Chapter 341 New Demon King Local Forces
Hearing Wang Zhifan's casual treatment of the Dragon Origin, the Rune Elf Dumbo was surprised. It widened its eyes and replied:
"Adventurer, can I really do this? Are you kidding?"
But Wang Zhifan showed a little impatience and immediately waved his hand to let it handle it by itself.
"Do whatever you want! I'm not interested in this thing!"
After that, Wang Zhifan took out the black giant sword, the Sinful Great Sword, from the space ring and did his own thing.
In this way, Dumbo knew that he really didn't like the Dragon Origin that he had finally stripped out, and quickly flew out of the abyss, using his long nose to roll up the energy ball full of dark breath, and arrived at the ground above the abyss.
When it arrived, the Dark Night Clan girl Itris, who was lying here, had already fainted because of her serious injuries and could die at any time.
"To weaken the Demon King, this is the only way!"
Dumbo was actually a little reluctant to give the Dragon Essence to the Dark Night girl whom he didn't know at all and even belonged to the enemy, but time was urgent and he couldn't contain this energy. Wang Zhifan, the best carrier, was unwilling to do so, so he had to recite the spell and force the Dragon Essence into the dying girl.
For a moment, as the energy ball with a strong dark aura merged into Itris' body, her many injuries began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the strength of her body's aura also rose steadily, from the initial elite soldier level, quickly upgraded to the elite captain level, then the ordinary leader level, the powerful leader level, until it broke through to the threshold of the Demon King!
At the same time, Wang Zhifan, who was still in the abyss, also had a lot of gains. He used the Sin Great Sword in his hand to successfully absorb the soul residue of the bone dragon after it was killed. This not only greatly improved the quality of this growth weapon, but also made the bone dragon never turn over again. After all, its soul and resurrection ability were deprived, reaching the real death.
"I have to say that the Sin Great Sword is very good. It can absorb the soul of the dead and nail the coffin of the dead in disguise. It is also a means of restraining resurrection."
Wang Zhifan evaluated the Sin Great Sword in the abyss, which had grown significantly due to absorbing the soul of the bone dragon. Then he stepped on the completely cold bone dragon skull and rushed to the cliff of the abyss, rushing to the side of the dark night girl Itris who had just merged with powerful power.
At this time, Itris had just woken up from a coma. She climbed up from the hard rock ground with a slightly confused expression. She felt that her body had undergone earth-shaking changes. Her whole body was filled with an unprecedented sense of power and darkness. She had no idea what was going on.
In front of her, a funny-looking little Dumbo with a long nose was staring at her, as if observing some strange creature.
"Lucky lady, congratulations! You have merged the original power of the Undead Dragon, and it seems that you are quite compatible with this original power."
Dumbo found that Itris stood up and looked at it, and immediately spoke, telling her what happened.
"I merged the power of the Undead Dragon?! Are you talking about the Guardian of the Abyss?!"
Itris's expression changed from confusion to astonishment in an instant. She first looked at the Dumbo in front of her, and then raised her hands to look at it. It was difficult for her to directly digest such a huge amount of information.
But before she could sort out her thoughts, a tall figure flew up from the nearby abyss and landed in front of her.
"Woman, what's your name?"
Wang Zhifan asked this lucky girl of the Dark Night Clan as soon as he came over. She used to be just a small soldier in his eyes, but now the situation has changed.
"I... my name is Itris..."
The girl from the Dark Night Clan was obviously very afraid of Wang Zhifan who suddenly arrived in front of her, especially because she felt that even with her current power that had skyrocketed countless times, it was still difficult to see through the young man in front of her, so she told the truth directly under the tension.
"Itris... well, I will remember you. We may need your power in the future. I hope you can choose the right side at that time."
Wang Zhifan then nodded slightly and commented, then stretched out the evil sword in his hand to the newly promoted quasi-demon king-level girl, raising his voice a little:
"Itris! Your first battle after gaining power has come! Get ready to face my test!"
Before he finished speaking, Wang Zhifan jumped high and held the evil sword high in the air. All his skills were gathered on this weapon, making this advanced equipment that had gained a lot of growth burst out circles of violent tornado-like terrifying air waves, as if he was the real demon king.
"No... I..."
Iris had never seen such a person who was talking nicely just now and then wanted to chop people with a sword the next second. After gaining power, she understood the strength of this human even more, and she wanted to admit defeat and stop fighting for a while.
But Wang Zhifan didn't care about so much. He said a polite word before attacking, which was considered to have laid all the groundwork for this test weapon.
So the top-level power confrontation appeared again at the edge of the abyss. Wang Zhifan raised the sword of sin and hit Itris on the ground below with all his strength. Itris was locked by his extremely powerful momentum and had no way to avoid it. She could only bite the bullet and use the dark power that she was not familiar with to resist.
Boom! ! ! In an instant, the mushroom cloud reappeared on the earth. The battle ended as soon as it started, leaving only a huge pit that extended to the nearby abyss.
"She was really killed in seconds, and there was not even a slag left of her body. It seems that her original body limited her power."
At the edge of the huge pit, Wang Zhifan's figure slowly fell, and next to him was Dumbo, who looked speechless.
"Adventurer, why did you kill her? What we should do is to win her over."
Dumbo thought that Wang Zhifan's behavior just now was very reckless and offended a powerful helper who needed to be won over.
"I just want to try the power of this sword..."
Wang Zhifan answered indifferently, his eyes swept over the huge and heavy sword of sin in his hand.
"Besides, isn't this just a good opportunity to see if she can be resurrected?"
Feeling satisfied with the giant sword that had grown to this point, Wang Zhifan put it back into the space ring again, and then looked at the center of the giant pit, searching for signs of the resurrection of a disappeared girl.
After several seconds, he really relied on his powerful perception to find some traces, such as a very weak dark force gathering in the center of the giant pit, which seemed to want to be recast into a form, but was obstructed by some powerful force in the process, which was quite unsmooth.
"She should be able to be resurrected, but she was blocked by my power, and the process would be a bit long."
After observing for a while, Wang Zhifan came to a conclusion. Referring to the experience he had gained from the bone dragon not long ago, Itris could still be resurrected. After all, her essence had been raised countless times, enough to resist the suppression of his sword intent effect, but this kind of confrontation would take a lot of time.
"Adventurer, maybe you can defeat the Demon King by yourself... No, kill it! It should not be able to revive now!"
Dumbo sighed as he looked at the huge pit on the ground. He decided to follow Wang Zhifan because he found that he was very powerful in the tower. Now he feels more and more that his judgment is correct. This mysterious man is much stronger than he initially thought.
"If the Demon King really can't be resurrected, it may not be a good thing for the players..."
Wang Zhifan thought of the goal of this dungeon after hearing this, to participate in killing the Demon King once. From this description, it can be inferred that the Demon King can be killed multiple times, but if the Demon King has no ability to revive, the players who fail to kill it for the first time will be in big trouble.
But he thought about it again and felt that his thinking was not correct, because the Demon King is just a name, and does not specify a specific individual!
"That bone dragon said it was the former demon king, and it has been sent... The one in the seal is the current demon king, and it still has a life for the time being... Then when Iris is resurrected and the current demon king is killed, won't Iris become the new demon king! That's right, this dungeon is very thoughtful for the players!"
After a little thought, Wang Zhifan was sure that his worry about not having a demon king to kill was groundless. With the blessing of the resurrection ability, this thing is simply an infinitely renewable resource. The only flaw is that Iris, who was killed by him just now, has not been recognized as a demon king by the dungeon, otherwise he would have cleared this dungeon by now.
"We don't need to waste time waiting for her to revive. Let's go find the demon king and kill it directly."
Jumping away from the edge of the giant pit, Wang Zhifan turned and walked towards the depths of the underground wilderness.
"But the demon king is very likely to come to her after it is out of the seal! It will definitely find a way to regain its resurrection ability!"
Seeing this, Dumbo reminded from behind, saying that Iris is very valuable and is the only choice to attract the demon king.
Wang Zhifan paused for a moment, then turned around and responded:
"Don't worry, I will arrange someone to keep an eye on her! But it's too passive to keep guarding her, and taking the initiative is my style! When I finish harvesting the monster souls in the remaining area, it's time to prepare for the decisive battle... Speaking of which, I now lack imagination about the so-called Demon King, and many signs indicate that its strength may not be very high."
Wang Zhifan's tone was filled with irritability, an irritability of running around for several days just to fight a weak monster. It must be said that this feeling has some dampening people's enthusiasm.
"Adventurer, you can't underestimate the Demon King... Its strength..."
After hearing his speech, Dumbo subconsciously wanted to give a reminder, but he stopped talking because he suddenly felt that Wang Zhifan should be right and he was indeed qualified to say such things.
The man and the spirit quickly left the area of the giant pit while talking, and only Wang Zhifan left a clone to secretly monitor the resurrection process and subsequent movements of Itris.
About a day later, Wang Zhifan had slaughtered most of the underground wilderness and completed the feeding of the Greatsword of Sin, causing the power of this weapon to grow close to its limit. As for the originally planned intelligence gathering work, he abandoned it because he did not want to investigate the demon king anymore and only wanted to find it quickly and kill it to end this copy.
So the exploration of the endless dungeon came to an end. Wang Zhifan returned to the ground directly by entering and breaking the dream, that is, he returned to the expedition team clone that escorted the expedition team to search for clues about the demon king in the underground wilderness.
After being attacked by the demon king's power, the expedition team left the dungeon non-stop. During the process, they encountered many monsters, but with the intentional help of Wang Zhifan's clone, they passed smoothly. This also laid a good foundation for Wang Zhifan in this team. Everyone knew that he had good combat power and helped them, and they had already regarded him as their own.
"The dream of my clone of the Great Dream Sword Sutra did not help me much in terms of combat power, but it was extremely comprehensive and excellent in terms of assistance. Except that it was a little troublesome to control... I have to work hard to cultivate to the level of allocating personal will, so that they have real autonomous action capabilities."
At this time, Wang Zhifan was already in a prosperous city in the Western medieval style. This was the capital of a kingdom and the base camp of the expedition team he escorted.
The place where he is currently staying is a fortress in the core area of this city. It is said that this place belongs to the royal family and is currently used to house middle-level personnel who deal with the crisis of the demon king.
Unlike the manor where the nobles use for leisure, the fortress has insufficient lighting and the rooms are mostly small and cramped. Wang Zhifan stayed inside for a while and then sat on the grass outside to rest, waiting for the arrival of intelligence from local forces.
He didn't have to wait too long. A young man of medium build wearing a jacket found him basking in the sun, which made him stand up involuntarily.
"We have inquired for you. If you want to join the army of the King's capital to resist the Demon King, you must pass a special combat capability test and background check. This aspect is relatively easy to handle... But if you want to join the team of senior professionals who directly fight against the Demon King, you need a recommender, and it must be a prestigious noble recommender. This is not easy to do... I suggest that you join the army first, like us players, and when the Demon King appears, you will leave the team to besiege it. Anyway, everyone will leave after the dungeon is completed, and the subsequent impact does not matter..."
The person who spoke was the gunner player that Wang Zhifan met in the underground wilderness before. He was not wearing the iconic cowboy hat now, but his injuries had healed. From this, we can know that there are senior professionals in the field of treatment in this place, so that the influence of the Demon King's power on them can be easily eliminated.
"Since it is not easy to join the senior team, I will simply not join the army. It is too troublesome. I will find a way to participate in the battle when the time comes."
Wang Zhifan replied after hearing what the player said, which made the other party look a little surprised.
"Brother Wang, you can join my sergeant team. This team is full of players. It was established by a big guy using props to trick NPCs. When the battle starts, we will go straight to the devil together. It is better than you fighting alone."
This person insisted that Wang Zhifan join them, probably because he valued Wang Zhifan's combat power.
