Chapter 59 This guy is a monster
Chapter 59 This guy is a monster
Qinghui Square was deathly silent.
The moonlight poured down, making the pools of blood and mangled limbs on the ground appear even more gruesome.
Lin Ze held his sword and pointed it diagonally at the ground, the blood dripping from the blade creating tiny ripples on the stone slab.
His face remained calm and expressionless as his gaze slowly swept over Lei Yao and Mu Yuan.
The fight just now was merely a warm-up.
The opponent was too weak to test the true power of the Extreme Slaughter Sword.
Only when two experienced Level 5 professionals work together can they be considered qualified test subjects.
As Lin Ze's gaze swept over them, Lei Yao and Mu Yuan frowned in unison.
Even though they were the ones with the advantage, the other party's gaze gave them the illusion that they were the prey.
The two exchanged a glance, instantly reaching a tacit understanding, and then suddenly sprang into action.
boom!
The ground beneath Lei Yao's feet suddenly exploded, sending debris flying everywhere. He was launched away as if by an invisible force, leaving only a cracked crater in his place.
The burly figure left a blurry afterimage in the moonlight, instantly covering a distance of more than twenty meters. His right fist, wrapped in a fierce whistling wind, smashed straight at Lin Ze's face!
Shattered bones!
This punch was so fast that it was almost beyond the limits of what the naked eye could perceive. Before the wind from the punch even arrived, the suppressed force had already blown the stray hairs on Lin Ze's forehead back.
At the same time, Mu Yuan silently took half a step back. The shadow beneath his feet writhed like water, and two giant black pythons raised their heads from the darkness, their tongues hissing softly in the air.
They shot out from the left and right, their mouths wide open, a foul stench filling the air, sealing off Lin Ze's space to dodge.
The two battle-hardened experts struck with a deadly move from the very first move!
An ordinary level 5 professional would either be killed or seriously injured in this encounter!
However, when faced with the two men attacking him, Lin Ze simply turned slightly to the right.
The movement was so small as to be almost negligible, yet it was just the right moment for Lei Yao's punch, powerful enough to shatter stone, to graz past his ear.
The force of the punch stung his cheek, but his gaze remained unchanged, and his left hand had somehow found its way to the hilt of his sword.
Draw your sword.
The silent, silvery light reappeared, slashing upwards with precision, striking the open snout of the giant python on the left.
There was no loud clang of metal clashing, only a faint hissing sound like tearing silk.
The ferocious snake head, powerful enough to bite through steel plates, along with the latter half of its body, was cleaved in two by the sword light, spilling out foul-smelling snake blood and entrails.
Before the sword strike was finished, it drew an arc and cut another giant python that was pouncing from the right in half!
The two snake sections crashed to the ground, twitching and writhing as if electrocuted.
Mu Yuan's expression changed. This was the strongest offspring of his natal beast, whose scales were as hard as high-strength alloys, yet it couldn't even withstand a single sword strike?!
At that moment, Lei Yao had just withdrawn his fist.
In the next instant, his fighting instincts made the hairs on his body stand on end.
He roared and held back, the beast bone necklace around his neck suddenly bursting with an earthy yellow light, and a layer of fine, lizard-scale-like phantoms quickly covered his entire body.
The next instant, a silvery sword light struck him like lightning.
scoff!
The illusory, yellowish-brown scales flickered violently, emitting a series of teeth-grinding friction sounds.
Lei Yao groaned, a burning pain shooting through his side.
He glanced out of the corner of his eye and noticed a gash more than ten centimeters long on his side, from which blood was gushing out.
"How is this possible?!" Lei Yao was shocked and horrified.
He knows his own defenses best.
Even a superior-grade weapon would need to strike several times with full force to break through the giant lizard's skin and steel-like bones.
But the opponent simply flicked his sword...
Mu Yuan and Tang Wangyan were both stunned and widened their eyes upon seeing this scene.
They could also break through Lei Yao's defenses.
But at the very least, you need to use skills and a high-quality weapon.
They could see very clearly that Jingzhe's attack just now showed no signs of using any skill; it was most likely just an ordinary slash.
Even their weapons were just common frost-patterned swords, not even meeting the minimum requirements for ordinary-grade weapons.
How could Lei Yao, who had activated the giant lizard skin, be injured like this?
Ignoring the reactions of those around him, Lin Ze continued his attack with his sword.
The more than twenty professionals he had killed previously contributed more than twenty layers of Extreme Slaughter Heart to him. With the added blessing of the Sword Master's talent, his attack power and attack speed had reached an astonishing level.
Even a seasoned level 5 sword master is far inferior to him.
More importantly, it's the Blade of Limit Break.
This exceptional talent is the core of the Extreme Slaughter Sword.
With near-conceptual true damage, coupled with astonishing attack power and attack speed, it is unstoppable.
Even the best equipment is no match for him.
With a successful strike, Lin Ze flipped his wrist, the tip of his sword trembled slightly, and instantly unleashed seven cold stars, which pierced Lei Yao's throat, heart, shoulders, and knees respectively.
Each sword strike was as fast as lightning, ruthless and cunning.
Lei Yao was filled with shock and rage. He roared and swung his fists repeatedly, creating a powerful wind as he tried to block. However, the sword light seemed to have a life of its own, always managing to slip through the gaps in his fists and inflict wounds of varying depths on his body.
In just two or three breaths, Lei Yao was covered in blood.
Although they were all superficial injuries, the suppressed frustration and anger made his chest feel like it was about to explode.
"Mu Yuan!" he roared hoarsely.
Without him having to shout, Mu Yuan had already made his move.
With the two giant pythons severed, he ceased summoning his offspring. The shadow beneath his feet suddenly surged and expanded, as if connecting to some dark abyss.
Accompanied by a chilling hissing sound, a colossal creature slowly rose from the shadows.
That was a two-headed giant snake!
The snake's body was as thick as a water vat, covered with jet-black iron-like scales. Its two ferocious snake heads were raised to the left and right, and its four vertical pupils were as red as blood, locking onto Lin Ze.
A foul stench swept over us, filling the air with a heavy, pungent mixture of sulfur and blood.
It was the Twin-Headed Hydralisk, Mu Yuan's natal beast!
"Finally, I've let it out."
Lin Ze glanced at the terrifying monster, his tone remaining calm.
Mu Yuan's face was so gloomy it could drip water. He bit his tongue, spitting out a mouthful of blood mist that formed a strange mark in mid-air. After a slight pause, it disappeared into the body of the double-headed serpent with a whoosh.
The giant snake's body trembled, and a dark red light seeped from the gaps in its scales, its aura suddenly surging.
The mark of the wild!
"Kill him!" Mu Yuan shouted.
The two heads of the Hydralisk opened their massive jaws simultaneously, viciously lunging at Lin Ze.
Lei Yao seized the opportunity to unleash his power, a hazy dragon and tiger phantom rising from his body, his aura instantly soaring. He threw a punch, the fist wind condensing into a tangible tiger shape, roaring as it pounced towards Jingzhe!
Dragons and tigers dance wildly!
Two deadly moves, attacking from both sides!
"Lei Yao and Mu Yuan are going to fight to the death."
In front of the light screen, Pan De appeared beside Tang Wangyan at some point, muttering to himself with a solemn expression.
Tang Wangyan naturally understood what he meant.
The Wild Mark can be considered a tamer's trump card, which can temporarily and greatly enhance the combat power of their natal beast. The side effect is that the tamer will be in a weakened state afterward.
The Dragon and Tiger Dance is similar, except that the target of the dance is the caster himself.
These are all desperate measures that are only used in life-or-death situations.
Lei Yao and Mu Yuan were clearly forced into a corner.
Neither Tang Wangyan nor Pan De expected that, facing the combined attack of two powerful figures, Lin Ze not only gained the upper hand but also forced them into a life-or-death situation.
The two were shocked, but their eyes remained fixed on the light screen, not daring to look away for even a moment.
Everyone knew that the battle had entered its most critical moment.
Under the moonlight, Lin Ze took a deep breath, and the air around him seemed to freeze for a moment.
The next moment, he became a blur, charging straight forward into the wind of the fist and the snake's mouth!
It moved so fast that it left a clear, slowly fading afterimage in the same spot.
Shadow Slayer!
Just as he was about to collide with the force of the punch, he suddenly shifted to the side, narrowly avoiding the incoming force, and then rushed forward at lightning speed in the next instant.
This continuous switching from extreme motion to extreme stillness and then from extreme stillness to extreme motion, completely ignoring physical inertia, gave everyone present a suffocating and distorted feeling.
But they paid no attention to any of that, their eyes fixed intently on the figure.
In the blink of an eye, Lin Ze appeared below the left head of the double-headed serpent, his longsword silently thrusting out, its tip trembling slightly, and a silver light, condensed to its extreme, instantly appeared.
Not one, but nine!
Nine sword lights seemed to come from nine different directions at the same time, blocking all the space for dodging. Each sword light was as solid as a substance, carrying a chilling killing intent and sharpness, and slashed at the right head of the double-headed serpent.
Nine Shadow Flashes!
Chi Chi Chi!
The Twin-Headed Hydra's scales, which were as hard as ordinary-grade extraordinary equipment, were as fragile as paper under the sword light, quickly cracking and shattering.
With a painful hiss, a huge snake head flew high into the air and fell seven or eight meters away.
Lin Ze continued his actions, unleashing another Shadow Strike Nine Flashes, severing the remaining head of the Twin-Headed Serpent to the ground.
boom!
The enormous snake's body fell to the ground, stirring up clouds of dust.
This ferocious beast, capable of rivaling a level 5 professional, was reduced to a corpse in a single encounter with Lin Ze.
Mu Yuan was struck dumb, his face turned ashen, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
When his natal beast died, he was instantly struck by a backlash.
But he couldn't care less about that now; he was filled with horror and looked at Lin Ze as if he were some kind of monster.
"Die!"
Taking advantage of the moment when Lin Ze killed the two-headed hydra, Lei Yao had already approached him. The phantom images of dragons and tigers wrapped around his arms, and his fists turned into a storm of fist shadows, raining down on him like a tempest.
Lin Ze's expression remained unchanged, his figure flashing like a ghost, as if he had transformed into a shadow in the night, flashing past the gaps between the fist shadows.
His agility attribute already exceeded 20 points, and now, with the blessing of Shadow Slayer, his movement speed far exceeds level 5.
No matter how much Lei Yao roared and swung his fists, he couldn't even touch the hem of his clothes.
In contrast, Lin Ze simply swung his sword casually, and the sword light pierced through the gauntlets and the giant lizard's skin, cutting deep, bone-revealing wounds on Lei Yao's arms, chest, and thighs!
Lei Yao's proud defense was as fragile as paper in front of that seemingly ordinary longsword.
At that moment, the area around the square was deathly silent.
Whether they were members of Gangquan or Bloodhawk's henchmen, they were all stunned, their faces filled with shock and bewilderment.
The two vice presidents joined forces and were completely suppressed in just two minutes!
Anyone who isn't blind can see that the outcome of this match is already a foregone conclusion.
Outside the cordon, Zhuang Yi and the others were equally dumbfounded, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.
No one expected the battle to develop this way.
In the center of the square, Lei Yao was breathing heavily. The arrogance and killing intent he had shown earlier were gone from his eyes, replaced by an overwhelming fear.
We can't beat them.
We can't beat them at all!
This guy is a monster!
"Everyone, attack together! Kill him!"
Lei Yao suddenly pulled back and shouted loudly at the same time.
At the same time, Mu Yuan roared, "All of you, attack!"
At this point, the two no longer cared about saving face or maintaining their dignity as the strong; survival was their only concern.
The surrounding guild members seemed to wake from a dream. Despite their fear, they were intimidated by the authority of the two vice guild leaders and braced themselves, letting out deafening battle cries as they surged from all directions toward the lone figure in the center of the square like a tidal wave.
Seeing this, Tang Wangshu and Zhuang Yi's expressions changed, and they subconsciously gripped their weapons, looking at Pan De and Tang Wangyan.
"Captain Pan, Captain Tang, should we...?"
Pan De and Tang Wangyan exchanged a glance, both looking hesitant.
But soon, Pande shook his head and said in a deep voice, "We don't need to interfere. If Jingzhe wants to leave, no one can stop him."
With Lei Yao and Mu Yuan seriously injured, the remaining ordinary guild members were no match for Jingzhe.
"...He doesn't seem to be planning to leave," Zhuang Yi suddenly said.
When everyone looked up, they were astonished to find that Jingzhe was advancing instead of retreating, charging towards the crowd.
"That madman!"
Mu Yuan also noticed Jingzhe's actions and couldn't help but curse under his breath, but he also breathed a slight sigh of relief.
If Jingzhe were determined to escape, the guild members present really wouldn't be able to stop him.
In that case, tonight's operation would be a complete failure.
This will inevitably deal a severe blow to Blood Eagle's reputation, and who knows how the guild leader will punish them when they return.
Fortunately, Jingzhe was too arrogant and actually planned to take on all of them by himself!
This is undoubtedly a great opportunity to take him down!
Mu Yuan looked at Lei Yao and met his gaze.
In the exchange of glances, the two immediately understood each other's thoughts.
As long as Lin Ze is eliminated, tonight's operation will not be a failure!
"superior!"
"Kill him!"
The two even abandoned the outer defenses and no longer cared about the legion, instead mobilizing all their manpower to besiege and kill Jingzhe.
From above, the vast plaza was already filled with a dense mass of guild members.
At the very center, a swirling, silvery sword light, like a reef, blocked the crowds surging in from all directions.
As the sword flashed, people fell one after another.
Within a minute or two, the ground around Lin Ze was covered with a layer of corpses.
However, the crowd around them did not decrease. The members of the two major guilds were all bloodthirsty and had completely unleashed their ferocity, rushing towards Lin Ze without regard for anything else.
Even Tang Wangshu and Zhuang Yi, who were watching from the sidelines, felt a sense of dread as they witnessed this scene.
But Lin Ze's face remained indifferent throughout.
Under the moonlight, the calmness in his eyes abruptly vanished, replaced by a pure, chilling killing intent.
A violent and intense aura suddenly erupted from him!
The air hummed under the strain, and the fine stone chips on the ground were levitated by the invisible force field.
Ultimate liberation!
