Chapter 100: Chapter 81 Pseudo Absolute Defense (4000 words)

Benson, was the most honest and simple member of the Hero Team.

He too hoped to resurrect Jie Luo, and he would never refuse a request from Rose Vesper. He loved Rose Vesper deeply, even though he was very aware that only Jie Luo held her heart.

There was no helping it; when you’re in love, you’re in love.

Even if Jie Luo’s revival would only increase the distance between himself and Rose Vesper, Benson didn’t mind; as long as Rose Vesper was happy, that was enough for him.

For the happiness of Rose Vesper, he could tolerate anything. He was prepared; after reaching Orville Royal City, even if it meant having to beg the Second Generation Brave Warrior with a smile, he would endure the disgust and uphold his resolve.

However, how did Luo Meng anticipate his route? It seemed Luo Meng had been lying in ambush here for a while, just waiting for him to enter the encirclement!

Could there be a traitor within the Imperial City?

Only Rose Vesper knew his travel itinerary, but Rose Vesper would definitely not betray him—Benson truly believed this. Perhaps Rose Vesper inadvertently let this information slip to someone else in conversation, and that person was the real traitor.

Damn it, to think they used Rose Vesper.

Benson was furious to the point of shaking with rage. When he saw Rose Vesper again, he would definitely tell her about this incident and root out that damned traitor.

Losing focus during battle was a grave mistake.

Luo Meng might not be too intelligent, but his combat instincts were second to none. Benson’s momentary lapse was immediately seized by Luo Meng, whose enormous right hand shot out toward Benson, wrapped in swirling dark mist.

"Heavy Break..."

With a deep roar, Benson felt his body suddenly become incredibly heavy, as if his own gravity had increased a thousandfold, and his feet sank into the ground in an instant.

A suppressed roar escaped his throat as he tried to hold up his body, but the pressure on him continued to increase. It felt like a mountain bearing down on his back, and no longer able to support himself, his knees bent, and he fell to the ground with a thud.

Every bone in his body creaked, and his joints rubbed against each other violently.

Luo Meng’s dark red face twisted into a hideous laugh, and in the next moment, his body swooped forward in front of Benson, a fist as large as Benson’s body smashed towards him.

Boom... clang!

The collision between the demon’s colossal claw and the massive shield rang out like a giant bell.

Accompanied by the dust stirred on the ground, Benson’s body was sent flying with a punch, and with a bang, his back crashed against the mountain wall, and the grayish stone immediately bore a deep depression, surrounded by a web of cracks.

The whole mountain seemed to tremble as chunks of rock fell from the summit.

Gold Steel, one of the hardest metals on the Sky Dome Continent, forged by a master craftsman, even the shield could not withstand the Demon Prince’s attack, and fine cracks appeared in the center of the shield.

The demon’s muscular arm was raised high, ample Magic Power forming a thick black fog that churned in the palm, and in a brief moment, it condensed into a dark, spiked, odd-looking long spear.

A power close to Super Order Magic, wieldable only by High-level Demons.

"Dark Judgment!"

In the next instant, Luo Meng’s massive arm violently hurled the spear, and the black light, like a shooting star, rushed towards Benson with a piercing screech.

The spear moved too fast, leaving trails of afterimages in mid-air as if it were a singular straight line. In an instant, it was upon Benson’s chest.

Just then, a golden glow suddenly emerged around Benson’s body.

The Dark Judgment spear pierced into the golden light shield.

Boom, boom, boom...

In an instant, an explosive sound like thunder erupted, the earth shook, and even demons hundreds of meters away could not withstand the shockwave and were sent flying. The solid mountain wall was forcefully blown open to create a cave.

Many demons rose from the ground, their grotesque eyes fixed ahead, eager to see the image of Benson’s body being pierced by the Dark Judgment.

But quickly, these demons were disappointed.

Benson was not killed; the light shield on his body completely blocked the Dark Judgment.

The light shield shimmered with golden rays, gleaming brightly, and inside, Benson was unharmed.

Pseudo Absolute Defense!

Benson’s Power.

Known for being a High Order Power that almost reaches the level of Super Order Power.

During the activation of Pseudo Absolute Defense, Benson could almost negate all damage, and his Physical Strength and Fighting Energy would rapidly recover. Moreover, the duration could last up to an hour.

Of course, this power was not without its flaws; while under Absolute Defense, Benson could not move. Once he left his original position, the defense would shatter.

Damn it...

Luo Meng couldn’t help but growl lowly; he had thought his combination of moves would take out this guy, but his Power had blocked them. It was like cheating, shameless, without any honor...

Of course, Luo Meng forgot that leading a whole group of minions to ambush someone wasn’t exactly noble either.

Benson breathed heavily, his face as pale as paper with no trace of color. Large beads of sweat rolled down his eyebrows, stinging his eyes painfully as they fell.

But Benson had no time to care about these things; his heart was filled with relief.
