Heroes' Prison

Chapter 686 - 659: The Guardian Makes a Move

At this moment, Huang Yi was still relentlessly reaping lives in the plaza, as members of the Martial Arts Guild scattered and fled, utterly lacking the strength for battle.

In his estimation, there was no one in the Martial Arts Guild who could match him now, which meant that they could only send a Guardian to kill him. As Guardians were NPCs, his Slaughter Curse would not grant him the attribute-doubling effect.

"Come forth, Blood God!" At that moment, Huang Yi immediately used Nefalem’s Demon God Coexistence skill and summoned his second Contract Partner, the Blood God!

In an instant, the bizarre form of the Blood God was revealed before the eyes of the entire world. With eight blood vessels supporting its enormous heart, it appeared like an octopus, highly conspicuous on the battlefield. It was slightly stronger than the Barbarian God and more suitable for group combat!

"Finish them off!" Huang Yi commanded the Blood God.

"As you wish, Master!" The heart of the Blood God bobbed up and down, as if nodding in agreement.

Immediately after, it extended its four main arteries, each targeting the airspace in the four cardinal directions—east, south, west, and north. The heart suddenly swelled, like a balloon on the brink of bursting, creating a certain oppressive force as it readied itself to explode!

"Boom!" All at once, the Blood God’s heart contracted violently, and endless fresh blood was forced out, jetting from the four arteries into the sky, spraying like a sprinkler watering a garden!

These blood streams were the corrosive blood from the Dragon Tomb Blood Pool mixed from the blood of countless Holy Domain Beasts of the Demonic Beast Mountain Range. Originally, this blood was meant for the Resurrection of the King of Curses’ incarnation, but the Blood God had drained it all clean!

But now, the Blood God sprayed the blood anew, showering the entire plaza with the corrosive liquid as easily as watering flowers. The Attack Range far exceeded Huang Yi’s wide-reaching attack skills!

"Hiss, hiss, hiss!" Instantly, a dense chorus of corrosive sounds arose. Hundreds of thousands of players were drenched in the Blood God’s sprayed blood, suffering severe corrosion and sustaining massive sustained damage.

"Nicely done!" Witnessing this, Huang Yi nodded in satisfaction. Then riding on the Little Dragon, he continued to reap lives across the plaza.

The massive wings of Little Dragon obscured the moonlight as it glided back and forth over the plaza, leaving trails of Magma, dispersing poison fog, flashing lightning, and roaring thunder. When calm returned, the place was in shambles, the ground littered with corpses.

Huang Yi’s previously slain incarnation was not to be outdone, immediately opting for Resurrection and reappearing at the Respawn Point in Northern Sea City.

At this time, there was a sea of people there, as the hundreds of thousands of players who had been killed in the plaza were resurrecting here. They had not realized that Huang Yi’s incarnation had also resurrected there and left the security of the Respawn Point Barrier as usual!

"Judgment!"

"End of the World!"

"Scorched Earth!"

"Storm of Thunder Clouds!"

Right then, Huang Yi’s incarnation burst out of the Respawn Point, unleashing four enormous attacks! Though the incarnation was weaker than his real body, it was still invincible against these ordinary players!

Just like that, the area outside the Respawn Point immediately turned into a Hell on Earth, as players who had just stepped out from the point were unexpectedly hit hard! They fell in droves, transforming into lifeless bodies, dropping equipment that shone bleakly under the ghastly moonlight.

Even if some were able to resist in time, they posed no threat to Huang Yi’s incarnation, whose attacks barely scratched him. Moreover, Huang Yi possessed an "Bloodthirsty Slaughter" equipment with an attached skill; whenever he was low on health, he could use his Rage Value to heal.

With the aid of the Blood God, his real body, and his incarnation, Huang Yi’s killing speed soared dramatically, with intense Battle Merits and Experience Points rolling in every second. He couldn’t even keep up with the flickering numbers!

The count of players he killed rocketed past one milestone after another, 400,000, 500,000, 600,000, 700,000...

His military rank rapidly advanced from Second Lieutenant to First Lieutenant, Captain...

His Level shot up quickly from Level 151 to Level 152, Level 153, Level 154...

With his Bloodstained War Halberd upgraded to the Epic Tier, killing one person would increase his Attack Power by one point, and he had already reached the upper limit of 100,000 points...

He was now growing stronger and more invincible with every battle, with fewer and fewer able to pose a threat to him!

"God of Slaughter has been promoted to Captain!" Some reporters announced this groundbreaking news to the global audience. Huang Yi now stood alone on the military rank leaderboard as a Captain!

"God of Slaughter has reached Level 155!" Some players who were checking the leaderboards suddenly noticed that Huang Yi’s level had once again pulled far ahead on the ranking!

Huang Yi was like a rising Sun, growing swiftly before the eyes of the entire world. The palpable surge in strength was evident. The leaderboards acted as a gauge, reflecting the numerical values of his advancing power.

"What should we do? Our forces are of no use coming here now!" At that moment, the experts from other Guilds of the Land of Dongying looked at each other. They had originally come with a formidable group of top-tier experts, but under these circumstances, they clearly stood no chance against Huang Yi.

"Let’s retreat! God of Slaughter just said he only has a beef with the Martial Arts Guild, not with the rest of the Dongying Guilds. Let’s turn a blind eye this time, to avoid provoking this formidable foe and bringing disaster upon ourselves. Miyamoto Musashi brought this upon himself; if he hadn’t provoked God of Slaughter, why would the latter come cause chaos in the Land of Dongying? Let him clean up his own mess!" At that moment, the Deputy Guild Leader Fengxi of the Dongying Guild suddenly spoke out, suggesting retreat. As a heavy-hitter on the scene, his words carried significant weight.

Hearing this, Heavenly Dao next to him stroked his chin, falling silent, lacking the decisiveness he had upon arrival.

After a while, Heavenly Dao turned his head to look at another vice president, Zhan Dao, and asked, "What do you think?"

Zhan Dao pursed his lips and finally nodded, saying, "I agree with Fengxi’s view. Now, God of Slaughter’s strength far exceeds our expectations, and it’s useless for us to rush in; it would be tantamount to throwing our lives away. Considering the situation, Miyamoto Musashi will definitely send out a Guardian to deal with God of Slaughter. The Guardian’s strength is far beyond our ability to contend with, and our presence here won’t be of any help! Facing the Guardian, God of Slaughter will surely die!"

"Since you all agree to retreat, then let’s pull out!" Finally, seeing that the two vice presidents had united their opinions, Heavenly Dao conveniently made a decision and decided to retreat.

Having said that, Heavenly Dao took the lead in turning around and striding towards the direction of the Teleport Plaza. Zhan Dao and Fengxi, the two vice presidents, also turned to leave, and all the high-level members of the Dongying Guild instantly followed suit and retreated.

With the departure of the Dongying Guild, it immediately set off a chain reaction as the rest hastened their departure, not wanting any part in the feud between Huang Yi and the Martial Arts Guild.

In almost an instant, the reinforcements that the Martial Arts Guild had finally invited retreated in droves, leaving the Martial Arts Guild isolated and vulnerable once again!

Gradually, the players in the plaza had been cleanly slain by Huang Yi, leaving only endless corpses and equipment in sight. Some players had fled the massacre, as Huang Yi had not killed them all.

Nevertheless, the majority of players still died by his hand, and his military rank level rose once more, from Captain to Major!

This was a whole new stage for him; previously he had been a "Commissioned Officer", but now he had advanced to the level of "Senior Officer"!

[Major] (Military Rank, Senior Officer)

Healing effectiveness from fellow countrymen players increased by 13%

Attack power against enemy country players increased by 13%

Movement speed increased by 12%

Experience Points gained from killing enemy country players doubled.

In war, Battle Merits lost upon death reduced by 20%.

The Major rank not only added an attribute but also improved the existing ones. This included Experience Points gained from killing players! His leveling speed was set to soar even higher!

...

Outside the Respawn Point, Huang Yi’s incarnation continued the slaughter. The players mostly hid behind the Barrier of the Respawn Point, not daring to come out again.

Just then, Huang Yi suddenly saw a peculiar silhouette appear in front of him!

The figure was a one-eyed Swordsman with a powerful aura, wearing an eyepatch over his left eye. In his hands, he held a serrated greatsword that looked less like a sword and more like a saw, exuding a deadly force.

As if taking a leisurely stroll, he moved within Huang Yi’s attack range as if he didn’t feel the surrounding assaults at all.

Seeing this person, Huang Yi’s heart sank.

According to his attack monitor, this Swordsman was a Level 165 Territory Guardian!

"Swoosh!" In the next moment, the Swordsman suddenly transformed into a shadow and rushed towards Huang Yi’s incarnation.

Huang Yi’s incarnation immediately flapped its wings, trying to dodge the attack. But it was just his incarnation, and the Swordsman’s speed was too swift to evade.

With the speed of lightning, the Swordsman swung his giant sword and struck down hard on Huang Yi’s incarnation!

"Boom!" Instantly, Huang Yi’s incarnation was instakilled, dying extremely cleanly.

The strike from the NPC Guardian was truly extraordinary; Huang Yi’s moment of weakness had finally arrived!

Level 150 was a significant threshold; NPCs above this level experienced a dramatic surge in strength. The Guardian was a Level 165 NPC, with full strength and unharmed.

Comparatively, Huang Yi’s incarnation had only 50% of the main body’s Attributes, clearly no match for it!

Judging from the speed of the Level 165 NPC, it would take roughly ten minutes to reach the Central Plaza from the Respawn Point! By then, Huang Yi’s main body would be the one facing the threat.

"Little Dragon, let’s get out of here quickly and engage in guerrilla warfare!" At this moment, Huang Yi’s main body patted Little Dragon’s head and said solemnly.

"Yiyaya!" Little Dragon seemed to sense the severity of the situation and immediately flew over the deserted plaza, heading towards a street outside the plaza. (To be continued.
