Rebirth Cross
"This kid." Mu Tianxing furrowed his brow slightly. "His killing intent is a bit heavy."
"Although what he did today was satisfying, it might affect his image."
"People will definitely talk behind his back and call him brutal."
"Brutal." Li Weixian scoffed.
"One should be brutal when dealing with enemies."
"Kill them until they are terrified, kill them until they dare not show their faces."
"I don't think Lin Yuan did anything wrong."
"In a life-or-death battle, you shouldn't show mercy."
"The reason he treated Paimon this way was to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys."
"Anyone who wants to trouble Lin Yuan or the people around him in the future will definitely consider whether it's worth it."
"Whether they can withstand Lin Yuan's explosive retaliation."
Li Weixian crossed his arms and added,
"Besides, do you think Lin Yuan cares about such superficial fame?"
"He always acts as he pleases and doesn't care what others think."
"On the contrary, we, and even the Professionals of Tianfeng City, now rely on him."
"When Lin Yuan appears before the public, do you think people will fear him or worship him?"
Mu Tianxing didn't even need to think.
The answer he got must be worship,
worship like that of zealots.
Lin Yuan's deeds were truly too legendary.
It had only been a little over a month since he became a Professional,
yet he had reached heights that many Professionals could never achieve in a lifetime.
As long as Lin Yuan lived,
the Dungeons in Tianfeng City would increase,
and the leveling speed of the Professionals would also accelerate.
This was the power of the son of destiny.
One person influencing a city, or even a nation... Paimon's body was huge.
The darkkin demon sword cut for a full ten minutes before reaching the neck.
Paimon was still unconscious.
Lin Yuan activated Roar of Courage,
"Wake up!"
Paimon instantly sobered up.
Pain!
It was too painful!
The unbearable agony forced Paimon to let out a wail.
"You demon!"
"Damn it, kill me quickly!"
"I beg you, kill me now!"
"I was wrong, I'm garbage, I'm a good-for-nothing."
"I'm just a maggot who only hides in filthy sewers."
"Please, let me go."
As Paimon spoke, tears of regret streamed from his eyes.
If he could do it all over again,
he definitely wouldn't have challenged Lin Yuan to a duel.
No,
he would never take a single step into Xia Kingdom,
and he would never see Lin Yuan again in this life!
But now it was too late to say anything.
If only he had known, why did he act that way in the first place?
Lin Yuan looked at Paimon in this state.
His face was devoid of emotion.
The weak couldn't even choose the right way to die.
"Since I said I would slice you up, I will slice you up."
"No one can stop me."
The demon sword continued cutting.
Under the effect of Roar of Courage, Paimon was exceptionally lucid.
He clearly felt the flesh on his body being sliced off piece by piece.
The skin-cutting pain penetrated his soul.
Previously, the pain had caused him to faint.
But now, being forcibly awakened by Roar of Courage,
falling unconscious had become a luxury.
"I curse you, you demon! May you fall into the bottomless abyss."
"May your soul be drawn out by demons and tormented day and night in the Flame of Annihilation."
"May you never reincarnate!"
After speaking, Paimon mustered his courage,
and used the last of his soul power to trigger self-destruction.
With a soft puff,
like someone passing gas,
the less than half-remaining dragon head instantly exploded.
Paimon truly could not endure the torment,
choosing to end himself.
His soul was completely annihilated.
After Paimon died,
a palm-sized gray cross appeared in his place.
Lin Yuan waved his hand.
The cross flew into his hand.
[Rebirth Cross - Special]
[Quality: legendary]
[attributes: all attributes +1000, Luck +1]
[trait 1: Upon health points reaching 0, enters Soul Recall State, allowing active resurrection on the spot. cooldown of one month (Current cooldown remaining: one month)]
(This item is Soul-Bound. It takes effect when placed in the backpack and is dropped upon death.)
"Rebirth Cross." Lin Yuan narrowed his eyes.
"No wonder he could resurrect."
A legendary-grade item capable of resurrection,
this was a divine artifact that countless people dreamed of.
If Paimon had resurrected,
and honestly found a place to hide and improve his strength,
relying on the Rebirth Cross,
his future achievements certainly wouldn't have been low.
But he relied on his high level and chose to duel Lin Yuan,
and chose the stupidest method.
He was tortured and killed by Lin Yuan,
and the Rebirth Cross fell into Lin Yuan's hands.
Captain Dragonfly descended from the sky and announced loudly,
"What a fair and just battle!"
"Let us congratulate Lin Yuan on winning this duel."
After announcing Lin Yuan's victory,
Captain Dragonfly vanished.
However, the Arena still hadn't disappeared,
because an option appeared before Lin Yuan.
[Your fighting style has attracted the attention of the God of Justice Forseti]
[The God of Justice Forseti sends you an invitation to become his Spokesperson]
[Yes/No to becoming the Spokesperson of the God of Justice Forseti]
[If Yes is selected, Class changes to Hand of Justice, gaining partial abilities of the God of Justice Forseti]
[If No is selected, gain scales of justice (Special Item)]
"Hand of Justice?" Lin Yuan stroked his chin and fell into thought.
The god of courage tyr had also previously sent Lin Yuan a Spokesperson invitation.
Becoming Tyr's Spokesperson,
the Class would change to Hand of Tyr,
gaining partial power from Tyr.
Today, he encountered the invitation from the God of Justice Forseti again.
What was going on?
Were the gods all so idle,
wandering around everywhere looking for Spokespersons?
Lin Yuan glanced at A Li and the others.
He apologized to Freyja,
"I truly wish to become a member under Lord Freyja, but sadly, I cannot bear to leave my companions."
"However, I personally greatly admire Lord Freyja. If Your Excellency has any temporary errands, I am duty-bound to assist."
Last time, Lin Yuan rejected Tyr's invitation too decisively.
Thinking about it afterward, it felt like a loss.
Even if the deal fails, goodwill remains.
Although he refused,
it didn't stop him from taking on some part-time work.
Humans have human troubles.
Gods definitely have godly troubles too.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be looking for Spokespersons.
Lin Yuan had thought carefully.
There must be some things that the gods find inconvenient to handle themselves,
or are unable to handle.
That's where the role of the Spokesperson came in.
Although Lin Yuan could not become Freyja's Spokesperson,
that didn't prevent Lin Yuan from working for Freyja.
Look,
Lin Yuan had instantly elevated himself to the level of running errands for a god.
His scope had immediately broadened.
Freyja seemed not to have expected Lin Yuan to refuse,
and even less that Lin Yuan would refuse yet still want part-time work.
This instantly made Freyja even more interested in Lin Yuan.
"Interesting kid." A slightly playful voice sounded in Lin Yuan's ear.
Following this, Lin Yuan found two extra items in his hand.
One was the scales of justice made of gold,
and the other was a Gold Coin engraved with the word "Justice" on both sides.
