Chapter 60: Chapter 60 Are Cats Also mbers of Your Organization?
“`
Atop the high platform built by the Investigation Bureau, the director in charge, Zhou, stared into the distance with a blank expression, remaining silent for a long ti.
Jiang Tingqiu was the sa.
After a while, he finally snapped back to reality, both excited and agitated, “Old Zhou, let ask you again, who’s stronger, Miss An or my big brother?!”
Zhou opened his mouth.
Damn, An Jianyou’s been playing dumb, pretending to be a newbie was one thing, but how could this seemingly aloof, cloaked swordsman have hidden so much!
...
From his appearance to now, in just a few short minutes, the number of Mysterious Evils he had slain was too many to count.
Even those four fearso two-star Mysterious Evils died by his blade as if there was no difference between them and the Common Mystical Evils.
So violent! So powerful!
Zhou thought for a mont, “Could it be because of that sword? That sword is likely a Strange Implent, and the one he used last ti was not like this greatsword.”
Jiang Tingqiu countered, “Can a Strange Implent increase strength by that much? Besides, Strange Implents have side effects and can’t be used for long. Haven’t you seen how many Mysterious Evils my big brother has killed?!”
Master Ma, who was in the distance, had already busily stopped and sealed away his ‘Blood Curse’ when the battle eased.
Once used, this Strange Implent would continuously drain one’s own blood, until it was fully depleted.
The side effects were not minor.
But stopping it wasn’t difficult; just throwing the Strange Implent away would do. Master Ma could barely stand it after using this Strange Implent for just twenty seconds or so.
But what about the cloaked big brother? His sword never left his side, and his life energy seed to be endless.
Too powerful!
This was the goal he should strive for all his life!
…
Far away, a few hundred ters off on an unremarkable hilltop, Fang You was browsing through the ga interface.
One could see Black Blade’s life energy fluctuating, falling then rising again.
Rising and falling, the overall downward trend was very slow.
“The Evil-Slaying Greatsword is indeed aweso.”
If it weren’t for this Strange Implent, Black Blade could only focus on two-star Mysterious Evils, not daring to waste his precious life energy on ‘small fries’.
But now, with the Evil-Slaying Greatsword in hand, fighting ‘construction site Mystical Evils’ of such caliber, Black Blade didn’t even need to use the blade to kill, just injecting a small amount of life energy was enough to slay them in one move.
Black Blade’s energy control was extrely precise!
Not a bit more, not a bit less! His allocation of life energy, and how to slay Mysterious Evils in the most efficient and simple way, Black Blade had perfected it to the extre.
It was almost an art!
With such ticulous conservation, combined with the ‘mana-sucking’ support of the Evil-Slaying Greatsword, although he couldn’t achieve no loss at all, Black Blade’s condition remained steady.
Very stable.
An Jianyou’s condition wasn’t bad either. As long as she didn’t activate her Awakening to boost herself, her consumption was almost nil.
Both were experts in enduring battles.
However, Fang You glanced at the remaining ti for the ‘Gate of Hell’ on the ga interface.
It was still far from the ti to relax.
…
Zhou checked the ti, “It’s been 61 minutes, by rights this Gate of Hell should…”
It should have closed by now!
But it hadn’t, the grey Mist was still churning, and occasionally a few dark figures would erge from the center of the mist.
Not many in number, and with the powerful reinforcents of An Jianyou and the cloaked swordsman, this line of defense could be said to be very solid, yet Zhou felt a sense of unease in his heart.
How long will the Gate of Hell exist?
Existing records mostly fell within the 50-60 minute ti fra, but there were too few samples to draw any definite conclusions.
Zhou frowned.
At that mont, the mist surged violently again, the sixth ti it had ‘breathed’.
The sixth wave of the Evil Tide surged forth.
“Hold on.”
“Hold on through this wave, and we will welco victory!”
As expected, this wave of the Evil Tide brought forth more of the larger beasts, with as many as six two-star Mysterious Evils!
It was very troubleso!
But this ti, with the cloaked swordsman at the forefront, his speed was actually no faster than that of the two-star Mysterious Evils. His figure, surrounded by giant Mysterious Evils, appeared incredibly small.
His presence was not as imposing as the Mysterious Evils controlled by An Jianyou, but he was able to move and dance within the surrounding circle of Mysterious Evils, seizing an opportunity to glow red on the greatsword, and with one slash, he would burst the Mysterious Evil apart.
“`
“`
It seed effortless, yet he was clearly dodging and weaving through the horde of Mysterious Evil, the scene fraught with danger, lacking the power to overwhelm.
Yet he killed the most Mystic Evil.
The man was like an indestructible rock, resisting the tide’s onslaught, even tearing it apart in return.
Strong and enduring.
Seeking out Black Pupil as an external aid was the most correct decision he had made since becoming director!
“???”
Jiang Tingqiu stared, “Wasn’t it who brought Black Pupil here?”
Director Zhou patted his shoulder, “I’ve already noted your contribution. Besides, isn’t your credit the departnt’s credit, it’s all the sa.”
This wave of the Evil Tide was held back, with fewer losses than the last wave.
Director Zhou’s face broke into a smile, waiting.
After a long wait, the gray mist was still churning, showing no sign of dissipating.
His smile started to falter, stiffening as he glanced at his watch. The ti had reached the 76th minute, and the seventh wave of the Mystic Evil tide had also appeared.
The pressure was mounting. At this rate, even the black-cloaked swordsman wouldn’t be able to hold out.
The life energy of a person has its limits!
…
In the distance,
Fang You observed the battle conditions. The mist was now thicker, not clear from hundreds of ters away, but fortunately, he was in ‘special mission mode’ now. The mission map was marked with red dots for Mystic Evil, green dots for allies like An Jianyou and Black Blade, and blue dots for the Investigation Bureau’s personnel.
Among them, the particularly large red dots represented two-star Mystic Evils, especially marked.
At the sa ti, he could enter ‘God’s view’, ‘An Jianyou’s view’, ‘Black Blade’s view’, mainly God’s view, similar to the state when projecting Black Blade, he could freely control the perspective to move up, down, left, and right, observing the battlefield and directing the tactics.
“Nine o’clock direction, there’s a two-star Mysterious Evil Cyclopean Bull, tie it down.”
“One o’clock direction, break a path, create an opportunity for Black Blade.”
“Three o’clock direction…”
On the high platform, An Jianyou was excited.
The ntor was watching here!
The mist was thick at this ti, and there were many Mystic Evils. She was also sowhat unclear and couldn’t communicate with Black Blade, but under the ntor’s command, Xiao Hei One and Xiao Hei Two created opportunities, and the brother Black Blade knocked them down with one strike, very efficiently.
But there were still so many Mystic Evils.
“Next up is the eleven o’clock direction…huh, brother Black Blade isn’t in this area.”
There was a creature called ‘Human-Faced Wolf’ here, more than two ters tall, covered in gray-brown decaying fur, with limbs on the ground, and a face that looked like a crying human.
Thus nad ‘Human-Faced Wolf’, it was extrely fast and posed a great danger to the defense area.
An Jianyou understood, but she couldn’t catch up!
Even with the Mystic Evil boost, she was far too slow to catch up… In the future, she must catch a Mystic Evil skilled in speed!
It was too late.
Could she only follow the ntor’s instruction to block the Mystic Evils behind?
“ow~”
A cat’s ow suddenly rang out, clearly audible within the roaring area.
A small black figure, stepping with elegant strides, appeared on the battlefield.
One step, two steps, three steps, the figure moved gracefully, unhurriedly, perfectly avoiding each Mystic Evil’s attack.
Until it stood before the Human-Faced Wolf.
The two figures, one large and one small, faced each other.
“ow~”
The black cat leaped into the air, its body suddenly swelling in size mid-jump.
Giant Spirit Transformation!
Its speed surged, and its rapidly enlarging body shone with rings of light, like armor being donned.
The Human-Faced Wolf was sent flying by the massive body, and by the ti it was midair, Black Pupil had already caught up, slamming its paw down, sending the Human-Faced Wolf crashing to the ground like a car from midair.
A rumbling sound ensued as the earth cracked and stones flew.
The large black cat stood atop the twisted body of the Human-Faced Wolf, surveying its surroundings.
The paw slamd down furiously.
