Global Lord: Start with Divine Favor-Chapter 70 - 24: Blood Sacrifice to the Blood God, Head Presented to the Skull Throne_3

Chapter 70: Chapter 24: Blood Sacrifice to the Blood God, Head Presented to the Skull Throne_3

This trait’s activation condition is extremely stringent, but once triggered, it becomes overwhelmingly powerful, stacking exponentially at 130%, even a Rare Level Knight can’t withstand it. After five slashes, the damage increases 3.71 times, and one slash equals the damage of four.

To counter such a powerful trait, the best approach is to focus fire with a group on the battlefield instantly.

The Divine Venerable Bloodsucker, though terrifyingly strong in attack power, lacks any defensive traits and doesn’t wear heavy armor, making them relatively fragile, a glass cannon.

Lundestadte solemnly nodded, holding his sword with both hands, guarding the stone steps of the staircase, waiting for Lin Rui and the last few Fanatics to retreat to the second floor.

As the Divine Venerable Bloodsucker roared closer, this Knight’s fine-level Knight of Light Sword erupted with brilliant golden light, enveloping the approaching Bloodsucker with a wave of sword light.

Lin Rui reached the second floor and immediately arranged the army’s defenses, saying, "The Divine Venerable Bloodsuckers are indeed strong, but as demons, their violent nature means they will charge recklessly. Holding this stairway, we can outnumber and outgun any Divine Venerable Bloodsucker that shows up, without worrying about Spiritual Energy consumption."

"Understood, Lord!" all the macho men roared in unison, vowing to vent their full fury upon these demons.

Audrey cheerfully said, "Lord, I love whack-a-mole the most."

As she spoke, she summoned Snow White again.

Gone were the short skirt and black stockings; Snow White instead wore tattered, gray hemp robes, with more ashen skin exposed through the rags, even revealing awe-inspiring magnificence through the holes.

Audrey snorted coldly and said, "You dirty men, just a few holes and you find them, clear as day."

All the muscle-bound men simultaneously turned their heads, looking down the stairs.

Audrey wrapped her arm around Lin Rui’s and asked, "Lord, which of us looks better?"

Lin Rui, with a serious face, said, "What are you talking about? I don’t understand, prepare for battle."

After estimating the time, more than twenty seconds had passed. Lin Rui frowned; it had been so long, and Lundestadte hadn’t come up, likely held back by the Divine Venerable Bloodsucker.

Below, the battle raged fiercely, the screams of the monsters shrill and hideous, and the clash of blades rang out incessantly.

Yet Lundestadte was nowhere to be seen from the staircase, only the dazzling golden light bursting below, accompanied by the sound of swords piercing flesh and blood spraying.

Though Audrey resented Lundestadte for competing for the second-in-command position, she didn’t want him to die downstairs. After all, he stayed back to cover everyone’s retreat; if he fell in battle, Audrey would feel guilty.

Two minutes had passed, and Lundestadte hadn’t appeared yet, and Lin Rui hesitated whether to go downstairs to check.

In two minutes, over a hundred Divine Venerable Bloodsuckers could have shredded the entire Hyena Tribe to pieces multiple times.

Both sides were Extraordinary with physiques around fifty points. In a minute, countless slashes and sword shadows could be made, and Lundestadte, being surrounded, faced constant sword strikes. Ordinary Divine Venerable Bloodsuckers were bearable, but those who had triggered traits and sacrificed to Terror could deal the damage of dozens with one slash. With Lundestadte’s Life Value of 1700, no matter how tough he is, he couldn’t withstand it.

While Lin Rui was hesitating, a sudden loud explosion came from downstairs, with intense light radiating out, as if a mushroom cloud had exploded below.

Three Divine Venerable Bloodsuckers were shot out of the staircase, followed by Lundestadte, covered in blood, rushing from below.

Lin Rui quickly looked at Lundestadte, his Life Value was at 25%.

It wasn’t that he had held off a hundred elite monsters for two minutes and still had 25% Life Value, but rather that he had triggered a life-saving trait!

[Bathing in Holy Light · Rare Level Trait: Faith in Flame Sun, pursuit of virtue, allows bathing in the light of redemption. Life Value +400, fixed Life Value recovery of 2% for each damage taken. When Life Value is below 50%, a 50% chance to recover 5% Life Value. If Life Value is below 5%, knock back all nearby enemies by 10 meters, instantly recover 20% Life Value, cooldown 1 hour.]

Relying on the trait to knock all nearby enemies 10 meters away, he managed to escape.

Lin Rui immediately spent 100 Spiritual Energy Value to restore 209 Life Value to him in one breath. His Life Value was successfully restored to 636 points, escaping danger.

By this time, the Divine Venerable Bloodsuckers had begun to emerge from below. All the soldiers of the Golden Pansy Domain surrounded the staircase, dealing full output, and the area near the stairs turned into a bloody mess.

The Fanatics were especially brutal in their output, smashing the emerging Divine Venerable Bloodsucker with their steel staffs, immediately cracking them wide open.

The glass cannon’s weakness was undeniably exposed at this moment. Though they have high output, their frail forms couldn’t withstand the thrashing of a group of muscle-bound men, and they were smashed to pieces as soon as they showed up.

Yet they were intensely fanatical; once engaged in battle, they lost formation, rushing towards the second floor in succession, getting smashed to death near the stairs in batches.

In terms of powerful damage, Fanatics surpass their state before sacrifice. Only after they’ve sacrificed, stacking 30% damage per slash, can they exceed the Fanatics’ damage levels. But in this environment, there was no chance for them to stack output, as they were blown away on sight.

Though occasionally a few Bloodsuckers, with quick reactions and strong willpower, broke through the staircase defenses, they were immediately constrained by Curse Spiritual Skill under Lin Rui’s control, surrounded, and beaten to death by the knights.

After battling fiercely for a long time, and encountering numerous dangers, they finally managed to successfully take down this elite demonic force.
