Chapter 49: The Final Struggle

“93%”

The Main Quest progress had jumped to an unprecedented height, and also a terrifying height.

Since the Trial World of the 1888 London Foggy Night was created by the World Tree, because the series of quests for Radiance of Lux had never been excavated, the Main Quest progress of this Trial World had never exceeded 60%.

Although various Trialists had explored in this Trial World, wanting to achieve 100% progress, no one ever succeeded.

No one would be so down on their luck as to drill into a small building to change clothes, and then no one would be able to discover the note deep in the pocket.

Without that note, nothing would be triggered, the battle between Jack and Farrah would never be replayed in this Trial World, and history would not change.

Next, if the Trialists did not go to read Lux’s notes, they would not be able to activate the Key at all, and Lux’s Radiance quest would also be interrupted here.

Even if the Trialists had read this note, if they did not memorize the content of every page like Xiao Fen and be able to replay it in their minds at any time, they would not be able to stack the difficulty of the Radiance of Lux quest.

If the difficulty was not high and not many Stitched Monsters were killed, even if Jack appeared, Farrah would not appear, and the final Trial World Main Quest progress would still not exceed 80%.

It can be said that this quest progress is not only unprecedented, but in the foreseeable time, it will also be unattainable.

However, Xiao Fen felt no pride at all regarding such a record.

If the progress did not reach 100%, Jack would not be dead, and if Jack was not dead, everyone present would probably not escape his clutches.

He suddenly turned his head to look at Farrah and asked: “Jack isn’t completely dead yet, can’t you do it again?”

Farrah turned his head with difficulty to look at Xiao Fen, raised the Blade of Doom in his hand, and the eye that had once appeared on the weapon appeared again, glancing at Xiao Fen, seemingly with a strange smile.

Then, before the smile in the eye dissipated, this dagger, which was simple to the extreme, suddenly shattered, turning into five-colored light that evaporated away.

“I am only close to the gods, not a true god, unable to perform ‘Creation’, at most only Tempering; although weapons that have undergone Tempering are powerful, they can only be used once, boy, now it is your turn.”

As Farrah answered, he fell on his back to the sky, and the pale blue light in his eye sockets quickly dimmed.

Even his body began to show signs of evaporating and disappearing.

Xiao Fen looked at Farrah’s changes in disbelief and asked in a low voice: “Are you going to die?”

Farrah let out a laugh accompanied by violent coughing, and asked in return: “Do you think what kind of life can still survive after losing the vast majority of its body? As Yggdrasil’s Gatekeeper, before this, I was responsible for monitoring the situation of Yggdrasil’s fragment in London, and now, I also face my own death calmly, however, boy, now is not the time to discuss this, ensuring the radiance of Yggdrasil is now all up to you.”

Xiao Fen paused for a moment and responded: “What can I do? Jack the Ripper is a Legendary Awakened, a small Trialist like me can’t do anything, right?”

“No, you can do it, boy, create your daggers, rush over, cause him as much damage as possible, that is what you can do.”

Xiao Fen glanced at the daggers in his hand and said in a low voice: “Although I know the spell to create daggers, I don’t know what kind of damage I can cause to Jack, and whether such damage is meaningful for a Legendary Awakened; you know, I am just a Level 1 Trialist, and Legend is too far away for me.”

“Don’t know, so you don’t do it? Boy, if you are always like this, you will achieve nothing, no, it should be said, you have achieved nothing until now, because you always escape at the most critical moments, listen, escaping solves no problems; if you don’t give Jack more damage, the one who dies in the end will be you, not Jack.”

Xiao Fen exhaled a long breath and said: “Alright, I’ll do it, tell me, how to do it.”

“Listen, don’t blindly increase Agility just because the increase in Agility has a bonus effect on daggers; for us who use daggers, the function of the Heart of Yarlann is only to break through the opponent’s defense, and the subsequent damage should be handed over to the other dagger.

So, Agility doesn’t need to be too high; being able to better coordinate your body and movements, and being enough to break the opponent’s defense is fine; on this basis, you need to increase your Strength to give you more explosive power, faster movements, and the ability to cause more damage in a shorter time.”

Xiao Fen raised his eyebrows, completely unexpected that at this moment he could still receive guidance from a Legendary Awakened, and these teachings happened to brighten his eyes, resolving many previous doubts.

“I have an Intermediate Strength Potion that increases Strength by 15.”

“15 points of Strength? Uh, meaningless to me, but for a Trialist, it can be considered a quite significant increase; use it, then, create a dagger to thrust and break Jack’s defense, and then create another dagger to cause greater damage on the wound made by the first dagger.”

Xiao Fen did not hesitate at all; he took out the Intermediate Strength Potion obtained from the previous key opening from his bag and stabbed it into his arm; instantly after the severe pain, he tightly grasped the two daggers and chanted in a low voice.

“Miracle of Norton, Create, Heart of Yarlann.”

“Miracle of Norton, Create, Withered Flower.”

Two black lights suddenly emerged from the daggers in his hand, and then, Xiao Fen could clearly feel that the daggers in his hand began to vibrate violently.

His spirit at that instant seemed to extend onto the two daggers, and the created daggers seemed to merge with Xiao Fen’s arms at that moment.

Because the dizziness from injecting the Intermediate Strength Potion had just ended, Xiao Fen didn’t even look at the changes in the daggers in his hand, nor did he have the mind to understand the various data of the dagger changes; he lowered his body slightly, and the next moment, like a lightning bolt piercing the darkness, he suddenly rushed out.

In two seconds, he crossed a distance of 30 meters and rushed onto Jack’s broken body, which had no reaction; the dagger in his right hand flashed, and he stabbed fiercely into the only eye socket still shining on the skull.

With a “hiss”, the last eye on Jack’s skull was pierced by Xiao Fen.

Xiao Fen paid no attention to Jack’s heart-tearing scream of pain; the knife light in his left hand flashed, and he stabbed down close to the wound created by the right-hand dagger.

“Your Mental Attribute differs too much from Jack the Ripper; you will not be able to obtain the other party’s specific data.”
