Rebirth: Over the Horizon

Chapter 188 - Betrayers?

"Why did you do this…?"

Adam stared at the girl in front of him with menacing eyes, even though they war was still ongoing he wasn't in a situation to fight against these monsters now. 

"Guild master? You are shitty dumbass!! You took advantage of the human beings and toy with their lifes!! You scum you deserve to death…"

She suddenly shot towards Adam despite being heavily injured by him, "Tuk…"

Blood splashed all over him, it came gushing out A meow's clothes, Adam turned his gaze and saw the one who killed here.

'Cordellia…'

"Night…of stars!!"

The dying girl lowly muttered these three words which unfortunately was caught by Adam.

'Night of stars…so she isn't original Cordelia…'

The fake Cordelia killed her companion and put up an act of being his side.

"I didn't expect her to aim your life, guild master. I am sorry!"

Her acting was somewhat plausible however, she had no talent. "What did you do to Cordelia…"

"What are talking about…?"

"Stars at night is your code name: Who are you? How many sabotages are in my guild…"

The girl in front of him suddenly began to laught, a crazy one in that. "Hehehe…"

Adam exactly knows what kind if situation is this, 'A internal faction which opposes me gad already formed...'

"I didn't expect you to find me out…however, don't think you will get anything from me…sooner or later you will die...keke..."

The girl gurgled by white bubbles and died before Adam, seeing her dead body Adam wasn't worried he was only sighed. 

"Let's first warp up this war siege…"

Just as Adam ran towards the door of the town, with a triumphant determination on his face, a dark iron arrow suddenly pierced out of some space. Even though the iron arrow used a chain to link an unknown corner, its speed was still fast.

The voice of "Ting Ling Ling" came from behind Adam. Adam's face suddenly changed, he immediately activated [Fluid barrier] at this time. Then Iron Arrow made a circle in the air.

"Flash…"

This iron arrow whirled in the air, and then lashed towards the position where Adam used "flash" to escape.

The sound of the iron chains of "ding bell" kept hitting, and the arrows entwined with the iron chains accelerated. A layer of red light suddenly appeared on the iron arrow, which was a sign that the attack was strengthened.

Adam turned around immediately after the effect of the skill "Flashing" to check the situation behind him. Adam turned around immediately because he heard the sound of the metal collision.

Seeing that this skill has a "locking" special effect, Adam gave up the struggle. It's just that when he saw the red light, he smiled helplessly.

Adam, who has more than 3 years of pent up knowledge, naturally knows what this means, which means that this attack has been greatly strengthened.

'It's same as the demon arrow's silver arrow!' So he can only continue to run, towards the interior of the troops. He doesn't have any confidence in avoiding the attack of iron arrows, but he now wants to avoid becoming a target of fire for the skeleton archers who are beginning to appear.

Another consideration is that generally speaking, the "locking" feature requires positioning first, and positioning is to determine the target. Adam hiding in the crowd would not be so easy to locate and lock.

After Adam was still a few yards away from the crowd, he used the skill "Flashing" again, and he had already entered the crowd.

Adam, who had entered the crowd, turned around, and the red iron arrow stabbed Adam's body without any accident.

The armor value provided by "Fluid barrier" was emptied almost instantly. Adam glanced at his HP value and couldn't help gritting his teeth slightly, his HP value at this time had not even reached one-third.

Adam immediately used a bottle of medicine that instantly recovered 50% of his HP value. Adam and then when Adam wanted to use a bottle of slow recovery potion to restore his health to full value, the light of a healing technique fell on Adam's body.

Adam's health was instantly full. He looked back and saw the figure Cordelia in tattered robe and bruised face.

"We are definitely going to win this fight…" At this time, the gems on her staff became dimmed. It was obvious that the night stars used the skill "Healing" on Adam.

Adam nodded at the night stars, and then put the blood bottle in his hand back into his backpack. He sighed softly and his eyes became full of confidence.

Like Adam thought, he can no longer be located and locked while hiding in the crowd. So after Adam pulled out the iron arrow that had pierced his chest and threw it out, the existence of the cold arrow fell into silence.

The iron arrow that was thrown out was taken back, and in the process of contraction, the iron arrow still made a crisp sound of "jingle bell". Then the iron arrow and chain contracted from low altitude to high altitude, shaking out an arc, and then fleeing into the void…

Adam stared into the distance for a long time, and then he was slightly relieved when he saw that mysterious existence fell silent.

Adam turned around to face the battlefield. At this time, the skeleton warriors had almost been cleaned up. Then Adam began to use fireball to shoot at the skeleton gladiator.

Although the attributes of the Skeleton Gladiator have been greatly improved compared to the normal Skeleton Warrior, for Adam who is already 180th-level and has a full set of legendary weapons, killing a skeleton gladiator is just a like crushing an ant.

'I have to quickly finish this up and lead the troops to destroy the portals…'

Adam stopped using spells, after casting himself [Fluid barrier] and [Time Shield] he began to be head these dumb skeletons, at extremely fast pace.

'I have to inquire about the internal conflict to Cordelia later on…'
