Chapter 413 The Birth of the Strongest Player!

"Ahem.

Suddenly, Emiya coughed out streaks of blood from his throat.

However, this blood was not the normal red, but dyed a deep black.

"Haha... It seems that using this kind of sword will indeed cost me a lot!"

Emiya looked at the black blood on his hands and a self-deprecating smile appeared on his lips.

Click! Click!

At this moment, the lotus border began to be broken inch by inch.

Within the Lotus Sword Formation, the skinny old man's body was struggling out bit by bit.

Waves of deathly energy erupted from his sunken pupils.

However, the blade of the bone sword had begun to shatter.

Just like nothing can withstand the decay of time, it will eventually disappear.

"What a terrible guy!"

"Even the Ten Thousand Flowers Sword Formation can't trap the sword in your hand..."

Emiya's pupils reflected the deep darkness, but in the center of the darkness, the bone sword seemed to become clearer. Gradually, the darkness spread to the outermost edge of the pupils, as if only this bone sword was left. The sword remained in his consciousness.

The next second, extremely majestic data appeared in Emiya's pupils.

This torrent of data came from all directions and completely submerged the bone sword.

It was as if he wanted to use his mortal body to glimpse the sword controlled by the gods.

Boom! ! !

Suddenly, a terrifying wave of energy erupted from Emiya's body, and his whole body glowed with that faint blue light.

At this moment, the sword in his hand disappeared.

But another, even brighter light slowly condensed on his right hand.

A brand new sword gradually condenses in an illusory form...

However, the light surrounding this sword is dim gray, as if there will never be a day when the condensation is completed...

Puff puff!

The blood vessels all over Emiya's body began to burst open.

Black blood spurted out from various parts of his body...

But there was no fluctuation in that stern face.

He slowly raised his head, staring at the figure of the skinny old man with sharp and firm eyes like an eagle... No, to be precise, it should be the sword in his hand.

At this moment, in Emiya's eyes, it seemed as if there was only that sword left in the world, everything else had disappeared, and only this sword remained forever.

"I forged this sword from bones..."

A low chant came from his mouth.

The next second...

In the ultimate light, the gray light seemed to be injected with a new vitality, suddenly bursting out with magical brilliance.

In an instant, countless light particles, carrying the calls of people from the past, seemed to be injected into the bone sword at the same time, helping him to forge the sword.

The brilliance overflowed, and the ultimate light burst out, carrying terrifying energy, turning into a strong wind, setting off huge waves thousands of feet high on the surface of the sea of ​​dead bodies.

When the huge wave of bones gradually fades away...

There is already an extra sword in Emiya's hand!

The second bone sword!

The bone sword was exactly the same as the bone sword in the hand of the skinny old man.

However, this bone sword is no longer illusory, and there are no longer even cracks.

The hand holding the sword hilt has suddenly turned into withered bones...

Looking up, the master holding the sword hilt has transformed from a young man in his prime into an old man with silver hair.

It's hard to imagine... Emiya, who looked like he was only in his early twenties before, has now become so old in the blink of an eye.

He was like an old man in his old age, mechanically waving the sword light in his hand.

Cutting towards the skinny old man...

This sword is weak and weak, and it is swung so slowly that some old ladies over eighty years old may not be able to stand it...

But with just such a sword, when it was swung out, the entire surrounding space and time seemed to have stopped.

Buzz! !

Buzz! !

The gray light that spread like water waves covered the skinny old man's body.

The flame reflected in the skinny old man's pupils was completely extinguished as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on it.

The pupils gradually become darker, and then they become empty...

Finally, it lost all its vitality and returned to that pile of bones again.

Click! Click!

A subtle cracking sound came from the bone sword in the hand of the skinny old man.

The bone sword seemed to have reached its limit and completely shattered.

Along with the whole body of the skinny old man, it slowly withered and decayed like a dead tree...

Finally, the three items erupted into extremely bright glass brilliance and appeared in front of Emiya's eyes.

One is a finger bone, another is a gray seed, and the third is a relic.

The relic reflected Emiya's eyes like a reflection of the vast ocean.

Boom! ! !

The next second, the relic suddenly turned into a stream of light and escaped into Emiya's body...

At this moment, his entire skeleton seemed to be merging with the relic, undergoing amazing changes!

His body originally wanted to wither and decay like the skinny old man.

However, when the relic escaped into his body, a brand new vitality stirred up an ocean from Emiya's body.

At that moment, Emiya's body seemed to reflect a golden ocean. Every drop of seawater gave new life force, reshaping every inch of his skin, every inch of his bones, and every cell.

Emiya's eyes suddenly opened. At this moment, he felt that his life level had not only been transformed...

Even the "price" that he had to pay for "activation" before was written off?

The old face seemed to have been re-injected with water and regained vitality.

The skin became young again.

The hand holding the bone sword grew new flesh and skin.

And the blood was a normal red, not the dark black before.

At this moment, the momentum bursting out of Emiya was captured by a pair of eyes in the distance.

"Advanced to the fifth level?"

At this moment, Chen Ye saw the miracle that happened to Emiya from a distance through Yuxian's eyes.

There was a little more shock in his eyes.

Who would have thought...Emiya actually had the special ability to deal with the skinny old man!

And, with this characteristic, he actually succeeded in surviving a desperate situation!

Successfully reborn and achieved transformation!

Originally, after continuously using characteristics that exceeded his own status, Emiya's vitality was already very weak.

Especially when he used that method to replicate the bone sword of the skinny old man, he overdrew the last bit of vitality and was about to die.

However, it was the bone sword that took away the skinny old man with the characteristic of [time].

That's right!

The only thing that can deal with time is time.

Those who control time must exchange the same amount of time at the cost of time.

Therefore, even if the skinny old man is a product of taboo, he is also consuming time all the time to take these players away.

However... the reason why the skinny old man can hold on for so long is that when he killed the players before, the benefit of using [time] every time was greater than the consumption.

If the time used to swing the bone sword once can harvest more dead souls, it can increase the time it stays, achieving a superposition effect.

... This is also a manifestation of the skinny old man seeking benefits and avoiding harm.

The reason why it harvests players here is not just as simple as a killing machine, but because when a sword strikes, the gain in the number of dead souls can add more time for itself to stay in this world, which is a profit for it.

To put it bluntly, as long as you swing a sword and use [time] once, as long as the number of dead souls harvested exceeds a certain number, the life of the skinny old man will be extended.

On the contrary, it will be consumed.

At the beginning, the players of the "Avengers Alliance" did not understand the characteristics of the skinny old man and gathered together. In this case, the number of dead souls is far greater than the "cost", so every time the bone sword is swung, the life of the skinny old man is increased.

But later, the players saw the trajectory of the skinny old man's actions and dispersed. The benefits of swinging the bone sword once were greatly reduced, and there might even be losses...

So, the skinny old man became more impatient and angry.

However, if it wants to prolong its life, there is no more direct way than harvesting dead souls.

If the dead souls were not harvested, the skinny old man would have died long ago in the dimension of [Time]. Without the dead souls to continue its nutrition, it would die even faster than expected.

So, even if it was at a loss, the skinny old man had to swing the bone sword and kill the players.

Under the influence of seeking profit and avoiding harm, although there was a loss, the loss was less, which was also a kind of "profit" to some extent.

Therefore, no matter what, the skinny old man would kill the "active" existence around him.

This is also the reason why it is a taboo...

Its characteristic status is too high, and as an [Undead], there is no threat to it at all for the current players.

Including Emiya.

But why did Emiya successfully kill the skinny old man and explode the characteristic items from this terrible taboo?

The reason is very simple!

Emiya also projected a sword that did not belong to his status.

This sword happened to be the bone sword in the skinny old man's hand.

As long as he pays the price of his life, as an [Infinite Swordsman], he can project any sword below the authority of God, including the bone sword with the [Time] attribute.

This bone sword has not yet reached the level of true God's authority, at best it is just a fake.

If used too much, it will still break.

Although it is a one-time sword, it is enough for Emiya.

As long as he has seen it, seen it, and is willing to pay his life for it, he can project any sword in the world, even if this sword only exists in history and legends.

However, as long as he follows the chips of equivalent exchange, everything is possible.

The only thing that can deal with time is time.

The skinny old man is not afraid of anything, but the only thing he fears most is time.

Therefore, Emiya projected the same bone sword in his hand, which is exactly the most restrained prop in the world, without a single one.

Simply wave it, without any excessive exertion, the skinny old man is automatically taken away by time.

The time left was not much...

So, all it needed to do was use the [Time] feature to quietly take away a little bit, even if it was just a little bit, and it would be over.

One of the special items that exploded happened to be able to merge with Emiya's profession and advance to the fifth level!

Emiya's previous status was completely insufficient to support the explosion of this feature...

But after being promoted to the fifth level and obtaining a new profession, all the costs were offset.

He sacrificed his body, but every time a player's major occupation is promoted, the structure of the entire body will undergo a nirvana-like rebirth. From this point of view, although the cost is not completely offset, the injuries caused are instantly restored!

This is no different from resurrection!

At this moment, Chen Ye used the talent of [Blood Word Research] to observe the occupation information box floating above Emiya's head...

Compared with the [Infinite Swordsman] at the beginning, now his occupation has been changed to a more honorable name -

[Infinite Sword Master]

Don't look at the difference between Swordsman and Sword Master, there is only one word difference, but the difference in authority symbolized is as big as that between Knight and Earl. The two are not at the same level in status, and the characteristics they possess are completely different.

"I didn't expect Emiya to be promoted to the fifth level... It seems that the players with the highest occupation now are afraid to change!"

Chen Ye took a deep breath and said to himself.

Originally, the highest-level players in this city were, as expected, Dawn and Dark Night. This group of players, who were backed by top forces, had rich sources of resources, and were not short of promotion items, reached the peak when they reached the fourth level.

But now, Emiya has completely broken this rule.

His identity is no longer the leader of the "Justice League" before. To be precise, he is just a casual player. Even the previous "Avengers Alliance" is actually no different from the mob. It is just a temporary formation of players who have a grudge against the mob and temporarily follow Emiya's progress, but he will not be responsible for these members, and there is no contract related to the guild to bind the relationship between each other.

To put it bluntly, Emiya is now a casual player.

But such a casual player has reached the fifth level in a miraculous way!

It's unimaginable!

At this moment, Chen Ye saw the golden star on Emiya's head, which became brighter!

"So... is this his destiny?"

Chen Ye stared at the golden star and muttered to himself.

It seems...

Players with such aura of luck are not ordinary people!

There will definitely be a day of explosion.

In addition to himself, Chenxi and Baichen also have similar golden stars.

But they don't seem to have ushered in their own explosion period like Emiya.

As for Chen Ye, he had already topped the list last month, but his golden star is still slowly getting brighter, and it seems that its potential has not been fully exhausted.

At this moment, Chen Ye saw that one of the three items was emitting a dazzling glass light, which was actually connected to his own luck aura.
