Chapter 556 - Even a Demigod Has to Dodge (2/2)

Their ashes then rolled forward along with the airwaves.

Wherever the airwaves reached, the sand on the ground was completely melted. Roland was absolutely unaffected.

With Elemental Embodiment, he found such an environment rather cozy. There was no longer any video in the stream channel.

The streaming had been cut off since the moment the Priest died.

When a player died, his streaming would be cut off. That was a rule set up by the authorities.

The terrifying red airwaves didn’t stop until they spread more than one kilometer.

The castle that was. .h.i.t vanished in the enormous ball of light.

A red mushroom cloud rose from the spot of the explosion. It was almost five kilometers tall.

The mushroom cloud was so bright that the whole desert was illuminated.

Also, it opened a huge hole in the thick clouds in the sky.

The sunlight came in through the hole and formed a slanted enormous pillar of golden light.

The system already sent out notifications.

“You have killed the target and completed the quest. EXP +11,235.”

“You have killed the Heavy-Armored Skeleton. After the redistribution of the team system, you’ve received…” “You have killed the Banshee. After the redistribution of the team system, you’ve received…”

“You have killed the Evil Claw…”

Almost a thousand notifications told Roland how much EXP he received. Those minions didn’t yield much EXP individually, but there were a lot of them.

Roland was too lazy to count the EXP he received. He simply glanced at the EXP bar.

More than eighty percent of the bar had been filled.

“Too bad I can’t loot any equipment.” Looking at the enormous round pit from which red lava was still flowing, Roland heaved a helpless sigh.

It was impossible for any equipment below the level of Epic to remain intact under such an explosion. The dark clouds gradually dispersed.

The other players approached from the resurrection point nearby.

In fact, they had already laid down a simple altar for the Life G.o.ddess before the battle.

Such portable altars were the inventions of certain deft players. They could be disa.s.sembled and a.s.sembled easily. Even a five-year-old could a.s.semble it in a minute.

The Priest then reopened the streaming system.

The viewers in the stream channel, looking at the mushroom cloud that hadn’t completely dispersed and the gigantic pit far away, were too shocked to say anything

Roland resumed his human form.

He asked the s.h.i.+eld Warrior, “How much EXP did you receive? Is it enough to make up for your loss?”. “It’s more than enough.” The s.h.i.+eld Warrior smiled. “Why don’t you check our level?”

“You set it to be invisible,” said Roland helplessly. That was actually a system function that could be turned on and off.

“Oh, I forgot.” Immediately, the s.h.i.+eld Warrior showed his level. He was already level ten, and the other three teammates rose from level eight to nine, which meant that the EXP they earned was much more than that they lost upon death.

“We’ve completed the quest. Should we get going?”

Roland was about to take some magic materials out of his system Backpack and draw a teleportation magic array.

But exactly at this moment, the round s.h.i.+eld hanging on his left hand moved upward on its own.

After a clink, Roland was forced to take a few steps back, and he almost fell on his knees.

In midair, a shadow was bounced back, and he regained his balance two seconds later.

It was the black angel. Now that the two parties were close, the players were finally able to see his face. He had short black hair and bright brown eyes. He was rather handsome.

He looked at Roland and the round s.h.i.+eld in his hand with grief. “She gave that to you? Why?”

Roland felt excruciating pain all over his body, and he didn’t have any strength left.

He quickly opened the system menu, only to discover that a lot of his organs were bleeding.

Although the enemy’s attack was blocked by the round s.h.i.+eld, the brunt was still too powerful for Roland to take.

Fortunately, his HP was very high. Any other players would’ve been killed by internal bleeding even though the round s.h.i.+eld helped block the attack.

The male angel, whose face was twisted in jealousy, slowly landed with a sword in his hand. “Also, you’re a nonbeliever. I’m going to kill you and hang your soul on the Wall of Nonbelievers, where you will suffer from the blow of the Nether Wind in eternal agony.” Roland cast a healing spell on himself.

Stunned for a moment, the other four players all stood before Roland. “You dare to stand in my way, ants?” The black angel sneered and raised his longsword that emitted black light. He was about to swing the sword, but then he suddenly retreated. A streak of green light descended from the sky and landed before Roland. White wings were unfolded and protected Roland and the others.

“Nia!”

The black angel seemed sad and exasperated.
