Chapter 198 - Valiant Battle (XVI)

Thank you ChrysAmans for the support—Bonus Chapter (9/10)

Even if the strength of the monsters were not top-notch, but under the siege of so many monsters, everyone couldn’t help but be injured to a certain extent. Luo Feng was the one who was seriously injured, probably because he was not good in melee combat. Therefore, Abyss who was standing beside Luo Feng would take care of him frequently.

But even so, sometimes there were times when Abyss really couldn’t take care of him.

Xing Yan was the more relaxed one because all the monsters who dared to get close to him were torn apart by his invisible spatial blade, and probably due to his long-lost sense of teamwork reactivating, he and Duan Li cooperated well, and also took into account the safety of Ah Lan in the middle;

At the same time, Xing Yan would also find the opportunity to help Abyss. After finding that Abyss did not need his help, he seemed to feel a bit lost.

Unexpectedly, Qi Ling was very powerful. His hooks and claws were poisonous and infectious. A large group of them collapsed under the attacks of his claws. He also cooperated with Abyss to protect Luo Feng’s safety in close combat.

Luo Feng was actually the one with the strongest attack power. His long-range weapons probably belong to the kind with strong output. Unfortunately, his ability to survive was also quite weak. However, Luo Feng was probably used to being injured for a long time, and his recovery ability was also very good.

Ah Lan was very relaxed and happy in the middle of the team. He did not have to worry about being attacked by monsters. All attacks were blocked by the surrounding team members. All kinds of buffs and healing treatments were cast by him like they were free. He did not need to waste much energy and could dish out more spells to make the team more efficient.

Originally, it was a solid combination. They almost reached the gates of the church. But at this critical moment, no one knows what Qi Ling, who had been following the team, was thinking. He suddenly stretched out the hook of his claws and hooked Ah Lan by his arm. Ah Lan was originally standing in the middle and in the safety zone……

Ah Lan only felt a sharp pain in his arm. When he raised his head in shock, he saw Qi Ling who was in the team having some kind of ferocious and grief-stricken expression. Qi Ling whispered something in Ah Lan’s ear, and Qi Ling hooked onto his arm and threw him out. He was thrown out of the safety zone and right to the center of where the sea of monsters was.

And because this happened so suddenly, the players around who were only concerned about the monster group in front of them. Since they gave each other’s back to their trusted friends, they never expected to be met with a betrayal. And such acts of betrayal actually happened inches away from them.

No one could react in time. Even Abyss looked surprised. He instinctively reached out his hand and wanted to catch Ah Lan. But it’s too late because their hands failed to come into contact with each other in midair. Afterwards, Ah Lan was immediately engulfed by monsters. The slight fear on his face froze at this frame and was captured by Abyss’s line of sight.

When Feng YuLan’s life was on the line, no one could save him.

Ah Lan was very aware of this at this very moment. He had no time to think about why the guy named Qi Ling threw himself out and attacked him. Ah Lan had no time to think about this.

He just thought, how am I going to survive?

Was death something that could happen in such an instant?

Am I going to die?

Ah Lan fell to the ground, and the surrounding monsters swarmed around him. Each of them opened their bloody mouth wide, like a sacrificial bowl, and revealed their sharp fangs. Each one of them waved their sharp claws and howled. Ah Lan soon felt that his body seemed to be pierced by some monster’s claws. He felt a terrifyingly sharp pain in his chest.

Before he died, all his lost memories almost flowed to his brain like a tide. He raised his head up and turned to look at Abyss who was not far away from him. Abyss had already left the team, and like a moth attracted to a fire, his young body suddenly plunged into the sea of monsters.

He came towards him, and he held out his hand.

Ah Lan knew that as long as he could still stretch out his hand, he could still be saved. He knew that Abyss was very strong……it should be said that he was Luo Jian. Yes, he was Luo Jian, the friend he cared about and loved.

The one he entrusted all his trust.

Those feelings he had for him that could not even be compared to love.

But no, Feng YuLan had no strength. No matter how he tried to command his arm, he had no way to raise it up an inch. Those monsters were like starving ghosts holding him and grasping onto him……

Then, Ah Lan saw a burst of light.

These sacred lights were like messengers who dispelled the darkness, turning all the monsters around him to ashes. Soon, he saw Abyss crawling over in a panic, holding a crescent bow in his hand, with his face was covered with bright red blood.

“Ah Lan, you……Are you all right? “Feng YuLan heard the other party’s trembling voice.

He originally wanted to say that he was fine, but when he opened his mouth, a mouthful of blood surged up and muddled his voice. Abyss stretched out his hand to touch his face. The child’s hand was shaking, but his voice pretended to be calm, “It’s ok……It’s ok. I’ll cure you soon. There’s nothing wrong. You’re fine…”

Ah Lan felt warm blood dripped on his face. He tried to look at Abyss’s face clearly, but his vision was so blurred that Ah Lan vaguely felt that the surroundings of Abyss were shining. That might be because he fell into a trance due to the traumatic wound he had. But this person appeared so strong, yet so beautiful. It seemed that the darkness and coldness around him could be dispelled by this person’s aura.

Ah Lan did not know why, but he felt a little relieved. As long as he looked at Luo Jian, he felt at ease.

When his consciousness was about to dissipate, Ah Lan saw Duan Li coming. The man set his tang sword at the core of the array and set up a defensive formation within the monster pile to block the surrounding monsters. Then he knelt down beside him and seemed to want to reach out to hold him up. However, the blood on the ground made him feel helpless. He was at a loss and sought help from Abyss.

“You can save him, right?”

Abyss did not even have time to speak. He simply morphed his blade into a clown’s scalpel. But somehow, he was so flustered that his fingers were shaking in front of the friends he cared about.

“Stop the bleeding……you have to stop the bleeding first.” Abyss said over and over again, using ready-made clothes as cloth strips, constantly morphing his weapon to cast a healing effect. But inexplicably, Ah Lan’s wound recovered so slowly. It recovered so slowly that Abyss felt despair!

“By the way, it’s that bastard!” Abyss suddenly remembered that Qi Ling had attacked Ah Lan……and Qi Ling’s weapon was poisonous. It was a kind of poison that could corrode people. It made human organs fail from the inside, and……there was no cure for it.

In Asura Realm, Abyss never cared about this kind of toxin. He could be revived after being poisoned. Anyway, he could be revived……yes, it’s just this damned way of thinking that as long as he could be revived, nothing matters……

Abyss howled and slammed his fists to the ground. He urged himself to come up with a plan to save his friend quickly. Then he almost wanted to slap himself. He suddenly pulled an ear stud down from his ear, and he allowed it to fall to the ground directly.

The ear stud broke into pieces, and rays of light scattered in all directions. But soon, the light began to regroup and a figure appeared.

Clown appeared with a bewildered expression on his face.

However, before he understood the situation, he was pulled over by Abyss, and his face had almost planted on the ground. He almost looked like a dog had taken a bite on him. Following that, he absent-mindedly drew out his scalpel and began to treat Ah Lan according to Abyss’s wishes.

“F*ck, this is poisoning. And there are so many wounds.” Clown went to his carry-on secret chamber to find all kinds of medical equipment and began to toss it at Ah Lan.

But within a quarter of an hour, Clown’s forehead was covered with thin sweat. He frowned and said, “Is this poison a kind of skill? I can only stop the spread of the toxin, but I can’t stop his organ failure.”

“I don’t care! “Abyss almost started yelling, “You have to save him!”

Clown paused for a moment and replied, “……I understand. I’ll do it.”

Abyss rarely got agitated and rarely could not control his emotions, which made Clown take another glimpse at the child. He had never seen such an Abyss. No matter how bad the situation was, the tough child never showed any fear. Clown once thought that Abyss was as powerful as how he acted. However, it was so obvious that he’s vulnerable now.

The city of lawlessness was not a secret chamber space created by the secret chamber. Therefore, in this damned place, death was equivalent to truly dying here. There were no settings that could restore their ailments when they return to reality. Abyss wouldn’t expend so much effort just to have his cherished companions come out alive from the chambers and collapse to their deathbeds here.

He did not reach this step to witness such events happening, and he wouldn’t fight so hard for such a conclusion! He wanted to save his companions, and there shouldn’t be one less companion he didn’t save! To achieve this, he gave up almost all he had! His life, his time, and his fate that was constantly contradicting were all sacrificed. And in the end, the reward he got was to have everything conclude in this manner?!

How could he be reconciled to such an end!?

Abyss focused all his efforts to restrain himself from gnashing his teeth to not crazily seek revenge. Then, Xing Yan and Luo Feng over there joined hands to bring Qi Ling, who tried to escape, back. Qi Ling was beaten half dead by Xing Yan. His hands and feet were now lifelessly hanging, and he was lying on the ground in a miserable posture——Xing Yan would never be soft on betrayers.

“Why did you do that?” Abyss tried his best to force himself to stay calm. He asked the man who had fallen to the ground, but Qi Ling did not answer. His laughter sounded out from his hoarse throat. The laughter was harsh and unpleasant. Xing Yan frowned and stepped on his chest and made Qi Ling cough twice in pain.

Qi Ling was on his last breath. Half-dead, he spoke, “Why? The answer is in my pocket.”

Abyss stood up and went to Qi Ling. He groped in his pocket for a while. Unexpectedly, he found a piece of paper that was familiar to him. When Abyss saw this note, his heart chilled.

A few short words were written on the note, which roughly claimed that if Qi Ling would kill the people around Abyss before they entered the church, the reward given to Qi Ling by the chambers was that he could return to his relatives’ side.

“I’m just homesick.” Qi Ling was half-dead and gasping slowly. He seemed to have a faint hope in his eyes, as if victory was in front of him. He repeated this sentence, “I miss home……I want to go home.”

There were people here who acted for the sake of their goals and there were people here who struggled for the sake of their desires. Their convictions were so strong, and their desires were so intense. They were waiting for redemption, but God, couldn’t you see?

“I’m so sorry.” Abyss squeezed the note in his hand and slowly squatted down. He reached out and stroked Qi Ling’s messy hair. The man was already very weak, but the man still did not want to give up.

“I’m sorry, you don’t have a home to go back to.” Abyss was very cruel and said in a low voice, “From the moment we entered the city of lawlessness, the secret chamber has no intention of letting anyone……go out alive.”

Subsequently, Abyss left Qi Ling in that place and let the other party be surrounded by a group of monsters. But there was nothing to be worried about because Qi Ling would not die. Before Abyss left, he drew a defensive formation for him, which would allow him to struggle for a period.

Whether he could survive or die depended on his destiny.

Clown felt that the noisy and clamorous environment around him was not suitable for the patient to rest. He suggested that everyone should find a change in resting place. So, Duan Li picked up Ah Lan and the group walked towards the church in front of him.

The front of the church was covered with blood because of the fighting. They stepped on the snow-white steps in front of the gate of the church that was covered with bloody footprints. Although the monsters were guarding the church’s gate, they somehow refused to get close to the white gate of the church.

Feng YuLan’s condition was not very stable. Although Clown repeatedly told Abyss that he had basically stabilized the patient’s condition, Abyss was still very nervous. He frequently went to observe Ah Lan’s condition. Ah Lan seemed to have fallen asleep.

The other person who was nervous was Duan Li. His nervousness was very obvious because he never showed this kind of hollow and helpless expression previously. It was as if his calmness and arrogance were all thrown out of the sky by him, and as if he had no idea what to do. He held the mage in his arms carefully, for fear that he would accidentally lose him.

Currently, Xing Yan also felt Abyss’s unstable mood. He went to touch the other party’s head. On the spot, Abyss turned around and threw himself into Xing Yan’s embrace. He hugged his waist and rubbed against Xing Yan’s clothes. This action was very adorable and made Xing Yan’s heart flutter.

Then, they went to open the big gates of the church, allowing the scenery within the church to fall entirely within their line of sights.

In the church stood a statue of the Passion of Jesus. And in front of it stood a figure.
