Chapter 39 Iron Fist!
Despite the raging flames consuming his body, gnawing at his bones, and seemingly spreading through his veins towards his internal organs, the relentless, excruciating pain brought Fang Senyan a strange sense of solace. It was as if enduring more suffering now would somehow offset the guilt of helplessly watching Mogansha die.
At this moment, Fang Senyan, wielding the +10 Deep Green set gloves with unparalleled ferocity, coupled with the power of a newly awakened Awakener, was at the zenith of his boiling momentum! Although these enemies were formidable, their most potent skills had been expended on the previous trump card team. Moreover, prolonged combat had left them all heavily afflicted with disease, hence the current stalemate.
If they were all in peak condition, Fang Senyan would have little chance of defeating Pulzibilah and his team alone, though being killed was equally unlikely. If the enemy had one or two more members, he would have to flee immediately.
Pulzibilah missed his strike, and KD immediately sighed, "Unfortunately for Lumm, he won't escape death after this missed attack."
Pulzibilah's expression darkened. He turned to the adjacent room and said, "Guli Te, I originally called you back to prevent the berserker-like Caicha of the Curse Extinction Path from ambushing us. I didn't expect this move to work out unexpectedly! With you here, even if we can't kill that sailor, retreating safely won't be difficult."
Guli Te emerged from the room, frowning. "That sailor is so strong? We can't kill him even when we're all together?"
KD calmly said, "Once he gets close, Boss has no room to maneuver. That guy is a dual-attribute specialist. My various weakening spells have their duration reduced by a full half on him!"
"The Earth Bind spell normally lasts for four seconds. He broke free in just one and a half seconds. Earlier, Boss used the magic core of the Flame Sprite Herdell at great cost. The continuous burning effect should have lasted twenty seconds, but it only burned for seven seconds on him! So, unless I use that one move... otherwise, I can't threaten him at all. Therefore, the main force to contend with him is still you."
Guli Te grumbled, "Damn it. Why didn't Iron Boss come with us? Otherwise, why would we be afraid of him? Ah... achoo!"
KD took a deep breath, regretfully saying, "Your Excellency wanted to use us to set up an ambush, needing only the most lethal members from the three teams. What would an MT (Meat Shield) do? This arrangement was meant for swift and decisive attacks, to overwhelm the enemy in one go. What would an MT do? Cough, cough, cough, cough. Unexpectedly, overwhelming the enemy in one go did happen. We ruthlessly suppressed the enemy to the brink of collapse, needing only one more finger to crush them. But, the person Your Excellency and the Curse Extinction Path jointly imprisoned made the biggest mistake!"
At this point, it would be strange if KD didn't have any complaints. Losing everything at the last minute, especially when the problem arose from what was thought to be the most reliable place, how could anyone not feel resentful? Meanwhile, Pulzibilah, still watching from the window, gasped, "Bosi is dead. The key is that he used an instant escape item but was still killed. That zi actually has the ability to interfere with spatial fluctuations. Bosi's escape failed..."
KD and Guli Te's expressions changed simultaneously.

Meanwhile, Lumm had just rushed into the stairwell and entered Fang Senyan's range of Horned Rage. Lumm felt a dizzy spell and then felt a fiery sensation behind his neck. Looking back, he saw Fang Senyan, still burning with dark flames and emitting smoke, close behind him.
Lumm was a determined person. Realizing he couldn't escape, he roared and swung his dagger backhandedly, slashing at Fang Senyan!
But Fang Senyan didn't dodge or evade, allowing the dagger to draw a bloody line across his neck. Instead, he punched Lumm heavily in the face. Lumm was also a burly man, but he was sent flying by Fang Senyan's punch! With a scream, he crashed into the wall, scattering pieces of the hard cement!
At this moment, Fang Senyan's punch was incredibly powerful. Each punch averaged at least five hundred points of theoretical damage, plus the additional power of Muscle Explosion. More importantly, Lumm's primary attribute was Agility, and his secondary attribute was Perception… which meant crushing damage!!
With one punch, three shocking numbers popped up. A crisp "ka le ka le" sound came from Lumm's back, indicating that three ribs had been broken. His vision blurred, and blood spurted from his nose and mouth.
The power of this punch was not limited to this. Lumm's body glowed with light. The beneficial state he had applied to his body was scattered by Fang Senyan's punch, turning into spots of light. This was Fang Senyan's passive ability: Power of the Sky!
After delivering this punch, Fang Senyan didn't pursue. He lowered his head and stood in place like a blood-soaked demon, emanating a chilling aura: "When you were aggressively chasing down my brothers, did you ever think about how they felt? It should be just as desperate and helpless as you are now!"
Lumm was both shocked and angry. He gritted his teeth and said, "Kill me if you want, what's with all the nonsense!"
Fang Senyan coldly said, "Although you killed my brothers, people die, and we who survive must continue. If you can come up with something to buy your life, why not spare your dog life?"
Lumm's heart suddenly jumped. Of course, it would be best if he didn't have to die. Hope immediately arose in his heart, "Okay! But I have to meet up with my companions before I give you something to buy my life. Otherwise, my life and death are in your hands now, what if you go back on your word after taking the thing?"
Fang Senyan said indifferently, "Okay, but to prevent you from going back on your word, you have to trade me the Honor Potion you have on you."
Lumm's heart suddenly burned with hope. If he could meet up with KD and the others alive, his chances of survival would greatly increase. Moreover, when his comrades were numerous, it wouldn't be up to him whether he gave it or not. Could this guy be a muscle-bound idiot with a simple mind, agreeing to such a condition? Compared to that, what did an Honor Potion even amount to? He immediately applied for a trade.
After Fang Senyan obtained the Honor Potion, he examined it and suddenly roared, "You dare to deceive me with a fake?"
Lumm was shocked and angry, crying out his innocence: "How could there be a fake, where are there fake Honor Potions? ... Hmm, something seems wrong?"
At this moment, Fang Senyan, using the opportunity of handing over the Honor Potion, had closed to within two meters of him. Another punch came, and Lumm, caught off guard, had no chance to react. He was punched and sent flying again, crashing through the door next to him. Furniture inside collapsed in a series of loud noises!
Amidst the dust and debris, Fang Senyan nimbly and ferociously rushed in. In order to pursue speed, he even broke through the wall directly, his momentum undiminished. Lumm had just rolled and gotten up when he was smashed by Fang Senyan and sent flying another ten feet, his back hitting a pillar. His whole body bounced back, and he didn't know how many bones were broken. He finally entered a near-death state.
He had just struggled to curse when he suddenly found the light dimming. Fang Senyan had leaped up and knelt heavily on Lumm's chest with his knee. The crisp sound of his breastbone being broken rang clearly in his ears, along with several streams of blood mixed with stomach contents spurting from his ears and nose. Lumm's eyes were filled with madness and unwillingness, his face suddenly turning blue-purple, his facial features distorted out of shape. He died instantly! Perishing under Fang Senyan's iron fist.
*
Fang Senyan used words to trick him earlier, first to play with him like a cat catching a mouse, letting him suddenly fall from the ecstasy of escape into the abyss of death, and to take revenge. Secondly, he was somewhat wary of the three-man team above, so he used words to dispel Lumm's fighting spirit, unwilling to spend too much effort on him. Now, time was tight. The magic sniper who killed Mogansha and the guy who could use powerful abilities to restrain him were both targets that had to be killed. The others could be let go, but these two had to die!
However, Fang Senyan could sense that the Cursed Resentment was released by two people working together, and his breaking free seemed to have brought them a strong backlash. They were staying in place, not moving, either unconscious or seriously injured. Therefore, the trio he was about to face were formidable enemies.
Taking two or three deep breaths, Fang Senyan hastily bandaged himself up and then followed his senses, kicking the door in front of him. No matter what was behind the door, he was fearless!
The heavy anti-theft door made a loud noise. A clear footprint was engraved on it, and the surrounding bricks and concrete also cracked open, collapsing with a roar, smoke billowing. Then the anti-theft door naturally rolled and crashed into the back.
However, after the steel door disappeared into the smoke, it seemed to have encountered something incredibly terrifying. There was a series of chaotic noises, followed by a gust of wind. The heavy anti-theft door was actually kneaded into a ball of steel like a piece of paper, and then thrown back at Fang Senyan!
