Chapter 500



500 the killing intent from behind

as the air leaked out along with the cut trachea, unable to smoothly enter the lungs, oscar’s eyes were filled with fear. The pain of being unable to breathe made his lungs hurt as if a stone had been stuffed into them.

He wanted to say something, but he was powerless.

With Zhao Xu’s powerful attack, his exquisite sword attack had already accurately destroyed Oscar’s vocal cords. He could only open and close his throat like an old fan, but he couldn’t control it.

The moment that cold light flashed across his eyes, Oscar couldn’t even imagine how his psychological attack that had been so smooth all this time couldn’t even last for a moment before it was killed off by Zhao Xu.

It was as if the other party didn’t care about his ‘folk prescription’ that could allow him to quickly advance in rank.

In Arthur, even monk, who treated money like dirt and swore an oath to be poor, would not relax on enhancing his class level.

Powerful strength was the most basic right to breathe in Arthur. Any random monster that accidentally broke into the village could cause the destruction of several families.

zhao xu looked at his opponent’s consciousness and glanced at his character stats to see his own position on the axis of faith.

Executing the unpardonable prisoner Oscar on the spot without a trial, not only allowed him to go further in the chaotic camp, but his position on the axis of kindness was basically unchanged.

Zhao Xu’s choice was to use the legendary Necromancer staff to seal the soul of the underground leader of Olu city, Klose, because he still had a memory of where the funds of the entire underground organization were stored, and he still had to ask the soul about it.

as for oscar, he chose to end it with a single blade.

By this time, Zhao Xu had already returned to the driver’s seat of the carriage. Oscar, who was behind him, kept trying to use his hands to cover his wounds, but he was tied up so tightly that he couldn’t move.

They could only listen to the approaching death bell.

there are many rules in Arthur, but two of them are essentially unchanged.

“The first rule is to do everything in three ways.”

“the other is an equivalent exchange.”

It was as if Zhao Xu was talking to the air in front of him, but every single word stabbed into Oscar’s heart.

you once obtained a folk prescription from a demon by chance. It uses a human’s heart as a drug primer. Other than relieving your own illness and speeding up your advancement, it also comes with a heavy price.

Zhao Xu could hear that Oscar’s voice was already on the verge of death, and he knew that the prisoner behind him was about to lose consciousness.

that folk prescription is essentially a demonic ritual. The key part is the ritual. It will allow you to use the overdraft of your lifespan in exchange for a faster advancement. If you are really locked up, you will only have a few years of life left.

“by the way, the human heart is not necessary.” Zhao Xu said indifferently, ” it’s for you to kill and let your soul slowly rot. After eating a creature of the same kind, the body will emit a foul smell.”

” otherwise, how could you have fallen into the abyss so easily? ”

As he spoke, Zhao Xu looked at Oscar with pity in his eyes for the first time. do you know what the lowest level of monsters are in the bottomless abyss? ”

it’s not that dretch that looks like a pile of rotten meat. It’s at least a level 2 combat level.

at the very bottom are the Level-1 ‘primogenitors’ that fill the entire mountain. The only contribution of this motley crew is to provide the abyss with the despicable feelings of hatred towards everything around them.

they are often found in cities in the abyss. They are either eaten on the spot, sold as slaves, or hunted by the demons as prey. They either wander aimlessly in search of the end of their hopeless life.

the original devil is the lowest level of demons. Their source is the outer shell transformed from the chaotic and evil mortal souls like you who have arrived at the bottomless abyss.

When Zhao Xu said that the key to the recipe was the ritual to obtain the demon’s power and not the human heart, Oscar’s eyes were filled with fear.

When Zhao Xu finally declared that death wasn’t his end and that he would become the lowest level of ” primal demons “, Oscar started to feel fear from the bottom of his heart. This was his destiny for the rest of his life.

However, it was all too late.

when oscar finally took his last breath, zhao xu turned around and raised his hand. he cast a wizard spell and cleaned up all the blood on the ground.

To say that he was dead and then cut him down with a sword was a bit too cheap.

Zhao Xu was angry at Oscar for his crimes, and he chose to let him know the tragic consequences that would follow after his death. This was the answer he gave to the evildoers of the world.

At this moment, he was also thinking about donder’s promise to him.

Especially when this was promised under the eyes of all the higher-ups.

As long as the hostage could be successfully rescued, many soldiers might not even be able to get a small piece of land even if they served the entire Alliance for their entire lives. This land would end up in Zhao Xu’s hands.

The six sisters had attacked him and robbed the wife and daughter of the leader of the Alliance, so it didn’t sound too much to promise Zhao Xu Starfall town.

But what Zhao Xu was suspicious of wasn’t donder’s motives, but the motives of the six sisters.

in any case, oscar, this kind of overdrawn potential candidate, wouldn’t be the urgent matter for the six sisters.

However, Zhao Xu didn’t have enough information, so he wouldn’t act rashly.

his priority now was to save flay and madam ellie.

No matter if donder was sincere or not.

After sisylvana’s will interfered with the battle at fallen star Lake, the goddess of magic had basically taken control of the faith of the entire Lake. Based on this, the mage Association had specially arranged for a local branch.

And because of Zhao Xu’s status as a priest and his relationship with the Archbishop of winter city, the power of the church was basically under his control.

this way, zhao xu would also be the president of the association and have the ” right ” to own the land.

To put it bluntly, the entire Starfall town could be considered his private territory.

So Zhao Xu had been modifying his own plans along the way, and he kept coming up with new plans for the future of Starfall town.

He could already feel the ” earth crossing ” aura gradually advancing. In the remaining time, he would not make any big movements other than exploring the surroundings.

Managing Starfall town and making it the most solid and reliable base for players after they transmigrated was a key part of Zhao Xu’s plan.

Suddenly, on the path leading to the ice plains, Zhao Xu could vaguely sense an unmoving shadow in the snow up ahead.

He immediately slowed down the speed of the war horse and took out a pure white snow Rabbit from the cage at the bottom of the carriage. It seemed to be one with the world.

Zhao Xu took out some dried food and cast the 2nd circle divine spell, shared body.

The rabbit, which was originally ignorant, suddenly opened its mouth and swallowed the dried meat in his hand. Then, it jumped and ran toward the snow in front.

In that instant, Zhao Xu used the power of the spell to gain the vision and sense of smell of a Wolf, and he was able to observe the world around him.

His vision instantly switched to the snow rabbit’s body. Following its gaze, he looked at The World of Ice and snow, running and leaping forward.

The White snow in front of him seemed to have turned into a trap set up by the six sisters.

This situation was more or less out of Zhao Xu’s expectations. If he was the one making the arrangements, he would have dragged it out to the first meeting point.

However, as the clamor of the cold air around them calmed down …

Zhao Xu started to sense the murderous intent in the world from the innocent eyes of the snow Rabbit.

In an instant, an afterimage pounced over, and he felt his vision spin and shake violently.

Then, his field of vision turned completely black. Zhao Xu could just barely make out that the structure of his field of vision was a red scene that looked like mucous membrane.

It was like a swallow going through the throat, and after a few seconds, the spell was directly disconnected.

zhao xu’s expression changed even though he wasn’t injured at all.

He was very calm when he was in the field of vision of the snow Rabbit that was constantly circling. There was no danger to his life. He saw hundreds of Winter Wolves and even a few Frost Giants lying in wait.

waiting in the path he had to take.

Zhao Xu immediately whipped the horse, and the warhorse started neighing on the spot. It then started to gallop forward.

it wouldn’t be a problem for zhao xu to take out hundreds of winter wolves in a village.

with just a few “extreme” and “twin” fireballs, he could even exterminate this branch of winter wolves.

Most importantly, he didn’t want to reveal his true strength to the six sisters.

The moment he thought it through, Zhao Xu started driving the horse carriage towards the ice Mountain range.

Logically speaking, it was undoubtedly a path of death to ascend the ice plains mountain range during winter.

After crossing this ice field mountain range, there were countless beastmen and half-beastman tribes on the Persian Plains. With their physical strength that surpassed humans, they couldn’t cross the ice field mountain range in the summer.

Not to mention the cold winter.

Usually, only the most cunning and powerful ” hunters of the North ” would walk around the Icefield mountains and collect information on the frost Giants, white dragons, Winter Wolves, and even orc tribes on the other side of the mountains before feeding it back to the Alliance and other forces.

It was said that when the northern lands were short of food, there was a year where the elderly were left to the mountains to fend for themselves.

Therefore, in the eyes of all the residents of the North, the ice fields and mountains were a land of death.

The six sisters, other than their own strength and the number of subordinates they had, were able to survive until now because they had set up their nest on the ice Mountain range.

The first place they agreed on was the mirror Heart Lake.

Zhao Xu was driving the horse carriage and running through the snow. Soon, the winter Wolves appeared behind him.

He looked over and almost sighed.

Sure enough, there were hundreds of Winter Wolves that were constantly swarming over.

Zhao Xu immediately cast a few spells to make the carriage float in the air and reduce the burden on the warhorses. This allowed him to maintain a distance from the winter Wolves behind him.

However, even after doing this, it was still difficult to resolve the doubts in his heart.

Zhao Xu thought to himself that no matter who wanted to plot against him, they shouldn’t have chased away a pack of Winter Wolves, because they wouldn’t be able to kill him. As long as he flew up into the air, even though he would lose his vision due to the blizzard, these Winter Wolves that couldn’t fly wouldn’t be able to do anything to him.

“Bang!”

A giant rock was thrown from behind by the frost Giants. However, there was too much resistance against the wind and it couldn’t catch up to the speed of Zhao Xu’s carriage, so it was left behind.

Something was wrong.

Zhao Xu suddenly came to his senses. He turned around and looked at Oscar’s body that had already turned cold in the car.

It seemed that the ‘sovereignty’ of Starfall town was not that easy to obtain.

Or rather, this was just the first appetizer of the endless killing intent.

Some people didn’t want to hand over the living Oscar to the six sisters.

or rather, he didn’t want flay and madam ellie to come back.

In the Alliance, there was a mysterious force that could communicate with the ice field mountain range, and they wanted to kill the ‘hostages’ that the six sisters had requested.

But now, Zhao Xu’s heart was also starting to become ruthless.

He was definitely going to take over.

This would also greatly help him in establishing the Association’s branch. Therefore, anyone who dared to stand in his way would be eliminated by him.

Zhao Xu immediately changed his path slightly and kept looking at the direction of the ice-cracked Canyon in front of him.

That was the most difficult and dangerous path to the ice plains mountain range. If one was not careful, they would fall off the cliff, be pierced by ice, or even be crushed into pieces.
