Hyper-Dimensional Player-Chapter 514 - 87: Going Big This Time!

A legendary priest was actually backfired to death?

The witch, Gleya, looked profoundly shocked, gazing at Duncan, whose expression held a slight hint of regret. She couldn’t tell if it was accidental or if this man truly understood ritual magic so well that he could think of using such a method to break the curse. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

But Duncan simply wanted to slash monsters, and incidentally test how strong the enemy really was.

In the current era, the boundaries between divine techniques and magic aren’t clear, and many priests are like Imhotep from mummy movies, possessing mana themselves while also harnessing the power of divine spirits. Normally, it’s impossible to summon such a large number of undead; they must have relied on some portion of divine spirit power.

But since they dared to come, Duncan didn’t mind going on a killing spree.

With their current strength, fighting back to the Golden City is temporarily difficult. If they can’t severely damage the caster behind the scenes, it’s similar to being hunted by Nazgûl, which is always a troublesome matter.

At this moment, the marks of the curse on their bodies have completely disappeared.

Nonetheless, Duncan looked at the undead dissipating into dust, and those obvious underworld creatures with beast heads and human bodies, pondering: "Did they utilize Anubis’s divine power?"

Whether those killed by him can resurrect or not is uncertain.

The magic in this world is stronger than in the Root World. Compared to movies, there’s a film called "The Scorpion King," where he, having no options left, sold his soul to plead for Anubis’s power, summoning a wolf-headed army for revenge and eradicating his enemies.

The summoned effect isn’t as good as The Scorpion King, but it’s the second-best summoning spell Duncan has seen after King Solomon, mainly winning by quantity. If not encountering a bunch of extraordinarily corporeal barbarians, they’d definitely be exhausted to death here.

Dimension Space.

At this moment, Duncan’s human form’s mark has changed, directly condensing a five-star silver-gray mark, with an additional mark labeled ’Primal Warrior.’

— "Primal Warrior (Legendary Title): The primordial wild power saturates your entire body, greatly enhancing the limits of your strength and constitution. These two basic attributes will break through the limits of mortals."

— "Relentless Frenzy (Special Ability): The frenzied power enables you to continue fighting even when gravely injured and near death. When your life force drops to 0, as long as you pass the death immunity judgment, you will awaken potential life energy, gaining temporary life equivalent to twice the level of a Barbarian.

Conventional severe injuries won’t lead to your demise."

This counts as a regular ability for barbarians, because relentless frenzy requires a robust physique. Sometimes, even when barbarians are seemingly dying, they manage to get back up and slash at enemies—it is this ability that takes effect.

In terms of the resilience of life force, barbarians are considered top-notch within the human branches.

In some other worlds, barbarians have even pummeled beastman berserkers, but barbarians are ultimately just a minority civilization branch.

Human destiny is destined to embrace civilization.

One day, barbarians will gradually disappear.

— "Desperate Potential (Legendary Ability) (Wild Domain - Beast Branch): You overdraw your potential, frenzily entering a rampage state, unaffected by any external factors, greatly accelerating metabolism, erasing all fatigue and weakness statuses, and immunizing such effects. The frenzy duration extends according to constitution, ending with self-falling into a coma state."

(Can be normally activated after consuming all frenzy charges.)

Legendary ability of the Wild Domain.

The most primal beast nature, called desperate potential, is actually also a cornered beast fighting for survival.

If Duncan activates this ability, it means he’s truly cornered. It can still take effect after all frenzy abilities are used, directly squeezing life’s potential.

However, the cost is ’beast nature’ awakening, by which point the barbarian has returned to the ’terrifying upright ape’ state.

In primitive times, humans won because they were terrifying upright apes.

Their frenzied beast nature was no weaker than any enemy!

— "Savage Strike (Combat Skills): Branch one, Reckless Attack (Deadly Blow), branch two, Barbaric Knock (Knockback Knockdown), branch three, Tendon Sever Strike (Crippling)."

The original Great Frenzy mark transformed into Legendary Frenzy.

On the projection page.

When Duncan’s gaze fell on the symbol of the legendary mark, an extra imprint emerged on it.

— "Primal Fury (Celestial Destiny Legend) (Activated): The fury sparked by original wildness, representing the beastly side of all things, requires mastering the wild domain to activate. Your frenzy effects will break through the limits, from the original power constitution +8, rising to power constitution +12, and further enhancing as the Wild Domain progresses."

(Primal wildness will make you reckless and bloodthirsty. If unable to balance beast nature, the human form might fall into a rampaging slaughter state.)

Are there side effects?

Duncan’s expression was slightly grave; uncontrolled frenzy isn’t rare, and some have killed their wives and daughters by accident.

But Duncan was once an imperial emperor, who’s far better at controlling rationality than other barbarians.

Under normal circumstances, barbarians rarely lose control in frenzy; just they’re not that rational.

As his gaze continued downward, he saw something even harsher!

— "Spartan Fury (Extraordinary Divine Power) (Not Activated): The original power condensed from domains of war, battle, slaughter, etc. Spartans worship the War God Ares. In fury, they fall into an extraordinarily frenzied state, entering an extremely special god-like state. Additional effects: divine power dominion, divine power immunity, divine power shield, divine power heavy hit, etc."
