Beating Instances through Words Left by the Dead

Chapter 108: Chapter 105: Saint’s Legacy Mask and Dungeon Clear (Part 2)

Among the Items he currently possessed, only these two were worthy of being reforged with the flames in his hand.

Just a glance, and he knew which one was more suitable.

Wu Chang applied the flame in his hand to the Shadow-Facing Face.

The flame enveloped the Shadow-Facing Face, slowly fusing with it.

「Detected the presence of a unique consciousness within the Holy Light Attribute special item being fused. Continuing fusion will permanently occupy one Shadow slot. Do you wish to terminate fusion?」

This was exactly what he wanted.

”Continue fusion.”

After choosing to erase the shadow record of Liu Shan, the white area of the black-and-white Shadow-Facing Face was filled with sacred runes, and the mask’s edges were delicately patterned, exuding an aura of inviolability.

The fusion lasted nearly ten minutes.

Ten minutes later, the reforging was complete.

「Item Name: Saint’s Legacy Mask」

「Item Description: A mask recording the projection of the Great Saint and the Artificial Holy Statue. Its creation was blessed by light. Wearing this mask, one is seen as an envoy of the Saint walking on the ground, gaining great favor from the Holy Light Faction.」

「Artifact Level: B (Can grow).」

「Item Skills: Rebirth of True Self.」

「Skill Description: Abbreviated.」

「Item Skills: Immortal Transformation.」

「Skill Description: Abbreviated.」

The original two skills of the Shadow-Facing Face remained unchanged, with only the Shadow skill evolving from one to two skills.

「Item Skills: Shadow.」

「Skill Description: The Face (Black) can record the appearance of a target and summon that appearance for battle support. If the shadow target level ≤ 17, its combat power can be perfectly replicated; if greater than 17, the combat power will fluctuate based on the user’s level and Energy Attribute. If the shadow is destroyed, it can be resummoned after 24 hours.」

The maximum level for Shadow recording targets increased from 15 to 17, which is a significant enhancement, but compared to the additional skill, it can only be considered a minor gain.

「Item Skills: Saintess Projection.」

「Skill Description: Due to certain special reasons, Saintess Erin fused with the Shadow Mask, becoming a permanent resident Artifact Spirit and part of the Item, enjoying all True Self privileges. You can summon Erin anytime, anywhere to join battles, and her level and Attributes will change based on the Item user’s level and Attributes.」

Under the Saintess Projection skill, Erin’s skill panel was attached.

Erin

Race: God

Level: 10

Life: 21

Power: 11

Agility: 10

Endurance: 10

Energy: 35

Inspiration: 83

Will: 92

Status: Artificial God (Partial)

Status Description: Erin possesses incomplete Holy Marks, lacking the most crucial area. Completing the Holy Mark will allow ascension to Powerful Angels.

Skills: Master of Light Magic.

Skill Description: As a Saintess, Erin received formal magic training from childhood. Due to the presence of Holy Marks within her, she can easily grasp any Light Magic. Her mercy and compassion prevent her from actively using offensive Light Magic.

Talent: Ocean Race Transformation (Inactive), True Divine Body (Partial).

Talent Name: True Divine Body (Partial)

Talent Description: Erin can temporarily use the True Divine Body through the manipulation of the Holy Marks, utilizing the power that belongs to Gods. Duration: (Energy + Inspiration + Will) /10 seconds. Cooldown: 15 days.

Wu Chang looked at Erin’s Attribute Panel, pinching himself twice to confirm it wasn’t an illusion.

He truly integrated Erin into the Shadow Mask.

Not to mention that Erin had privileges equal to his True Self, could be considered a Player by the system, and could use his carry space, significantly enriching his tactics.

Just the growth potential and Attribute panel of Erin alone were terrifyingly strong.

Erin’s Attributes and Level changed with his own, having the same level and Total Attribute Points, with the only difference being Attribute Allocation leaning towards an Energy Specialization Type, where her Will and Inspiration values were inverted compared to his.

The only difference is that Erin is an independent individual and can only replicate his basic Attribute Panel, missing out on the bonuses from being a Master of Breaking the Game.

Even so, Erin is very powerful as a Player.

With 35 points in Energy and as a Master of Light Magic, all Magic System Players of the same Level paled in comparison to her.

Moreover, Erin has a super strong trump card in transforming into a God.

It is worth noting that previously, when Jermaine attempted to forcibly use the Holy Marks and unleash Divine Power, even Wu Chang’s 140 points in Power with his True Self would feel threatened.

If Erin truly used Divine Transformation, few in the Desolate Realm could withstand her outburst.

The only drawback is that Wu Chang didn’t put the Proof of Arrogance into the Fallen Holy Statue, leading to an incomplete Holy Mark.

But there was nothing to be done; even if he could foresee things developing to this point, he wouldn’t dare to bet on it.

Not to mention the Great Saint Mother watching from the sidelines, even Jermaine transformed into an Artificial God was beyond his handling.

After integrating Erin and transforming the Shadow-Facing Face into the Saint’s Legacy Mask, it was imbued with divine aura, appearing nobler just from its appearance.

The Mortal Poison, which was taken out together earlier, sensed the divine aura and became excited, conveying a message to Wu Chang that it wanted to ”consume” it.

”Consume, consume, you want to eat everything. Is this something you deserve? This is what I’ll be consuming later! Get lost!”

The Mortal Poison was left with no choice but to reluctantly look at the Fallen Holy Statue after failing to consume the Saint’s Legacy Mask.

”This, however, can be given to you to consume.”

Wu Chang moved the Mortal Poison closer to the Fallen Holy Statue, and the massive statue was entirely absorbed into the pendant.

「Absorbed divine remnants, accumulating Energy Points: 2.」

As everything stabilized, the Count’s Manor beneath his feet began to collapse.

Or rather, the Inner World on the entire Briff Island began collapsing at that moment.

Since the Peaceful Town wasn’t out of control, the Mortal Poison only absorbed the most basic instance-clearing Energy.

「Cleared C-Level instance, accumulating Energy Points: 0.5.」

「Current accumulated energy: 4/10.」

As Wu Chang returned the Mortal Poison to his carry space, system information appeared before his eyes.

「Due to early completion of the Breakthrough in the instance, it is automatically considered that the Player has completed Main Quest One: Successfully survive for thirty days in the town.」

「Player has completed Main Quest Two: Investigate the missing Count and find the truth.」

「Player has completed the Hidden-sub Quest: Find the missing Saintess or recover the Holy Marks.」

「With all main quests completed, all Players will be forcibly teleported from the instance Plane.」

The Inner World and Outer World inherently affected each other, and the disappearance of the Inner World caused a great tremor on Briff Island.

In the tremor, the lighthouse collapsed, the Great Cathedral crumbled, the Count’s Manor turned to ruins...

Watching the townsfolk, emerging from their homes due to the anomalies, trembling and kneeling to pray for divine protection, Wu Chang chose to leave the instance Plane.
