79 The Monster King
“Boom boom boom!”
On the main peak.
That supreme existence flapped its wings, exuding both terror and might as it looked down on the world. The Monster King glanced at them indifferently.
Everyone’s eyes were wide open as they gasped for breath, their bodies shaking.
“It’s over, it’s over.”
Some of them knelt as if their legs were filled with lead, their mouths filled with endless despair.
“What should we do?”
“We have to hold him back and wait for the experts to suppress him,” Hai Yue suddenly said in a deep voice from the crowd.
Everyone froze when they heard this.
“Stall him? Are you kidding me?”
“This Monster King just needs to move his fingers, and we’ll all die. Why should we use our heads to stall him?!”
“Then, should I just watch as it kills all the people in the surrounding cities?” Hai Yue asked coldly.
Seeing the hesitation on everyone’s faces, Hai Yue said, “We’re hunters, and our mission is to protect our compatriots from being attacked by monsters. I know that we’re about to face the threat of death,” Hai Yue said in a deep voice after a short pause, “But, we’re obliged to defend against the monsters!”
After saying that, Hai Yue put on her knight’s armor and rushed toward the Monster King.
In the crowd, someone gritted his teeth and said, “Running away doesn’t mean we can escape. It’s better to die with dignity!”
“Miss Hai Yue, I’ll join you!”
Some people were encouraged and rushed forward.
The Monster King sneered.
“Ant-like humans want to stop me?”
“Demonic Flame Fury!”
The Monster King waved his hand. A huge ball of black demonic flames shot toward the crowd.
The attack range was extremely large, and there was no way to avoid it! Everyone was shocked and hurriedly used their defensive skills!
The Monster King snorted coldly and said, “A mantis trying to stop a chariot.”
The giant hand clenched in the air! The black demonic flames exploded instantly, turning the ground into purgatory.
Nearly half of the people were affected, and their bodies turned into charcoal by the explosion. The difference in strength was so great that it made one flabbergasted.
Lu Benwei’s heart was bleeding as he watched this terrifying scene from the sky!
“I’m going to kill you!” Lu Benwei’s eyes were bloodshot and his fists were clenched, his nails deeply digging into his flesh.
Lu Benwei broke free from Chu Yan’s grip and turned to face the Monster King.
“Annoying fellow, don’t go!” Chu Yan grabbed Lu Benwei’s clothes tightly.
“That’s a high-level Monster King!”
Monster Kings were divided into lower Monster King, middle Monster King, and upper Monster King, which corresponded to human levels 60,70, and 80, respectively!
In other words, they were facing a rank-80 powerhouse! The gap between them could not be closed by relying on talent!
“This Mosnter King has specifically said that he wants to kill you,” Chu Yan said seriously.
“If you go against him, you’ll really die, and you’ll die an ugly death.” Chu Yan bared her fangs and brandished her claws as if she was threatening Lu Benwei.
Lu Benwei calmed down and said, “Chu Yan, you’re right. But I can’t just watch this Monster King slaughter our compatriots!”
After a pause, Lu Benwei said softly, “Chu Yan, this time you mustn’t follow me or you’ll lose your life!”
Then, Lu Benwei activated One-Click Speed Support and moved toward the Monster King.
“Annoying fellow!” Chu Yan exclaimed. Chu Yan changed her direction and wanted to catch up with Lu Benwei.
“Boom!”
Bolts of lightning fell from the sky with astonishing power.
Chu Yan stopped in a hurry, her beautiful eyes filled with shock!
The area around the main peak had already become a pool of lightning!
Countless thunderbolts fell, killing all living beings in the area.
What was even more shocking was this pool of lightning was actually Lu Benwei’s skill!
Myriad Thunder Skill!
One-Click Skill Support upgraded the proficiency of Myriad Thunder Skill to an A grade skill. Both the damage and the area of effect had increased!
To stop Chu Yan from following him and to lock the upper Monster King in this world, he created this lightning cage with his own power. At the same time, he had imprisoned himself.
Lu Benwei floated in front of the Monster King and stared at him coldly.
The thunderbolts struck the Monster King, tearing a small wound on its skin. However, the next second, the wounds on the Monster King’s body healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Lu Benwei activated the Eye of Insight and read the information about the Monster King.
[Flame monster ancient emperor.]
[Race: Balrog.]
[Level: Level 85 Monster King]
[Skills: Flame Monster Slash, Demonic Flame Fury, Inferno Strangle, Sky Burning Demonic Flame, Demonic Flame Breath, and Residual Flame Fury.]
[The ancient emperor of the 72 monster clans, the Balrog clan. He’s very powerful. Nine level-80 hunters fought against him for three days and three nights before he was sealed.]
Lu Benwei’s scalp went numb as he looked at the dense introduction. Nine level-80 hunters fought with it for three days and three nights before they managed to seal it! What kind of terrifying existence was this?!
“I was looking for you, but I didn’t expect you to deliver yourself to me!”
The Monster King’s cold voice sounded.
“Is this thunder skill yours?” he asked.
“Yes!” Lu Benwei coldly replied.
The Monster King suddenly burst out laughing. “Hahaha! I like such a grand ceremony to celebrate my new life!”
The thunderbolts had already turned this area into a sea of lightning. The sound was so loud that it sounded like ten thousand horses galloping above the clouds!
Lu Benwei smiled.
“Indeed, the ceremony of rebirth and the funeral are held on the same day. There’s only one such ceremony in the world.”
“A funeral? Why is that?” the Monster King asked.
Lu Benwei sneered. “Why? Today is your rebirth and also your funeral!”
The Monster King was furious! “You’re at death’s door and you’re still so stubborn!”
It opened its huge mouth and a ray of demonic light shot out.
Lu Benwei’s eyes were sharp and his hands were fast. Holy Light Shield and Heavenly Light Shield were released at the same time!
“Boom!”
The magic light pierced through the Holy Light Shield, and its speed increased! Lu Benwei was shocked. He released Lightning Speed and One-Click Speed Support to increase his speed by 10 times!
Just as he turned his body, The magic light pierced through Lu Benwei’s shoulder, but fortunately, it was fine.
“Chi!”
[Barbaric Bloodline activated!
Lu Benwei’s injuries instantly recovered and a layer of shield appeared on his body.
The Monster King’s expression froze. “I failed to kill you?”
Lu Benwei covered his shoulder and sneered, “I see.”
The moment the magic light hit him, Lu Benwei instantly realized that the Monster King’s strength had not reached its peak.
“Without the Magician Heart and the sacrifices of other creatures, you haven’t recovered your full strength! Otherwise, you can kill me in an instant!”
Lu Benwei sighed in relief. With this layer of protection, Lu Benwei could at least delay the Monster King for half an hour.
Calculating the time, the school and the hunter experts should have arrived by the time they found out about the incident in Northwind Mountain.
“Come on, let me send you on your way!” Lu Benwei roared!
