Stuck in a Chinese novel - Chapter 475
Chapter 475: Finally…
Chapter 475
“Kugh!”
“It’s stronger than we thought!”
“What do we do now?!!!”
Wei Jun dismissed the ramblings of his teammates and the others and kept his focus on the screen before him.
[Death Qi +10,000]
[Death Qi +10,000]
[Death Qi +10…]
[Death Qi +…]
[Death Q…]
[Death …]
[Dea…]
[…]
[…]
[…]
Finally, the scale stopped.
[Absorption no longer possible]
[Power emission is not connected to the source]
Just then…
Boom!!!
A strong wave shook the city, throwing everyone away, but that wasn’t what everyone was worried about. What they were worried about was what was to come after that.
A wave strong enough to kill them all.
Just then…
“NOW!!!”
Wei Jun yelled, and up above in the sky, covered in a green round shield, Natasha finally completed and executed her spell.
[Bind!!!]
Eight green magic circles appeared around the man who was on the verge of releasing all of the Qi in his core, and from those green magic circles, chains emerged and bound the man, dispelling the Qi immediately.
“GO! It won’t last for long!!!” Natasha yelled as she manipulated the chains with her hands, where there were two green magic circles, controlling the eight circles around the man.
Grab!
Grab!
On one side, Luo Li grabbed the man by one shoulder while he was still struggling. Commander Yan joined from the other side, grabbing his left shoulder.
“Lightning bind!”
Song Huan also pointed his sword at the man, and a chain of lightning emitted from it, hitting the man.
“Argh!”
The man grunted in pain as the lightning shock left him immobilized, but it didn’t disappear and kept him immobilized and delivering pain at the same time.
[Dragon’s Wrath]
Morial executed his unique authority from some distance away, putting ethereal pressure on the man. Although he wasn’t a full dragon yet, he was still strong enough and had quite a bit of dragon blood due to his being a draconian.
The red pressure fell on the man like a wave of water and kept him immobilized, though he still struggled with all of his might.
Finally, the nail in the coffin was…
Tham!!!
Wei Jun slammed the man from behind and locked his arms around his neck, grabbing him in a rear choke.
Even with all of that, and all of them expending their full power, the man still struggled, and they all knew soon enough he would be able to break free.
[Absorption can now be executed]
But even that struggle didn’t last for long.
The man began to feel his power leave him, no matter what he did, his power proving to be insufficient, and it wouldn’t be long before he would lose all of what he had.
“No!!!”
He said between gritting his teeth. He would rather lose everything than lose everything to him, the young man whom he didn’t even consider a pest, let alone a danger to himself.
“I!!! Wouldn’t!!! Give!!! IT!!! TO!!! YYYYOOOUUU!!!!”
“Kyahh!!”
“Argh!”
“Kugh!”
Everyone struggled to hold on, to keep the man immobilized, but all said and done, they were still facing a strong enemy with years of experience and willpower behind his movements. Of course, they wouldn’t be able to keep him immobile for long.
But…
“Don’t even think about it!” Wei Jun yelled.
[Will of the roaring dragon]
[Will of the roaring dragon]
[Will of the roaring dragon]
[Will of the roaring dragon]
Constantly hitting him with internal shocks, Wei Jun targeted the man’s Qi core to the maximum capacity to hit him where it hurt the most.
Finally…
Step…
In all that struggle, one step couldn’t help but be hidden. The man looked at the black haired woman with a dull sword in her hand, her steps slow and her hair disheveled.
However, her piercing blue eyes never lost their focus. She kept her gaze on the man and kept walking towards him until she was just inches away from him.
“That’s my girl.” Wei Jun said with a smirk on his face. There was no trace of the white haired woman on Yan Rong anymore, and her anger surged and threatened to swallow them all.
“Her name was…” Yan Rong spoke as she raised her sword and placed the tip on the man’s chest where his heart was, “Yan Meng.”
Push!!!
“”Kugh!””
Wei Jun and the man both grunted, their chests pierced, but only one of them had a frozen expression on their face.
The man tried hard enough to search for such a name in his memory, but none came up. However, one thing did come up in his memory, and he said…
“Frost Empress’s body.”
He looked at Yan Rong with light dimming in his eyes and said, “What a waste.”
His last words, accompanied by a hum of a strange power. While others thought his power would diminish with his death, they were severely wrong.
The hum of Qi began to shake the surroundings, and their bindings became undone.
Wei Jun immediately looked upwards and yelled…
“NOW!!!”
Natasha didn’t wait for a second and cast her second spell that she had prepared in advance. While everyone else was confused about what that command meant, their confusion soon disappeared as they found themselves away from the scene, at the edge of the city.
Realization dawned upon Yan Rong as she looked at the absent sword in her hand, the scene changed entirely, and her lover was nowhere near her.
“No…” She muttered, but as soon as she did…
Boom!!!
A strong explosion in the distance blew everything away, them, the remnants of the city, and everything else.
As they were struck by the strong force, Commander Yan moved to protect his daughter while Natasha, Song Huan, and Morial acted quickly to erect a barrier before them.
The explosion must have lasted for about two minutes before everything ended, fortunately for them, before their shields could crumble.
At that moment, they couldn’t feel anything. What they had felt always, even when Wei Jun was in a coma, in some other dimension, or even in a dungeon.
They no longer felt their connection to Wei Jun.
Crack!
Just at that moment, a crack appeared on Yan Rong’s skin that prompted everyone’s attention. She wasn’t alone, though. Natasha, Xia Lu, Morial, Xing Xiaomei, and those who weren’t present and were far away doing their own things experienced the same thing happen to them.
Zhrrooom!!!
Just then, they all witnessed a dark pillar rising in the same spot where Wei Jun and the man were, and their connection to Wei Jun slammed back to them like a full-speed train.
And what they felt, only his teammates, horrified them deeply.
Fear they had never felt before. Fear of Death.
In the middle of the city, in the middle of the dark tower, Wei Jun stood without an apparent expression on his face. He looked at the notifications before his vision and couldn’t help but chuckle softly.
“Welcome back.”
[It’s good to be back]
[…]
[…]
[Host]
“Hahahahahaha.”
[Death Qi limit in the user has been reached]
[Absorption would no longer occur]
[Detected danger to the user]
[Power would be absorbed forcefully]
[Absorbed power would be diverted to another source]
[Detected source to be the party members of the users]
[Absorbed power not suitable for the party members]
[Conversion to respective elements not possible]
[Alternative approach is being checked]
[Check complete]
[Body reformation has been deemed to be a perfect solution]
[Body reformation of all party members would occur]
[Warning]
[Power still remains]
[Conversion is no longer possible]
[Threat to the user has been deemed to be at mid-stage]
[Survival chances of the user: 79%]
[The user is advised to retreat to a safe position]
[Explosion imminent in 10… 9…]
Wei Jun didn’t think for another second and bolted towards the outskirts of the city and away from the source of the explosion that was soon to come.
Boom!!!
He wasn’t that much far away when the explosion occurred and blew him and whatever was left of the city away. The city, now nothing but an open ground where even the rubble or the underground network didn’t remain, seemed haunting to those who could still see it.
Crack!
Crack!
Shatter!
Finally, the party members who were going through body reformations were done with their transformations, and the end result shook those who didn’t experience it.
“Owww~~~”
Far away, still somewhere in the confines of the city, Wei Jun lay on the ground with a pained expression on his face, but there was a smile to negate that as well.
“Hahahaha!!!”
“HAHAHAHA!!!!”
He laughed like a madman soon enough as the multiple notifications in his vision delivered nothing but good news.
[I think you need therapy, host]
“HAHAHA~~~ Shut up! I’m happy!!!”
[Still, no need to laugh like a lunatic]
[You’re giving me serial killer vibes]
“I am a killer, though.” Wei Jun said as he stood up, finally healed and better than ever. From the corner of his eyes, he read one notification again and again and again and again and he still wasn’t tired yet.
“Now it finally feels like the world is on my side for once.”
