Pastor's Tantra

"Promotion ceremony? But my promotion profession is Huantiansi's 'Senior Sin Scholar'. If Huantiansi has ill intentions towards me, have I chosen the wrong path?"

Aiwass was very worried: "Moreover, I am still being hunted by Xiong Tiansi... Even if I am fine, the people who were promoted with me will be in danger. This is also unfair to them."

"The former doesn't matter, Huan Tiansi is your shepherd. Although he will treat you as an enemy, he will do his best to protect you and nurture you before the fateful day arrives."

The Lord of Scale Feather nodded happily: “So this will be a single promotion ceremony.

"——In the future you can see, this should not be uncommon."

... indeed there is.

Aiwass nodded slowly.

In addition to the New Moon Ceremony and the Full Moon Ceremony, there is also the "Eclipse Ceremony".

This ritual can only be established under two circumstances - one is because the version of the game is unbalanced. Based on the setting of the "Ring of Ending" ritual, the progress of breaking through the level cap of different paths is disrupted. Because of this, when careers are uneven, there will always be people who are unable to complete the highest-level promotion ceremony.

Secondly, when the game reaches the middle and late stages, new players who join the game in the early stage will not be able to gather enough nine-player lineups. Because there are not that many newcomers, and the paths of newcomers are uneven.

Therefore, after a certain version update, the "Lunar Eclipse Ritual" was launched. That is to say, the single-player high-difficulty version is even more difficult than New Moon Ritual. However, considering the catch-up mechanism after the level limit is raised, all attributes of newcomers will increase in the early stage, so it is not too sad. As for Kryptonians, Xiaodai and anchors, they can also complete the difficult lunar eclipse ritual as soon as possible after the version is opened to break through the energy level limit and reach the new hard level limit.

And judging from the situation in this world...

The lunar eclipse ritual is actually an active "absence ritual".

……etc?

Aiwass suddenly reacted: "You will be the host yourself? And I will do the ceremony alone..."

"Yes."

The Lord of Scale Feather touched Aiwass' head.

Although he has no face and therefore no expression, Aiwass feels that his smile at this moment should be kind.

"You have His triple brand on your body...you might be able to lure Xiong Tiansi over, right?

"If He takes the bait, you can feel more at ease in the future. Even if He sends out other apostles cautiously, it can continue to cut off His hands and feet and weaken His power."

"...Why are you targeting Xiong Tiansi?"

Aiwass was a little confused.

It is understandable if the Silver Crown Dragon targets Xiong Tiansi, or if Si Zhu targets Xiong Tiansi Aiwass.

But it was the Lord of Scales and Feathers who was active in the evil deeds.

"Well, how should I put it?"

The Lord of Scales and Feathers crossed his arms and thought about the answer.

He suddenly laughed: "Ah, let's put it this way. You must have played that kind of fantasy-themed RPG game."

"……yes."

Aiwass replied, feeling this strange.

Because in his understanding, this world comes from the game "The Ring of Endgame".

"This world is like a fantasy-themed RPG. In this game, there are also paladins, mages, assassins, archers, priests, monks, and necromancers... But do you feel that it is missing What to order?”

"...less, warrior?"

Aiwass blurted out.

"That's right."

The Lord of Scale Feather nodded with satisfaction and said: "Being able to adapt to battles and battles, and survive the cruel battlefield... I think this is also a profession that can adapt to the path.

"——The days when Xiong Tiansi monopolized the 'warrior' profession are over. It's time for him to give me this [power]."

"...Are you going to create a [Warrior] profession?"

Aiwass said in shock.

The Lord of Scales and Feathers clicked his tongue with some dissatisfaction: "Your reaction...you should have said, 'If you want it, come and get it yourself. You know the rules.' But he didn't even give you this memory. It seems that He doesn't care It’s not very clean either.”

Sounds like a joke, Aiwass thought.

But it was too late for him to remember this strange joke...

Because Aiwass immediately realized that the future of this world might be about to change drastically.

It’s even bigger than Avalon’s Counterattack against Star Antimony and The Theocracy is no longer divided!

There is no doubt that this is a development that has never been seen in "The Ring of Endings".

He knows that many players have deep feelings for the "warrior" profession. But there are no warriors in "The Ring of the End"... This is a pure villain profession that only appears among the enemies of the Supreme Sky series.

The professions closest to the warrior position are the knight profession that was stripped off by the Silver Crown Dragon, or the ranger promoted by the hunter - a physical profession that is proficient in both near and far.

If the Lord of Scale Feather can really defeat Xiong Tiansi and create the warrior profession, it means that huge changes will occur in the future.

A large part of the reason for the lack of extraordinary people in the world today is because they were professionals on the path of power hundreds of years ago. Since the promotion of the professional system, "warriors" on the path of strength have become the most populous professionals.

Whether it's a sword or an ax or a hammer, whether it's melee or long-range, whether it's a crossbow or a firearm... as long as the purpose of getting stronger is to fight and become stronger, then it already fits the characteristics of the path of strength. .

Those knights, warriors, swordsmen, berserkers...these are the extraordinary professions with the lowest threshold. There is no need for tantra books or going to university to learn the secret knowledge. You only need to become a master and practice martial arts to achieve extraordinary things.

In past wars, the two sides always fought fiercely, but it was difficult to change the territory. It is because both sides have enough "soldiers" that they are mainly consumed in the war.

But since the fall of the Supreme Heaven, the road has changed hands... the war situation has changed significantly. Those brave warriors who were one to ten disappeared and were replaced by technical attacks - spells, necromancy, legal spells, traps, toxins, plus alchemy products, curses, rituals, assassins... Basically consumption and interference occurred. before the two armies fought.

Once there is a formal confrontation, one side will always be defeated instantly.

Because after the exchange of fire, the restraint relationship between the extraordinary people will become extremely clear - the wizard's spells are difficult to take effect on the rune colossus and gargoyles, while the priest can easily drive away the powerful gargoyles, undead and demons. The rune colossus can be infinitely regenerated. As long as an assassin sneaks in and destroys the runes, it will collapse on its own. Once it falls into a large-scale ritual trap, even if the number of people exceeds the opponent several times, it may be destroyed instantly...

After the fall of the Supreme Heaven, "war" became this concept in an instant.

It doesn't matter whether it's a land-breaking war or Star Antimony annexing other countries. Or the original Cruel Autumn, or the current Avalon air raid on the Star Antimony capital, were all battles in which "the two sides almost did not fight at all". On the contrary, the Narcissus Principality's rebellion is relatively closer to what "war" should be like - it is a battle of life and death.

And including the subsequent civil wars such as the Theocracy's separatism and the Star Antimony split... they basically followed this style of play in which the two sides pulled each other against each other.

But if the "warrior" profession appears again, the situation will be completely different.

Warriors are a profession born for the battlefield. The overwhelming survivability and comprehensive quality, as well as the versatility that is effective on any battlefield, will directly change the war situation... and then change the future of the entire world.

——The most obvious thing is that Avalon and Black Hawk will become much stronger in an instant.

Star Antimony and Narcissus are essentially spellcaster countries, while Iris is the country of love and beauty, plus the adaptive path to control the underground world. It is difficult for them to hatch large numbers of warriors.

However, as Avalon is a descendant of knights, as well as the former Black Hawk Principality, which is rich in mercenaries, it is possible that the number of extraordinary people in the country will double instantly.

Not to mention other places - areas where frictions and wars often occur, there will be a lot of extraordinary people in an instant, and they will be upgraded to around the third energy level in a short time.

The entire world situation will change.

The future will completely turn in a direction that Aiwass cannot predict.

but……

"--I agree."

Aiwass nodded in response.

...That's the same thing, he is more willing to believe in the Lord of Scale Feathers than Huan Tiansi.

Professor Moriarty. Grandfather Jacob. Cardinal Loki.

These three people, who had their own thoughts and were hiding in the darkness, were finally able to get a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg in the dark night after Aiwass learned part of his identity.

Although they still couldn't figure out their details, under the interference of the three of them, Aiwass finally grasped the head of the knot!

Loki and Moriarty, who can know many secrets through the art of stargazing, and Jacob, who is suspected to be an apostle of the Huantian Division and summoned Aiwass to the lower world... They have been planning for too long. Even though Aiwass also has a partial understanding of this world, it is the memory given to Aiwass by Huantiansi after all.

That is the unwanted part cut off by Him!

If you want to defeat Huantiansi, you must break free from the prophet he gave. Just like the lamb will eventually run out of the sheepfold.

——And all he can do is flip the table.

Directly change the world, destroy everyone's plans, and bring everyone back to the same level as possible!

Here we will introduce another chess player - the Lord of Scales and Feathers.

As a destroyer of the chess game, Xiong Tiansi is an important part of his plan. Just like squeezing the juice out of Enyo, the Lord of Scale Feather also took a fancy to Xiong Tiansi's remaining strength.

Change the situation of the entire world... thereby destroying the future that has been determined.

"...Then let me make a nest."

Aiwass took a deep breath and said slowly: "If you can't kill the bear, then remove his limbs, peel off his skin, and deprive him to the point where it is inalienable..."

"Don't worry, you will have your share too."

The Lord of Scales and Feathers touched Aiwass' bloody chest lightly and whispered: "After all, I am...

"—The God of Light-Speed ​​Final Payments, the God of Generous Deals."

Avas was shocked.

...Wait, He heard it?

When the Lord of Scales and Feathers finished speaking, the whole world around him was shattered again.

Aiwass woke up in a daze and looked at Cardinal Cyril who was still sitting there.

"It seems that you are having a good conversation."

The old cardinal nodded with satisfaction: "Then there is only the last step left."

Aivas heard this and looked down.

I saw that the ouroboros-like ring on my chest disappeared without a trace - its edges shrank and turned into black thorns like scars, and cracks shaped like vertical eyes. And inside the crack turned into an emerald of extremely high quality. It looks like a jadeite stone that has been cracked open.

"Before we complete the last step, it's time to custom-make your clothes."

Cardinal Cyril smiled and asked: “What color do you like?

"I mean, your cardinal's uniform—what color do you think suits you better?"
