Absolute Defense
William had no idea what Lancelot was thinking.
But what he really wanted to say was that the Water of Life was, of course, incredibly precious to others, a divine life-saving treasure capable of bringing the dead back to life.
But for him, who possesses hundreds of drops...
Trading some Water of Life for a Legendary Ring- type shield would be a huge win.
Especially since he knew the location of the World Tree Sapling, there was no reason for him to cherish such a small amount of the Water of Life.
Hatov never borrowed anything from outside, yet he possessed many spoils of war, which he often distributed to well-behaved clergy members or added to his own Collection Room.
The Ring wasn't a trophy; it was a treasure awarded to him by the Temple of Light for his outstanding performance, but he had never used it.
Time passed gradually.
The Temple Knight ' expressions gradually changed.
Because William ultimately held on for 10 minutes.
Even though he was covered in wounds, had lost countless pounds of blood, and his armor was almost completely destroyed, he truly held on.
It's not the kind of persistence that comes from being unilaterally beaten, but the kind of persistence that allows for retaliation.
Although William didn't have the chance to last 30 minutes and thus receive the extra random reward...
But he still won.
[Hint: You have completed Hatov's challenge]
[Hint: You lasted 11 minutes and 23 seconds]
[Hint: You have obtained the ' Ring of the Holy Light Shield ']
[Hint: You have gained 300,000 experience points]
The moment William shouted that he was conceding defeat, he sat down heavily on the ground, panting heavily. He glanced at Hatov, whose fist was frozen in mid-air, but ultimately did not bring it down.
Otherwise, he would have used the Water of Life again. After holding out for 10 minutes, this Buff Guy really beat himself to death, each punch as heavy as a mountain and full of unimaginable power.
His defenses were as tough as an old tortoise's, and his speed was as fast as a rabbit's.
If he hadn't just swallowed several drops of the Water of Life, he might have been beaten to death.
Hatov reluctantly took off the Ring, threw it at William, and said, "You're not manly enough. What's the point of only lasting 10 minutes? Try lasting 30 minutes if you dare."
"What's 30 minutes? Assassin only needs 1 second to unleash their attack."
"No, a real man lasts 30 minutes!"
"Sorry, I'm still just a kid..." William shrugged. He's still a minor, you know.
He was certain that by the time he came of age, he would be absolutely capable of making Hatov unable to take care of himself.
Hatov was speechless. Yes, William was a Half-Elf, but at 18, he was still a minor. However, Hatov, who had been in control, was still enjoying the fight, at least he wasn't the one getting beaten up. So he reached out and helped William up.
"Regardless, you're not bad. Lightning Element is a branch of Light Element, so are you interested in joining the Temple of Light?"
"???" William's eyes widened. He had never seen such a shameless person. How dare you say that Lightning Element is just a branch of Light Element?
Besides, weren't you going a bit too far with your methods of poaching people?
I'm a lord, you know...
Lancelot was also a little embarrassed. At this moment, he walked over to Hatov and whispered something in his ear. Hatov then looked at William with surprise. "So it's you, Dawn City Lord. But you can also become Temple Knight and make your city a branch of the Temple of Light."
"..." The Prince was speechless once again. Your shamelessness is just as good as mine.
Just as Hatov was about to say something, the Sound Transmission Scroll in his arms made a sound. He frowned, said goodbye to William, and turned to leave.
Not even a few dozen seconds later.
When Hatov returned, he completely ignored William and Lancelot, and left with 10 Legion of Temple Knight, presumably because something had gone wrong.
Lancelot was also somewhat surprised. What circumstances would prompt the Temple of Light to directly mobilize 10 Legion of Temple Knight?
And another Domain Warrior?
That's right.
Those Professional cultivate Battle Aura and reach the Epic Tier are called Domain Warrior, Domain Ranger, Domain Assassin, and so on.
so...
The difference between Grandmaster and Epic, or between 'Jedi' and 'Domain', is truly worlds apart.
If Hatov really wanted to kill William, even if ten thousand William attacked together, they would only die.
The two were curious about what mission Hatov had received.
Lancelot is currently Temple Envoy in the Southeastern Region. He has no connections at headquarters and cannot find out anything.
William, citing exhaustion, went back to rest.
only.
He did not go directly back to the side hall where he lived.
Instead, he found himself in a deserted garden. He briefly used his Soul Perception his surroundings and then reached into a very conspicuous vase.
He then touched a hard object!
He did not put it into his Space Ring.
Instead, he held it tightly in his hand, even looking at it curiously. He then walked up to a Temple Knight, deliberately waving the box in front of him, and asked for directions before returning to his residence.
One hour later.
William realized that no one was looking for him, which meant that the little box really didn't have any tracking Magic, only a Magic that could shield one's presence.
The contents of that small box were the purpose of his trip.
As for this discovery...
It was also found by a Player from the Temple of Light by chance.
In the game Gods, there are many kinds of equipment, and you don't necessarily have to obtain them by killing other players.
For example, certain historical sites.
Some ancient battlefields.
This often allows Player to find equipment.
Similar to the small box inside this vase.
It was only when that Player was idly searching around that they found it.
Like treasure chests in many games, it brings a lot of fun to Player.
but.
These Legendary treasure chests are still too few...
"But all in all, we still made a huge profit this time. Although we lost some Water of Life, the ' Ring of the Holy Light Shield ' is Legendary Ring with no rank restrictions, and its effects are even stronger and better than the Cursed Sword."
One of my moves was an absolute defense, which is the key reason why I was willing to use so much of my Water of Life to hold out for ten minutes.
William chuckled. This Ring had made a Player famous in his previous life, allowing him to grind his way to Legendary and become one of the top ten Shield Warrior in all of Huaxia.
His Prince did not open the small box.
He decided to check the Ring's attributes first, since seeing is believing, and the person hadn't posted all the Ring's attributes and effects.
