Nightmare’s Call

Chapter 385: The Attack: Part 2

Strange symbols flashed across the surface of the dark green chains. The chains locked Lin Sheng in the middle tightly and the great pulling force fixed Lin Sheng in place, unable to move.

“It’s powerful. Too bad you met me…” Slowly, little by little, Lin Sheng raised his right arm.

The power of the holy soil had doubled at this moment. The terrifying power, coupled with the divine power in the blood of the Rock Dragon, led to a qualitative change in Lin Sheng.

*Bang!*

The ground on one side of the chain suddenly burst apart because it could not withstand the great force pull.

*Bang! Bang!*

Then the surrounding houses, buildings, walls, all the things connected to the chains began to break and burst.

Lin Sheng slowly lifted his foot and stepped forward.

Almost at the same time, all the chains around were stretched to the limit and could break at any moment.

The four brothers looked grave. Their hands and feet were constantly bursting with dark energy, trying to fix their position.

When the dark energy erupted, it greatly increased the weight of the Soullock Chain, so that no one could easily drag or move the chain. And the Soullock Chain was essentially the absolute link to the dark energy. The Soullock Chain would only break when the person controlling it was dead. This was a strong power rooted in the dark energy of the person who controlled the chain.

It was a very creepy feature, but it was something they were always proud of. And it was the reason why they had successfully assassinated many powerful men. But now, this feature had become a nightmare they never had.

*Bang! Bang! Bang!*

In an instant, Lin Sheng stepped forward. Dozens of the chains broke free from where they were connected and exploded at the same time. Lin Sheng dragged the chains and moved forward along with the four brothers.

The dark green chains dragged on the ground behind Lin Sheng like long hair, making a loud noise.

“No… It’s impossible!”

“How can humans have this level of power!?”

The four brothers could not believe it. They were all sweating, trying to straighten the chain to fix Lin Sheng in place, but instead, they were dragged forward easily by Lin Sheng, and it’s getting faster and faster.

Suddenly Lin Sheng grasped the four chains connecting them, sending them flying forward.

Before they could react, a white light cut across the air.

They were still in the air, but their waists had been cut in half.

*Bam!*

The four bodies smashed into a building, completely silent. However, the Soullock Chain they released was still there tying Lin Sheng up. It had not disappeared yet.

Lin Sheng looked at the chain with an odd expression on his face. He grabbed the chain, letting a fountain of sacred power flow from his body and covering the chain. The sacred power cleansed the chain in an instant.

“Interesting. The evil energy released was somehow transformed into another physical substance.”

The sacred power had removed all the dark energy from the chain, but the chain still existed. He just ignored it and stamped on the ground.

*Bang!*

The ground exploded and his whole body burst out, hurtling toward the battle ahead.

…

In the ice blue conference room.

Countless sharp ice spikes suddenly stabbed Nikos and the other two from all directions.

They wouldn’t be so nervous if those were just regular ice spikes. But the fact was, each of the ice spikes was completely out of their senses. It’s like they didn’t exist. All the ice spikes, though clearly visible in shape, couldn’t be sensed by them as if they were not real.

As a Palatinate, Tenko Kasumi would never release meaningless illusion. These ice spikes could not be fake. They might even be extremely powerful ice spikes.

Nikos stopped thinking and quickly activated the defense system.

A dark cloud rose above him. Lightning flashed in the dark cloud, thunder rolled, and suddenly drops of transparent rain fell from the dark cloud. The drops grew larger and thicker, and soon it began to rain cats and dogs, completely enveloping the three of them.

Soon the first spike hit the rain curtain head-on.

*Clang!*

The spike crumbled into countless ice blue flakes. The rain curtain also slightly sunken in.

*Clang! Clang! Clang!*

Countless spikes, one after another, swarmed towards the rain curtain. The pitter-patter of the rain was getting more and more intense.

Tenko Kasumi held the magic sword, looking at the stalemate situation in front of her, and slowly walking towards the rain curtain. As she passed, all the blue spikes spontaneously skirted around her and continued to rush towards the rain curtain.

“Divine Retribution: Terminus Slash.” Slowly she lifted the sword, her red hair suddenly lengthening, her eyes shining with a fierce, glaring blood light.

The huge sword began to change at the same time. The blade of the sword seemed to freeze, forming large sheets of sharp purple ice crystals. The ice crystals began to spread thickly over the sword, from the blade to the hilt, all the way to Tenko Kasumi’s palm, arm, and the entire body.

In the twinkling of an eye, lots of purple crystal spikes shot up behind her. Those spikes looked like wings, no… more like armor.

“Atomic Blizzard, Hellfrost Blade!”

*Boom!!!*

In a flash, the whole ice crystal sword disintegrated. Countless purples crystals turned into countless sharp blades and poured toward the three in the rain curtain.

“Go!!” Nikos’s face changed dramatically. Strange lines appeared on his face and two beams of blue lightning shot out of his eyes.

The blue lightning beams broke through the rain curtain and ran straight into the countless purple crystals.

The blue lightning beams were actually a powerful ability he was proud of. Unfortunately, at this moment, this powerful ability was particularly vulnerable in the face of Tenko Kasumi. The purple crystal blade was now well beyond his limits, far, far more powerful than before!

At the moment when the lightning beams and the blade of purple crystal confronted each other, Nikos opened his hands and sprinkled some silver powder.

A little silver light suddenly lit up at the feet of the three. The space around them began to change and shift, and their figures quickly became illusory.

*Whoosh!*

In the blink of an eye, they disappeared, and when they reappeared, they were standing somewhere else.

“This is…?” Nikos looked around. Suddenly he noticed something was wrong.

They were actually standing behind Tenko Kasumi, less than three meters away.

Tenko Kasumi slowly turned around, looking at them with a strange expression.

“You guys can run away again. Wanna try?”
