Chapter 124 Hero's Exclusive Skill - Miracle
Early in the morning, Diana got up on time, and by then she should have just finished making breakfast.
Isia had been awake for a while, but she didn't want to get up. After the mental healing she received last night, she felt much better now.
Diana pinched Elua's cheek, which was lying on top of her.
"Xiaoya, get up! If you don't get up, I'm going to eat your breakfast!"
Elua opened her eyes instantly.
'This trick still works as well as ever when dealing with foodies!'
The little white cat on the bedside table looked at him with disdain.
After helping Isia change her clothes, the group went to have breakfast.
After breakfast, everyone went to school. Diana then planned to make a trip to the elven lands to get some more Water of Life, which would be nice to drink and play with occasionally.
After bringing Icia to Candice, he explained things to Icia for a long time before finally agreeing to let her leave.
Candice looked at Isia, who was standing there in a daze, and, seeing that she was still worried about her brother, went over and led her to a chair.
"Don't worry, your brother is a hero. Even if he's in danger, Anna will save him!"
Isia nodded. If Candice hadn't mentioned it, she'd almost forgotten about her brother. With Diana around, she wasn't worried about him at all. All she wanted now was for Diana to come back soon.
After Diana left, she did not go directly to the Elven lands because Candice was worried about Enoch's safety and wanted her to go and check on him.
Diana readily agreed; it wasn't a troublesome matter, as she had already marked the hero.
After activating the reconnaissance, Diana teleported to the outer city. There seemed to be far fewer people in the outer city, with only a few scattered individuals on the streets.
Diana flew over the outer city, heading towards the red dot that indicated the hero. There were quite a few red dots in that area, a dense, overlapping mass.
In an open space in a church in the outer city, Enoch was surrounded by a row of cultists holding shields. All the shields were shrouded in a layer of golden light, and every time he slashed at them, he was deflected and suffered the corresponding backlash.
'Damn it! We've fallen into a trap!'
Enoch was able to wipe out four churches in the inner city last night, completely by surprise. Although each bishop was only level 30, some of their skills were still very powerful.
With the combined efforts of several bishops and some prior preparation, Enoch still struggled to cope on his own. Although the Holy Sword provided a continuous supply of stamina, his health and mana were limited.
He's injured now, a result of the bishops' desperate counterattack. Although he looks somewhat disheveled, he can still manage to leave if he wants to.
On the outermost edge of the encirclement, the five bishops all stared at Enoch in the center. One of the slightly overweight bishops sneered:
"So this is what a hero is all about! He can't even break my shield parry!"
"What's there to be proud of? He's just run out of magic. If he could still use his skills, could you have trapped him?"
"What kind of time is this to be arguing about things that are beyond dispute! What is the Saintess's attitude?"
Both of them shut up.
The other person shuddered as he recalled the scene after he went to see the saintess and told her the situation. The saintess always seemed indifferent to everything, and this was the first time he had ever seen her like that.
Although her face was not visible, the terrifying aura emanating from her sent chills down one's spine.
"The Holy Maiden said, kill the hero and find the next successor!"
The group exchanged glances. Killing the hero was tantamount to crippling humanity! When the Demon King's army attacked, who would stand in their way?
But it seems we don't need to worry about that now. Judging from the hero's posture, he's clearly determined to fight the church to the death.
The group nodded and simultaneously unleashed a variety of skills at the hero.
"The hero has betrayed humanity! Whoever kills the hero will be promoted to bishop!"
Greed instantly gleamed in the eyes of the surrounding believers; this meant a direct promotion to bishop!
Those with long-range attack methods were deployed, and some armed individuals also rushed forward.
Enoch was still considering whether to retreat first, but this sudden change in the offensive made him make a decision instantly: if he didn't leave now, he would miss his chance.
The holy sword in his hand suddenly burst into white light and rushed in one direction. He gripped the hilt with both hands and slashed horizontally. The holy sword left a trail of afterimages. The shield shrouded in golden light only lasted for a moment before it was cut in two along with the person behind him.
Although Enoch's hands were bleeding profusely from the force of the impact, he took the opportunity to break out of the shield's encirclement and swept through the crowd. A holy arrow struck him in the back and exploded.
Enoch was blown away, and the surrounding cultists rushed forward with weapons in hand.
At this crucial moment, Enoch's aura suddenly surged, and he actually leveled up. Although he couldn't level up like Diana and return to his peak condition, he did increase his various attributes and had a lot more magic power.
The hero has a unique skill called Miracle, which automatically activates whenever life or death is at stake, always managing to escape predicaments by utilizing various factors!
Enoch used the extra magic to activate his skill, accelerating the flow of water.
In an instant, all his movements became extremely fast. He darted through the crowd, leaving a blank space in his wake, littered with corpses.
"Damn it! Wasn't he out of magic?!"
"If we let the hero escape, none of us will survive!"
Several bishops gave chase, but how could they possibly catch up with the hero now? Just as the hero was about to disappear from their sight, a cold voice rang out.
"waste!"
Immediately afterwards, a saintess in a white robe suddenly appeared in the sky above Enoch.
The goddess raised her slender finger, and a golden greatsword materialized out of thin air. Then she pointed it at the swiftly moving Enoch.
"Be judged!"
The golden greatsword pierced down with terrifying pressure.
Enoch suddenly felt his movements slow down. A powerful force came from the sky. He looked up and saw a giant sword nearly ten meters long hurtling towards him. He knew he couldn't dodge it; the giant sword seemed to have locked onto him.
Enoch held the holy sword horizontally, assuming a blocking stance.
The moment the greatsword made contact with the holy sword, an immense force struck, shattering the ground beneath Enoch's feet. His body seemed unable to withstand the force, and his bulging blood vessels burst.
Enoch felt he was going to die, and images flashed through his mind, finally freezing on the image of Isia.
'Brother! Don't die!'
Enoch roared, blood streaming from all seven orifices.
"I can't die!"
Enoch's aura surged again, and he actually leveled up once more!
The downward momentum of the giant sword paused, and it actually stopped.
The saintess remained expressionless as her slender fingers slowly pressed down, causing the greatsword to tremble and move downwards.
Enoch knelt on one knee, gritting his teeth to support himself, a huge crater had already appeared beneath his feet.
'Hang in there! Xiaoya is waiting for me to come back!'
Just when he was about to exhaust himself, he seemed to see a pair of small hands supporting the holy sword for him.
