“My father won't... let you go.”
“You will... be buried... with me.”
Harkness was dead, beyond dead.
But his unwilling roar before his death still echoed in Ling Ye's ears.
Ling Ye completely ignored such empty threats.
However, after Harkness's body fell, several golden lights emerged.
Obviously, he dropped something good.
Just as Ling Ye was about to fly over and take a look.
A red light suddenly flew out of Harkness's body.
It shot into Ling Ye's body in an instant.
Ling Ye had no chance to react.
The next second, a mechanical voice sounded in his ear.
[Before his death, the son of the Demon King, Harkness, cast a Demon King's Curse on you, your attributes -50%, and you can be located by the demons at any time, and you will 100% attract the hatred of the demons. Damage from the demon family +100%. Once killed, 3 times your lifespan will be deducted.]
Ling Ye frowned slightly after hearing this.
Damn, he's already dead.
And he still gives himself a surprise before dying!
Opening the panel, sure enough, health, attack, and defense had all decreased by half.
It was still a 50% reduction of the total attributes after the bonus.
It was cut down by half directly.
This left Ling Ye speechless.
Fortunately, as a lord, his legions and heroes were strong enough.
There weren't many opportunities to participate in battles.
So, the attribute reduction didn't have much of an impact.
However, the Demon King's curse's positioning, attracting the hatred of the demons, +100% damage from the demon family, and the effect of deducting three times the lifespan upon death were a bit disgusting.
This meant that Ling Ye had a GPS installed on him.
As long as he went to a place with demons, he would immediately become the target of public criticism.
He would be chased and killed by demon series enemies.
The damage he received was also +100%, and if he died, he would lose three times his lifespan.
It was a mess, a bit difficult to handle.
Although these effects were not fatal to Ling Ye.
But the damage wasn't great, the insult was great, and there were many troubles.
Just as Ling Ye was scolding Harkness's mother in his heart.
Louise Elsa and Clea flew over.
They were also holding the spoils dropped by Harkness.
"Lord, your face doesn't seem very good," Clea asked with concern.
Ling Ye didn't hide anything and shared the Demon King's curse for the two to check.
The two women's pretty faces changed slightly after reading it.
"This is a curse?"
"Damn Harkness, he doesn't let people live in peace even when he's dead."
"Is there a way to remove it?" Ling Ye asked.
Clea spread her hands, indicating that she was helpless.
Louise Elsa said, "Ordinary purification techniques are ineffective against this level of curse."
"However, the chief priest of my Demon Empire may have a way."
"Lord, after the war is over, please come back to the Demon Empire with me! There must be a way to remove the curse."
Ling Ye nodded upon hearing this.
For now, this was the only way.
Coincidentally, there were also many opportunities in the Demon Empire.
After the merger, Ling Ye would definitely go there.
He immediately put the curse aside and looked at Louise Elsa and the two's hands.
"What did Harkness drop?"
The two quickly turned in the spoils.
There weren't many things, but they were all top-quality.
50 million magic crystals +, 50 million food +, a number of construction resources.
SSS-level crops *2, special weapon blueprints *1, special weapon essence *2000, time scroll *3000 hours.
Those who understand the above resources understand, no need to explain in detail.
The focus is on the following two items.
A title [Demon Slayer].
[Demon Slayer]: Can be obtained by killing important demon family characters. After equipping, it causes +50% damage to all abyss demon family enemies.
Titles are another item in the lord's world besides equipment, talents, characteristics, and totems that can collectively amplify the legion.
Different titles can be equipped infinitely.
+50% damage to demons, not bad.
Harkness's Demon King's curse allows demon enemies to deal +100% damage to Ling Ye.
And Ling Ye's Demon Slayer title can allow Ling Ye and his legion to deal +50% damage to demon enemies.
It's a mutual harm between the two sides.
Because of Harkness's appearance, there are still many demon family wild monsters around Undying City.
So, Ling Ye immediately equipped the Demon Slayer title.
The next reward, a divine equipment box.
Yes, you read that right, it's divine equipment.
This is a higher-level equipment than SSS equipment.
Extremely rare.
Ling Ye didn't expect to get one in the novice area.
Directly open it, a red light flashes.
Ling Ye's first divine equipment is in hand.
It is a magic necklace.
[Heart of Absolute Zero]: Health +100,000, Double Defense +5,000, Magic Attack +15,000, Equipment Attributes +100%, Additional Characteristic Absolute Zero Freeze, Releases Absolute Zero Air, Freezes an Entire Area, Deals Terrible Frost Damage, and Freezes and Slows Down.
Strong!
Too strong.
The added attributes are explosive.
And there is also a percentage bonus.
This is the power and charm of divine equipment.
All equipment below SSS level only adds attributes purely.
And divine equipment not only adds attributes, but also has a percentage bonus.
Double amplification, strong and elegant.
The magic necklace has the additional characteristics of frost damage, freezing, and slowing down.
It is most suitable for Jona.
Ling Ye immediately called Jona back and equipped her with the Heart of Absolute Zero.
The battle continued, and Ling Ye finally had time to open the friend bar.
The only two friends.
Su Xiaoyu, 25 unread messages.
Lin Muran, 12 unread messages.
They were all asking about his situation and whether he needed help.
Both of them sincerely worried about Ling Ye's safety.
They all asked if he needed them to come over and help.
Ling Ye found it a little funny.
What level are they at to help his Ling Ye.
But no matter what, their starting point was good.
So, Ling Ye uniformly replied: "The son of the Demon King is dead, the threat is eliminated."
Lin Muran and Su Xiaoyu, who received Ling Ye's reply, were numb.
Isn't this brother.
The son of the Demon King, Harkness, who came aggressively and powerfully, is gone just like that?
It's only been twenty minutes since he descended!
Su Xiaoyu still didn't believe it: "Big Brother Dark Night, are you really safe?"
"If needed, I can teleport over."
Ling Ye was also amused by this simple and cute little girl.
"What are you doing here? Freeloading my experience or freeloading my points?"
"Stay put! Protect yourself."
Hearing Ling Ye's teasing, Su Xiaoyu was relieved.
The subsequent battles, because of the Demon Slayer title and divine equipment contributed by the son of the Demon King Harkness.
The battle process can only be said to be easy and pleasant.
Time flies.
It came to 10 . on the 30th day.
Ling Ye finally reached level 30 and happily received his 30th gold entry.
[Weakening Aura]: The lord, legion, and hero will open an aura. Enemies entering the aura range will have their damage output -50%.
A good entry that can reduce enemy output and reduce enemy threats.
Further protect Ling Ye's legion.
At 3 . on the 30th day, Ling Ye successfully broke through 300 billion with the soaring ladder points of 360 miles, achieving the expected goal.
At 6 . on the 30th day, the monster wave event countdown returned to zero.
The monster wave assessment, which lasted 34 hours, finally ended.
Pinned announcements resounded through one novice area after another.
[The monster wave assessment is over. Congratulations to all the lords who survived. After the merger, you will become true lords.]
[The ladder points ranking has been finalized, and rewards will be distributed according to the ranking in 10 minutes.]
