Chapter 347 – Crisis (1/2)

After the demon general changed into its original starfish form, the body squirted out a colorful bubble after another. Each bubble clearly reflected a part of the situation in the Demonstar Castle.

Pop. One of the bubbles suddenly burst, forming a picture in the air: A despicable-looking, human Fatty was lurking beside a pillar.

”Which area is this?” Bikari asked, overjoyed.

His answer was a slight gust of wind. A blade swiftly poked out from the side. Had it not been for Bikari's quick reaction, it could have wiped out over half of his HP.

”There you are.” Bikari wasn’t afraid and instead even rejoiced. With a roar, he pounced towards Fatty.

After the unsuccessful strike, Fatty quickly pulled back. Bikari alone was enough to match him. There were still two Demon Generals here, this was no place to remain for any length of time.

With Earthwalk, Fatty vanished. Fierce Bull, who was also leaping at Fatty, only grasped air. He looked at Demonstar. Demonstar spat out more than a dozen colorful bubbles, one of them reflected Fatty’s figure.

”Give chase!” Fierce Bull and Bikari rushed out of the grand hall. Demonstar didn’t follow, but bubbles from time to time floated out from his body, keeping track of all happenings within the Demonstar Castle.

Popping out from the ground, Fatty immediately went into Stealth. He knew it was impossible to hide around with Demonstar's skill searching for his trail and decided to leave this old castle as soon as possible.

As soon as Fatty took a step, Fierce Bull stampeded over. The bull’s power was far too much higher than Fatty, he only needed a glance to find the Stealthing human.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. Fatty Earthwalked five times in a row directly out of Demonstar castle and found himself in a flatland. The ground was black, and the trees also presented as a strange gray.

”Since you’ve come, might as well stay!” Fierce Bull was hot on his heels. Fatty’s brows wrinkled, the bull fellow was so strong that it was impossible to beat him or lose him. This spelled trouble.

As Fatty ran like the wind, three figures suddenly appeared and split in three directions. Fierce Bull coldly smiled. He stretched out his hand, sending out two long-range attacks that wiped out the two illusions, then leisurely followed the real Fatty.

Behind Fierce Bull was Bikari. Although his speed wasn’t as fast as the bull, it was still faster than that of Fatty and he was gradually catching up. Demonstar had changed back into his human form to give chase. The Elemental Sword Diagram and Elemental Skill Book were all superb equipment. The three demons all strived to acquire them to be offerings for their boss and thereby render a great contribution.

”Kid, leave the Elemental Diagram and Skill Book, and I’ll spare your life!” Bikari shrieked.

”Doesn’t matter. Even if you kill me, you still can't get them,” Fatty turned around and said.

”You look down on us too much,” Bikari sneered.

Fatty was secretly shocked. There’s a way to make undroppable exclusive equipment drop?

Fatty chose a random direction to run, but Fierce Bull soon caught up. With a roar, the bull punched with murderous intent.

Bam! Fatty spat out a mouthful of blood. Like a cut kite, his body was blown into the distance. Just now, if he hadn't dodged so fast that he was only grazed a little, it wouldn't have been a matter of spitting blood, but insta-death instead.

”Don't kill him, let me!” cried Bikari who took out a round ring of sorts.

In order to acquire the two pieces of equipment, Bikari was well prepared. This ring-like object, named Expropriation, could release a blood-light screen that when enveloping a target, would increase the drop rate of all equipment, whether normal or non-dropping, by 10% when the target died.

”Get in, little brat!” Bikari threw Expropriation into the sky, and a layer of bloody light shrouded Fatty.

Demonstar had also caught up. Seeing there was an advantage to take, he shot out a tentacle to kill Fatty.

”F*ck, you really think Lord Fatty is easy to bully?!” Fatty raged. He suddenly threw out something.

It was a diagram of a small magical array that would be activated once tossed out, a life-saving object specially made for Fatty by Space Saint Magus Lucas. The array could instantly break through space and direct transmit him to Sky City and was impossible to stop unless the opponent possessed a spatial imprisonment skill or tool.

Boom! A white light shot straight into the sky. A hexagonal magical array quickly formed at Fatty’s feet, and then in a flash of light, Fatty disappeared right before the eyes of the three demons.

”Damn it! My Expropriation!” Bikari’s heart throbbed painfully.

Whoosh!

A white light flashed in Sky City and Fatty appeared on the Holy Spirit Island. A ding rang out as a ring object fell at his feet.

”This thing got brought back too.” Fatty picked it up in delight.

Expropriation: Increase the drop rate of the enveloped victim’s equipment by 10%, ignore all binding of undroppable equipment.

”There’s actually such a good thing?!” Fatty was elated. In the future, when he found anyone unpleasing to the eye, he would just use this to strip them bare.

”Huh? You used the teleportation array to escape? Just what kind of monster did you encounter?” Reck who was just passing the area asked curiously.

”Several demons.” Fatty then briefed Reck about what had happened.

”Hero City? That’s one of our most famous main cities. So it’s actually in Heavens Scar and even been occupied by the Demon race for several thousand years.” Reck was shocked after hearing about the situation.
