Chapter 385: Two Tigers

Chapter 386: Two Tigers

Tang Ling had always believed Fatty was a capable person, but he did not expect Fatty to be this capable!

Not only did Fatty get the horses, but he had even gotten help!

Tang Ling had no idea how strong was the aid Fatty found, but he believed that they were a bunch of brave men! When they saw the red-robed bishop, they brought out a strange-looking weapon that resembled a big arbalest and it seemed like they were going to attack the bishop.

Roar!

The red-robed bishop shrieked strangely when he saw the big arbalest. Immediately, he turned away and flew in the opposite direction.

“Don’t let him escape! Hurry, load the Divine Armament!” the leader of the Rose Knights shouted furiously and fanatically.

After his command, seven to eight more Rose Knights, who were far more muscular than normal humans, answered loudly. They got in front of the big arbalest and pulled the string backward.

However, the big arbalest did not seem to cooperate. Even though there were seven to eight strong-looking knights stretching the string with all their might, all they did was move it a little.

Tang Ling was anxious just looking at it. He rushed over without any explanation, knocking over one of the Rose Knights and grabbing the string of the big arbalest with his hands.

“A friendly! He’s friendly!” Fatty explained in haste.

While Fatty was defending him, Tang Ling growled and poured in all his strength into stretching the string. Under everyone’s astonished gazes, he managed to completely stretch out the string!

“My gosh! He’s completely loaded the Divine Armament!” exclaimed one of the Rose Knights loudly.

The leader of the Rose Knights suppressed his excitement and instructed promptly, “Release! The red-robed monster from the cult is getting away!”

In less than three seconds, the red-robed bishop had flown at least 500 meters away.

Tang Ling looked up. Could he allow the red-robed bishop to escape? If he did, he would be able to get a window to catch his breath.

However, Tang Ling never sought stability. If he could kill, he would do so without hesitation. Therefore, he released the string without further ado.

Bang!

The string generated a powerful and heavy echo, making everyone within its proximity tremble and it slightly numbed their bodies.

After the loud boom, the arrowless arbalest fired out seven to eight light arrows that flew out like meteors.

The red-robed bishop, who was still gliding in the air, seemed to be a natural magnet for the light arrows. After the light arrows were fired, they flew towards him furiously following a tiny pause.

“Mighty warrior! You managed to pull the Divine Armament to its fullest. How strong are you?”

“Actually, the Divine Armament will fire a beam of holy light at the red-robed monster from the cult even if you don’t pull it to the fullest.”

“A single fully drawn attack will consume three months’ worth of holy light, but you are undoubtedly a brave warrior.”

After Tang Ling fired the light arrows, the Rose Knights around him started to speak relentlessly.

It seemed like Tang Ling pulling the string of the arbalest to the fullest was a jaw-dropping feat, so it astonished the Rose Knights. However, he was rather embarrassed by his own actions because he did not know that he did not have to pull it to the fullest. Now, he had used up the energy that the knights had stored within the bow for three months in a single attack.

The milky white light arrows were gaining on the escaping red-robed bishop. The arrows seemed to have a mind of their own. No matter how the bishop dodge, they were at his heels like the homing missiles from the old civilization.

The red-robed bishop was forced into a desperate situation. Any three of the holy arrows were enough to take his life and he would suffer irreparable damage even if one of them hit him.

He had no choice left but to use his last resort even if it would cost him a lot.

A regretful expression appeared on the red-robed bishop’s face that was covered in silver and black stripes. He quickly took a grail of sorts from his arms, and after a heavy gaze at the grail, he tossed it out.

As the grail flew mid-air, it attracted all the holy arrows instantly. The holy arrows stopped chasing the bishop and attacked the grail relentlessly.

One, two, three…a total of six holy arrows were shot at the grail and the impact caused a small explosion of dazzling white in the air.

After withstanding the attack of the six holy arrows, the grail seemed to have reached its limit. It shattered into pieces and a milky white glow burst beautifully in the air.

There was still one last holy arrow left, and without the grail acting as a distraction, it flew towards the red-robed bishop again. The holy arrow went through one of his wings and punctured a hole in his body.

“F*ck! That bastard Norden brought out one of the 24 Holy Grails of the Fallen Star!”

“This is the will of the heavens. If the holy arrows weren’t fired at their fullest, Norden would have escaped unharmed.”

“Kid, who are you? How did you know Norden was holding the Religious Noble of the Fallen Star?”

Many questions and discussions echoed in Tang Ling’s ears again, but he did not have the mood to answer any of them. He left the man with the blonde hair to Fatty and said, “Keep him alive whatever it costs.”

After that, Tang Ling sped out again without a second thought. He would be a fool if he did not go after the easy kill. He ought to strike the enemy at their weakest!

Tang Ling did not expect the tide of the battle to switch within 10 seconds. Besides, he wanted to know what he could get from killing the red-robed bishop.

…

Norden crashed on the ground badly after being shot. He was nervous, scared, anxious and furious.

Why? Why are the Rose Knights here? Is it because of the fake news about the Demon Infant’s descent? Even so, shouldn’t they be in Lucard Farm?! On top of their appearance, why did they bring their Divine Armament along? Are they plotting something on top of the already disastrous situation?

With that in mind, Norden thought of what the saintess had told him earlier, and he realized that he could no longer understand this world. Once chaos erupted, all schemes and plots would intercross, and it was not something a mere red-robed bishop like him could participate in.

Norden had no idea what had the situation become. He must hurry back to the headquarters at Aroma Tangerine Street and use some of the Demon Blood to repeatedly wash his wounds so that he could minimize the damage from the holy arrow.

Inhaling deeply, he endured the burning pain from his abdomen as he stood up and looked for the right direction before he ran towards the headquarters of the Fallen Star.

However, his thoughts were put to a stop soon enough because, at the end of the alleyway where he crash-landed, a robust figure appeared.

It was that goddamned outsider!

Norden’s eyes were gleaming with a flash of hatred. Had the outsider come to secure an easy kill?

Norden decided to teach him a lesson. He ought to let the outsider know that even when hurt, not anyone could come forth and take his life away easily. However, he must be quick!

I must be quick with the kill.

Tang Ling also shared the same thought. Two minutes had passed since his transformation, and he had to somehow kill the red-robed bishop in the next two minutes.

The one-minute reserve time was to prevent himself from falling into the weakened state since he would have to face an endless pursuit later on. Besides, saving a minute of transformation duration was also a wise way to deal with all kinds of unexpected situations.

The two of them wanted to end this quickly, hence they skipped the chatter and clashed in the narrow alleyway.

Upon clashing with Norden, to Tang Ling’s dismay, he realized that he had run into another powerful enemy. Despite being hurt, Norden’s basic abilities were still stronger than Tang Ling’s, and every part of his body was a weapon.

All six appendages could extend and retract at will, and all of them had sharp hooks at the edges to damage enemies. There were also sharp thorns at the joints besides two tentacles on the shoulders that could lash at the enemy like whips! The tentacles were flexible and could ambush the enemy at any moment during the fight. It would be difficult for one to predict and dodge the lashings of the whips.

Having a body of weapons, Norden’s offensive methods were a lot more flexible. It was a huge challenge for Tang Ling’s Precise Instinct and entry-level microsenses.

However, Tang Ling was never afraid of challenges. He might be depressed about the kill being less easier than expected, but he was also slightly excited at the same time.

He had to whet himself more! He had to sharpen his skills in tough situations and on the line of life and death so that he could realize the strength of two tigers.

Back in the real world, he had once asked Boss Huang about the fusion of the strength of nine bulls. It was about merging the strength equivalent to nine bulls together and bringing out 100% of the strength’s potential so that none of it would go to waste.

What about the strength of two tigers?

Boss Huang had told him, “The essence of merging the strength of nine bulls to its limit isn’t just about concentrating 100% of your strength and using it. It’s about making it work at 120% effectiveness, but you must first learn how to master the strength of two tigers.

“What is the strength of two tigers, you ask? Think about it. Is a tiger really stronger than a bull? Why is the tiger a predator and the bull a prey? You can view it as the advantage in body structure like the tiger’s sharp fangs and its flexible body that allows it to climb and sprint freely. Even the tiger’s tail possesses offensive capabilities.

“Correct, it is the predicament of body structure. The tiger can use its strength on a whole new different level. In comparison, the bull is like a tough piece of iron while the tiger is a tenacious piece of iron. Men have wisdom, and through the tiger’s body, they saw the presentation of strength on a whole new level. As for how you do that, you’ll need to find it out by yourself.

“Other people’s experiences and realization cannot help you at all because the merging of the strength of nine bulls is just a simple fusion, but the strength of two tigers requires your personal and unique colors. That is why I made you copy a tiger’s movements to recover the exhaustion your body went through. It’s beneficial to achieve the strength of two tigers. Look at how generous I am. I’m kin…”

Tang Ling ended his reminiscence with a sour look. He did not want to remember Boss Huang’s words anymore. No matter what Boss Huang said to him, it would eventually become a self-aggrandizing praise fest for his own work.

However, Boss Huang always provided useful information because, throughout the continuous battles, Tang Ling had been thinking about his teachings, especially in the battle with the white-robed apologist. Tang Ling realized that he already had a basic understanding of the strength of two tigers.

Therefore, he ought to treat the battle with the red-robed bishop as a battle to increase his understanding of the strength of two tigers!
