Chapter 194 - 193: Poison Circle Shrinks
Chapter 194: Chapter 193: Poison Circle Shrinks
“What’s going on!?”
The three lords inside the gate shouted in shock, their faces suddenly changing dramatically.
All of them were startled by the sudden appearance of vines and hurriedly retreated.
The young man who had just seen Lin You through the crack in the gate looked even more horrified, staring up at the top of the wall.
On the top of the dozens of meters tall city wall, a figure stood proudly, looking down at them, then moved his mouth slightly.
“Do it.”
As the voice fell, a vast mass of plants surged into the city through the gate.
Above the sky, five Plant Giant Dragons flew, carrying Mushroom Species on their backs, wrapped with Pea Shooters, with mushrooms and peas shooting rapidly at the three.
“Stop them quickly!”
The man called Brother Meng was the first to regain his senses and immediately shouted to the Titan Giant beside him.
The Tier Eight Titan Giant roared, a mass of red light started glowing on him, and he began expanding rapidly.
Titan Race’s exclusive Skill, Titan Power!
It can significantly enhance one’s power and defense in a short time.
Even the Tier Seven Titans next to him all activated their Skills, heading towards Lin You’s Plant Legion under a red glow.
The powerful oppressive feeling made Lin You on the wall squint his eyes.
“Boom boom boom!”
The falling mushrooms exploded violently on the Titan Giant’s body, but only caused them minor injuries.
At this time, the other two lords also snapped out of their shock and immediately gave orders to the species beside them.
“Go! Block the gate for me!”
However, just as they spoke, a loud roar suddenly echoed from the passage of the gate.
Including the Cyan Rattan beside Lin You, all the plants were enveloped in a red glow.
And in the plant crowd, a pitch-black willow emitted a green glow, transforming into a ring of aura that pulsated outward.
Barbaric Roar’s 30% Attribute, combined with Soul Incarnation’s 8% Attribute and 10% Recovery Speed, plus Lingxi’s Affinity Aura, instantly elevated all the plants’ Attributes to a terrifying level!
It only took a brief moment for the species of the three to retreat continuously, falling under the plants’ attacks.
Even the Tier Eight Titan Giant, under Cyan Rattan’s vine attacks, could hardly resist, then was cut open by the leaves controlled by Lingxi, roaring repeatedly.
“How is this possible!!”
Brother Meng’s eyes were wide with rage, his mind filled with waves of shock.
His Tier Eight species had no power to resist under the opponent’s attack!
Who exactly is the opponent!?
Brother Meng looked shocked towards the top of the wall, and when he saw the Cyan Rattan and Lingxi beside Lin You, his heart violently shook.
Tier Eight!
There were actually two Tier Eights!
Just cultivating one Tier Eight had already consumed a great deal of resources and effort, but there was someone even more formidable, directly cultivating two Tier Eights!
But that wasn’t the most important issue.
What he found most incredible was the size of that plant.
How could a Tier Eight species have such an exaggerated size?
It could even easily climb over the dozens of meters high wall!
Seeing his species continuously defeated, more and more giant vines appearing in the city, Brother Meng finally considered retreating.
After glancing deeply at Lin You on the wall, he immediately shouted to his two companions beside him.
“Retreat!”
The two people who had been frightened by Lin You’s terrifying power were instantly revitalized, hurriedly gathering their species to escape into the city.
However, on their escape route, many species were again captured by vines and killed on the spot.
Yet, those three relied on the wall’s obstruction to dodge Lin You’s pursuit, disappearing quickly into the crowded city architecture.
“Alright, no need to chase.”
Lin You on the wall directly stopped the team, his eyes burning as he watched the direction the three disappeared into.
He hadn’t expected to encounter lords with Tier Eight species so quickly, and what’s more, Titans with exceptionally pure bloodlines.
This battlefield was indeed well-known for a reason.
However, he wasn’t worried.
Anyway, the poisonous circle would shrink daily, eventually leading to another encounter.
What was most important to him now was to quickly find the Source of the Plague and obtain the battlefield mission reward.
After all, it was a mission that spanned the entire battlefield, with amazing rewards, possibly even surpassing the ultimate Secret Treasure on the last day!
Thinking this, he said to the plants beside him: “Let’s go, enter the city first.”
With that, the plants gradually passed through the gate into the city, and he followed Cyan Rattan over the wall, arriving on the wide street.
Looking around, just as he expected, the poisonous mist inside the city had completely dispersed, leaving only rows of dilapidated ancient-style buildings and corpses scattered everywhere.
There were both species and zombies, all showing signs of battle.
It seemed many had already entered the city before him, searching for the Source of the Plague.
Wasting no time, recognizing the direction, he led the plants further into the city.
…
On the other side.
Brother Meng and the others, who escaped from the vicinity of the gate, only stopped slowly after reaching another street.
Looking back at those with them, only fifty or sixty species remained, nearly half reduced, making them both fearful and shocked, their expressions becoming solemn.
“I didn’t expect there to be such a fearsome lord in this battlefield.”
Meng Kun, full name Brother Meng, was a well-known figure even among Tier Six Lords in the Desolate Ancient Realm, yet he hadn’t expected to end up in such a dire situation.
“Big Brother, do you think that guy could be Lin You, the one who ranked first?” said the young man with a crew cut.
“It should be. With my Tier Eight Titan Giant strength, I can at least make it to the top ten in the number one battlefield. Even with the two of you, we lost so badly; it couldn’t be anyone else but him!”
Meng Kun said almost with certainty.
“So what should we do? Should we inform the others?” another young man asked.
“Inform? Why inform them? It’s better if those guys don’t know,” Meng Kun’s expression gradually turned sinister.
“Big Brother means… you want them to fight each other?”
“No, you’re wrong. Lin You’s strength far exceeds our expectations. The only ones getting bitten will be those cocky fools who dared to compete with me for treasure in the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms last time; now it’s their turn to suffer a loss.”
Meng Kun, as a Lord, was almost always teleported into the number one battlefield and had long been acquainted with Tier Six prodigies from other realms, with whom many disputes had occurred.
Having suffered a significant loss himself today, how could he not want his few competitors to experience the same?
Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to feel balanced in his heart.
Thinking of this, he set off again, bringing his two underlings and species towards the city, distancing themselves from Lin You’s area.
As time passed,
more and more Lords began gathering outside Dayan City, pouring in from the city gates in four directions.
Fighting within and outside the city occurred more frequently, with constant clashes.
Even when Lin You was exploring the streets, he encountered and defeated two Lords from other realms.
Continuing forward while scouting, the Plant Legion led by Lin You quickly reached the deeper part of the city.
It must be said,
Dayan City is truly vast, even larger than imagined.
Everywhere one looked, there were rows upon rows of ancient-style buildings.
Taverns, inns, pharmacies, pawn shops, teahouses… everything one could imagine.
Even the roadside was filled with various overturned vendor carts, looking somewhat decayed.
Beside them were numerous bloodstains that were shocking to see, making the entire street appear both deep and terrifying.
Moreover, the further in they went, the more zombies appeared, sometimes even encountering extremely fast zombie dogs and other mutated livestock.
This forced Lin You to slow down to clear zombies along the way, while exploring the secrets of the city.
As he delved deeper into the city.
On another street,
the hurried Meng Kun and his group finally encountered other Lords.
“Oh? Isn’t this Meng Kun from the Desolate Ancient Realm? Running so fast, are you in a hurry to reincarnate?”
A voice filled with sarcasm rang out from the end of the street.
A man dressed in white, accompanied by a group of floating, dark figures, slowly emerged.
“Wu Zongming?”
Upon seeing the newcomer, Meng Kun’s expression darkened, and he immediately halted.
Beside the man in white were over a hundred Resentful Spirit Class Blade Spirit species.
Each species carried a large, pitch-black blade, appearing extremely sharp and somewhat illusory.
But what caught Meng Kun’s attention most was the gigantic Resentful Spirit holding a scythe next to Wu Zongming.
Like his Titan Giant, it was also a Tier Eight existence!
If it were any other time, he wouldn’t have feared facing his opponent; he might even want a significant fight.
But now, with the heavy loss of his species, he naturally became more cautious.
He looked directly at Wu Zongming, scoffing, “I didn’t expect to run into you here. Has your Rakshasa Realm run out of people? Been here twice and still not ascended to Tier Seven.”
“Aren’t you also stuck at Tier Six?”
Wu Zongming looked at Meng Kun indifferently, simultaneously observing the situation around Meng Kun.
The more he observed, the more shocked he became.
He knew Meng Kun’s strength, almost on par with his own, belonging to the top tier in the Tier Six battlefield.
Yet, despite that strength, Meng Kun looked so battered, with his species halved; could something have happened?
Shocked, he casually remarked, “You don’t seem to be in good shape; what happened? Got into a fight with those other guys?”
“That’s none of your business; you didn’t just come to chat, did you?”
Meng Kun interrupted Wu Zongming.
“Since you already know, why ask more?”
Wu Zongming wasn’t annoyed by the interruption and even smiled faintly.
Meng Kun, hearing this, let his gaze drop once more.
“Hmph, don’t think I don’t know your intentions; stuck at Tier Six deliberately, all for that item.”
“Since you know, there’s no need for more words; when the time comes, let’s rely on our skills.”
“Fine, let’s rely on skills, we’ll wait and see!”
Leaving those words behind, Meng Kun left with his species and two underlings, paying no heed to Wu Zongming blocking the way.
Wu Zongming glanced at the Tier Eight Titan Giant and the two companions beside Meng Kun, ultimately refraining from making a move.
He didn’t have full confidence in stopping Meng Kun.
Thus, after a hasty encounter, they parted without any incident occurring.
As more Lords flooded into the city,
a notification finally rang in the minds of all the Lords:
[Attention Lords, the deadly plague is about to contract.]
[At that time, the battlefield area will shrink to half its original size; please prepare accordingly.]
