Chapter 370 A Ball of Fluff

"Fuck, what's going on again?"

"What happened?"

"It seems that the Shadow God split, and one became hundreds of thousands!"

"So scary?"

...

The forum was noisy, and a group of spectators who could not see the front-line battle reports kept asking questions, but unfortunately no one had time to give them detailed answers.

At this time, the situation on the front line of Dawn City was completely chaotic, and countless shadow ghosts landed in the dense player formation. Although the size of the shadow ghosts was much smaller than that of the Shadow God, they were still giants for the players!

These shadow ghosts also had no wisdom, only knew how to kill, and did not pick targets. They would attack anyone around them. Under the amazing destructive power, a large number of low-level players died instantly.

[Ghost Captain: Calm down! This is another ability of the Shadow God, the 'Shadow Legion', which automatically activates the self-rescue ability when only 10% is left. The main body is transformed into a large number of shadow ghost clones. More than 50% of the shadow ghost clones must be killed before the Shadow God will gather again. Attention, these shadow ghosts do not have the effect of God's Bite, so they no longer need to maintain the attack every ten seconds. All members can fire at will! 】

In the chaos, Mu You's city lord message appeared in front of everyone in time.

In fact, the strength of these shadow ghosts is uneven. The strongest shadow ghost has reached the epic level, and the weakest is less than the level of a wild monster of level 20, which is far less powerful than their size looks.

The reason why the players are in chaos is mainly because they appeared too suddenly. Most players were not prepared, and they still maintained the habit of fighting the shadow god before, counting the time with a stopwatch, and dared to attack once every ten seconds. Such a powerful enemy suddenly split into countless, which naturally makes people lose their sense of proportion.

At this time, with Mu You's reminder, everyone reacted: Yes, although the number has increased, they have lost the two most troublesome abilities of God's Bite and God's Defense, so what's there to be afraid of?

Only a few hundred thousand, they have tens of millions of people!

"Finally, we don't have to be so cautious every few seconds. Brothers, fire as much as you can!"

"Damn, I still can't hold on. This thing has such high damage. I died twice!"

"Those with low levels should retreat, and those with high health should go to the front. Just kill half of the shadow ghosts. Come on, everyone, victory is ahead!"

"Don't give blind orders. Where should we retreat if we are crowded? The more we hide, the faster we die. It's better to stay where we are and output!"

"That's right. Fire with all your strength. The faster we kill, the fewer people will die. Those who can't hold on can go offline first!"

...

In the chaos at the scene, many people were accidentally injured, but fortunately, there were enough players. Relying on the overwhelming firepower, they still eliminated the shadow ghosts one by one, and the number of shadow ghosts at the scene became fewer and fewer.

As I said, a boss who has mastered the rules is destined to pose no threat.

After a few minutes, the number of shadow ghosts finally fell below half.

The remaining shadow ghosts at the scene turned into black smoke, flew towards the Shadow God, and merged into the Shadow God's body.

The mini Shadow God quickly recovered to its original size and roared to the sky, but the roar was obviously much weaker than before. It was still firmly locked in place by the Octopus King, and its health was only 6% left!

As soon as the Shadow God returned to its original state, someone in the forum immediately sent a reminder.

A large number of players went online again, gathered around the Shadow God, and started attacking again.

At this time, the Shadow God's health bar was only the last small part visible to the naked eye. When they thought that the event was about to end and there would be no such high-yield monster-killing opportunities, everyone subconsciously used various attacks at the bottom of the box, and the speed of Shadow God's health decline was faster than before.

Many people even secretly hoped that the Shadow God could have another ability like the Hammer of God to brush back the blood and let them brush for a while, but they could only think about it in their hearts. If they said it out loud, they would definitely be scolded. After all, although the rewards were tempting, the oppression brought by the previous continuous group wipes and various variables was really frightening. At this moment, more people still hoped to solve this unstable trouble as soon as possible.

Mu You was also keeping an eye on Shadow God's health. Just now, God's Hammer came at 11.3%. According to the previous rules, it will come again at 1.3%. However, he was not sure whether the health lost by transforming into Shadow Legion in the middle was counted in 10%. If not, then theoretically there would be no more God's Hammer until the end.

Shadow God's health was declining rapidly, falling below 1.5% at a speed visible to the naked eye. Mu You hesitated for a moment, and finally did not send a message to ask everyone to log off.

Because there was more than half an hour left in the two-hour time limit, even if God's Hammer came again, they would have enough time to finish the remaining life and even brush one more round to increase some benefits as much as possible.

So Mu You finally chose to stay put, and everyone continued to output silently without saying anything.

As a result, the imagined God's Hammer was not triggered, and Shadow God's life fell steadily to the 1.3% node.

"It's over?"

Mu You raised his eyebrows. Perhaps the Hammer of God would explode once more before he was about to die. But even so, Shadow God should not be able to struggle. Next, he had to prepare and try to grab the last blow.

When a true god dies, the last blow will most likely have an extra reward. With the pocket watch in hand, he must not let go of such an opportunity.

Seeing that Shadow God's life continued to decline and had fallen below the last 100 million, Mu You secretly held his pocket watch, held the cannon in his hand, stopped attacking, and began to continuously accumulate power, waiting for the last blast.

This last blow was fought over by tens of millions of people, and it was not so easy to get it. Mu You had already prepared to go back many times.

However, seeing Shadow God's life rushing towards zero, Mu You felt a little uneasy.

Shadow God, will he really be killed by them so honestly?

After hesitating for a while, Mu You stopped accumulating power a few seconds before Shadow God's life returned to zero, fired this cannon in advance, and then used the city lord's authority to teleport back to the city lord's castle far enough behind.

He planned to see what would happen to Shadow God next. If he was really killed directly, he would go back and continue to attack.

About six seconds after Mu You appeared in the city lord's castle, Shadow God's life in the distance finally came to an end.

However, the Shadow God did not die immediately. Instead, at the moment of death, he suddenly exploded again, broke free from the shackles of the Octopus King, and let out a sharp whine.

Along with this whine, the Shadow God exploded all over, and countless human-shaped shadows emerged from it, tall, short, fat, thin, male, female, old, and young, all kinds of people, shot out in all directions.

The Octopus King in the back suddenly let out a miserable wail, and countless wounds suddenly broke out all over his body. He fell down to the city behind him and died in mid-air. The huge octopus corpse quickly disappeared in mid-air.

Even the Octopus King died, let alone others. Under the impact of the shadow group, all the lives around him exploded into blood mist and dissipated completely.

Moreover, no one was resurrected afterwards!

Mu You's eyelids jumped, and he hurriedly pressed the pocket watch and returned to ten seconds ago.

His premonition was right. Shadow God did something weird again in the end. However, this time it was no longer a blood-sucking attack like the Hammer of God that would only cause it to die slowly. Instead, it was an effective means of saving life in a truly endangered moment.

[Shadow's Last Song: When Shadow God is in danger of death, he burns out all his strength, spits out all the shadows he swallowed before, and attacks all the lives around him, causing huge damage. The closer to Shadow God and the larger the creature, the more shadows it will be hit by. Creatures killed by Shadow's Last Song will have their resurrection time increased by 1 day. ]

Shadow's Last Song is a means of mutual destruction at the last moment. Shadow God would rather burn all his strength just to save his life, and the effect is immediate. Even the Octopus King was killed instantly, which shows how powerful this move is!

But what is really important about this move is not the power, but the effect of adding one day to the resurrection time.

After the move breaks out, all those who are killed instantly cannot be resurrected within the next day. The Octopus King is essentially a wild monster, and it takes more than a week to be resurrected. Now no one can chase Shadow God anymore, and it naturally has enough time to escape.

Mu You heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he teleported back to the City Lord's Castle in advance and was not affected. Otherwise, he would not even have the chance to press the watch. This time, he would have to watch the Shadow God escape.

As time passed, Mu You reappeared on the battlefield, immediately put away the cannon, turned his head and looked at Lin Xue beside him: "Quick, retreat to the City Lord's Castle!"

There were only a few seconds. Even if he sent a message to others, through the text perspective of the game, it was too late to react. The only person he could save now was Lin Xue, who was here like him.

Lin Xue was stunned when she heard this, but she didn't ask any more questions. When she saw that Mu You had disappeared, she subconsciously put away her weapon and followed him back to the City Lord's Castle.

And almost as soon as she teleported back to the City Lord's Castle and passed through the gate of the City Lord's Castle, the two saw that the Shadow God had begun to explode in the distance, followed by densely packed shadows spraying out of the sky, accompanied by the wailing of the Octopus King, and everyone on the spot disappeared without a trace.

After the explosion, the human-shaped shadows that were spewed out also quickly lost their power and broke away from the Sky City in all directions, flying towards the thousands of households in the Cook Islands below, automatically finding their original owners.

Soon, screams came from the Cook Islands. Those who had lost their shadows for many years were surprised to find that their shadows suddenly returned behind them, and they cried with joy.

In Dawn City, after the Shadow Song erupted, the Shadow God, which was nearly a thousand meters high, was left with only a black shadow of more than ten meters high. It was not stable to stand, and fell to the ground with a plop, shaking all over, obviously extremely weak.

After destroying all the enemies, the Shadow God did not dare to stay at all. He hurriedly climbed the ground with his claws and crawled towards the edge of the city with great effort.

A human figure suddenly jumped out of the Shadow God's body and landed on the edge of the Sky City hundreds of meters in front of it.

This man was a gray-haired old man. After landing, he looked back at the Shadow God and stretched out his hand to do something, but suddenly felt the movement behind him. He did not dare to stay anymore, and quickly jumped off the Sky City and disappeared into the night.

As the other party left, Mu You and Lin Xue quietly appeared behind the Shadow God.

"That man escaped!" Lin Xue said.

"Don't worry about him, get rid of this thing first!"

Mu You didn't care. Of course, the person behind the scenes was the one who jumped off the city just now, but this guy has no shadow, so he can only stay in the Cook Islands if he escapes, so he won't be found.

At this time, Mu You has picked up the cannon again, and after a little accumulation of power, he directly activated the cannon.

The life of the Shadow God in front is only the last two digits.

Feeling the fatal threat coming from behind, the climbing Shadow God turned back, with a trace of unwillingness and fear in his eyes.

However, at this time, it had completely lost the power to resist, and the next moment, it was swallowed up by the dazzling light of the cannon.

[You killed the Shadow of the Shadow God, gained 1 point of divine power, and obtained the advanced title ‘God Killer’. 】

[God Killer: Obtained after killing any god. When wearing this title, your damage to divine creatures is increased by 100%, damage from gods is reduced by 50%, and you are immune to the effects of God's Bite. When you die in battle with a god, you will not suffer an experience penalty. 】

[You have obtained the Soul Crystal*1. 】

[Soul Crystal: The pure soul left behind after the complete death of a god. It is condensed into a crystal ball. After being swallowed, it increases the power of the god by 10 points and helps break through the evolutionary bottleneck of level 30. It is invalid when swallowed below level 30. 】

"Breaking through the level 30 bottleneck?"

Mu You raised his eyebrows.

No wonder level 30 is the limit in the star spirit world. The bottleneck at level 30 no longer requires evolution potions, but the crystals that can be left behind after the death of gods.

The existence of this thing proves that the upper limit of the number of gods is actually fixed. Every time a god dies, a new god can appear.

In addition, there is a new title, God Killer, which increases damage by 100% and reduces damage by 50%. The effect is equivalent to the level suppression of an evolution, but it only takes effect on divine creatures.

"Gone?"

Mu You carefully looked at the prompts in his mind and found that there were indeed no more. The reward for killing the god was less than expected.

Just as he was thinking about it, Mu You suddenly looked forward.

At the place where the Shadow God died, after the Shadow God dissipated, a black velvet-like object was left on the spot, the size of a basketball, bouncing on the ground like a ball of hair. The front of the ball had eyes, mouth, and nose. .

After the black fur ball bounced in place a few times, it glanced around like a newborn animal, and finally jumped towards the two of them.

First, he jumped to Lin Xue who was closer, but before it could get closer, a small shadow of Death suddenly appeared on Lin Xue's body. The shadow raised its right hand and slapped the bouncing fur ball away. When he came out, he opened and closed his mouth, seeming to be cursing and looking extremely disgusted.

The fur ball bounced on the ground for more than ten times before it stopped. It looked like stars and made him vomit. It took a long time to recover. He looked at this side aggrievedly, with a layer of mist in his eyes. He looked around, and then He jumped towards Mu You, but he was careful along the way, as if he was afraid that something would come out of him and knock him away again.

Fortunately, Mu You stood still and watched silently as the little guy jumped up and down behind him.

After realizing that he was not abandoned, the black fur ball happily jumped into Mu You's shadow, but it was like jumping into water, causing ripples on the shadow, blending directly into it, and disappeared on the ground.

Mu You touched his chin. He didn't stop him because he had already seen the other party's message when the little guy came over.

[Shadow Pom Pom: Level 0, the initial form of the Shadow God's Shadow, has no attack ability, low intelligence, and needs to rely on a living body to exist. It can gradually evolve by swallowing other people's shadows, and can swallow up to one shadow per day. Current abilities: Swallow Shadow, Shadow Transfer, Between Shadows, Shadow Binding, Shadow Ghost Purification. 】

[The shadow pompom chooses to be your shadow, is it a contract? Note: After the contract, unless you actively abandon the other party, the shadow pom-pom cannot change its dependents on its own. 】
