Chapter 355 The Gaze of the Lord of Shadows

Tim is a man chosen by God, the chosen one of the Lord of Shadows, and the representative of the Lord of Shadows in this world.

Originally, Tim was just an ordinary thief living at the bottom of Thorn City.During a theft, Tim accidentally missed and was sent to the gallows.

The sunset in the afternoon and the noose around his neck are Tim's last memories.But when Tim opened his eyes again, he found that he came back to life unscathed, and came to a special world.

Tim thought he had come to the Kingdom of God.

Tim's belief in the Lord of Shadows is not pious, but in the face of death and miracles, he prayed like a devout believer, sincerely praising the Lord of Shadows.

Then the Shadow Lord really answered Tim's prayers!

Under the explanation of the Lord of Shadows, Tim knew that he was dead, and became a chosen one, participating in a "battle of the chosen one".If he wins the war, then he will have the opportunity to touch the supreme god!
This is a cruel war with an unknown number of participants. All participants in the war must eliminate the remaining participants and kill all "time monsters (the way the Lord of Shadows calls players)" in order to win in the end.

This is a long war.

With Tim's weak strength, he has no power to resist in such a cruel war!But fortunately, the Lord of Shadows did not abandon Tim.

Under the instruction of the Lord of Shadows, Tim found a temple of the Lord of Shadows in the city.After some arrangements, with the addition of the temple, Tim successfully obtained the favor of the Lord of Shadows and became a powerful phantom assassin—and at the same time possessed the identity of a "chosen one".

The powerful power made Tim full of confidence, and the humble thief gradually became more confident, and began to quietly assassinate those time monsters (players) under the instruction of the Lord of Shadows, and collect [The Power of Time].

As the chosen one of the Lord of Shadows, Tim is undoubtedly powerful!Those weak time monsters (players) could not avoid Tim's assassination at all, but they harvested very little [Power of Time], so Tim turned his attention to other contestants in the "Battle of God's Choice".

As long as you can kill other contestants, you will immediately get a complete [Power of Time]!
And at this moment, Tim discovered a new "competitor" had entered the arena.Before the "competitor" could figure out the situation, Tim tried to assassinate him...

That was Tim's first taste of failure since becoming a voter.

And that failure also made Tim finally start to face himself and his opponents - he is not the only one who is lucky!All the contestants are backed by gods behind them!
This discovery made Tim panic.Because Tim discovered that there was actually a guardian knight of the guardian god among the contestants!That's the assassin's nemesis!

As a believer of the Lord of Shadows, when facing a Guardian Knight of the Guardian God, he would naturally not foolishly carry out an assassination.

After a series of cooperation, Tim contacted some people and successfully attacked the alliance formed by the goddess of the earth, the god of protection, the goddess of nature and the chosen people of the god of light, and the guardian knight left to cover his teammates. , died at the hands of the demon warlock.

The guardian knight's head was snatched by the demon warlock, and during the battle, Tim also successfully attacked the follower of the God of Light and obtained a complete [Power of Time].

That complete [Power of Time] not only strengthened Tim's treasure again, but also gave Tim a special ability——Tim gained the ability to cast [Time Stop].

A [Power of Time] is obviously not enough to satisfy Tim.So at the end of the battle, Tim attacked the demon warlock without hesitation!

The demon warlock killed the guardian knight and obtained a copy of [Power of Time], plus what he owns, that means he has at least two complete copies of [Power of Time]!And because of the previous battle, the demon warlock is in a state of lack of magic power at this time.Such a good opportunity, if he doesn't sneak attack him, Tim feels that he might as well stop being an assassin and switch to a paladin!
Tim didn't intend to be a paladin.So Tim decisively attacked the demon warlock.

Tim's sneak attack didn't go well.Because after Tim activated [Time Stop], he found that in the state of [Time Stop], he couldn't move!

Tim's sneak attack went very well.Because although you can't move during [Time Stop], you can think and prepare skills and spells.So when [Time Stop] ended, Tim successfully launched a surprise attack in the shadows, piercing the heart of the demon warlock with a sword.

One hit kill!
However, in the next second, the demon warlock was revived instantly as if going back in time, and returned to his prime!
And it wasn't until afterward that Tim realized that everyone gained different abilities after acquiring [The Power of Time]—Tim acquired the ability to cast [Time Stop], while the Demon Warlock acquired another kind of ability. ability.

Embarrassed, Tim escaped from the demon sorcerer's spell and declared the alliance broken.

After the alliance broke down, all the "contestants" became wary of the other contestants and spent most of their time hiding in the temple, making them difficult to assassinate.So Tim began to focus on those time monsters (players).

Time monsters also have [Power of Time]. Although they are not as good as the contestants, they add up to a lot. As long as the number increases, they can still gain new time abilities.

Today, Tim, as always, hides in the urban shadows of Cap Town, waiting for an opportunity and a suitable prey.Then Tim sees a time monster traveling alone...

good chance!
Time monsters are not weak. If Tim encounters a group of time monsters, Tim dare not rush up easily - most time monsters are not afraid of death, and are very good at fighting, and there are many strange props and abilities , A hunter may become a prey if one is not careful!Therefore, time monsters like this alone are Tim's favorite.

To Tim's surprise, the time monster was so alert that he noticed his sight.And it seems to have found himself!

As a voter of the Lord of Shadows, he was discovered unexpectedly.This made Tim feel a little ashamed and angry, and what made Tim even more angry was that after the time monster found himself, not only did he not run away directly, but left a trap to ambush himself!

This is provocation!
Looking at the time monster hiding in the corner in a daze, Tim felt a little amused.

As a person chosen by God, Tim felt that it was necessary for him to educate this time monster and let him understand the fate of arrogance!
Tim admits that this time monster is very strong, and it has many strange abilities and props, but this is not a problem - plus the sneak attack and the absolute power gap, Tim feels that he has a great advantage.

……

Then Tim died.

Two complete copies of [Power of Time] fell into Green's hands.

Green carefully observed the system, studying the new profession he had just obtained—the legendary profession [Guardian of Time].

Under normal circumstances, legendary professions need to reach level 20 before they can change jobs, and Green's current level is obviously not up to the standard, but he has gained some limited legendary abilities.

----

Guardian of Time (pseudo) Level 2

Time Stop: You can cast Time Stop as a standard action.Repeated uses of this ability must be separated by 5d4 rounds.

Time Jump: You can escape the timeline and jump to a point in the future (2d10 rounds) in which you do not exist in the world.

----

This is a "false" legend. Green did not get the attribute bonus of the [Legendary] level, but simply obtained some special abilities that can only be possessed after being legendary.

"Time stop and time jump?" Green touched his chin, "Pretty good ability."

Let’s not talk about time stopping.The Archmage’s BUG ability, the Archmage who masters stopping time and the Archmage who doesn’t master time stopping are completely two different creatures!As for time jump, it is also very useful for escaping.

"One round" refers to a period of 6 seconds. It takes 2d10 rounds to disappear on the main plane, which means that I can disappear from the time flow for more than ten seconds!

The time was not long, but it was enough for Green to avoid many dangers.

After taking a look at his new career, Green turned his attention to his own job.

Green's mage level directly "jumped" one level.This is a very terrifying range. Under normal circumstances, it would take at least several years to upgrade to a level. Even if Green had the memory of his past life, it would be impossible to upgrade to level 2 in just a few months.But in this special "battlefield", Green just killed one "contestant" and was directly promoted to a level.

I have to admit that "God's Grace" is really "cheating" - as long as there is a god who is willing to pay the price, it will not be a problem to let someone rise to the legend directly.Compared with "God's Grace", the player's exaggerated upgrade speed is nothing.

After the gold level, every time you upgrade to a level, you can choose to "upgrade (obtain)" your own exclusive treasure or try to "transform" a new treasure.

Upgrading the Noble Phantasm is to upgrade the original Noble Phantasm. If there is no Noble Phantasm, it is possible to "obtain" the Noble Phantasm.The so-called "transforming" a new Noble Phantasm refers to directly transforming other unowned Noble Phantasms into one's own Noble Phantasm.

If it is on the main plane and his collection is still there, Green will definitely choose to "transform" the treasure.Because Green even prepared the object he wanted to transform—that is, the summoning magic book found in the El Dorado maze.

But because of the Shadow Demon King, Green is now destitute!Today, Green's options are very limited-either to upgrade his magic mirror network, or he can only transform the newly acquired "Shadow Boots" into his own treasure.

For an assassin, that [Shadow Boots] is a great treasure!But for a mage, this thing is just a whiteboard!
Raid in the shadows?Green admits the skill is powerful.But I'm a sorcerer, who am I going to raid! ?If you have the kung fu to activate this treasure, it is better to stop the time directly + remove the magic to release the space lock + teleport the spell to escape!

Transforming this thing is of no help at all except for getting yourself a "boot that will never rot"!
"Is it only possible to upgrade the magic mirror network?" After a brief hesitation, Green sighed, put away his boots, and prepared to use them as rewards to fool players into serving him.

To upgrade an existing treasure, Green doesn't need to do anything.After the upgrade, if Green did not "bind" other treasures, then the natal treasure would naturally be upgraded.

Green put away the treasures and trophies, set himself an invisibility and anti-detection spell, and then Green began to walk towards Tim's hiding place.

Green needs to check the assassin's lair to see if he can find any clues.

Green had some bad guesses about why the assassin attacked him.

Green has been pretending to be a player since his resurrection, and there is only one person who knows Green's identity as the "true Loser of Time", and that is Mitchell!At the same time, most of Green's information came from Mitchell, so Green couldn't help but have some bad associations with this sneak attack.

"Mother of the Earth and the Lord of Shadows are secretly colluding?" Green frowned slightly.

The gods will never do anything that violates their own "laws".Although the relationship between the followers of the Lord of Shadows and the followers of the Mother of the Earth is not harmonious, there is no conflict of rules between the two gods, so theoretically the two... two gods can cooperate secretly.

This guess made Green feel a little uncomfortable!
In Green's view, if that's the case, I'm afraid I have to be more careful.

In order to confirm his guess, Green felt that it was necessary to check the assassin's lair to see if he could find any clues or evidence.

Soon, Green entered the room where he had noticed the abnormality before.

Among the houses.Some NPCs stood in the house like decorations, allowing Green to enter and exit the house.

In the house, Green found no useful clues.But Green found a small altar in the basement!

The owner of this house actually believed in the Lord of Shadows, and built an altar of the Lord of Shadows in the basement!

"So, that's why the assassin based here?" Green stood in the basement, looking up at the black altar and the holy emblem floating above the altar.

The holy symbol looks like a black silk mask.Because of the [Mind Eyes] skill, Green felt a sense of peeping from the position of the mask's eyes!

"Hello, Lord of Shadows, nice to meet you." Green bowed to the holy emblem.

The holy emblem didn't respond, but the feeling of being spied on didn't disappear.

Green is very confident in his [Mind Eye] skill, so Green doesn't think the feeling of being spied on is his own illusion.

The Lord of Shadows is not a "good" deity.After the death of the only believer, the shadow lord who likes to plot tricks didn't respond?This is obviously not normal!
