Chapter 225: Chapter 224 Killing and Robbing are Mutual Actions (Conclusion)
This is entirely incorrect.
Watching the Fire Mist Warrior being chased by the Prometheus Soldiers, Fang Zheng could only shrug his shoulders, speechless.
Nanoka’s power lies in “creating machinery,” but unfortunately, the biggest problem with her ability is that she must be certain and affirm the existence of whatever she intends to create. It isn’t as simple as a flight of imagination; Nanoka needs firm conviction that “this thing absolutely exists.”
Regrettably, the weapons and armor previously created by Nanoka either had the original power from reality, which was insufficient to contend with the Fire Mist Warrior, or they were completely fabricated with no substantial foundation to maintain them. That’s why Fang Zheng recommended her to play computer games—at least that way, she might grasp some concepts that are “assuredly existent yet certainly nonexistent in reality.”
Now, it seems that Nanoka has succeeded.
The only flaw is that everything she controls is built upon existing materials, and since Nanoka knows no spatial spells and can’t casually carry around hundreds of tons of steel… In fact, these Knights and Watchers she now creates are merely for show, albeit with the abilities and defenses Nanoka has seen in the games; but after all, they are just empty shells. If the opponent got serious and went for a head-on collision, destroying this shell would be no issue.
However, for now… at least she’s managed to make the enemy turn tail and run, which is progress nonetheless.
As for the other side, it should be about time to end.
“Roar—!!”
The draconic roar sounded once more.
When Fang Zheng turned to look, he saw that Sindagosa had suddenly flapped its wings, and in the next instant, as if at its center, the chilling winds seemed to form giant hands, firmly binding the four Fire Mist Warriors entangled with it, completely ignoring their will and dragging them towards the Skeleton Dragon.
Simultaneously, Sindagosa raised its head high and let out an angry roar. Then, one could see a faint white light appearing above one of the Fire Mist Warriors’ heads. And the next moment, suddenly, the cold wind burst forth, striking the Fire Mist Warrior like a tornado descending from the heavens.
“Bang!!”
The moment the white cold struck the Fire Mist Warrior, the overflowing mist instantly spread out in all directions — and the other three Fire Mist Warriors, unable to defend in time, were thus directly engulfed by the white fog.
When the mist cleared, the four Fire Mist Warriors were completely encased in blocks of ice.
Thinking they could take on a BOSS without even filling a 25-man roster, this is what they get.
Looking at the Fire Mist Warriors who were sealed within the ice, their faces filled with shock and terror, Fang Zheng couldn’t help but smile slightly. His Sealing is not merely “isolating a part of the world from causality,” he is reifying the information from the Soulstone with the Power of Existence after the isolation by Sealing.
That is to say, Fang Zheng’s Sealing not only “isolates the causality of this world” but also transforms it into the “causality of other worlds.”
This means that in this world, if the Fire Mist Warriors want to eliminate these enemies, they must abide by the rules of this world!
Just like the Tomb of Ice that now seals these few Fire Mist Warriors, they can only resort to a few specific methods to break it; otherwise, even if you could punch a hole through the entire Earth, you’d still need to obediently stay sealed inside, waiting for death!
And clearly, these few Fire Mist Warriors are lacking such methods.
“……!!!”
As time painfully ticked by, the expressions of the frozen Fire Mist Warriors grew more agonized. They endured not only the suffocation from the Tomb of Ice but also the damage from the frost aura. They could feel their strength ebbing away, bit by bit, and even their consciousness was starting to blur…
“No good!!”
Seeing this, the other two Fire Mist Warriors, who had narrowly escaped disaster, also yelled out, decisively breaking away from the entanglement with the Scourge Legion and turning to attempt to rescue their comrades.
And it was at that moment that Fang Zheng finally made his move.
He looked ahead and then took a step forward with his left foot — the next moment, his figure appeared in front of the two Fire Mist Warriors, and with a sweep of his right hand, the Vampire Greatsword emerged from the void, slashing towards the two with a ferocious momentum.
Facing the suddenly appearing Fang Zheng, the two Fire Mist Warriors were also shocked; then, the one holding the scimitar gritted his teeth and swung the blade in his hand to meet the attack while not forgetting to give orders to his comrade.
“I’ll hold him off, you go save… Ahhhhh!!”
Before he could finish his sentence, the scimitar wielded by the Fire Mist Warrior collided with Fang Zheng’s Vampire Greatsword. A bright red light emanated from the blade, and in the next moment, the Fire Mist Warrior, who had initially blocked Fang Zheng’s strike, burst open from head to toe, blood splashing everywhere. He couldn’t withstand the powerful blow and collapsed backward.
But before he could hit the ground, Fang Zheng swung forward, and with a flash of the sword light, the Fire Mist Warrior’s head was chopped off and sent flying into the air, then turned into white Flame of Existence and disappeared into the air, leaving no trace behind.
This sword is truly a Divine Artifact.
Watching this scene, Fang Zheng couldn’t help but feel impressed. The vampire’s trait was to inflict damage corresponding to the Power of Existence infused in it. Although these wounds were random and uncontrollable, for Fang Zheng, it was still quite powerful. Of course, if he could control where the Vampire Greatsword injured the enemy, that would be better, like suddenly feeling a chill at the throat, at the chest, below… Hmm… aren’t all these weak points?
With these unspoken thoughts spinning in his head, Fang Zheng didn’t stop moving. After slaying the Fire Mist Warrior with a single strike, he immediately turned and swung the Vampire Greatsword again, aiming for the guy dressed like a fringe rock singer and carrying a guitar!
Seeing his comrade so effortlessly slain, the other Fire Mist Warrior was shocked, but he was experienced. Seeing Fang Zheng attacking him again, his expression drastically changed. Then, he fiercely grabbed the guitar and fiercely strummed the strings.
“———!!”
As the sound of the music played, the greatsword in Fang Zheng’s hand seemed to hit an invisible gel and couldn’t advance any further. Seeing this, Fang Zheng frowned.
The Vampire Greatsword was indeed useful, but if the enemy figured out how it worked and wanted to block it, it wasn’t difficult—like this, preventing oneself from making contact with the enemy could nullify the Vampire’s effect.
However, Fang Zheng didn’t rely solely on swordsmanship to conquer the world.
His strike missing, Fang Zheng immediately withdrew his sword and retreated, while at the same time, the Fire Mist Warrior tried to flee. At this moment, he had given up on saving his comrade because this terrifying man’s strength was completely beyond his expectations!
I must leave here immediately!!
Having made his decision, the Fire Mist Warrior tried to escape the battlefield. But before he could turn around, he saw Fang Zheng raise his hand and point at him. Immediately, a nearly invisible light beam shot out from his fingertip and hit the Fire Mist Warrior.
What is that?
Before he could react, the next moment, the Fire Mist Warrior’s face drastically changed!
“You… I…!!”
He stood dumbfounded, even forgetting to run because, at that moment, he felt the connection with the Demon King of the Crimson Realm he had contracted with was completely severed! Losing the contract, the Demon King of the Crimson Realm began to leave this world and return to the Crimson Realm, and at the same time, the power within his body was rapidly vanishing!
The Fire Mist Warrior had dedicated everything when forming a contract with the Demon King of the Crimson Realm, which is why they received their power. This is also why the Followers of the Crimson Realm called the Fire Mist Warriors “tools,” as their bodies were “tools” used by the Demon King of the Crimson Realm to store power.
Therefore, the Fire Mist Warriors didn’t need to sleep or eat and had superhuman strength. Conversely, once the contract was broken and the Demon King of the Crimson Realm left, they would lose everything!
“I, you actually…”
“Shh!”
Fang Zheng had no interest in hearing more. He walked up and swung his sword, chopping off the Fire Mist Warrior’s head, and the warrior fell to the ground, then vanished into thin air, leaving no trace behind.
“Ding.”
With the Fire Mist Warrior’s disappearance, a bracelet fell to the ground and rolled a few times before lying still. Seeing the bracelet, Fang Zheng raised his hand, and soon, the bracelet flew up from the ground into his palm.
“Indeed a Noble Phantasm… Hm, this haul really isn’t bad at all.”
Looking at the bracelet in his hand, Fang Zheng nodded in satisfaction.
Indeed, the act of killing for loot brought an exceptionally gratifying sense of accomplishment.
