Chapter 193: Hopeless Situation? Being-Towards-Death!

Link’s brows were knitted tightly, and his headache became even more intense. He urgently needed the strength to change the current situation.

The gaze of Aisha—who was beside him—changed. Gritting her teeth, she suddenly pushed Link away.

A voice sounded in Link’s heart through the psychological connection. “Run quickly; there should be city guards coming over very soon. Run towards the square; go to where there are many clansmen!”

Link watched as the girl before him curled up the corner of her lips at him and revealed a poignant smile, looking just like a beautiful flower that was about to wilt.

Aisha stared deeply at Link as if she wanted to imprint his appearance in her mind.

In the next instant, she abruptly dashed toward those hideous and evil monsters. She actually wanted to use her life to buy time for Link!

The monsters—whose forms were a combination of frogmen and fishmen—came closer and closer. Foul wind hit their faces as sinister snarls filled the streets.

Under such a savage background, Aisha’s slender figure appeared to be exceedingly delicate like a moth flying into a fire—it would be instantly devoured by the flames!

Plap!

At this moment, Link seemed to hear a soft crack coming from within his body! It was as though some kind of shackle was broken, and a small gap had emerged.

A warm current flowed through his whole body, bringing an abundant sense of strength.

The grim situation gave no space for thought. Link tugged off the package on his bag; in it was a blade with purple crystals mounted.

This blade was something that Link had prepared in order to respond to a crisis at any moment after he had regained consciousness yesterday. Now, it happened to come in handy.

Magic flowed out and poured into the blade. The purple crystals on the blade instantly bloomed with a brilliant purple radiance!

Using the purple crystals to amplify magic, buff weapons, or release spells—this was the mainstream style of combat in the clan.

Link’s figure leaped out like a sharp arrow that left the bow; he was multiple steps ahead of Aisha and met with an evil being that had come pouncing first.

This evil being opened its mouth. Sharp fangs tore out of the mouth cavity, and sticky, foul saliva dripped continuously.

Those turbid frog eyes were filled with madness and despise. Strange snarls came from its mouth, delivering its desperate desire to feed.

“Food! Kill!” A long spear made of unknown material, radiating an aura that disgusted one, came thrusting toward Link ruthlessly!

Aisha watched the scene before her eyes; there was no longer any color in her small face.

“No!” She shouted in panic; the heart in her chest contracted violently as if it were missing a piece. It was a suffocating pain!

To her, these evil beings were enough to rival the race’s Stage Three Warriors. How could Ling be their match?

Aisha didn’t want to see the upcoming bleak scene!

But Link’s expression was indifferent. He was deep in a hopeless situation; he had no experience of fighting in his memory at all.

But at this moment, there wasn’t the slightest nervousness and fear in his heart; there was only surging killing intent in his chest. It was as if he was instinctively used to and adapted to combat!

Piak!

At the instant the long spear came close, Link planted his foot hard, and his figure took off like a wild goose.

Amidst the sound of wind breaking, the blade in Link’s hand drew a purple arc!

Crack!

Stale blood spurted!

This evil being’s head was directly slashed off by Link and rolled on the ground!

An evil being died instantly, and Link had only struck once!

Aisha—who was behind Link—was stunned at once. The sight before her eyes had put her in disbelief; she was even shocked by it! Ling actually killed an evil being! How could this be? Has Ling’s magic attainments broken through Stage Three to reach the standard of a clan warrior? But even a clan warrior wouldn’t be able to cut off an evil being’s head so easily, right?

Aisha was extremely surprised, but the crisis hadn’t been averted.

The evil beings behind followed. Other than a few evil beings that were attracted by the corpse of their kind and stopped to gnaw on the corpse, the remaining three evil beings all came pouncing toward Link.

Two harpoons carrying a strong fishy scent tore through the air and came piercing at Link’s head!

The arm of the remaining evil being turned into a long cirrus. Like a steel whip, it broke the air and came sweeping!

Set off by the three evil beings, Link appeared to be extremely thin and weak, even a little tragic. He seemed like a tiny boat inside a storm—it would be smashed to pieces by the huge and violent waves in an instant!

Aisha’s delicate body shook, and the rim of her eyes was red. However, the subsequent scene exceeded her expectations; it even made Aisha’s eyes widen abruptly.

Under the joint attack, she saw Link’s figure swiftly moving like a phantom. The blade in his hands even had a brilliant purple glow; it was like a passing beauty that constantly changed.

Link easily dodged the two harpoons that came thrusting. With a purple radiance, his blade harshly chopped down on the cirrus that came striking!

Boom!

With an explosion, a section of the hideous cirrus that was full of suckers was directly ripped off. The evil being let out a piteous shriek and quickly retracted the cirrus.

Link turned and swung out a strike. It collided with a harpoon, releasing a loud ring!

This evil being’s weapon directly shook and was sent flying out of its grip by Link. Its tall body also retreated continuously, the turbid frog eyes filled with surprise.

Link seized the chance to switch his attack target to another monster holding a harpoon. His offensive was swift and violent like thunder.

Crack!

A sound—which resembled ripping—reverberated. The fish scales on this monster crumbled, and half of its body was slashed off. Foul blood splashed all over the ground!

With one meritorious strike, Link did a long-range raid with the blade behind him, and another strike landed!

In the purple glow’s trail, another monster’s corpse fell to the ground heavily!

Evident fear flashed across the eyes of the remaining fishman monster, which had a mutated arm. Its body actually moved backward!

Aisha’s small mouth was slightly agape, surprise written all over her face. She had never heard about these insane, brutal monsters knowing fear.

Link had no intentions of letting that fishman off. His body leaped forward, and a purple radiance constantly magnified in the monster’s eyes!

Filthy blood splattered, and the three monsters’ corpses laid in disarray!

Link stood proudly with his blade; his body was upright like a spear as he coldly faced the 100-odd monsters behind him. He was like a true demon lord!

At this moment, footsteps sounded—the city guards had arrived.

The Holy City’s defense line was breached, and a large number of monsters swarmed in. These warriors were constantly salvaging situations in various areas of the city.

When these warriors saw the scene before them, they couldn’t help the change in expression.

Foul fresh blood was everywhere. With four monster bodies laying around as he faced close to 100 monsters, this demon lord-like youth shocked their souls.

“You have done well. Good job, hand it to us from here.” After faltering slightly, the leader of the city guards praised Link and waved his hands, signaling for his companions behind him to fight alongside him.

The addition of about 100 city guards brought an instant change to the situation.

Link didn’t stop either; he charged toward that group of monsters with these warriors.

Fighting screams immediately exploded on the streets!

After a fight, there were now about ten of the hundred-odd monsters left. But right then, a snarl clearly entered everyone’s ears.

The warriors lifted their heads at the sound and saw a dense crowd of monsters swarming in their direction—it was a stretch of black!

The city guard leader’s countenance changed. He quickly commanded, “Retreat! Retreat! There are too many evil beings; get the high priest to activate the array formation in the Enlightenment Temple and stop this group of evil beings!”
