Chapter 465: Ode to Death

, he still had two sole missions on his hands.One was a warrior guide's battle axe, given to him on a mission to take down a level ten demonized tiger boss.Another one is the task of finding imp nests..."Lord City Master of Fiery Sun, you are too kind. Sadly, we didn't uncover the plot conspired between the Pale Cult and the Corrupted Claws." Lu Kong shook his head and said.

"Didn't you notice..." Lord Mayor of Lièyáng City sighed a little, then smiled. "The Pale Order and the Corrupted Claw are secretly colluding, their plan must be very secretive, it's impossible to have clues this quickly. Don't worry about it, Sir Lu Kǒng."

Lu Kong nodded slightly, then recounted what he had learned about the "traitor."

This caused Lord of the Blazing Sun to frown: "Traitor..."

Li Kong opened his mouth and said, “Could it be that there are traitors from the Pale Cult in each main city”

This isn't something Lu Kong just blurted out casually.

After all, there are examples.

Anklos was previously a member of the Pale Congregation. Before he was discovered, he researched the power of death within Great Wu City.

If there are also traitors like Ancos in other main cities, then the Corrupted Claw and the Pale Covenant might be able to attack the cities by working together from within and without.

Hearing this, Lord Citymaster of Lieyang shook his head: "The main city has a powerful defensive formation, only a very small number of high-level officials in the city can control the formation. There will definitely be no traitors among these high-level officials. And even if there are traitors among other members in the main city, they cannot cause much damage to the safety of the main city. In this regard, Lu Kong, you can rest assured."

Upon hearing this, Lu Kong nodded slightly, and his heart relaxed a little.

Since even the City Lord of Lièyáng has said so, the safety of the main city should be guaranteed.

That's not clear, I don't know how this traitor managed to do it.

The City Lord of Liēyáng comforted: "Sir Lùkōng, there's no need to rush. Since we couldn't find any relevant clues at this stronghold of the Pale Sect, perhaps there are other high-level strongholds of the Pale Sect. As long as they exist, they will definitely leave traces. The clues might be within those other high-level strongholds."

Hearing this, Lu Kong suddenly remembered the key fragment he had obtained before.

There are four in total. Does this correspond to the four major main cities on the novice continent of the Hunter

Is there a plaque of the Pale Covenant near Starlight City Are there plaques in the main cities of the other three races as well

If that's really the case, then Lu Kong might have to take a trip to the main city of another race.

He smiled and said, "As the Lord of Burning Sun City said, worrying won't solve anything."

The City Lord of Lielyang smiled and nodded. Then, he thought of something and asked, "By the way, Master Lu Kong, did you destroy those bloodfang werewolf corpses If there are still surviving members of the Pale Covenant, they might continue to use these corpses to create more soldiers."

Lu Kong, upon hearing this, widened his eyes in shock.

A flicker of astonishment crossed his eyes as he murmured, "...There were no corpses of Bloodfang Werewolves at that outpost."

"What!" The City Lord of Lièyáng widened his eyes in astonishment.

Hundreds of thousands of bloodfang werewolf corpses, if preserved, would definitely require a huge amount of space.

The Pale Church's stronghold was apparently the most suitable area, but it wasn't there after all.

For clues, Lu Kong thoroughly searched every building in the Pale Church's stronghold.

No body of the werewolf with fangs was found.

Originally, Lu Kong had not thought about this issue.

Only now did he realize, so many bloodfang werewolf corpses, should have been taken away by the White Fang Cult's disciples and the Rotclaw Demons together.

If it's not at the outpost, then where is it

And, with so many bodies, how were they transported

The City Lord of Lieyang suddenly turned his head and looked at He Fei on the side: "Captain He Fei, did you see how the disciples of the Pale Teaching dealt with the Bloodfang werewolf corpses"

We should ask the City Guard of Flying Star River. They arrested members of the Bloodfang Wolf Tribe, so they might know what happened.

However, to the disappointment of both Lu Kong and Lord Citymaster Lièyáng, Fei shook his head. "When we were dealing with the Bloodfang werewolf clan, we were ambushed by Corrupted Claw demons and members of the Pale Cult. We lost our fighting ability on the spot and were all knocked unconscious. We didn't see how they disposed of the Bloodfang werewolf corpses."

The atmosphere in the office became somewhat heavy for a moment.

"It seems the Pale Sect might have some methods we are still unaware of."

Lu Kong nodded slightly.

Unfortunately, they no longer have any other clues.

The only clue is an unknown key fragment in Lu Kong's hand.

If Lu Kong's guess is correct, then this key fragment might require the destruction of all three other Pale Church outposts to be obtained.

With the key fragments, perhaps we could find the real clues.

But the current problem is that the Pale Covenant's outpost in Starfall City was discovered purely by chance.

The acolytes of the Pale Order in the other three main cities are also very active and have yet to be discovered, indicating that their strongholds are similarly well-concealed.

It is difficult to find the other three bases.

After much deliberation, Lu Kong decided that the most important thing right now was to improve his own strength.

First, clear out the Pale Order stronghold and the Corrupted Claw lair. Then take care of the areas with high monster density.

There aren't many good upgrade areas left, so go investigate the other three main city areas.

He said goodbye to the City Lord of Lièyáng and Captain Fei, then Lu Kong left the office and returned to his rented villa, starting to count the spoils from the Pale Church's strongholds.

There were eleven semi-god skill stones and one semi-god skill book, unfortunately it was a necromancer's skill book, so it was useless to people like Lu Kong.

There are seven scrolls and potions in total.

The

Set "Whispers of the Soul" is a collection of seven pieces of demigod equipment. The rest are demigod individual pieces.

As for the current land and air, what's useful is a single 40-level demigod ring, which dropped from one of the 40-level Holy Spirit level death knights.

To Lu Kong's surprise, the ring was actually a set!

【Death Mist Ring (Left) (Legendary Item)] : Ring, Strength , Endurance , Damage 400%, Endurance , Normal attacks deal an additional 50% undead damage.

Equipment Requirements: Level 40, Strength Points, 1 Point of Divinity

Note: This is one of the pair of rings forged from the power gleaned by a mighty Death Monarch from the mists of death. Possessing unparalleled might, wear them and then sing praises to death.

Suit Effect (2/2): Increase damage by 1% for each enemy unit killed, lasting for 30 seconds.

This Death Mist Ring is one of the most powerful demi-artifacts Lu Kong has encountered to date.

The main effect of the suit is simply ridiculous, it increases by 1% every time a unit is killed.

If you kill 100, your damage directly increases by 100%. What if you kill 10,000 What about 100,000

If there is no limit, then wouldn't it be infinite stacking

When facing a large group of enemies, these rings are practically artifacts!

Of course, perhaps it's precisely because of this ring's power that the equipment requirements include something as divine.

This is the first time Lu Kong has encountered a semi-divine equipment that requires divinity to equip.

If one manages to gather both rings, Lu Kong might, under certain circumstances, be able to go toe-to-toe with the divine beings during advanced missions.

Just like on a battlefield, if the enemy has a large army, and they have a passive ability that multiplies their damage by a thousand or even ten thousand times, then not even a god could withstand it, right

Soon, Lu Kong calmed down.

Although it is said that way, the spirits may not necessarily give him the opportunity to stack passive effects.

People aren't stupid.a critical hit has also been significantly reduced.But, even with less than half the damage, it would still be an instant kill for even high-level boss monsters.The number of monsters in this undergro...
