Silvis pulled his longsword from the rock face and turned to see the lich manipulating an alchemical golem to devour a vampire.
A term called "Reversing the Heavenly Gang" came to his mind.
Despite the unbelievable fact, Silvis surprisingly showed no shock.
Perhaps it was because he had spent so much time with these young soldiers that his senses had become somewhat numb, and he seemed unsurprised by anything he saw.
Now that things have come to this, as long as we can win, we can do whatever we want.
After hesitating for a second, Silvis raised his longsword and charged forward.
Forget about propriety and shame, kill the Blood Corpse first.
The longsword pierced the worm's throat, pinning its pencil-sharpen-like head to the ground.
"Aaaaaaaaahhhhhh!"
The worm's obese body continued to writhe in the air. Muller, like a helpless husband, could do nothing but watch as a large group of people dismembered his body, which he had painstakingly created with the Progenitor True Blood.
The alchemical golem initially sought to eat his flesh, which didn't seem very efficient.
But as more and more players noticed the golem's movements, everyone switched from slashing to cutting.
The fat worms are like Turkish kebabs skewered on iron sticks, and each player is a master chef, wielding their sharp blades to cut off the cooked parts one by one.
The alchemical golem quickly discovered this and began to directly grab the sliced Muller from the ground with both hands and stuff him back into its body.
Such a battle...
This can no longer be called a battle; it is a one-sided massacre.
After Muller lost his grip and was pierced through by a single blow, he had already lost his last chance to turn the tide.
Every minute and every second felt like an entire year to him at that moment.
In every moment of rational clarity, I could feel the malice emanating from the enemy.
What Muller didn't know was that in another world, there was a specific word used to describe this kind of punishment—
Lingchi!
Even according to the maximum number of cuts in the death by a thousand cuts method, a person would only be cut 3,600 times.
Unfortunately, Muller's body was simply too large, and despite the players' best efforts, 3,600 knives were simply not enough.
Muller's screams went from chaotic to frantic, and then gradually subsided (his vocal cords had been cut).
Players initially approached Muller with the intention of beating up the boss and breaking its resilience, but as they hacked away, they discovered that the boss's resilience bar didn't regenerate at all.
Before the toughness was broken, it was a Soulslike game; after the toughness was broken, it instantly became a legendary game for farming loot.
The players weren't sure if they'd encountered a bug, but seeing others around them still hacking and slashing, they could only keep swinging their knives.
This emergency mission is calculated based on the damage inflicted on Muller. What if I stop halfway through and don't get my share of the pay?
Driven by the gold coins, the players continued to wield their swords with all their might until the last writhing flesh was stuffed into the alchemical golem.
The alchemical golem had become extremely bloated. Although its body shape had not changed, it walked with the panting and wheezing of a three- or four-hundred-pound child.
Seeing that flesh and blood were about to flow out from the severed neck, Ed quickly manipulated gravity to push the golem's head, which had fallen to the distance, upwards.
The alchemical golem took it with both hands and slammed it onto its head. Willow also descended from the sky and landed in front of the golem.
She placed one hand on the golem and whispered a sentence:
"Cure."
One of the circuits emitted a dazzling light before immediately going out, and the entire golem remained motionless, its hands clasped behind its head.
"Captured alive, mission accomplished."
Willow turned to Ed and said, a confident smile on her face.
"Let's go back."
With a gentle push, the alchemical golem, having completed its sealing task, fell backward into a teleportation portal and vanished instantly into the cavern.
Meanwhile, in Valhalla, the alchemical golem, its movements completely frozen, appeared out of thin air in Willow's laboratory, only to be instantly imprisoned in mid-air by four defensive magic circles as an intruder.
In Klaf City, although all the pieces of flesh had been collected, the cave still reeked of blood, and the walls and ground were covered with splattered blood.
Seeing this scene that resembled a slaughterhouse, Ed's lips twitched, and he forced himself to clap his hands and said:
"Well done."
At the same time, Muller's title and health bar disappeared from in front of all players, and were replaced by a new system notification.
[Target Muller Rosalind has been contained. Emergency mission: " No Return " has ended. Rewards will be calculated within five minutes.]
"Yay!"
Cheers echoed through the cavern. Silvis, watching the bloodthirsty warriors, silently drew his longsword and bowed respectfully to Willow and Ed.
"Thank you both for rescuing me. My name is Silvis, Knight of Conquest from the Eternal Domain. May I ask who you are?"
"I am Ed, the 'Bishop' of the Second Holy See, and this is the Willow, my colleague."
"We received requests for help from these explorers, so we rushed to their aid as quickly as possible."
Ed introduced himself to the old knight with a smile.
The old knight looked at the man and the lich before him, nodded, and said:
"You are very strong. Without you, I would be dead by now."
As he was saying this, Silvis suddenly noticed a long, worm-like creature emerging from a hollow in a large tree that had appeared out of nowhere at the edge of the battlefield.
The thing landed on the ground, twisted twice, and its surface instantly tore open, from which emerged a Tree Worship Church warrior.
He waved his hands and shouted:
"All eyes are on me! Look at me! I got five gold coins! Who can still call me a slacker?!"
The man wandered around in the distance, but was soon pinned to the ground and given a good beating by several other soldiers.
Silvis managed to catch a glimpse of the man's face through the gaps in the crowd, then turned to Ed and asked:
"These young soldiers... can they be resurrected?"
You finally asked! Otherwise, I would have had Willow act as a shill.
Ed exhaled and said:
"Yes, these are Elite Warrior of the Second Holy See, who can be resurrected under certain conditions."
The old knight nodded thoughtfully upon hearing this.
"So that's how it is. No wonder these young people were so bold when they followed me to fight the monster. I thought only the Eternal Domain possessed such abilities..."
The sedan chair was carried by people, and after the other party said a few kind words, Ed naturally returned the compliments in kind.
"It can't compare to the Eternal Domain. I was fortunate enough to meet an Eternal Domain knight Xilǐ'er Cyril before, and I witnessed his resurrection process up close. That resurrection process, which is unstoppable for anyone below the High Tier, is simply beyond our reach..."
