Chapter 126 : Chapter 126
Notting City, Inner District.
The Lionheart Kingdom’s Class Users stationed nearby and patrolling the area looked quite excited.
“As expected of His Majesty. By holding out in Notting City, we really don’t have to fight those terrifying Fiends!”
“Exactly. And China will definitely come support us too. They understand what it means when the lips are gone and the teeth grow cold! Hahaha!!”
“When the time comes, the Fiends will retreat without us even having to lift a finger!”
“Glory to the Lionheart Kingdom!”
More than a dozen Fifth-Rank Class Users patrolled the Inner District while chatting and laughing, relaxed and in excellent spirits.
Then—BOOM!
The Purple-Flame Serpent-Spear Fire-Tipped Lance blazed like a roaring fire dragon, its light illuminating the night as one spear strike punched straight through the mansion at the city center!
Its destructive power burst outward in an instant, shaking the surrounding windows until they shattered and rained to the ground.
And along with the falling shards of glass, a head dropped to the floor as well.
“L-Lord Beast King!?”
“He’s dead!?”
“Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Hurry and protect His Majesty!”
The moment they saw Beast King’s severed head, the Lionheart Kingdom’s guards were thrown into utter panic.
In an instant, the entire guard force of Notting City mobilized in alarm, pouring out like swarms of soldier ants leaving their nest, a vast black tide.
They rushed at full speed to surround the city center.
But some of them simply fled at once...What kind of joke was this?
Even a Sixth-Rank Hunter had been killed on the spot! And they were supposed to rush in and protect the king with only their Fifth-Rank strength?
...
After killing Beast King, Ye Ze turned his gaze toward the other two Sixth-Rank Hunters of the Lionheart Kingdom.
Tong Mo and Shi Qing were handling them respectively.
But at this moment, the four people currently engaged in battle had never expected...that a mere Second Advancement could kill a Sixth-Rank Hunter so easily!
“Since when did Beast King become such trash...?”
Inside the mansion, one of the Lionheart Kingdom’s Sixth-Rank Hunters looked disdainful and furious.
He had thought Beast King would seize the opportunity to open up the situation, only to get himself killed outright...Yet in the very next moment,the Panda, Fox Immortal, and Zero all joined the battlefield together.
Martial Saint Domain, Samadhi True Fire, and the Purple-Flame Serpent-Spear Fire-Tipped Lance all manifested at once.
At this moment, Ye Ze’s most violent power gathered in an instant!
“Finish this fast!”
Ye Ze spoke, then summoned the Mantis back so it could take the kills on the two Sixth-Rank Hunters.
In that instant, blue-white and violet flames intertwined, and together with the force of Martial Saint Domain, the entire space seemed to warp.
“My God—!”
The two Sixth-Rank Hunters of the Lionheart Kingdom panicked instantly.
In the next second, under their horrified gazes, the interwoven blue-white and violet flames swallowed them whole.
The Squirrel did not stay idle either. Taking advantage of the moment, it stripped the equipment off both of them...Then the Mantis appeared from the Void and, with a flash of violet light, killed them both.
【Hunter · Super — Void Terminator killed a strong enemy. Four body parts each gained two evolutions simultaneously!】
【Killed a Sixth-Rank Class User. EXP +60,000 (+100%)!】
With those two Sixth-Rank finishing blows, the Mantis’s four-dimensional attributes increased by a total of 160 points!
At the same time, Slaughter’s Gift brought in another 60 Free Attribute Points!
The harvest was quite abundant!
Seeing this, Spear King Tong Mo and Hundred Flowers King Shi Qing looked at each other.
“Why does it feel like Ye Ze, a mere Second Advancement, is hitting harder than we Sixth-Rank Hunters are?”
For some reason, both of them felt as though the later waves of the Yangtze were driving on the earlier ones—and they were the earlier waves being knocked aside...But in the next moment, Shi Qing’s expression suddenly changed, as if she had realized something.
As Hundred Flowers King, she had a passive skill that could spread pollen into the surrounding area. Through anywhere the pollen reached, she could sense enemies...
“The Lionheart Kingdom’s defense forces are coming. There are a lot of them!”
Tong Mo’s expression changed, and he quickly looked out through the shattered window...Because the battle’s fluctuations had been far too intense, countless city defense troops had been drawn over, their shouts rising without end.
“Kill them! Avenge Lord Beast King!”
“Don’t let a single one escape!”
Among them were many Fifth-Rank Class Users, and their numbers had surrounded the mansion so tightly that not even water could pass through.
Even if they could break out, it would still take considerable effort.
And yet at this moment, the two of them failed to notice that Ye Ze had actually started leisurely drawing a trait...Since a fight was definitely coming either way, drawing a trait would not delay anything!
Ye Ze was in an excellent mood.
His twenty-eighth trait emerged from the endless sea of traits:
【You have drawn a Golden Legend-grade Trait: Brutal and Merciless!】
【Brutal and Merciless: The ultimate brutality and suppressive force. Once you inflict injuries, they become extremely difficult for the enemy to recover from. The more severe the enemy’s injuries, the stronger your own power, attack speed, and attack range become!】
The more miserable the enemy was beaten, the stronger he became!
Ye Ze understood at once. It was another combat-type trait!
But before Ye Ze could decide who to bestow it upon, another trait prompt popped up:
【A combinable trait has been detected!】
【‘Overlord’ + ‘Absolute Dominance’ + ‘Brutal and Merciless’ (Combinable)!】
Another new combinable trait!
Still...these three traits were really savage...Ye Ze could not help thinking to himself.
Whether it was the fear effect of Overlord, the control of Absolute Dominance, or Brutal and Merciless itself, all three were exceptionally tyrannical!
Once those three traits were combined...Ye Ze instantly looked forward to it. With a single thought, he combined them immediately!
As golden light burst forth, a trait icon appeared—imperious and overflowing with domination:
【Golden Legend · Higher-order Trait successfully combined: Tyrant!】
