Chapter 754: Reel in the Net (4)



Jacob, rotating his swords in two opposite directions, was like a butcher as he continued to slaughter those assassins without giving them any chance to react or counterattack.

However, he was completely immersed in it; in fact, he was pretending to be wild without any care. But the truth was, he was already aware of the hidden danger, the true masterminds hidden at the edge of this barrier, all because of Immortika.

But they were far more patient, and despite him slaughtering almost two hundred of these assassins, they still didn't make any move. Although he was losing his patience, he continued to butcher these blood bags and kept collecting them without leaving any behind.

After all, he wasn't sure what would happen once the real fight began, and he was secretly absorbing the scattered blood to replenish his energy. It was quite ironic that they wanted him to exhaust himself, but if he had blood, it was nigh impossible.

At this moment, just as Jacob was about to stab another assassin, he sensed something amiss and quickly dodged. The very next moment, 'Boom!'

The assassin suddenly exploded, and a powerful explosion filled with destructive magic force occurred!

Although this explosion wasn't at the level of his own, it was still akin to the full might of an atomic bullet. Not to mention, Jacob instantly sensed the potent corrosion properties in the dark gray smock—it was poisonous!

Jacob's eyes narrowed as he wasn't expecting this kind of trick, and just as he was wondering if the others were also suicide bombers, those assassins no longer tried to strong-arm him or use any spell or weapon. When they were within ten-meter range, they started to explode one after another, creating terrifying blasts and releasing thick poisonous fog.

"Boom...boom...boom..."

"Wait, did you sense this? The poison fog seemed to be beaming thin and flowing towards the center of the island!" A ghostly voice suddenly exclaimed as two gray flames flared violently behind his cloak.

"Hmm?" The Leader and others finally turned their attention away from Asher as they noticed this peculiarity.

"It's indeed, as you said, Mr. 65,100, and it seems to be gathering towards our target's last visual location. It seemed he still had some tricks up his sleeve." The Leader impassively replied, and the calm in his voice still didn't deter him even a little bit. His attention was again on the growing runic circle.

A dark golden lightning flashed past his eyes, 'No matter what you do, you can't escape today!'

However, after a few moments, the calm in the Leader's eyes finally shook ever so slightly because a dark gray mist had suddenly turned into a massive cyclone. Even stranger, the dark gray cyclone contained a faint crimson glow.

But what happened next left everyone astonished. The faint crimson glow suddenly started to pulse and gathered towards the lower center of the cyclone, turning the lower half of the cyclone bright crimson.

However, it was far from over because when all the strange glowing crimson color gathered together, it started to slowly drop, little by little, as if something down there were devouring it endlessly.

At this moment, Mr. 65,100 suddenly exclaimed with disbelief, "T-that... that's Blood Vitality! How can he control so much blood vitality and even separate it from the poison fog?! No, even if he can do it all, how is he absorbing so much!? Did he want to commit suicide? What kind of Dark Being is he!?"

His sudden revelation startled everyone, as they all knew what Blood Vitality was. Even the Leader was astounded. They all looked towards the Leader for an answer. After all, what they were witnessing was truly out of the scope of their knowledge.

The Leader's eyes narrowed for the first time, and he felt something amiss as he replied with uncertainty, "I don't know how or what he's doing, but I'm pretty sure that he's not a Dark Being!"
