Chapter 535: Chapter 211: Faith

Jack suddenly burst, breaking free from the tentacles wrapped around his hands. He raised his sword, aiming to slash at Li Changhe.

During the conversation, he silently gathered his strength, trying to turn the tables. His strength was immense, and even the fifth-floor Abnormality could only temporarily restrain him.

However, it was all in vain. In that instant, Li Changhe’s Mo Blade, the girl’s greatsword, and Yun Ting’s long nails simultaneously pierced his body.

Given their power, these few seconds were enough to be fatal.

The multiple deadly puncture wounds on Jack’s body made him lose all ability to resist.

Blood oozed from his nose and mouth, and the crown on his head fell as well.

However, he did not die immediately, and one must admit that the Abnormality’s physique was truly astonishing.

If players were to fight Abnormalities, merely exchanging injuries could kill many players.

But now, even that ability was useless. He couldn’t move at all, nor did he qualify to exchange injuries with Li Changhe.

"You’ll regret this, regret making deals with them." Jack’s voice was hoarse. He cursed as he looked at the Azure Flame mask in front of him.

More tentacles stretched out from the mud, tying his limbs again and dragging him into the mire.

Following that came the chilling sound of chewing. It seemed as if there was something terrifying lurking in the mire, gnawing on people’s bones and sucking their marrow.

On the other side, the sounds of battle in the stairwell ceased.

Earth Knight supported the smoke-filled Wolfsbane as they emerged from the stairwell. His chest armor was twisted and dented with a fist imprint, and many parts of his helmet were damaged.

Wolfsbane’s right arm dangled limply, as if it had been violently twisted.

When they charged at Jack, Li Changhe called out a steam soldier to help them. It seemed that their three-against-one strategy didn’t go well.

"We had no chances of winning by confronting them head-on. That punch nearly killed me. Luckily, the light points formed by the steam soldier you summoned covered its field of vision, allowing me to find an opportunity to take it off." Earth Knight raised the red high heels in his hand: "As long as there’s no wearer, it has no combat power. I plan to throw it into the cesspit to vent my anger."

"You could take off its shoes while fighting?" Li Changhe was somewhat surprised. He had wanted to help, as Red Dancing Shoes’ strength was not weak. Unexpectedly, the Earth Knight had managed to take them off, and couldn’t help but mock: "Amazing. Practice a few more years, and you might reach the supreme level of ’shaming the enemy by undressing them’."

"Birds of a feather, huh. But seriously, that Red Dancing Shoes was hell-bent on killing me." Wolfsbane complained between gasps of discomfort: "Look at my hand. Do you have any painkillers?"

"Ahem, at least now, there’s no Abnormality that can interfere with us." Li Changhe approached and inspected Wolfsbane’s injury. Based on his multiple injury experiences,

such an injury would not recover during the Task. Bone injuries like this couldn’t be healed by High-Efficiency Healing Liquid alone.

Little Red Riding Hood stepped forward and handed over a roll of black bandages. It was one of the equipment on Little Red Riding Hood’s original owner and could alleviate the pain in the wound.

" Thanks, Hat Sister." Wolfsbane’s face brightened as he accepted it.

Taking advantage of the time it took him to bandage his wounds, Li Changhe sorted out his gains from this mission.

The Tin Man’s axe, Jack’s crown, a short club, and a long sword. Yun Ting had also obtained a branch from the Piercing Fruit Tree.

"After I destroyed more than twenty of its ’fruits’, it began to tighten its branches for defense. Finally, seeing that I wouldn’t leave, it gave me this—perhaps as a surrender."

"Naturally, both Jack and Red Dancing Shoes, having the strongest combative power, were defeated. They couldn’t possibly confront us."

Yun Ting contacted Li Changhe mentally: "The Aura Concealment and teleportation ability completely countered it. However, if we were in a densely wooded environment, it might not be as easy to deal with."

Li Changhe nodded, acknowledging that the environment was an important factor. Encountering something like this in a forest, who could notice the danger lurking in the shadows of the trees?

The Piercing Fruit Tree’s most significant weakness was exposing itself while unable to guarantee its own safety.

If Red Dancing Shoes and Jack had guarded the entrance from the start, they might have lasted longer. Hmm... it didn’t make much difference, where could the others escape to?

Although it did not entirely conform to the plan,

With the intervention of the fifth-floor Abnormalities, the Captain’s remaining forces inside the cruise ship were wiped out.

Li Changhe glanced at the fighting in the hall.

Corpse Face had bitten the giant alien’s limb. Despite the alien being more than twice the size of Corpse Face, it was struggling in vain as Corpse Face devoured its thigh. A subsidiary body on the side squeezed out another black lump of flesh, giving birth to another subordinate. It seems that victory was imminent.

Even the Insect God Shell, which had wreaked havoc on Mysterious Island for decades, couldn’t fight the fifth-level Abnormality. According to Grey Wolf’s intel, when Corpse Face birthed its third subordinate, the Captain would inevitably appear.

Hopefully, the fight between them would attract the attention of those outside.

After all, dealing with the Captain was too difficult.

Li Changhe’s primary goal was to allow external personnel to observe and attack the Dream Cruise, thus releasing the trapped humans inside.

"So, what is your plan, sir?" Li Changhe looked toward the stairwell on the other side.

There was a vague shadow there. Even with his Hawk Eye Magic Eye, Li Changhe couldn’t observe his appearance.

A thin mist shrouded the area.

He could only vaguely see its human-shaped silhouette and the huge, writhing tentacles inside the stairwell.

That should be the 504 Abnormality, Heart Stealer.

Like Corpse Face, which was devouring an alien in the hall, Heart Stealer was also an ALEPH Level Abnormality.

Unlike Corpse Face’s insanity, which showed no reason or ability to communicate,

Both the tip-off to Wolfsbane and the timing of attacking Jack demonstrated that Heart Stealer was intelligent.

Heart Stealer didn’t approach, but the pressure it exerted made the players feel palpitations.

Everyone could sense the danger the monster lurking in the stairwell posed.

As if it was some abhorrent thing, merely observing it gave a sensation of falling into a bottomless abyss. Simultaneously, they could hear the incessant sound of chaos.

Unlike the panicked roar of the Timid Lion,

It was humanity’s most primitive and instinctive emotion: fear.

Earth Knight averted his gaze, tightly gripping his damaged steel sword.

Wolfsbane, who was bandaging his wounds, was drenched in cold sweat, his face deathly pale.

Just by observing the opponent, they fell into a state of anxiety and fear.

This was the essence of divine creatures, those beings that could not be looked upon directly.

The reason Jack said Li Changhe would regret it was that Li Changhe and the others had to face an even more dangerous existence.

"Believe in me, become my apostle,"
