NOVEL NEXT Chapter 44
Chapter 44: Blood Fiend Arrives, Luo Xinghe Rises Up!
The large hospital was dead silent!
Alloy Team One was presently like a dumb shell; their overbearing manners had disappeared!
They did not expect a female—who appeared ordinary—would actually kill one of their team members with crushing momentum!
This was too frightening!
That team member was a Stage One, Level 9 expert wearing silver alloy armor! Was he that deplorable?
Although 002 had survived by a stroke of luck, his body trembled ceaselessly, and his gaze was an extremely terrified one. He witnessed his companion dying beside him. That berserk force was immense and unstoppable; it already made him feel death coming close!
Alloy Team One’s leader had a livid expression, and he felt utterly indignant. He did not expect that a moment of oversight would cost him a team member!
“Tsk tsk tsk, is this truly Alloy Team One, Black Dragon Gang’s so-called sharp tool of attack?”
“Couldn’t even deal with a weak female, how embarrassing!”
Just then, a jesting sneer sounded.
Everyone looked over and saw that a group of humans—dressed in blood-red robes and emitting bloodthirsty auras from head to toe—walked over from the other side of the street!
“Blood Fiend Gang’s mad dogs? What, do you people also want to interfere?” The alloy leader snorted coldly, his countenance growing increasingly grim as he watched the crowd of Blood Fiend Gang continuously come closer and closer. As Alloy Team One’s leader, he still had an extremely comprehensive grasp of information.
This Blood Fiend Gang was similarly a great influence that had sprung up in the period of Doomsday. They used awfully evil powers and brought disaster to Dragon City. Blood Fiend Gang used heretical means to absorb humans’ blood and essence to boost their abilities and grant them rapid leveling up speeds.
Although the alloy leader held contempt towards Blood Fiend Gang, they were a bunch of difficult people after all.
“Why not? The Black Dragon Gang can be here, so why can’t our Blood Fiend Gang come?” The person leading Blood Fiend Gang was that red-headed, ferocious-looking Blood Fiend.
Blood Fiend dragged along a broadsword, dripping with blood, with his hand. A savage yet bloodthirsty aura burst out all over him, which also completely displayed his level!
Stage Two, Level 8!
It had only been a brief three days since the apocalyptic world arrived, yet Blood Fiend had advanced to Stage Two, Level 8. This was enough proof of how terrifying this Blood Fiend Gang’s sorceries were!
Upon seeing Blood Fiend come forward, a hint of apprehension was revealed on the alloy leader’s face before he sneered icily and said, “Then let’s see who can laugh till the end!”
Though he was wary about the Blood Fiend Gang’s capabilities, he did not fear them. After all, Alloy Team One wasn’t a group to be trifled with as well!
“Why, disregarding us now?” shouted Luo Xinghe coldly. Are these people treating us as lambs waiting to be slaughtered?
“Yo, I was wondering who it was! It turns out it’s the Luo siblings!” After seeing Luo Xinghe come forward, a vicious glimmer glowed in Blood Fiend’s eyes, and he promptly wore a cold smile. “Given the abilities of you siblings, I’m afraid that both of you won’t be enough for me to kill!”
Blood Fiend taunted them. He had gotten a clear look at Luo Xinghe’s and Luo Xingyao’s capabilities. They were merely Stage One, Level 9 beings; they were absolutely no match for him.
Whiz!
Before Blood Fiend could speak again, a sharp gleam passed through horizontally!
Swoosh!
The arrow shot out swiftly, shrouded in a glow as it directly flew towards Blood Fiend.
Luo Xingyao had acted and fired the [Bow of Elf], her killing intent alarming.
“Hmph!” Blood Fiend snorted coldly. The vigor in his body burst out, and the blood-red broadsword swept across horizontally, directly chopping the arrow in two. “Your capabilities are too weak!”
Blood Fiend shook his head, and his head of bloody hair danced wildly. The brutality in his gaze also grew stronger and stronger! “Back when your Luo family went through a bloodbath, only you siblings escaped. Today, I am going to kill all of you remaining evils here!”
Blood Fiend grinned hideously. His heretical vigor was like a bone-eroding ferocious ghost that was about to devour the humans.
“Damn it! I must kill you today!” Luo Xinghe was enraged, and his body trembled. Lifting the mountain knife that was already slightly wrecked, Luo Xinghe swung it towards Blood Fiend.
Grudges had evidently long existed between the Luo siblings and this Blood Fiend!
Unfortunately, the gap between the two parties’ capabilities was too great. Luo Xinghe had only fought a few bouts before Blood Fiend managed to land a kick on his chest, sending him flying invertedly.
Pu chi!
Luo Xinghe was covered in blood, his body severely wounded!
“Too weak! If your Luo family members were to know that the seeds of hope they desperately fought to send out were this useless, they probably won’t be able to rest in peace!” snapped Blood Fiend harshly, icily staring at Luo Xinghe, who had fallen to the ground. His gaze was extremely disdainful!
“Xinghe, do not be flustered when you handle affairs. Even beating a dog requires the correct method!” Right then, Link’s voice sounded.
At the same time, a golden holy glow descended and enveloped Luo Xinghe, instantly healing his injuries!
“Lord!” Upon hearing Link’s words, Luo Xinghe bowed his head powerlessly. He clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles were white!
“Come, you definitely should use a dog-beating stick when beating a dog to make it totally unable to fight back!” Link stepped forward, took out a thick and heavy saber with a brilliant radiance, and put it in Luo Xinghe’s hands!
Luo Xinghe’s body shook as he held the saber in his hands.
[Meteor]
Grade: Diamond
Strength: 150
Intelligence: 100
Constitution: 120
Agility: 100
Additional skill 1: [Meteor] (Passive Skill): User’s Strength attribute increases by 100%. There is also a 20% chance of triggering a breaking effect—which can break the target’s equipment or weapons!
Additional skill 2: [Meteor Chop] (Active Skill): User activates [Meteor]’s might, releasing meteor sword energy, causing damage that is 200% of user’s Strength attribute!
It was actually a Diamond-grade saber, so how could Luo Xinghe not be agitated?
He was the [Silvermoon Sword Emperor] in the first place, solely loving swords for his entire lifetime. Swords were just like a life partner to him!
Upon touching [Meteor], Luo Xinghe sensed that even his soul had integrated with it. It was as if they had become connected partners! Luo Xinghe could even feel the dignified will to fight that [Meteor] brought to him, and he became determined to engage in a bloody battle to showcase its power!
While watching Luo Xinghe, whose aura was gradually strengthening, Link wore a faint smile.
This [Meteor] had been obtained by upgrading the recently acquired [Skeleton Battle Blade] using Supreme Blessing. However, this sword was not of much use to Link.
Link already had a magical weapon—[Red Sky]. It was even mightier than [Meteor]. Moreover, he did not like to use swords, so he had no use keeping it around. It just happened to be more suitable for Luo Xinghe.
In any case, Luo Xinghe had already submitted to his command. An improvement in Luo Xinghe’s capabilities was also beneficial to Link.
Link naturally wouldn’t be miserly to his own people.
“Go, don’t let a mad dog bark at our door!” Link spoke coolly, then returned to the recliner and started watching the show leisurely.
“Thank you, Lord! Xinghe certainly won’t disappoint you!” Luo Xinghe inhaled deeply and slowly stood up from the ground. [Meteor]—which he gripped tightly in his hand—also let out a vast power!
For a time, it was like Luo Xinghe’s entire aura had turned into an extremely sharp, crushingly heavy, and peerless divine sword that was about to slice open this entire universe!
