Chapter 455 Devour
Jonathan and Torrence didn''t hesitate, both jumping straight in.
They didn''t think too much about the endless perils and unknowns awaiting them in Demon Pce.
In fact, they knew Skr might''ve evolved again and was bound to be even more dangerous this time.
Still, neither of them backed down or appeared fearful.
The future was fraught with hazards anyway, and the two had experienced countless life-and-death
struggles in their lives, so why would they be afraid of that puppet primordial spirit?
Jonathan and Torrence sped toward Dragon Pce.
Soon, they arrived.
As soon as they stepped into Dragon Pce, they saw Skr.
Skr had his back to the duo, standing rooted to his spot and unmoving. Jonathan and Torrence
exchanged nces, both sensing something was amiss. What was even stranger was that Jonathan
noticed all the Golden Knights'' corpses on the ground were all shriveled like mummies.
Their blood and essence were wholly drained, with not a trace left. The scene was more terrifying than
when Jonathan had sucked people''s blood dry previously.
Jonathan and Torrence felt chills traveling down their spines. What exactly happened here?
Right then, Skr turned around.
When Jonathan and Torrence saw Skr, their hearts clenched, and colors drained from their faces.
F*ck! Jonathan almost eximed out loud. What the hell is wrong with him?
Skr''s countenance was a bloody mess as if it had been corroded.
His facial features were no longer distinguishable, and his hand had turned into monster-like ws.
Worse yet, Skr''s body emitted an indescribable stench like the smell of a piece of meat that had
been sunned to rot. That was not all. His face and hands were also covered in oozing pus.
Torrence sneered. “The glorious Theos, who value benevolence andpassion, has actually sucked
up all the blood and essence of her subordinates, turning him into this monstrous appearance. This is
truly a great irony andical joke.”
“No one will ever know what happened here today.” Skr suddenly spoke. However, his voice didn''t
come from his mouth. Instead, the sound seemed to reverberate within Jonathan''s and Torrence''s
minds. Moreover, the voice didn''t belong to Skr but a woman''s. Her voice was pleasant yet
authoritative, making others wonder how beautiful the speaker was.
The duo''s pupils contracted. They didn''t have the time and attention to spare to analyze how melodious
the woman''s voice was or how gorgeous she might be.
Theos'' intention was clear as day. She was determined to ughter Jonathan and Torrence that day.
Since she hadmitted such a heinous act and had been witnessed by the duo, she would never
allow them to live.
Jonathanughed and said, “Do you think you''re capable of killing Torrence and me with that
monstrous body?”
Skr replied calmly, “I forged this body by absorbing those Golden Knights'' blood and essence, and
it''s evolving toward the perfect state. You won''t be able to harm it even with your fists or weapons. The
only thing you can do is wait for your inevitable death!”
Jonathan scoffed, “You''re full of hot air. There are many people in this world who want to kill me, but I''m
still alive and well to this day.”
Skr uttered coldly, “How dare youpare others with me?”
“Why can''t I? Do you really think you''re a god?” Jonathanughed mockingly.
He continued to provoke Skr, but he didn''t dare to let his guard down.
Torrence also cautiously kept watch.
“You''re courting death!” Skr flew into a rage.
Then, he made his move.
No longer wielding a sword, he moved swiftly like lightning, lunging forward like a monster and shing
his w at Jonathan''s head.
Jonathan instantly felt as if he was battling a ferocious ancient beast. F*ck!
A foul-smelling gust of wind buffeted against Jonathan.
Skr''s speed was too fast for Jonathan to the extent of overwhelming him, and all he could do was
brace himself.
Jonathan immediately channeled his Force and unleashed Rolling Thunder Punch.
Bang!
Jonathan''s and Skr''s fists collided. At that instant, Jonathan felt an indescribable and overpowering
force mming into him from his opponent''s punch.
The force carried an invincible will, nullifying Jonathan''s punch effortlessly.
Jonathan could no longer hold out and was sent flying backward.
He was thrown three meters away andnded heavily on the floor with a thud.
Vitality churned within him, and stars danced in his eyes. He tasted something metallic before spewing
a mouthful of blood the next second.
Torrence turned pale and immediately thrust his sword at Skr''s neck. Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
Skr reached out to grasp Torrence''s Hallowed Sword with his w in a sh and caught hold of the
de.
Torrence nned to cut off Skr''s w by gyrating his Force but soon realized his Hallowed Sword
wouldn''t budge no matter how much Force he exerted.
Wearing a poker face, Skr abruptly shook his head, and instantly, a spiraling electric current surged
forth.
Torrence could no longer maintain his grip on Hallowed Sword, and the weapon was snatched by
Skr.
What happened next left Torrence even more dumbfounded because he saw Skr bring Hallowed
Sword toward his mouth.
Skr''s mouth was no longer discernible, but at that moment, he suddenly opened his bloody maw,
ced the sword inside, and began chewing on it viciously.
Hallowed Sword was consumed by Skr in a few bites.
He chewed loudly, seemingly savoring the taste of the sword.
Upon witnessing the scene, Jonathan turned ashen-faced and was suddenly reminded of Wretched.
Why is Skr''s body bing like Wretched''s? He can undergo evolution and devour things.
Jonathan didn''t have the time to think further. He knew he and Torrence were truly in a pickle. Damn it.
It feels like we traveled so far and endured all the sleepless nights to rush over here just to meet our
doom.
Jonathan tried to move, but unbearable pain spread across his body as soon as he did that, and he
puked out another mouthful of blood.
Jonathan''s face turned as white as chalk as he finally fathomed how severe his injuries were.
“Torrence, hurry up and escape. Just leave me be.” He gritted his teeth in agony and shed a wry
smile. “It seems that I''ll be meeting my end here today.”
A determined look shed across Torrence''s eyes when he took in Jonathan''s state. He disregarded
Jonathan''s words and turned to speak to Skr. “Theos, as long as you''re willing to let Jonathan go, I''ll
return to Supreme Sect and ept any punishments that await.”
Before Skr could respond, Jonathan said, “Are you out of your mind, Torrence? She''ll never let you
return to Supreme Sect now that you''ve witnessed the wicked things she''s done. She won''t let us off
the hook today. Why did you waste your time pleading with her? I don''t think you can escape either
now.”
Torrence''s gaze darkened.
Skr nced at Jonathan and said, “You have a good grasp on the current circumstances.”
Jonathan chuckled. “Come on. If you''re going to kill me, make it quick. s! What a pity. I heard from
Torrence you''re a gorgeous woman. It''s such a regret for me to die just like that without ever having
seen the appearance of a ruthless andpetent beauty like you.”
“How dare a lowly person like you bear sphemous thoughts against me?” A cold glint flitted across
Skr''s face.
Jonathan replied, “Oh? sphemous thoughts? How can you say that? No matter how formidable you
are, you''re still a woman. Women are meant to be loved by men and bear children for men. Otherwise,
you won''t fulfill your destiny as a woman.”
“You''re seeking death!” Skr was enraged.
“I reckon you certainly don''t know what it feels like to be with a man, right?” Jonathan chuckled. “Come
to think of it, you''re actually quite pitiful too, living a solitary life. Although you''re Theos, every man in
this world fears you. No one can love you like how an ordinary man cherishes their woman.”
“F*ck!” Jonathan suddenly cursed and bellowed at Torrence. “Torrence, are you a dimwit? I''m
desperately buying time for you, so why aren''t you fleeing?”
Needless to say, Torrence fathomed Jonathan''s good intentions as they had a tacit understanding
between them.
However, at that moment, Torrence gave a bitter smile and said, “Jonathan, although we haven''t known
each other for long, I''ve already regarded you as my only brother. I''d rather die than abandon my
brother.” With that, he turned to Skr. “Theos, we''re not your match, so just kill us if you want.”
Skr naturally wouldn''t show mercy.
He nced at Torrence but strode toward Jonathan.
Jonathan couldn''t run away even if he wanted to.
He could only watch as Skr approached and killed him.
Am I truly going to meet my demise? Will there be a miracle? Will there be?
He undoubtedly hoped for a miracle. After all, he was the Chosen One and didn''t wish to die yet. He
still had too many attachments and unfulfilled regrets in the world.
At that final moment, Jonathan roared, “F*ck! King of Dragon, Holy Dragon, show yourselves! This
person in front of me is Theos, your greatest enemy!”
Skr sneered. He came to a halt before Jonathan and uttered, “Even if you scream your lungs out, no
one will save you. This forbidden ice seal isn''t magic, but the work of an expert from another dimension
who broke through the barriers of space to seal off these dragons. With the ability of these dragons,
they will never be able to escape.”
Jonathan didn''t have much hope actually, but he felt awkward listening to Skr''s remark about how no
one would save him even if he shouted his lungs out. Why do I feel like a girl who''s being ravaged
against my will?
At that moment, Skr didn''t n on wasting his breath talking to Jonathan anymore.
When he was about to kill Jonathan, Torrence suddenly moved forward, lunging at Skr to give him a
bear hug.
After all, Torrence wasn''t injured.
He was perfectly unscathed, so he didn''t feel it appropriate to stand idly by and watch as Skr
ughtered Jonathan. If Skr had killed me first, I would''ve epted it as my fate. That''s the thing.
Skr is not killing us in the correct order!
While Torrence pounced on Skr, Skr swung his hand in response.
