Chapter 572 – Cursed Weapon (1/2)
Chapter 572 Cursed Weapon
“D*mm*t!”
Seeing his beloved general almost get cut into pieces, Luo Lei finally couldn’t hold it in any longer. He roared and raised Despair, charging towards Men Luo. Dou Qi swirled around his body. His sword flashed. Men Luo instantly knew that there was danger. He immediately turned around and retreated. Then opened his hand at Luo Lei, throwing [Dragon Flame]!
Luo Lei gritted his teeth and roared, “[Shield of the Protector]!”
“Peng!” A golden light began to rise around his feet, blocking Men Luo’s [Dragon Flame]. I couldn’t tell, but Luo Lei was actually pretty strong. He swung Despair and smiled. Dou Qi began to rise off of the blade and at that moment, ancient runes began to appear on Despair. One after another, the crimson runes swirled around the blade and a haunting song rang out.
“Come at me!”
Luo Lei’s voice boomed and he sprinted forward yelling, “Have a taste of Ba Huang City’s martial arts——[Five Essence Slash]!”
[Five Essence Slash] channeled the sword essence, creating a powerful slash that landed right on Men Luo’s chest plate. Men Luo’s body flew backwards and blood dripped from the corner of his mouth. Then, he suddenly turned around and ran and “Peng!” kicked off of the city wall, flying forward with terrifyingly fast maneuvers.
……
“Ahhhh….”
Forgotten Sea had lost his left arm. He leaned against his blade to stand up and shouted, “Archers, shoot him to death!”
A team of Fierce Tiger Archers all raised their bows to attack. Arrows rained down fro the sky in a volley, but they all bounced off of the Dou Qi armor around Men Luo. Even if we had funneled Dou Qi into the attack, it still wouldn’t have broken through the BOSS defense. Forgotten Sea saw this and spun around. He pointed to a cannon on the city wall and said, “Use the Demon Cannon. I will blow him away!”
One of the officers in charge was stunned, “Commander, that Demon Canon’s strength is alarming. Won’t…. Won’t it collapse this Dragon City? What if… if Dragon City gets destroyed, how are we supposed to take responsibility?”
Forgotten Sea smiled cruelly, “Cut the small talk. Dragon City can be rebuilt, but once Ba Huang City is lost, then our empire which was built upon tens of thousands of years of history will be gone. Hurry, use it!”
“Yes my lord!”
On the cannon deck, a dozen soldiers pushed over the Demon Cannon. A mage stood beside it and chanted several spells to bring forth the demon fire. “Peng!” The Demon flames became a fireball that shot from the cannon and flew straight at Men Luo.
“Oh?”
Men Luo turned around and smiled. He then opened his left hand straight at the Demon Cannon. “Peng!” it exploded and the entire city shivered. Ash and dust scattered throughout the air, obstructing everyone’s vision. It took almost a minute for all of the dust to settle. It wasn’t until then that we saw that Men Luo still stood on the city wall, with his hand still open. He then smiled, “Now why would you despise me this much? Did you think that a toy like that would be able to harm me?”
“D*mm*t….” Forgotten Sea gritted his teeth.
Men Luo opened his hand and activated [Dragon Flame]. Flames began to rise around the Demon Cannon and within seconds, the iron melted into a puddle. The Great Mage quickly began to chanting a wind spell and barely managed to escape the attack from the Dragon Flames. Looking at the melted Demon Cannon, his face turned green, “F*ck, what kind of a monster is this?”
“What do you think?”
Hearing the sound of a cruel laugh beside his ear, the Great Mage suddenly turned and saw that Men Luo stood right behind him like a Death God. He felt a pain rise from his chest and he began to scream. Men Luo’s hand had penetrated right through his body and grabbed a red beating heart. He pulled it out and burned it to crisp. The Great Mage’s body twitched and Men Luo threw it into the distance.
Before it even landed, Men Luo raised his hand and used [Grip of the Dragon] to follow it, burning down a team of Fierce Tiger soldiers along with the body. Not even a single body was left in the carnage.
……
“Your majesty….”
A soldier whose legs had been burned off crawled along the ground and screamed. Despair colored his face as he screeched, “Your majesty, how are we supposed to deal with this kind of a monster? Who will give us the courage to fight?”
Luo Lei’s face was green. He walked forward and softly said, “All I can give you is an end to your pain, rest well!”
Despair flashed out and the soldier’s head rolled away. Luo Lei was trembling. After Despair had a taste of blood, it began to create a “Sss” sound, as if it was burning. It was almost as though the blade was getting excited after having a taste of human blood. Luo Lei was the same. His face now had a faint expression of blood lust. His eyes seemed to look muddled for a second, and then suddenly clear again. He grinned cruelly, “Men Luo, you were originally one of the most honored and respected of the Dragon Tribe, and yet today, you are here to invade my empire and kill my generals. Today, no matter what, I will kill you here at whatever the cost!”
Men Luo raised his sword and coldly said, “Come you old geezer. If you have the ability to back your words that is!”
“Pa!”
Luo Lei disappeared from where he was and suddenly reappeared in the air above Men Luo. Despair was parried by the enemy’s long sword. “Keng!” they clashed and an enormous shockwave spread out from the impact of the two forces. Following after, Luo Lei increased the pressure and forced Men Luo straight down into the wall. Dust scattered into the air again.
“Sha sha….”
Men Luo stood up and wiped away some of the blood from his mouth. He began to reveal his true Black Dragon nature. He leapt up and dealt seven attacks, throwing Luo Lei in to the air. Then, he opened his hand and activated [Dragon Flame]+[Grip of the Holy Dragon]. Luo Lei roared in pain and half of his arm was burned black. But he continued to swing his Despair!
“Ka Cha….”
A bloody mark appeared on Men Luo’s chest. The armor had been split in half. Luo Lei threw a punch forward, pushing this Demon Commander backwards.
“Ge ge ge….”
Huffing for air, Luo Lin stood in the sky. He then pointed Despair straight to the ground. At that moment, a red energy began to accumulate in the sword. Then, Luo Lei’s injuries seemed to completely heal right in front of us. It seemed as though that energy was increasing his recovery.
……
“This….” Qing Qian’s small mouth quivered, “Just what kind of a skill is that?”
