Online Game: I Started with Max Charisma and Caught the Goddess's Eye Chapter 320: The Choice! Killing the Flesh and Blood Giant B
The little girl remained fast asleep, completely unaware of the situation around her, and even more so of the circumstances she was in.
Luca, while resisting the attacks of the Flesh and Blood Giant Bear, furrowed his brow.
From the mont he had tried to test the girl with an attack earlier, he could tell that her role to the giant bear wasn’t rely that of a host. There was sothing more to it—sothing intertwined.
Responsibility, duty, obligation, or perhaps... a mission.
The fact that the bear kept her in the small chamber located near its heart wasn’t without purpose. It was, in so twisted sense, a thod of protecting her.
So, what would happen if he attacked her?
The only thing Luca was certain of was that the Flesh and Blood Giant Bear would go berserk and lose control.
But equally, this could very well cost the little girl her life.
He had refrained from using such tactics precisely because of this uncertainty.
But now, it seed that the ti had co when he would have no choice but to make a decision.
"ROAR!!" The Flesh and Blood Giant Bear clearly had no intention of continuing to drag things out. It let out another roar, and blood orbs began to float in the air, speeding off in all directions.
The monsters, their eyes filled with fear, tried to flee, but they were powerless to escape. One by one, they were struck by the blood orbs, exploding into clouds of blood mist.
Boom! Boom! Boom! The battlefield was filled with the sound of explosions as high-level monsters were obliterated. The resulting blood rain turned countless monsters on the ground into pools of blood.
The blood mist and the blood water rged, roaring like a surging river, rushing back into the Flesh and Blood Giant Bear’s body. In the blink of an eye, the bear’s form expanded once again.
Looking up, it stood as massive as a mountain, its overwhelming aura rising into the sky. The blood-colored light beam from its mouth beca even more violent and furious!
Even with the protection of the primal power, Luca’s Starseeker could no longer withstand such an assault, and it exploded with a violent crack.
The blood-red light, which seed capable of piercing through the heavens and the earth, completely engulfed Luca’s form. At the last mont, Luca summoned up another defensive shield and collided fiercely with the blood column.
Boom!! The heavens and earth shook as the blinding blood light made it impossible for anyone to keep their eyes open. A violent hurricane, akin to a typhoon, swept through the area.
Nurous houses and monsters were blown away. The only fortunate thing was that the evacuating crowd was already far enough from the epicenter that they were not severely affected.
"Luca!" The battlefield erupted in exclamations at the sight. Quagmire’s fist clenched tightly, his eyes bloodshot as he stared at the figure swallowed by the blood light. His hand was trembling with fury, his knuckles creaking as his grip tightened.
Watching his teammates face off against the monsters alone, Donlow couldn’t help but feel both enraged and powerless, unable to do anything to help.
"It’s impossible, impossible!" Donlow stared up at the sky in disbelief, his eyes filled with shock. He couldn’t believe it—how could that radiant young man, the one who shone so brightly, so easily perish at the hands of the monsters?
lania also looked up, silent. But the killing intent in her eyes grew even stronger, and the aura around her turned colder. Fuzzsir, rarely seen in such a state, fell into an unusual silence.
He lowered his head and gazed at his staff, seemingly lost in thought.
"Did he... did he really lose in the end?" Cornbark slowly lowered his head, his body seeming to age by ten years in that instant.
With Luca’s death, no one could stop the giant bear now. Against a Superclass monster, they were powerless. They could only watch as these monsters rampaged through them, slaughtering at will.
"Giggle giggle!" The Flesh and Blood Giant Bear slapped its aty palms together, a grin spreading across its face as the little girl’s joyful laughter echoed out.
Stay tuned with .Côm
The sound was crisp, like the song of a lark, but to the others, in that mont, it was grating and unbearable.
As that laughter rang out, it seed as though the sky itself was growing darker.
But soon, they realized it wasn’t just a feeling—the sky truly was darkening.
"What’s going on?" Exclamations of shock filled the air. Cornbark, who had been in a lancholic state, suddenly noticed sothing off and looked up. His face was imdiately overco with shock.
What had once been a sky bathed in blood-red light was now covered by thick, ominous clouds. Arcs of lightning, as thick as a man’s arm, slithered across the sky, resembling a vast sea of thunder, making the hairs on the back of their necks stand on end.
At the sa ti, the towering figure of the Flesh and Blood Giant Bear slowly wiped the grin from its face. It looked up at the sky, its crimson eyes filled with disbelief.
Amid the crackling thunderstorm, a slender figure stood proudly in midair. Covered in blood, his clothes torn, and one of his arms severed, blood oozing from the wound, he still stood tall. His eyes, however, remained calm, bright, and determined, their brilliance shining through even the blinding lightning.
"He’s not dead! Luca... Luca isn’t dead?!" Seeing the figure in the sky, everyone was stunned. After such a massive burst of energy, everyone had assud Luca was surely finished.
But to their surprise, it seed as though he had only suffered so injuries, with the only serious one being the severed arm.
However, Quagmire and the others, whose strength had reached a high level, could clearly see that the flesh at the wound of Luca’s arm was wriggling, almost like worms, quickly healing his body.
For an ordinary person, this might be a fatal injury, but for players, especially high-tier ones, it was nothing to worry about. As long as the life remained, there was still hope for recovery.
"Roar!!" The Flesh and Blood Giant Bear tilted its head back and let out a deafening roar as it glared at Luca in the sky. The relaxed expression it had earlier was now gone, replaced by wild, furious anger.
It seed to be angry at Luca for not dying yet, and there was an undercurrent of unease mixed in with the rage.
"What does he think he’s doing?" At that mont, everyone suddenly noticed that Luca was moving.
A smile crept across his lips, and his hand stretched out toward the sky. The arcs of lightning in the thunderous storm seed to respond to so kind of call and surged wildly toward his hand, gradually forming into a ball of lightning.
At the sa ti, he was using his ntal power to compress the chaotic Power of Thunder that filled the ball. Soon, in Luca’s hand, a spear made of interwoven bolts of lightning appeared, glowing with a blinding white light.
As the thunder continued to surge into it, the power of the spear grew rapidly.
However, Luca didn’t stop. He continued to use his ntal energy to suppress the restless forces inside and kept compressing the energy further.
Gradually, the Power of Thunder within the spear began to warp the surrounding space, and then it settled, with the power inside now palpable, exuding a force that made everyone feel the hairs on the back of their necks stand on end.
A sense of impending danger washed over the Flesh and Blood Giant Bear. It beca visibly agitated, roaring deafeningly at Luca in the sky. But sohow, it seed hesitant, unwilling to make any rash moves. There was a feeling, as if it sensed that moving even slightly could an its death.
But its hesitation didn’t an Luca was going to let it off easily. His gaze lowered, looking down at the massive bear below. All his remaining strength gathered in his one usable arm, his slender form bending like a bow, the shape of his body resembling a drawn crescent moon.
Taking a deep breath, he uttered a single word.
"Die!"
The mont the word left his lips, his movent was impossible to track.
A dazzling silver-white streak of light cut through the sky, like a bolt of divine judgnt, flying straight toward the Flesh and Blood Giant Bear.
By the ti the bear reacted, the spear had already appeared before it!
In that instant, ti seed to freeze. The blinding white light blocked everyone’s vision, turning the entire world into a brilliant white.
Then, a blinding beam of light shot through the sky, piercing the heavens and breaking through the dark clouds, as though it were trying to tear a hole in the very sky.
The Flesh and Blood Giant Bear stood frozen in place, its face filled with disbelief. It seed utterly stunned that Luca would take such an action.
Imdiately after, its massive body began to disintegrate in front of everyone’s eyes. It turned into a mass of blood light, floating toward the sky like countless crimson fireflies.
The pink room, made of flesh and blood, slowly faded away, and the little girl began to fall toward the ground. With a flash of silver light, Luca, covered in blood, caught her in mid-air. She was still deeply asleep, looking as peaceful and sweet as ever.
In her arms, there was a teddy bear, seemingly unchanged, though now with an additional colorful crystal embedded within it.
[Ding! You have slain the "Lv73 Shapeshifted Bear (Leader)," gaining 3,400,000 experience!]
The kill notification appeared in front of Luca.
Golden light began to flicker across his body, and his level imdiately surged to level 60 in a matter of monts. However, at the sa ti, cracks began to form across his body, like the fractures of shattered porcelain.
Specks of starlight drifted from his body, and Luca’s form began to flicker, becoming increasingly ethereal. Earlier, he had used all of his primal energy to craft the Thunder Spear, reinforcing his ntal strength.
This had been done to ensure he could save the little girl while also completely destroying the Flesh and Blood Giant Bear. Although successful, his body could no longer bear the imnse power, and it was on the verge of collapse.
In the ga, he possessed the Solar Divine Body, but in reality, he was just an ordinary person. Unable to balance both, he had no choice but to make a sacrifice.
At that mont, Quagmire and the others had arrived. They looked at Luca, whose body was on the brink of disintegration, with complex expressions.
So showed admiration, others regret, so sadness, and so remained silent. No one spoke.
"She’s in your hands now," Luca said as he placed the little girl into their arms. After a brief silence, he added, "Take good care of her. She’s a pitiful child."
He had already guessed the girl’s identity and had an inkling about the origin of the giant bear. He hadn’t realized it before, as this creature didn’t appear in his previous life until years later.
He hadn’t expected the signs to appear so soon.
"Luca… your body… are you okay?" Donlow asked, looking at him with concern as he took the girl into his arms. Quagmire and the others also watched him with anxious expressions.
Luca glanced at his body and suddenly smiled. "Don’t worry, I’m not dead yet."
