Chapter 443: Sacrifice for Survival

POSTED ON AUGUST 8, 2023 BY KEN

“Hehe, surprise mtfk!”

Looking at Evil Zen’s expression of surprise and anger.

Fang Linyan, who was hiding a hundred meters away, couldn’t help but reveal a smile.

After he rushed to the battlefield, he had been observing Evil Zen, studying his words and actions.

The previous battles were mainly against beastkins like Zhu Ganglie, so Evil Zen of course went all out.

As long as someone was taunting in front, Evil Zen’s acupoint blast was a magical skill against plot characters, so he used it a lot before.

Needless to say, Fang Linyan had figured out the details of his skills. To the extent that if Evil Zen wiggled his ass, Fang Linyan knew he was going to shit.

So, after Fang Linyan saw the black light emerging from Evil Zen’s finger,

He could accurately predict that this guy would use the finishing move to interrupt Si Nan’s desperate big move.

This was the perfect opportunity that Fang Linyan had been waiting for!

So, under Fang Linyan’s control, [Mechanical Gyrfalcon] almost swooped down, following the behind flash grenade.

Then when everyone was flashed, [Mechanical Gyrfalcon] took the initiative to hit Evil Zen’s finger…… This was shamelessly seeking trouble!

Due to the lack of the accumulation of acupoint blast counters before and summon like the [Mechanical Gyrfalcon] would also be protected by PVP law,

Evil Zen’s poke with high hopes, after calculating various damage reductions, the actual damage was only 31 points…

What’s more, after being interfered by Fang Linyan, Evil Zen, the only one who could interrupt Si Nan, failed. This meant Si Nan had successfully ingested the pills!

After Si Nan took the pills, he felt a scalding heat gushing out from his lower abdomen.

Blue veins popped out on his forehead, his heartbeat was even more rapid, and the pain all over his body disappeared.

The feeling that this broken body gave him at this time was that an incomparably exuberant energy was filling his body. It almost made him feel like he was going to explode.

Not only that, his body exuded heat waves around; there was a faint fiery red wings phantom on his back.

In such a situation where a release was urgently needed, Si Nan let out a long shout and launched a chained fireball.

At the same time, he raised his left hand high, where a flame saber was formed.

After swiping down, an enemy 20 meters away was blown away by the slash with smoke rising from his body.

Under Si Nan’s sudden outburst, only 5 minutes later, 2 of the contractors besieging him died.

There were also 3 people, who either triggered the life-saving team skill or exhausted medicines, running away directly.

Evil Zen was also frightened and angry. He didn’t expect that a sure win battle was interrupted by Wrench who appeared out of nowhere.

He regretted it very much now. He wished to turn back time and go back to the time when they met at the ferry.

If he had known that this person was so difficult to deal with, he should have crushed him to death like a bedbug at all costs!

Soon, Evil Zen discovered a very terrible thing.

After taking the pills, Si Nan actually showed bitter hatred in his eyes and chased him desperately!

At this time, he really felt unlucky!

However, this was also very normal. Who let him show up with Daisy, acting like the mastermind behind the scenes?

Si Nan knew that he would die in an hour, so he must hunt down the culprit!

Now Elf Archer Daisy ran away and Evil Zen didn’t run as fast as Daisy, who else would Si Nana chase?

At this time, Evil Zen was fighting and retreating, but he couldn’t get rid of Si Nan’s frantic pursuit at all.

Even worse, after discovering that he was alone, Fang Linyan also began to unscrupulously use a rifle to attack him from a distance.

At the beginning, Evil Zen found that even if the enemy’s shot hit him, the damage value was very small, so he couldn’t help but feel a little contempt in his mind.

Until he suddenly felt that he was often in a slow state and was occasionally knocked back, he realized that the enemy’s idea was to kill him with Si Nan!

As long as Si Nan who was chasing him was given a chance, he had enough strength to threaten his life.

In this situation, Evil Zen knew that it was impossible for him not to escape unscathed now.

He was also a decisive person. As he took a deep breath, a bloody light flashed. He cut off his left arm directly at the shoulder, then he threw it forcefully into the sky.

Immediately, the severed left arm was rolling in the air, and the clothes on it immediately burned up, revealing a large patch of black ghost head tattoo on the thick arm.

If one looked carefully, he could find that the content was actually a scene of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons!

While falling to the ground, the flesh and blood of Evil Zen’s left arm quickly turned into dust bit by bit.

But the tattoo of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons suddenly became vivid, from dull to lifelike. Finally, the hideous 100 ghosts appeared in this world one after another.

They roared fiercely while rushing toward Fang Linyan and Si Nan in the distance!

Evil Zen took the opportunity to escape. At the same time, his heart was bleeding.

Because in addition to cutting off his own arm to activate the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, his 5 main attributes would also be deducted!

If the summoned 100 ghosts successfully killed a large number of living creatures and gained enough blood, then these 5 main attributes would be completely returned.

However, if the summoned 100 ghosts were not satisfied, then part of the main attribute points would be deducted.

If the 100 ghosts not only did not get any blood food, but lost something instead, they would recoil on the caster. The 5 main attributes would be permanently deducted.

Even if Evil Zen released the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons on Zhu Ganglie, the loss probably wouldn’t be too great.

Because Zhu Ganglie was not good at dealing with ghosts and the like.

However, Si Nan was originally a member of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau, and the tao spells he practiced were also about subduing beastkins and eliminating demons.

Facing these powerful ghosts that suddenly appeared, it was like a cat meeting a mouse. The ghosts were restrained to the extreme.

Fang Linyan also played it smart. While shouting ‘Sir, I’m here for help!’, he launched [Dragon Cough Flash]’s powerful crowd control effect to deal with ghosts.

Although Si Nan had a weird temper, he also saw that Fang Linyan controlled his “mechanism bird” to block the enemy’s finger skillfully.

He clearly felt that Evil Zen’s finger could actually cause serious damage to him at that time! So his attitude toward Fang Linyan was quite friendly.

After helping to kill these ghosts one by one, Si Nan let out a long mouthful of bloody breath before saying to Fang Linyan,

“May I have your name?”

Fang Linyan said respectfully,

“Sir, my name is Fang Xiaoqi.”

When Fang Linyan looked at Si Nan at a close distance, he found that Si Nan was probably only in his thirties. He looked old-fashioned because of the taoist robe and the white beard.

Si Nan said sadly,

“I have taken 3 Crimson Dragon Pills in a row, and now I only have about 45 minutes before I burn into ashes by my inner fire.”

“But I came out too sudden this time. There are too many things I haven’t explained clearly before I die, so I want to make a deal with you before that.”

When Fang Linyan heard the deal, his heart moved,

“Sir, what kind of deal is it?”

Si Nan said,

“I’m the disciple of Zhong Nan, good at observing qi. There is an inexplicable calamity lingering around your body. It’s mighty like the way of heaven, and it will erupt regularly!”

“If I’m not mistaken, there was an eruption about half an hour ago. The next eruption will be after 45 minutes.”

Hearing what Si Nan said, Fang Linyan immediately realized that what he said should be the blue light beam that rose into the sky when side mission: Genocide reached a certain time limit.

He was overjoyed, and he said,

“Yes. Sir, do you have a way to get rid of this calamity on me?”

Si Nan said straightforwardly,

“The calamity on you is completely natural, containing the way of heaven… it can’t be removed.”

Fang Linyan almost spat out a mouthful of blood after hearing this. Then why the fuck are you telling me this!?

Fortunately, Si Nan added again,

“However, now that I have temporarily advanced to the Golden Pellet Stage through the pills, I can come up with a tricky way if I use all my power”

“I can inject my own blood essence and draw you a secret Golden Crow Calamity Transition Talisman.”

“After you wear this talisman, you can temporarily transfer the calamity on your body to other living objects.”

“The object transferred can be a person, a livestock, or a tree, as long as it has life.”

“However, if I’m not mistaken about your calamity, it will intensify every once in a while. The last four hours will be the peak of the eruption.”

“At that time, the Golden Crow Calamity Transition Talisman I drew may no longer be effective. You must find my senior apprentice. The wooden puppet he made, combined with the Golden Crow Calamity Transition Talisman, may be able to completely resolve your calamity.”
