Chapter 2108: with translation of chapter title

Damn it! All of you, retreat!!

Get lost!!

Whoosh!! Boom!!

Amidst the roars, hundreds of supersonic Shockwaves instantly detonated the entire cave.

Everyone scrambled to grab it, and within just a few seconds, all rushed out at top speed.

For a moment, the cave was like a superstorm, with vast amounts of rule light violently colliding, erupting in intense fluctuations.

The scene was utter chaos.

Faced with wealth that could change destinies, no one could remain unmoved; even the War Slaves in the team couldn't help but fly madly.

Charging ahead, Nord's eyes turned blood-red; under the stimulation of the Equipment, his mind was filled only with the three words 'Silver Star Level'!

(Got it in hand! I'm number one! No, I can be invincible!)

Without mentioning anything else, the value of this spatial Equipment alone is enough to drive him mad!

Greed clouded his mind; seeing the others ignore orders, Nord's head rang with a sound, and a nameless fury instantly occupied his thoughts.

In his rage, he actually backhanded a swipe, sending a dimensional rule slamming backward.

Kill kill kill kill!!

All of you go die for him! Go die! No one can take his stuff!

Screech!

Killing intent erupted; the silver-black spatial rules turned into a grim blade, slashing out violently at extreme speed.

At such close range, the deputy behind him could not react at all, and within 0.01 seconds was cut in two by that black line. Before dying, that poor War Star Level traveler didn't even have time to let out a miserable cry. The body, sliced cleanly, continued flying by inertia, slamming straight into Nord's front!

Boom!!

Blood mist exploded, and the rich smell of blood instantly filled the entire underground cave.

Whether it was the deputy's gruesome death that startled them or not, for a moment everyone was horrified and froze stiff.

However, compared to the teammates startled by the blood, Nord had no intention of waking up; the next second, his insect wings burst out from his battle armor, and streams of rule power erupted violently.

Such a crazy move was clearly meant to kill everyone!

Captain!?

Nord!!

Fuck!! Run! Run fast!! Captain's gone mad!!

The outbreak of battle was so abrupt.

Faced with the completely out-of-control Nord, everyone had to hastily engage. In the extreme chaos, a brutal slaughter thus began.

Seventeen seconds later.

Boom!!

Accompanied by a deafening self-detonation blast, the original hundred-strong team suffered near-total casualties; the vast cave resembled a fresh slaughterhouse, with mutilated corpses floating everywhere.

After killing until their eyes turned red, the squad that had numbered over a hundred before entry now had only a single War Star Peak survivor, gravely wounded.

Hah... hah...

The traveler gasped heavily.

Although he wasn't killed by the final War Star's self-detonation, his severe injury left him somewhat mentally unhinged.

Seeing this final traveler, he didn't even tend to his abdominal wound; his body swayed, then he suddenly burst out laughing, dragging his intestines as he lunged toward the severed hand amid the corpse pile.

My... belt is mine...! All mine!

As if cradling the world's ultimate treasure, after obtaining the belt, the traveler fumbled to put it on.

However, just as he wrapped the belt around his lower abdomen, a strange blood light burst forth from the belt.

Whoosh!

Boom!

Red light pierced his body, and his skull exploded.

Clearly a spatial Equipment belt, yet at this moment it acted like a poisonous snake, blasting through his forehead.

The headless corpse swayed and fell; thus, the entire squad had no survivors left.

At the same time, Lin An, who had been waiting at the entrance, couldn't help but grip his weapon tightly.

The deceased travelers likely didn't realize that the Silver Star Level belt they saw was, in Lin An's eyes, merely a section of spine attached to the cerebellum.

Illusion trap!

After this group of travelers entered the cave, this segment of corpse from an unknown powerful being silently dragged everyone into an illusion!

What a bizarre ability; I don't know what rules this corpse had when alive, yet it can generate illusions to kill even after death.

But this thing seems to have exhausted its power...?

Lin An silently watched the falling spine.

Perhaps the remaining power had been depleted, or maybe it 'knew' it couldn't kill him; at this moment the belt lay motionless, like a true dead object, dropping onto the center of the floating corpse pile.

Lin An slightly shook his head, his expression complex.

He wasn't regretting that these travelers had been wiped out like this; to him, the fact that this thing could eliminate them was also a good thing.

What made him hesitate was whether he should take this segment of spine.

This segment of spine is probably indeed from a Silver Star Level; valuing it, it's worth at least a few hundred points.

Moreover, Lin An slightly turned his head, looking at the corpse whose appearance was now indistinguishable.

That corpse was Nord's; he noticed that Nord, before being swarmed by the crowd, seemed to want to use some Props.

If nothing unexpected, this guy might still have a bottle of enhancement potion as a trump card.

Even a mosquito, no matter how small, is still meat.

After confirming there were no living people present, Lin An no longer hesitated and simply flew out.

Not far away, after just a few seconds, Lin An, wrapped in layers of barriers, appeared before the mountain of corpses.

Seeing the spine before him tremble slightly like a poisonous snake, Lin An did not relax his vigilance. He again added a thick layer of Faith Power to his right hand, then swiftly reached for the spine.

As if sensing it was about to be seized, the half-spine lying on the corpse shuddered and shot away with a whoosh.

Seeing the vertebra try to flee, Lin An didn't mind either.

He could tell its power was spent; it simply couldn't move.

He grabbed again with his right hand.

But the instant he touched the vertebra, this bone suspected to be of Silver Star rank instantly withered, as if encountering a natural enemy; the residual unknown power within instantly faded.

"Huh?"

"Can't touch Faith Power? Or does Faith Power counter it?"

Reacting extremely quickly, Lin An, somewhat surprised, halted his hand, avoiding destroying this segment of vertebra.

His eyes flickered as he gazed at the withered half-segment, as if turning to ash, the mysterious vertebra; a hint of thought crossed his gaze. It seems this thing is still tied to the Faith system; if he wants to take it for study, he likely needs to first dispel the Faith Power.

"Hum"

Faith Power slowly withdrew into his body.

But just as Lin An reached out again, a faint sense of danger suddenly welled up in his heart.

"Hum!!"

Instantly, the Faith Power he had withdrawn jerked to a halt, and his outstretched right hand froze motionless above the vertebra.

He abruptly lifted his head; Lin An's eyes swept past the vertebra, fixedly staring at the mountain of corpses before him.

"Interesting..."

"I actually almost got tricked!"

"Fake!"

"It's all fake!"

"The one truly disturbed by the illusion is him!"

"Boom!!"

"A sword strike!"

Upon realizing what lay before him, Lin An instantly mobilized his own rules and thrust a sword forward.

Zero point zero one second later.

Sword light shot up! With a crack, the cavern once filled with severed limbs and broken arms shattered like glass.

And before him stood hundreds of Heavenly Walkers with vacant eyes.

At a glance, it seemed as if layers of corpses surrounded him.
