Chapter 781: Despair (Had a meeting at noon, the leader dragged it out too long, sorry, sorry)

After Locke spoke out, the entire scene gradually quieted down.

The villagers gathered in a clump, the Demon Priest with a sinister and terrifying expression, and the pale-faced, cold-sweating Teacher all focused their gazes on this young boy at this moment.

Anticipating him to say those words.

"I... really don't know what item it is, can you explain more clearly..." Locke clenched his fists, his other hand still holding the Young Child in his arms.

The Demon Priest's already cold gaze grew even gloomier, causing the temperature here to drop by several degrees.

The Black-Robed Figure, whose arms had already been torn off, felt somewhat disappointed inwardly.

However, this was also within his expectations, and there were also bystanders whose relationship with the other party wasn't considered too intimate.

Mainly because the time was too short, he hadn't had time to cultivate a more intimate relationship yet.

But he also had a contingency plan for this.

"Then I will tell you bluntly, I want the helmet. Do you understand? I want the helmet!"

His mood seemed to become even more tyrannical because of this. He stretched out his withered arms, and ghastly green flames burned on the Black-Robed Figure's Corporeal Form.

This caused him to let out an extremely tragic wail. He had managed to endure the pain of having his arms forcefully torn off previously.

This was enough to prove from the side that the pain brought by these flames far exceeded what a normal person could imagine.

"Don't give it to him, the Demon Priest obtaining this kind of item will definitely cause even greater massacres. Locke... even if the people of the entire village die out, you cannot give it to him!"

Amidst his painful wails, the Black-Robed Figure transmitted his final message to Locke.

Soon, he turned into ashes and scattered on the ground.

"This is knowing he has no value left, Retreating In Order To Advance..." Li Yu commented with interest.

"It seems there should still be information we don't know, otherwise the other party wouldn't use this method to perform for Locke to see."

"The other party is Proceeding Orderly, continuously applying pressure to that little guy, advancing side by side from the front and the side. He shouldn't be able to hold out for much longer."

Mo Duo also nodded and stated her own opinion.

"Not necessarily..." Li Yu shook his head, his eyes carrying an inexplicable meaning as he placed his gaze on Locke.

"Although he is young, the progress of the matter won't necessarily follow the other party's plan."

"It should be the death of the God of Fury that made him feel a sense of urgency, which is why he is using such a rough performance to force him."

Mo Duo was somewhat surprised. Locke clearly hadn't experienced major scenes before, so it was impossible for him to have a strong ability to withstand pressure.

Through the Black-Robed Figure's buildup, Locke already knew how cruel the other party's methods were.

Mo Duo could also guess the other party's next actions. Noah and Fina were Locke's closest kin.

As long as that Demon Priest pulled these two people out, Locke would naturally think of how cruel the other party's methods were.

But now Li Yu didn't seem to think so. Mo Duo was slightly curious. Only in front of Li Yu would she reveal some unique emotions.

"It's just a pity for the villagers here..." Mo Duo shook her head and said.

"Minor issue. After this matter is over, I'll directly reverse this area and do a memory wipe, and this incident will completely cease to exist." Li Yu said casually.

While the two conversed casually, the performance in the field was still continuing.

After the death of the Black-Robed Figure, the Demon Priest once again turned his gaze to the surviving villagers, a bloodthirsty light bursting from his eyes.

"Locke... think about how good we are usually, I beg you to save us!"

"Damn it, do you really want to watch us die in front of you helplessly!?"

"........."

Faced with the threat of death, the many villagers gradually began to turn ferocious.

Locke's arm holding the Young Child couldn't help but gradually tighten.

Noah hid among the villagers, shivering. Her eyes carried tear stains, but she didn't join in lashing out at Locke.

"My, My Lord, I know he has a particularly close playmate!" A villager said to the Demon Priest with flattery.

Locke's expression suddenly changed, and he abruptly looked at that villager.

He remembered the other party. Although he was a bit cunning normally, he wasn't considered a bad person, and often patted his head when he was little.

"Oh..." The Demon Priest followed the direction the villager pointed and directly pulled Noah out.

"Locke, Locke!"

Noah called out unconsciously. This was just a subconscious call for her closest person while in extreme panic.

In this kind of call, one could feel anticipation and longing.

"A young girl... tsk tsk." The Demon Priest let out an inexplicable sound: "What a nice girl, right in her prime..."

"Unfortunately, your luck isn't very good, getting involved with this guy..."

"Did you see that flame just now? It can burn your soul, and can burn continuously for several hundred years, keeping you in extreme pain the entire time."

In fact, without needing to exaggerate excessively, Noah herself was already scared bloodless.

Sizzle sizzle!

Locke lowered his head and slowly placed the Young Child in his arms on the ground. A slight crackling Lightning Glow began to dissipate from his entire body.

This scene caused the villagers who were Verbally and textually denouncing him to freeze.

The Demon Priest also seemed somewhat surprised. He activated his Divine Bloodline?

Not good!

His expression changed drastically, seeming to have thought of something...

"You give me..." Locke's tone was hoarse and deep, and then he slowly raised his head, boom!

The Lightning Glow on his body formed a roaring lightning pillar that shot straight into the clouds. The Thunder Ring surged, and his Aura couldn't stop climbing!

"Stop!"

A sharp shout sounding like startling thunder rang out. The Earth beneath his feet exploded with a bang. His figure transformed into Thunder, sweeping past at an extremely fast speed.

Wherever he passed, all the Demons were completely cleaved into fine powder by the Thunder, leaving only the Demon Priest in the very center.

"Die!"

He let out a shrill roar, the Thunder on his arms practically taking physical form.

His Aura now had almost reached the category of an A-Tier Lifeform.

It had to be said, the Firstborn of Thunder was after all a Councilor-level powerhouse in the past. With the inherited Bloodline being activated, it was still somewhat impressive.

If it were a normal Demon Priest, under this move, he could basically be declared dead, not even leaving a corpse behind.

Rumble!

The world changed colors as a thick bolt of Thunder struck straight down, arriving on the Demon Priest's body at the same time as Locke's fist.

The dazzling intense light made everyone present unable to open their eyes.

Locke's sudden outburst left them dumbfounded.

Then, the Lightning Glow gradually dimmed down. They slowly opened their eyes, only to see a green barrier in the center blocking Locke's fist.

The Demon Priest was in the center, still completely unharmed. The berserk Thunder around him didn't seem to cause him any damage.

Seeing this scene, while the many villagers were disappointed inwardly, they also let out a sigh of relief for some unknown reason.

"Interesting..." The Demon Priest sneered: "Just a tiny bit short, what a pity..."

In reality, even if Locke's Strength multiplied several more times, it was impossible for him to break through his defense.

The sharpness in Locke's eyes gradually faded, clearly somewhat in disbelief.

The power he just erupted with seemed terrifying to the extreme in his own view, yet it still failed to break through the Demon Priest's defense.

Is the Demon Priest this strong?

"Have you thought it over?" The Demon Priest raised his hand. Green flames lingered around Noah's body, and wailing souls could vaguely be seen within the flames.

What he feared wasn't the power of the Divine Bloodline, but another power that might be drawn out by the Divine Bloodline.

Powerful force surged within his body, Lightning Glow dissipating from Locke's pupils. He looked at Noah in the flames and squeezed a few words out from between his teeth: "I refuse!"

"Locke!" Noah's mother, Fina, couldn't help but shout at this moment, her eyes full of disbelief.

Noah was the same, staring blankly at Locke, even ignoring the green flames beside her.

Locke also didn't dare to meet their eyes, merely staring fixedly at the Demon Priest and gritting his teeth: "He is a Demon Priest, the most evil person."

"Could it be that after I hand the item over, he will let us off!?"

"No, the first thing he'll do will definitely be to silence everyone by killing them!"

"Oh?" Mo Duo was somewhat surprised: "A Metamorphosis in state of mind in a Desperate Situation, rather astonishing."

Such reasoning actually wasn't hard to figure out. It was just that to be able to withstand the inner condemnation and the gazes of his closest kin, and still make this kind of decision, this kind of mentality was absolutely not ordinary.

"It seems this script got out of hand." Li Yu looked at that young boy.

"Did you see that? Truly a fickle and unrighteous person, able to turn a blind eye even to his closest kin. Boy, you have the potential to become a Demon Priest."

The Demon Priest was already cursing internally; it really got out of hand.

From the villagers, to the Black-Robed Figure, and then to Noah, their level of importance in Locke's heart was Proceeding Orderly.

However, this progressively applied pressure instead allowed Locke to gradually adapt, ultimately making this decision that he least wanted to see.

"No, it's not like that!" Locke shook his head. The azure Thunder on his body gradually turned black. He seemed to be speaking to the Demon Priest, yet also seemed to be convincing himself.

"You never intended to let us off!"

"Even if I hand it over, we will ultimately only face death!"

"What benefit is there for me to kill one or two useless villagers?" The Demon Priest asked in reply: "However, since you use this as an Excuse to convince yourself, then I will grant your wish."

"Kill them all. Don't worry, I will take special care of this Friend of yours. Some goblins seem to have a special liking for human females."

The Demon Priest still didn't give up, choosing to Stake Everything on One Throw and make a final probe.

"Goblins... goblins..."

Locke's pupils lost focus, his mouth continuously murmuring these words. The black Thunder on his body became increasingly unstable, and his pupils were covered in bloodshot lines.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

He roared at the sky, and the already tyrannical Aura on his body erupted once again. A mottled Helmet surfaced on his head, the surging Aura shaking heaven and earth.

"It's out..." Li Yu narrowed his eyes. The final component of the Thunder Battle Armor.

The power it bestowed caused the Energy Fluctuation on Locke's body to increase geometrically.

The Demon Priest cursed internally, damn it, he really stimulated the Helmet's power.

Using a Titan Artifact wasn't without a price. Even if it was just one of its components, it wasn't that simple to stimulate.

Previously, when he was still an ordinary person, Locke couldn't possibly stimulate the Helmet's power.

Therefore, he was only nervous just now because Locke stimulated his Divine Bloodline.

Because wanting to stimulate the Helmet's power, the Divine Bloodline was an inevitable prerequisite.

It consumed the power of the Divine Bloodline within Locke's body. His Life Aura rapidly dropped, but at the same time, it also bestowed him with unparalleled power.

Black Thunder burst forth, and terrifying ravines split open on the surrounding Earth. The villagers wailed as they fell into the Abyss.

With Locke's uncontrollable power, causing accidental injury was inevitable.

Looking at Locke before him, whose Aura was terrifying like a Thunder Demon God, the Demon Priest, or rather Kursa, felt a slight chill in his heart.

He might not necessarily be able to defeat the current Locke, and the possibility of overturning his car wasn't small.

Moreover, the more troublesome issue was that the script got out of hand, and the Helmet was definitely gone.

He hurriedly took out an Emblem interwoven with a Sword-Shield, holding it in his hand and reciting prayers.

Soon, a magnificent figure was outlined by milky-white light. The moment it appeared, one could seemingly hear the sounds of slaughter in war.

Very clearly, the God of War's God Descent occurred, but this wasn't his main body, just a Faith Projection.

"Kursa, what's going on here?" The God of War looked at Locke before him, who was lingering with black Thunder and wearing the Thunder Battle Armor Helmet, and asked with a frown.

"My Lord, an unexpected situation occurred. He went berserk and stimulated the Helmet's power," Kursa hurriedly replied.

"You said, if an accident occurs, I can summon your God Descent..."

God of War: "..."

I fking meant an unexpected situation, is it this kind of situation?

Damn it, no one else interfered, you played it out of hand yourself, right!?

The God of War's fury surged wildly, and Kursa didn't dare to raise his head.

He was also bitter internally. This was originally a Long and protracted plan that should at least last for several years, using gentle methods to influence Locke.

He also knew this kind of threat was very unstable, but the God of War himself rushed him urgently, so what could he do?

I'm really sorry, there was a meeting at noon, and the leader dragged it out for too long. I'm extremely sorry, extremely sorry!
