Chapter 554 - The Top Prodigies’ Plot (1/2)

Qin Feng realized something when he witnessed this sudden turn of events.

That person was violently shoved forward with enough force that they would cough out a mouthful of blood. Even if they tried to escape, it was already too late. They were being dragged in by a strange attracting force around the Sacred Armor.

The Sacred Armor then turned into a silver liquid and wrapped itself around this person’s body.

Soon their body began to glow with the Sacred Armor’s light.

“Aaaieee!”

The person started to wail as if they were experiencing excruciating pain.

Qin Feng naturally knew why that was happening!

He felt pain when he put on the Sacred Gauntlets before, it was due to the energy perfusing* into his body. No matter how talented a prodigy was, the body’s cells would still have their limits.

It was like pouring water into a balloon, but the result of the continuous pouring would only end with an explosion.

Sure enough, the prodigy trapped by the armor only remained alive for five more seconds before exploding!

A bloody mist appeared around the Sacred Armor before it was dissolved by the energy surrounding them. Armor and spatial rune equipment that used to belong to the prodigy flew out before they were added to the circle of loot that spiraled around the Sacred Armor.

The other prodigies gasped out loud.

They did not expect something like that to happen.

The Sacred Armor was too powerful.

Qin Feng believed that once something like that happened, none of the other prodigies would even dare try to approach the armor. It would soon become clear to him that he had underestimated them.

That or perhaps it was the prodigies who were the ones underestimating.

“Go, my thralls! Drain the Sacred Armor of its energy and when it runs out it will be mine!”

Once the command rang out, a person with glassy eyes and a dazed look immediately launched themselves toward the Sacred Armor.

Qin Feng turned his head to the direction of the command.

It was a Wraith Devil, a C4-tier.

“Khui!”

That was the Wraith Devil’s name.

There were about three hundred people gathered around him. These people might have been normal before but their eyes were now entirely pitch black. It was obvious that they were all possessed by the Wraith Devil.

Of course, this kind of possession was different from the Wraith Devil that Qin Feng had fought before. A high-level Wraith Devil could separate its soul and take possession of multiple bodies at once!

The act of taking control of three hundred people at once was really shocking!

Such power!

Khui sent someone forward and plunged them into the Sacred Armor. This person was not very strong but he did not feel pain. They might as well have turned into a corpse the moment they were possessed.

It took only three seconds before they exploded and turned to ash. Their equipment proceeded to join the circle of loot.

However, Khui did not continue. It only sneered and spoke through consciousness.

“So, are you all going to just watch? If only I put in all the effort and then wouldn’t it be bad if someone else comes in to scoop up my prize?”

Qin Feng frowned. He had not expected any of this to happen. It seemed like there were things he was unaware of.

At this time, another voice came.

“Then, I’ll go next!”

A being wrapped in black robes pointed its finger at another person nearby, causing their eyes to roll into the back of their head before descending toward the Sacred Armor.

Qin Feng was taken aback when he saw that this being actually had a pair of bony hands.

Not only that, they were clearly another dark ability user.

“Bonewraith Tribe!”

They were a special tribe who was well known for their proficiency in casting abilities.

The person they sent ahead only managed to last for six seconds before dying.
