Chapter 50: Blade of Annihilation: Gadi

As soon as Xiduo's voice fell, the iron chains binding Gadi were broken free.

"Die!"

Gadi was tortured by Xiduo to the point of agony, and his intense fury drove him to strike Xiduo down.

The short blade mercilessly stabbed into Xiduo's body, directly emptying her Blood Qi.

The Level 1 God-tier servant, the Pain Banshee, let out a soft moan before collapsing to the ground, then transformed into a ray of light and returned to the Hero Tomb.

【Your hero servant Xiduo has fallen; she can be summoned again in 12 hours!】

Upon seeing the notification after Xiduo was killed, Zhou Chu could not help but tremble all over.

Once a hero servant dies, it actually takes 12 hours before they can be summoned again.

This is a disaster!

Without Xiduo, Zhou Chu can only rely on himself now.

At this moment, Gadi's Blood Qi is also about to hit rock bottom.

And although Zhou Chu has a bit more than him, if he cannot strike first and land a hit on his opponent, he might be the one to die.

A strong desire to survive keeps churning in Zhou Chu's heart.

He wants to live, not die!

Therefore, he had already prepared a backup plan.

Once he is killed by Gadi, he will immediately transform into Ghost Form to escape.

To be even safer, Zhou Chu took the opportunity to summon a Skeleton Crossbowman from the Contract Pool.

The outcome rests on this one move!

"Give me the Calamity Source Seed, and perhaps I can spare your life!"

Gadi did not attack immediately, but instead issued a warning to Zhou Chu.

At the same time, his eyes stared nervously at the Calamity Source Seed in Zhou Chu's hand.

It is clear that for Gadi, this Calamity Source Seed is more important than taking Zhou Chu's life.

Since that is the case, Zhou Chu feels a bit more confident.

But the decision to kill Gadi will absolutely not change!

"You won't have the chance to get it! I will finish you off first!"

Zhou Chu would, of course, not hand the Calamity Source Seed over to him.

He was seen quickly plucking the bowstring, shooting an arrow directly at Gadi.

And this S-Grade Calamity Hero is no pushover; his figure flashed, and he instantly arrived in front of Zhou Chu.

"No, I will be the one to finish you off first!"

Gadi revealed a cruel smile, and the short blade in his hand had already deeply pierced into Zhou Chu's chest.

This guy can actually use Teleportation!

Miscalculated!

Zhou Chu's eyes shook, and the moment his body was about to fall, he took the opportunity to throw the Calamity Source Seed in his hand far away, immediately followed by triggering the Ghost Form on the Calamity Ring.

【Your hero servant Xiduo has fallen; she can be summoned again in 12 hours!】

The Calamity Source Seed let out a hiss like a cry for help, looking as if it were about to fall to the ground.

Having already been kneaded by Zhou Chu, if it hits the ground now, it will immediately be smashed to pieces.

Seeing this, Gadi hurriedly leaped, stretched out his arm, and lunged desperately toward the place where the Calamity Source Seed was about to land.

At this moment, he looked just like a martyr who would stop at nothing.

"Use Poison Arrow, shoot him!"

Transformed into Ghost Form, Zhou Chu immediately issued an order to that Skeleton Crossbowman.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

A series of Poison Arrows, like leeches, rushed crazily toward Gadi.

One Poison Arrow hit Gadi's calf, making his body unstable, and the Calamity Source Seed was just about to hit the ground.

But at the very instant the Calamity Source Seed was to hit the ground, a transparent ball of light made of air wrapped it inside.

At the critical moment, the Calamity Source Seed escaped, and then it vanished.

At the same time, Gadi's body flashed in mid-air and also disappeared into the air.

"Damn it, let him get away!" Zhou Chu said bitterly, feeling unwilling.

At the last moment, Gadi successfully used his ability to control the void to not only get the Calamity Source Seed but also make a perfect escape.

This S-Grade Calamity Hero really has some tricks, and this Void Evasion ability is indeed a headache.

Truly a difficult opponent.

It is such a pity that he couldn't be finished off.

To finish him off, two God-tier servants were completely lost.

The cost is just too high!

One must know that this is an S-Grade Calamity Hero.

It is also the highest-quality Contract Material Zhou Chu has encountered so far.

It is just a pity that he couldn't be kept; what a huge loss!

Zhou Chu felt unwilling, but there was truly nothing he could do.

He can only be glad now that he didn't die at Gadi's hands.

Eh?

That's not right.

Since the Calamity Invasion situation has been resolved, why hasn't the notification for clearing the level appeared yet?

Could it be that the energy core of this Secret Realm Tower has truly been damaged?

Or is it that Gadi must be killed for it to happen?

Just as Zhou Chu was deep in thought, a notification suddenly rang out.

【Successfully killed "Void Annihilation Thorn Gadi".】

【Obtained Soul Fragment*1】

【Failed to find corresponding material, collection of material failed.】

……

This……

After hearing this notification, Zhou Chu could not help but be stunned for a moment.

Immediately following, a look of wild joy appeared on his face.

Although Gadi had successfully escaped into the void, he had been struck by a poisoned arrow from a Skeleton Spring Crossbowman.

His Blood Qi was already bottoming out, and he had actually died from the poison while traversing the void.

It was a pity that Gadi's corpse could not be collected by the Life Soul Artifact.

Clang!

Not far away, the black short blade in Gadi's hand fell from mid-air, subsequently emitting a crisp sound.

Did it drop equipment?

Wasn't it said that this Secret Realm Tower doesn't drop equipment?

Zhou Chu's heart was full of doubt, but he still walked over and picked up the short blade.

【Silence Blade · Gadi's Consciousness: At the moment of the Calamity Hero Gadi's passing, he used Void Power to seal his own consciousness within this...】

Oh? It turns out that right before dying, Gadi used Void Power to seal his own consciousness onto the weapon he was using.

Zhou Chu could not help but mutter to himself.

Since he had received the notification that Gadi was killed, yet he did not see the other party's corpse.

It was just that the consciousness had been sealed within this short blade.

Since Gadi's consciousness was inside, that meant he might be resurrected again.

He wondered what the consequences would be if he placed the Silence Blade, which had fused with Gadi's consciousness, into the Hero Tomb.

Thinking of this, Zhou Chu's heart stirred; he probed his consciousness into his Life Soul Artifact and placed the Silence Blade into the Hero Tomb.

Zhou Chu watched the Hero Tomb nervously, his heart filled with a trace of anticipation.

If he could convert Gadi into his own god-level servant, his strength would be greatly enhanced.

However, a moment later, a violent energy fluctuation came from the Hero Tomb.

Immediately following, a roar from Gadi erupted; clearly, Gadi's consciousness was resisting the suppression of the Hero Tomb.

But at this moment, Gadi, who only had a residual consciousness, was simply unable to contend with it.

This violent energy fluctuation only lasted for less than two seconds before it quieted down.

At this moment, a green progress bar appeared above that Hero Tomb, with two lines of small green text below it.

【Currently reshaping...】

【Current progress 1%..., approximately 24 hours required until reshaping is complete.】

Reshaping?

Could it be that the Hero Tomb can reshape a body for Gadi?

If that were really the case, then after 24 hours, would he be able to obtain the Contract Material for this S-Grade Calamity Hero?

Zhou Chu felt a surge of excitement; he stared fixedly at the progress bar on the Hero Tomb, wishing the reshaping could be completed immediately.

If spending Soul Fragments could speed up the progress of reshaping and resurrection, Zhou Chu would absolutely invest them without hesitation.

But this was merely Zhou Chu's wishful thinking.

Zhou Chu could not help but smile bitterly to himself.

Clearly, reshaping a body requires more time than resurrection.

Fortunately, it was only one day; by this time tomorrow, he would be able to see the results after the reshaping.

At level 15, he could obtain the third opportunity for Divine Fusion.

He would just leave it for Gadi.

Zhou Chu had obtained a total of nearly 500,000 Climbing Tower Points; if he used them all to exchange for Experience Stones, it would probably be enough to get him to level 20!
