Chapter 780: Final Airborne Battle (2)

…

One of the young contestants named Hao Long is currently scanning his surroundings while watching the battle that is happening about 2 kilometers away from where he is currently hiding. After seeing the skirmishes below, he frowns and did not want to intervene. However, he soon discovered that something is weird from the bodies of the group that are attacking those two people.

That was something that he loathes the most and he has a deep grudge against those things. Because of them, he was chased and was forced to hide. He has already contributed a lot for the human race, and yet was treated like a rag, so how could he not resent those things?

And because of them, he was forced to work in the shadows while still trying to help.

Those slightly dark auras in the bodies of those people are a sign that they are being controlled by the shadows.

But what Hao Long could not understand is the reason why those things could not be detected by the saint rulers and was in this tournament? He was a bit baffled by this and wanted to investigate deeper.

And now that he is seeing those things again and at this contest for that matter, so how could he let this chance slip by?

Without a second thought, he began to take out his gears and then created an array formation in the air. He then combined those array formations with his equipment.

Then after everything is prepared, he quickly positioned himself and slowly extended the barrel of his rifle from within the bushes.

After setting his sight at the leader of the group, he did not waste time and quickly pulled the trigger.

Bang!

The bullet broke the sound barrier in an instant and immediately arrived a few meters in front of John Moss. But for some unknown reason, one of the people beside him suddenly step forward while chanting a spell to attack those two people already struggling in the fight.

At that time, John Moss has also acted and is ready to attack Linja Ya.

Puchi!

The bullet penetrated the head of that man blocking the bullet's path with ease, and his head exploded like a pumpkin while the bullet itself exited on the other side and continue with its path towards John Moss.

At this time, John Moss was not able to detect that bullet until it is already too late.

However, by luck, his life was spared as his body has already moved forward and the bullet hit his shoulder instead.

The bones and the flesh on his shoulder were shattered by the strong impact force severing his arm in the process. His barrier was of no use as the barrier uses the shadow aura which is weak against the light element covering the bullet.

Caught off-guard, John Moss's figure flew weakly out of his flying artifact. Yet before he could hit the ground, his flying artifact caught him in the air.

With a mangled shoulder and missing arm, John Moss began to howl in pain. Just like a wounded beast, he roared in the air which caught the attention of everyone around him.

Linja Ya and Suha Loo were also surprised at this scene and did not expect that John Moss would be wounded that heavily.

Linja Ya did not waste this opportunity and quickly acted. She grabs something from her back and a small dagger appears. Without hesitation, she suddenly threw the dagger in the air as it floated. Then using her domain, she controlled the dagger to fly towards the necks of her enemies who have been distracted by the wailings of John Moss.

Puchi! Puchi! Puchi!

A few figures fell on the ground and have died in an instant. But before she could react, she saw something flying and penetrated those falling bodies.

She was shocked and turns her sight to the direction from where those projectiles came from. At this time she knew that someone is deliberately helping her and Suha Loo, as she has now heard a few loud thundering sounds from afar.

Hao Long, on the other hand, shifted his sight away from John Moss. His target has already activated his barrier and shield to protect himself. So he did not want to waste his time attacking a turtle. Instead, he shifted his sight towards the others. He could not let those people die without purging the shadow aura. This is because he knew that the shadow aura would fly to the next available host and control that host.

And the next available hosts are Linja Ya and Suha Loo.

"Come out you coward!" the voice of John Moss doomed as he glared at the direction where those booming sounds came from.

Hao Long, at this time, suddenly felt a dangerous premonition coming from his side. He did not hesitate to dodge to the left. But before dodging, he rapidly fires and empties the cartridge of his rifle.

Midway while dodging, he actually showed a smirk at the figure who suddenly materialized beside him and swung a long blade towards his neck.

After rapidly firing that barrage of bullets, the group that has surrounded Linja Ya and Suha Loo has already fallen dead to the ground. 

John Moss is glaring in Hao Long's direction as he has already noticed him. He realized what is happening, and his train of thoughts really scared him.

This is because those are special projectiles that can purge the shadow aura in their bodies. As a shadow being parasite inside a human body, he could not let himself be killed just like that. He has been in this body for a few weeks and has enjoyed living as a human.

He could not let himself be killed and disappear inside the void just like that. So he needs to struggle for his own survival and happiness.

His companion has already begun attacking that person and he needed to finish those remaining two before he could help his companion.

Thinking up to this point, John Moss suddenly brandishes the large anchor in his hand as his body glowed with power.

He suddenly flew like a cannonball towards Linja Ya.

But before he could approach her, he suddenly stopped and dodges to the right as he suddenly feels a dangerous premonition.

Once bitten, twice shy… how could he let himself fall to the same trick that his enemy pulled?

Following that quick movement, he shifted his gaze to the figure that suddenly flew near him.

Hao Long has already killed his companion in that short period of time and is now floating about 30 meters away from John Moss.

"How dare you interrupt me?! I will make sure that you will end up dead and become my slave!" shouted the already angered John Moss as he let go of his weapon and suddenly takes out a black box from his spatial pouch.

When Linja Ya and Suha Loo saw this, they frowned. This is because; in this contest, no one is allowed to use such an artifact. So how could the judges permit such an artifact to appear?

They are expecting someone to appear at this time, but it seems that the judges high up in the sky are just watching this event being unfolded without interfering.

Suddenly, the figure of John Moss contorted as his bleeding shoulder suddenly began to deform and a strange event happened.

His mangled shoulder slowly transformed as golden blood flew out and suddenly grabs some of his dead companions on the ground.

The blood seems to be eating the flesh of his companion and in the process, his arm grew out and was transformed into an arm that looks horrifying.

"The devouring technique of the demon race…" Linja Ya said as her beautiful eyes went wide in disbelief.

"You… you're a demon!" she shouted while pointing at John Moss.

At this time, Linja Ya and Suha Loo have already recovered a bit from their wounded state due to Hao Long's intervention, and now they are on guard as they did not expect that a demon would appear in front of them.

"So this tournament is this shameless… I do not believe that the saint rulers and the judges have not seen this. Oh, how could they fall this low? Are they also possessed by the shadow beings?" said Hao Long with a sneer.

At this time, within the great cities of the human race, everyone was silent. They have never expected that such an event would be shown in front of everyone. And those words from Hao Long truly terrified them.

How could the saint rulers fall under the enemy? This would be the greatest threat to humanity then...

The saint rulers watching this scene, on the other hand, showed a serious expression on their faces as they did not expect that such a lowly immortal would berate them and expose such a thing in front of the masses.

Although the demon influence is part of their plan, yet they did not want it to be exposed this early. To temper the young, they needed to create a greater challenge for them. But they never expected that John Moss would show the demon skill in front of the masses which made the situation complicated.

They are now thinking of ways to handle this messy affair and how to get that young immortal to stop interfering with the plan.

At this time, one of the lords suddenly appears in the middle of Hao Long and John Moss. Then with a wave of his hand, he restrained John Moss with his domain.

"This demon will be punished… But I would advise this young man that should watch your tongue… the saint rulers and the leaders are not easily provoked." That lord said with a cold tone as he turns around to drag John Moss away.

John Moss who is now being restrained growled in anger. But then a slight smirk appears in the corner of his mouth. He knew that with the help of that lord his life would be spared. He can be killed by anyone as he could just resurrect afterward, however, that young man is an exception as he could dissipate the shadow aura in his body.

As the eyes of John Moss and Hao Long met, John Moss saw Hao Long showing a wide grin on his face.

This grin sent shivers running down his spine following a dangerous premonition.

And he knew at that time that he is already in danger.
