Chapter 178 The Power of the Soul Attack!
Alan was floored. He knew exactly why Zoe's old servant in green had changed so drastically.
This was Divine Blessing!
It was like the gods' blessing but probably even more powerful.
With the God of the Undead in Stellaria, the strength of the Divine Blessing was off the charts, like a local deity had descended. The power was beyond measure.
A loud bang shook the sky and earth.
In mid-air, the once-dead Zoe slowly opened her eyes. They were pitch black, like black holes.
Seeing those eyes, Alan frowned.
James walked over. He asked, "Alan, what's up with this chick? She looks kinda off. And we haven't even picked up the NPC's loot yet. What do we do now that she's back?"
"What do we do?" Alan's mouth twitched. He replied, "She's got the power of the God of the Undead now. We should call her the Messenger of the God of the Undead, or just Divine Messenger."
Zoe's pitch-black eyes locked onto Alan, a strange smile on her face.
Zoe remarked, "You know about the Divine Messenger. Impressive. It's an honor to die at the hands of the great God of the Undead's messenger!"
With that, Zoe raised her hand and whispered, "Soul Imprisonment!"
Alan felt his body tighten, unable to move.
The Purification Amulet reduced control by ninety percent, but Alan still felt the terrifying power of the imprisonment.
After Alan was trapped, Zoe reached out, and a gray-white energy hand appeared on Alan's chest, passing through instantly.
[-198547!]
A huge, terrifying damage number appeared above Alan's head.
As soon as this number showed up, Zoe raised her other hand.
Another gray-white energy hand appeared, passing through Alan's body.
[-198656!]
Another massive damage number popped up.
Zoe commanded, "Soul Tear!"
Zoe's two hands tore to the sides, and Alan felt a heart-wrenching pain, like his soul was being ripped apart.
[-596858!]
Another huge damage number appeared above Alan's head.
This combo took over six hundred thousand of Alan's health points.
The total damage was over nine hundred thousand, but Alan had the Bloodthirsty Dragon Armor's damage recovery and his own healing ability.
So he didn't lose much blood.
But he originally only had one-third of his health left, and now losing over six hundred thousand was a big hit.
However, the Soul Tear only took 0.5 seconds, and Alan still hadn't broken free from the Soul Imprisonment.
Zoe commanded next, "Soul Stripping!"
Zoe raised her hand again, a gray-white light appearing in her palm.
The light instantly hit Alan's forehead, causing another heart-wrenching pain.
The damage to the soul was insane.
Even with Alan's strong endurance, it was extremely painful.
James shouted, "Bear Elbow Strike!"
James didn't just stand there.
When Alan was trapped, he had already made his move.
But his speed was much slower than Zoe's.
By the time Zoe's second skill hit Alan, he had just reached her.
But it wasn't too late.
As soon as Alan broke free from the Soul Imprisonment, he unleashed his feather arrows without hesitation.
The arrows swarmed Zoe.
Nine bone shields appeared around her, spinning to block Alan's attacks.
The old servant yelled, "Soul Wail!"
Just as Alan attacked, the old servant in green launched his own assault.
Alan narrowed his eyes. Both of them had the power of the God of the Undead.
This was odd.
The God of the Undead's revival was a recent event.
Zoe and the old servant in green couldn't be the ultimate followers of the God of the Undead.
Why did they both get this power at the same time?
What were they hiding, or was the God of the Undead targeting him?
Alan leaned towards the former, thinking the God of the Undead was helping them for some reason.
But that didn't matter now.
Receiving the power of the gods was different from an ordinary blessing.
Especially since Zoe and the old servant in green weren't players; they were boss-level characters.
If he could kill them, he'd definitely get some unexpected rewards.
Alan hypothesized, 'Based on what I know from my past life, in their current state, if I killed them, they'd at least drop special equipment or items, maybe even divine blessings.'
Thinking this, Alan used the Ice Wing to create some distance.
At the same time, he took a large health recovery potion.
This was the first time Alan used a health potion in battle.
Undead attribute attacks had too many targeted skills.
Dodging was almost impossible.
The old servant cast, "Divine Blessing, Undying Body!"
The old servant in green's pitch-black eyes showed a hint of mockery.
He charged at Alan.
The old servant claimed, "Ice King, today, you will die. With the Undying Body, I can stay absolutely immortal for half an hour!"
Hearing this, Alan was a bit surprised.
Alan replied, "Really? That's great!!"
He fired five arrows at once, over two hundred arrows per second.
He could stack over six hundred health points per second. In a minute, that was over thirty thousand, in ten minutes, over three hundred thousand.
If the old servant in green could stay immortal for thirty minutes, Alan could stack over a million health points on him.
This was awesome.
The old servant in green was practically doing him a favor.
The old servant scoffed, "Damn, what kind of attack is this, why does it feel so good!"
James took a hit from one of Zoe's skills, his body trembling in pain.
James complained, "Damn it, I set the pain to ten percent, and it still hurts this much."
Alan smiled because it hurt; after all, it was an attack on the soul.
Although Alan noticed James, he didn't stop his actions.
High damage and terrifying lifesteal quickly filled Alan's health bar.
The old servant curs"Ice King, you're not even human!"
Seeing Alan's health bar fill up, the old servant in green's eyes were bloodshot, cracks appearing in his pitch-black eyes.
"I am human, but you are not. You are an undead monster who sold your soul and body!" Alan retorted, his voice firm with resolve.
