Chapter 468: The world without the Minotaur

Translator: CKtalon Editor: CKtalon

The world in the seventh level was apparently not on the same timeline as the array world. As it was already evening in the array world, the world of the seventh level was far from welcoming in the dusk.

Although the glaring sun was no longer as hot as it was at noon, the rays of light it dawned down onto the mortal world was still as resplendent as ever. The sunlight penetrated the holes in the clouds, illuminating the land fully.

Inside the vast and empty basin, there was not a single spot that escaped the sun's illumination other than the periphery regions near the rock cliffs. And because of that, the seven young boys and girls within the basin had their 'shadows' imprisoned.

If a large mass of clouds floated across the sky to temporarily shade the sunlight, it would cause the 'shadows' rooted to the ground to temporarily disappear. Only then might they be saved.

Unfortunately, such a miracle did not happen. During these short but seemingly endless ten minutes, not a single miracle happened no matter how much they were praying.

Therefore, this story that was stained by an atmosphere of despair did not seem like there would be any reversal happening. It was finally reaching the closing curtain of this tragedy.

Field Marshal Awesomo's flesh that had been diced to bits were like maggots. It squirmed inch by inch before slowly merging together. After ten minutes of hard work, the pieces of meat were finally about to be fully restored as a whole in another ten seconds.

This self-recovery process was filled with repugnance—severed intestines were gluing themselves together, shattered organs were slowly merging together, sticky blood was squeezing back into the dried up blood vessels, foul brain fluid seeped into pale white bones...Such a process that looked like a reversed dissection was even more sickening and tragic than the dismemberment scene.

And accompanying this process was an atmosphere that was constantly brewing with horror and despair.

The more miserable Field Marshal Awesomo's restoration process was, the more brutal his revenge would be.

Even the thirty-thousand-strong audience could sense the dangerous aura exuded from the basin. The Celestials could not sit still because one of the seven unfortunate souls that were about to be devoured by Field Marshal Awesomo's vengeance was their Celestial King.

However, the stirring among the Celestials was completely useless. That was because, since an unknown period of time ago, the basin demarcated by the cliffs was already enveloped by an invisible domain. It isolated the thirty-thousand-strong audience outside the basin.

After all, the mastermind behind this scheme was the assessment program who had full control over the land of trials, the Infernal Queen. Be it the Celestials, Infernals, or the Transcendents, they were just puppet-like existences she created. Naturally, they lacked the strength to interfere with her plans. They did not even have the right to disturb the trajectory towards despair by even a centimeter.

All they could do was watch helplessly as Field Marshal Awesomo's perfectly recovered body pick its head up from the ground before placing it on his neck with a clean cut.

The bones connected with each other while flesh began exchanging tissue. When the final wound disappeared, it would mark the beginning of an extremely brutal revenge.

"Is the boring and meaningless prelude finally about to end?" Earthbound Yaksha opened its eyes and cast its gaze onto the gigantic shadow that spread across the ground. Its voice sounded somewhat impatient.

It had abided to Shadow Wraith's arrangements, it did not kill Speechless and Mu Lengxi, who made it somewhat worried. It was not entirely because it wanted to allow Field Marshal Awesomo to vent his anger, nor was it because of the Shadow Wraith, who was the Level Lord of the ninth level, had the right to 'order' it.

It was because Earthbound Yaksha was a warrior that reveled in bloodshed before it became an evil spirit from hell. The vestiges of a warrior's honor prevented it from finding depraved delight in attacking opponents who could not fight back.

However, allowing enemies that it could kill immediately live on for another ten minutes seemed like an extremely foolish thing to do. Even though the seven trial-takers were restrained by Shadow Wraith's 'Shadow Shackles', who could be certain that nothing unexpected would happen despite the odds of a reversal happening was infinitesimal?

What made Earthbound Yaksha most vexed and impatient was that it knew the true motives behind Shadow Wraith's actions.

"Yes, the prelude has ended, so let the dirge of despair begin!"

Shadow Wraith let out a hoarse, sinister chuckle.

"Oh, heh heh...Brother Yaksha, don't you know that the prelude is extremely important? Compared to passing a death sentence directly, by sparing them with a pittance of time to live, letting the remnants of hope gradually vanish, their feelings of despair will gradually accumulate. They will hysterically pray for a miracle, and as the timespan of their prayers slows down, it will begin brewing an endless terror. Finally, when the flames of despair spark an explosion, it will be the most beautiful dirge when it reaches the climax! Therefore, the prelude is extremely important."

Shadow Wraith's voice was filled with evil delight.

Earthbound Yaksha revealed a look that indicated it had expected it. It said in a cold voice, "Thy evil delight is something that I cannot agnize even after ten thousand years. In mine own point of view, nay matter how weak the opponent is, nay matter how much advantage exists, excessive arrogance and carelessness can result in disaster for oneself. Besides..."

Earthbound Yaksha turned its head to scan the seven trial-takers on the desolate lands. Its expression turned uglier.

Even though they could not move or their repeated struggles had failed after a long ten minutes, the seven humans, be it that carefree shield youth, or that frail looking silver-haired girl, none of them had eyes that seemed dull despite Field Marshal Awesomo's revenge and torture was about to descend upon them.

Their eyes had remained bright with a sparkle to them. They did not look like eyes people would have in a state of utter despair. No, it should be said that their eyes were clearly filled with hope and fighting spirit!

They were enemies that definitely could not be treated carelessly. Furthermore, it and the two other idiots had given them ten minutes without noticing it.

"Enough! Foolish Ox, apace maketh thy moveth!"

Earthbound Yaksha bellowed angrily. While it was rejoicing over the fact that nothing unexpected had happened in the past ten minutes, it also began having a wariness like what a serious warrior should have.

"No hurry."

Field Marshal Awesomo cracked his neck that he had rejoined. Immediately the crackling of his bones locking in place was heard. As he picked up the battle ax on the ground with a sneer, he turned his head towards the azure-dressed girl that was glaring hatefully at him from afar.

"What's the rush? We still have lots and lots of time. This Field Marshal wants them to experience utter torture, giving them a living death!"

As Field Marshal Awesomo said that with a tone that could barely repress the wrath in it, he slowly walked towards the azure-dressed girl that was at his mercy.

"Killeth those folk immediately. Maketh haste and stop wasting time!" Earthbound Yaksha frowned. Field Marshal Awesomo seemed bent on slowly torturing the seven trial-takers to death. If he was allowed free reign to do so, it would definitely be a waste of even more time. There might be unexpected situations that crop up. After all, the seven trial-takers did not seem like they had given up from the look in their eyes.

Arrogance and carelessness were sources of evil that could land them in trouble easily. They had to nip the threat in the bud!

As a warrior many years ago, it had died under the hands of an enemy that it thought it had killed. How could it make the same mistake?

Earthbound Yaksha's eyes squinted as he slowly unsheathed a samurai sword.

"Earthbound Yaksha, hold your blade! This Field Marshal advises you not to underestimate my anger. Did you not see the pain and humiliation that This Field Marshal experienced just now? If the cruelest of tortures isn't used, how can This Field Marshal vent the anger in his heart?"

Field Marshal Awesomo growled angrily at Earthbound Yaksha. Not long ago, it had been trapped in a tiny space. All the air had been robbed of it. That sense of despair of not being able to breathe and the terror of impending doom was still fresh on his mind. The hatred he had could no longer be described by words.

One could see the instantaneous struggle in Earthbound Yaksha's eyes before it finally let out a sigh.

"It's up to thee."

Earthbound Yaksha sheathed its samurai sword and closed its eyes with flagging interest. It leaned against the cliff to continue its nap. Regardless of the matter, it had a relationship with the foolish ox for ten thousand years. Even though their relationship appeared odious on the surface, it was impossible that it did not feel a thing for the ox.

Furthermore, although it was somewhat wary, it did not believe that the seven humans had any chance of retaliation. That was because it too could not escape Shadow Wraith's 'Shadow Shackles' if it were in their shoes.

It was not worth it to sever all ties with the foolish ox for an unrealistic notion of wariness.

Earthbound Yaksha's compromise made Field Marshal Awesomo release a delighted smile. He turned his head and continued proceeding forward at a speed that wasn't considered fast, but in less than ten seconds, he was already in front of Sunless.

With less than a meter separating him from her, all he needed to do was swing his ax, and the girl would be beheaded, splattering blood everywhere.

But at that moment, looking down at those calm, amber eyes that were filled with killing intent, he was unsure what he should do next.

He was always inclined to enter a frenzied massacre while enjoying the thrill of splitting his enemies into two. However, he did not have much expertise when it came to torturing techniques.

It wanted to make the wretch in front of it be tormented by the cruelest torture. Typical acts of torture could not satisfy him; hence, he needed to treat her carefully like a treasure. He was momentarily unsure what he should do next.

"Hey, Wraith, you were once the prison governor of the underworld. You are proficient in means of torture when it comes to convicts. Can you teach This Field Marshal? This Field Marshal finally understands today that torturous torment is an important art. Due to the rage I have, it's not something that can be vented even with slaughtering."

Field Marshal Awesomo turned its body to look at the shadow on the ground and asked a horrific question.

"Heh heh heh..."

Shadow Wraith was clearly pleased to indulge Field Marshal Awesomo. It said with a sinister laugh, "Compared to physical pain, mental torture is even crueler. Therefore, constantly trampling on their dignity, letting them feel a humiliation that cannot be endured, making them yearn for an immediate death, letting them suffer a mental breakdown...That is true punishment!"

Field Marshal Awesomo clearly did not understand the underlying meaning behind Shadow Wraith's words. He said in impatience, "What does it mean? Can you tell This Field Marshal what should be done directly?"

Shadow Wraith said with a scoff, "You can't even understand that? You are really a...Forget it. I'll just make it clear. The human you want to torture is a young girl. She is equivalent to an unwed female minotaur in your minotaur race. To an unwed female minotaur, what do you think is the most unbearable humiliation?"

To a foolish ox-like Field Marshal Awesomo, such a direct analogy could not be any better.

How should an unwed female minotaur be tormented?

Field Marshal Awesomo pondered for a moment before he immediately understood Shadow Wraith's intentions. He suddenly widened his eyes as he could not help but reveal a sinister smile.

Hence, he immediately turned around.

His hands had let go of his battle ax. With a twisted pose, he stretched his arm towards the azure-dressed girl a meter away from him!

An indescribable scene that should not have happened in a passionate novel about posturing might have been created by Field Marshal Awesomo. With his identity as a minotaur, he would NTR the male protagonist, so what else could stir the blood of experienced readers with such fetishes?

But!

How can the purity-obsessed author, who deliberately prevented one of the female protagonists from having any scenes with other male supporting actors, allow the female protagonist to be tainted in any way?

Very unfortunately, the antagonist was destined to not even touch a strand of the female protagonist's hair!

Therefore, rejoice, because, at that moment, the arms Field Marshal Awesomo stretched out midway paused in mid-air suddenly. His body that he turned came to a complete halt as well!

"Huh!?"

Shadow Wraith exclaimed in disbelief.

At the same time, they saw Field Marshal Awesomo, whose face had a hideous grin remained stiff on his face, had a fine crack appear from the top of his head. Immediately following that, including his head, his body gradually separated into two pieces as they fell to the ground.

"Slam!"

Field Marshal Awesomo's massive body had crumbled to the ground in two cleaved halves.

And in Shadow Wraith's vision, the azure-dressed girl that had previously been blocked by Field Marshal Awesomo's massive body slowly appeared.

At that moment, the azure-dressed girl was holding a sword with both hands as she raised it high towards the sky. Visible black energy began spreading out from the tip of her silver sword like vines and it formed a spiraling sword energy of darkness that resembled a black fog!

"How is it possible!?" Shadow Wraith bellowed angrily in disbelief. The situation's sudden reversal was clearly not a miracle, nor was it because the shameless author had wantonly change the plot in order to save the female protagonist, but because—the azure-dressed girl who had raised her sword high had escaped its 'Shadow Shackles'!

Without any reinforcements, she had escaped its 'Shadow Shackles' alone and split apart Field Marshal Awesomo, whose back was facing her. Furthermore...

Shadow Wraith slowly widened its nonexistent eyes as it looked at the spiraling black sword energy above the silver sword. Suddenly, it realized something...

"No! Quickly stop her!" Shadow Wraith yelled in Earthbound Yaksha's direction!

"Damn it!" Earthbound Yaksha immediately opened its eyes when it heard Shadow Wraith. With a curse, it immediately unsheathed its samurai sword and wanted to prevent the unforeseen event that was about to happen.

However, as Earthbound Yaksha had a protruded spine, it had especially found a cliff to rest on. It was a distance away from the dismembered body. When the blade beam it slashed out was midway in flight, Sunless had already cleaved down her raised sword!

"Heaven Shrouding Eclipse!"

The spiraling sword beams of darkness slammed at Shadow Wraith suddenly like a black cloud!

Heaven Shrouding Eclipse was one of the higher grade sword techniques of the Ye family. It was also the most proficient sword technique Sunless's brother, Heartless, knew.

However, Sunless, who had only practiced the technique a few times in the past, did not pale in comparison to Heartless with her usage of Heaven Shrouding Eclipse. It was solid proof of her talent in sword arts.

And the reason why she chose to use Heaven Shrouding Eclipse at such a critical moment was that the sword beam formed from Heaven Shrouding Eclipse would absorb all the natural elements of 'darkness' from the surroundings. It would cause the sword beam to have a physical manifestation of 'black clouds'.

Against Shadow Wraith, who was a 'shadow', the black clouds that could shroud the sunlight was apparently the best technique!

As such, when the sword beam came cleaving down, the suppressive sword beam in the form of black clouds fully depicted the reason why it was a 'Heaven Shrouding Eclipse'. The sun was eclipsed and the ground beneath the sword beam was completely covered in darkness!

Darkness immediately devoured the six shadow tentacles of Shadow Wraith!

"No!"

Shadow Wraith bellowed furiously. The devouring darkness did not harm it, but it had dispelled its 'Shadow Shackles'!

The other six humans that were shackled immediately escaped the shadow's imprisonment!

"Move out!"

A male voice filled with a magnetic charm suddenly resounded in the darkness.

It was Speechless's voice!

At the same time, three figures tore through the black fog and charged towards Earthbound Yaksha's location!

The enraged Earthbound Yaksha had similarly taken action. It dashed towards the source of noise with a samurai sword in hand. The youth who had given an order like a leader was an existence that it felt most apprehensive about among the seven humans. It was filled with regret that it did not immediately kill the youth ten minutes ago.

However, no amount of regret could change the past. Therefore, Earthbound Yaksha was determined to kill him 'now'!

Earthbound Yaksha immediately sensed that three auras were charging straight at it.

It swept its gaze and saw that the three figures were the youth with the mithril shield, the Daoist with a talisman in hand, as well as the azure-dressed girl, who left a deep impression on it.

"Scram!" Earthbound Yaksha sneered. A repressive Soul Suppression emanated from its body.

It did not have the luxury of time to waste with the trio. Even the azure-dressed girl was not someone who made it as apprehensive as that youth who was proficient at strategic deployment.

Towards opponents who were a few psionic realms lower than it was, releasing Soul Suppression was enough to leave them stifled.

And indeed, the moment Earthbound Yaksha's Soul Suppression was released, other than Sunless, who did not appear affected, Feng Yuanlin and Liu Yu's pupils constricted and their bodies came to a sudden halt. Their actions appeared extremely slow.

At that moment, a melodious voice sounded. It was moving and pleasant to the ears. The voice wasn't loud, but it seemed to penetrate the barriers of space itself. Instantly, it filled the entire arena!

"The sky is high and the wind sings,"

"The dream I once relished in joy,"

"That people will one day find,"

"Your firm belief with the eyes of a child!"

"I'm willing to be by your side,"

"Crossing through the frozen forest,"

"So that your eyes won't forever hesitate,"

"in the grief of the world!"

It was unknown when Mu Lengxi had taken off her thick black-rimmed glasses, revealing her adolescent beauty. She spread out her arms and with her eyes closed, she sang with gusto. The wind that blew into the sky suddenly flared the crystalline-like silver-hair that resembled snowflakes into the sky.

At that moment, the bookworm who always buried herself in a sea of books and remained silent was dignified and pure like a goddess. She was as charming and gorgeous as a pixie.

Her voice reached towards the horizons and clear droplets of resplendent light fell to the ground like a drizzle, while illuminating the other six. The courage and hope infused in the voice transformed into surging energy that flowed through their bodies.

The effects of Soul Suppression was immediately reduced drastically, enough for Feng Yuanlin and Liu Yu to conquer it based on their own willpower.

"Wow, wow, wow! Muse Silvermoon's "The Sky is High and the Wind Sings"! And she immediately began with the chorus which is the most exhilarating! Oh! Oh! Oh! Energy is surging, it's all coming!" Feng Yuanlin shouted out in an exaggerated manner. He raised his mithril shield and charged at Earthbound Yaksha. His excited appearance did not look like he was rushing headlong into battle, but like he was rushing to attend a concert.

"This is how a Muse alone can influence the outcome of a battle!" Liu Yu sighed in praise once again.

Although Mu Lengxi's powers were still nascent as a peerless Muse, she was able to shape the outcome of the battle. In the future, she would definitely be a Battle Muse viewed as a treasure by the country. And in addition to her proficiency of magic that far exceeded Liu Yu's understanding, it was unimaginable how impressive a hero she would grow into.

Mu Lengxi's future had endless possibilities!

Liu Yu and Feng Yuanlin were not the only ones that were affected by Mu Lengxi's voice. Earthbound Yaksha was also affected by it and was crying in bitterness.

It felt that there was an irritating sacred aura surrounding it. Grating sounds hummed in its ears as it suddenly felt its body turn extremely heavy. It was as if dozens of invisible chains were wrapped around its body while it constantly tightened. Its actions were severely restrained.

"Darn it!" Earthbound Yaksha regretted sorely that it did not kill Speechless and Mu Lengxi ten minutes ago. Now, it was tasting the bitter fruit of its inaction.

A struggle flashed in Earthbound Yaksha's eyes. It had made the same choice as it did previously. With an angry roar, it forcefully repressed the ill effects the voice had on it before turning around and slashing straight at the singing Mu Lengxi.

At that moment, Mu Lengxi looked like she was completely defenseless. It was also posing the greatest threat, so it was only right to be the first target to be finished.

"Pui! Shameless wretch, don't you dare think of harming her!" It was unknown when Feng Yuanlin had run in between Earthbound Yaksha and Mu Lengxi. He had used his mithril shield to withstand the sharp blade beam that surged over.

"Damn it!" Earthbound Yaksha cursed angrily.

The punk had only pretended to attack from the beginning, but he was actually protecting the singing girl?

Earthbound Yaksha immediately turned to charge at Feng Yuanlin. Even though the weak worm wanted to be a protector of women without knowing his own strength, it did not mind slaughtering him first before stepping over his corpse!

"Oh!?" However, just as Earthbound Yaksha turned around again, it felt an extremely dangerous aura emerge behind it.

"Courting death!"

Earthbound Yaksha roared angrily as it stamped on the ground with its right foot. With a twist of its torso, it had slashed towards it back with its astounding ability to twist!

But at the same time, the azure figure that it noticed had suddenly vanished into thin air when it turned back.

"Blind spot attack!?"

Earthbound Yaksha exclaimed in surprise. The azure figure had moved to a spot in its blind spot instantly with an intricate side step.

What keen judgment!

What a stunning reaction!

Earthbound Yaksha felt slightly alarmed, but its reaction was extremely fast as well. It immediately gave up on its counterattack. Suddenly, it charged forward in an attempt to dodge the sword that came slashing right towards it.

However, it failed to completely escape the peripheral blast of the sword beam. The sharp sword beams instantly lacerated its skin.

"Si!"

Earthbound Yaksha cried out in pain. The strike's sword beam contained a rich element of light. As an evil spirit, the light was able to hurt its physical embodiment. A visible laceration appeared on its back!

"Vaiśravaṇa Heavenly Slash!"

Earthbound Yaksha naturally would not stop its actions because of an injury. It immediately slashed out its powerful and famous blade technique at its assailant while there was a gap in between the assailant's attacks.

However, its assailant was not any amateur. Immediately, with a perfect leap backward, the assailant had completely dodged the attack.

Earthbound Yaksha finally managed to turn its head to discern the true identity of its assailant. Just as it guessed, it was indeed the sword-wielding azure-dressed girl.

"It looks like it twas not luck for thee to beest able to repress that foolish ox alone." Earthbound Yaksha squinted its eyes. It had no choice but to admit that it had underestimated the azure-dressed girl's strength. Her calmness, sharpness and machine-like precision combat style did not resemble that of a young girl in her teens. She clearly had the mental prowess of an old witch that had lived for countless years.

"Doth thee bethink the three of thee can repress me?"Earthbound Yaksha scanned Sunless, Liu Yu, and Feng Yuanlin, who stood in a triangular position around it. It was secretly furious. If not for the restraint the voice was giving it, it would not be in such a tragic state. But the current situation did give it a sense of defeat.

Repress? No, the three of us will slaughter you!" said Liu Yu coldly. He held a stack of talismans in his hand and could throw it into the sky at any time and produce any one of the eight incantations of Daoism.

Sunless' eyes were ice-cold as they stared intently at Earthbound Yaksha, as though she was waiting for the opportunity to kill it.

Other than that, the combat situation came to a temporary standstill that could have the flames of battle ignite again at any time.

At that moment, a sinister voice suddenly resounded.

"That's as far as it will go!"

Shadow Wraith, which had been silent for a prolonged period of time, finally took action. It had once again made a bold declaration as though it could press a pause button. Heaven Shrouding Eclipse's sword beam had already dissipated. There was no obstruction to the sunlight, and the shadow tentacles that it stretched out had successfully reached the feet of the trio!

"Ha, what a bunch of fools that do not learn their lesson." Earthbound Yaksha sniggered. It was relieved and did not expect that Shadow Wraith's repeat of his technique would actually be successful.

"Go fuck yourself as far as you can go!"

Suddenly, a boorish invective emanated from the other side of the battlefield!

Earthbound Yaksha turned its head and saw Speechless appearing less than a hundred meters away from Shadow Wraith without any warning. The shadow arms at his feet surprisingly extended in a strange way. The shadow arms that extended out a hundred meters suddenly clenched Shadow Wraith's neck at the moment Speechless's voice resounded!

Shadow Wraith cried in agony. The shadow tentacles that it had extended out retracted. Its jagged shadow outline began to convulse crazily.

"Well done!" Liu Yu guffawed in joy as he gave a big thumbs up to Speechless.

This attack that let it have a taste of its own medicine could be called perfect. Just as Shadow Wraith had reduced its presence to secretly extend its shadow tentacles towards the trio that was facing Earthbound Yaksha, Speechless had lowered his presence as much as possible as well. He had then used Mirror Replication to replicate 'Shadow Shackles' and sent his own shadow tentacles towards Shadow Wraith!

This was an intense exchange of placing each other in 'check' on a figurative game of chess. Speechless had used his excellent ability and intelligence to counterattack Shadow Wraith alone!

"The ones that will only go this far is the two of you!"

Speechless laughed crazily as he suddenly turned his head in a completely opposite direction in the battlefield. He took a deep breath and shouted forcefully at a name most people would consider odd.

"Pulp! Farmer! "

The name Speechless yelled with some hoarseness in his throat was Pulp Farmer, who did not participate in the triangular encirclement against Earthbound Yaksha despite being a melee warrior.

Yes, forcefully getting Liu Yu, a Daoist meant to gross out their opponent from a distance to the front lines to take on one corner of the triangular encirclement was not because the commanding brain behind the strategy was retarded, but because Pulp Farmer had to do something even more important!

Earthbound Yaksha and Shadow Wraith looked towards the direction in which Speechless had turned towards. Immediately, they saw the spear-wielding youth who unknowingly had retreated to a blind spot outside the battle zone. Then they saw a scene that could be considered odd.

Pulp Farmer had extended both his arms and with his head lifted high, his spear was erected beside him. Under the illumination of the sunlight, he looked as mighty as a silent sculpture of a god of war!

However...

White paper cranes were flying out of the mighty youth's palms that were extended upwards! One after another, the paper cranes were flying unendingly out of Pulp Farmer's palm!

The one thousand paper cranes were flapping their paper wings and flying towards the sky like sparrows.

Looking up at the sky, it was appalling to realize that in the endless firmament, there were countless pure white paper cranes flapping their wings. None of them were acting together. Instead, they were flying in a different direction toward the sky, as though they wanted to see every corner of the world.

When Speechless roared out his name, Pulp Farmer slowly opened his eyes.

That forbidding face that looked extremely firm and mature suddenly beamed radiantly in a way appropriate for his age.

"I found it!" Pulp Farmer yelled. The way he beamed was like a lost child that had managed to finally find his way home after overcoming challenge after challenge.

"I found the core of the formation!!!"

When this deafening yell resounded through the sky,

Speechless smiled.

Liu Yu moved the big thumbs up he had towards a different direction.

Feng Yuanlin raised his shield as he leaped in joy.

Tears stream down Mu Lengxi's eyes.

Sunless gaped slightly and emitted an 'ah' that she found hard to suppress...

Found it!

Found it!

Found it!

Shi Xiaobai...

The possibility of saving you has been found!

"No! Impossible!" Shadow Wraith yelled sharply.

In order to create the so-called 'despair', in order to fulfill their perverse idea of fun, it had informed the seven humans of the scheme and revealed secrets. One of the things revealed included that "killing Field Marshal Awesomo would not disable the God Slaughtering Formation" unless the formation core was destroyed.

And now, the formation core had been found!

"Impossible! Impossible! Impossible!"

Shadow Wraith was certain that if the mission failed in such a manner, as a pig-like teammate, it would definitely be tortured tragically by the heartless assessment program. That devil possessed the absolute rights to not only kill them but to deal with them in any way it liked!

Shadow Wraith fell into hysteria, but Earthbound Yaksha calmed down instead. It looked coldly at Speechless and said in a solemn voice, "Thy actions wast highly coordinated, with very clear goals. Wast all of this discussed by thee before hand?"

Earthbound Yaksha recalled the unease it felt previously. Yes, from the beginning, it had noticed that the humans' actions seemed to be coordinated ahead of time. The triangular encirclement, the shield youth protecting the singing girl in time, restraining Shadow Wraith...All of that appeared to have been played out according to a particular person's script. It was done with such verve like it had been planned!

But!

How was this possible?

The seven of them had clearly been restrained by Shadow Wraith. Not only could they not move, they could not even speak. How were they able to draw up such a highly coordinative plan?

"How didst thee doth it!?"
