God-level Hero

Chapter 1318 - 1226: Earning a Banshee in Rhythm?

The strongest fortresses are usually breached from the inside, and once even the inside couldn’t be broken through, the Abyss Army’s assault finally ran out of steam. After all, maintaining such a large-scale teleport for a long time isn’t an easy thing for Hell either.

Beijing Time 8:30, as大量 Flame Demon retreated back into the Hell Gate, one Hell Gate after another closed in succession, and the Hell Army withdrew like the receding tide.

...

At this moment, all the players in the city who received the System Prompt burst out in victorious cheers! And Da Fei, who had killed the Revenge Lord, also let out a long breath when he saw the gear drop into his inventory. He hadn’t expected this Revenge Lord to actually be just an avatar—and it even came with an achievement! No wonder he was so strong!

Exactly. In the Hell Abyss, anything that carries the title "Lord" is without a doubt a God-level creature! So dropping a Divine Artifact is only natural!

Overjoyed, Da Fei began checking the equipment attributes. A Divine Artifact Cloak! And it’s a growth-type Divine Artifact too. This is the second growth-type Divine Artifact Da Fei has obtained after defeating Dragon Mother Cindigosa and getting the Dragon Eye Ring, and it even lets you pick the attribute yourself.

Thinking about it, Da Fei’s cloak had always been that A‑class Speed Cloak that the American SAWSAW dropped back in the National War days. It boosts base Attack Speed by 10%. Very practical, sure, but the tier was really too low. It was time for a change.

And coincidentally, this Revenge Cloak can reflect Flame Damage, which just happens to form an Anti-injury Alliance together with Flame Shield and Thorny Belt! As for the loss of speed from ditching the Speed Cloak—decision made, the growth direction of the Divine Artifact Cloak will be Attack Speed!

——System Prompt: You have selected Attack Speed as the growth direction of "Flame Curse Cloak of the Revenge Lord." Your current level is 49, you gain All Troops Attack Speed +4.9!

4.9 speed! That already far surpasses the 10% base boost effect of the Speed Cloak. Da Fei was quite pleased with this attribute. If he’d chosen some other Attack or Defense attribute, it’d probably be +49 Attack or 49 Defense. But this is exactly what makes the Attack Speed attribute so rare and precious. For most units with a base Attack Speed of 10, this is equivalent to a 50% increase in attack speed—half an extra strike per round. Its importance speaks for itself.

As for the other S‑class Flame Hammer, there’s nothing particularly flashy about it. It’s got both Attack and Defense, and it’s basically propped up to S‑class purely by its sky‑high stats. He can consider selling it, or just make do with using it himself. As for the A‑class cloak he just took off, Da Fei casually tossed it onto Anlicia. She’s practically become Da Fei’s old-clothes wardrobe at this point.

At this time, amid the cheers echoing throughout the city, the group of South Korean experts beside Da Fei all came up to shake his hand: "Awesome! Thank you, Mr. Da Fei, for your guidance!"

Da Fei laughed heartily: "I should be the one thanking everyone for the help. Without your clutch entangling at that critical moment, who knows if the BOSS would have gotten away!"

Li Yinzhu smiled and said, "Oppa, I just got the news: right now all regions in the world are talking about developing airships. The game might skip straight from the Age of Sail to the Age of Aviation. I’ve been entrusted by reporters from my country to interview Oppa—how does Oppa feel about that?"

Da Fei didn’t know whether to laugh or cry: "Age of Aviation? Can the value of the cargo you haul even earn back the fuel you burn?"

Li Yinzhu laughed: "Of course it’s for smashing BOSSes. Didn’t Oppa already demonstrate it?"

Da Fei chuckled: "You saw it too. If it weren’t for your country’s experts helping just now, we might not have even hit the BOSS! So my take is, everyone can just treat it as watching a circus stunt. Actually imitating it yourselves is way too much of a money sink, right?"

Li Yinzhu laughed: "The more Oppa says that, the more everyone will want to develop it. At the very least, high-altitude bombing works."

Da Fei shook his head with a smile: "Then just do what your resources allow. Anyway, only two factions can even get their hands on airships. The time requirement for reputation and the Gold Coin cost are both extremely high—try not to affect your own development."

Li Yinzhu laughed: "It’s fine. Large guild will just open dedicated alts to rush reputation. It won’t hold anything back."

Da Fei laughed and said, "That leaves me nothing more to say. All right, I’ll be waiting for the arrival of the Great Aviation Era!"

Damn! Great aviation my ass! In that instant, Da Fei suddenly felt the pressure of entering the National War Zone. After all, he’d taken on a hundred-billion debt precisely to rely on his airship advantage to snatch the Goddess’ Tears from the Hell Race in the New World. If later every country in the world has a bunch of players flying around in the sky, how much of an edge would he still have? Painful!

Li Yinzhu laughed and said, "Okay, I know Oppa’s busy now! We’re going back to our battlefield. Bye, Oppa!"

Da Fei laughed and said, "Take care, see you!"

Sure enough, Da Fei’s friend messages were flashing nonstop. It was Bloodrose Qiqi and Bu Feiyan, and as expected, they were asking about the airship.

Bloodrose Qiqi asked, "Brother Fei, even though our Guild also doesn’t think we should focus on developing airships, all the countries in the world, especially Vietnam in the Southeast Asia New Zone that’s still power-leveling with no pressure to transform, have already clearly shown the intention of going all-in on airship development. Our China Region can only follow, right?"

Da Fei felt an indescribable headache: "How did the Soviet Union collapse? By not keeping its feet on the ground and overplaying the big space era. If they’re willing to play, let them play. As for airship manufacturing, just directly ask Moon God Night. She’s the true expert who advanced one solid step at a time."

Bloodrose Qiqi laughed and said, "Okay, actually Sister Shenyue is very enthusiastic. If Brother Fei doesn’t object, then we few large guilds will also organize some alts to slowly play with it."

Da Fei nodded: "No matter how good an airship is, air escort is what really matters, so the Angel development in Divine Punishment City is what’s key for you. All right, Battlefield No.3 has been fought to this point, it should basically be settled. I’ll go walk around some other battlefields to clear my head."

Bloodrose Qiqi laughed and said, "Okay, thanks for the guidance, Brother Fei. Brother Fei, take your time being busy!"

Right now, what Da Fei was most anxious about was Deirdre’s battle situation. Her return point could only be the Lilim Camp, right?

So, Da Fei hurriedly teleported back to Cold Jade City, rushed aboard the ship and came to the Lilim Camp, just in time to see Selvia and Hilda gathered around the camp’s Array casting spells. Above the Array, a spherical mirage hovered, and what it showed was exactly the scene of Deirdre in battle.

Oh damn! There’s even this kind of high-tech live broadcast!

Hilda laughed and said, "Lord City Lord, you’re here!"

Selvia also said rather relaxedly, "Captain, you came at a good time. Deirdre’s battle is going very smoothly! The enemy commander has been completely controlled by the Ancient Tree Roots. If possible, Deirdre might capture and recruit a Banshee Hero!"

Da Fei was suddenly overjoyed: "Another Banshee Hero?"

Sure enough, in the mirage, a fully armored Samurai whose graceful, curvy figure still showed through the armor was standing in front of the General entangled by Ancient Tree Roots, holding a whip and shield. Under the fierce assault of three Lilim, the Banshee was already unable to hold out! So this Banshee Hero was actually a warrior type? And her evasion and parry were unusually high?

Deirdre’s wanton laughter rang out: "You and I are both Banshees, you should know this idiot is beyond saving. Submitting to me is your only way out!"

She’s really trying to recruit! Damn, this is the rhythm where bro releases one Banshee and then earns another Banshee back? Wahahaha, even if it drains me dry, I’ll never嫌 having too many Banshees! Come on, Deirdre just happens to lack a warrior-type Banshee to complement her.

But that whip-and-shield Banshee said toughly, "Ridiculous, how could I possibly submit to someone weaker than me? Once master recovers, you’ll die a horrible death!"

Deirdre laughed loudly: "Simple. Once I kill you a few more times, you’ll be weaker than me, and you’ll have no choice but to yield! However, now is not the time to weaken you!"

At this moment, Tarlok, who was bound by the Ancient Tree, gnashed his teeth in hatred: "Lamia, protect me at all costs, buy me time!"

Deirdre sneered: "Time does not belong to you, you idiot! From the moment you failed to see through my disguise, your destruction was inevitable!"

As she spoke, Deirdre waved her hands repeatedly, and three streaks of Black Light fell from the sky—Triple Curse from the Curse Armor! In that instant, the Banshee named Lamia staggered under the weight of the curses, and could no longer parry or evade, directly getting rammed flying by the charging bodies of the Lilim. The General bound by the Ancient Tree appeared before the Artillery Emperor Army of the Lilim with no power to resist!

"Die one more time!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you’re welcome to come to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly passes. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please go to m.qidian.com to read.)
