Meteor Fall Master in the 'Starry Abyss'-Chapter 1271 - 269: Empire Line: Toward the [Spiritual Deer] Ending (63)_2

"I gave you a chance, Lord Leoz, to join the Secret Society and become one of us. At the very least, you could have earned the status of a councilor. For a cannon fodder deity like you, that's already the highest honor."

"In the end, don't you still see me as cannon fodder?"

Li Aozi laughed.

"What else? To put it bluntly, Li Aozi, you don't actually think you can confront Gaia because of some specialty you possess, do you? You're just an unfortunate scapegoat for Morphederia; it would be the same no matter who it is. The one truly confronting Gaia is the Will of the Dominator, Morphederia."

"Have you seen 'Ultraman'? You're like the human host, possessing the qualifications to transform into a Giant, but that power doesn't belong to you. Once Ultraman eliminates the monster, he moves away from the human host. Afterward, the host still has to continue paying off the mortgage or keep working overtime, without gaining any benefits, all the while worrying about their identity being exposed."

Zhang Fulong glanced at Li Aozi:

"Honestly, you should have listened to Meganiros. Although this guy's strength is lacking, at least he's smarter than you. If I were you, I would've accepted the council's offer instead of continuing to oppose the Emperor, Anpolo."

"Anpolo now... no, the power of the Dark Titan Gelbroth is not something you can oppose."

"Offer, offer? What kind of offer? No matter where I am, you all just see me as a tool to be used."

Li Aozi glanced around at them and casually said:

"Are all your people here?"

"Why? Realizing now that with your current abilities, the damage is completely insufficient to face three demigods, even if we can't kill you, being trapped in someone else's Divine Country is no different from being imprisoned? But you don't need to worry about Apostle Arthur coming out for scraps; without his sword, he can't beat anyone."

Zhang Fulong lazily said:

"Honestly, I've brought your old comrades over here, and I'll give you one last chance, Li Aozi, join the Secret Society or continue being a dog for the Starry Abyss—"

He hadn't finished speaking when he saw Li Aozi pulling out a purple crescent badge.

[Social Institution · Purple Moon Anchor Point]

[This institution has been purified by the Starry Abyss, with some attributes and abilities incompatible, thus dismissed]

[Effect: Allows your character to revert to the previous occupation stage.]

[Activate?]

As the corners of Li Aozi's mouth curved upward, Zhang Fulong increasingly sensed something amiss, as Li Aozi silently crushed the badge, and a pale purple moon instantly emerged from the clouds.

[Social Institution · Purple Moon Anchor Point—Activated]

The flames burning on his face instantly crumbled and collapsed, like a frost descending, his skin quickly hardened and crystallized, reflecting a porcelain-like sheen.

His body instantly expanded to five and a half meters tall, with a simple white robe springing from his waist, unfurling to the sides, like a White Dragon spreading its wings.

Radiance glowing brilliantly, crescent moon rising high!

[Your occupation has reverted to [Lunar String Archbishop]]

In the mid to late stages of 'Starry Abyss,' the role of [Pope] is rather awkward.

During this period, everyone is only one step away from the final pathway, and among the transitional occupations, the [Pope] really has no standout features compared to other occupations of the same period.

Even the pathway occupation of [Corona Pope] is merely an enhanced spell turret, adding a healer form and a bewildering melee mode on this basis.

The upper limit isn't high, and neither is the lower limit.

However, what if it was the [Bishop]?

Where there's a rank disparity, the [Bishop] has no advantage, after all, this occupation level is merely an advanced form of [Echoer], lacking the rich, mandatory judgment methods of the late game.

There is, however, one aspect that nearly no other occupation can match.

——————————————

[Racial Talent - Demonic Fervor]

—As long as you deal damage to a target, the attack speed limit will be removed.

The higher your [Charm], the higher your attack frequency. (Unlimited conversion)

[Passive Skill 'Bishop's Zeal']

'Bishop's Zeal': You are so confident in your worldview, you believe in the starry sky and science, unwavering in your belief that human will can change objective reality— and you have succeeded.

When your worldview is related to materialism, gain idealism effects.

Idealism Bonus: After five consecutive normal attacks, increase attack speed by 15%, and critical hit rate by 15%.

Overflowing critical hit rate is converted to [Charm] determination: every 1% critical hit rate converts to 1 point of [Charm].

——————————————

Pa!

The bishop's white body descends to the mortal world, bending slightly at the knees, lifting his head.

A pair of dark blue eyes ignite with blazing fire.

[Meteor Fall: Glittering Sword]

Both hands burst with a splendid golden Light Blade, Li Aozi's figure flickered suddenly, crossing dozens of timelines in an instant, rushing to Engineer Zhang Fulong's front!

The two swords intersect, cutting simultaneously.

Clang!

Zhang Fulong's expression remained calm, and beside him, the Black Knight lifted a hand, raising an invisible protective field.

"[Wall of Despair]."

Gretto said calmly:

"As long as my power doesn't run dry, no one can break through this protective field."

Meanwhile, the Narrow Space Mirror beside Zhang Fulong also moved—her body mysteriously disappeared for an instant, and the next moment, eight identical figures emerged, sweeping past Li Aozi from different angles and spaces, one after another.
