Undying Warlord

Chapter 456 Blessed Blade

Dilan terminated the use of his abilities to make sure that they wouldn't have a cooldown.

Simultaneously, he retreated to give the two powerful monsters a chance to mortally injure one another.

In order to ensure his own safety, he circulated mana through his eyes.

No sooner had he done that he was attacked by a bunch of Tier-2 and Tier-3 Kobolds. They hoped to be able to kill Dilan in the blink of an eye, only to fail miserably.

Dilan didn't use any other ability except his Green Magic to accelerate his speed. He pushed strong air currents toward the Kobolds to make sure that they would be slowed down while he was getting a backwind. It was possible for him to push forward and kill the Kobolds with swift movements.

Slashing the Cursed Dagger across the monster that was closest to him, he hauled up the dying monster with his other hand. Throwing the injured monster to the side, he blocked the other Kobolds' attacks with the body of their dying brethren.

They staggered back and fell on their butts, giving him a chance to counterattack. Dilan made use of every single opportunity, he thrust his dagger through the chest of one opponent before spinning around to kill another Kobold.

Within less than ten seconds, Dilan had killed all the Kobolds around him and his focus returned to the fighting powerhouses.

Dilan moved slowly in an attempt to collect the Kobolds' Essence crystals one after another and it worked out much better than he had expected. With five Essence crystals in his hand, Dilan could enhance the rank of one of his armor pieces quite a bit.

However, Dilan was not yet satisfied with the enhancements he had received. Unfortunately, it was not intelligent to use [Taunt] right now.

The ability that hailed from the Artifact of Traction was not something he could utilize right now, not until the two powerhouses were still in their berserk state, and able to keep using their unique abilities.

Dilan wanted to make sure that it wouldn't be possible for the Shapeshifting Kobold and the Troll Warrior to kill him. He was fully aware that he could enter a state where his Life force was at the bare minimum and most of his stats would cross 1000 Units.

With additional means such as his equipment's abilities, his special traits, and so on, it might not be impossible for him to fight one of the two powerhouses. This was great but it was not what Dilan was looking forward to.

His plan was simple but devilish and Dilan didn't intend to let any being be it a bipedal being or a monster take advantage of him or the current situation. Only he was allowed to do so!

Dilan knew that this was hypocritical but who was going to stop him? Nobody! He retreated further from the battlefield of the two powerhouses and allowed them to destroy the settlement of the Kobolds.

Meanwhile, Victoria, Kathrine, Yvonne and the two others had finally reached the Kobold settlement… or what was left of it.

Dilan appeared next to them and he began to smile.

"That is the degree of destruction you will face once the Hordes of Chaos and Destruction will arrive, or it might get worse, I have no idea," Dilan said with a shrug. He smiled lightly and allowed the others to imagine what would happen once the Hordes of Chaos and Destruction were to reach them.

"Do you think it might look even worse than…that?" Kathrine asked while pointing at the red and white flashes that clashed with one another every now and then. The Troll Warrior and the Shapeshifting Kobold were fighting with all their might and one could see blood and body parts being flung through the surrounding area every now and then.

Dilan could see that the Shapeshifting Kobold had already lost one arm because of a powerful strike of the Troll Warrior, while the Troll Warrior had encountered a similarly bad situation. More than ten deep claw gashes covered the deflated body of the Troll Warrior and each of them could be considered a serious and lethal injury.

"These two powerhouses are no problem anymore. They will die soon," Dilan answered rather calmly and he turned around after taking a deep breath.

'How about I take this first?' He asked himself and his devilish smile deepened as his gaze moved to the cut-off arm of the Shapeshifting Kobold.

It was trying to get to the arm with the additional claw.

However, Dilan didn't intend to allow the Shapeshifting Kobold to do something like that and neither did the Troll Warrior.

The Troll Warrior appeared in between the cut-off arm and the Shapeshifting Kobold, ready to face the monster head-on.

Both were already weakened but the Shapeshifting Kobold's strength was even lower because it had lost the additional power it had received due to the weapon that had fused with the shapeshifted Kobold.

Dilan activated [Switch] to reallocate some of his Stamina and Health to his Agility before he activated [Thunder Step], [Second Acceleration], [Master of Gravity], [Power Up], and [Mantle of Elements].

His Agility crossed 1000 Units, which was more than enough to reach the cut-off claw of the Shapeshifted Kobold. He grasped the additional claw, used as much force as possible to tear the additional claw out of the arm, just to end up activating [Blood Sacrifice] to increase his Strength and Agility.

'Should I step up my game and forcefully deprive myself of the Life force?' Dilan wondered but did no such thing as he felt holy power surging through his left arm.

"That is it?!" Dilan exclaimed and it was no sooner that both the Shapeshifting Kobold and the Troll Warrior turned around to Dilan.

They roared out at the same time but Dilan didn't pay any attention to them as he grasped the white dagger tightly. Several golden insignia appeared on the dagger, and a similar situation could be seen happening with the Cursed Dagger, Xealtron, as well.

[[Signav, the Blessed Blade] Tier-4, Blessed treasure

[+20% Strength], [+30% Stamina], [+20% Agility]

A Holy weapon forged in the Abyssal Flame of the Karikan and blessed by the power of the Sacred Sacrilem of Carilas.

The wielder's body is invigorated with holy power.

[Holy Light] increases the sharpness and endurance of the weapon according to the amount of mana inserted into the weapon.

Special Remark: The Weapon can only be wielded if the wielder has any kind of special constitution and a Legendary Occupation or above!]

Dilan could tell that the Blessed Blade, Signav, was amazing but he did not even ensure if his stats could increase that much anymore without injuring himself body gravely.

His Strength and Stamina were still fine but his Agility was already pretty high.

Nonetheless, Dilan accepted the power of the Blessed Blade and he allowed it to further increase his stats.

But what Dilan didn't realize was that he could use the Blessed Blade even though he had already one weapon equipped.

And then there was the obvious factor of the weapon being a Tier-4 Blessed treasure!

Dilan was oblivious to the fact that the Cursed Dagger had released some of its cursed power. The cursed power swept through his right arm, while holy power swept through his left arm.

Both powers seemed to encounter each other in his chest where they formed a Ying-Yang symbol that everyone could see clearly.

"Now I'm ready to rumble, bitches!"
