Chapter 585 - 280: Instant Kill of Heroic Spirit
The speed of the bronze spear was too fast. Chu Xiu’s right hand with the Great Sun Guard Shield hadn’t yet been raised before it was hit!
"Bang!"
Amidst the sharp sound of metal collision, a crack visible to the naked eye appeared on Chu Xiu’s Profound Evil Glaze Armor. Under the impact of the Battle Rune Evil Qi, it rapidly expanded until large areas shattered!
And the bronze spear continued to penetrate through Chu Xiu’s body without losing momentum!
"Wow!"
Chu Xiu spat out a large mouthful of blood and fell downward.
This scene put a relaxed smile on the faces of all the Civilization Envoys.
"You, being in the Summoner profession, dared to challenge [Doomsday] with only two pieces of Legendary Armor for protection. Should we say you are overconfident or just overestimating yourself?"
"However, this is often a mistake made by Low-tier Civilizations unfamiliar with the Abyss."
The crowd completely let down their guard. If they had a shred of doubt that Chu Xiu might be acting, this thought was now completely dispelled. Breaking a precious piece of [Legendary] Equipment, along with severe self-injury, if this was an act, then they would accept it.
"Don’t be careless, proceed with the original plan and launch a full-scale attack," Meng Xuanshu said.
"Yes!"
The crowd responded in unison, the bronze spear once again condensed in Tuoba Ye’s hand, with intense Blood Evil Qi steaming from him. Other Civilization Envoys also took out their weapons, each being extremely powerful King Tier Legendary Equipment!
Waves of enormous energy arose, and the fifteen Civilization Envoys exuded an astonishing aura. At the same time, dozens of Blood Demon followers roared, attacking Chu Xiu from all directions!
Even though Chu Xiu managed to raise a thick Demonic Qi, forming a barrier in front of him, and held the Great Sun Guard Shield horizontally in front of himself, under the successive attacks, his whole equipment shattered, blood spewed from his mouth, and his body suffered further severe injuries.
This caused Aurora and others watching from afar to turn pale, as the enemy’s strength far exceeded their expectations!
But just as everyone was about to deliver a fatal blow to Chu Xiu, suddenly a powerful and terrifying aura exploded from afar, rapidly approaching the battlefield!
Meng Xuanshu’s face changed slightly, cursing softly: "Ignorant lower creatures."
The other Civilization Envoys also looked impatient. According to the plan, the Blood Demon should have kept its true body hidden, never to be exposed no matter what happened.
But evidently, the Blood Demon did not trust them. After all, for the Civilization Envoys, it was enough to kill Chu Xiu, while the Blood Demon needed Chu Xiu alive to maximize the power of the Blood Demon followers.
Now seeing Chu Xiu in mortal danger, it couldn’t help but intervene.
However, the Civilization Envoys did not stop it.
With the situation set, there was no need to break ties with the Blood Demon.
Tuoba Ye laughed, "Brother Meng, aren’t you being a bit too cautious? For Civilization Envoys from such low-level civilizations to have such strength has already exceeded our expectations. Now that he is seriously injured, how could he possibly pose a threat to a Heroic Spirit level expert? Especially against the Blood Demon renowned for its tenacity in life force."
"Since we’ve promised to satisfy this Blood Demon, what’s the harm in doing so?"
Meng Xuanshu frowned: "No matter how strong this Blood Demon is, it’s only a simulation of the Abyss. Once the trial ends, it will dissipate. Now forcibly rushing out will only create unnecessary variables. Even if it only provides a 0.01% chance of victory for the opponent, we should not take that risk."
"If we make a mistake on such a minor task, it will be a disgrace to our civilization."
Meng Xuanshu’s words left the other Civilization Envoys speechless. The task of assisting in the [Doomsday] trial was one of high reward and high level in their civilization’s hall, yet in Meng Xuanshu’s mouth, it seemed hardly worth mentioning.
He sighed lightly: "But now that things have come to this, we can only proceed with the original plan. Everyone immediately move to guard the Blood Demon."
"Yes!"
The group of Civilization Envoys responded in unison.
They had special Abyss communications, allowing them to exchange detailed information in a very short time. Therefore, almost the instant the Blood Demon’s aura was revealed, the fifteen Civilization Envoys reacted immediately. They rushed into the sky, and powerful Defense Skills formed around them.
Though they executed Meng Xuanshu’s orders, they were somewhat dismissive in their hearts, thinking he was too cautious, overly worried.
Some even refrained from deploying Defense Skills, opting to continue closing in on Chu Xiu for fear of missing the opportunity. If those civilians escaped, Chu Xiu might flee unburdened, and if he managed to break through the encirclement by luck, they might not be able to kill him today. They would lose a significant portion of the reward, leaving later Civilization Envoys the advantage.
Tuoba Ye was among them, the bronze spear reforming in his hand, ready to deliver a fatal blow to Chu Xiu. But just then, his expression changed dramatically, sensing an intensely dangerous aura.
Despite being bloodied, with multiple fractures visible on his bones, Chu Xiu appeared very battered. However, in his calm black eyes, there was no panic; instead, quietly surveying him and the others.
Tuoba Ye was all too familiar with that look. It was the gaze of a Hunter locking onto its prey; calmly analyzing weaknesses, waiting for the moment to release that deadly arrow!
Every hair on his body stood on end, and Tuoba Ye roared angrily, pouring bloodthirst like it cost nothing into the bronze spear in his hand, activating his arm muscles, and hurled it forcefully at Chu Xiu.
