Chapter 409: Raging chop!

Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation

The two rested for approximately 2-3 minutes, before Sheyan discovered his health started declining for no reasons. Immediately, he knew Reef had been struck into near-death state, and ‘Life-link’ had been activated. They hurriedly rushed over, but on the contrary, Sheyan’s heart had calmed down.

In the prior battle with Zeiss.Carl, that brat had an immensely frightening damage output. Sheyan’s health had dropped to around 300 points; but after several minutes of regeneration, it once again swelled back to 500 points. Moreover, Sheyan hadn’t used the party skill ‘Gloryheal’. If need be, there was still an honorary medicine dosage. Before his health dropped to near-death state, the ‘Life-link’ wouldn’t be terminated. Hence without saying, enduring for 7-8 minutes wasn’t a problem.

The two hurried forward according to the location Reef had provided earlier. Very quickly, sounds of people conversing could be heard a few hundred metres away. Mogensha was a veteran at this, he immediately segregated from Sheyan to find a vantage point. Instead, Sheyan bluntly advanced forward, before the situation below unfolded before his eyes.

Reef was half-kneeling on the ground, while a silver radiating layer sheltered him. His face was beaming with anger. With his hand folded across the chest, Eros exposed a taunting cold sneer. Another contestant holding a silver longbow stood 3 metres away from Reef, repeatedly strumming his bowstring towards Reef. Although there wasn’t any arrow, one could see ripples undulating in the air; seemingly possessing adequate killing power.

“I’ve heard long ago about a party Sphere being utter garbage, but the MT Reef isn’t that bad. Still, isn’t he just like a dog kneeling before me?” Eros curled his lips in disdain.

Reef suddenly raised his head, his bloodshot eyes shooting forth unprecedented viciousness.

“You can insult me, but never dishonor my party Sphere!”

The contestant holding the longbow laughed loudly, suddenly gathering towards Reef’s face.

“A trash party, what’s so good about it? I just want to dishonor, so what? What can you do?”

After speaking, he spat a thick phlegm but was instantly deflected by the silver layer.

Mogensha spied in from afar; his gaze was flashing with ruthlessness, and his facial muscles throbbing violently. The AK rifle grip was drenched in sweat. Only after several deep breaths, did he calm himself down.

Eros had obviously relied on his mental powers to disrupt their party channel. Thus, Sheyan had already instructed him of the mobilizing signal. If not, Mogensha would’ve instantly acted already!

At this moment, the bowman continued taunting.

“You’ve been struggling in the realm for a long time already, to live till now truly isn’t easy. Furthermore, an MT is exceedingly rare. Thus, as long as you hand over 4 equipments on you, me and Eros can keep prince in the dark, and release you!”

“F**** you.” The usually polite Reef, only icily squeezed out an english curse from his teeth.

Eros and the bowman glanced at each other, before vilely continuing.

“Don’t think that just because you have that ridiculous protection around you, we are helpless against you. When that silver screen breaks, we make make you wish you could die!”

The two had already made an evil decision; naturally after extorting 4 pieces of equipment, they would still kill him for his key. With regards to contracts, there would surely be a loophole somewhere. Don’t mention others, even that wretched Makaji managed to perform a contract defying exit from the party. The proverb ‘sucking the bone marrow after hitting the bone*’, was created because of such malicious sluts.

(TN: Chinese idiom which means maximum cruel exploitation)

In Eros’s perspective, Reef was already forced into desperation. He had exhausted all trump cards, and his life was in their hands. Reef was only being stubborn because of that weird shield, and once it broke, then his heart’s defence would shatter as well. Then without saying, his only choice was dying earlier or later!

The two glanced at each other with conceitedness. Nobody would mind an excess of equipment that enhanced one’s survivability, of which the valuation remain constantly high. Reef was the party leader, his entire array of equipments would inevitably be worth much. These guys had the meat in their hands, the fish on the chopping board. Using both carrot and stick, they just had to extract oil from the trunk no matter what. Eros had since replaced Prince’s instructions with his own plans, intending to reap a fortune.

“Reef, you must consider carefully. Leave yourself a way out, don’t court death!”

That bowman was already exhausted from all that shooting, and kicked forward towards Reef. Appearing like he was about to unzip his pants and pee over Reef…..

But at this instant, a regiment of venomous dark-green vapor enveloped them; causing them to feel sluggish. Mogensha immediately tossed out his readied ‘Sparta spear’ vehemently. In the midst of rolling thunder and flashing lightning, a fanatical silver beam bolted towards Eros and that bowman. Thunder and lightning brought forth a paralytic effect, causing them to concurrently feel alarmed and wrathfully cry out. During that brief moment, their bodies were incapable of responding to their mind!

Meanwhile, Sheyan who had slowly encroached in 10 metres away from them, bent his knee; appearing like a short distance sprinter awaiting the resounding gunshot flag off. A regiment of dust erupted beneath his legs, as grains of sand sprayed 2-3 metres away.

With eyes combusting with wildfire, Sheyan had already gripped his long saber and leapt forward. This feeling…..could only be described with a high speed hummer jeep leaping over a towering sand dune. It was brimming with unworldly discontentment…...and insanity!

Sheyan emotionlessly beheaded downwards, the deep-blue glow showered down like a waterfall. That bowman yelped out frantically as he blocked with his left arm! His strength had been drained by 4 points, then how was he suppose to challenge a 49 points strength Sheyan. As blood splashed out, Sheyan’s one chop instantly coerced him into near-death state! (Mogensha had already attacked him previously, his HP wasn’t full)

Immediately, a dazzling radiance flashed from the bowman, an indication of consuming the honorary medicine dosage. Only this time, Mogensha’s AK unleashed its threat. DA DA DA! Burst shots resounded, unloading everything onto the rock ahead. Concurrently, that bowman was coincidentally about to step off the rock. In the end, it was like he had stepped against nothing, as he miserably tumbled down.

Raising his head in despair, he coincidentally caught sight of that pair of untamed wildfire passion in Sheyan’s eyes; as though it was invading into one’s soul. Of course, not forgetting that mesmerizing melancholic long saber!

***************

“We’ve arrived too late and let you suffered.” Sheyan reeled Reef in after bandaging him.

Reef’s face was still ashen. After exiting near-death state, he forcefully slapped Sheyan’s shoulder; his eyes still fiery. He then strangled that already sunken into near-death state bowman, and gradually added force. That guy was really unyielding, not pleading for mercy after being choked to death. Of course, he had no chance to even make a single sound.

After finishing him off, Reef’s emotions slightly cooled down. Sheyan then tossed over his ‘Endless Spirited Vodka’ as he gulped down two mouthfuls. As the alcohol hit him, strands of blood vessels popped distinctly from his eyes, as he abruptly roared out.

“Eros! I will definitely kill you!”

The reason Sheyan and Mogensha aimed the bowman first, was in consideration of Eros’s earlier performance; that his movement speed wasn’t considered that fast, and Mogensha could bite him down. Therefore, the bowman naturally took precedence. Unexpectedly, that Eros was a sly fox. Realizing something was wrong, he actually executed his life-saving ace - ‘Flash Migration’ ability. In a flash, he was 17-18 metres away, before utilizing full strength to flee.

If Mogensha did pursue with full might, he may be able to catch up to Eros. However, he chose to execute his ‘Beastly Instincts’ to assist Sheyan in delaying the enemy. In the end, a step too late resulted in a chance wasted. The prerequisites to chasing Eros had evolved to needing to invoke a long and arduous pursuit and battle. In this treacherous environment, pursuing the enemy and getting ambushed instead, would be attempting to be smart but having an egg smashed in the face. Hence, he could only swallow this belly of air.

The trio then assembled to discuss. Mogensha brought forward the event of him personally slaying off another noticeably weaker contestant beforehand. Moreover, that contestant with the silver longbow also displayed a definite disparity from an official Growth-Hunter. Therefore, Sheyan discovered that he had made certain misjudgments of the entire state of affairs; an inconsistency in determining the enemy group’s composition.

Deducing from the current state, from those contestants that had harassed them; their Growth-hunter count was roughly not even a third, and of those, majority were just reserve-duty Growth-hunters. Furthermore, ordinary contestants were also present.

Hence it could be confirmed, there was a possibility that these were party members of Prince Stalo that he had somehow brought to this world; and not those few solo Growth-hunters from the duelling previously. Since Aldaris and the others didn’t participate, the quality of aggressors had waned. However, their quantity still vastly exceeded Sheyan’s estimation!

Thinking of that, Sheyan immediately advocated to retreat. Although Reef was still reluctant; after considering that though they ate some bitterness, and suffered insults, they still managed to make an overall comeback and exterminate 3 foes! They had raked two blood keys, which was considered a compensation already. Pondering till that point, his emotions finally calmed down.

Perhaps due to other intense battles occurring elsewhere, the 3 didn’t encounter any pursuers after fleeing with full force. Not even 10 minutes later, they returned to RDA Hell’s Gate without a hitch. At least contestants wouldn’t dare cause a ruckus over here, and it could be deemed as a safe zone.
