Chapter 137: Chapter 94: The Death of the Fierce Dog with Red Branches_2
At the moment the opponent moved, Gu Shanhai decisively turned tail and bolted.
Back then, he had to face Duer Lahan head-on to buy time, as the opponent was in heavy armor and had a mount, making him immobile.
But with Sethanda, first, he had no mount; second, Gu Shanhai was free; third, the opponent’s weapons were all in his hands, so he could slowly grind him to death.
"If players were in my place, I’m afraid they wouldn’t even recover health as fast as the opponent," Gu Shanhai occasionally threw back a mana halo to explode, constantly attacking from a distance with Spirit Blade to delay his speed.
Dragging the opponent around in a kite-flying manner, the rage visibly grew on the opponent’s body.
Gu Shanhai didn’t know what kind of knight the opponent was, but it was highly probable it was related to fury or slaughter; anyway, the angrier they got, the stronger they became—somewhat like the Hulk.
"Coward!" Sethanda cursed furiously.
"..." Gu Shanhai just felt the opponent was crazy. He wasn’t a knight, and still weaker, it would be suicide to stop and face the opponent directly.
"It seems... I might be able to trick him?" Gu Shanhai thought to himself.
"Ha, you are the coward. A knight trained from youth challenging me, a Druid for just one month; that’s all the courage you have. True warriors slash at the strong, cowards slash at the weak. You’re not just a coward but also a weakling, doomed to be one for life."
Gu Shanhai started with a taunt, and under the opponent’s rage, hearing these words made him lose control even more, his strength improving by three parts, though it seemed not yet at its limit.
It was a risky move; while it could infuriate the opponent into losing his rationality, it also indirectly enhanced the opponent’s strength.
"You lack all of the knight’s eight virtues; even a bandit in the wild has more morality than you."
"With your appearance, fit to be nobility? Which nobleman isn’t handsome and beautiful? You’re so ugly your mother should have drowned you at birth, only your father being a Druid saved you from that fate, letting such an ugly creature inherit the Sun’s name, making your father a disgrace among Druids."
"Look at you..."
The more Gu Shanhai cursed, the stronger Sethanda, chasing him, became; he had already surpassed Duer Lahan at his peak, and his power was still growing.
"Damn, didn’t I go too far..." Gu Shanhai thought to himself, the bloody aura had completely erupted.
Seeing the opportunity was ripe, Gu Shanhai finally said, "If you want to fight me head-on, you must sever one of your own arms and legs to make it fair."
Upon hearing this, the opponent wasn’t fooled; his ugly face twisted into a mocking expression, "Although I’m enraged, I’ve never lost my reason. You understand, Druid!"
"Oh, that’s too bad. With such a monstrous son, your mother must feel ashamed of you," Gu Shanhai said nonchalantly.
"I will tear your limbs apart and hang you from the cliffs to be pecked by hawks, hope then you can still talk tough." With those words, a bloody stream of light arrived in an instant, punching Gu Shanhai in the back.
Clearly, the rage BUFF had upgraded again.
This punch sent a chill through Gu Shanhai, not even his Dragon Scale Robe or Magic Domain could withstand it; fragments fell away, revealing a bloody hole in his back where his insides could be seen clearly.
He himself was sent flying, tumbling several meters before jumping back up, fortunately, the Demon Spear was still in hand.
"A bit capable..." Gu Shanhai got up with a grim expression, his right hand snapped, directly breaking the opposing Demon Spear, a mournful cry emanated from it as numerous imprisoned souls were released, finally dissolved by the sunlight.
This moment, Sethanda’s near-immortality was broken, and his rage peaked. The Demon Spear·Briounek was his beloved weapon, accompanying him through countless battles; it being destroyed by Gu Shanhai infuriated him more than the insults.
"Round two begins, I’ll collect your head as a trophy and dismember your body to feed to the dogs," said Gu Shanhai, his face fierce, his tone mad.
In that instant, Sethanda saw a kindred spirit.
Boom~ Boom Boom~
The deafening sound of a heartbeat came through as the bloody hole in Gu Shanhai’s back slowly healed itself, using his own life force for repair.
"Eight Trigrams·Thunder!"
"Eight Diagrams·Xun Wind!"
This time, Gu Shanhai didn’t just use Thunder; he also harnessed the power of Xun Wind. In a flash, thunder and wind struck together, pushing his speed to its ultimate limit.
Sethanda couldn’t react in time. Gu Shanhai closed in on him, his Mana-transformed Spirit Blade instantly piercing through his heart.
"This... it’s impossible..." confusion swirled in Sethanda’s eyes.
The speed was too fast, the changes too many for him to react.
What followed was Sethanda seeing his own head soar into the sky before he lost consciousness.
After Sethanda’s death, a mysterious presence seemed to spy on him. Gu Shanhai picked up Sethanda’s head with a stern look and challenged the presence, "This isn’t over yet!"
Once the presence left, Gu Shanhai collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath.
"I almost couldn’t hold back and got exposed..." Gu Shanhai knew his opponent wasn’t going to be easy; already injured, the overexertion in that fleeting instant almost did him in—not just Sethanda, even Kurus in his brass dragon form might not have reacted in time.
So, if the Kesba Sun spying on him had lingered any longer, he might have collapsed.
"No chance to dismember the body; I’ll just have to use it." Using healing magic, Gu Shanhai directly devoured Sethanda’s corpse, turning it into a mummified corpse. The intense life force he consumed was digested, then transformed into his own life force to heal his body.
"Good thing he just died; otherwise, it would have been tricky."
"But the injuries worsened; it’s a heavy wound indeed. Pushing to the limit is indeed reserved for life-or-death situations."
Gu Shanhai clenched his teeth and got up; he couldn’t enter the town anymore, so he had to figure out his own way in the wilderness.
Sethanda’s head was sealed and taken away by Gu Shanhai, who insisted, "This isn’t over yet."
He had to kill Kesba Sun, his father; even Princess Dektar, his mother, and not just them, the entire royal family of the Conchebor Kingdom had to be wiped clean.
If that man, commissioned by Merlin, could kill someone he had never met and who was unrelated to him, why should it end just because he was dead? Gu Shanhai needed to vent, or else it was like he was beaten for nothing.
"There’s also the Rahan Family and Merlin; once I’ve recovered, none shall escape."
After being attacked like this, if he didn’t get revenge, Gu Shanhai would be no better than a coward. Low-profile and timidity are different mindsets; being low-profile doesn’t mean he should receive blows and still offer a smile.
As for Ava he had commandeered earlier, he shamelessly adopted double standards, quipping that "Nature’s treasures belong to those with virtue." After all, it wasn’t him who’d seized it; Ava had followed him willingly.
After resting for a while, Gu Shanhai staggered to his feet and casually turned the headless corpse into ashes with a burst of flame, then he summoned Fierce General and set off into the wilderness and forest.
Unable to buy medicinal ingredients to formulate a healing potion, he had to use a less efficient method to recover.
Therefore, he planned to absorb the life forces of animals and plants to aid his healing. If he weren’t worried about inciting public anger or ruining his reputation, he would’ve started a massacre in the town already.
Now, in his precarious state, it’s best not to stir up further trouble, so he had to make do with the neighboring wilderness and forest, where, due to differences in species, the conversion efficiency of life force would assuredly be much lower.
