When I traveled through time and became a player, I just wanted to commit suicide
Chapter 369: The Road to Becoming King (2)
Before officially challenging Star-Breaking General Ratan, Li Shanren once again returned to the Lienia area at the border.
On the western shore of this vast lake was an area called "Kalia Castle" that he had never explored.
That was the residence of the royal family of Kalia, and I heard that a member of the royal family was living there.
If you want to challenge Starshatter General Latan, it would be best to meet this member of the Kalia royal family first.
On the way to Kalia Castle, Li Shanren met a giant mountain demon blacksmith named "Iji".
They had known each other for a long time, and Li Shanren had even asked him for help in forging some things.
Unlike those ordinary troll giants with low intelligence, this troll giant blacksmith is unexpectedly wise, and his personality is very humble and approachable.
He advised Li Shanren not to go to Kalia Castle, because ever since the Kalia royal family was betrayed by the academy, that area has been blocked by some kind of magic circle, and once you step into it, you will be attacked by magic crossbows falling from the sky.
Li Shanren did not listen to the advice of the giant troll blacksmith and went to Kalia Castle alone.
On the way to the fortress, Li Shanren was indeed attacked by magic crossbows, but with Torret's speed, those crossbows were often dodged before they even landed.
The Kalia Castle is built on the mountain and its area is not too large, but it still takes more than a day to explore it.
In particular, there are many strange creatures called "finger insects" lurking in the walled city. They look like a single palm and often lie quietly on the high walls or buried deep in the soil, waiting for someone to pass by and then suddenly attack. If you don't check the surrounding situation at all times, you are very likely to be successfully attacked by them.
In addition, an adult finger beetle wears a huge gold ring inlaid with a purple gem on one of its fingers. The gem can emit a purple light wave. Once it hits the target, it will turn into an illusory purple ring that forcibly binds the target in place, preventing it from moving for at least several seconds and allowing it to be slaughtered.
Fortunately, this kind of light wave flies at a relatively slow speed, so it is easy to avoid it if you pay a little attention.
Li Shanren completed the exploration of Kalia Castle very skillfully and obtained the second legendary weapon - "Sword of Night and Fire".
This is a straight sword weapon with main intelligence and faith bonuses, which is more suitable for mages. Its combat skill is "Stance of Night and Fire", which can release a torrent of magic or intense flames through different stances.
As a legendary weapon, the magic torrent and flames it releases are extremely powerful.
During the exploration, Li Shanren defeated the magic clone of the Magic Guard Knight Loretta who left in the castle as a guard, and learned a good long-range magic from a magic scroll dropped from it - "Loretta's Longbow".
The Royal Guard Knight Loretta originally belonged to the Calia royal family, but has now left for some reason, leaving only a magical clone to perform her duties as a knight.
After passing through the entire fortress, Li Shanren came to a magic tower and met the member of the Kalia royal family who stayed in the fortress - Princess Lani of the Moon - at the top of the tower.
She is the youngest daughter of the Full Moon Queen Reinara, and once used the alias "Witch Reina". She met Li Shanren once in the ruins of Nimgefu. It was she who delivered the extremely important "Soul Summoning Bell" to Li Shanren.
After seeing Li Shanren, Lani was slightly surprised.
Before meeting Lani, Li Shanren went back to the Round Table Hall and met with the magic swordsman Roger, from whom he learned that "Lani" was very likely the mastermind of the Black Blade Night.
After meeting Lani this time, the Moon Princess admitted it very straightforwardly. She did steal some of the power of the Death Rune, made a black sword that could kill gods, and used it to kill her original body, leaving only her soul to reside in the current puppet body.
She did this perhaps to escape the control of the Golden Rule.
Li Shanren said he could do things for Lani, but the condition was to get the inverted statue in Kalia's study and enter a divine tower in the Kalia area.
The divine tower belonged to Ranie. Ranie abandoned her dead body on the top of the divine tower. On that body, there were curse marks left by the Death Rune. With the help of the curse marks, a new Great Rune could be pieced together.
This is also Li Shanren’s real purpose.
Lani doesn't care about her original body. She has abandoned everything that belongs to the Golden Law on that body. Now she belongs to the moon.
Therefore, she agreed to Li Shanren's request for cooperation and issued him the first mission, requiring him to go to the eternal city of Noklongen deep underground to steal a weapon for her that was deeply intertwined with her destiny.
Li Shanren accepted the task and met with other ministers of Lani in the magic tower, including the "half-wolf" Blaze, whom he had known before, the mountain giant blacksmith "Iggy", and a Kalia magic professor named "Servis".
Among them, the magic professor is proficient in puppetry. He can transform the souls of the dead into soul puppets that can be summoned through the soul-summoning bell. This is a good way to obtain new ashes.
However, the ashes obtained in this way seem to be slightly different from normal ashes.
Li Shanren planned to get a puppet's ashes from him and then go to the spirit master Roderica to study it.
Of course, this is a later matter.
Right now, he was mainly focused on the task that Lani had given him.
This quest line has extremely generous rewards. It can at least allow him to obtain two full-level legendary ashes, a legendary magic, and a legendary mage weapon with a main intelligence bonus.
In addition, there are many other powerful weapons, magic, forging stones, advanced cemetery lily of the valley and so on.
It can be said that once Li Shanren completes the tasks related to Lani, his upper limit of strength will see a qualitative improvement.
There is a magic elevator leading to the underground in the Nimgefu area. The half-wolf Blaze has already gone there in advance to find a way to enter the eternal city of Noklongen. Li Shanren also hurried over to meet up with him.
After the two men reunited, Blaze, who had already completed the exploration of the underground area, told Li Shanren that the Eternal City of Noklongen was located at a higher level in this area and was difficult to reach by ordinary means, so other ways of entering were needed.
Li Shanren knew very well the method to enter Noklongn.
The fate of the Kalia royal family corresponded to the stars in the sky, but now the stars were firmly fixed in the sky, unable to move, and the fate of the Kalia royal family was also locked.
It is for this reason that stargazers who observe the stars cannot glimpse the trajectory of fate from them.
The existence that blocked the movement of the stars with great power was none other than General Ratan, the Star-Smashing General, who was hailed as the strongest demigod. His title came from his experience of having challenged and smashed the falling stars alone. It was from that time that the fate of the stars was sealed.
The eternal city of Noklong believes in the night, the moon, and the stars. To find its entrance, one must defeat General Starbreaker and release the seal of the stars.
Knowing this well, Li Shanren explored the underground area and went to the Gailed area.
The Star-Breaking General Latan once fought a great battle with another demigod Valkyrie, Marennia, in the Gaileid region. After the battle, Latan was severely corroded by the scarlet corruption on the Valkyrie's body. He became unconscious and wandered on the battlefield all day long.
In order to give this insane hero a dignified ending, the Lord of Red Lion City announced a battle festival, inviting people with lofty ideals to go to Red Lion City to send Latan off together.
That is to kill Ratan, who can no longer regain consciousness, and inherit the Great Rune fragment of this demigod.
Red Lion City is a city under the jurisdiction of General Latan and can be regarded as the political center of the Gaileid region.
After arriving in the Gailed area, Li Shanren did not go to the Red Lion City immediately, but first went to the Great Dragon Feast Church which also stood in the Gailed area.
The so-called "Dragon Feast" is a ritual of gaining the power of the dragon by swallowing the dragon's heart.
In the Nimgefu area, there is a small Dragon Feast Church, from which one can only obtain partial power. The power obtained from the Great Dragon Feast Church is the most complete.
But performing the Dragon Feast ceremony is not without cost.
Rumor has it that anyone who desires the power of a dragon will eventually become a dragon.
Of the several flying dragons that Li Shanren has killed so far, except for the mother dragon Guior, the rest of the flying dragon Yakir, the pyroxene dragon Smarag, the earth dragon, etc., are all dragons transformed from humans.
Li Shanren even suspected that the small flying dragon that the former Lord of Nimgefu, "Limb Reattachment" Greg, used to attach a dragon head to himself was also transformed from a person who performed the Dragon Feast ceremony.
Before this, Li Shanren had never performed the Dragon Feast Ceremony because he was afraid that he would irreversibly turn into that inhuman creature.
However, now that he had truly mastered the power of the two Great Rune fragments, he no longer had to worry about this.
Li Shanren went through the dragon feasting ceremony in the Great Dragon Feasting Church and mastered powerful dragon feasting prayer techniques such as Guior's roar, Yakir's flame, and Smarag's pyroxene breath.
The power of the dragon blood really gathered and eroded his body, gradually transforming his body and turning him from a human into a dragon.
In principle, this transformation is irreversible.
But now the principle is in Li Shanren's hands.
He used the "fusion" power of the center of gravity Great Rune and the "birth" power of another Great Rune to integrate the dragon blood into his body in an implicit form.
Under normal circumstances, he is still a human being, but he can activate the dragon blood in his body and transform into a dragon-man form.
During the Dragon Man Form, the injuries and consumption of the previous battle will be fully recovered, the release consumption of various Dragon Feast Prayers will be greatly reduced, the power of Dragon Feast Prayers will be increased by 15%, all attributes will be increased by 15 points, and the damage reduction rate against fire and magic will be increased to 30%.
Due to the fusion of the power of the pyroxene dragon Smarag, in the dragon form, he can release pyroxene magic with his bare hands.
However, in this form, he cannot wear any protective gear or amulets. After releasing this form, he will recover in a naked state.
He can maintain this form indefinitely, but if he does so for too long, he may irreversibly change from a human to a dragon. He can only go to the Full Moon Queen to use the magic of "rebirth" to change back, which is rather troublesome.
Therefore, unless necessary, it is best to maintain the human form.
Although it lacks the help of the amulet, there is no doubt that the dragon man form is still a very powerful form. The fact that it can recover all injuries and consumption during the activation period is enough to be used as a second life.
Moreover, as Li Shanren further performs the Dragon Feast ritual and integrates the power of more dragons, this form still has a lot of room for growth.
After making preparations, Li Shanren went to the Red Lion City located at the southernmost tip of the Gaileid region to participate in the battle festival initiated by the city lord Jerryan.
There are many people participating in this battle festival. In addition to the city lord Jerry who will take part in the battle personally, there are also seven participants of different identities, including "Half-Wolf" Blaze, "Warrior Pot" Alexander, "Fearless" Lionel, and "Big Horn" Telages, who have received the news.
After everyone gathered, the city lord Jerryan announced the start of the festival and led everyone to the battlefield where Latan was wandering.
Star-shattering General Latan is worthy of being hailed as the "strongest demigod". Even though his mind is already blurred and his combat power is only one tenth of what it once was, he still shows a tenacious will to fight.
He was nearly ten meters tall, holding two enormous star-breaking swords in his hands, and riding a skinny pony that had accompanied him throughout his growth and battles. Even though his legs had been cut off, he was still very agile on the battlefield.
Latan instinctively used gravity magic, either stirring up gravity storms or using gravity to attract people around him to him, then launching a terrifying slash with gravity explosions, or flying forward like a ghost, leaving behind a trail of purple gravity trails.
In the face of his powerful strength, even though everyone participating in the festival had their own extraordinary qualities, they were still beaten back step by step and suppressed to the point where they could not raise their heads.
Only Li Shanren can rely on Torret's speed and use magic to deal with him.
In this battlefield, it is impossible to summon soul ashes, but Torrett can be called upon to assist, allowing Li Shanren to barely maintain a relatively safe distance from Latan.
As time went by, no matter how powerful Latan was, he gradually became exhausted under the siege of the crowd.
Realizing that he was about to die, Latan used gravity magic to rush into the sky, flew high into the sky, and then turned into a meteor and fell.
The terrible crash created a deep hole in the center of the battlefield. Everyone was seriously injured by this blow, so some combatants left the battlefield. Only the city lord Jerryan, the warrior Hu, and the half-wolf Blaze still refused to retreat.
Li Shanren quickly recovered from his injuries with the help of the Holy Grail Bottle, but then they faced the even more violent General Ratan.
General Starshatter perfectly combines melee combat with gravity magic. Every time he swings his two Starshatter swords, they will stir up a gravity storm. He is surrounded by four extremely powerful gravity rock balls, which will automatically fly out and violently crash into the opponent once they get close to the enemy.
Under such a violent attack, the three people except Li Shanren were quickly defeated.
Li Shanren, who was facing General Shattering Star alone, felt a sudden increase in pressure. After everyone else withdrew from the battlefield, he transformed into a dragon man and used it to confront General Shattering Star head-on.
In the battle with General Shattering Star, Li Shanren gradually comprehended the fighting method that combined melee combat with magic.
Finally, he spewed out magical pyroxene dragon flames, and condensed several broom stars with his hands, delivering the final blow to the general.
