199: Chapter 199 Lucifer!

On the tenth day, Lu Yin woke up early.

He was now only one step away from Level 80.

This step was of extraordinary significance to him.

New skills and the eighth Legion Commander would be another trump card against Di Gulov.

Without any hesitation, he entered the Dungeon directly.

The repeating scenes and battles were already etched into Lu Yin's mind.

Inside the temple, the radiance remained, solemn and eternal.

The Athena Projection stood silently ahead, her golden figure surrounded by divine power as always.

But in his heart, it no longer stirred even the slightest ripple.

Ten days of bloody battle had carved every detail of this temple and the projection of this deity into his very marrow.

In the silent standoff, the battle was on the verge of breaking out.

Without any command, the seven Legion Commanders were in perfect sync with Lu Yin's thoughts.

Krausi's Arrow of Silence shrieked through the air, followed closely by the dark tide of Hill's Gospel of the End.

The killing moves of Ying, Ye, Herl, Kasa, and Yarberna erupted with the precision of perfectly calculated gears!

-1687521! -314589! -4120033!

...

Damage numbers jumped frantically; the divine power shield around the Athena Projection shook violently, showing cracks faster than ever before.

She showed no anger or surprise, merely raising the spear of victory.

Boundless divine power began to gather and compress frantically around her, the space groaning under the unbearable weight.

“Oracle...”

Just as the Athena Projection opened her lips, Lu Yin's figure cut into the perfect distance of ten meters before her like a ghost.

“Momentary Eternity!”

Silver light bloomed, and time froze. This timing was flawless.

It caught the exact moment when the vast divine power of Oracle: Heavenly Punishment was about to erupt but had not yet finished its final shaping.

It was like a needle precisely puncturing a balloon about to burst.

The surging golden divine light around the Athena Projection suddenly froze, showing an unnatural distortion.

In those emotionless golden eyes, an extremely faint ripple seemed to spread.

Now!

Without needing any orders, the seven Legion Commanders behind him and the over 15,000 Meidou Shi who were already prepared unleashed their strongest attacks simultaneously!

Countless strands of pitch-black death energy converged into a torrent that swallowed light, crashing into the frozen divine body.

354121! -678452! -125896!

...

Dense damage numbers cascaded down like a waterfall, nearly drowning out the Athena Projection's figure.

Lu Yin himself turned into a phantom, advancing through the gaps of the frozen time.

The blade of eternal silence was in his hand at some point, its blade flowing with a luster darker than the abyss.

“Death Flash!”

A sharp glint flashed in his eyes as his body and the blade light merged into one.

Like a pitch-black thread tearing through space, he swept past the Athena Projection's neck.

There was no earth-shattering roar, only a slight sound like the tearing of silk.

326547655!

A massive crimson number, a terrifying value completely different from the other damage numbers, suddenly jumped out!

It ended the match instantly.

【Ding! You have killed the Athena Projection. Experience points increased by 1.2 billion (-2%)!】

【Ding! Congratulations, the host's level has increased to Level 80!】

【Ding! Death Legion Commander slot unlocked!】

【Learned Skill: Soul of Deaths End!】

【Learned Skill: Chaotic Dance of Time and Space!】

【Death Space capacity increased, 1567/24170!】

【Ding! Obtained loot: stone of god ×1!】

The system notification sounded like heavenly music, echoing in the empty temple.

Lu Yin stood amidst the dissipating golden light dust, slowly sheathing his blade.

The blade of eternal silence let out a faint hum, as if echoing this tenth day and this breakthrough to Level 80.

He first looked at the newly acquired skills.

【Soul of Deaths End (Level 1): Condenses the power of dead souls to deal large-scale damage. Damage is determined by condensation time. Cooldown: 1 day. Mana cost: 1,000 points.】

【Chaotic Dance of Time and Space (Level 1): Swings multiple slashes that sever time and space, dealing physical damage equal to (Skill Level × Attack Power + All Attributes) to the target. Cooldown: 1 day. Mana cost: 1,000 points.】

“An AoE skill and a powerful single-target output skill, not bad.”

After reading the skill descriptions, Lu Yin nodded with satisfaction.

But what he looked forward to even more was his eighth Legion Commander.

“Death Legion Commander slot unlocked. Would you like to perform the summoning immediately?”

The system prompt appeared at the right time.

“Summon.” Lu Yin did not hesitate at all.

The moment Lu Yin's thought fell, the temperature of the entire temple plummeted.

A massive pitch-black magic circle appeared, and what surged forth was not the usual wave of death filled with murderous intent.

Instead, it was a deep, restrained darkness carrying an ancient and elegant order.

Light converged in front of Lu Yin, and a slender figure quickly solidified within it.

The first thing that caught his eye was a black tailcoat that was perfectly tailored.

The collar of the white shirt was tied with a standard Windsor knot, and the collar and cuffs were meticulously snow-white.

He wore a pair of pristine white gloves, his hands elegantly folded in front of him.

When the light stabilized, a man with a handsome, almost eerie appearance revealed himself.

He looked to be around thirty years old, with a slightly pale complexion.

But his facial features were deep and chiseled, and his jet-black short hair was combed back, neat without a single strand out of place.

Most striking were his eyes; the pupils were pure ink-black, yet they seemed to contain a tranquil abyss capable of sucking in souls.

Behind him, six pairs of retracted black wings hung quietly.

The edges of the wings shimmered with an almost imperceptible dark luster, revealing his identity before he entered Lu Yin's service.

He leaned forward slightly, his movements fluid and precise, not a fraction more or less than necessary.

With his right hand lightly pressed against his left chest, he gave Lu Yin an impeccable greeting.

“I thank my Lord for not abandoning me.”

His voice was gentle and clear, with a peculiar magnetic quality that could soothe anxiety.

“The Great Steward of Death, Lucifer, is at your service.”

Lu Yin looked at the great steward before him, whose posture was elegant to the point of being rigid.

His gaze lingered for a moment on the six pairs of retracted black wings behind him.

There was no need for further explanation; Lu Yin understood his identity.

He just hadn't expected the former Archangel to now be his steward.

Then, he turned his gaze toward Lucifer's attribute panel.
