Chapter 270: Spoils: Million Demon Gold!

Boom!

Crack crack...

With a dull thud, the four-stage Dark Sun Knight whose body was set ablaze by demonic fire was violently flung away by the flame demon Hetara's tail whip.

Although this knight's rune-ringed heavy armor had strong defense.

But the flame demon Hetara's charged, explosive tail whip still dented the knight's heavy armor and broke several of his ribs.

The knight flung backward rolled seven or eight times on the ground, flew over thirty meters, and clanged against the ground.

At this moment, the Dark Sun Steam Knight's blood had soaked his arms and face, and who knows how many bones were broken.

Even so.

This Dark Sun Steam Knight possessed only a single steam core, and its digestion and fusion were poor.

Bearing the demonic fire, gripping his heavy sword, he caught his breath for a moment, then gritted his teeth and staggered back to his feet.

His strong will and supernatural state propped up his current combat stance.

Admirable willpower.

From deep within the Curtain Stage, Taku's indifferent voice slowly drifted over.

He suddenly gripped the knight's heavy sword in his hand.

A dull 'Clang!'

The heavy sword struck the ground, and a faint knight's shield appeared, lacking intensity but bearing the Holy Shield defensive property.

Blasphemer Taku! I hope to earn the right to fight you—is now enough?

The four-stage, level 46 Dark Sun Steam Knight growled lowly.

His voice rumbled like low thunder, surging throughout the Curtain Stage.

During these successive hours.

Taku sat firmly on the Fishing Platform… well, actually he sat firmly on the Curtain Stage.

He gradually fed the Forbidden Curtain Shards to the Dark Sun Church's geniuses.

One after another, he pulled them.

Then he engaged in one-on-one 'Real Man' battles.

Vampire Marquis Armand, a blood clan member who hopes to become a high-ranking supernatural being.

Within less than ten seconds of entering, Taku chopped off his head and kicked it around like a ball.

While his vampire supernatural form's body, Taku lit it like a candle; in the flame's scorching, he flailed about like a headless fly.

This genius's offensive means are somewhat formidable, but his defensive ability is lacking by far.

He likely spent all his resources raising his level; his supernatural foundation is shallow.

The blood clan's second genius, the top-tier genius Count Louis.

Although he lacks Armand's fame.

But his foundation is evidently more solid.

Taku let him briefly show his speed on the Curtain Stage; his agility was indeed passable.

But when Taku increased the intensity, this sort of non-spellcasting vampire supernatural being clearly couldn't keep up.

Finally, Taku sealed him, planning to use him as a side dish at the bonfire banquet a few days later.

The fourth-stage Frostblood Werewolf, the renowned 'Claudia,' who had slaughtered many humans before, liked most to freeze enemies to death with her breath.

This round, Taku let her unleash her Frost Breath to the fullest.

Taku countered with Divine Fire.

After they sprayed at each other for over three minutes.

The werewolf could barely hold on.

Then the Frostblood Werewolf was turned on the spot by Taku into a fire-roasted werewolf.

As for the formidable Heroic Spirit Werewolf 'Magnus,' in his clash with Taku, he also employed some heroic spirit tactics that opened Taku's eyes a bit.

But on Taku's home turf, he didn't last long before Taku sealed him.

After dealing with these well-known geniuses one by one,

Taku then had the flame demon Hetara and the Demon Spider Lord take turns facing him.

And the Dark Sun Steam Knight who had just entered.

Was stubbornly enduring the output, wanting to confront Taku head-on.

In the depths of the Curtain, Taku, who was beginning to prepare the Soul Curtain Shadow Ritual, borrowed a glance of the Soul Curtain Shadow to peek at that fourth-stage Dark Sun Steam Knight, then slowly spoke.

Although your knightly sequence can endure, your Dark Sun power is not substantial enough.

The digestion of your steam sequence power is a mess, wasting a steam core.

And furthermore—

Saying this, Taku paused.

Since you entered, you have been continuously amassing powerful sequence-slaying force within your body, and it also possesses an extremely strong locking trait.

Actually… you don't really want to fight me head-on.

You're just using this excuse to attempt a killing strike against me, right?

Taku's words made the Dark Sun Steam Knight's body shudder violently.

Yes!

What Blasphemer Taku said is exactly what he is doing now.

A knight, playing tricks and schemes before a wizard?

You truly live up to being a knight!

"He Ta La, twist this guy's head off and kick it like a ball."

"Besides, his corpse and soul are your dinner today."

Ta Ke said that, and He Ta La immediately broke into a feral grin.

"I will obey your command, my great master."

Having turned around, He Ta La charged at that shameless knight.

For such a sandbag knight with no power to resist, this is He Ta La's favorite.

He can carefully disassemble every part on his body.

At this moment, beside Ta Ke's ritual.

The Demon Spider Lord also remained obedient and humble, crawling beside Ta Ke, ready to obey his orders at any moment.

Having witnessed Ta Ke's many methods, the two lords deeply understood that their master was unfathomable.

Even if they joined forces, before the great master they were nothing but toys.

They both feared the Death-level Taboo Curse Power, which was firmly in their master's grasp.

This is nearly— a miracle!

Facing such a master.

They could not muster even a trace of rebellious thought.

As the shadow ritual's shadow fire light mirror swayed.

Two fourth-tier humanoid shadow silks fell down one after another.

One was level 48, the other level 46.

Previously, Ta Ke was killed by two Dark Sun Archbishops, losing two soul shades.

Now, these soul shades naturally need to be replenished from the geniuses of the Dark Sun Church.

The usefulness of soul shades has been tested by Archbishop-level experts.

Ta Ke used Precision Correction to weave the life meridians and soul meridians onto the soul shade.

Whoever comes will say this soul shade is Ta Ke.

Besides, these soul shades can also play a very exquisite role in daily combat arrangements.

Moreover, they can help Ta Ke withstand a large amount of soul damage.

Soon, under He Ta La's assault, that Dark Sun steam knight could barely hold on.

The Shadow Demon Spider Lord quickly climbed over.

Not long after.

The Shadow Demon Spider Lord then carried over the Dark Sun knight's helmet, armor, heavy sword, and transcendent storage bracelet, among other items, placing them beside Ta Ke.

At this moment, beside Ta Ke lay a pile of equipment and transcendent storage bracelets dropped by over a dozen geniuses.

As top geniuses within the Dark Sun Church.

The resources in these geniuses' hands naturally did not disappoint Ta Ke.

Even from the transcendent storage bracelet in the Dark Sun Holy Son's hand, Ta Ke pulled out two chests filled with magic gold.

One chest contained 50,000 magic gold.

Two chests held a full 100,000 magic gold.

Adding other scattered resources, there were roughly over 200,000 magic gold worth of resources.

Other geniuses' resources were also in the tens of thousands of magic gold, even reaching over ten thousand.

Those with fewer resources still had roughly thirty to fifty thousand magic gold.

This wave of Ta Ke hunting geniuses yielded magic gold resources worth nearly a million.

After all, it was a clean sweep of these top-tier geniuses.

This wave's bountiful harvest is comparable to a great harvest.

While manipulating and adapting to the newly obtained soul shade, Ta Ke silently pondered.

"After this ecological surge ends, in a while Bishop Martha Clark should be sending over the forbidden items, powerful forbidden curses, and the secret canon of the Rune World Tower."

"However, during this period, Bishop Martha's busyness will likely last a long time, after all, completely driving out the Dark Sun ecology from Saint Lande leaves too much to handle afterward."

Ta Ke lightly rubbed his palm and gave a faint smile.

"Perhaps, that powerful forbidden witchcraft and powerful Rune World Tower, if I had chosen them myself in the past, the effect would be better."
