Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest

Chapter 247: Victory in the Final Battle, Reward Calculation!

Red Maple City, Wartime Church.

After winning the final victory in the previous decisive battle, Luo Xiu, the "presiding priest", led the priests who participated in the battle back to the church.

Maiyev, the chief officer of the mission, rushed into the sanctuary as soon as he returned to the church and made arrangements for many new tasks. The clergy of the "missionary" who originally stayed in the church suddenly became Busier than ever.

They need to treat the clergy who were injured in the war, and at the same time, they also need to prepare a prayer ceremony for the dead.

The acolytes of other sanctuaries received the signal from Luo Xiu, who was "presiding over the great ceremony", and went to meet in the Holy Office.

At this time, in the Holy Office.

In addition to Mayev, seven of the nine "deacons" in the three major sanctuaries of the church have arrived.

Luo Xiu, who was at the front seat, no longer waited, and said slowly and solemnly:

"Everyone, I invite you here to review the previous decisive battle."

"...But, before that."

"I hope to pay my respects to the victims first."

"We will always remember the 'Fire Priest' Gratton, and we will also always remember the six priests who were martyred with him."

After saying that, Luo Xiu stood up, caressed his left chest with his right hand, and nodded with a low expression.

The seven deacons of the church also followed Luo Xiu's actions and stood up, nodding in memory.

The wordless silence lasted for a minute before Luo Xiu gently put down his right hand and said slowly:

"May their souls go to eternal heaven."

After saying that, Luo Xiu sat back in his seat.

The other "deacons" of the church also followed Luo Xiuxian and then sat back to their respective positions.

Afterwards, Luo Xiu glanced at Anthony. The understanding Anthony immediately said:

"Then, let me report to Daisai first."

"This time, among the priests who went to the battlefield to participate in the decisive battle, seventy-seven of them actually left and seventy were returned."

After a pause, Anthony continued, "Although seven of our colleagues have gone to the Kingdom of Heaven, we still severely damaged the enemy and sentenced a total of one hundred and thirty-seven [Lost] heretics."

"This should be a great victory. In the face of the enemy's massive invasion offensive, Red Maple City's victory will be a highlight in the trial war."

"……Um."

Luo Xiu nodded, and then looked at the other aide next to Anthony.

It was a woman from the mission, a triple-destined pastor, "Sesia Solomel," who came to listen to the meeting in Maiyev's place.

Sethia pondered for a while before speaking:

"I'm here to make a report on behalf of Chief Maiyev."

"In the previous decisive battle, we seized a total of more than 2,300 gold coins, 83 doses of various medicines, and 56 'rare' and 13 'rare' items from the 'adjudicated' heretics. Rare', four pieces of 'Master' quality equipment, and several 'Rare', 'Rare' and 'Master' quality materials."

"This is enough to replenish our damaged equipment and replenish the church's inventory, Master Daji."

"Also, there is one more thing. When most of the clergymen went out to fight in the city, the church was invaded by the pagans who were dormant in the city. Fortunately, there were no casualties among the clergymen."

After speaking, Sethia said no more, but maintained her original dignity and silence.

"Well, I understand." Luo Xiu nodded again.

His eyes immediately turned to the chief officer of the "Secret Place", waiting for his final report.

Right where Luo Xiu's sight fell, there was a taciturn priest named Olga Schaefer.

But unlike ordinary "triple destiny" priests, Olga did not wear clerical attire, but instead wore an exquisite robe that symbolized the status of an imperial noble.

Olga, who was silently listening to the reports of the other "deacons", slowly raised her head and said after feeling the sight of Luo Xiu, the "host of the ceremony".

"The 'Secret Place' has always maintained a connection with the 'Bianting' and 'Fangbeiyuan'."

"I heard that while you and other priests were participating in the decisive battle, the 'Bianting' and 'Fangbeiyuan' were also attacked by heretics who infiltrated into Red Maple City."

"However, apart from some damage to buildings and injuries, there were no victims in the side courtyard and Fangbei Courtyard."

"However, in addition to these, enemy infiltration forces have also taken action against civilians."

"At the same time as the enemy's attack on the church, the side courtyard and the obelisk courtyard, they launched a vicious attack on the shops in the main street. Although the guards of the mansion killed the thugs in time, three merchants died in the riot ”

"Now, the secret base is assisting the 'Bianting' and 'Mansion' to quell the negative public opinion among the people."

"In addition, due to the impact of previous vicious attacks, we have received new dissatisfaction and condemnation from private business organizations."

"Many businessmen on the main street have signed a petition saying that the church's 'judgment' against heretics is not thorough. They demand that we take responsibility for the deaths of the three businessmen and fully disclose the church's information to the outside world and maintain transparency. Better accept social supervision.”

"..." When Olga finished reporting this, all the clergymen present fell silent. Luo Xiu, the leader of the group who was "presiding over the ceremony", also had an almost invisible twitch in the corner of his mouth.

He is really unruly... Luo Xiu cursed.

But his face did not reveal what he was thinking, but he said calmly:

"I understand. So, Anthony, Cecia, and Olga, listen up."

“We have just come out of a war, and the church now needs a break.”

"Except for necessary follow-up work, I will give all clergy of the church a total of two days of leave. During this period, although the clergy cannot leave the church, they do not need to carry out the church's regular schedule."

"The name of the holy holiday is 'celebration' and 'remembering' - we celebrate a new victory and remember all those who lost their lives due to war."

After a pause, Luo Xiu continued:

"Wait for two days, Anthony. You organize the Holy Inquisitors of the Holy Inquisition. I want to investigate the coniferous forest that was burning on the battlefield."

"And, Olga, about what you said."

"You asked the secret office to draft a notice. The church sympathizes with the sufferings of the three businessmen who were killed, but it is not responsible for the matter, and it is even less likely to disclose the church's information. Ordinary thugs who have not yet entered the extraordinary need not be 'adjudicated' and stopped. Their atrocities should be the job of the palace guards."

"But, in the name of the church, Olga. I hope you will 'donate' a hundred Nolan gold coins as condolences to the family of the businessman who died, and disclose this matter to other civil organizations in Red Maple City. What will happen next, the mansion Will help us finish."

"Well... let's arrange it this way for the time being."

After explaining this to the 'deacons' present, Luo Xiu gently put his right hand on his forehead, with a tired look on his face.

After hearing what Luo Xiu said, the other "deacons" in the church stood up, bowed to Luo Xiu and left.

They received the signal of the 'Great Sacrifice' and returned to their respective sanctuaries. Soon only Luo Xiu was left in the Holy Office.

After staying for a while, Luo Xiu also got up from the main seat and left, returning to his "Grand Sacrifice Residence".

The inner courtyard of the church and the residence of the high priest.

When he returned to his room, the first thing Luo Xiu did was to lie down on the bed, close his eyes, and fully feel the touch of being wrapped in soft quilts.

A feeling of fatigue suddenly surged up like a tide. In the decisive battle in the previous half day, he had fought for too long, and his body was already overloaded.

Luo Xiu almost forced himself to hold on until now and explained the future arrangements to several other 'deacons' in the church. Now, he can finally rest at ease to make up for the sleep he has been in debt since he became the high priest.

However, before that, he opened his own panel.

——He will first conduct three reward settlements.

That’s the reward settlement for killing “The Cursed One” Haqiz, “The Beast Tamer” Claure, and [Limited Time Mission: Decisive Battle in Red Maple City]!

At this time, there are still about two hours left before the limited time limit of [Red Maple City Decisive Battle] ends.

Before the time limit expired and the tasks were automatically settled, Luo Xiu planned to settle them first to avoid long nights and nightmares.

After temporarily eliminating the chaotic thoughts in his mind, Luo Xiu symbolically completed the ritualistic "sacrifice", then opened the mailbox panel and gave the panel the "receive" instruction.

[Kill "The Cursed One" Haqiz (lv.37) and gain 2989 basic experience points]

["Judgement of Glory" takes effect, gaining 4 free attribute points]

[Reward settlement, actually gained 2989 experience points! 】

【……】

[Kill reward has been generated]

[Acquire the expertise "Wrist of Erosion Curse (Rare)", free attribute points*5]!

[The Wrist of the Erosion Curse (Rare): You have been plagued by the curse, it will eventually kill you, or you will kill it. 】

[The power of the "curse" exerted by you is greatly increased to 200% of the base level, and the effect of the "curse" will also be increased by one level (up to depth). You will pay a corresponding price: whenever you apply a "curse", you will immediately suffer the backlash of 30% of the power of the "curse". This backlash is "original" damage and cannot be purified, offset or blocked by shields. 】

【……】

"...Grass." Luo Xiu's eyes darkened.

There are no skills related to "curse" in his skill bar. Obtaining this expertise can only be said to be promising in the future.

In addition, its side effects are quite serious - the "original" damage that cannot be purified or offset is backlashed, plus several other self-mutilation specialties possessed by "The Cursed One" Haqiz, Luo Xiu finally understood , the reason why the "Bound One" would explode with blood while fighting.

It can only be said that this is the exclusive expertise of the "Lost" fate "spell masters", but for the current Luo Xiu, it has zero improvement... Luo Xiu was a little entangled, and finally confirmed the settlement result this time. Obtaining this expertise is an early investment in the "curse" means that you may have in the future.

After that, Luo Xiu settled the kill reward of "Animal Tamer" Claure.

[Kill "Beast Tamer" Krall (lv.38) and obtain 3022 basic experience points]

["Judgement of Glory" takes effect, gaining 4 free attribute points]

[Reward settlement, actually gained 3022 experience points! 】

【……】

["Beast Tamer" Krall is a mad boss]

[The reward for killing the mad boss is being generated...]

[Kill reward has been generated]

[Acquire the expertise "Eye of the Tamer (Rare)", free attribute points*5]!

[Eye of the Tamer (Rare): You have a natural charisma for monsters, and they cannot resist your sight. ]

[Your "Perception" increases by 12 points. When you look into the eyes of a "Monster" creature, monsters with a lower level than you will feel fear and obedience to you, and monsters with a higher level than you will feel friendly and intimate with you. This effect is invalid when the monster's level is 20 or more higher than yours. ]

[……]

"……Fuck." Luo Xiu's eyes went dark again.

This time, the two rare feats obtained from killing boss-level enemies are both of the type of limited professional specialization.

Luo Xiu also confirmed the results of the kill reward for "Tamer" Crowler, and used the feat of "Eye of the Tamer" as a special solution for special situations that may be encountered in the future.

After completing the settlement of the rewards for killing the "Cursed Binder" and "Tamer", Luo Xiu immediately closed the mailbox panel, opened the task panel, and opened the task details page of [Limited-time Task: Red Maple City Decisive Battle].

Scrolling to the bottom, Luo Xiu also gave the panel the command of "settlement".

[Limited-time Task: Red Maple City Decisive Battle (Nightmare Difficulty)]

[Your faction won this decisive battle, and you have made an indelible contribution to this. ]

[You have completed the current main task goal]

[You have completed the additional task goal 2]

[You have completed the additional task goal 4]

[Task settlement...]

[Obtained the main completion reward: basic experience +29800, free attribute points +29]

[Obtained additional completion reward: basic experience +10000, free attribute points +8]

[Obtained special completion reward: Adaptation to Destiny'Epic' quality expertise *1]

[...]

After confirming the settlement, new content quickly appeared on Luo Xiu's panel.

After taking a quick look at the regular rewards, Luo Xiu focused his attention on the "special completion rewards".

The 'epic' quality expertise that matches destiny is exactly Luo Xiu's biggest goal this time!

"Settlement."

Without hesitating for too long, Luo Xiu continued to give instructions on the panel to settle the expertise, and a wave of light and shadows appeared in front of him again.

[……]

[Adapting to the 'epic' quality expertise is being generated...]

[Obtain the expertise 'Spiritual Controller (Epic)']!

[Spiritual Controller (Epic): You have mastered 'spirituality' to the utmost. You are gradually understanding its essence and realizing that the body, mind and spirit are tending to be one.

Your "divine" attribute is increased by 24 points, and other attributes are increased by 8 points. Your mana calculation base is 5 times the value of the "divine" attribute. At the same time, your "mana" and "spell attack" will both receive an additional 20% increase. ]

[……]

"...hiss!"

Luo Xiu's eyes lit up!

Of the three settlements today, the settlement of the last "epic" quality specialty made him feel the most satisfied.

With the new specialty "Spiritual Controller", his mana depth will jump up another level. At the same time, as a magic profession, his "spell attack" value will also break through to an unprecedented height!

After confirming the specialty of this last settlement, Luo Xiu closed the panel with satisfaction.

Turning the spirituality in his body and experiencing the real feeling brought by each strengthening, Luo Xiu gradually felt his consciousness blurred.

As the last wakefulness dissipated, Luo Xiu also fell into a deep sleep.

Until the next morning.

The next day, early in the morning.

On the first day after Luo Xiu gave the church two days of "holy leave", the guiding priest Colen, who was forced to work overtime, received a special guest.

"Old guest" Nelson City Lord, suddenly visited with "Grand Inquisitor" Baines, which frightened Colen a little, and he couldn't help but feel timid when facing Baines.

"Don't panic, Lord Colen. Lord Baines is kind and friendly. Just treat us like ordinary visitors."

Nelson City Lord smiled and said:

"Please excuse me. We are here to visit Lord Luo Xiu, the 'High Priest'. Is it convenient now?"
