Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest

Chapter 20 Broken Thorns

"Join... the Holy Judge?" Luo Xiu was stunned.

He had thought before that after he was officially promoted to the extraordinary, he would consider joining the "Holy Judge" organization.

In this way, Luo Xiu would not only get more opportunities to "earn experience" and "explode gold coins", but also significantly help improve his own strength.

In addition, he can also get a monthly "salary" and a considerable reward for completing commissions...

However, all this has a prerequisite, that is, "after being promoted to the extraordinary"!

If Luo Xiu remembered correctly, the selection criteria of the "Holy Judge" organization are very strict, and the minimum entry requirement is to reach the second destiny of [Glorious] and become an extraordinary person.

In addition, a series of identity review, political review, and belief review processes must be passed...

However, now, the opportunity to join the "Holy Judge" organization is just in front of him!

"This is too sudden..." Luo Xiu did not give an immediate answer, but pondered, "I am not a transcendent yet..."

"But you are not far from entering the door of transcendence."

Connor shook his head and smiled, "However, we are just inviting you, and we do not have the specific decision-making power..."

"But," Connor changed the subject, "When you officially enter the transcendence, if you decide to join us, Pamier and I can be your witnesses."

After speaking, Connor handed over the gold-sealed letter, and Luo Xiu reached out to take it.

"Okay." Luo Xiu nodded and said, "I will think about it carefully."

...

After watching Connor and Pamier leave, Luo Xiu took the letter and returned to his room.

Whether to join the "Holy Judge" is something that needs to be carefully considered.

First of all, Luo Xiu deeply understands that he must not expose his secret cultivation of the [Abyss] destiny.

Even though no one on Fanol Continent knows the power of the Abyss now, in the 2.0 version of "Scarlet Moon", people will gradually appreciate the horror of this power from the tide of "Scarlet"!

And by the time of the 3.0 version of "Echoes of the Abyss", the power of the Abyss will be officially made public.

By then, the extraordinary system of the nine major destinies will be completed, and an unprecedented storm will be set off on Fanol Continent!

Therefore, unless Luo Xiu keeps hiding his power, the secret of his fate of the Abyss will be discovered sooner or later.

And by that time, the "Holy Judge" organization will no longer be his safe haven, and he will be the enemy of the entire "Holy Court".

And with the huge size of the "Holy Court", it is easy to crush a Luo Xiu...

Luo Xiu couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. He was a long-term thinker and habitually considered the worst consequences.

Secondly, there was another thing that made Luo Xiu feel worried.

Connor called himself "Luo Xiu Carlos" before, but his character panel shows that he should be called "Luo Xiu Durant".

The Holy Judges should not make such a low-level mistake as mispronouncing names...

In other words, within the Holy Judges organization, their records of their own information are - "Luo Xiu"'s background comes from a family with the surname "Carlos".

Maybe there is a secret in this...?

Luo Xiu couldn't help but think, and when he recalled his character panel, there were indeed some things worth noting.

- In addition to the "Heart of Apocalypse", Luo Xiu has another specialty, called "Relict"!

This is a simple blank specialty, just to represent Luo Xiu's identity as an orphan in the "present tense".

Originally, Luo Xiu didn't care much about this specialty... But now Luo Xiu decided that if he had time in the future, he must investigate his life experience.

Maybe one day, he will suddenly be able to eat his own shocking melon!

...

However, these concerns are actually long-term worries, after all, it is only the first half of the server opening.

And the "Judgment War" of version 1.0 will last for a whole year.

It will be a long time before Luo Xiu officially encounters the main plot after version 2.0.

In this case, it is better to grasp the immediate benefits first.

After joining the "Holy Judge", you can get an extremely reliable backing for at least one year.

Moreover, the knowledge and skills related to the fate of [Glorious] can also be exchanged with merit points, instead of like casual players, most of the extraordinary knowledge can only be picked up by cheating...

From this point of view alone, joining the "Holy Judge" organization in the short term is far more beneficial than disadvantageous.

While thinking, Luo Xiu has made a secret decision in his heart.

...

Late at night.

After completing a day's homework and leading the believers to complete today's praise in the afternoon, Luo Xiu buried himself in the quilt like a salted fish.

He finally had time to be alone and settle the rewards for purifying the undead and completing the promotion tasks.

Opening the panel, the red dot on the mailbox jumped.

Luo Xiu stared at the panel and issued an order in his mind.

"Receive."

[......]

[Kill Morris · Fallen Undead (lv.18) and get 588 basic experience points]

[Morris · Fallen Undead (lv.18) is 8 levels higher than you]

[Kill above your level! Get 80% extra experience points...]

[Reward settlement, actually get 1058 experience points! ]

[Morris · Fallen Undead (lv.18) is a dangerous boss]

[Generating rewards for killing dangerous bosses...]

[...]

"Good fellow, it's actually a dangerous boss..." Luo Xiu murmured.

He originally only wanted to create an ordinary undead monster, but after Morris's undead devoured Fold's body, it seemed to have undergone a fundamental change and transformed into a map boss-level monster!

But think about it, the panel detection showed that the undead Morris had a life value of 562 points, which is far beyond the level of a double destiny transcendent.

[Kill rewards have been generated]

[Get the expertise "Broken Thorns (Ordinary)", free attribute points * 1]

[Broken Thorns (Ordinary): The poor and desperate people entangled by thorns will eventually swing their swords to cut off the shackles of thorns and their miserable lives...

The physical attack initiated by you increases the damage by 10%, and when you suffer physical damage, 10% of the damage value will be rebounded. ]

[...]

"Good fellow... Really good fellow..."

Luo Xiu's eyes lit up!

Originally, I just wanted to kill an ordinary undead monster and complete the promotion task, but I didn't expect to accidentally encounter a dangerous map boss, and a new expertise was revealed from the boss!

This is the first new expertise that Luo Xiu has obtained since he crossed over!

Generally speaking, there are many ways to get rewards for killing bosses, such as obtaining extraordinary props and materials, obtaining special skills and abilities, obtaining expertise, etc.

And the expertise is the most cost-effective among all the reward categories!

Because expertise is not limited by the slot, although the difficulty of obtaining it is much higher than that of other items, in theory, as long as you are hardworking enough, the buff given by the expertise can be infinitely stacked!

Although the expertise that was revealed this time is only of "ordinary" quality, its practicality is really not low!

This is equivalent to directly increasing the amount of physical damage by 10%, and then giving yourself a 10% physical damage armor. Although the value is not particularly high, in the early novice stage before the value inflation, this 10% is equivalent to a pure number increase!

After calculating the rewards for killing the zombies, Luo Xiu was in a better mood than ever before.

He closed the kill reward calculation and opened the promotion task panel.

"Completed" three golden words appeared at the bottom.

"Completed." Luo Xiu gave new instructions in his mind.
