Chapter 30: It's Over! But It's She Who Is Over!
At this moment, Pain Banshee Xiduo had only the ability to parry, with no power to strike back.
Her face was currently filled with an expression of astonishment, and at the same time, she was gnashing her teeth, muttering in resentment and unwillingness.
"Impossible! To have been drained of all Calamity Power by the Sacrificial Mark, yet still be this strong. Why is it like this, why..."
Despair was revealed in Xiduo's eyes; she could not understand why Xina's strength had increased instead of decreased after experiencing the Sacrificial Mark.
She roared furiously: "Since that is the case, let everything before my eyes be destroyed!"
The Pain Banshee's figure gradually became taller and taller, and the chains all over her body flew about wildly like countless black tentacles.
Her face became incomparably ferocious, and that large mouth opened unusually wide.
The Calamity Qi permeating the surroundings was pouring into her mouth in a steady stream, and her entire body also became increasingly bloated.
It seemed this Pain Banshee was going to play for keeps!
The Painful Howl, which mixed sonic waves with mental attacks, could shatter dozens of dark servants into a pile of fragments, and its range of effect was extremely wide.
When Lin Yue'er saw that the Pain Banshee was about to unleash her ultimate move, her face was already full of despair, and she said powerlessly: "It's over."
She had witnessed the strength of this Calamity Hero of Demon Cave No. 55 in the military's reference videos.
With one sonic wave attack, everything in its path would be left barren.
Now, even if she grew wings, she couldn't escape.
But she heard Zhou Chu suddenly say at this moment: "Yes, it's over! But it's she who is over!"
The Pain Banshee made a desperate gamble, attempting to use all the Calamity Power in her body to launch a Painful Howl to kill all the enemies before her.
But how could Xina let her have her way? She hurriedly raised her god-tier longbow and unleashed a Death Arrow Rain.
Because although the chains around the Pain Banshee's body were swinging in a way that left no gaps, the biggest flaw was on the top of her head.
At this time, the Pain Banshee saw a pitch-black cloud mass gathering above her head and immediately panicked.
Because she also knew clearly where her own vulnerability lay, she forcibly held back the ultimate move she was about to release.
But this holding back was no small matter; the Calamity Qi she had previously absorbed into her body, unable to be released, instantly became restless.
The next moment, the Pain Banshee suffered the backlash of the Calamity Power.
The Calamity Qi kept breaking through the exposed skin on her body; at this moment, her body was like a tire that had been blown out from being over-inflated, instantly shredded to pieces.
Xiduo then let out one miserable wail after another, and her body, along with those flying chains, fell to the ground.
【Successfully killed "Pain Banshee Xiduo", EXP +.】
【Obtained Soul Fragment *1】
【Due to the material grade being too high, material collection failed.】
【Your hero servant Xina shares EXP with you, EXP +】
【Your hero servant Xina's level has increased to the 10th Level!】
【Ding! Your level has increased to the 10th Level!】
【Your attributes have increased: Strength +5, Constitution +5, Soul Power +5, Agility +5!】
【Free Attribute Points +5!】
【Divine Fusion count +1!】
Having taken out the guards of Demon Cave No. 55, Zhou Chu finally reached the 10th Level!
【Since your level has reached the requirement for the 1st Turn advancement, your level cannot be increased temporarily.】
【Your level can only continue to increase after completing the Soul Profession advancement. Before completing the Soul Profession advancement, obtained EXP will not be retained!】
Before every Soul Profession advancement, there would be a situation where one's level gets capped.
And killing monsters again would not yield EXP.
Zhou Chu's next step was to complete the 1st Turn Soul Profession advancement.
Moreover, the cost required for every Soul Profession advancement was also a quite large sum.
For the 1st Turn alone, it would cost at least 100,000.
However, this sum of money did not mean much to Zhou Chu now; it was nothing more than the value of 10 Soul Fragments.
Furthermore, Zhou Chu still had a Purification Stone on him that had absorbed a Magic Source Core; returning to report the mission would earn him at least no less than 500 military merits.
500 military merits were equivalent to 5 million!
It was all for him alone.
If it were a 10-person vanguard squad destroying a Demon Cave, these 500 military merits would have to be split equally.
If split, each person would only get 500,000.
Next, by taking the Magic Source Core in this Demon Cave No. 55 as well, Zhou Chu would have several hundred more military merits coming in.
One must know that Demon Cave No. 55 was different from No. 69; it was on the Exorcism Army's blacklist, so the military merits obtained would definitely not be less than 500.
Originally, Lin Yue'er thought that death was certain this time.
But what shocked her incomparably was that the Pain Banshee, who made the entire Exorcism Army feel a headache, was actually resolved so easily in this way.
So, the Pain Banshee's seemingly impenetrable chain attack had flaws to exploit.
The key was the grasp of timing and how to restrict the opponent's sonic wave attack.
What she completely did not expect was that Demon Cave No. 55 had appeared for such a long time, and even the Exorcism Army had not been able to take it down, yet it was finished off by a high school graduate who only bound an F-rank Soul Profession.
Was Zhou Chu really an F-rank Soul Profession?
And, was that female archer named Xina really his servant?
At this moment, in Lin Yue'er's heart, besides deep shock, she was also filled with doubts.
At this time, Zhou Chu saw the Pain Banshee die suddenly, and unable to suppress the excitement in his heart, he rushed over in a stride.
He used the Dead Man's Contract on the riddled corpse.
Under Lin Yue'er's terrified and astonished gaze, that previously powerful Calamity Hero actually stood up once again.
At this moment, the Pain Banshee no longer possessed her former arrogance; instead, she knelt on one knee before Zhou Chu with utmost obedience and respectfully said, "Master, please torment Xiduo to your heart's content!"
Seeing this scene, Lin Yue'er was so shocked that she was completely dumbfounded.
Necromancer, this Soul Profession is just too terrifying.
To be able to make a Heroic Difficulty monster from the Calamity Legion bow down and submit to him.
And to think, to think she even proposed that kind of request...
Is this something a newcomer with an F-rank Soul Profession could actually pull off?!
For a moment, Lin Yue'er was left in a state of utter confusion.
Without any hesitation, Zhou Chu directly used the newly obtained Divine Fusion opportunity on the Pain Banshee he had just contracted.
Compared to using it on the Epic-grade Calamity Ring, such a precious opportunity was best spent on a Heroic servant.
