Chapter 1143 1143: Blood Tomb (2)
Groooaaan!!!
Within a large, dark hall hundreds of meters underground...
"I thought no one would dare come here again. Umm! Just come alone! Only one more person, then I'll be able to live again! Ha ha ha!" a hoarse and eerie voice sounded from the large coffin in the middle of the dark hall.
When his hoarse voice stopped, a figure walked in, knelt next to the coffin, and answered politely and humbly, "Master, please rest assured. We'll never disappoint you. We'll catch this human. I'll never let him escape from here!"
"I always believe in your abilities, my loyal protectors. But this matter can only be done by low-level people. You all must still perform the ritual and come back to life with me. I don't want anything to go wrong," the owner of that hoarse voice spoke again. He did not care at all who had wandered into the tomb. And he despised that person so much that he did not even think to send his four extremely talented protectors to deal with him.
"No need to worry about that, Master. I'll send Devil Blood Slaughterer to capture that human!" Another figure suddenly appeared, kneeling and proudly saying. Before he turned to wave his hand to signal his subordinate to go out and do the task he had ordered.
"Protector Ignis, it should be my subordinate rather than yours to do this task. Why did you take over my duty?!" The first protector was very dissatisfied with the second protector, who wanted to take over his duties and accomplishments.
Huh!
"So what? Since you keep chattering and won't take action. So, I ordered my people to take care of it in your place. What did I do wrong?" the second protector replied indifferently and even made a mocking face.
Ha ha ha!
"The two of you're still fighting like always, Protector Ignis and Protector Aqua! But the two of you are already too late. I sent my men to deal with that human immediately after he entered the tomb. In order not to waste time and not to make Master have to wait a long time!"
Hah!?
But at the moment the two protectors were quarreling, the third protector emerged and smiled contentedly at the two protectors. Because he had ordered his subordinates to go out and deal with the person who had entered the tomb in the first place. He knew that his master needed the last soul to perform a resurrection ritual. And to make an accomplishment for himself, he ordered his underlings without any delay.
"You didn't do a bad job, Protector Ventus! But you must have forgotten that I was aware of that human from the moment he entered the tomb. And I have already sent my people to welcome him!" But as soon as the third protector finished speaking, the fourth protector, who was the last one, appeared and spoke with a satisfied smile on his face.
You!
Protector Terra!!!
The three protectors' faces turned sheepish upon hearing that. They had just realized that Protector Terra was the one guarding the outer area of the tomb. Therefore, he was the first to know when someone entered the tomb and was able to act before the other protectors.
"What are you quarreling for? This is just a little matter. It doesn't matter who did the work this time. What matters is the results after our resurrection!" The owner of the hoarse voice could not help but feel tired of his four protectors. But he did not scold them because the four had done everything for him. So, he just warned the four of them to stop fighting.
Yes, sir, Master!!!
Returning to Zheng-Fu...
Upon entering Blood Tomb, Zheng-Fu found that the tomb's corridors looked very ordinary. It looked like a normal walkway, only it was deep underground. Aside from the aura of death, that place was no different from the underground secret room of a human house.
"Is this really a tomb? Why haven't I seen any demon monsters yet?" Zheng-Fu could not help but wonder how that place could be so scary and dangerous that it had been classified as a Red Six-Star Mission. He had not encountered any danger yet. There was not even a demon monster, according to the previous hunters' reports. Except for the spirit energy of the guardian at the entrance.
"Or did someone come here and exterminate all those demon monsters?" There was only one reason Zheng-Fu could think of at that time. Because the outer area and the entrance to the tomb did not have any demon monsters.
Groooaaan! Groooaaan!!!
Hah!
"Speaking of chickens, chickens come!"
But suddenly, Zheng-Fu felt the creatures moving towards him at speed from beneath the ground. And from what he could feel, the energy level of the creatures was only at the advanced Genuine Deity Stage. It did not frighten Zheng-Fu at all. Instead, he felt rather glad.
Booooom!!!
Gahhhh!!!
Soon, the creatures that Zheng-Fu sensed arrived beneath his feet. One of them then pushed its arms up from the ground beneath Zheng-Fu's feet to grab his legs.
But all it could catch was air. Because Zheng-Fu already knew that it would attack him, he jumped and dodged to the side. He did not jump upwards because he knew that another one was hidden above his head.
Not bad!
"These demon monsters' bodies have earth element energy. If I sell them, I'll probably get a good price. Or I can keep them and use them as materials to create tactical formations!" Zheng-Fu's eyes suddenly lit up. Because those two demon monsters were very rare. Normally, demon monsters that had elements in their bodies only had one in a thousand or one in ten thousand. Therefore, Zheng-Fu looked at them with longing eyes and a mischievous smile on his lips.
Awe!!!
At that moment, the two demon monsters suddenly felt chills and shivers down their spines that they could not explain why. But they felt that way from the moment they looked into Zheng-Fu's eyes.
Gahhhh! Gahhhh!
But they received orders from their master to capture Zheng-Fu. They, therefore, shook off their fear and charged at Zheng-Fu again.
"You're top-notch materials, so I have to make sure that you die as intact as possible. Then, I'd better use this attack!"
Flap! Flap! Flap!
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
As soon as Zheng-Fu finished speaking, he summoned the flying saber he had just received as his new regular weapon. It was easy and convenient to use, so he chose to use it to kill those two demon monsters.
Kill them!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Slash! Augh!!!
Slash! Augh!!!
In the blink of an eye, that flying saber pierced the necks of the two demon monsters with extreme speed and precision. So, Zheng-Fu could kill two advanced Genuine Deity Stage demon monsters in just one attack without breaking a sweat. Moreover, that attack also caused the two demon monsters' corpses to remain in perfect condition.
Whooooooosh!
[Test 1/10; Collect the souls of 2/1,000,000 evil demons]
Hah!?
Suddenly, a message telling Zheng-Fu how to pass the first test appeared again. But this time, something had changed. The fact that he killed two demon monsters caused the number '0/1,000,000' to become '2/1,000,000', which corresponded to the number he killed.
"Is killing a demon monster also a test result? So why didn't anything happen when I absorbed the energy from that giant demon monster? Or does it count only for killing work?" Zheng-Fu was stunned when he saw that killing demon monsters could increase the mission score of the test. At first, he thought that his targets must have only been those from the Demon Race.
"Then… Smirk!"
Thinking of that, Zheng-Fu grinned happily. Since killing demon monsters can be used to count the number of missions. And that place was full of demon monsters. Thus, he would definitely not let that golden opportunity pass by.
However, Protector Terra suddenly realized that the underlings he had sent out had all been killed so quickly.
"How is that possible? Or is that human at Deity Monarch Stage?!"
"What happened? Or have your subordinates already been dealt with?" Protector Ventus immediately sneered upon hearing Protector Terra's exclamation.
"Yes, my subordinates have already been killed. It seems that the human is a Deity Monarch Stage cultivator who might be at the third level or higher. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to deal with those two demon monsters at the advanced Genuine Deity Stage so quickly!" Protector Terra replied honestly and without any anger. He was only interested in the person who entered the tomb at that time, who was unexpectedly strong. Because the hunters who had come before were no higher than the advanced Genuine Deity Stage cultivators.
Umm!
"So, did that human go back or still walk in here?" Protector Ignis asked with a serious expression. He wanted to know so that he could assess the situation.
"He's still heading here. Maybe it's because I sent only two subordinates, so he thinks that this place isn't scary and proceeds to come inside. That may be good for us. This time we'll have to send out more subordinates!" Protector Terra replied. He and Protector Ignis were close comrades. The two spoke to each other in a friendly manner and without sarcasm.
"Then I'll send some of my subordinates along with yours. If they attack together, they might be able to capture that human easily!" Protector Ignis nodded before proposing a plan. He believed that by working together, it would be possible for them to defeat that human.
That's good too!
"You guys don't have to worry. Because my subordinates will take care of that human!" But Protector Ventus suddenly interjected proudly. Because he had already sent out dozens of his underlings. Each one had the strength of the initial Deity Monarch Stage. Moreover, most of them were wind-element demon monsters with excellent speed.
Huh!
So far, only Protector Aqua had not offered any opinions. But his expression looked like he was thinking about something but did not say it.
Coming back to Zheng-Fu again...
After defeating the two earth-element demon monsters, he put their bodies into storage and happily moved on. His mind was focused on whether there would be more demon monsters coming. Even if they were not element monsters, he would still be pleased to hunt them down. He only wanted to hunt a large number of them.
Not long after walking deeper into the tomb, he encountered dozens of flying demon monsters. Their appearance clearly resembled that of bats. Only, their fangs and claws were longer, and their wings were ten times larger. Because their bodies were about the size of a five to six-year-old child.
Gahhhh!!! Gahhhh!!! Gahhhh!!!
Huh!
"Have you come yet? Then let's play together!"
Go kill them!!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
