Chapter 563: Crushing rivals with brute strength

Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation

Sheyan’s phrase of ‘just one minute is enough’ deeply hurt the werewolf’s heart, as its eyes flashed with fury and humiliation!

Howling to the sky, the werewolf raised its flexed furry arms up as it unyieldingly received the incoming blade slash, before following up with a swipe of its dull-yellowish claws towards the opponent’s throat!

He wanted to enlighten this damned foe on the term known as boasting shamelessly!!!

Blood splashed but none belonged to the werewolf. Instead, it was a chunk of Sheyan’s chest that got ripped apart as blood spurted profusely.

His saber had surprisingly slashed against this werewolf to no avail!

A great astonishment welled up in Sheyan’s heart because it felt as though his inevitable slash, had struck against an incomparably tough padding that shielded the werewolf. Slashing but not cutting, stabbing but not penetrating, the momentum of his saber was heavily obstructed.

At this instance, a crisp shattering pierced into the air. Paying close attention, the sound came out from the werewolf’s body. Paying closer attention, one would notice that an extremely clear crack had emerged on the wolf-fang necklace that slung across its neck.

Encountering such a scenario, the werewolf’s beastly face abruptly twitched while its eyes brimmed with shock and horror!

A single blade!!!

A single blade had sufficed to break his protection talisman!

One must understand, the silver storyline grade protection talisman provided tremendous fortification, and wasn’t the least bit inferior to Sheyan’s ‘+5 Monstrous Fighting Spirit’. In every interval of ten minutes, it could additionally supply 4 points of absolute defence.

Absolute defence meant that most attacks would be forcibly reduced to merely a single point of damage. As such, the werewolf possessing its protection talisman could guard against four times of its opponent’s attack. However, Sheyan’s single blade had overwhelmed its effect.

"What kind of freak am I facing?!"

"Could it be every strike of his darned saber would f***ing unleash four different counts of attack?" A shuddering notion flashed past the werewolf’s heart.

"How the heck did we provoke such a pervert?"

A second later, the werewolf’s sharp claws tore against Sheyan’s skull as it ripped out few streaks of blood. Sheyan reacted by bluntly swiping his long saber horizontally through the werewolf’s waist.

Following his slashing saber, the werewolf instantly released an anguished howl as its passionate willpower vanished into oblivion.

"Holy sheet……an ordinary attack plus crushing damages, additional saber property damages, and true damages……this is simply a weapon more terrifying than hell! Ah sheet, have we provoked someone we shouldn’t have?!"

Pondering with that thought, the werewolf no longer dared to retaliate to Sheyan’s neck slashing saber. Instead, it rolled away wretchedly and fled while glancing at Sheyan with eyes filled with dread.

Having his movement speed impeded, Sheyan couldn’t pursue it. Besides, the werewolf retained its nimble agility.

"Not fighting anymore?" Sheyan insipidly scoffed. "Then I’ll go ahead and reinforce eh."

The werewolf’s facial muscles twitched, understanding the deadly consequences of letting Sheyan off. However, that single blade had been sufficient to engraved a deep lesson onto his heart! It became like a nightmare that relentlessly tormented him.

Still, the werewolf attempted to stride forward. Yet when Sheyan glanced back at it, it subconsciously retreated two steps backwards.

Sheyan stared at the werewolf and indifferently advised.

"To live is a blessing, I hope you will not squander your life away needlessly. Even if you stake in your life, how could can you hinder me? Ten seconds, twenty? When I finally am free to aid my comrades, your death would be in vain!"

After concluding, Sheyan headed off without glancing back.

"Grr…zhi…grr…zhi" The werewolf’s teeth chattered as its fur drenched with sweat while shivering repeatedly. It no longer had the guts to pounce forth a single step, because it could sense a powerful murderous aura from Sheyan! If it persisted in pursuit, death would be the only reprisal!

Naturally, Nick had no clue the werewolf couldn’t even stall Sheyan for twenty seconds. Nevertheless, he still possessed his own trump card.

Never forget, he was the boss of the demolition expert, Chris. Nick had unexpectedly carried along a massive load of explosives created by Chris himself.

Following that, the female Wesleyan managed to trap Sheyan with a peculiar ability.

To his surprise, she proceeded to carry the explosives Chris had created, and rushed towards Sheyan for an outcome of mutual destruction.

A kamikaze!!

One could note that Nick was truly a frightening individual who could manipulate one’s heart. He actually managed to convince his own member to perish willingly for himself!! In this aspect, he wasn’t inferior to Sheyan at all!

The might of the kamikaze explosion was astronomically devastating, where it directly killed off Wesleyan.

Fortunately, Sheyan was merely fried into a near-death state, where the miraculous silver coating of ‘Life-link’ preserved his life. Nick’s plan had once again failed.

The only favourable news was, that black gunner had been forced into a dead end…

Yet right at this moment, Reef dazzled into the scene.

Although Nick was aware that another was hiding in ambush, he only realized that Reef was the true MT of his enemy’s party after crossing hands with him!!!

He actually managed to forcefully withstand the terrifying onslaught of the electric saw. Another MT that didn’t spare a single effort to shield his comrade!!!

When the remaining members of the Triple-K party received such a scary blow, they truly lost their fighting spirit. Even any feelings of cursing or retaliation had dissipated. The only word that pierced their dull minds was:

"Absurd!"

Nick continued unleashing successions of fantastic abilities, which could be described as superficially impressive.

Looking in perspective, Nick’s plans and strategy occupied the greater superiority. However, the battle prowess of both parties were truly akin to a wide chasm. This chasm was seemingly impassable and hard to level. Hence, the Triple-K party could only perish while nursing this grievance.

As compared to Sheyan, Nick actually exhibited a more detailed micro-planning towards this particular scenario, so much so that he could be considered the convincing victor of this battle. Sadly, his macro vision towards the big picture of affairs was ultimately eclipsed by Sheyan in respects to the realm.

Therefore, although both parties had each triumphed in their individual battlegrounds over the course of their adventures in the realm and had earned great profits……in the end, their combat prowess was separated by a vast gulf.

This was akin giving 10,000 dollars to two individuals at the same time. One would directly employ this 10,000 dollars to engage in illicit smuggling, where he wouldn’t be shy of dishing out tens of dollars. Instead, the other employed the 10,000 dollars to start up a tiny grocery store, meticulously calculating all the minute details to prevent himself from losing profits. In this manner, he would receive a steady flow of income from the store eventually. In contrast, the smuggler may face heavy repercussions. Yet in the long run, the smuggler would merely require one big opportunity for him to soar through the heavens, utterly tearing up a massive disparity between the two!

After killing off Nick and company, Sheyan had no intentions of eradicating the werewolf who had fled far away. Nevertheless, sufficient blood keys had been gathered for his military mission.

Although the blood keys of the two contestants couldn’t be discussed in the same league as a reserve-duty Growth-hunter’s one, there wasn’t any other alternative. To the trio, only a minute few contestants could really contend against them. Furthermore, they truly did their utmost to obtain the two blood keys.

************************

Time trickled by. Port Royal gradually recovered from the trauma of that terrifying ‘epidemic’. People died, but the living still had to maintain their livelihood. Work continued as usual, and the state of affairs returned bustling as before.

Noteworthily, Commodore Norrington was no longer as strict as before in Port Royal. He was a pragmatic man after all.

During this period of time, Norrington begun adopting several appeasing policies, closing one eye to certain underground activities that didn’t push the limits of his principles.

For example, he started loosening his grip on the inspection of smuggled goods. Still, he retained the utmost severity toward smuggled arms and goods in the same category. Towards other merchant commodities, he merely shut one eye while opening the other.

Of course, the prerequisites would be offering additional commissions to his marines for those smugglers. This conduct led to many merchants despising Norrington, labelling him as being a different broth but still the same type of medicine; appearing righteous but inwardly having no difference to those greedy officers. Furthermore, his subordinates were even more vicious.

However, they didn’t know that although Norrington similarly pocketed money like supervisors of other ports, the funds he pocketed didn’t actually go into his own pockets as compared to the other supervisors.

Instead, Norrington continued living a simple personal life as he resided in his navy camp, eating and living with his fellow marines. Furthermore, he channelled the excess of funds he earned towards fortifying his own navy fleet!

One could vaguely notice, the exhausted vigor of the marines who fought against Chevalle’s pirate fleet, was gradually rejuvenating.

Days after Norrington had assumed full command over Port Royal’s initially slackened defence, even the damaged city walls were renovated. In addition, four indomitable forts had reached its junior phase of construction.

Noteworthily, Sheyan was definitely not someone who would not claim credit on his meritorious deeds. Through several ingenious methods, he allowed certain insider characters realize that he was the main mastermind in rescuing the beautiful Lady Elizabeth. Lastly, he even hinted that his group was personally responsible for the execution of those bold pirates who dared to disrupt the peace of Port Royal.

Therefore, Sheyan not only established close ties with the governor, he was even integrated into the category as an ‘esteemed guest’.

Even Will Turner became willing to forgo his haughty posture and granted audience with the trio. Don’t forget, Will Turner was still a blacksmith by profession, an outstanding blacksmith who could forge a silver storyline grade weapon!

Therefore, Sheyan managed get Will Turner to mend his ‘+7 West’ after forking out 2,000 guineas. Furthermore, Sheyan received a pleasant surprise as its basic attack was even permanently boosted by 8%.
