Chapter 1225: Fatal Embrace

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

A series of question marks danced on Meng Chao’s cerebral cortex.

He did not have time to think about the illogical oddity, though, because the situation had already taken a hundred and eighty degree turn.

At first, neither Platinum Embrace nor Teeth of Corrosion had expected a large number of wolf assassins to lurk around them.

However, Platinum Embrace’s elder brother, the Horn of Destruction, had been the first noble to discover and support Kanus, the Jackal.

Kanus, the Jackal had always considered himself the most loyal lackey under the Horn of Destruction.

Between the Lion and Tiger Clans, he naturally leaned toward the former.

After the wolf assassins rose up, they pounced on the fierce tiger warriors and killed them until their flesh and blood splattered everywhere. It was obvious that they were on the Lion Clan’s side.

Platinum Embrace began to think quickly. His reaction speed was half a beat faster than Teeth of Corrosion’s.

He roared and whipped his long hair. Eight light blades that resembled eight burning snakes were aimed at Teeth of Corrosion’s four limbs, glabella, heart, abdomen, and crotch.

If the two of them were to fight one-on-one…

They would definitely not use such a fatal move that had a huge flaw.

Even if they were to use it, their opponent would have dozens of ways to dodge or even counterattack.

Even if they could not dodge, just the defensive power of their totem armor alone would be enough to cancel out most of the light blade’s destructive power.

At most, they could cut seven or eight deep wounds through the totem armor to reveal the person’s bones. They would not cause fatal damage to the flesh and blood.

In any case, the totem armor was made of a combination of hardness and softness. It was made of an unpredictable liquid metal-like material. As long as the material did not lose its vitality and swallowed enough resources, no matter how big the wound was, it would be able to heal in a few seconds. It would take a few minutes at most to heal perfectly.

The problem was that the surprise wolf assassin had entangled Teeth of Corrosion’s hands and feet, distracting him as a result.

The holy water that originated from the land of Holy Light was more like a thick, shining sulfuric acid, constantly eroding and decomposing the surface of his totem armor.

Accompanied by a series of ear-piercing “chi chi” sounds, soon, his shiny armor was turned into pieces of scrap metal that were riddled with holes.

It was originally a move that Teeth of Corrosion would use.

He did not expect that someone would use it on him instead.

The strong scent of a wolf rushed into his nostrils. He realized that the situation was far beyond his control.

It was very likely that he and all the fierce tiger warriors would fall into a carefully planned and extremely dangerous trap.

It had become an impossible mission to hunt down Platinum Embrace.

The most important thing now was to save his own life!

Teeth of Corrosion’s pupils contracted to its limit.

The joints of his legs released a series of crackling sounds, and the muscle fibers around his joints almost doubled in size in an instant.

Even the liquid metal-like substances that formed his totem armor kept surging toward his legs, immediately making them as thick as rocket propellers.

Teeth of Corrosion was just about to jump out of the encirclement without another care when Platinum Embrace’s eight light blades arrived before him.

Together with the Wolf Clan assassin, they had covered all three hundred and sixty degrees of angles around him and blocked all escape routes.

Platinum Embrace’s battle intent was akin to a volcanic eruption amongst the murderous intent that exuded from the several hundred Wolf Clan assassins’ scarlet eyes. It simply gave Teeth of Corrosion the illusion of having his heart pierced by tens of thousands of arrows.

This ruthless man, who was infamous throughout the entire Gold Clan, made the most correct judgment within 0.01 seconds.

Instead of retreating, he advanced and charged at Platinum Embrace while he faced the eight light blades.

He tried to entangle himself with Platinum Embrace so that the situation would become completely chaotic. Only by using Platinum Embrace as his meat shield would he have a chance to kill his way out of the encirclement.

Among the hundreds of changes that Teeth of Corrosion had deduced in an instant, this was the only way to survive.

Unfortunately, he had underestimated a few things.

First, he had underestimated the Wolf Clan assassins’ combat strength and the degree of their coordination.

Second, he had underestimated the density of the holy water that the Wolf Clan assassin had splashed on him and the speed at which it was destroying his totem armor.

Third, he had underestimated Platinum Embrace’s hidden strength.

Lastly, and most importantly, he had forgotten that there was an extremely sharp spear stuck in Platinum Embrace’s chest from the back to the front!

Clang! Clang clang clang!

The heavy weapons that the wolf assassins waved struck Teeth of Corrosion’s back.

Without the purple fog’s interference and the totem armor’s buffer, the heavy weapons’ destruction surged into Teeth of Corrosion’s body. It made the fierce tiger warrior’s neck even thicker than it had been a moment ago as a large amount of blood got stuck in his throat.
