Chapter 126 - The Past of Barton

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After being reborn, some things actually deviated from the track of his previous life. This made Lu Yuan very puzzled!

What was even more ridiculous was that he was reborn!

Lu Yuan felt as if there was a big hand controlling everything in the dark, controlling his fate!

Then, Lu Yuan shook his head and put all the thoughts behind. With his current strength, it was useless to think too much.

He could not even defeat Guan Yue now!

What Lu Yuan did not know was that not only was he unable to defeat Guan Yue now, but he would also not be able to do so for a long period of time in the future.

The next morning, Lu Yuan got up and washed up as usual. After a simple meal, he logged into the game.

Today’s goal: to take down Barton and obtain the Eternal Sea Dharma!

After Lu Yuan logged into the game, he went to Eternal Sea Tavern to buy two jars of wine. This time, the lady boss still gave Lu Yuan a jar for free, but Lu Yuan still gave her the money for the two jars of wine.

He had no choice. He had too much money… and nowhere to spend it!

He now owned an auction house in Amber City, a level 20 main city, and a level 30 main city!

Today, Lu Yuan came to visit Barton again. Although it had only been one night in real life, it had already been three to four days in the game!

Barton had been craving for wine for a long time!

Seeing Lu Yuan come over with two jars of wine, Barton immediately praised Lu Yuan!

After Barton drank a mouthful of wine, he asked Lu Yuan, “Kid, are you here for something, or are you here just for chatting?”

Lu Yuan shook his head and said with a smile, “I’m still chatting with you today because I’m waiting for the answer to that question!”

If he wanted Barton to let go of the past, then he had to let him face it directly!

Lu Yuan did not tell Barton that he had a way to make him stand up again. If Barton continued to be depressed even with the new legs, then Lu Yuan did not want to waste the conjoined metal!

If Lu Yu broke his leg one day, he could still use it, right?

Barton’s expression dimmed again.

After a long time, Barton slowly said to Lu Yuan, “Alright! Since you want to know so much, I’ll tell you!”

“I was originally Baz’s master and a former Eternal Sea Guardian!”

“But I’m not competent enough to be the guardian. So, I let Baz, who was not mature enough at that time, take my position!”

“Fortunately, Baz didn’t disappoint us. After he took my position as the Eternal Sea Guardian in advance, he worked hard to cultivate and increase his strength. Soon, he would be a true Eternal Sea Guardian who could guard Sea-suppressing Tower alone!”

“That year… my wife was taken away by the sea demons on the sea…”

Lu Yuan couldn’t help but sigh after hearing Barton’s words. Barton was a real man!

It turned out that Barton’s wife was taken away by the Seahorse Race Leader on the coast of the Eternal Sea City!

At that time, Barton was not in the Sea-suppressing Tower. Additionally, the Seahorse Race Leader was very good at concealing himself. Therefore, Barton didn’t notice that his wife was taken away.

After taking away Barton’s wife, the Seahorse Race Leader showed up on the surface of the sea and provoked Barton. Then, he killed his wife in front of him!

Then, the Seahorse Race Leader hid and escaped. Hence, Barton didn’t manage to kill the Seahorse Race Leader that day!

After returning to Eternal Sea City, Barton finished his wife’s funeral. Ignoring the other Eternal Sea Guardians and the City Lord, he insisted on going to kill the sea demons!

At that time, Baz didn’t have the ability to succeed Barton and become the new guardian to guard the Sea-suppressing Tower!

If Barton died, then the high-end battle power balance between Eternal Sea City and the sea races would collapse!

At that time, Eternal Sea City would have a hard time resisting the sea race’s forces!

Unless Barton could kill the Seahorse Race Leader at that time, then the balance between the Eternal Sea City and the sea race would not collapse!

However, it was impossible for Barton to kill the Seahorse Race Leader in the sea race’s territory!

That was why Barton said that he was an incompetent Eternal Sea Guardian!

He had ignored the safety of the Eternal Sea City and entered the territory of the Seahorse Race alone, just so that he could avenge his dead wife!

However, Barton didn’t mean to put Eternal Sea City at danger. At that time, Barton had already thought that he would die together with the Seahorse Race Leader, so he wouldn’t break the balance between the two forces!

Barton had never thought that he could come back alive!

Just like that, Barton stepped into the sea territory of the Seahorse Race alone. He directly charged into the palace of the Seahorse Race and started a world-shaking battle with the Seahorse Race Leader!

During that battle, the two huge Dharmas set off layers of huge waves in the sea. The two Dharmas covered the sky and the sun. They kept fighting until the sky went dark and causing countless big waves slammed onto the shores!

That battle dyed the sea region of the Seahorse Race red with blood!

At that time, Barton had fused with the Eternal Sea Dharma, and the more he fought, the fiercer he became!

The Seahorse Race Leader was simply not a match for him!

Furthermore, because the battlefield was within the sea territory of the Seahorse Race, the Seahorse Race Leader had to be careful even when Barton attacked, as he was afraid that a powerful skill would destroy his hometown!

Hence, when he faced the reckless Barton, he was quickly defeated!

He was directly blasted into pieces by Barton’s Dharma, while Barton was seriously injured and couldn’t escape. His legs were broken by the huge formation of the Seahorse Race!

After Barton’s legs were broken, he couldn’t escape anymore. He thought that he was going to die!

However, he didn’t expect that the other Eternal Sea Guardian rushed over to save him!

Just as the Eternal Sea Guardian escaped with Barton, another sea demon leader arrived!

The sea demon leader ambushed the two of them from behind and broke the spine of the Eternal Sea Guardian with one palm!

That was why that Eternal Sea Guardian had become a cripple just like Barton!

This was the reason was why Barton didn’t want to recall his past!

If he hadn’t been so impulsive back then, if he had been a little stronger back then, perhaps that Eternal Sea Guardian wouldn’t have been crippled!

Because of Barton’s impulsiveness, Eternal Sea City had lost two Eternal Sea Guardians at that time!

Fortunately, the heir of the Eternal Sea Guardian was enough to guard the Sea-suppressing Tower. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable!

For so many years, Barton had been living in guilt, unable to walk out of the pain of losing his wife!

That was why he drank all day long, using alcohol to escape reality!

From Lu Yuan’s point of view, Barton’s choice back then was not too bad, because Barton was confident that he could die with the Seahorse Race Leader. In that way, Eternal Sea City could still maintain its balance with the sea race!

As for that Eternal Sea Guardian, Barton did not expect that he would actually come to save him! But in the end, it was Barton who caused a devastating injury to him!

At this moment, Lu Yuan slowly said to Barton, “Then why aren’t you taking revenge for him, why are you still lying on bed and dreaming of killing those sea demons every day?”

“But I can’t stand up at all!” Barton directly roared angrily at Lu Yuan. He was in agony when he reminded his unfortunate past.

However, Lu Yuan was not angry.. He took out a pair of prosthetic legs and slowly said to Barton, “Then I’ll give you a chance to stand up again!”
