"Has the Holy Profession's Purification Technique been tried? Can it expel the Blood Curse state?" Boundless asked.
The beautiful woman nodded slightly, her breath as fragrant as orchids, and said, "We tried, but it cannot be removed completely and each Purification Technique only delays it for about five minutes."
"Right now, we have over nine hundred Professionals here, among whom at least over two hundred brothers are afflicted with the Blood Curse, yet there are fewer than fifty Priests!"
"Though we can barely hold on, if it continues like this, everyone can only rely on the Priests' Purification Technique to sustain life."
Upon hearing this, Boundless also felt extremely troubled, and he glanced at his own status bar.
[State]: Blood Curse Level 3, All Attributes reduced by 20%, in 1 hour and 34 minutes, you will be transformed into a Blood Thrall.
In the recent battle, as a melee unit, Boundless inevitably got hit by the attacks from those monsters.
The Blood Curse, as a negative state, is really unreasonable.
Even a slight touch from those monsters' attacks results in a 20% reduction in attributes, and it cannot be completely cleared.
Even he has no solution.
Boundless sighed and said, "I see, let the brothers hold on for now, and let's see later if there's any other way to resolve this curse."
"I will summon more brothers to come over; right now, the more people there are, the greater the chance to withstand the impact of the Blood Tide Monsters."
The beautiful woman gave Boundless a sidelong glance with her charming eyes after hearing this.
She nodded gently and then retreated.
At this moment, it was not only 'Kunlun' where Boundless was that faced such a predicament.
Many of those large teams also successfully resisted the first wave of monsters' assault.
Of course, they too suffered many casualties.
The survivors bore three to four layers, or even five or six layers of the Blood Curse state on their bodies.
But fortunately, the first wave of Blood Tide Monsters' impact was finally resisted by everyone.
At this moment, cries of despair filled the chat channel.
"Oh my god... Finally survived!"
"Too tragic, really too tragic... Our team had nearly a hundred people, plus over a thousand relatives, and in the end, fewer than fifty survived..."
"Same goes for us, we barely withstood the monsters' assault thanks to a few catapults, but nearly half of us died too."
The Survivors who encountered the Blood Tide Monsters recounted their tragic encounters in the chat channel.
At that moment, a Survivor named Shadow Companion spoke up.
"Brothers, I can't hold on any longer..."
"My wife and children died right in front of me, I watched them turn into those terrifying monsters, and I myself am cursed with the Blood Curse, with not long to live."
"Now, I am standing at the edge of my territory, and I'll jump off to accompany them soon."
"I've taken off all my equipment, left it in the territory, along with all my belongings, the coordinates are 412212, 14522, 55321, if any brother is nearby, feel free to take them."
"I hope these things can help you. Goodbye, and I hope you all can live better in this world..."
Upon hearing his heavy words, everyone in the chat channel tried to offer comfort.
"Brother, please don't, try to see it through, you're not the only one facing this, everyone is having a tough time right now..."
"Yeah, stay strong, never give up on life easily!"
"Brother, I'm from the Biological Series, I've already discovered the secret to longevity in this world!"
"We Survivors from Blue Star, every time we level up, our body's power increases, this isn't just a simple enhancement, it's more like directly enhancing cell strength!"
"Especially the transformation from level 10 to 11, it's like completing a higher-level evolution of life!"
"If we can continue to fight and grow stronger, constantly fortifying our cells, living a thousand or even eight hundred years is no dream!"
"So, you must live on, just get through this disaster, and you'll have a few hundred years of beautiful time left!"
However, the Survivor named Shadow Companion didn't seem to see the comforting messages from everyone.
After saying those words, his avatar dimmed...
A sigh resonated throughout the chat channel.
And then, the system prompt reappeared.
"Attention Survivors, the new expansion pack 'Blood Tide' has been updated."
"Update Content 1: The Battle Merit leaderboard is now open, upon killing Blood Tide Monsters, Survivors can earn corresponding Battle Merit."
"Killing 1 Ordinary Monster = 1 Battle Merit; Elite Monster = 10 Battle Merits; Leader Monster = 100 Battle Merits; Lord-level Monster = 5000 Points!"
"Note: Killing monsters above Lord Level grants 1 Human Race exclusive Sacred Artifact Fragment; demolishing 1 Blood Tide Altar grants 10 Human Race exclusive Sacred Artifact Fragments."
"Note: Sacred Artifact Fragments are non-tradable."
"Collecting 10,000 Human Race exclusive Sacred Artifact Fragments grants a Human Race exclusive Sacred Artifact."
"Rewards for this leaderboard will be distributed according to ranking upon victory of the Blood Tide campaign."
"If the campaign fails, all humans on Blue Star die..."
The first update left tens of billions of people on Blue Star utterly shocked.
After the last Cloud Secret Realm leaderboard, a new leaderboard appeared!
This time, it turned out to be based on killing Blood Tide Monsters to earn Battle Merit.
Moreover, they heard of the Human Race exclusive Sacred Artifact!
Prior to this, they had at most heard of Golden Legends, Orange Epics, and even Red Divine Artifacts.
Could Sacred Artifacts be even more advanced than Divine Artifacts?
For a moment, an unknown number of people's curiosity was piqued.
