Seeing Land appear suddenly inside the hollow, all the disciples of the Pale Church were somewhat taken aback.

"What a speed!"

"The invaders are very strong, be careful!"

…"

A multitude of pallid cultists spoke in unison, simultaneously commanding all the surrounding undead to swarm toward Lu and Kong.

As a member of the Pale Covenant, controlling undead combat is an instinct.

However, the next moment, Lu Kong's body vanished from its place, crimson light flickering throughout the entire cavity.

In just two breaths, all the rushing undead were killed.

This speed was so fast that even all the members of the Pale Church present couldn't see it!

Among them are not a few high-ranking members of the Pale Order.

They have already begun to devise plans for their retreat.

After all, the strength displayed by Lu Kong is too great.

But Lu Kong didn't intend to let go of all the members of the Pale Sect.

He vanished again from where he stood.

After a few breaths, the entire hollow grew silent.

All members of the Pale Church are dead.

Green and blue orbs floated above the corpses littering the ground.

Lu Kong tidied up his belongings and began the most familiar infiltration process.

The monsters in the stronghold are all level 18 or higher, with some as high as level 20.

This is already the highest level, this kind of monster level, for level 13, is very oppressive.

Even with land and air attacks, the damage inflicted on this level of monster is not even half its normal amount. Additionally, the chance of a critical hit has also been significantly reduced.

But, even with less than half the damage, it would still be an instant kill for even high-level boss monsters.

The number of monsters in this underground base is slightly more than that of the previous Base No. 4.

And even the area was larger. The land and air forces cleared over ten channels, killing thousands of monsters.

Then, Lu Kong met the first boss-level lord.

That was in a room similar to a library.

The room was filled with many books. Near the door, a man with long gray-white hair sat in an armchair reading.

Librarian of the Book (High-Ranking Lord)

Level: 20

Life:

Attack: 1440

Introduction: Shi Qu is the high-ranking deacon of the second base camp of the Pale Church, and also the librarian. He is well-educated and highly respected by the followers of the Pale Church. He often teaches new recruits about the power of death.

This old man named Shi Qu wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and had a very refined and elegant demeanor.

I didn't know, thought he was a professor from some university.

However, the librarian of the Pale Congregation, despite appearing to be a kind old man on the surface, is actually someone with a deep understanding of death's power.

Lü Kong just opened the door, and Shi Qu immediately looked up.

He saw Lu Kong and gave a gentle smile: “Are you a new disciple Why aren’t you wearing the robes and bearing the mark”

Lu Kong was taken aback. He thought this guy mistook him for someone from the Pale Cult

Li Kong quickly reacted and said, "I'm here to find someone. Do you know where Ankos is"

Shi Qu frowned, glancing at Lu Kong with some puzzlement: "Lord Ankos Because it seems that Point 4 has encountered problems, he was called back to Point 1 by the Bishop. What did you want to find him for"

"Ding! Investigation Card: Karlach's Cleft Valley Mission Complete."

A system prompt sounded in Lu Kong's ear.

Lu Kong glanced at the mission, discovering that his investigation into the Kadar Rift had been completed.

I suppose so, the purpose of this task is to let him know Ankos's current whereabouts.

Before this, the creatures Lu Kong had encountered were mostly ordinary believers and unaware of Ankos's news.

This high-ranking official's position was relatively high, I didn't expect that he would actually know Ankos' whereabouts!

Ancos is no longer at this outpost, which left Lu Kong feeling a mix of disappointment and relief.

To his disappointment, Ankos was a being he knew all too well, already an emperor-tier monster.

If he could kill him, Lu Kong would have completed the Blood Hand Master's mission and be able to learn several powerful skills for free.

Thankfully, Ancos is only a Rank 2!

Even if it's just a breakthrough, it should be level 21, right

Even monsters at level 20 have such a significant level advantage over land and air units.

A level 21 monster would definitely have a greater level advantage against both land and air units.

Moreover, the opponent was still an emperor-level monster. Lu Kong didn't have much confidence that he could kill Ankos.

Given the circumstances, since Ankos is wanted, it's likely he will flee.

If we can't kill him this time, finding him again next time will be a huge hassle.

Now that they knew Anke's whereabouts and hadn't been discovered by him, it was a result Lu Kong could accept.

LUKONG asked curiously, “Where is Point One”

Upon hearing this, Shi Qu was startled. He suddenly stood up, his kind face turning cold: "You are not from the sect! Ordinary disciples would not ask about the location of Point One, and high-ranking members of the sect would already know its location! How did you get here!"

Now that Lükong's been exposed, there's no point in pretending anymore.

Lu Kong smiled and said, "Well, I'm not from the Pale Sect. As for how I got here, of course, I walked."

As soon as he heard the song, Lu Kong's meaning became clear. The alarm hadn't even sounded, apparently because he had killed his way through it.

This young human in front of me, their strength is probably very strong!

Knowing the power of this enemy, I didn't dare to be careless. I immediately used my strongest defensive spell, and layers of bone armor appeared around me.

Then his staff whirled, one by one summoning spectral minions.

However, the next moment, a scarlet sword glow swept across.

The skeletal armor shattered under the blade's glow, and a large amount of damage floated out from the top of Shi Qu's head.

!

(Damage)

The severe injury caused Shi Qu's entire body to be wracked with pain, as if he had been cut in half.

What scared him the most was that this injury was too extreme!

After the land and air attack, he saw the information about land and air.

Level 13!

A level 13 player beating a level 20 player, dealing millions of damage in one hit!

He almost took him out in one hit!

Some people find it difficult to accept certain types of music.

Before he could retaliate, another sword light flashed.

(Thunderclap)

A massive amount of damage erupted from the top of Shi Qu's head, instantly emptying his already meager health bar.

It was still hard to believe, staring wide-eyed at Lu Kong.

"No... How could this be!"

Then he looked with difficulty in one direction, muttering: "Anna..."

In a hushed whisper, he collapsed heavily to the ground.

Lukong looked at Shi Qu's corpse, but his expression was not quite satisfied.

Just an high-ranking lord, and it takes two skills to kill him.

Is this the effect of level suppression

As expected, you're amazing!

You need to know that before, Lu Kong completely crushed low-level high-ranking lords!

After one blow, the opponent still owed Lu Kong quite a bit of blood.

I didn't expect that now even defeating a high-level boss would require using two of my highest damage skills.

Lu Kong shook his head and didn't think about it anymore.

Four golden orbs floated above the corpse on the ground.

All loot dropped by High-Tier Lords is epic.

There's even a unique item in there!

I was still a little curious about this only item that just fell from the list, even though it wasn't much.

The only unsent letter home: This is a letter written by Shi Qu to his daughter, which he never had the courage to send.Empire and Lionheart Kingdom have suffered heavy losses. The Barren Empire lost as many as twenty-three rookie villages, and the Lionheart Kingdom was about the same number. The rookie villages they...
