dark Star fell behind him.
Upon discovering the presence of four unknown and immensely powerful monsters at the headquarters, the Dragon Queen immediately issued a command.
Dark Rising Headquarters truly embodies Gongshu De’s decades of effort. Leaving it behind not only pains Gongshu De but also the other members of Dark Rising who are reluctant to abandon it.
Yet now, the entire Dark Rising has no choice.
Based on Dark Rising’s gathered information, the Four Great Corpse Kings have terrifying Defense and equally exaggerated offensive capabilities.
To annihilate them seems almost impossible.
Therefore, the Dragon Queen ordered: all high-level combat personnel of Dark Rising to remain and engage the Four Great Corpse Kings, while other strong individuals retreat as swiftly as possible, taking with them the headquarters’ system, all valuable data, and precious resources, and find a suitable planet to establish the next headquarters for defense.
This order was sent via the headquarters’ system to every member possessing a Dark Rising Ring.
Middle and low-level members showed mixed feelings—some were relieved, others regretted.
Those relieved naturally felt fortunate to avoid combat with the Four Great Corpse Kings.
The information regarding the Four Great Corpse Kings was indeed not public, but based on notices issued by all celestial divine beings and coupled with the fact that all high-level combat personnel remained to deal with them, it was not difficult to discern how terrifying the Four Great Corpse Kings’ combat power was.
It’s worth noting that the high-level combat members received an order to engage! Not defeat!
Members feeling regret were extremely ambitious.
Missing the opportunity to fight alongside prominent figures in the organization is a lifelong regret for them.
Lin Yi and Xiyue, as members carrying out tasks externally, naturally received this information too.
"Could this be the twist of fate?"
Xiyue gazed at the information transmitted via the ring and couldn’t help but sigh.
"Who knows if rushing back at full speed will still be timely; if it is, maybe we can still grab a piece of the pie in the chaos."
Lin Yi’s face was filled with helplessness.
As the saying goes, the falling flower is intent, but the flowing water is heartless.
If I were at Dark Rising Headquarters right now, how many opportunities would be waiting for me?
The Four Great Corpse Kings are indeed difficult to deal with, but my Undead Army isn’t just a pushover. So many Undead Divine Soldiers and Demon Slayers, even if I couldn’t defeat the Four Great Corpse Kings, creating an opportunity for escape wouldn’t be simple?
Thus, Lin Yi immediately activated the [Plane Certificate] on his hand, heading toward the Dark Rising headquarters at the fastest speed.
Having been isolated for nearly ten thousand years on a resource-less planet, the Four Great Corpse Kings had no idea what was happening in the outside world.
If we look back ten thousand years, the Four Great Corpse Kings were in a top-tier offensive lineup in the Three Realms and Six Paths not considering Defense.
But now, the situation is different.
With various resources supporting them, Dark Rising’s Seven Heroes have already surpassed the Four Great Corpse Kings.
Of course, this isn’t about overall combat power, but Divine Power Level.
Facing Dark Rising’s Seven Heroes, the hearts of the Four Great Corpse Kings, which had been still for thousands of years, began to show signs of faint movement.
"That girl was right; in this fight, we’ll have a lot of fun."
The Drought Demon smiled evilly, and the few sparse white hairs left on her head instantly stood up.
Temperature rising to thousands of degrees rapidly invaded the entire Dark Rising headquarters.
The closer a target is to the Drought Demon, the greater the impact it experiences.
Several retro structures, constructed without high-strength alloy, spontaneously combusted immediately at the headquarters.
Dark Rising’s Seven Heroes and other powerful individuals possess strong Divine Power protection; they can completely withstand this level of temperature. However, the consumption of Divine Power and Taichu is unavoidable.
"This is the power of one of the Four Great Corpse Kings, the Drought Demon!"
The Dragon Queen couldn’t help but sigh.
Each of the Four Great Corpse Kings possesses unique abilities; take the Drought Demon as an example:
The terrifying high temperature became an inherent ability after she became a Corpse King. Usually, to not affect her companions’ living environment, she retracts the high temperature, suppressing it within herself.
Once a battle begins, she can unleash her heat freely, causing ongoing depletion or damage to her enemies.
The release of high temperature is like a continuously activated aura with no consumption. Its activation doesn’t incur any depletion for the Drought Demon; thus, battling the Drought Demon ordinarily activates a debuff that accelerates Divine Power and Taichu consumption.
"Everyone, let me assist you."
The Divination Genius pinched his Spell, spoke incantations, and the crystalline transparent bead in his hand immediately transformed and dissolved quickly.
It divided into seven, turning into seven transparent liquid masses, flying toward the position of Dark Rising’s Seven Heroes, then landing on them and transforming into a transparent barrier that envelops them.
In an instant, a cooling sensation swept over the Seven Heroes’ bodies, isolating all the high temperatures emitted by the Drought Demon outside.
[Bead—Abyss]
Although the Divination Genius follows an assistant path, his strength is indisputable.
The Lifebound Divine Artifact [Prophet] in his hand can foresee fortunes and misfortunes, helping himself and others avoid catastrophe, and it can transform into various aids during combat.
This transformation is highly similar to Divine River Song; however, unlike Divine River Song, this Lifebound Divine Artifact requires occupying a weapon’s equipment slot and cannot autonomously alter its form.
The user must concentrate fully on controlling it to achieve this.
"I also can’t be outdone!"
As one of only two females among the Seven Heroes, the Blood Dance God has rather special abilities.
She, mastering Chaos Law, stands as the c-position among high-level combat forces; however, she isn’t purely an output player.
The Power of Chaos always holds a unique presence among Supreme Laws.
It possesses offensive strength, along with auxiliary capabilities.
Compared to the Destruction Law in terms of offensive strength, it truly falls short.
Compared to Creation and Immortality Law in auxiliary capabilities, it pales in comparison.
However, it can gradually lower an enemy’s various attributes while enhancing its own attributes using its characteristics.
[Blood Dance—Rise]
A bright blood-red light spread onto Dark Rising’s Seven Heroes.
The feeling of being filled with power instantly appeared among the seven.
[Blood Dance—Rise] is an enhancement skill; its boost effect varies from person to person, with a maximum ability to increase all attributes of affected targets by 20-100%!
Everyone, including divine beings, possesses potential yet to be developed.
This potential cannot be unfolded until special circumstances arise.
The Blood Dance God’s ultimate control over the Power of Chaos can just achieve this.
The Power of Chaos, following the bloody light, illuminates the target’s body, and under Blood Dance God’s control, all values in the target’s body are influenced positively, finally fully triggering the unrealized potential as a result of an augmentation buff.
Like most top-tier enhancement skills, once illuminated by the bloody light, targets won’t experience any negative effects after the beneficial effects fade.
