Chapter 724 - 687: Signing the Angel Contract
Even though Selvia’s advancement to God-level magic was expected, Da Fei had never felt such immense joy before.
Up to now, Da Fei had comprehended a considerable number of Master-level God-level skills. The first time he learned the God-level Reconnaissance Skill was undoubtedly his most rewarding, which helped him find the knack for mastering Master God-level skills. Yet, despite this, Da Fei still lacked confidence in mastering God-level skills.
Anlicia comprehended the God-level Magic by battling the Demigod Skira’s clone, largely due to her unique nature as an Epic Hero set up as a genius. Thus, even under identical circumstances while negotiating with the Demon Wolf, she advanced whereas Selvia did not, showcasing the difference in the Epic Hero setup.
Then there was Elena’s God-level Destruction Technique and his own God-level Navigator, and Deirdre’s Master-level Dark Magic, which were entirely due to "Advanced Insights," "special scrolls," and so on, all without any technical depth. Relying on achievements for Master advancement was even more devoid of technical depth. This was also the main method for advancing to Master during the public test, an unreliable approach that wasn’t usually attainable.
Now, for Selvia to complete her God-level advancement in such a special environment in conjunction with his hardly related God-level Navigator was a twist that was as exasperating as when he realized the God-level Luck Skill.
More importantly, this God-level Light Magic advancement opened up a fixed strategy for Da Fei—having a bunch of troops die, using his God-level Navigator skill, the survival will, to keep them from dying, and having a few Master-level Light Magic users constantly resurrect them, achieving God-level skills!
What can you call this? Power-leveling God-level Light Magic! A unique technique that utterly dominates! Across all the China Region, which professional asserts they can power-level God-level skills?
Asking for a commission to power-level a God-level Light Magic would cost a million! Oh wait, a million is too little; it has to be at least 1 million and 5 thousand, then the Hemorrhoid Ointment, Star Goddess would beg me on their knees! Ha-ha, woah ha ha!
Uh, wait, better not celebrate too soon! Considering the China Region, how many people have reached Master-level Light Magic? How many can come to the Divine Punishment City? There hardly seem to be opportunities to support juniors, it’s truly lonely at the top of the volcano!
After a brief celebration, it was time to test the power of the God-level Light Magic while the medicine was still effective, so a flash of gold appeared:
——System Prompt: Your Vice Hero Selvia has cast God-level Light Magic "Resurrection," reviving 12 Forest Goddess Army members!
Oh yeah! The whole party cheered! All the fallen troops were completely revived, and the God-level Light Magic fully broke through the volcanic environment’s influence—this is the power of God-level skills, woah ha ha ha!
Now, only the Wolf King remained howling weakly within the Holy Vine. It had taken two God-level spells from Elena and eleven Holy Vines, yet still managed to survive up to this point, proving its strength. Altogether, a worthy investment. Now that our army is entirely revived, morale like a rainbow, with the addition of a Wisdom Angel leader, regardless of the comparison of the forces or morale, it’s the perfect time for recruitment, what’s left is skills and luck.
Da Fei solemnly handed the Divine Power Staff to Selvia: "This is aid from the Divine Punishment City, the side effects of Divine Suppression are significant, but don’t worry, I’ll compensate you with the Life Book." Just consider it as the first period of your life, nothing to worry about!
Selvia accepted earnestly: "I will do my utmost!"
Da Fei nodded: "Good, we’ll first try standard methods for recruitment, if not possible then we’ll use the big move, so let’s get ready to start."
At this moment, Elifel spoke: "Lord, this is the Divine Power Staff, mortals can use divine arts three times with it, but they can’t bear the power of the divine and must pay a severe price, please proceed with caution."
Oh my! She’s immediately showing her Angel Honey functions, huh? I like it!
Da Fei laughed bitterly: "I have considered it carefully, but this is a last resort!"
Elifel immediately said: "Elifel can provide another suggestion. Since Lord Selvia recently advanced to God-level Light Magic, you now have access to the spell ’Angel Descent-Techniques,’ which grants the Angel Body for a limited time. When you cast Divine Suppression with Angel Body, the side effects of divine arts can be minimized."
Da Fei suddenly realized: "So that’s how the Angel Descent can be utilized!"
——Angel Descent: A God-level Light Magic spell that summons an angel to possess you, significantly enhancing your attributes, but has a lingering weakness period lasting over ten days after casting. It is essentially a weaker version of the "Divine Descent." The duration and intensity of the Angel Possession depend on the player’s hero’s magic power and knowledge total value.
The Angel Descent technique, during public testing touted as Ultraman Transformation Skill, offers a few minutes of intense excitement at the cost of one or two days of real-time weariness, making it crucial in key battles. Yet its immense side effects lead to considerable controversy, and with insufficient magic power knowledge value, the angel’s duration and strength are inadequate, diminishing its cost-effectiveness.
So considering the painful side effects, Da Fei frowned: "But my campaign in this Hell Volcano can’t be concluded in the short term. The side effects of the Angel Descent technique could render Selvia ineffective in the later phases."
Elifel responded: "The high side effects of the Angel Descent for mortals are primarily due to the overwhelming power of the descending angel, which mortals can’t bear, plus temporarily summoned angels may not necessarily align with the summoner. Therefore, Elifel can further suggest, would the lord allow Elifel to enter into an angelic contract with Lord Selvia?"
Da Fei was astonished, an angelic contract?
Elifel continued: "As long as you possess God-level Light Magic, you can contract with an angel. If you contract with Elifel, then when Lord Selvia uses Angel Descent, Elifel will be the designated possessor. Although Elifel is far from the power of descending angels and the effect is not as strong as a standard Angel Descent, we can grow and progress together, minimizing spell side effects. What do you think, lord?"
Da Fei finally realized, so this was all about promoting herself! So this is the deep meaning of a BOSS-level angel huh? Da Fei hurriedly asked: "Once an angelic contract is signed, you won’t die, right?"
Elifel laughed: "Angels don’t die, they just have their angel spirit return to Heaven after defeat. However, with an angelic contract, even if Elifel is defeated, she won’t return to Heaven, she will remain by Lord Selvia’s side as an angel spirit, waiting for Lord Selvia to summon and revive her again—in short, she won’t die."
Da Fei burst into laughter! So that’s how it is! Simply having the perk of ’won’t die’ is enough to win me over! Growing and progressing together is just my favorite thing, this is the joy of nurturing a beauty! And once it’s contracted, when I and Selvia get cozy, isn’t that basically a "double Da Fei"? Haha, woah ha ha ha!
Without hesitation, Da Fei agreed: "Agreed! Selvia, what’s your take on this?"
Selvia nodded excitedly: "Agreed! I’m deeply honored to be contracted with Angel Lady!"
Elifel was even happier: "I will give my utmost assistance to Lord Selvia. Let us commence the contract ceremony now."
With that, Elifel took out a shimmering Magic Book, its golden light flashing as a golden array appeared on the ground.
"Lord Selvia, please step into the array and place your hand on the contract scroll."
"Oh!" Selvia complied, stepping into the array and completing the operation, then the Magic Book flashed, and the array disappeared.
Elifel presented the Magic Book to Selvia: "The contract is complete; I am now your Contract Angel. Please keep this Angel Contract safe. If Elifel is ever defeated, Lord Selvia can summon me again with this scroll."
Selvia excitedly affirmed: "Understood!"
The whole troupe burst into applause and cheers! Da Fei was even more moved by how simple contracting was! Then perhaps Deirdre’s Demon Contract Book is a similar thing? At that moment, Da Fei vaguely thought of a way that might persuade Bloodrose to hand over her Contract. But now was not the time to dwell on other matters, it was time to recruit the Wolf King!
