Chapter 72 – One-Eye the Great Demon King
Volume 2: Battlefield Between Two Worlds
"Is Fate Struggle active?"
"Woof."
"The effect is very strong!"
"Can you calculate how much it's increased?"
"Woof."
"About a quarter."
Wen Yu calculated silently; that would mean a Physical Attribute of over 100 points.
"So, are you ready for battle?"
"Woof."
"Everything is ready, awaiting the Boss's orders!"
"Haha, talking to you is really interesting. Well then, Old Driver, get ready to roll."
"Woof, woof-woof."
"The Old Driver is starting the engine; passengers, please fasten your seatbelts."
"You should say that to them, but they can't understand you!"
"Whimper."
One-Eye immediately hung his head, no longer barking.
Seeing the confused and judgmental looks from the people around him-as if they were looking at a fool-Wen Yu felt a bit embarrassed.
"Ahem."
Wen Yu calmly cleared his throat and spoke with a wide smile.
"Let me give you a simple translation. My dog said: 'The Treasure Box belongs to my master. Anyone who disagrees… MUST! DIE!'"
"Well, let's start with the sniper! Consider it payback for those attacks that nearly killed me several times!"
As soon as he finished speaking, One-Eye charged forward!
A violent, bloody wind rushed toward him. Jiang Wentao felt One-Eye's killing intent so intensely that his entire body trembled.
His Beast Instinct constantly warned him: "Run! You'll die!"
However, his teammates were behind him!
So, Jiang Wentao clenched his fists and charged forward without looking back!
Clearly, as a Level 2 Class Holder, Jiang Wentao's Physical Attribute was less than 50 points!
Clearly, the Beast Instinct ability was not enough for Jiang Wentao to bridge a gap of more than double the Physical Attribute.
Clearly, Jiang Wentao could not hold One-Eye back.
He lost!
His seemingly strong body was like a ragdoll in front of One-Eye. He was swatted away by a single paw. Before Jiang Wentao even hit the ground, he sprayed a mouthful of blood!
Then, the roar of guns rang out.
Jiang Wentao's obstruction wasn't entirely useless.
In the brief moment of contact between One-Eye and Jiang Wentao, Monkey had prepared his attack!
The modified Gatling in his hands roared-the sound of the motor starting up.
Then, a rain of bullets poured down!
9mm rounds pelted One-Eye's body frantically.
Although they could only inflict minor wounds on One-Eye, the massive stopping power caused him to stumble, halting his charge.
Then, the final link of the trio, Big Bear, launched his attack.
A gunshot like a grenade explosion echoed through the sky.
Explosive Bullet (Grade C, Active Skill): Adds damage to a gun's bullet and attaches an explosive effect upon hitting the target. Can only be applied to one bullet at a time!
With a gun modified by a Firearms Expert and support-type Class Holders, combined with a Class Holder's skill, the lethality of this strike was off the charts!
The sniper round hit One-Eye squarely in the head.
One-Eye's skull could not withstand such a massive blow; a small portion of his head was blown apart instantly!
Fragments of bone and flesh splattered everywhere. One of his large, hideous dog eyes even rolled twice and landed right at Monkey's feet.
It wasn't over yet. A burst of flame immediately enveloped One-Eye's head-the effect of the skill.
Fire and gunsmoke shrouded One-Eye's body, cutting off everyone's line of sight.
Monkey breathed a slight sigh of relief. Raising an eyebrow, he looked at Wen Yu with a face full of ridicule.
"Your dog isn't all that much, is it?"
Mocking words tumbled from Monkey's mouth, but Wen Yu didn't react in the slightest.
Calmly lighting a cigarette, Wen Yu watched the spot where One-Eye was, currently enveloped in thick smoke, with a smile playing on his lips.
"That hit… wasn't light!"
It was more than just 'not light'; it was severe.
It was a fatal wound-so fatal that it caused One-Eye's Physical Attributes to skyrocket directly above 200 Points!
And a Physical Attribute of over 200 Points was already the strength of a Level 4!
As the thick smoke dissipated, One-Eye's hideous and terrifying form appeared before everyone's eyes.
Half of its head had vanished, leaving its grayish-white brains clearly exposed to the air.
However, One-Eye did not fall. Instead, it stuck out its scarlet tongue and licked the brain matter that had splattered onto its face.
"Still alive? How can it still be alive?"
Monkey's voice rang out in a dazed, panicked shriek.
"Hehe, why don't you have some fun with my dog?"
As soon as Wen Yu finished speaking, One-Eye's figure vanished!
By the time it reappeared, One-Eye was already standing exactly where Monkey had been.
As for Monkey, he had been sent flying into the distance by the force of One-Eye's collision.
Bones shattered throughout his body with explosive pops. Monkey's body looked as if it had been crushed by a truck; there was no telling how many bones were broken as he lay paralyzed on the ground, motionless!
Only then did the thunderous boom and the shockwave erupt from the spot where One-Eye had just been standing!
One-Eye's speed had broken… the speed of sound!
Of the trio, the only one left standing was Big Bear.
Watching One-Eye stare at him expressionlessly, cold sweat poured down Big Bear's forehead incessantly.
He raised the sniper rifle in his hands with extreme speed, pressing it directly against One-Eye's forehead.
Then, a scream rang out. Big Bear's left hand, along with the sniper rifle, was bitten to pieces by One-Eye!
In the blink of an eye, Jiang Wentao's trio had completely lost their combat effectiveness.
"Kill them!"
Wen Yu exhaled a smoke ring and issued the command directly.
One-Eye flashed Big Bear a hideous grin. The smile pulled at the wound on its head, causing the brain matter inside to twitch-a sight that made onlookers want to retch.
Then, its massive maw lunged straight for Big Bear!
Crunch!
A sound echoed.
However, it wasn't the sound of Big Bear's skull shattering. One-Eye's jaws had clamped down directly onto a semi-transparent Light Shield!
[Bright Light Shield (A-Rank Item): Upon activation, deploys a protective shield around the user. The defensive effect grants immunity to damage below Level 5. Duration: 10 minutes. While the shield is active, the user cannot launch attacks from within the Bright Light Shield!]
One-Eye stared blankly at the Giant Egg that had appeared in front of it and took another bite!
Still, it couldn't bite through!
While One-Eye was struggling with the Bright Light Shield, Big Bear tore open another scroll.
[Small Team Assembly Scroll (B-Rank Item): Teleports pre-designated teammates to the user's side. Maximum capacity: 5 people.]
With a flash of light, Jiang Wentao and the half-dead Monkey appeared inside the Bright Light Shield.
Jiang Wentao quickly opened his Spatial Ring, pulled out a bottle of potion glowing with a red light, pried Monkey's mouth open, and poured it down.
Wen Yu had never seen this type of potion before, but judging by the speed at which Monkey's wounds were knitting back together, it was definitely a high-grade Healing Potion or better.
