Chapter 286: Chapter 278: No Fool Ever Reaches Level 60

Rubble was flung, breaking the sound barrier, shooting like bullets, and the verbal Puki, already like a piece of rag, was truly smashed into rags.

However——

“Your struggle is futile. Death to me is but a blink of an eye, a reset. And your end was sealed the moment you stepped onto this icy field with malice!”

This verbal Puki, without any loaded skills and zero combat ability, could easily be remade by Lin Jun with mycelium in seconds, completely unkillable.

From a distance, the magic cannon attacked again, this time with a slightly longer interval.

Gallon dodged once more.

“What death, just some puppet tricks, pretending to be gods and ghosts!”

After a brief moment of surprise and doubt, Gallon quickly regained his composure as a strongman.

Unlike some vampires who seem high-level but just endure the test of time, he truly rose from battle after battle!

Being betrayed and falling into a trap were mere setbacks; using puppets to make noise and disturb his mindset was a pathetic attempt!

For now, the situation seemed manageable, as for some reason, the other side didn’t seem ready to lock him down completely with enough combat power.

Those invisible mushrooms were indeed troublesome, constantly appearing at his feet and self-destructing.

But facing someone like him with strong defense, they couldn’t inflict real damage in the end.

Judging by the scene, he might even be able to rush over, destroy that device firing magic cannons, and then counter-kill the remaining people present.

Gallon did a backflip, soared high, dodged another magic cannon with an even longer interval, and upon landing, turned and ran—he was retreating!

Though hot-tempered, he wasn’t stupid; a fool couldn’t survive and fight up to level 60!

Since this was Gray’s work, there were probably some follow-up moves, waiting for him to charge right into a trap.

He wasn’t going to take that risk!

He just needed to go back and expose Gray, that petty villain’s, insidious plan to the chieftain!

“Where are you going? Built like a bear, but only know how to run when facing opponents?!”

That disgusting voice appeared again, but Gallon only smirked.

Seeing him retreating, the other side was anxious!

The more they tried desperately to provoke him verbally, the more it proved that his decision to retreat was the right one!

An icy blue magic glow flashed as Xing Huo raised his magic staff, erecting an ice wall in Gallon’s path.

Gallon didn’t slow down at all and charged straight into it.

The ice wall shattered as if hit by a boulder!

As his foot landed on the cracked ice, a sharp rushing sound came from the side—it was a spear thrown with all its might by Shou!

A dull thud echoed as the spear struck Gallon’s temple, causing him to stagger, and blood instantly covered half his face.

But he only shook his head and charged forward again, barely slowing!

Shou and Xing Huo were in awe, amazed at Gallon’s terrifying strength, while an injured Gallon was now filled with furious rage!

“You two trash! Just you wait! I’ll deal with Gray, that traitor, and then return to grind your whole tribe to dust! Run north if you dare! No matter where you go, I’ll hunt you down and tear you to shreds!” Gallon’s roar echoed in the cold wind, his figure rapidly shrinking, disappearing at the snowfield’s edge.

Shou looked in Gallon’s disappearing direction, glanced at the worried Xing Huo, and couldn’t help but ask in the Fungal Network: “Boss, why use the cup signal? Why not command directly in the Fungal Network? Maybe if the first blast hit him unprepared…”

“Foolish! What do you know, you bumpkin!”

“Hey…” Shou didn’t mean to question the boss but letting this Empire Envoy escape was a future threat.

However, Lin Jun wasn’t finished: “Besides…who said we couldn’t keep him?”

“Huh?”

Before the words were fully spoken, a fast, ghostly black silhouette swept across low in the sky!

The furious wind pressure swept past, even toppling several Jida carrying the resonance cannon in the distance!

The fastest legend of the Mushroom Garden — Xiao Hai, launched!

Xiao Hai had been chasing for a while when Louisa, transformed into a bat, slowly came.

Setting out at the same time, she truly couldn’t outfly Xiao Hai, and Norris and the Puki army were further behind!

Though Lin Jun had discovered Gallon’s movements through the fungal mat in advance, it was only by a bit more than an hour.

The Demon Tribe typically didn’t allocate significant combat power here, and they had to temporarily mobilize from Mushroom Garden No. 3, barely managing to create a resonance cannon for use.

If Gallon had gone berserk and stayed for a bloody fight to the end, the Demon Tribe might have suffered some casualties too.

As for escaping, no matter how you run, you can’t get out of the Fungal Mat’s reach in such a short time!

All I can say is, just like Lin Jun said, the ending was already destined when he stepped onto this icy plain with malice!

…

On the icy plain, Gallon kept sprinting without stopping.

No trace of pursuers behind, and the path ahead was clear, seemingly he managed to escape just like that.

Much simpler than expected, what on earth was Gray thinking?

In any case, once he returns, Gray is doomed!

“You didn’t think you’ve really escaped, did you?”

It’s that voice again!

Why? How could there be someone here?!

The sudden mushroom sound instinctively made Gallon look at the Puki from where the voice came.

In this critical moment of distraction and shifting view!

A dark shadow, like black lightning tearing the sky, descended from high above with murderous intent and a sonic boom!

“What?!”

Realizing he was caught in a trap, Gallon tried to retaliate, but two Dragon Claws covered in black scales, powerful enough to tear steel, instantly clasped his arms!

The terrifying high-speed impact slammed Gallon into the frozen earth, carving a more than ten-meter-long trench, ice and debris scattering everywhere!

Golden vertical pupils flickered with cold ferocity amidst the flying snow mist!

“A killing move… it’s a Dragon Man!!”

He endured the intense pain, suddenly spitting a mouthful of blood at Xiao Hai’s face!

Xiao Hai instinctively turned his head to evade, and in that instant, Gallon mustered all his strength to kick Xiao Hai fiercely in the abdomen, forcing him to be sent flying!

Gallon struggled to stand, the places where his arms were grabbed were torn open, bleeding profusely, he could even feel the faint pain of bone cracking!

Coupled with the shock to his internal organs from being slammed into the ground earlier, just this one encounter, the injuries he suffered far exceeded the total of all previous attacks!

The kicked-away Xiao Hai agilely rotated his body in mid-air, his broad dragon wings suddenly flapped, and he relentlessly dove again!

Gallon roared angrily, the dark Demon Pattern on his body flaring to the extreme, pushing his defense to the peak, swinging a fist to strike back!

Alas, even if their levels were similar, in the realm of absolute speed, he couldn’t even qualify to carry Xiao Hai’s shoes!

His swung heavy punch exposed his own flaws, and didn’t even touch Xiao Hai’s scales. After a few futile attempts, Gallon was forced to adopt a completely defensive stance.

But merely defending can never win a battle!

Another Dragon Claw tearing through the air came at him! A trace of ruthless determination flashed in Gallon’s eyes, he neither dodged nor evaded!

Schiirr—!

The dark Dragon Claw pierced through his right chest without any obstruction!

The excruciating pain darkened Gallon’s vision, blood gushing wildly from his mouth!

But he seized this life-risking moment to grab onto Xiao Hai’s claw.

Simultaneously, his left hand, ready to go, gathered the remaining strength and all explosive skills, smashing fiercely at Xiao Hai’s head!

Bang—!!!

A dull sound echoed, Xiao Hai was sent flying by Gallon’s desperate strike, crashing into a distant, ice-covered stone slope, rubble and ice shards crumbling down!

The quickly withdrawn Dragon Claw caused Gallon secondary damage.

Gallon endured the intense pain, trembling, with his still-movable left hand, struggled to take out a not completely ruined small metal box from his chest, then pulled out a bottle of high-quality Healing Potion.

With his injuries, if he didn’t treat them, he would bleed to death in no time.

Four shadows of Puki appeared simultaneously around him in four directions, the invisible sonic resonance instantly enveloped that fragile glass bottle!

Buzz—

Crack—

The clear shattering sound was exceptionally ear-piercing on the deathly still icy plain.

Staring at the ground, where the healing potion mixed with glass shards spilled out, Gallon was stunned for a full two seconds.

Another voice from a Puki appeared at his feet: “Well… maybe licking it now isn’t too late.”
