Chapter 61: Chapter 61: Hehe, I must keep winning

Ultra-long range, supreme power, huge size.

Leon and his group had never seen such a lobster!

"Can magic hit it?" Leon turned to Drew, who shook his head with difficulty.

This distance was too far, ordinary magic couldn’t reach, and he was just a support Magician; was he supposed to headbutt it?

Maybe he needed a Mad Fire Sniper.

Seeing Tal struggling against a bear, Leon made a decision quickly: "I’ll go kill it, Drew go check on Maru; why hasn’t she gotten up yet?"

Drew swiftly cast several buffs on Leon and simultaneously used Wind Magic to blow him in the direction of the lobster, heading himself towards where Maru had been blown away.

"Indeed, one cannot underestimate the monsters here; each one is bizarrely powerful,"

While in mid-air, Leon was charging his Combat Skill, preparing to unleash Light of Victory once more to slay the lobster with the quickest efficiency.

This type of shell-encased monster typically had low intelligence; he must strike before it could react—

"Pfft!"

Leon was blasted down by a water jet, smashing hard onto the ground.

"???"

He suddenly raised his head, his face flushed with disbelief.

How could the water jet be so fast and impactful? And it could fire a second shot in such a short time?

The Combat Skill Light of Victory would bestow a temporary tough state on the user, preventing interruption from some attacks unless...

The impact was too great!

How could a lobster be so strong!?

The shot had made Leon’s half body numb; no wonder Maru had trouble getting up, anyone with a fragile frame would have been sent straight back to respawn.

No longer underestimating, Leon charged at full speed towards the lobster, dodged two water jets, and finally got to the side of the lobster.

He launched the Combat Skill [Heavy Slash]!

With one slash, he directly cut off half of the lobster’s body!

"Nice!"

But just then, a large claw smeared his face, sending him flying several meters away.

"Puah—"

Leon crashed into a tree, abruptly spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.

How could the lobster still be so resilient? Despite suffering a fatal injury, it seemed unaffected and launched another attack?

He couldn’t understand; logically, an injured creature should show pain and sluggishness.

Simply put, the resilience of the Shrimp Ember King was too high, not causing any stun from his attack.

Fortunately, although it had high resilience, it had suffered a fatal injury; the lobster struggled for a bit before collapsing and completely dying.

"Wagggggh——"

Tal’s excited roar came from afar; it seemed he had achieved victory too.

Leon breathed a sigh of relief; the ordeal was finally over, he was physically and mentally exhausted, these monsters weren’t actually strong, but always managed to annoy unexpectedly.

The spiritual power he emitted in response had increased to three or four times the usual.

"A light point?"

Suddenly, a purple light point appeared beneath the lobster’s body; this thing even dropped equipment.

Leon picked it up and was stupefied.

"What the hell is this?"

[Limb-connecting Lobster Head]

[Combat Skill: Water Jet Emission]

"[Launch a long-range stream of water that can interrupt enemy actions]"

He looked at the small lobster head in his hand, similar to a boxing glove, puzzled about how such a bizarre weapon could possibly exist in the world.

Before he could think further, a line of text suddenly appeared:

"[A seal has been opened somewhere]"

Finally...

Leon quickly gathered his companions and returned to the Sealing Prison.

Although Maru had been shot, she was timely treated and now fine, Tal was still green and vigorously pounding his chest in excitement, Drew was in good condition, though he had used about a third of his Magic Power and would need an hour or two to naturally recover.

Overall, everyone in the Strategy Group was in good shape and ready to re-enter the Sealing Prison.

"Everyone be prepared,"

Leon thought of the information written on the envelope; there was a Knight from the Ancient City in the Sealing Prison, and defeating him would grant them the Flaming Straight Sword and annulment.

Since the Flaming Straight Sword and annulment were deemed very powerful by Gong Qiying, the Knight who wielded them must also be a formidable and righteous fighter, right?

He imagined a sturdy, valiant knight uncle in his mind; he has always had a favorable impression of very powerful individuals.

Upon entering the Sealing Prison, the strange scene inside took everyone by surprise; the space was confined to a not very large circle, with something like a stream of Magic Power blocking the surroundings, preventing anyone from leaving.

"Being confined in such a small area, that Knight seems quite pitiful," Maru said.

"But where is he?" Drew looked around, seeing no one.

"wagggh, wagggh!" Tal was still in a state of excitement...

Leon walked forward a few steps when suddenly, a peculiar sound effect played, and a dark blue silhouette slowly appeared before him.

Everyone held their breath, eager to behold the majesty of this powerful figure.

However, his equipment was not quite what they had envisioned.

Tall he was indeed very tall, but...

A pointed top black hood, the tail end of the hood hung like Majin Buu, and the pitch-black eye sockets seemed to flicker with a thirst for victory.

Extremely fat armor, yes, an armor that could strangely be described as "fat," worn as if flaunting a big belly.

A few little pots were hanging on the belt around his waist, containing some indescribable green substance that smelled foul like excrement.

These three items combined gave the "Knight" before them a very odd appearance, as if he was desperate to win by any means necessary.

Perhaps the most normal thing about him was his weapon: a dark medium shield in his left hand and a similarly unclean Straight Sword in his right hand.

Could that be the Flaming Straight Sword?

Doubts surfaced in Leon’s mind, but more so was a sense of crisis; his sixth sense told him that this Knight was far more troublesome than the Bear Shrimp Hand trio earlier.

"Come on, Knight, let’s see your strength!"

The Knight across suddenly swung his Straight Sword, tilted his head, swung again, and moved the shield while swinging.

"Ah?" Maru poked Leon surprisedly and asked, "Did you see what he just did?"

"...No."

The opponent raised his shield while swinging the sword, and in that instant, his sword withdraw action simply vanished, connecting directly to the second strike—it was as if...

Cancelled!

"Sss,"

Alarms blared in Leon’s mind, feeling something bad was about to happen.

"Hehehe, I must win this,"

The Knight opposite suddenly sneered sinisterly, taking large strides toward them!

"[Soul V’s Avatar·Ring Capture Version]"

"[Spiritual Power required per unit: Confidential]"

"[Overall Combat Ability: C-]"

This thing was concocted by Gong Qiying using different Monsters.
