Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest.

Chapter 36: Heritage and Crown (Please read!)
--boom.

A low explosion sounded, accompanied by fragments of golden light, spreading in the air.

As "Judgment" was fired, a huge black hole suddenly appeared in the chest of "Undying Knight" Grivil.

Wisps of dark mist, like fog, drifted out from the cave entrance, and an indescribable rustling sound came out from it.

The damage value caused by this attack appeared in front of Luo Xiu.

[Use "Judgment Shot" to attack "Undead Knight" Grievel]

【Hit the vital point! 】

[Causes 62 points of "Holy Light" attribute basic damage]

[Attack on the vital point, causing 100 points of actual damage! ]

【…】

A damage amount of up to 100 points is already the upper limit of the damage of this grey, crude quality "Judgment" musket.

And with this last attack, the health of the "Immortal Knight" Grieville was completely reduced to zero.

With his vitality exhausted, Grieville was no longer able to maintain the weight of the long sword in his hand.

The long sword fell heavily to the ground, and the blade slanted into the ground.

The cracks in Grieville's armor were spreading at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The broken pieces of armor fell to the ground one by one.

And the body made up of spirituality began to continuously disperse out of the rift at the moment of Grieville's death.

"Homeland... King Isol... Homeland..."

A muddy voice came out intermittently from under the knight's visor, which had not yet been peeled off.

But the voice gradually became fainter, which symbolized that the "Immortal Knight" Grieville was truly approaching his end.

……

When Greville's spirituality completely dissipated.

The armor, which had already been in tatters, finally shattered completely due to the loss of support and collapsed into a pile of small armor mounds.

The long sword left by Grieville was now inserted diagonally in the middle of the armored mound.

The completely rusted sword turned into the tomb of the knights who guarded their homeland in the name of "immortality".

It's a pity that this knife is not an extraordinary weapon, it is just an ordinary weapon, but it was assimilated by "Greville" through his spiritual power and became a part of his body.

With Grieville's death, the knife lost all its extraordinary powers and returned to its original appearance.

Therefore, Luo Xiu did not plan to take the knife away.

He decided to let this knife become the last symbol of "Greville"'s existence in the world.

……

When the "Immortal Knight" Grieville really died, a prompt popped up in front of Luo Xiu, indicating that the [Limited Time Mission] was completed.

[Completed the limited-time mission: Undead Guardian (difficult difficulty)]

[You have granted the "Immortal Knight" Grievel true rest.]

[The task is being settled...]

[Completion rewards: Basic experience +3300, Greville's legacy...]

……

I'm coming……

Luo Xiu was not in a hurry to click on the settlement of "legacy", but walked to Index's side.

At this moment, Index was still in a daze and did not come back to her senses for a long time.

Before Index could react, Luo Xiu's right hand had already touched her soft silver-gray hair and rubbed it vigorously several times.

"Um……?"

Index looked stunned.

Of course she didn't know why Luo Xiu did this.

In fact, for Luo Xiu, his purpose was quite simple—

Index is the luckiest member of the current team!

Luo Xiu's luck value is as high as 1 point, and Fenrir's luck value is as high as 4 points.

——And Index’s luck value is as high as 12 points!
This is just like when Luo Xiu played the second game in his previous life and drew cards, he had to sacrifice ten years of his roommate's life...

——This is all necessary metaphysics!
...After he was satisfied with the analysis of Index, Luo Xiu rubbed his hands and clicked on the settlement of "Greville's Legacy" in his mind.

[“Greville’s Legacy” is being settled…]

[In the battle with the "Immortal Knight" Grievel, you learned the technique of "Hunting Steps".]

[Acquire the skill "Hunting Pace (Ancient Heritage, lv.1)"]

[Hunting Steps (Ancient Heritage, lv.1): Performs a small-scale flash displacement and applies "weak fear" within a certain range centered on itself. Can be used while being controlled.]

【…】

[In the battle with the "Immortal Knight" Grieville, you realized the essence of instantaneous combat.]

[Acquire the expertise "Battlefield Raider (Rare)"]

[Battlefield Raider (Rare): After using displacement or flash skills, the damage of the next attack is increased to 150%. This attack ignores defense reduction and the damage value is calculated separately from other bonus intervals.]

【…】

“Oh my god…” Luo Xiu’s eyes lit up.

"This wave... is a huge explosion!"

He obtained a total of one "ancient heritage" skill and one "rare" quality specialty, and both of these skills and specialties are quite practical!
[Hunting Pace] can give the ability to flash, which is the only skill that Luo Xiu currently has that has a "displacement" effect.

As for a "non-combat" squishy character like Luo Xiu, the improvement that "Hunting Pace" can provide is quite significant, whether it is chasing or saving lives.

[Battlefield Raider] is even simpler and more brutal, directly increasing the first attack after displacement to 1.5 times. This allows Luo Xiu to deal quite explosive damage even in the "shallow" period of the second and third levels!
……

While Luo Xiu was still admiring his new skills and expertise, Index beside him couldn't help but ask:

"My Lord, please forgive me for my presumptuous behavior..."

"What was that just now?"

"..."

Hearing this, Luo Xiu understood that what Index was asking about was the "Holy Abyss Descent" that he had used just now.

"That is holy light, Intis." Luo Xiu replied with a smile.

"Holy Light..." Intis was stunned, "Is that really... Holy Light?"

"Of course, don't doubt it." Luo Xiu shook his head and said, "There are many kinds of 'holy light'..."

“…The black holy light is also holy light.”

"..."

Index was stunned again.

The overly shocking information was constantly impacting his cognition.

“Black holy light…black…holy light?”

Index murmured, her brows furrowed, as if she was thinking hard about something.

……

After defeating the "Immortal Knight" Grieville, Luo Xiu prepared to leave this seal.

He opened his senses and explored, and found only a coffin deeper in the cave. That should be the birthplace of the "Immortal Knight" Grieville.

Other than that, there isn't much else to explore here.

Just as Luo Xiu turned around and prepared to leave the mausoleum.

A faint light suddenly flashed on the hill formed by Grieville's broken armor.

Although it was only a moment, Luo Xiu still noticed this unusual moment.

He walked towards the mound of armor and gently brushed away the broken armor pieces one by one.

Finally, after removing half of the nail plate, Luo Xiu found the source of the flickering light.

It was a broken but not rusted piece of the crown.

As Luo Xiu picked up the fragment, a new prompt popped up on the panel in front of him.

[You have obtained: Fragment of King Isol’s Crown (1/4)]

Luo Xiu was stunned for a moment, then he quickly reacted.

He had already recalled the name that Greville had been whispering during the previous battle with Greville...

——King Iseult!
This is King Iseult's crown!
