When everyone saw this guy pull out a knife handle, they were not sure what he was going to do.

But when they saw his aggressive look, they all retreated back, leaving a space in the center of the venue.

"This was given to me by a drunkard Dark Iron Dwarf who was beaten half to death after he owed gambling debts."

Johnny Depp held up the hilt of the knife and declared loudly to the crowd.

"The dwarves say it possesses magical powers, so I'd like to use it as a prize and challenge you to a duel. If you win, the hilt is yours. If you lose, your staff of perfect recovery will be mine. Mr. Priest, do you dare?"

You take me for a fool, Alvin thought.

Just as I was about to refuse, I suddenly felt that the handle of the knife looked very familiar.

After taking a closer look, Alvin was shocked and even felt that all the blood in his body was rushing to his brain!

That is the hilt of the shadow priest's artifact - Xal'atath, Blade of the Black Empire!

Xal'atath, Blade of the Black Empire.

It is said that the history of this artifact can be traced back to ancient times. At that time, the planet Azeroth had not yet been discovered by the Titans, but the Void Lords had already planted the seeds of corruption on this planet, which later evolved into several ancient gods.

Some people say that Sartharion is one of the ancient gods, while others say that she is actually the evil horn dropped from the most powerful ancient god, Azrael.

In short, although the traces of Xal'atath disappeared from this world for a long time, she did not completely die.

All that remained of it was a dagger-like claw, which contained the remaining will and power of the ancient god - the current Blade of the Dark Empire of Xal'atath.

Throughout the long history, every time this dagger appeared, it was accompanied by terrible disasters.

Xal'atath's appearance is chilling.

The handle of the dagger is made of black metal, and the surface is engraved with ancient runes. These runes flicker strangely in the dim light.

The tip was a sharp claw, ready to tear through anything at any moment. The entire dagger exuded a powerful void energy, as if whispering the secrets of the ancient gods.

What's even more peculiar is that the power of Xal'atath is not limited to physical destruction. It can also erode the will of the holder, turning him into a puppet of the ancient gods.

Throughout history, many who have attempted to control Xal'atath have ultimately been corrupted by him and driven to madness.

Even so, Xal'atath still attracts countless ambitious adventurers who hope to use the power of this dagger to realize their ambitions.

The question is why is this dagger in the hands of this funny guy?

"Are you kidding me? With a handle without a blade?"

"There's a limit to joking. This Perfect Recovery Staff is a family heirloom of our Starwish family! It's the weapon my mother once wielded!"

Solanlian smiled.

"Alvin risked his life to save my sister and me from the troll's butcher knife. My father gave Alvin this weapon that my mother once used to repay him. Do you think he would exchange this staff for your tattered knife handle?"

It turned out to be her mother's relic!

Alvin was shocked. No wonder the Archmage Romanth had such a subtle expression on his face at that time!

Calpurnia, this girl gave me all her mother's belongings?!

Alvin stroked the staff in his hand, as if he saw the elf with a sweet smile and no knowledge of the world.

She must be in Silvermoon City now, eagerly waiting for me to return?

But, I am a human being after all. Am I really worthy of her?

"Ha ha,"

Depp's strange laugh interrupted Alvin's thoughts.

"You ignorant people, my teacher Fao said it himself, this thing contains enormous energy, we just don't know how to activate it."

"Alvin Priest, I think you are just a swindler! I wonder how sad the stupid elves you fooled must be! Anyone who can be fooled by a liar like you must be an idiot!"

"Asshole stuff."

Alvin cursed. It would have been fine if this bastard only cursed him, but he actually cursed Calpurnia and Solanlian as well.

My head got hot and I felt the heat rising.

"I won't argue with you, but you're still getting excited. Do you think you're pretty strong?"

"Come on, come on, I'm going to give you a knife on the butt to open your eyes!"

Haha, you’ve taken the bait!

Depp's face showed a smug smile of success.

"How about this, we're priests, so let's compete in three rounds: healing teammates, damaging enemies, and triggering miracles!"

Depp said with a sly grin.

Of course, Alvin knew what he was thinking, but he possessed all the priest skills, so how could he be afraid of a level 60 priest?

This idiot must be severely punished today!

The crowd in the hall quickly dispersed, leaving enough space for the two to compete.

The atmosphere became tense, and everyone's eyes were focused on these two people.

One is a student of the world-famous Archbishop Faol, and the other is a rising star in the Elf Empire. Their competition is sure to be exciting!

The nobles were so eager to watch the fun that some even opened a betting platform to place bets on who would win or lose!

At the moment, it seems that the probability of everyone betting on Depp to win is greater.

Depp had a sly smile on his face the whole time and he was obviously confident of his victory.

"Mr. Priest,"

Depp spoke, his tone quite provocative.

"Let's have a competition to see whose priest is more powerful. In the first round, we'll compete in healing teammates."

"Clap!"

Depp clapped his hands, and soon a group of servants brought out a wounded man on a stretcher.

The man was pale and wailing continuously. His legs and arms were wrapped in bandages and he was obviously seriously injured.

Good boy! Even the wounded are prepared! It seems they came prepared and have been planning this for a long time!

Which of the nobles in the banquet hall was not a shrewd person? Everyone knew what was going on in their hearts, and they despised Depp a thousand times in their hearts.

But Depp didn't care. He walked forward confidently and started chanting the spell without saying much.

Soon, his palm emitted a soft golden light, which covered the wounded man's body. The man's complexion was obviously getting better, he stopped groaning, and looked very comfortable.

"see it?"

Depp said proudly,

"This is my healing technique. Now it's your turn, dear Mr. Priest."

Alvin found Depp's confident look ridiculous.

Solanlian leaned over to Alvin's ear and whispered in a low voice that only Alvin could hear, "If you lose my mother's staff, I will kill you!"

Solanlian's long green hair fell from her ears, and some of it fell on Alvin's neck. Alvin only felt a burst of fragrance.

To outsiders, it seemed like an intimate exhortation between lovers.

But only Alvin knew that if he lost, this female Tyrannosaurus would definitely do what she said and make him pay.

"Don't worry, you haven't seen my magic before, so this time, just watch me!"

Alvin smiled slightly and walked forward.

He raised his hands slightly and began to chant the spell.

A golden light burst out from his hands, brighter than Depp's.

The people around him murmured "Wow".

But this is not the end. The light emitted from the edge of Irvin's palm continued to cover the wounded man, lasting three times as long as Depp!

The wounded man opened his eyes in confusion.

Amidst the surprised gazes around him, he stood up from the stretcher, moved his arms, kicked his legs, and his face immediately regained its rosy complexion.

"My injury has healed..."

The wounded man scratched his head, his face full of confusion.

"I remember being hit by a carriage and breaking my arms and legs. Is this a miracle?"

There was a cry of exclamation in the hall.

"It's a miracle!"

"Great! Is this the power of Holy Light?"

There was a burst of warm applause and praise for Alvin all around.

Only Johnny Depp opened his eyes wide and looked at Alvin as if he was a monster.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
