Chapter 335: Chapter 213: Miracle Reappears, The Giant Descends (5000 words)_3
"Alright, let this Big Fool cover our retreat..."
"Hahaha, only a fool would die alongside these ordinary people. With our strength, in less than three years, we’re sure to make a comeback and establish a new Yala Group."
"Exactly. Su Liang will definitely die in the mouth of this monster, and no one will ever know what truly happened here. Let the Beast Cultivation Main City take the blame!"
"Hahaha, of course. Our Yala Group was too weak to resist being annexed by the Beast Cultivation Main City, so they orchestrated this entire scheme..."
The three laughed heartily as they slaughtered swarms of Bloodsucking Bats blocking their path, retreating quickly.
"You damned bastards..."
Under the enveloping black clouds, Su Liang’s fury boiled over as he witnessed the scene, cursing furiously.
Staying cloistered in the Ivory Tower of the school for too long had left him naive, actually trusting these three scoundrels.
Enraged, Su Liang unleashed Thunder Power, his form transforming into a streak of lightning, narrowly bursting through a gap in the black clouds and charging headfirst into the high-altitude darkness.
"Zzzzz..."
In an instant, thunder rolled through the black clouds, with violent flashes and explosive booms clearing a portion of the darkness.
But within seconds, the black clouds churned and covered the gap once more.
"Shriek!!"
The massive bat flapped its wings, unleashing a ferocious black gale that rushed toward Su Liang.
Su Liang’s expression changed, his figure transforming into lightning as he streaked toward the direction where the three were fleeing.
"Whoosh..."
The violent black gale followed closely, its speed no slower than Su Liang’s.
In just moments, Su Liang, now lightning incarnate, caught up to the three.
"What..."
"So fast..."
"Impossible..."
The three were shocked, and the next second, they found themselves engulfed by an endless barrage of thunder.
"Argh..."
Their bodies were paralyzed instantly, only to be swallowed by the black gale moments later.
The black gale, having devoured the three, halted its pursuit and swept back toward the massive bat.
"Shriek..."
The giant bat opened its enormous mouth, and the black gale flowed inside, causing the red glow in its eyes to dim slightly.
After a brief and eerie calm, the giant bat let out a piercing screech, shooting out three black humanoid figures from its mouth.
It’s them!
Su Liang was stunned.
At this moment, the three were surrounded by black mist, their eyes devoid of life, replaced by intense deathly aura and madness.
What have I just done?
Regret consumed Su Liang.
"Roar!!"
The trio roared wildly, issuing beast-like cries, their eyes glowing blood-red. With mouths full of feral fangs, their forms blurred into black shadows, surging toward Su Liang like lightning.
"Bang bang bang..."
In an instant, the three black shadows flickered around Su Liang, triggering spatial distortions with deafening thuds.
"Get lost!"
With a thunderous roar, Su Liang unleashed Thunder Power mingled with golden energy, quelling the noise. The three black shadows were repelled by immense strength and hovered slowly in mid-air.
Amidst them stood Su Liang, his chest heaving heavily, his breath labored. Instinctively, he wiped the blood from his fist.
"This... their strength..."
His gaze filled with horror as he glanced at the distant giant bat, clenching his fists tightly.
Damn it, there’s no way we can win!
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, down below in the hellish Yara City, a golden beam of light shot skyward, scattering countless golden Light Particles across the land.
In an instant, the swarm of bats became restless, and the black mist surrounding the three figures subtly receded.
Su Liang’s eyes lit up—it’s Qin Shou!
The pyramid weapon created using the Mutant Front Limbs—it was familiar to him.
But soon enough, he shook his head and chuckled bitterly. When had he started putting his hopes on that kid?
Although cunning, that guy would likely be preoccupied with surviving this battle.
...
In the depths of Yara City...
Qin Shou waved to retrieve the pyramid, finally able to use his Battle Armor to amplify his strength without reserve.
Leaping forward, a double Nuclear Explosion Kick!
"Boom!!"
In mid-air, a flame barrier over a kilometer in diameter enveloped tens of thousands of Bloodsucking Bats. The unleashed energy and radiance illuminated the entire city—a second blazing sun.
"Chirp chirp chirp..."
"Boom..."
With a deafening explosion, the fiery barrier burst apart, reducing countless Bloodsucking Bats to ash, which scattered across the earth.
As searing heatwaves swept through the city, Qin Shou rode the current and crashed into the ground. A massive Flame Rune was etched onto the earth; humanoid monsters nearby shrieked miserably as flames consumed them.
Extreme Cold Energy transformed into a barrage of icy spikes, covering the area and freezing dozens of humanoid monsters into icy sculptures.
The massive Bone Claw behind Leng Wanbai flapped gently, descending slowly to Qin Shou’s side.
"Mr. Su isn’t leaving. What should we do?"
Leng Wanbai’s icy demeanor faded, replaced with a worried expression.
Qin Shou rubbed his temples, glancing at Su Liang struggling against three vampires in the sky.
Then, turning to the giant bat constantly spewing black clouds, he felt an internal conflict.
"If we stay here, Big Black Face is definitely done for. By himself, he can’t possibly hold out until reinforcements from the Beast Cultivation Main City arrive."
Looking at the few remaining members of the Yala Group, Qin Shou sighed: "The higher-ups of the Yala Group have all fled. This city is beyond saving."
Leng Wanbai’s mood sank. "Is there really no way to save it?"
Qin Shou nodded. "If we were dealing with something just a bit stronger than Big Black Face, I might have an idea.
But this monster is too terrifying—at least Nightmare Five Star strength. It’s not something we can handle right now."
"What about Mr. Su? Judging by his determination, he won’t give up on this place even if it costs him his life."
Qin Shou’s expression twisted with unease. "He won’t last much longer. When he gets gravely injured, we’ll forcefully take him out."
Just as the words left his mouth, a loud explosion echoed in the sky. Thunder Power erupted, golden energy dissipated, and Su Liang’s body fell like a meteorite near them, kicking up a spray of rubble.
Leng Wanbai: "..."
Qin Shou: "..."
"Mr. Su is seriously injured now, right?"
"Yeah, he is."
"Should we take him out now?"
"No, we’re staying."
"Why?"
Qin Shou rubbed his forehead and pointed to the sky.
"Boom..."
The ground quaked as three black shadows descended from the sky, surrounding Qin Shou, Leng Wanbai, and the crater made by Su Liang.
The three monsters extended ten pitch-black claws, revealing sinister fangs, and their glowing red eyes chilled the soul.
Qin Shou gestured toward the crater caused by Su Liang and said to Leng Wanbai: "Xiao Bai, check on Big Black Face."
"What about you?" Leng Wanbai, her breathing labored from the oppressive aura of the three black shadows, perspiration beading on her forehead and face pale, asked.
"Me?"
Qin Shou’s palm emitted a faint glow, as he forced a bitter smile.
"In the depths of despair, a ray of hope will arise. Let’s hope for a miracle."
"Roar!!"
Suddenly, shards of rock erupted beneath the three monsters as they charged at Qin Shou, their raw physical strength sending shockwaves through the air as they hurled massive punches.
The atmosphere seemed to tear apart, bearing down heavily on Qin Shou’s shoulders.
Qin Shou raised his right hand, the Divine Light Stick positioned against his chest.
Light!
"Buzz!!"
In an instant, the Divine Light Stick expanded its golden wings, unleashing infinite Light Energy that formed a radiant gold armor around Qin Shou’s chest.
At the same time, the immense Light Energy transformed into a dazzling golden beam of light several tens of meters wide, shooting into the heavens.
"Boom!!"
The beam pierced the clouds as the black vortex above churned violently. The giant bat shrieked with unease.
Before the eyes of everyone, a faint sunlight broke through the high-altitude dark clouds, illuminating the city engulfed in shadows.
The Light Giant—descends!
