Chapter 153
What kind of concept is it to have agility and strength of over 600, and to what extent can it be achieved?
Probably, Orion's gaze was still fixed on the scene where the black-haired boy threw the spear. The image entered his eyes through the light, and then was transmitted to the brain for processing by his eyes. But before his retina could even digest the information, the green and compelling sword light instantly appeared above the monster!
This...is not a battle that humans can interfere with!
The knife flashed down suddenly.
[You have hit the weak spot of the [Third Demon King]! ! 】
[You delivered a [Critical Hit]!] ! 】
[[The Third Demon King] HP-7300]
A huge gap appeared on the third demon king's hard skull. The orange-red flames inside kept swaying, and a strong sense of horror seemed to overflow from it.
This was the first time that a player had dealt a full seven thousand damage with just the most ordinary of sword strikes.
Just two months ago, when he first learned about the existence of the Demon King's City, he was still troubled by the Demon Snake with 5,000 HP and had to reload the game several times before he was able to resolve it.
Countless memories flashed through his mind, as if there was a layer of gauze between them. He was not an eyewitness, but a person outside the screen who relied on this body to observe the world. The huge rationality enveloped him completely, separating his inspiration from flesh and blood, his body from his perception. Once again, he fell into a state as if he knew everything and his body was integrated into the world.
[Your professional compatibility is improving]
The third demon king saw those eyes. The pair of green cat eyes were looking at it, but seemed to be looking at more than just it; there was a green jungle in his eyes, and his emotions were as calm as the wind blowing through the jungle. Points of golden light shone through the gaps between the branches; that was his slowly growing...divinity.
The next moment, the golden light suddenly turned into a raging flame that burned everything!
Blue flames burned in the jungle. The trees provide it with fuel, and the breeze helps it burn higher and higher. It spreads recklessly. It is the flame that represents desire, and it seems to be the fire of reason and judgment. The eyes, which contained deep blue flames and green forests, engulfed both reason and desire.
These are not the eyes of a just, kind, and fair god, nor are they the eyes of the six hypocrites in the sky.
The third demon king knew that he should fight back, but he seemed to be attracted by those eyes. It had nothing to do with beauty or ugliness. It was the most direct and intuitive terrifying enchantment and attraction, which tore his soul apart with a painful pulling sensation.
The sudden and huge fear seized its mind at that moment.
The third demon king began to be in a trance.
...Is this guy in front of me really just a human?
In extreme anxiety, the instinct for survival wanted to make it run away, but the inertia of the body and the remaining sanity continued to urge it to fight back. The limbs looted by the third demon king danced, and pounced on the black-haired boy who now seemed to have only strength like a hyena!
The player paid no attention to the stomach-churning limbs that moved at equally astonishing speeds.
He just calmly watched the damage caused by the sword. The excitement of killing the demon king and fighting stimulated his muscles, but his brain was isolated from his body, clearly and calmly evaluating his attack.
[[The Third Demon King] HP-7300]
Not enough, he thought.
——It’s far from enough.
[You have used the skill [Shock]]
The third demon king's movements froze instantly.
It saw more, about the complete world in the eyes of the black-haired boy, his territory, his people, his dependents, and the crown of fire that never went out on his head.
Hell...
"Baby's breath."
...Master.
The first knife has fallen, and the second knife is unsheathed!
[Strength] and [Agility] switch quickly, the accuracy of skills and loopholes in rules are utilized to the extreme. The knife in his hand is like a part of his flesh and blood, no attention or guidance is needed, the player only has the enemy in his eyes!
The knife marks overlapped in an instant.
The player's time is very slow. He draws his sword continuously, completely immersed in hunting. He pauses to reset his position and switch states. The interval between this series of operations cannot exceed even a millisecond. With his extreme concentration, he can hardly notice how time passes in the outside world.
But to the players, the slow, one-after-another sword lights seemed like grand and dazzling fireworks. When the first sword light fell and touched the head looted by the third demon king, it exploded with a loud bang!
[You have hit the weak spot of the [Third Demon King]! 】
[You delivered a [Critical Hit]!] ! 】
The third demon king could no longer tell which strike came first and which came later. It seemed as if in just a moment, countless terrifying lightning bolts fell on his body. All it could see was the flaming crown, and its brilliance dazzled it.
【Congratulations——】
Orion stared at the scene intently, not caring at all even though tears and blood were flowing from his eyes.
[You have killed the [Demon King]!] 】
"boom--"
The last knife falls!
The third demon king's body, which was condensed by special magic power, shattered and collapsed one after another. Miserable wails were heard from deep within the earth. It should be the remaining magic power of the Demon King mourning for himself, but it was of no avail. It might only last for a minute, or a second, and at the latest, they would disappear without a trace when the portal dissolved.
Orion suddenly collapsed to the ground. Although he was in an extremely cold environment, his forehead was covered with cold sweat. A sense of relief for surviving the disaster made him feel great happiness that he had not felt for a long time.
But even so, he did not forget his real savior, so he raised his head and looked up into the sky not far away.
The smoke and dust cleared, revealing the figure of a black-haired boy.
The huge force that had previously kept his body in mid-air due to the continuous attacks gradually dissipated, and he began to fall downwards under the influence of gravity.
This height is nothing for a powerful S-level hunter, especially with Su Xingyuan's terrifying jumping ability and agility - as long as he wants, he can even fly from the perspective of ordinary people - it is also very easy for him to keep his body stable in the air.
However, the black-haired boy is still missing.
It was not the case of falling down easily with the knees bent, but the body leaning back, falling continuously from a great height.
This scene does look ethereal and perfect, but judging from the fact that the black-haired boy's arm was scratched by the shell that exploded from the third demon king during his fall, I'm afraid that when he falls to the ground, what awaits Orion will be Su Xingyuan's body parts scattered all over the ground.
Orion: “…”
Orion: “???”
Wait, wouldn't it be too dramatic if an epic hunter who killed the demon king fell to his death? !
Not to mention whether he can live with his conscience or not, if people outside knew about it, they would have to kill him for Su Xingyuan!
Fortunately, no matter how bad Orion is at fighting, he is still a true S-level, and is more than capable of rescuing someone from the air. He quickly pulled himself back to his normal state, activated his body which was somehow stiff and resisted the command to approach the black-haired boy, and picked Su Xingyuan up before he fell to the ground.
Upon seeing this, Orion was horrified to find that Su Xingyuan's condition was extremely terrible.
The black-haired boy seemed to have fallen into a coma. His expression was as calm as ever, but the condition of his body was extremely horrifying. At least Orion had never seen the scene where Su Xingyuan's seven orifices were bleeding, his skin and flesh were cracked, and it seemed as if all the blood vessels in his body had exploded.
“This…what’s going on!?”
Orion did not dare to delay in using the recovery item on Su Xingyuan, but he soon found that it was useless - Su Xingyuan's body was like a bucket with a hole at the bottom. If the hole was not blocked, no matter how much water was added, it would be useless. But the problem was, he had no idea where the gap was or what caused it!
Could it be that...
Orion vaguely guessed the most likely answer.
It is almost impossible for humans to kill the Demon King, unless Su Xingyuan uses his trump card and pays a terrible price to break through the limits of humans and get a chance to kill the Demon King.
How is this not a small price to pay?
Orion's hands were almost trembling. The price was Su Xingyuan's life!
He didn't even have the mood to check whether the unconscious hunter was alive. The moment the portal appeared, he carefully carried the sleeping boy on his back and rushed out of the door at the fastest speed in his life.

At this time, the human world.
The vortex-shaped portal on the sea surface still demonstrates its deterrence. Even the helicopters hovering in the sky nearby are affected by the unknown force and crash one after another.
A full eight hours had passed since Su Xingyuan entered the portal. Panic continued to spread on the Internet. Even the Hunter Association of Country C no longer maintained superficial peace with each other and began to exert pressure on Country A, demanding that it immediately disclose the most detailed relevant information.
The savior has always been powerful and omnipotent, as if he could do everything. This is the first time in recorded history that he has stayed in the portal for so long, not to mention how dangerous this portal is...
"Don't worry, Fang Mujian." Ning Baiquan looked at the A-level hunter who was restless and walking around the office, and said calmly: "It was the original hunter's own choice to enter the portal. We have to trust him."
Fang Mujian said in disbelief: "You still have the nerve to criticize me? Why don't you unplug the phone line before you talk?"
Ning Baiquan: “…”
Ning Baiquan put down the third scrapped telephone line in his hand as if nothing had happened.
Fang Mujian turned around anxiously and said worriedly: "It was his own choice, but what happened in the portal is not so easy to predict. And didn't you analyze it--"
His voice paused and deepened: "That portal... is probably some existence in Hell, targeting Su Xingyuan!"
In this case, Su Xingyuan’s situation must be extremely dangerous!
Ning Baiquan said: "But looking around the world, can you find another hunter who can enter this special form of S-level portal and support Su Xingyuan?"
Either they are not strong enough or they have ulterior motives. Letting them in will affect Su Xingyuan's actions - not to mention the group of blessed ones who may want to murder Su Xingyuan.
Fang Mujian was speechless, then closed his eyes and sat down dejectedly on the sofa.
There had never been a moment like this when he hated his own incompetence.

Country A.
The fog was still thick. People of faith were kneeling on their knees to pray, while non-believers were enjoying their final indulgence and revelry. Related topics on social media were being refreshed at a very fast speed.
People's mood gradually changed from positive to desperate.
It was already late at night, and almost no one believed that Su Xingyuan could return safely.
Lawyer Gao closed the curtains, turned on the heating lights, asked the kitchen to prepare a table of Country C dishes, and opened a bottle of precious red wine.
Then she sat on the sofa, opened a book "Theism", and quietly waited for the return of the greatest hunter in Country C.
