Chapter 334: Building the [Holy Lord] Class, Brain

Looking at the experience gained on his stat panel, Tang Zheng couldn't hide his surprise.
Crack!
Crack!
As the ritual ended, the various magical materials used to set it up emitted a dense series of sounds, like shattering glass, before crumbling into piles of powder.
"By repeating this process, I can gain 1.5 million experience points a day… Hiss…"
Tang Zheng’s heart couldn't help but skip a few beats. The loss of a few magical materials was completely insignificant.
For him, currently short on experience, this was a godsend.
Tang Zheng's "Goblin Rearing Plan" in the Great Forest of Tob, and his current indirect control over the Abelion Hills, were both preparations for this farming plan.
But "rearing" takes time. With less than three years remaining, relying solely on farming Goblins was completely insufficient to gain enough experience to reach level 100!
It would inevitably require wiping out a large number of demi-humans to make up for the experience deficit.
To deal with the future crisis.
Tang Zheng certainly didn't mind slaughtering these demi-human races that posed a threat to humans, but he was also aware of the consequences that such a large-scale slaughter would entail.
It was highly likely to attract attention from multiple factions!
The situation in this world was far too complex.
Not to mention the publicly known True Dragon Lord, or the Dragon Emperor and Benevolent Mother, about whom information was scarce.
Players descended every 100 years, but that didn't necessarily mean only one wave of Players arrived each time. What Tang Zheng found most baffling was that all these descended Players seemed to die or disappear within the 100-year period of their arrival.
Due to their limited lifespans, the human race indeed couldn't survive for too long, but that didn't mean all the Players who descended were human!
According to reliable information, the Dark God, one of the Six Great Gods—an undead with a class build like the Bone King's, who had no lifespan limit—had died at the hands of the Eight Greed Kings.
This matter was strange in itself.
Tang Zheng returned to his senses, knowing that the most important thing right now was to increase his strength. It was pointless to overthink anything else.
Seeing the ritual had been a complete success, Tang Zheng, after his excitement subsided, immediately initiated the "Spiral of Death Ritual" again, using up his remaining two magical opportunities in succession.
He gained another million experience, bringing his total to over two million.
Level up!
Tang Zheng stared at his stat panel. With a thought, a massive amount of experience began to be consumed. Waves of life aura, each stronger than the last, radiated out from him.
An invisible aura faintly formed with Tang Zheng at its center, briefly distorting the air around him!
In an instant.
He gained three levels in a row!
——
Comprehensive Level: 48Lv
[Experience Slot: 478160/610000]
Skill Points: 64→73
Class: Holy Knight: 7Lv, Dark Knight 1Lv…
——
"[Holy Knight] is just three levels away. I can get it to max level within the next two days," Tang Zheng thought with certainty.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
He accumulated 1.5 million experience on the first day and only collected 500,000 on the second, since that was all he needed.
"Level up," Tang Zheng murmured.
[Experience Slot: 2478160/610000]
↓
[Experience Slot: 478160/730000]
After leveling up past level 50, the experience required per level increased from 50,000 to 70,000.
His comprehensive level reached 51, and the Mid-Tier Job Class [Holy Knight] also reached level 10!
Ohm—
The stat panel vibrated.
『Class Build Requirements Met』
Tang Zheng's eyes lit up, though he wasn't surprised. As expected, this kind of standard class build could be completely deduced through class information.
『The [Genius] Job Class has been converted to [Paladin].』
『Class Build Achieved—Low-Tier Job Class [Paladin 10Lv], Mid-Tier Job Class [Holy Knight 10Lv]』
『Triggering High-Tier Job Class: Holy Lord』
『Accept this job class?』
"Holy Lord?"
Seeing the resulting High-Tier Job Class, Tang Zheng's expression suddenly darkened a little.
"I hope it's not the class I'm thinking of."
"Accept the class!"
…………
Class: Holy Lord
Level: High-Tier Job Class
Ability Effects:
Passive·
Faith's Protection: When HP drops to half, immediately restore 20% of HP and remove all personal debuffs (1/day).
Sacred Judgment: Deal an additional 10% damage to all enemies that are undead or have a negative Positive Karma Value.
Aura of Light: Holy-attribute offensive skills and magic receive a certain enhancement bonus. Gain 20% Dark Attribute Resistance.
Active Skill:
Luminous Sword: Summons a holy sword of light to crash down on the target area, dealing physical and holy attribute damage to enemies within the range and inflicting the "Blindness" debuff.
Description: When a knight can no longer eradicate evil and is trapped in self-blame and crisis, in the name of the "Lord," I shall judge all sins with absolute light.
(Note: For every level increased, the four attributes (MP, HP, Physical Defense, Magic Defense) increase by 15 points.)
…………
"It really is this class." Tang Zheng's face grew even darker.
He had been a little uncertain before, but after seeing the class name and the "Luminous Sword" skill, he was completely sure.
This was the class possessed by Selabrei, the leader of the Dragon Kingdom's sole Adamantite-rank Adventurer Team, 「Crystal Tear」.
"I didn't expect [Holy Lord] to be a High-Tier Job Class. After all, people in the Otherworld who possess a High-Tier Job Class are exceedingly rare."
That was ten levels of experience!
Tang Zheng could have directly acquired this class from Selabrei himself.
"Whatever. It's just a waste of three or four million experience points, which is only two or three days' worth anyway," Tang Zheng said to himself magnanimously. Only then did he carefully examine the class information.
If this were in the past, a loss of three or four million experience points would have been enough to make him ache for a long time!
"A High-Tier Job Class built from a Low-Tier and a Mid-Tier class is indeed stronger than the [Magic Swordsman] class, which is built from two basic job classes."
"But compared to [Cursed Knight], it's certainly a bit weaker."
This wasn't Tang Zheng's first time obtaining a High-Tier Job Class, so he could instantly analyze the class's level and quickly discover its core.
"As expected of a tank class."
Tang Zheng noticed the information on the passive, Faith's Protection, and immediately connected it to the passive of the Mid-Tier Job Class [Holy Knight], Power of Faith.
The effects of the two were similar. Both triggered when HP fell below half; one instantly restored 10% of HP, while the other restored 20%.
With the two passives from [Holy Knight] and [Holy Lord] combined, it was equivalent to instantly restoring 30% of HP when it dropped to half.
Furthermore, when the passive abilities were activated, Power of Faith could increase healing effects by 100%, and Faith's Protection could clear debuffs.
Combined with the basic job [Paladin], the two classes clearly had the bonuses of a standard class build.
"A pity."
Tang Zheng shook his head.
He was indeed tempted by the combined passive ability to "instantly restore 30% HP," but he wouldn't keep the Mid-Tier Job Class just for this one passive.
