Chapter 354: Chapter 354

Du You felt like he had stumbled upon a treasure. Who would have thought that Xiaozi, instructed on a whim, would capture such a powerful parish priest. It had worked out extremely well.

Without Moyuer’s help, Du You alone might not have been able to achieve this with so much ease.

Once Moyuer completed the blockade, he waved his hand and a burst of light engulfed Du You, Xiaozi, and Xi Qianxue nearby, cloaking them in a layer of white light.

You have been blessed with Holy Light Descent, all your attacks will carry the effects of the holy light, and the power of your holy light magic has increased.

Upon seeing the notification on his panel, Du You became even more delighted. The power of his Holy Light Arrow had increased by at least thirty percent. This power increase was significant.

Xi Qianxue, who was initially deemed useless, also surprised Du You.

"Divine Ice Crystals." Holy light also erupted from Xi Qianxue.

Xi Qianxue, who originally didn’t pose any unique threat to the black giant, now had her ice crystals shining brightly under the halo. The effect of the Holy Light’s Descent alongside her radiance made her attacks even more formidable.

The rain of ice crystals from the sky was imbued with this power. Although it did not surpass the power of his Holy Light Array, its destructive force was not inferior to a single Holy Light Array without the Spell Splitting Skill.

Du You couldn’t figure out how Xi Qianxue achieved this, as such an effect would be impossible with a mere support magic skill alone. There must have been some special equipment bonus at play here.

He didn’t think about it further though, as he only had one Holy Light skill and that was to keep launching Holy Light Arrows towards the enemy. This move was also his main offense against the black giant. His burst of power alone was several times stronger than the combined strength of the other two.

Gradually, the black giant’s power was waning, and its struggle was weakening. It went from breaking a few chains of Holy Light in the beginning to not breaking any for three minutes.

Through his Spiritual Perception, Du You sensed the diminishing presence of the black giant. Its strength had already degraded to level 15. No, it was already at level 14 now.

Moyuer, who also noticed the weakening black giant, suddenly changed his hand sign. "Divine Blessing."

Indeed, Moyuer had cast a blessing magic skill. A concentrated white light instantly infiltrated the body of the black giant. If this was a living being, it would definitely be greatly enhanced.

But this was essentially a dark spell, and the infusion of the power of light instantly clashed with its dark energy. It was akin to pouring water into a boiling pot of oil.

Sacred light exploded continuously on the body of the black giant and the amplified light spread out, evaporating the dark aura on the spot. Du You could even faintly see a silhouette within the black giant.

The severely injured black giant began to fade, becoming almost translucent. Du You seized this opportunity and released another full force Holy Light Arrow Array, aiming at its weakest point.

By this time, the fleeing white people had stopped. This applied to both soldiers and priests.

"Impressive, the people living by the sea possess such mighty power. This seems different from the sacrificial magic skills of our ancestors, but no matter, they belong to our white race," someone said.

"Yes, we can consider promoting them into our upper class. With such strength, they should have a place among the elders."

"But their strength is too formidable, with so many of them at their disposal, it might not be too feasible to give everyone a high-ranking position."

This remark quietened the uproar among the white priests. Indeed, they didn’t want to relinquish their power, especially when they were close to unifying Gourd Island.

"Let’s have them guard the northern islands. They can watch over the remaining Black Brave Warriors while helping us develop the northern islands." Even before the final victory, these people had begun to contemplate about sharing the spoils. It seemed that when power was at stake, there would always be unsavoury disagreements.

Right now, Du You and his group weren’t concerned about this. Some of the other students regretted not being closer earlier, which would have allowed them to get involved and reap some benefits.

Although they couldn’t improve their evaluation and receive credits, getting in a few attacks would have enhanced the rewards they received in the end. Unfortunately, they were too far away now, and it was evident that the black giant couldn’t hold out much longer.

If they were to rush over now and attack a few times, it would be unbecoming.

After all, they weren’t the type of people who had spent years in society and developed thick skin. These students, who had just entered college, cared about their image. At least, most of them were for sure.

With the final eruption of Du You’s Holy Light Arrow Array, the black aura was finally shattered. The black giant exploded with a loud ’bang’, and the dark aura gradually dispersed, stripping everything around it to nothingness.

Moyuer took advantage of this moment to release a wide range Holy Light Purification Technique, dispersing the surrounding dark forces. Amid the dark aura, a figure fell; it was the unrecognisable chief of the black tribe. The dark aura had corroded his body making it pitted and uneven.

The black priests, who had severed an arm, still remained on the high platform. However, they were on their last breath, and had lost their combat ability. Awaiting them were the white army’s blades.

By this time, all the obstacles that stood in the way of the white race’s unification of Gourd Island were completely removed. They just needed to continue their orderly attack. The Black Brave Warriors had suffered heavy losses, and the priests were almost entirely wiped out.

Without the help of the priests, even if the white people were to stop their attacks now, the black people would continue to decline. A developing primitive race couldn’t survive without their priests.

"What are we waiting for? Launch the final attack now. Our mission is almost completed."

No one expected that this task, which was claimed to be the hardest one for beginners, would be completed so quickly. It had only been less than ten days since they arrived in this world. Newest update provıded by 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⁂𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⁂𝘯𝘦𝘵

If they were able to complete this task within ten days, they could brag about it for an entire semester upon returning.

The university record that they broke was a foregone conclusion. Like them, after some discussion, the white priests also reacted, realizing that now was not the time for discussion. They needed to quickly earn more merits, which would also benefit them.
