Heroes' Prison

Chapter 533 - 522

Miyamoto Musashi immediately fell silent, quietly opening the leaderboard to take a look.

The next moment, his body trembled slightly, and he took a step back!

His eyes bulged as if he had seen a number that should have been impossible!

Level 119!

Huang Yi’s level of 119 was like a sharp dagger, deeply stinging his eyes!

And he, who ranked second on the level leaderboard, had only a mere level of 103!

"No matter how strong the enemy, after meeting the God of Slaughter, they all end up being killed by him! This time, even the Heavenly Domain Expert Man Tian is no exception, the Dragon City Territory of the God of Slaughter seems like an unbreakable place, whoever goes there has no return," Zhitian Shi’s voice, carrying a complex emotion, looked at Miyamoto Musashi concernedly, stretched out her delicate little hand, and grabbed his large hand, gently saying, "Can you still beat him in tomorrow’s match? If not, let me take your place!"

Zhitian Shi spoke lightly, and if others heard this, they wouldn’t know how shocked they would be.

Miyamoto Musashi was already the strongest in Japan, and Zhitian Shi, a woman, actually asked Miyamoto Musashi to give up his place for her!

How powerful was she?

Miyamoto Musashi seemed to be touched, turned his head to look at Zhitian Shi, and finally, a soft light flashed in his eyes. He reached out to touch Zhitian Shi’s hair and said, "You’re my trump card, and no one knows yet that you are my sister. Unless it’s absolutely necessary, I won’t let you fight."

Having said that, he took a deep breath, stabilized his emotions, turned to look at the bright moon outside the window again, smiled faintly, and said, "The whole world thinks I made it to the finals only with potions, but who knows my true strength. Even if the God of Slaughter has killed Man Tian, so what? This will only make my victory tomorrow more spectacular, let the audience see a more exciting match, making my title of Martial Saint even more prestigious. Martial Saint is a title I originally wanted for myself, I cannot allow others to have it, tomorrow’s battle, no matter how strong he is, he is destined to lose at my hands. I will become both Martial Emperor and Martial Saint at the same time! I will conquer the Hero’s Continent! I will personally slay the God of Slaughter beneath my steed!"

By the end, Miyamoto Musashi’s tone had become slightly manic, Huang Yi’s consecutive increases in strength had already made him feel enormous pressure.

"Maybe it’s not as bad as we think, the God of Slaughter has killed Man Tian, such a big incident, the Half-Beast Holy Land will definitely seek severe retaliation, perhaps the God of Slaughter won’t last until tomorrow," Zhitian Shi seemed to sense the pressure in Miyamoto Musashi’s heart and immediately consoled him.

Just then, suddenly a voice echoed between heaven and earth—

"[System Announcement]: [God of Slaughter]killed Man Tian, one of the Four Great Protectors of the Half-Beast Holy Land, igniting the Heaven-reaching Fury of the Half-Beast Holy Land on the Central Continent, and is listed as the number one enemy of the Half-Beastmen Clan. The leader of the Half-Beast Holy Land, Savage Saint (Level 295 hero), is swiftly headed to the Hero’s Continent to pursue and kill [God of Slaughter]."

This system announcement, like the decree of a god, resounded through every continent and corner of the world, heard by countless players and NPCs!

"Brother, we’ve won the team championship in advance," upon hearing this system announcement, Zhitian Shi closed her eyes, her tone more relaxed than ever before.

...

At this moment, the entire world had just been set ablaze by that system announcement!

The Half-Beast Holy Land finally came to the last step with Huang Yi!

Before, Huang Yi had managed to disrupt the Half-Beast Holy Land’s pursuits time and again. But the death of Man Tian was now a loss the Half-Beast Holy Land could no longer bear, and even their leader personally entered the fray!

No one expected that, after Huang Yi killed the hundreds of thousands of ordinary Half-Beast players including Feng Zhi in Dragon City, it would escalate to this point! If Huang Yi and Feng Zhi could have foreseen this outcome, no one knows what they would think.

However, on the other hand, it’s quite extraordinary for a player to battle a race for so long, still standing tall and growing ever stronger, to the point that the race leader personally deals with him. Except for Huang Yi, no one else has ever managed to do this to date!

This night was destined to stir the emotions of countless players. Tomorrow would be the team finals of the martial arts tournament, and this evening, the Half-Beast Holy Land’s Leader, Savage Saint, would surely arrive at Hero’s Continent. It was quite possible that he could kill Huang Yi all the way down to Level 1!

Once Huang Yi fell, there would be no point in participating in tomorrow’s team match. With Miyamoto Musashi, that Holy Domain Warrior, securing the Martial Arts Team’s position, winning the competition would be a breeze.

At this moment, the reporters gathered outside Dragon City had not dispersed. The system announcement that had just been broadcast not only resonated through The Second World but also echoed through their live streams to the forums, alerting even players who weren’t online.

Some reporters hurriedly analyzed the recent announcement in detail: "Dear audience, there is a new twist in the tale. It turns out that the deed of God of Slaughter last night was the killing of that Heavenly Domain Expert from the Half-Beast Holy Land who had been sent to pursue him! No wonder his level has soared by five levels all at once! Such a feat is unimaginable! But the latest announcement has cast a shadow over this affair."

"The leader of the Half-Beast Holy Land, Savage Saint, is a top-level Heavenly Domain Hero at Level 295, on the verge of breaking through to the Divine Domain. More importantly, he is a legendary character, far stronger than others at the same level! Such a peerless Overlord descending upon Hero’s Continent tonight to personally pursue God of Slaughter... How will God of Slaughter deal with him?"

"Based on the information we’ve collected so far, God of Slaughter seemingly has no means to counter Savage Saint and can only choose to hide, for instance, within sanctuaries like the Tower of Pantheons. By doing so, even Savage Saint won’t be able to threaten him temporarily. However, this would greatly demoralize the Heroes’ Guild, and it would be disadvantageous for tomorrow’s team match. Moreover, the territory of the Hero Guild would not escape disaster, as even the Heavenly Curtain Barrier would be breached! This time, the unstoppable momentum of God of Slaughter is bound to come to an end..."

Almost everyone believed that Huang Yi had no escape this time. How could a player stand a chance when the leader of the Half-Beast Holy Land personally came after him?

The only way out was to hide, within the Tower of Pantheons, or to simply log off!

There was no possibility of fighting back! Even if Dragon City had numerous Guardians, they would be mere fodder, unable to stop Savage Saint, the top-level Heavenly Domain Hero.

Meanwhile, Huang Yi, still riding the Two-Headed Lin with a troop of Guardians, was returning to Dragon City. His brows were tightly furrowed, and he pondered deeply as he traveled. The group of Guardians behind him was also silent, having heard the system announcement as well.

The Half-Beast Holy Land must have used some method to learn of his killing of Man Tian, opting not to send other Heavenly Domain Experts but instead to have the Leader take matters into his own hands. This was a bit tricky; Savage Saint was not only Level 295 but also a hero. Such a character would rank quite high even within Heroes’ Prison.

During his quest for the Rare Class, Huang Yi had killed a Level 250 Hydra Death Scale, with the number 250. Savage Saint was 45 levels higher than Hydra Death Scale! It is estimated that only criminals within the top one hundred of Heroes’ Prison could withstand someone like Savage Saint.

At this moment, Huang Yi received a message from Qin Shiyu—

"Brother Yi, can Dragon City hold out? If it can’t, then so be it. As long as you are safe, we can always make a comeback."

Seeing the message, Huang Yi stroked his chin, thought for a while, and replied: "I’ll do my best! Have the brothers in the guild scatter to different cities and not return to Dragon City."

This time, Huang Yi’s words carried a weight that wasn’t present before, lacking his usual confidence.

The pursuit by Savage Saint would be the greatest crisis he had ever faced! One misstep could lead to permanent doom.

"God of Slaughter, do you have a way to preserve the territory?" At that moment, Sand King, unable to hold back, asked. It was the first Guardian of this territory, the one that had followed Huang Yi the longest. The territory held sentimental value in its heart. More importantly, like all other Guardians, its fate was bound to the territory. If the Subsidiary Battle Flag was destroyed, all the Guardians would die.

With Sand King’s question, the hearts of all the Guardians were suddenly pulled with it as they all turned their gaze toward Huang Yi, waiting for his response.

The strength of these more than one hundred Guardians all surpassed Huang Yi’s. Their forms were fierce, and their auras powerful, but at this moment, they each placed their hope in Huang Yi, who was weaker than them. They had always been his protectors, but at this critical juncture, it was his turn to protect them.

Huang Yi turned around, scanning all the Guardians, his gaze passing through their varied eyes and towering and squat figures. These Guardians were akin to his own people; it would be too regrettable if they simply perished. Moreover, hiding was not his style—it would be quite inconvenient over time. If Savage Saint stayed in Hero’s Continent, he wouldn’t be able to lead a normal life!

"Stay in Dragon City for now! Wait for my word; I’ll personally handle this matter. Dragon City is not just where your life resides—it’s also where my honor lies. You are all my heroes, and I won’t abandon you," Huang Yi solemnly promised this to the heroes, as if making a vow.

After speaking, Huang Yi spurred the Two-Headed Lin, speeding back towards Dragon City! With Savage Saint’s strength, his descent upon Hero’s Continent could happen at any moment. Huang Yi had to hasten his pace!

Before long, Huang Yi led the more than one hundred Guardians back to Dragon City. (To be continued.
