Heroes' Prison

Chapter 459 - 449: Snatching the Giant General

Huang Yi focused his attention on the whip that Unbeaten had taken out.

The whip was very long, stretching to about seven or eight meters, and it appeared to be made out of a sinew of some sort of animal, with a grey color throughout, emitting a raw and primitive aura characteristic of demonic races.

Unbeaten went quickly to the side of the heavily wounded Giant General, dipping the whip into a wound on the Giant General’s body, staining it with the Giant General’s blood.

Instantly, the whip began to emit a black energy, acting like an absorbent sponge, starting to ceaselessly suck in the Giant General’s blood, its tip slowly turning ink-black, spreading bit by bit.

Seeing the speed of absorption, it was not something that could be fully absorbed in a short amount of time; Unbeaten stood by patiently waiting.

Huang Yi also stayed within that transparent water shield. His incarnation’s ears, taken from an approximately level 150 elf, were incredibly acute; he had just heard the Fallen Messenger’s words to Unbeaten and learned that the whip could control the Giant General, which is why he set his sights on the whip.

He planned to be the mantis stalking the cicada, awaiting Unbeaten to fill the whip with blood before he made his move to seize it, taking both the Giant General and the whip for himself. However, this was his incarnation, too weak to defeat Unbeaten. His only advantage now was in hiding in the shadows, unseen by Unbeaten, and he intended to use this advantage to win.

But for now, Huang Yi did not want to reveal his identity; he wished to continue hiding in the background, to avoid startling Unbeaten. He wanted to use Unbeaten in the future to gather information about The Seven Archdemons; thus revealing himself now would be premature.

Thinking this over, Huang Yi had an idea. His gaze landed on the Dragon Emperor Water Shield around him—crafted personally by the Sea Dragon Emperor, full of infinite wonders, it might yield unexpected effects.

With that thought, he brought the conch to his lips and whispered a message to the distant Sea Dragon Emperor, "Sea Dragon Emperor, it is not convenient for me to reveal my identity. You mentioned the Dragon Emperor Water Shield is highly covert, hard even for Celestial Realm Experts to discover. Can it help conceal my identity?"

Before long, the voice of the Sea Dragon Emperor, fighting whilst panting, came from the conch in Huang Yi’s hand, "Of course, it can. Your attacks within the Dragon Emperor Water Shield will be enveloped by it, not only concealing your identity but also blessing you with the power of the Dragon Emperor, turning your strike into a Dragon Emperor attack! He will never know it was you."

Huang Yi finally felt at ease, now with no worries to hold him back, he could boldly make his move. However, he had only one chance; if he could not kill Unbeaten in one strike, with the latter’s strength, he certainly would not be struck a second time.

At this very moment, countless players across Hero’s Continent were unaware that their future fate hinged on Huang Yi’s upcoming strike from countless miles away!

This would be an attack that decided fate!

Time ticked by, the whip absorbed more and more blood, and gradually there was only a small segment left unfilled with blood, soon to be fully accomplished!

A slight excitement appeared on Unbeaten’s face, his gaze fixed intensely on the whip!

At that moment, Huang Yi had also moved behind Unbeaten; from his storage ring, he quickly took out several magic potions that enhanced attack power and downed them all, significantly boosting his incarnation’s strength!

Then, using the Legendary Ghost Axe’s "Weapon Switch" attribute, he transformed the two-handed form of Ghost Axe into a one-handed axe, making the next attack an absolute attack, ignoring the target’s defense! Whatever attack power there was, that would be the damage inflicted!

He held the one-handed axe in his left hand, as he had Thunder Left Hand, with the greatest attack power in his left!

After completing all these preparations, Huang Yi took a deep breath and finally, struck the closest Unbeaten with his mightiest blow like a bolt of lightning—

"Hand of Execution—Heavy Judgment!"

He used, shockingly, his own level 95 Ultimate Move, raising Heavy Judgment’s multiplier from three to five!

With the aid of the magic potions, the Dragon Emperor Water Shield, and Thunder Left Hand, he had greatly increased his attack power, and with Weapon Switch, the attack would ignore the opponent’s defense!

Such a quintupled attack, even from an incarnation, was unparalleled!

A quintuple attack, although not equivalent to two Heavy Judgments, was precious in that it could be unleashed all at once, drastically increasing burst damage!

If Huang Yi attempted a second Heavy Judgment, the chance for an absolute attack with Weapon Switch would be gone, and so would the opportunity to attack without Unbeaten noticing and reacting. He had to strive to deliver the strongest burst of damage in one attack!

This was the very principle of the "Hand of Execution"Class Ultimate Move—deliver a decisive impact when there’s only one chance to attack!

Huang Yi’s axe was coming down fast, casting a sharp flash!

This was the hope of him and all of Hero’s Continent!

The result of this attack would determine the direction of Hero’s Continent for a long time to come!

At this time, Unbeaten, whose entire focus was on the whip that was about to be fully imbued with the Giant General’s blood, did not realize he was in a crisis!

Just at that moment, a sharp gleam suddenly flashed from the void behind him, crashing down upon his body with ferocity!

Through the gleam, one could vaguely see a transparent shield, much like a thin plastic film, enveloping the flash of light, enhancing its force even further!

Unbeaten had hardly had time to react when the radiance fiercely struck him!

The next moment, it exploded like a sun!

Unbeaten’s body directly burst into pieces scattered across the ocean!

Instakill!

In the strongest burst of instantaneous eruption, Huang Yi’s incarnation instakilled Unbeaten!

The fivefold attack power of Heavy Judgment played a decisive role!

And with this attack, since it was wrapped in the Dragon Emperor Water Shield, Huang Yi’s identity wasn’t exposed, not even a system kill prompt was received; Unbeaten was assumed to have been killed by the Sea Dragon Emperor.

Following Unbeaten’s death, the whip in his hand fell powerlessly, which wasn’t his item, but only borrowed from the Fallen Messenger. Hence it wouldn’t go into his storage ring upon his death!

Thus, a Giant General along with a whip that controlled the Giant General obediently floated in the seawater in front of Huang Yi, waiting for him to deal with it.

At that very moment, the whip finally absorbed enough of the Giant General’s Blood, emitting a blood-colored glow that faintly flickered, appearing profoundly mystical.

Huang Yi had previously overheard the Fallen Messenger talking about the use of the whip, which was like a treasure that required blood to recognize its master, needing to absorb the blood of the user after the Giant General’s blood.

The next moment, Huang Yi immediately produced a drop of his own blood and quickly dripped it onto the whip.

But when the drop of blood touched the whip, it was not absorbed; instead, it slid down into the sea, spreading like a drop of ink in water, quickly disappearing.

The whip actually rejected his blood!

"[System Prompt]You are not a creature of the Demonic Attributes, and the Giant General’s Whip cannot absorb your blood."

Hearing this prompt, Huang Yi smiled slightly, his body suddenly shimmering and instantly transforming into a pitch-black creature without eyes, unmistakably the Eyeless Demon form!

He then produced another drop of blood and dripped it onto the whip.

The Eyeless Demon was a true demonic creature; its blood should not be rejected any longer!

However, when that drop of blood was dripped onto the whip, the whip neither absorbed nor rejected it, and the blood just hung there without any response.

"[System Prompt]Your Eyeless Demon blood is too low-level, and the Giant General’s Whip cannot absorb your blood."

Huang Yi’s body shimmered again, reverting to his Beast King Form, staring motionlessly at the whip in front of him and the Giant General, who was rapidly regenerating, his brow deeply furrowed.

He was truly out of options now; his Eyeless Demon, being of the lowest tier of demonic creatures, couldn’t control the Giant General’s Whip. Even placing it before him was useless. His hope of controlling the Giant General was shattered!

Now, the time left to him was very short. With Unbeaten’s death, he would certainly notify the Fallen Messenger by special methods immediately. As soon as the Fallen Messenger returned, the Giant General would fall back into its hands, and Huang Yi’s identity might be potentially exposed.

Now, Huang Yi had to come up with a perfect solution in the shortest possible time!

He looked at the Giant General in front of him and tried attacking it with his Ghost Axe, but the damage he inflicted was far less than the Giant General’s life regeneration rate; his current strength was simply not enough to kill the Giant General!

Just then, a warning from the Sea Dragon Emperor suddenly came from the conch in his hand, "God of Slaughter, be cautious! The Fallen Messenger seems to have received some message and is now rushing back in your direction. Hide quickly!"

Hearing this, Huang Yi felt a heavy weight in his heart. He had to take action now, either immediately hide and let the Giant General fall into others’ hands, or deal with the Giant General in this brief period!

The next moment, Huang Yi took a deep breath and employed a method he had never used before!

He immediately took out the Book of Heroes from his storage ring, summoning the Heroes’ Prison!

A colossal dragon head suddenly floated on the sea surface, agile and majestic, its eyes like lightning as they furiously glared at the world. The vast open dragon’s mouth seemed ready to devour everything between heaven and earth. Now at level 96, the entrance to the Heroes’ Prison that Huang Yi summoned had long since changed from the past, becoming much more imposing!

Next, instead of immediately entering the Heroes’ Prison like before, he turned his gaze towards the Giant General!

He intended to confine the Giant General within the Heroes’ Prison! (To be continued. If you like this work, we welcome you to Starting Point (qidian.com) to cast Recommendation Tickets and Monthly Tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
