Beating Instances through Words Left by the Dead

Chapter 977: Chapter 410: The Belated Final Battle_3

But under the blessing of divine miracles, his will reached 50. Holding the Light of Steadfastness, he could easily break free from the illusion techniques.

「Item Skill: Fearless」

「Skill Description: When equipped with the Light of Steadfastness, will attribute increases by 30%, and resistance to spiritual abilities grows by 25%. When your will exceeds 50 points, using the Light of Steadfastness will feel weightless.」

Facing Han’er wielding a heavy hammer, Thompson reversed his grip on the dagger, raised the Soul Light Bible with both hands, using it like a shield in front of him.

A mere hollow wooden hammer, relying on the magic of the Soul Light Bible and his awakened extraordinary power, was enough to withstand Han’er’s soft and weak attack.

Wait, why does the sound of the hammer swinging through the air seem off?

This was Thompson’s last thought before his death.

The Light of Steadfastness was weightless in Han’er’s hands, but when it struck others, it certainly wasn’t without weight.

With a hammerhead weighing over two hundred kilograms, the force of its mighty swing was terrifying, easily shattering the shield formed by the Soul Light Bible and continuing its momentum, striking Thompson’s chest.

Thompson’s body collapsed under the impact of the giant force, exploding into a shower of blood, splattering all over the ground.

Han’er, just like Thompson earlier, offered a brief prayer over the bloodstains on the ground.

”Thank you for letting me witness that illusion, giving me the chance to give that guy the finger.”

In the ritual node, the followers’ minds had been eroded by the ceremony, and after Thompson’s death, no one in the node obstructed Han’er.

He took one last look at the kneeling followers around him, shouldered the Light of Steadfastness again, and headed for the Spirit Medicine Cathedral.

Meanwhile, in the central area of Sirena.

Simmons’ Forest Sect was located here.

The Forest Sect, with doctrines close to nature, had a unique legacy in cultivating plants, harvesting, and hunting.

This knowledge was especially practical in sparsely populated Sirena; by numbers alone, the Forest Sect was undoubtedly the largest sect in Sirena right now.

Unlike Han’er, Simmons deeply cherished the glory of the era of divine miracles, meticulously completing the tasks assigned by White Wolf and Wick.

He summoned all followers, regardless of age or gender, to gather around the Forest Cathedral, instructing them to join the divine guidance ritual.

Most followers of the Forest Sect were gravekeepers of the Royal Tomb, whose health was generally poor, while the area around the main node absorbed life force and the power of faith intensely.

Not long after the ritual began, followers started to wail.

Simmons couldn’t be bothered to look at their reactions; he sat alone in the cathedral hall, immersed in White Wolf’s revitalized body for him.

Transcendence, only by recovering transcendence, could he escape aging and continue to maintain this body.

So, to welcome the divine miracle, followers of the Forest Sect, give your utmost devotion.

While Simmons fantasized about the return of the era of miracles, wondering if he could once again evoke the miracle of eternal life under White Wolf’s guidance, he suddenly felt something missing.

He frowned and thought for a moment, realizing what was missing—the screams.

The followers’ screams had vanished!

”Damn it, those guys didn’t die off so quickly, right?”

A layer of cold sweat instantly appeared on his forehead. The ritual had just begun, and this node had already failed to provide energy. What if, because of him, the divine guidance failed?

He stood up from the Archbishop’s seat and ran out of the cathedral, finding the followers who had been praying in a kneeling posture now sprawled all over the ground.

They were breathing evenly, some even snoring, as if they were asleep.

”Get up! All of you get up! How can you sleep at such an important time!”

”What’s important?” A cold question emerged behind Simmons.

Simmons turned around to find a man and a woman standing behind him.

He instinctively said, ”Important in guiding and witnessing divine miracles!”

Wu Chang asked, ”You want to witness divine miracles?”

Simmons replied, ”Of course I want to!”

Wu Chang made a gesture, and the ground in front of Simmons suddenly turned into a water surface, shocking Simmons so much he couldn’t close his mouth.

”What is this?”

”A divine miracle. Go over and take a look,” Wu Chang said.

Simmons approached the water surface, discovering something moving underwater. Before he could see clearly, he felt his body sink, pulled into the water.

Wu Chang snorted coldly and put away the Blind Abyss.

Within the Blind Abyss, those not strong in will would hear whispers in the darkness, mentally collapse, and descend into endless madness.

Now, isn’t this a kind of divine miracle?

Since Simmons wanted divine miracles, let him have his fill.

Wu Chang and Erin did not immediately go to the central node to find White Wolf.

Unlike Han’er, Erin couldn’t let the followers die from the divine guidance ritual, so before heading to the central node, they first had to neutralize the six ritual nodes in the central area.

The Forest Cathedral was the last place.

Breaking the divine guidance ritual was now a piece of cake for Wu Chang, while neutralizing the followers’ abnormal status was quite easy for Erin too.

The tricky part was, they promised Han’er not to reveal miracles in front of the followers.

To avoid showing miracles and sowing the seeds of extraordinary revival, Wu Chang and Erin had to act quickly.

They needed to knock out all the followers the moment they lifted their abnormal status to prevent them from noticing their presence.

Breaking the divine guidance ritual couldn’t be done through energy-condensed runes to directly destroy all rituals, but rather by silently shattering the node core.

This method led Simmons to mistakenly believe that all followers had already died.

The Midnight Graveyard Dungeon, before the decline of transcendence, was merely a B-Level dungeon. Without the Miracle Moon and after enduring this decline, the transcendents here had grown notably weaker.

Wu Chang originally couldn’t be bothered with these transcendents and merely knocked out the guarding transcendents while disrupting other ritual nodes.

Simmons’ issue was, as an old transcendent from the era of miracles, he was too keen, and noticed the abnormality before Wu Chang could knock him out, even voicing his thoughts.

As a reward for being a strong adversary, Wu Chang sent him to witness the divine miracle he had longed for.

Scanning the Forest Cathedral, with the last ritual node neutralized, he held Erin’s hand, their figures flashed, appearing before the ruins of the Soul Light Cathedral.

Next, they would meet White Wolf.
