Chapter 248: Devil me Sword!
Yue Zhong nced at the four Mutant Vicious Apes that had appeared and said lightly to the three girls,
“I’ll leave these four monsters to you!”
Mutant Beasts like these Mutant Vicious Apes were only at Level 33. For Yue Zhong to rise up by one level, he would have to kill at least a few dozen of them. Currently, Ji Qingwu was only a Level 27 Evolver, so killing just one of them would let her directly rise in level.
Upon hearing Yue Zhong’s words, Ji Qingwu activated her Cutting Edge Enhancement Skill and a faint cyan radiance enveloped the Replica Tang Sword in her hands. Under the effects of the Cutting Edge Enhancement Skill, the Replica Tang Sword in her hands would be even sharper than Yue Zhong’s Dark Magic Sword.
Her figure shed and she directly rushed towards a Mutant Vicious Ape like a storm of ded wind.
The targeted Mutant Vicious Ape’s eyes shed with an ominous glint as one of its fists swung out and bombarded Ji Qingwu with with power enough to create a piercing wind sound. This particr Mutant Beast had extraordinary strength and considerable agility. Assuming this punch hit its target, then even a boxing champion from the previous world would have their head directly blown into bloody off-sized bits!
Using exquisite footwork, Ji Qingwu’s response was to turn her delicate body slightly to the side allowing her to dodge the Mutant Vicious Ape’s attack by a hair’s breadth. In doing so, she also shed at the beast’s head, easily beheading it and causing fresh blood to stter into the air, covering her entire body.
Seeing Ji Qingwu finish off this Mutant Vicious Ape so easily, apetitive spirit arose in Zhuo Yatong, who was standing at the side. She activated her Explosive Strength Skill and together with her innate talent, her strength surmounted that of twelve peoplebined.
She picked up a God and Devil System Level 3 Treasure ‘Wolf Tooth Staff’, which was 2m in length and weighed 300kg, using it brutally to smash at the Mutant Vicious Ape.
That Mutant Vicious Ape was directly smashed into severalrgish chunks of flesh and blood by Zhuo Yatong’s terrifying strength, as well as the immense inertia from her 300kg heavy Wolf Tooth Staff. It fell onto the ground, dead, and a huge orb of experience let Zhuo Yatong directly rise up in level.
Facing the Mutant Vicious Ape that was rushing towards her on the other side, Tong Xiaoyun activated her Telekinesis Ability. A stone suddenly rolled up to the ape’s feet, causing it to trip and fall face-first onto the ground.
With just a thought from Tong Xiaoyun, three Replica Tang Swords rapidly shot towards the Mutant Vicious Ape like arrows. With Tong Xiaoyun controlling them, two of the swords directly pierced through the ape’s eyes as if they both had intelligence, destroying the ape’s vision, while the other sword prated through the ape’s body, tearing out a shallow wound.
Tong Xiaoyun could control six Replica Tang Swords at most using her Telekinesis Ability, but the greater the number of swords she had to control, the less the amount of power each sword had in them. She normally liked to control three Replica Tang Swords at once when confronting enemies, which let her easily ughter zombies.
With both of its eyes blinded, the Mutant Vicious Ape struggled painfully on the ground. The three Replica Tang Swords controlled by Tong Xiaoyun constantly flew towards the ape, piercing through its head and creating countless small wounds, causing the ape to constantly bleed. After 3 minutes of this ‘grinding’ tactic, Tong Xiaoyun was finally able to kill the Mutant Vicious Ape.
By the time Tong Xiaoyun had killed the beast, the other Mutant Vicious Ape had already been shed to death by Ji Qingwu in one move. As Ji Qingwu constantly rose in level and gained enhancements, the advantages of her arduously-trained swordy were finally revealed. With her swordy as a foundation, she was able to dodge enemy attacks with just the slightest movement. In addition to the fact that she possessed the Cutting Edge Enhancement Skill, very few people would be able to avoid her de in closebat. When facing swordy experts like Ji Qingwu, the best way was to directly use a rocketuncher to bombard her to pieces before she drew close enough.
Out of the four Mutant Vicious Apes, only a Level 2 Skillbook [High Speed Movement] was dropped. Yue Zhong also took out the blood essences and gave them to the three girls to absorb. Currently, the blood essences of low-levelled Mutant Beasts as such were already useless to Yue Zhong.
[TN: not sure what happened to the nucleus thing, maybe lower-levelled mutant beasts only have blood essence?]
After finishing off the four Mutant Vicious Apes, Yue Zhong and his party continued to drive in the direction of therge-scale weapons arsenal.
When they came to a ce littered with the wreckages of all sorts of military vehicles, the earth shook slightly and 3m tall ck-scaled Ferocious Boars came charging towards them from the distance like small-size tanks. They stared ravenously at Yue Zhong and his party.
“16 of them!! It’s a bit less thanst time! I will go to kill them! You guys be careful!”
As Yue Zhong watched the 16 ck-scaled Ferocious Boars, a scorching heat shed past his eyes and he spoke towards the three girls. He immediately activated his Epassing Body Armor and charged towards the 16 ck-scaled Ferocious Boars, taking a Type 05 Light Submachine Gun with him.
As Ji Qingwu and the two other girls watched Yue Zhong rush towards the 16 beasts, a hint of shock shed past their eyes. Those behemoths were Level 43 Mutant Beasts and every one of them possessed boundless strength. As soon as something was charged into by the ck-scaled Ferocious Boars, even a Hummer would be knocked flying and smashed to pieces.
“Too reckless!! This bastard!”
Seeing Yue Zhong’s impulsive actions, even Ji Qingwu, a calm person who had a pure upbringing and had never sworn in her entire life, couldn’t help but let out a curse. Holding her Replica Tang Sword, she rushed towards Yue Zhong’s side.
Seeing Ji Qingwu rushing forward, Tong Xiaoyun also felt a rush of battle lust, but a hand pressed down on her body, firmly keeping her in ce.
Zhuo Yatong held Tong Xiaoyun back while looking towards Yue Zhong with aplicated expression and said,
“Don’t go over, with your current strength, even if you rush forward now, you will be a burden to him. Since he said he wanted to deal with those ck-Scaled Boars, he must have the confidence to do so. If you go up, you might not be able to do anything.”
Inparison with the hot-blooded Ji Qingwu and Tong Xiaoyun, the older Zhuo Yatong was much calmer.
Yue Zhong rushed towards the 16 Mutant ck Scaled Boars, hoisting his gun and releasing a burst of rapid fire. A concentrated line of bulletsnded on the bodies of those 16 Mutant Boars,and although it did nothing to pierce that thick armor of theirs, it caused them enough pain to shriek, before concentrating their wrath on Yue Zhong.
The 16 Mutant Boars immediately charged towards Yue Zhong in fury.
Facing the onught of those tank-like beasts, Yue Zhong kept his .05 back inside his storage ring before activating his Devil me Skill. A dense fiery energy ball blossomed in his hands,pressing itself tightly into the shape of a 2m long sword of mes.
In the span of a few breaths, Yue Zhong had arrived in front of one of the Mutant ck Scaled Boars and he shot out 2 Bone Spears from his back to propel himself up into the air. As he aimed his Devil me Sword downwards, the Mutant ck Scaled Boar had just rushed towards the de.
The Devil me Sword was the result of an expenditure of 50 Spirit and 20 Stamina to form, and to maintain its appearance, Yue Zhong had to expend 10 points of Spirit and 3 Stamina. It was a huge drain, but at the same time, it possessed immense power; even the Type 2 Mutant Water Snake’s armor could easily be split open by this Devil me Sword.
The Mutant ck-Scaled Boar had charged recklessly towards the Devil me Sword, and under the force of its own power, it was immediately sliced in two. Its wounds were instantly cauterized, sizzling with a burnt smell.
TN: Ahh fresh meat.
After disposing of one of the Mutant ck-Scaled Boars in one strike, the Bone Spear behind Yue Zhong extended, sending him onto the head of another ck Scaled Boar, where he immediately stuck the sword into its head, prating its skull and incinerating its brain instantly.
After bing an Evolver, Yue Zhong’s strength underwent an earthshaking change. If he was taking on these Mutant ck-Scaled Boars as he was before the Evolution, he would have never been able to condense the Devil me Sword with his power and exhibit such fearsome strength.
Right after he killed that Mutant ck-Scaled Boar, Yue Zhong jumped down from its body and activated his Shadow Steps. He stepped to the right like a spectre, evading an attack from yet another ck Scaled Boar by a hair’s breadth, whilst at the same time swinging the Devil me Sword in front of the Boar.
The Mutant ck Scaled Boar could not stop due to the energy from its own frenzied charge and it sent itself into Yue Zhong’s Devil me Sword, instantly being sliced in 2, while its innards and blood sprayed out, sttering onto Yue Zhong.
“Congrattions on reaching Level 41! You have gained 2 enhancement points.”
Just as the 3rd Mutant ck Scaled Boar fell lifelessly, the sweet sound of notification resounded in his ears.
Yue Zhong was, after all, a Spirit and Endurance Dual Attribute Evolver. Each time he leveled up, he would gain a fixed enhancement point in Spirit as well as Endurance, and on top of that, he had another 2 enhancement points to be distributed ording to his own wishes.
Yue Zhong swiftly allocated those points to his Agility, as it was extremely crucial on the battlefield. He had not learnt any de or spear techniques before, and if he were to meet an opponent well-versed in martial arts, he could only rely on his extremely high Agility and all sorts of other skills to suppress the enemy. Other than that, the benefits of having high Agility was the ability to perceive danger and act faster; if he had low Agility, even if he could sense the danger but was not able to react in time, it would still be all for naught.
After Yue Zhong had allocated his enhancement points, his body slightly shifted as he swung down onto another Mutant ck Scaled Boar, immediately opening arge wound in its head, frying the brain matter instantly.
When he disposed of this ck-Scaled Boar, he started weaving in and out amongst the Mutant ck-Scaled Boars, the Devil me Sword in his hands constantly dancing and shing as the Mutant Boars fell one by one.
“So formidable!!”
Ji Qingwu’s steps came to a halt as she watched Yue Zhong dance with his Devil me Sword amongst the herd of Mutant ck Scaled Boars. Her eyes shed with shock. Even dealing with a single one of these beasts would take a toll on her- never did she imagine that Yue Zhong could actually take care of them as though he was ughtering chickens, with the same as that of killing normal zombies.
After killing another 7 of the ck-Scaled Boars, the remaining behemoths finally felt a little fear amidst their fury, as they turned tail and escaped.
