Starting With 3 S-Class Talents
Chapter 409 - Succeeded in Killing, Driving the Tiger to Devour the WolfChapter 409: Succeeded in Killing, Driving the Tiger to Devour the Wolf
“No, no, this is impossible, this is absolutely impossible! I am now a true demon. How can I die in your hands?”
After seeing Vincent raise his knife, Jessica shouted crazily while dodging the attacks of the Zerg. She vented out the unwillingness in her heart.
The current predicament made Jessica feel extremely hopeless. She was aware that the most powerful attribute of the Demon Race was not their physical body, but their vast and complex powerful spells. However, she did not gain any benefits from the spells at all when fighting against the Zerg.
On the other side, Vincent had raised his knife and was prepared to attack. Jessica knew that it was going to be another attack that she could not withstand!
At that moment, Jessica, who had once looked down on Andre’s barbaric and crude fighting style, suddenly felt envy toward Andre. If she could also possess Andre’s valiant physical strength and regenerative ability at that moment, she would not be embarrassed by Vincent. However, it was too late for any other thoughts!
Vincent’s hand had condensed into a huge flaming blade once again. He slashed toward the top of Jessica’s head.
Just as Jessica closed her eyes in despair, the Zerg suddenly raised its pincers and blocked Vincent’s flaming blade.
Vincent and Jessica did not expect the Zerg to do that. The two of them could not help but turn their heads to look at the Zerg at the same time.
The Zerg turned its head. The eight eyes on its head split into two directions, staring at Vincent and Jessica respectively. It seemed that it had both Vincent and Jessica as its targets all along. It wanted to kill the two of them by itself. It would never allow the two of them to die in the hands of others, much less allow them to kill each other!
Vincent saw through the Zerg’s ambition, and the corners of his mouth could not help but reveal a disdainful sneer.
Jessica thought that this was her chance to escape and ascend to heaven. The black sky had been destroyed by Vincent. Jessica was no longer able to cast the spell to open up a distant magical realm. However, she could still rely on her own strength to quickly retreat.
Nevertheless, Jessica did not expect Vincent and the Zerg to see through her plans.
Vincent naturally would not consider the tough Zerg as his first target. He wanted to get rid of Jessica first!
The Zerg, on the other hand, did not want to let off the Dark Elf that had made it run for half a day. Thus, the moment Jessica tried to escape, Vincent raised his knife and was prepared to chase after her. However, the Zerg’s reaction was even faster. It turned to look at Jessica, raised its tail, and shot out spider webs at Vincent who was behind it.
The Zerg bent its six spider legs and stomped hard on the ground. It chased after Jessica at high speed.
Vincent had no choice but to stop and wave his knife to cut open the spider webs that were in his way. He felt helpless after seeing that the Zerg had seized the opportunity before him.
As the Zerg continued to evolve, not only was it constantly innovating its offensive methods, but it was also purifying its intelligence. The Zerg actually knew how to finish off its opponents one by one. It did not give anybody else a chance to take advantage of it. It looked like it was becoming more and more difficult to deal with!
Vincent also realized that he could not give this ancient Zerg any more chances to evolve. Once he used it to kill Jessica and Andre, he will start dealing with this Zerg. Otherwise, when it evolved to a higher form, it would really be difficult for him to deal with it. It might even bring another disaster to Elf World!
After thinking about it, Vincent made an even bolder decision. Not only would he deal with Jessica, but he would also wait for an opportunity to attack and injure the Zerg. He was striving to get rid of it directly!
Following that, Vincent spread his Flaming Wings and quickly chased after the Zerg.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe Zerg had already caught up to Jessica at this time. It raised its two pincers and was prepared to pierce through Jessica’s chest. It naturally did not have the time to pay attention to the surrounding battlefield.
At this time, Jessica, who was complaining endlessly, could barely cast a few defensive spells to block the attacks of the Zerg. She wanted to cry out for help, but she did not know who else could save her at that moment.
Andre was busy running around under the siege of Vincent’s team.
There were also no more forces that could support her in Bright Moon City.
Jessica’s plan from the start was to kill Andre and find a way to obtain the Origin Divine Earth. This way, she would be able to control two portions of the Origin Divine Earth, thus obtaining more benefits from Gajero.
Therefore, in order to prevent the news from leaking out, Jessica did not use the power of Serene Spring City. Instead, she hired a weak seven-man team to follow her to investigate Andre’s every move in Bright Moon City. She planned to kill the seven-man team after the mission.
However, what Jessica did not expect was that it was her self-righteous arrangement that led her into a helpless situation!
Before they even set off, Jessica did not expect Andre to become so powerful after evolving into a demon. She also did not expect that other than Andre, there was also a terrifying alien race like Vincent in Bright Moon City along with a Zerg that had the strength of a level 60 creature there!
The series of accidents made Jessica feel a sense of powerlessness. She knew that everything she did at that moment was in vain. The Zerg would be able to break her spell sooner or later, and Vincent would be able to kill her after knowing the secrets of the core of the Demon Race!
Jessica could neither fight nor escape at that moment. She really could not think of any other way apart from death.
Suddenly, a flame descended from the sky. Jessica’s eyes lit up. Due to her momentary loss of focus, she had forgotten to defend herself and had completely exposed herself to the attacks of the Zerg.
The falling flame instantly turned into a huge blade as it descended. It struck the head of the Zerg. Due to the violent collision, the Zerg that was originally prepared to stab its pincers downward passively suddenly increased its strength. It pierced through Jessica’s defensive spell and stabbed Jessica!
Ever since the Zerg evolved, it had become very big in size. Its endurance was not only sharp but also very wide. One pincer pierced through Jessica’s chest while the other pierced through her lower abdomen. Its two pincers had directly pierced through Jessica’s chest and abdomen!
The intense pain almost made Jessica faint. She knew that she could not lose consciousness at this time, or else she might never wake up again. Therefore, she could only clench her teeth and raise her spirits. She placed her hands on the pincers and struggled with all her might to break free from the Zerg’s control.
At that moment, the Zerg also let out a mournful howl. When the flames above its head dispersed, Vincent’s figure just happened to appear. Vincent held his Return Journey of the Dead with both hands and pierced through one of the Zerg’s eyes.
This was also the first time that Vincent had caused serious injuries to the Zerg after a long time of fighting!
After blinding the Zerg on one side of its eye, Vincent saw that the Zerg’s pincers had already pierced into Jessica’s chest. Thus, the Zerg did not have the means to attack the top of her head temporarily. Hence, he stood on the back of the Zerg and lowered his head to size up Jessica who was still struggling to save herself.
Vincent looked at Jessica and said with a faint smile, “I didn’t expect that you would still be alive after being stabbed to such a state! Looks like your demon core is not between your chest and abdomen. It’s either in your limbs or in your brain!”
After Jessica heard what Vincent said, a trace of fear flashed across her eyes. She quickly increased her pace to break free from the Zerg’s control.
Finally, under Jessica’s continuous efforts, she used the Zerg’s sharp pincer to cut off her lower body. After regaining her freedom, her upper body did not hesitate at all. She pressed her hands on the ground and quickly ran out of Bright Moon City.
Vincent could not help but sneer when he saw her reaction. He did not expect Jessica to help him with his suspicions. In that case, Jessica’s demon core could only exist in her brain or on her two arms!
Vincent raised his hand and shouted, “Flame Extinguishing Gods!”
Countless tiny black and red fire lines shot out from his body in all directions. Although the fire lines did not ignite any flames, they could be used as a medium for Vincent to move.
Following that, Vincent flashed and instantly disappeared from where he was. He then reappeared in front of Jessica.
“A pillar supporting the sky!”
Without any hesitation, Vincent raised his knife and stabbed it toward Jessica’s head. He believed that unless it was a special situation, Jessica would definitely not keep the demon core in her arms. Therefore, Vincent’s main target was Jessica’s head.
“Bang!”
Jessica’s head instantly exploded. Just as Vincent had guessed, after Jessica’s head shattered, her entire body disintegrated into the purest demonic aura. The aura was rotating rapidly around the shattered head and finally formed a black one-eyed demon core.
Vincent could not help but be startled when he saw this because he felt that the demon core in front of him still had a life force. This meant that Jessica was still not completely dead. As long as she was given time to absorb more dark emotions, she would be able to come back from the dead, just like Andre from before.
“I will definitely not give you any chance to survive!” shouted Vincent in a deep voice.
He then raised his blade and broke the demon core into countless pieces.
However, as the demon core was made of pure demonic aura, it could still gather itself slowly in the air, forming a single eye, despite it being shattered into countless pieces earlier. The eye looked at Vincent coldly.
“Hahaha! You cannot kill me! This is the strength of the Demon Race. If you did not chop off my head forcefully, I would not have realized that the Demon Race is actually an undying and indestructible existence!”
“Undying and indestructible? You’re dreaming!” shouted Vincent coldly in a deep voice. Finally, he took out the Cup of Fate from his storage ring.
The moment the Cup of Fate appeared, Jessica’s eye started to twitch violently. Her incomparably large eye was filled with fear because she could feel the crushing pressure from the cup!
“Let’s see if you’ll die this time!” shouted Vincent coldly in a deep voice as he swung his blade once again toward the demon core.
When the demon core was broken into pieces leaving behind chunks of demonic aura, it was unable to continue to maintain a one-eyed form. This meant that the current demonic aura could not be considered as the demon core.
Although Vincent could not use the Cup of Fate’s killing effect to end Jessica, who was a level 45 creature, he could still use the Cup of Fate to absorb the demonic aura that was scattered in the air and convert it into the purest psionic power!
“No, no, no, you don’t have to do this! Please give me a way out. I’m willing to exchange all my wealth with you. I’ll do anything you want, as long as you don’t…”
Jessica’s pleading voice and her sobbing tone could be heard from within the demonic aura. However, Vincent was completely unmoved by her. Before Jessica could even finish speaking, he had already absorbed all the demonic aura into the Cup of Fate.
After the large amount of demonic aura was converted into pure psionic power, the Cup of Fate immediately replenished the psionic power back into Vincent’s body. Not only did it help to replenish the psionic power that Vincent had used up during the battle earlier, but it also helped him to fill the special space in his lower abdomen that stored psionic power.
At that moment, a psionic vortex was formed in Vincent’s lower abdomen. This was the effect of space charging up. The small vortex seemed to be filled with a powerful suction force. It was constantly sucking the psionic power from the outside world into Vincent’s body. It had once again strengthened his recovery speed. At the same time, the psionic power that was stored in his body had surpassed the other level 40 lifeforms by ten times!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, this was far from enough for Vincent. His current reserves of psionic power were not enough for him.
Vincent felt his body gradually returning to its peak condition. He then immediately opened his eyes and stared ahead with full vigilance.
The Zerg that was blinded in one eye by Vincent noticed that Jessica was already dead. It once again turned its hatred toward Vincent.
This time, Vincent not only humiliated it but also caused real damage to it. As the Zerg had gained further intelligence, it had an indelible hatred toward Vincent!
“Roar!”
The Zerg let out an angry roar into the sky. However, it did not immediately attack Vincent. Instead, it used its pincers to pick up Jessica’s remaining broken leg on the ground. It stuffed it into its mouth and began to chew.
After experiencing many battles and running earlier, the Zerg’s stamina was greatly depleted. Therefore, it had to replenish its stamina by eating. Otherwise, it would not have the confidence to kill Vincent.
After the Zerg ate Jessica’s broken leg, its eyeball that had been stabbed suddenly fell off. It then grew a pitch-black, pupil-less eyeball. The black eyeball was exceptionally huge. It pushed its other seven eyes to the side.
When Vincent saw the scene from afar, he could not help but feel slightly surprised. This was because he could feel that the Zerg was unable to see him through that pitch-black eye. This meant that the eyeball was unlikely to provide vision to the Zerg. However, an eyeball that was unable to provide vision would definitely be accompanied by other powerful abilities!
Therefore, Vincent did not dare to be the slightest bit careless. He looked at the Zerg cautiously. At the same time, Vincent turned his head toward Andre, who was being held back by everyone. Vincent knew that it was not the best time to kill the Zerg, but it was indeed the best time to use the Zerg to kill Andre!
While his thoughts were racing, the Zerg suddenly launched an attack. The black eye on its forehead suddenly shot out a black light, and a black wall was soon erected around Vincent. It blocked every single path of retreat around Vincent, leaving only one path for him to face the Zerg.
“F*ck! You only ate two legs, and you can cast a magic world spell? Looks like you leave me no choice but to fight you alone today. Then, I’ll accept the challenge!” sighed Vincent helplessly.
He then raised his blade and pointed it at the Zerg. However, his gaze was still fixed on Andre, who was fighting with Avril and the others behind the Zerg.
Although they were both intelligent species, the intelligence of the Human Race was clearly far superior to the Zerg.
The most obvious difference was that the Zerg would never hide their true intentions, however, humans could always lie.
When the Zerg noticed that Vincent was preparing to fight, it raised its head and let out a cheer-like roar. It then quickly ran toward Vincent. It raised its tail and shot out spiderwebs at Vincent. It also shot out green venom from its mouth. It was trying to kill Vincent on the spot.
When Vincent saw this, he no longer hesitated. His entire body lit up with flames as he charged straight ahead, brandishing his knife to cut off all the spiderwebs that flew toward him. He dodged the venom that shot toward him and charged directly toward the Zerg.
The Zerg saw that it had missed all its long-range attacks, but it did not howl in anger because of this. As long as Vincent rushed in front of it, it had already achieved its final goal!
The Zerg used its remaining seven eyes to stare at Vincent who was rushing toward it. It raised its two sharp pincers high. It was preparing to fight Vincent for the last time. However, just as Vincent was about ten meters away from the Zerg, he lowered his body and slid along the ground toward the body of the Zerg.
However, in the eyes of the Zerg, Vincent had suddenly disappeared, causing it to be absent-minded for a moment. It did not understand what was going on. How could Vincent, who had not used any methods, suddenly disappear?
As the Zerg had limited intelligence, it could not imagine that it had already lost an eye. Moreover, as its new giant black eye had pushed its other eyes to the side, it caused the Zerg to have a blind spot in its field of vision.
Vincent had relied on his own observation to deduce the blind spot in the Zerg’s field of vision. He took the opportunity to lower his body and disappear from the eyes of the Zerg.
Vincent, who had arrived below the abdomen of the Zerg, raised his Return Journey of the Dead. He used the tip of his knife to slash across the abdomen of the Zerg. Although it did not cut open the abdomen of the Zerg on the spot, it still caused quite a bit of damage to it.
“Roar!”
After feeling the intense pain, the Zerg let out a mournful roar. After that, it turned around to look behind it and discovered that Vincent had already run toward Andre who was on the battlefield far away!
