I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means

It's really too dangerous!

This Slaughter Knight is really strange.

Her strength might mostly come from the Slaughter Aura obtained by killing ordinary people, which is somewhat similar to the way players level up through Experience Points.

However, this also makes Fess far weaker than extraordinary professionals of the same level.

No matter what, as a Slaughter Knight who controls the extraordinary domain of [Slaughter], she shouldn't be this weak, right?

According to Fess's situation, she is far from meeting the requirements to become a Slaughter Knight, let alone having the divine power medium to summon the War God's shadow.

Yet, these things have all appeared on Fess.

Could it be that this guy got a backdoor to become a Slaughter Knight?

So she so easily got lost in the pleasure of increasing power through slaughter, and gradually fell.

In the [City of Slaughter] dungeon, players know that to become a Slaughter Knight, one must go through many trials, especially in terms of personal will.

Lis looked at Fess lying on the sand dune, feeling a bit of a headache.

He has to take this guy to the War God Church, otherwise, killing her randomly would leave no evidence.

Just to see if he could get some good things from the War God Church, hopefully, the qualification to receive the War God Baptism.

Thinking of the War God's shadow Fess summoned just now, Lis still felt a bit afraid.

Although with Fess's strength, the War God's shadow she summoned could only make one attack and only had the strength of a high-level legend, it was still not something Lis could withstand head-on.

Although Lis had previously fought once with Andrew of the [Storm Fury] in Ely Hills and experienced the power of a legendary strongman, Lis was still some distance away from a legend.

[Storm Fury] was just newly breaking through to become a legend. Even so, his battle with Lis completely destroyed the hills, and the wind blades scattered around shattered the surrounding mountains.

Not to mention that slashing strike that spanned across dozens of kilometers of desert.

Really don't know where Fess got the divine power medium to summon the War God's shadow.

This level of item should be fully wielded by a legendary level Slaughter Knight to exert its proper powerful strength.

It's simply a waste for Fess to use it with her strength.

You should know that condensing this divine power medium requires a large consumption of divine power and is one of the most precious treasures of the War God Church and is quite rare in quantity.

Otherwise, if each Slaughter Knight had one, summoning the War God's shadow could simply crush other extraordinary forces.

Similarly, the space transmission item Fess used just now is also quite powerful, as can be seen from the distance it transmitted.

But fortunately, Fess is not a mage and couldn't hide the space ripples generated when using space transmission, letting Lis follow the aftereffects to chase over.

If Fess had really escaped, Lis would have a headache.

But all in all, the final result was still good.

-----------------

Lis slightly nodded while looking at the prompt on the system panel.

Fess's own strength was not troublesome for Lis, she was almost crushed by Lis throughout the entire process, not even triggering the Limited Challenge Task.

However, through the power of the [Wisdom] domain, Lis also successfully extracted the extraordinary domain [Slaughter] from Fess.

Feeling the newly controllable power in his consciousness, Lis was somewhat surprised.

Compared with the extraordinary domains of [Storm], [Wave], and [Thunder], [Slaughter] is more like the [Wisdom] domain that Lis mastered, a conceptual rule power.

That is, on the basis of the world's cornerstone rules, newly derived special rules in Gaia World.

The [Slaughter] domain can bring Lis more direct combat power enhancement, and at the same time, let Lis absorb power from slaughter to enhance his own strength.

However, Lis definitely wouldn't immerse himself in this strength enhancement as Fess did. If there is a solid foundation and firm consciousness, the [Slaughter] domain can indeed quickly boost strength.

But just like Fess, the enhanced strength is just a castle in the air.

Moreover, for Lis, rather than relying on the [Slaughter] domain to boost strength, it's faster to directly spend experience points to raise the level.

Looking at the unconscious Fess in front of him, Lis thought for a moment, then brought Fess into the [Secret Storage Room] in [Sarmekhal's copper ring].

Throwing Fess into the bedroom with no important items, he casually set up several strong barrier seals.

Although he had already taken all of Fess's equipment and items and used high-level coma spells that should keep her asleep forever, Lis was still somewhat worried about Fess, who could take out the divine power medium of the War God.

Don't let her take out some strange things again.

For the items carried by Fess, those were Lis's spoils of war. Even the War God Church couldn't ask Lis for them back.

Easily breaking through the spiritual imprint in the storage ring left by Fess, Lis began to tally the gains of this time.

The space in this storage ring was quite large, but most of it was gold coins and miscellaneous valuables, some of the jewelry still stained with blood, probably looted when Fess led the desert bandits to massacre ordinary people.

Besides these, there were some magic items and potions, but none of them were useful to Lis.

Additionally, the Slaughter Armor blessed by the War God Church on Fess was almost broken under Lis's attacks and could only be collected as a souvenir.

Fess's blood-colored longsword was quite good, with special bonuses and blood-sucking effects in close combat, considered strong among golden rank weapons.

But it was of no use to Lis. After all, he could already "forge" legendary rank weapons, although the effect was average, it was certainly better than the golden rank longsword.

Lis clapped his hands and used space transmission to return to the oasis.

All the members of the caravan had woken up, holding weapons on high alert, looking for potential threats around.

Seeing Lis return, Blais breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly stepped forward to say to Lis:

"Sir Lis, this is..."

Lis smiled and said:

"It's nothing, just solved a little trouble, everyone go back to rest!"

A little trouble?

Blais looked at the still menacing gully not far away, with mixed feelings.

How strong is Lis really?

He had just checked around and found that only Lis and the Slaughter Knight Fess were missing from the camp, could it be...

But since Lis doesn't intend to explain to him, he wouldn't actively ask.

Having traveled the world for many years, Blais understood that sometimes the more you know, the more dangerous it is. He didn't want to get involved in anything related to the War God Church.

Whatever Lis says, he believes it!

Seeing this, Blais then told the others not to worry and to quickly rest, as they had to travel again tomorrow!

Under Blais's arrangements, everyone in the caravan slowly dispersed, returning to their tents to rest.

Today was bound to be an extremely memorable day for them.

But the remaining members of the Sand Clan were not so relaxed. Although extremely tired, they still kept vigil together, afraid of any more unexpected incidents.

Taya also came to Lis's side.

When Lis and Fess were fighting just now, she had already noticed something was wrong and came over to check.

But because of the barrier of the space cage, she did not intervene in their duel.

She believed Lis would handle it!

Lis looked at Taya, smiling as he rubbed her head and said:

"It's okay, later I'll take you to the War God Church to take advantage of it!"
