Chapter 721 - 632: I Will Crown You (7)
"Assassin God Armor!" Lu Shuhang roared.
He suddenly plunged the dagger in his hand into his own chest, like Pandora’s Box being opened, an evil-vapor-like black smoke erupted from his body, sweeping across the entire world!
An invisible pressure suddenly descended from the sky, all the glass within a hundred meters simultaneously shattered, the shadows covered the sky, the deathly silence engulfed the prison!
The black smoke on the ground surged madly towards the sky, embracing the descending smoke from above, a storm raged, in the center of that pitch-black Spiral Tower, the silhouette of a young man flickered, all things faded into silence within the shadows.
"Yes, just like this, my dear president, show them the real you!" Boat Night exclaimed with arms wide open.
Instantly, an enormous ethereal silhouette merged with the young man, the black smoke began to gather, azure patterns spread along Lu Shuhang’s arms, forming armor. Iron locks burst from the abyss, the scales on the armor snapped together loudly, heartbeat thundering like a battle drum!
"Is this Lu Shuhang’s Divine Gift!?"
A chorus of astonished cries erupted, Nanjiamu even stood up.
"That’s impossible! Didn’t the Dark Gold Rose disable Assassin’s Creed’s Divine Gift?"
"According to the rules, the disabled items can only not be brought into the instance, it doesn’t say they can’t be used inside the instance, as long as it’s ensured that the item is generated after entering the instance."
Boat Night shrugged,
"Why, is it just fine for the Dark Gold Rose to use those artifacts in the instance, but not allow Lu Shuhang to liberate his Divine Gift in battle?"
"Is this his first time liberating the Divine Gift?" Nanjiamu murmured.
He had never seen a Divine Gift in such a form, from every angle it looked like an... Evil Ghost.
The complete form of a Divine Gift should fit the user’s body perfectly, like everyday clothes, but not like Lu Shuhang’s, with pitch-black armor almost wrapping him entirely inside, black smoke surging on the surface, making it impossible to see the whole of this Divine Gift, only able to hear the deep heavy breathing and beast-like roars.
If Nanjiamu had to describe it, he could only think of one phrase.
Madness suppressed for too long.
"Lu Shuhang has liberated his Divine Gift!"
The commentator’s passionate voice unveiled the final scene of this intense competition.
"Divine Gift Liberation?"
Xu Xiaoyou suddenly felt things turning unfavorable, as she simultaneously liberated the Rose Destiny Armor and activated Banker’s Hour, reaching her peak state, a giant golden roulette phantom forming behind her.
Without any hesitation, as two dice with faces numbered ’6’ fell, she forcibly terminated the Banker’s Hour, twelve golden chips descended from the sky, successively striking her.
In the dark light and shadow, various enhancements shattered golden fragments.
With her deepening control over Rose Destiny Armor, she found some ’cheating’ methods to bypass the forced mechanisms of Rose Destiny Armor.
Like now, by making her heart stop, letting the Divine Gift determine her ’death’, forcibly terminating and skipping the ’fundraising’ stage settlement, instantly gaining all the Banker’s Hour enhancements.
"Youyou!" Xu Xiaoyou murmured.
Bai Youyou rushed out one step ahead of her, using Lu Shuhang’s ’Divine Gift liberation’ as testimony, successfully entering a brief ’Harmonizer’ state.
In the instant the black and white shadows clashed, Bai Youyou flew backward, uncontrollably crashing through countless walls.
As Bai Youyou adjusted her form, she was astonished internally, finding that the opponent’s attributes far exceeded even her Harmonizer state.
She could only think of one possibility, the opponent’s incomplete Divine Gift triggered a mental breakdown, and this Divine Gift itself was a growth-type Divine Gift, similar to harvesting others’ spirits, releasing and enhancing the user upon activation.
Seeing this, Xu Xiaoyou dashed forward, the black Deacon’s Long Sword manifested in her hands, driving phantom trails, colliding with Lu Shuhang’s gauntlet.
The instant gold and black collided, flickering light and shadows burst forth, splitting the world into clearly defined semicircles, extinguishing energy expanded, crushed stones being pulverized!
Even with the Rose Destiny Armor, Banker’s Hour, and [Bad Girl Workshop] three statuses wielded, Xu Xiaoyou found it difficult to contend with Lu Shuhang at this moment.
As the gauntlet on the right side thrust forward, Xu Xiaoyou had no choice but to avoid his assault, swiftly darting to the side wing, evading Lu Shuhang’s subsequent attacks.
Lu Shuhang’s five fingers lifted, shadows resembling wine pouring from a wineglass, flowing from the sky to the earth, greedily plundering everything on the ground, countless buildings collapsed within the tidal-like shadows.
"It’s rare to see you this irrational."
Xu Xiaoyou swiftly darted between collapsing high-rises, evading the shadow’s chase.
"Let me guess what activating this Divine Gift means to you, either depleting your potential or it can only be used once?"
"You’re wrong," Lu Shuhang’s voice was cold as iron, echoing ethereally, "I’ve hardly anything left to lose now."
"I just want to win this competition, that’s all."
The shadows gathered into countless giant pillars, smashing from the sky to the earth.
"Always living for others, isn’t it tiring?" Xu Xiaoyou called back as she turned.
Her dual swords crossed at her shoulders, slashing powerfully. Arced black sword energy collided with the giant pillars.
After a brief standoff, the pillars exploded and shattered, the curved blade flew towards Lu Shuhang.
Lu Shuhang’s raised fingers contracted, darkness gathered from all directions, even the last trace of light in the world was swallowed by the darkness, the flying curved blade vanished into the expanding darkness.
As his fingers spread open again, black-purple flames seemed to ignite on the sword sheathe, the flames slowly burned, then suddenly exploded, a colossal black sword appeared in his hands, the sword extended from sky to ground, black light and white light perished within.
Lu Shuhang gripped the sword hilt with both hands, sweeping forcefully downwards, the blade light sweeping instantly through countless high-rises, creating a white mark in the middle of each structure, then explosively shattering, extinguished by the oncoming blade light.
As the smoke dissipated, on a flattened wasteland, Xu Xiaoyou’s figure wavered unsteadily, her clean ceremonial dress damaged, her hair loosened, her bloodstained face surprisingly carrying a smile.
"Let me guess again, how long can your current state last, one minute, two minutes?"
Speaking, Xu Xiaoyou leaped into the air again, her dual swords broke countless flying black pillars, powerfully slicing downward, the black pillars split in two, Lu Shuhang’s figure appeared in the center of her sight.
"You finally decide to crawl out of your pit?"
"Even you say that about me."
Lu Shuhang shook his head, ignored Xu Xiaoyou, and turned to fly toward the black box.
Xu Xiaoyou clicked her tongue, the dual swords suddenly slashed to either side, accelerating to catch up.
A black and gold stream of light collided and tangled mid-air, everything along the way was destroyed by the aftermath of their battle, they fought from sky to ground, then ascended together to the air, confronting over a distance.
At this moment, the black box fell from the sky, appearing right between them.
The final showdown!
