Chapter 354 Divine Assistance, Blade Of Judgment
The drums are getting louder and faster.
Every sound was accompanied by a bang, as if hammering an iron plate, hitting solid steel.
Li Ang frowned and thought for a moment, put the shield in his hand into the storage space, took out a pitch-black spear, and lightly poked it at the door frame.
A tiny crack appeared on the door frame, but it returned to its original shape after only blinking twice.
Li Ang raised his eyebrows slightly, and poked the door frame again, "Kang lang~"
The door cracked two gaps.
The door collapsed completely, revealing a wide corridor, at the end of which was a huge bronze bell.
Li Ang stepped in and walked into the bronze bell at the end of the corridor.
The bell resounded and echoed in the corridor for a long time.
Amidst the huge roar, the clock wall began to shake, and gusts of strong wind pressure blew head-on, making it difficult for people to breathe, their chests were stuffy, their legs were weak, and they almost fell to their knees.
Li Ang clenched the shield in his hand, looked up at the huge pendulum, his pupils shrank suddenly, "This..."
The pendulum is in the shape of a human face, with a strange grin on the corner of the mouth, and deep and dark eye sockets, with a scarlet light.
It seemed to be staring at Li Ang, but Li Ang couldn't see through the reality.
"Boom~~"
The pendulum swayed, making thunderous roars, and the scarlet eyes at the end of the pendulum were constantly trembling.
The pendulum swung violently, creating a circle of ripples, blowing away the surrounding ashes.
"Buzz~"
The cold black air surrounds the end of the pendulum, gradually converging into a vague black figure, walking slowly towards Li Ang.
"What is this?"
Li Ang's expression was serious, and he clenched his shield tightly.
The distorted black air got closer and closer, and finally turned into a naked male human with a hideous and terrifying face.
His muscles swelled and protruded, his arms stretched out, his joints creaked, and his feet bent to accumulate strength.
His skin was purple-black, covered with wrinkles, and there were pieces of scales all over his body.
Li Ang narrowed his eyes, "What are you?"
The man stood stiffly a few meters away without answering, but a hoarse growl sounded from the depths of his throat, the soil under his feet trembled and debris flew.
"Boom!"
The male corpse swooped over and punched Li Ang's chest.
"clang!!"
There was a crisp sound of metal impact, sparks splashed, and Li Ang took two steps back.
"Roar!"
The male corpse roared again and again, waving its arms, attacking fiercely, fists and feet intersecting, making a "ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping" sound.
Although the male corpse was tall and burly, and far superior to ordinary human soldiers in strength, it was still not enough for Li Ang.
A heavy and majestic voice came from the end of the corridor, vaguely mixed with some kind of rhythm.
The sound became more and more intense, as if some kind of alarm sounded.
The violent howling of the male corpse became louder and louder, and his body quickly rose and swelled, and in an instant, he turned into a huge black panther.
The panther opened its jaws wide, roared like a beast, and bit Li Ang hard.
"Hehe, it turned out to be just a black panther."
Li Ang sneered, raised his right arm horizontally, blocked the black panther's claws with his shield, and grabbed the mane of the tail.
"Whoa!"
The severe pain caused the panther to growl angrily and struggle with all his strength, but was held tightly by Li Ang, unable to move at all.
Li Ang dragged the black panther back several steps, and directly knocked him to the ground.
"Crack!"
He rode on the back of the black panther, picked up the shield with his left hand, and the short spear with his right hand, and stabbed towards the opponent's neck.
"Puchi~puchi~puchi!!!"
There were three sharp bangs, and the short spear pierced through the black panther's head, blood and brains gushing out.
Li Ang let go, jumped off the panther's back, and threw the spear away.
"Jingle Bell!"
The pendulum vibrated again, making a sharper sound.
The black panther's body twitched twice, and its lifeless body collapsed limply to the ground.
Li Ang raised his head and stared at the bronze clock with a trace of doubt on his brow.
This clock...why is it different from the one recorded in "Shan Hai Jing"?
Just as he was about to observe carefully, a low and melodious singing voice suddenly sounded in his ears, as if it came across infinite distance.
"...North of the South Sea of Darkness, beside the Yellow Springs, there lived a woman named Aphrodite.
Aphrodite is the goddess of beauty in The Netherworld. She has a peerless appearance, the sound of the piano, and the graceful singing.
Her singing is like the sound of heaven, which can revive the dead and bring them back to life; her singing can summon ghosts and extradite ghosts.
Aphrodite is the master of the underworld, the mother of all the undead, in charge of many ghosts.
Her singing can bring the dead back to life, and can also make the dead fall into Devil.
She is Ares, the god of death, the master of The Netherworld.
..."
The singing voice is ethereal, as if floating from a very far away place, but penetrated into Li Ang's ears extremely clearly.
He froze for a few seconds before he realized that this song was a mission song given by the system when he first traveled to this world. It was called Prayer on the Bridge of Helplessness, and was sung by "Death God Ares" himself.
Li Ang recalled the lyrics and muttered:
"Aphrodite..."
This melancholy and bleak tune is completely different from the sound of "Ares, the God of Death" in his impression.
"Reaper Ares..."
Li Ang frowned, feeling restless.
He always felt that he had heard this title somewhere, but he just couldn't remember what it meant.
Suddenly, out of the corner of Li Ang's eye, he caught a glimpse of a picture scroll hanging on the wall.
The painting has been decayed and broken, leaving only a few incomplete scrolls, and the outline of the upper part can be vaguely discerned.
The content of the picture is an old woman, wearing a silver-white armor, wearing a snow-white cloak, holding a black scepter in her arms, standing quietly by the altar, watching the battle scene below.
Li Ang focused his eyes on the scepter in the old woman's arms, and felt the extremely strong atmosphere of death, as well as a hint of indifferent sadness.
"I know who it is..." Li Ang's heart was beating wildly, and his breathing became short of breath.
The scepter held in the old woman's arms was the one used by Li Ang once—Holy Sword, Blade of Judgment!
Judgment Blade, in ancient Greek mythology, the artifact used by the allied forces of the gods to conquer the Underworld, is said to be the sword of the creator Poseidon.
Rumor has it that holding this sword can kill all evil.
Li Ang's eyes are firmly locked on the scepter in the picture scroll. This sword is made of unknown material. It is crystal clear and flows with a hazy glow.
This weapon is Li Ang's reward after obtaining the scepter, and it is also the only treasure he obtained from the gods, which is priceless.
He once tried to cultivate the scepter, but the scepter contains majestic and vast power, which requires a huge amount of Mental Energy, and Li Ang's mental strength is not enough to control it.
Therefore, Li Ang simply gave up practicing and switched to [Divine Art] for assistance.
Li Ang took a deep breath, held the short spear in his right hand, and with a sudden force, the spear point penetrated deeply into the black panther's abdomen, nailing it to the wall, and then took out a black stone slab from the storage ring, and pressed it on the spear shaft At the top, start to cast [Execution of the Dead].
