Night paused, then asked, "You saw Captain Tang?"
"Hmm." Lin Nai turned to stare out the window: "In that darkness, there are many, many strange purple monsters. Captain Tang is being chased by many monsters and is in a very dangerous situation."
After a moment of silence, Ye Wan'er said, "...But the note Meng Feifei gave us just now told us not to leave the room tonight."
“Well, there’s nothing we can do. We can’t just stand by and watch someone die.” Lin Nai grinned. “I’m the kind of person who would never let any of my companions die in front of me.”
“...That’s true.” Ye Wan’er paused for a moment, then said, “Then I’ll go with you.”
"Hmm." Lin Nai didn't mince words and took out the two pills that Meng Feifei had given her from her pocket.
Take one of the pills.
I don't know how long the effects of this pill will last.
Lin Nai held out another one to Ye Wan'er. The girl shook her head: "I don't need it. I am a demon, and the demonic energy outside has no effect on me."
"Okay." Lin Nai put the other one away for later use. "Then, let's go."
The girl nodded: "Mm!"
"......"
"Whoosh—!"
"Whoosh—!"
Two dark figures darted out of the hotel room window and quickly disappeared into the night.
......
In the darkness.
Tang Hongshan darted and jumped between the buildings.
But the faster he ran, the more and more dark creatures gathered behind him.
Some of these dark creatures ran on all fours like wild beasts; others crawled and writhed on the ground like putrid mud, but their speed was astonishing; still others floated in the air like vengeful spirits, moving even faster than the mud and the wild beasts...
"Tch...looks like the mission is going to be unfinished..."
As Tang Hongshan ran, he cursed under his breath, "This godforsaken place stinks! I can't even see where the road is..."
"clatter!"
Tang Hongshan stepped into a pool of sticky, bloody puddle.
The disgusting, sticky substance stuck to the soles of his boots, preventing him from pulling his feet out several times.
"Damn it..." Tang Hongshan gritted his teeth.
The dark creatures behind them had all caught up. A vengeful spirit with red eyes all over its body, floating in the air like a ferocious beast, hissed and pounced on Tang Hongshan.
Tang Hongshan turned his head and quickly drew his straight knife.
"Martial Skill - Starlight Flash!"
With a swift stroke, he cleaved the multi-eyed floating monster in two!
But at this moment, other dark creatures also surrounded him, completely encircling him.
Tang Hongshan finally pulled his shoes out of the filth, staggered back two steps, and before he could regain his footing, a tall humanoid figure wielding a long sword suddenly appeared and swiftly swung his sword!
Tang Hongshan's pupils contracted, and he quickly raised his straight sword. A clang rang out, sparks flying. The black straight sword rubbed against Tang Hongshan's sword for a few seconds before separating, then thrusting and slashing towards his chest!
"bite!"
"bite!"
Two crisp sounds.
Tang Hongshan retreated repeatedly.
He saw clearly the humanoid creature wielding a long sword. At first glance, it looked like a tall warrior, but its face was clearly not human. Its eyes, nose, and ears were sharp, its eyes were bloodshot, and its mouth was full of fangs, making it look extremely ferocious.
Tang Hongshan narrowed his eyes: "Is it a dark monster born from my own heart...? How ugly it is."
The dark creatures around them slowly gathered together.
Tang Hongshan gradually began to feel dizzy, and it seemed as if someone's voice was whispering in his head.
It seems the medication's effects are starting to wear off...
The demonic energy is starting to erode my consciousness...
Tang Hongshan forced a weak laugh: "It seems the mission is definitely not going to be completed. But that's fine too, finally I can kill to my heart's content without any restraint..."
"Looks like I'm going to have a really cool day today. It's just a shame there's not a single spectator in this godforsaken place, only you monsters. No human can see my heroic figure. What a pity."
The dark warrior in front of him stared intently at him, gripping the long sword in both hands.
Suddenly, he rushed out and swung his sword at him with a swift, air-piercing strike!
"bite!"
Tang Hongshan raised his straight sword and blocked the swift attack.
"Hehe, you're really impatient."
"So...dance, youth!"
"Let me show you my coolest move!"
Linna and Ye Wan'er, looking down from their vantage point: "..."
Linnaeus: "What is he saying?"
Night shook her head: "I don't know."
"when!"
Tang Hongshan deflected the Dark Warrior's longsword with a single strike, then leaped backward, raising his straight sword horizontally in a pose that looked incredibly juvenile but was, in his eyes, the coolest. He slowly ran his index and middle fingers across the straight sword.
"Martial Skill - Overlord Dragon Dance!"
Tang Hongshan concentrated all the soul energy.
A considerable aura suddenly gathered around him.
Three years have passed, and Tang Hongshan is only at level 8 now. His limited talent has determined his upper limit.
But at this moment, a faint blue soul aura gradually condensed around him, and his level suddenly began to rise in an instant.
Level 9...
Level 10...
Level 12...
