After obtaining the longsword, the man, who had been despairing because he knew he could not defeat Leon, suddenly gripped the sword tightly as if he had grasped a lifeline, and his eyes were filled with madness as he looked at Leon.
Since he wasn't an extraordinary individual, he immediately took up epic-level weaponry. His sword-wielding hand was sizzling with blue smoke, and his originally yellowish-brown skin turned black at a visible speed.
But he didn't care about all that. His desperate desire to survive made him instinctively ignore all the pain. He made a desperate gamble and charged towards Leon without regard for his own safety.
The man in front of me must die.
Because if he doesn't die, it's himself who will die.
Therefore, Leon, being ruthless and taciturn, quickly recited a line from a poem by Bai Li, and then a two-meter-high pillar of fire suddenly shot out in the man's path.
The man had acquired epic-level weaponry, but clearly lacked the experience and ability to fight against extraordinary beings. He died in agony amidst the pillar of fire.
Instant kill.
That's just the biggest difference between extraordinary people and ordinary people.
This is just like an invader with a gun versus an ordinary person with a shovel.
After killing the man, Leon didn't even have time to pick up the epic weapon on the ground before he was instantly teleported to another new space.
Inside this space was a gaunt man covered in blood. He had clearly just killed his opponent, but he didn't seem to be as lucky as Leon. His opponent appeared to be evenly matched with him.
After realizing that the other party was not one of those ruthless individuals like Hammer, Raven, or Steel Bar, whose strength surpassed his own, Leon breathed a sigh of relief.
Leo did not intend to treat either of them. Thanks to good luck, Leon was still in peak condition, but his opponent, although also an extraordinary being, was obviously very weak, so Leon had no choice but to kill him with a heavy heart.
However, this extraordinary individual, who was also of the Mithril rank, was a warrior. His desperate struggle was not to be underestimated, and Leon was injured as a result, though not seriously.
Leon discovered a loophole in the rules.
That is, the mechanism is that after killing the opponent, you will be immediately teleported to another location to fight another opponent.
Therefore, the faster you kill, the more battles you will need to fight. And that Obsidian-level vampire will not heal you, so the more battles you fight, the more your status will be worn down, which will be more disadvantageous.
So Leon told his third opponent about this loophole.
The third opponent was very satisfied with what he heard, so he decided not to rush into a life-or-death battle with Leon, and the two began to chat.
He was also from Fchester, named Masson, and lived in the poor district of Guberland, the capital, where he worked as an ordinary laborer.
Because the factory owner owed him a year's wages and then gathered a crowd to cause trouble, he accidentally killed the owner with a shovel in a fit of rage, and was subsequently imprisoned.
“That boss certainly deserves to die, but sir, what you’re doing is wrong. There are laws in Fchester, and you can report it to the local criminal department.”
After hearing about Mason's plight, Leon sighed.
“Of course we know that. We went to the local criminal investigation department, but they simply didn’t take our case. The head of the local criminal investigation department has taken a lot of bribes from the boss, and he completely ignores us.”
Ma Sen angrily denounced, "These beasts! I don't regret killing him, I just regret it. I'm sorry to my family. I don't know how my wife and children are doing now. Two years have passed. He should be about to take his high school graduation exams, right? He's always had good grades. He should be able to get into a good university, but—if he gets in, will he have the money to go to school?"
Staring at the empty white wall, Ma Sen sighed deeply, as if he were talking to himself.
Leon remained silent, unsure of what to say. He knew that no matter how eloquently he offered words of comfort, it wouldn't change anything.
He can't save them.
"Do you also live in Guberlan?"
Mason suddenly asked.
"Yes."
Leon answered.
“My home is in the public housing at 1109 Ravi Street. If you get out of here alive, please help my wife and children.”
Ma Sen said earnestly.
"Well, I will definitely do it."
Leon nodded slightly.
The information about Masen is still stuck in Guberlin two years ago.
Leon wouldn't tell him that a year ago, in order to expand productivity, the Fchester Empire redeveloped the slum of Ravi Street, forcibly demolishing a large number of residential buildings, leaving countless people homeless and destitute, most of whom starved to death on the streets...
"Then I can rest assured."
Mason laughed, "Kill me in a bit. I know I can't possibly be your match."
"gentlemen……"
Leon's body trembled slightly.
"There are only three people left alive. Are you two going to fight or not? If you don't fight, we can't determine the final winner."
Riot's voice suddenly came, "Old man, you're still hiding your epic weapon, you don't need to do anything with it."
Epic weapons?
Yes, even ordinary people are equipped with epic-level weaponry as standard.
Leon suddenly realized something.
He then looked at Masen in front of him.
Masen grinned slightly and then extended his right hand, which had been behind his back.
His right hand was clad in a sharp claw that emitted a purple glow and exuded an evil aura.
The horse was very fast, and at that distance, Leon had no chance to dodge. His chest was pierced directly by the sharp claws.
Fortunately, at the last moment, Leon suddenly shifted his body, and it was his right chest that was pierced instead of his left. Otherwise, if his heart had been pierced, Leon would have died instantly.
That guy, Masen!
He kept telling himself about his tragic experiences to lower his guard so he could deliver a fatal blow.
Tsk, I actually got tricked by such a nobody.
Leon, oh Leon,
You really can't be too soft-hearted when you're dealing with people.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Daniel, everything I told you was the truth. The only lie was that I wanted you to kill me, because I really want to live."
Masson leaned close to Leon and whispered, his hand thrashing violently, trying to crush Leon's lungs. Even if he missed, Leon would surely die.
cough cough...
Despite the burning pain in his lungs, Leon suddenly hugged Mason tightly, who was standing close to him.
"Burn."
Leon softly uttered a word in the language of Guberly poetry.
His body temperature then spiked rapidly.
"What are you doing!"
Masson sensed Leon's abnormal body temperature and suddenly realized something was wrong. He shouted and tried to break free from Leon, but Leon held him tightly.
"Let me go! You bastard!"
Mason cursed, but it quickly turned into painful howls.
Because Leon's body was engulfed in flames, these flames did not harm Leon, but they did burn Mason.
In just a few seconds, Masen was reduced to ashes.
"What a wonderful battle! But—Mr. Daniel, in your current state, can you defeat the last opponent?"
"Li Audie said with a grin."
At this moment, Leon still had that epic claw weapon stuck in his chest.
The claw was deeply embedded in Leon's flesh; pulling it out directly would only hasten his death.
Leon lowered his head slightly. The sight of his own flesh and blood, a mangled mess, connected to his chest, made him feel nauseous. It reminded him of a movie he'd seen called Operation Red Sea, where a car exploded and the agonizing screams of survivors inside...
Ah……
Leon gasped, and in doing so, he also inhaled a mouthful of blood from his trachea.
With his lungs severely damaged, even something as simple as breathing has become incredibly difficult and painful for Leon.
Blood was blocking his trachea, causing a choking sensation, but Leon couldn't cough no matter what he did.
This epic weapon seems to have a built-in ability to recover from interference, but Leon's use of his spirituality and the automatic recovery ability of his superhuman physique was completely ineffective.
It's terrible.
This time, he messed things up.
If you die, just die.
Anyway,
I was just an ordinary person on Earth, someone who only knew how to hide under the covers watching anime and reading novels, living a mundane life.
Even if I were transported to another world.
He was still a useless prince.
It should have ended a long time ago...
but,
But why am I so unwilling to accept this?
I've clearly worked so hard...
They tried so hard to live!
But I know perfectly well that...
I'm not a coward who's afraid of dying at all!
I'm so unwilling to accept this.
That imagined, damned, hateful, and elusive happiness.
It's so simple, so why is it so difficult to actually pursue it?
Leon struggled desperately against the suffocating feeling that meant death. He clenched his fists in despair, but the weakness caused by lack of oxygen made it impossible for him to clench them tightly.
His consciousness began to waver.
Suddenly he felt his body become light and airy, and all the pain seemed to disappear.
He found himself in a land of only darkness.
Suddenly, a glimmer of light appeared in the darkness.
A voice devoid of emotion came from the illusion.
"Hero, I sense your intense desire. Let us become one, and I will grant you the power to cleave this chaos."
Ps:
Chapter Thirty-Nine: Who exactly is he?
"Watching these humans kill each other is no more interesting than cricket fighting."
Ridio sat on a long wooden bench, looking at the image on the wall in front of him.
It's like watching a movie projected onto a projector.
The image shows Leon, who is on the verge of death but is still struggling in pain.
At this moment, Leon was covered in blood, with bright red blood bubbles coming from the corners of his mouth and even his nostrils.
Blood was aspirated into the lungs through the trachea.
If it were an ordinary person, they would have died long ago.
"Lady Charlene."
Suddenly, the two vampire guards standing behind Ricardo bowed.
Upon hearing that it was Sharin, Lydid slowly stood up.
"Lady Shalin, I have already repaired those traitors for you—"
