Chapter 197: Chapter 196: Seeking Shelter
Long Caesar didn’t notice the change in Lin You’s gaze.
Seeing him remain silent for a long time, his face suddenly darkened.
“Human, you…”
However, as soon as he spoke, a commotion suddenly broke out among the other Half-Dragon Men nearby, all looking around in fear.
Only to see that around the street they were on, unbeknownst to anyone, a large number of plants had grown, along with giant vines.
Even inside the nearby buildings, a large number of Cannibal Flowers emerged, surrounding them.
“What’s happening? Why are there suddenly so many plants!?”
The Half-Dragon Men shouted in astonishment, quickly summoning their species to their side.
The interrupted Long Caesar also widened his eyes, looking at the Cyan Rattan by Lin You’s side and Lingxi flying in the air.
When he felt the aura emanating from them, he shuddered all over.
Tier Eight Species!
This human actually has two at Tier Eight!
This time, Long Caesar was truly astonished.
He completely didn’t expect this nondescript human to be so terrifyingly powerful.
Even the number of those Cannibal Flowers was more than all their species combined!
Immediately.
He thought of something, and his face suddenly changed.
“You are that Lin You!”
A shout burst out of his mouth.
Even the few Half-Dragon Men companions beside him cast shocked glances.
Weren’t they here this time to look for the number one on the chart, Lin You?
“Congratulations, you guessed right.”
Lin You’s lips slightly curled up, but in the next moment, his expression turned cold.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
The sound of something cutting through the air arose, and giant vines suddenly shot out, surrounding Long Caesar and the others from all directions.
This time, Lin You got smart, directly letting Cyan Rattan and Lingxi use plants to encircle the entire block, blocking all their escape routes.
Simultaneously, the vines of those Banshee Plants crawled on the ground or burrowed underground, binding the Sub-dragon Species around with lightning speed, directly targeting the Half-Dragon Lords.
“Quick! Block them!”
Long Caesar and the other Half-Dragon Men shouted in alarm, their faces full of fear.
They never imagined that Lin You’s power was truly as frightening as the rumors said.
No!
It was even more formidable by several times!
In just the blink of an eye, the species protecting them were all overwhelmed by the vines and Immortal Flowers, falling to the ground in large swathes.
As for the other Plant Species, they mingled among the Immortal Flowers, led by the Ancient War Tree with Cyan Gang and two Tier Eight Tree Demons, crushing their way through.
Nearby, Explosive Mushrooms and Sharp Spike Balls were continually thrown, causing a series of explosions on the street.
Even more deadly,
after their species fell, new Cannibal Flowers grew, directly joining the battle.
“Roar!!”
The Tier Eight Earth Dragon beside Long Caesar roared in anger, charging wildly through the Death Flower Sea, then opened its mouth and spewed out scorching Dragon Flame, instantly burning a large area of Immortal Flowers to ashes.
However, before they could rejoice, large swathes of Immortal Flowers emerged again, surrounding the Tier Eight Earth Dragon and biting its body incessantly.
The Tier Eight Earth Dragon roared repeatedly, but couldn’t escape from the Death Flower Sea, and in a short while, was bitten all over with wounds.
The ever-flowing blood further fueled the bloodlust of the Immortal Flowers and Mad Beldams, who frantically attacked.
“No! This is impossible!”
Long Caesar shook his head while retreating, eyes wide with terror.
But before he could retreat a few steps, he found the entire street had been completely sealed by plants and vines.
Everywhere his gaze reached was filled with wildly growing twisted plants.
Even in the sky.
Vines began to spread up, constructing the entire street into an incredibly terrifying plant cage!
“!!!”
Long Caesar was utterly shocked.
What kind of monster could instantly create such an exaggerated and vast scene.
After all, he was just one person!
Could this really be the level a Tier Six Lord could reach!?
However, what answered him were the countless vines and Death Flower Sea.
Finally, as his spirit shook to the core, they broke through his species defense line, directly closing in on him and several other Half-Dragon Lords.
Just at this time.
On the distant street, many Lords who had heard the commotion arrived.
Each of them was utterly shocked, staring at the terrifying plants covering the entire block.
“What monstrous plants!”
“How could there be plants this big!?”
“The entire street is completely sealed off!”
“The sound of battle seems to be coming from inside, someone is fighting in there!”
The Lords exclaimed repeatedly, all standing frozen in place.
They didn’t even dare to get any closer.
And just as they observed from afar.
A few shrill screams suddenly rang out from inside the plant cage, and the sound of battle stopped abruptly at that moment.
The people’s hearts skipped a beat. Before they could react, the plants covering the entire block began to quickly retract, gradually revealing the scene inside.
When they saw the corpses strewn about and the lone standing figure, their faces changed dramatically.
“That’s… Dragon Venerable Realm’s Long Caesar and his companions!!”
Immediately, someone recognized the identities of the bodies on the ground and couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.
With these words, the other lords were all shocked.
Who is Long Caesar?
He’s a fierce individual ranked in the top ten on the Killing Chart and fourth on the Magic Ability Chart!
Just died like that?
In shock, a group of lords quickly opened the rankings to take a look.
Soon after, each one widened their eyes.
“Really… disappeared… ”
“Dead! Long Caesar is really dead!”
“How is this possible!”
The lords once again looked far toward Lin You, their hearts surging with turmoil.
Not daring to linger, they fled with their species, so fast as if fearing that Lin You would catch up if they delayed even a moment.
This news spread like a whirlwind across the entire eastern region of the city, causing a stir within the city.
“What did you say? That Long Caesar was killed!?”
“Absolutely true! I saw it with my own eyes, and it was done by one person, the whole Dragon Venerable Realm team was wiped out!”
“Hiss! Wiped out!?”
“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s get out of here, it would be a disaster to run into that monster.”
…
Similar conversations continued to occur in every corner of the eastern region of the city.
Whether they were those who came to hunt down Lin You or the lords exploring nearby, all were frightened by the news and hurriedly fled the area.
And this time, lords from all realms finally deeply realized the terror of Lin You, not daring to provoke him lightly.
They’re not fools; even if there’s no concrete evidence that it was Lin You who acted, they could still guess a little from the changes in the rankings.
After all, Long Caesar carried over two hundred thousand Magic Energy points with him.
And after he and a few lords from the Dragon Venerable Realm were killed, Lin You’s Magic Energy shot up to a staggering 1.13 million.
Even a fool can figure out who did it.
Furthermore, with the continuous spread of the news, lords from all realms finally learned that Lin You’s species was Plant Type, and each began to become vigilant.
“Luo Lei, did you hear that? They say that Lin You is Plant Type; didn’t you say the Lin You you know is also Plant Type?”
In a certain underground wine cellar in the outer city, Luo Lei and another hid there, eavesdropping through the cracks on the conversation of the passing lords outside, and they also heard the news about Lin You.
Luo Lei’s heart trembled, and he couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
“It shouldn’t be possible, the Lin You I know only arrived about a month ahead of me.”
“But even if it’s not, he’s still from the Primordial Realm. Why don’t we go to him for protection?” The young man beside Luo Lei spoke excitedly.
The young man was named Xu Xiangdong, just like Luo Lei, a newly arrived lord on the Primordial Continent.
If they could receive Lin You’s protection, they would surely be much safer, not having to worry about being killed by lords of other realms.
Not to mention gaining more resources, but at least they could survive these three days and leave the battleground alive.
Hearing his suggestion, Luo Lei was somewhat moved.
After all, on their journey here, they encountered countless dangers and ran into numerous lords from other realms.
They barely managed to escape and hide in this place.
It could really be said they were in utter desperation.
And this was just the first day.
He didn’t dare imagine what dangers lay before them once the poisonous circle shrunk twice more.
“So, have you decided?” Xu Xiangdong asked again.
“I think it’s doable.” Luo Lei nodded, “But the city is filled with lords from other realms. Approaching will be no easy task.”
“Then what should we do?”
“There’s no other way, the poisonous circle shrinks tomorrow, staying here is a dead end, we can only take a gamble.”
“Alright, let’s take a gamble. It’s death either way!”
Gradually, their gazes grew firm.
After preparing a bit in the wine cellar and checking the empty streets outside, they took their species and left the wine cellar, hurrying towards the eastern part of the city.
It was the first time they walked so openly on the streets, and inevitably, they felt a bit nervous.
They stopped to carefully observe their surroundings at almost every interval, not daring to make too much noise for fear of attracting other lords.
Otherwise, with their strength, they would have little chance to resist.
Thus, they moved cautiously while scouting ahead.
Soon, they left their hiding street and found themselves on another road leading to the inner city.
And their hearts gradually rose to their throats.
Because crossing this road would lead them to the inner city district, increasing the likelihood of encountering other lords.
Sure enough, as they crossed the street and reached the end, a sudden clatter of footsteps sounded from afar.
“Damn it! Someone’s coming, hide quickly!”
Luo Lei’s face changed, immediately ducking into a shadowy alley with his species.
Xu Xiangdong was also quick, darting into a nearby shop to hide.
And in no time, three lords from other realms appeared in the spot they had just vacated, accompanied by a large group of Tier Seven Species.
Hiding, the two were startled, holding their breath, not daring to make a sound.
Then, they heard one of the lords say suddenly, “It’s getting harder to find lords weaker than us; can’t even earn more Magic Energy.”
As he spoke, he gradually stopped, turning his back to where they were hiding.
“Of course, the weaker ones are almost wiped out, stumbling on them again won’t be easy,”
Responding was a Beast Type lord with canine species.
And as he spoke, he stood right in front of where the two were hiding, an imperceptible smile on his face.
Luo Lei’s and his companion’s hearts tightened further, not daring to make the slightest sound.
Yet the next moment, their faces suddenly changed.
For, without knowing when, several black canine species had appeared above their hiding spot, glaring down at them.
“Not good! We’ve been discovered! Run!”
