Chapter 64: Above Your Head
“That’s impossible!”
Andre’s pupils shrank.
It was as if he had seen something strange.
Truth be told, the scene that was unfolding before him was more shocking than the appearance of a ghost.
In Andre’s imagination, no one could surpass him.
That applied to the bosses in the dungeons as well.
With the SS-Rank talent of [Primordial Force], he was the absolute king of strength.
At that moment, his confidence was shattered by reality.
No matter how hard he tried, the hammer did not budge at all. It was as if it was embedded in the hand of the Yatengu.
“That’s totally impossible!”
Andre’s eyes were bloodshot, and the veins on his arms bulged. He had used up all his strength.
Even if there was a small mountain before him, it would have shaken due to the forces he exerted.
“Die…”
“Trespassers of…Gaotian Plains… I’ll kill them all without mercy!”
The Yatengu continued repeating these words.
Under the night sky, its red face and long nose exuded a frightening sensation.
Swoosh!
The katana slashed down!
A cold light flashed past, and Andre, who was trapped in place, could not dodge the blow at all. One of his arms got cut off by the blade.
Blood flowed like a fountain from the wound in his shoulder.
The wound was too big. It was impossible to stop the bleeding.
Andre lowered his head and looked at the smooth mirror-like wound on his arm in disbelief…
“This… is impossible!”
He still could not accept what had happened.
To a mage like Chen Feng, losing a hand did not have much of an impact. After all, he could still unleash magic with his other hand.
Even without his hands, he could still use his mental power to communicate with the magical elements in space.
However, for a skilled close-combat fighter like Andre, his combat ability would drop by half or even more without an arm!
His path as an Awakened One was doomed…
This was not something that the proud and egotistic Andre could accept.
Andre stood where he was. His right hand was still holding onto the [King’s Hammer of Aranda] tightly.
His eyes were bloodshot. Nobody could read his mind.
“Andre!”
His companion roared with all his might in the distance.
“Stop staring blankly. Hurry up and run!”
Just then, the Yatengu’s gaze had locked onto Andre once more. The katana in its hand flickered with an icy cold light.
There were no bloodstains on the knife.
Due to the high speed of the slash earlier, even Andre’s blood did not spill out in time.
This was a knife that could kill without spilling blood!
“I…”
Andre was still in a daze. His eyes were filled with despair.
His strength had been overpowered. His left arm was handicapped…
The strike from the Yatengu did not seem to have landed on his arm. It had severely wounded his heart instead, causing him to sink into deep despair.
Swoosh!
A cold light flashed.
The Yatengu struck again. Instead of aiming at Andre’s right hand, it aimed at…his heart!
The Yatengu had only come to kill.
This katana was the sickle that Thanatos held in ancient Greek mythology. It repeaned lives mercilessly.
Bang!
He snapped his fingers in the wilderness.
“Teleportation!”
In an instant, Andre’s figure disappeared before the Yatengu and was replaced by one of his teammates.
The young man in a casual sweater had taken Andre’s place.
He held the [King of Aranda’s Hammer] in his right hand, and snapped his fingers using his left hand.
Swoosh!
The katana slashed down.
The extreme sharpness of the blade split the young man’s body into two halves. His skin, muscles, bones, and organs were just as weak and flimsy as white paper under his blade.
“Brother, you can’t die yet.”
The young man turned his head. With a peaceful smile on his face, he looked at Andre, who was more than ten meters away.
“You are the owner of the SS-Rank talent [Primordial Force]. You are the hope of our family. Live on. You must become… the strongest out there!”
His head had already been severed before he could finish his sentence. Half of his body lay quietly in a pool of blood. He was no longer breathing.
“Yuri!”
Andre finally came to his senses. He looked at the body lying in a pool of blood before him as he let out a heart-wrenching cry.
This was his younger brother!
Yuri just said that he could not die because he was the hope of their family after awakening his SS-Rank talent.
However, Yuri himself also had an SS-Rank talent and an even rarer spatial-type one at that!
Something happened just when the katana was about to land down on him.
Yuri used spatial magic to align his position with Andre’s, thereby sacrificing himself to save Andre’s life.
Andre closed his eyes, and two streams of bloody tears flowed out from the corners of his eyes.
He said in a voice that only Yuri could hear.
“I promise you, Yuri.”
“I will definitely become the strongest out there.”
…
This tragic scene was only a representation of a small part of the world in a dungeon.
Each and every dungeon was like a war.
All the players were like soldiers in war.
There was no time for one to think about love on the battlefield. Over here…there were only the two paths of failure and victory.
The path of failure resulted in blood, grief, and death.
The road to victory was filled with strength, honor, and power.
…
The Yatengu swept its gaze across everyone before it.
There were too many Awakened Ones. With hundreds of humans gathered here, even a creature as powerful as it would find it difficult to deal with them.
The Yatengu took out a straw cape from behind its back and covered its body with it before disappearing without a trace.
“He’s invisible!”
Park Yunmo cried out in surprise and immediately looked at Chen Feng.
He knew that only Chen Feng, who possessed the Eye of Truth, could see the invisible target.
The summoning magic circle appeared, and a cute doll flew out.
“Eye of Truth!”
The doll could share its true vision with its owner, Chen Feng.
Therefore, Chen Feng used the doll’s eyes to observe his surroundings..
The spot where the Yatengu had been just now was already empty.
“Where did it go?”
Chen Feng frowned and looked around.
There were Awakened Ones everywhere. They held their weapons and looked around nervously.
Chen Feng had already taken a good look around him, but he still could not see Yatengu anywhere.
“Could it be…”
Chen Feng suddenly raised his head and looked up.
He had almost forgotten about the black wings on the back of the Yatengu.
The Yatengu could fly!
