Chapter 181 Devil Dirac's Shield

At this moment, several thousand yards away from Batteer City, in a desolate graveyard, one soul after another appeared. They were Tang Yao, Unkillable Ruffian, and the others who had been killed.

In soul form, they could see each other. Seeing others appear, they exchanged bitter smiles.

"It's over. We're wiped out this time." Brilliant Knife Light looked around. More and more people were appearing. He guessed they would all be here soon.

"How did you guys get taken out?" Smiling Not For Me asked. They were killed earlier and didn't know what happened later.

"We were so close to killing Dirac, just a little bit. If we had ten more minutes, we could have done it." Unkillable Ruffian said, a little frustrated. He didn't know that Dirac was a quest monster and could only be killed by the Paternoster Warhammer in the end.

They exchanged bitter smiles. A little bit was just a little bit, but they still didn't kill him.

Twenty soul forms appeared.

"Huh? Why hasn't Nie Yan come out?" Xie Yao asked, puzzled.

Only then did everyone realize that Nie Yan hadn't appeared yet. However, it had been more than ten minutes since Dirac cast the forbidden-level Meteor Rain. Could it be that Nie Yan hadn't been killed after all this time?

"Is Boss still inside?"

"If Nie Yan hasn't come out, maybe there's still a chance!" Brilliant Knife Light said. He was finding it hard to keep his emotions in check.

The others discussed among themselves. They prayed that Nie Yan would be able to kill Dirac in the end, but they knew the hope was slim, almost impossible. Maybe Nie Yan had just managed to dodge the Meteor Rain.

"Let's resurrect here and rest for a bit," Brilliant Knife Light said to the others.

They released their souls one after another, resurrecting on the spot. Each of them dropped a level and lost some equipment. However, such losses weren't unbearable for them. They had already made a profit after leveling in the Dark World for so long.

The twenty members sat down, recovering their health, while waiting for news from Nie Yan. They didn't dare to call Nie Yan, fearing they would disturb him. Seeing that Nie Yan hadn't been killed in the team chat, they felt relieved.

After Nie Yan entered the portal, images flashed through his mind, about the Orc King, the Paternoster Warhammer, telling the story of how the Orc King traveled around to establish the Saturn Empire, eliminating one enemy after another. However, the hero eventually grew old, and was betrayed by Dirac. The scenes immersed Nie Yan in the story.

The meaning of the Assassin's Heart was that, as an assassin, even if he knew the road ahead was difficult and certain death, he was willing to risk going forward for justice, to complete his mission with the resolve to die.

Nie Yan successfully completed the task, assassinating Dirac, this powerful NPC, so he received the reward of the Assassin's Heart.

After an unknown amount of time, Nie Yan finally woke up. He looked at his location and saw that he was inside Batteer City. There were crisscrossing streets everywhere.

He was finally out. Nie Yan took a deep breath, feeling particularly relaxed.

Nie Yan couldn't wait to see the rewards from the Assassin's Heart.

Assassin's Heart: All stats +30%, Agility +30%, All control skill levels +3, Gain equipment sub-slot. Human Empire Respect +50, Saturn Empire Respect +200.

Seeing the bonus attributes of the Assassin's Heart, Nie Yan was ecstatic. This was amazing. His stats were already strong enough, and this bonus made him even more abnormal. The +3 to control skills was also good. These were all added to his own stats, which was completely different from the attributes attached to equipment.

The equipment sub-slot meant that Nie Yan could wear two sets of equipment at the same time. These two sets of equipment could be changed at any time, and the switching time was very fast, only taking one second, and could be changed in battle. Getting an equipment sub-slot was even better than a 30% stat bonus!

Wearing two sets of equipment at the same time, although the attributes didn't stack, Nie Yan could wear equipment with different attributes, such as a set with high magic resistance and a set with high physical defense. He could use the high magic resistance equipment against mages and the high physical defense equipment against warriors. If he encountered a team of mages and warriors, he could switch back and forth. If he was worried about his good equipment being looted, he could wear a set of top-quality equipment and a set of garbage equipment. If he encountered a situation where he had to die, he could switch to the garbage equipment.

Two equipment slots were extremely flexible.

Nie Yan remembered that a player usually had to reach level 180 before they could get an equipment sub-slot. He didn't expect the Assassin's Heart to have an extra attachment. He wondered if he could get a third equipment slot after reaching level 180.

After understanding the bonus attributes of the Assassin's Heart, Nie Yan looked at the two items dropped by Dirac and was stunned.

One of these two items was a heavy shield. He didn't know what metal this heavy shield was made of, but it was very heavy in his hand. If it was a shield warrior with very low strength, he wouldn't be able to lift it at all. It was blood-red all over, with strange runes on the shield surface, and a demon pattern in the center.

He looked at the attributes of this shield.

Demon Dirac's Shield: Legendary, Divine, Required Level, 180.

Item Description: A heavy shield made by the demon Dirac by the craftsmen with Red Moon Fine Iron. It has a very strong defense ability and comes with six slots that can be inlaid with six gems.

Item Attributes: Defense 7830-8812, Defense Rate 70%, 30% chance to ignore attacks, Magic Resistance +100, Strength +50%, Health +60%. Defense Type, Dark Armor.

Attached Skill, Demon Taunt, makes all units within a radius of thirty yards only able to attack themselves, lasting 5 minutes, skill cooldown time 20 minutes. Demon Devour, passive skill, in the process of attacking the opponent, consume the opponent's magic value at a speed of (2 * Strength) and convert it into its own health.

Attached: Demon's Suck, when health is below 30%, enter a state of fear, attributes decrease by 30%.

Usage Limit: None.

Seeing the Demon Dirac's Shield, Nie Yan's eyes were a little dull. My god, a shield with 7000+ defense! He had never seen it before. It seemed that the strongest shield he had seen in his previous life had only 5000+ defense, and the other attributes couldn't compare to the Demon Dirac's Shield at all.

It could be inlaid with six gems. If he inlaid it with a few gems that reduced requirements, Brilliant Knife Light should be able to use it.

If Brilliant Knife Light got the Dirac's Shield, the first thing Nie Yan would do would be to organize a guild team to kill high-level creatures. One of them, Nie Yan thought of the Lava Giant that had slaughtered tens of thousands of players in the Molten Forest before, and there were many more.

It was estimated that it wouldn't be long before the equipment level of the top members of the Crazy Magic guild could be raised by several levels.

In addition to this Demon Dirac's Shield, the other thing was a rhombus-shaped crystal, another fragment of divinity!

Nie Yan looked at it. He already had three fragments of divinity in his backpack. He didn't know what they were for, so he could only keep them.

"Where are you guys now?" Nie Yan asked in the team chat.

As soon as they saw Nie Yan speak, the team chat exploded.

"Nie Yan, how are things on your side? Did you get killed?"

"No, the level couldn't have risen so fast if you got killed. Level 149, Nie Yan, you didn't kill Dirac, did you?"

"Nie Yan, did you really kill Dirac?"

The voices in the team chat were chaotic. The team members were too eager.

"Speak one by one. I can't hear you clearly. Dirac was killed," Nie Yan said with a smile.

"How did you kill him? I remember Dirac had nearly 50,000 health left before he killed us." Unkillable Ruffian asked, puzzled. It was unbelievable that Nie Yan could take down more than 50,000 health from Dirac alone.

"This is a quest. Dirac is a quest boss. He became invincible later. I didn't even do damage to him with Shatter Strike. I killed him with the Paternoster Warhammer later!" Nie Yan explained.

Hearing Nie Yan's words, Unkillable Ruffian and the others realized that this was a quest. The Paternoster Warhammer was the key to completing the quest. Without the Paternoster Warhammer, Dirac was invincible and couldn't be killed. They had to reduce Dirac's health to a certain level, and then use the Paternoster Warhammer to complete the fatal blow to complete the quest.

"Did Dirac drop anything?" The others asked curiously.

"Did you complete the Assassin's Heart quest?" Brilliant Knife Light asked.

"The Assassin's Heart quest has been completed. I got the Assassin's Heart. In addition to the Assassin's Heart, I also got a shield," Nie Yan said. Speaking of this Demon Dirac's Shield, he was a little excited and shared the shield's attributes in the team chat.

The attributes of the Demon Dirac's Shield were completely displayed in front of Brilliant Knife Light and the others.

There was a deathly silence. They were all shocked by the attributes of the Demon Dirac's Shield.

"Such amazing attributes, a shield with 7000 defense, 70% defense rate. I guess if Knife Light gets this shield, whether I can break his defense is a question," Water Color Smoker said with emotion.

If he got this shield, Brilliant Knife Light's defense would be truly invincible. Such a shield warrior, wherever he was placed, would be an unbreakable super tank.

"Inlay it with a few gems that reduce requirements. I guess Knife Light can wear it," Big Brother Seven said.

Gems that reduced requirements weren't that hard to find for Nie Yan and the others.

"With this quest settled, let's meet the Bloodfiend Knights. When Knife Light gets this shield, we'll farm bosses together. The first target is the Lava Giant," Nie Yan said spiritedly.

"Level 200 Lord?" The others were stunned for a moment. Thinking about it, with such a high-defense shield warrior, even facing a level 200 Lord wouldn't be a problem! They couldn't help but look forward to it. In the future, the equipment of this group of people would have a qualitative leap.
