Chapter 401: Heartache

Full-Time Hunter Chronicles, Volume 1, Chapter 405: Heartache. Humming wengwengweng~~~~~

Everyone felt as if their eardrums were about to shatter; their minds lost the ability to think, leaving only the buzzing sound of "wengwengweng."

After about half a minute, everyone gradually regained the ability to think, and the roaring in their ears began to slowly subside.

Rumbling~~~~~

However, just as the roaring in everyone's ears had begun to fade, a violent rumbling sound arrived, making some feel as if the buzzing they had just recovered from was intensifying again, before fading once more as their ears recovered.

After this repeated a few times, everyone present began to gradually adapt, and the buzzing roar in their ears ceased.

However, while the people present had adapted to the roar, it did not mean the attack had stopped; instead, the attack continued to strike the mastermind behind the scenes, growing ever more intense.

As the energy beam continuously struck the mastermind, the power of the beam did not weaken with the passage of time; rather, it kept condensing upon the mastermind.

As this energy condensed on the mastermind, beams of light began to appear, intersecting to form small magic arrays, which finally converged into three massive magic arrays.

After these three massive magic arrays formed, their colors began to change, turning into purple, red, and cyan respectively.

And after these three magic arrays changed color, violent magical fluctuations began to emerge within them, finally transforming into magical fluctuations of the lightning, fire, and wind elements.

Rumbling~~~~~ Zzzzzz~~~~~~~ Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~~~

After the magical fluctuations within the three magic arrays reached their limit, violent lightning, scorching fireballs, and sharp wind blades erupted madly from the three arrays, striking down at the mastermind in the center.

Awooooo~~~~~~~~

A scream containing endless pain erupted, drowning out even the rumbling of the lightning, reaching everyone's ears.

But soon, this sound was covered by an even louder rumble, because with the continuous supply of energy from the energy beam, the energy of the three magic arrays became stronger and stronger, and the lightning, flames, and wind blades falling from them became increasingly powerful.

Boom~~~~~

At a certain moment, a sound distinct from the lightning strikes emerged; the wind blades shot from the cyan magic array actually began to be interspersed with black sword qi, which then struck the snake body of the mastermind.

This black sword qi carried a power similar to the Ultimate Yin force on Zhuge Tianxin's Ultimate Yin Blade. Upon striking the mastermind's snake body, it directly broke through the mastermind's defenses and slashed into the mastermind's flesh.

Swish swish swish~~~~

With the first strand of sword qi, there would be a second, and even a third~~~

With the energy beam providing a continuous source of power, sword qi began to be continuously interspersed within the wind blades falling from the wind-element magic array, and the quantity grew larger and larger.

Boom boom boom~~~~~~~

Continuous striking sounds rang out as the sword qi falling from the wind-element magic array struck the mastermind repeatedly. Almost every strand of sword qi was able to break through the mastermind's defenses and cut into its flesh.

As this sword qi struck the mastermind continuously, the wounds on the mastermind's body multiplied. In just over ten breaths, the mastermind had become a bloody mess, with no part of its body left intact, while the lightning and fire magic directly scorched or burned these severed flesh wounds to a charred black.

"Damn it, open for me." The continuous bombardment of magic and sword qi made the mastermind's body, already on the verge of collapse, even more tattered, and it could collapse completely at any moment. Thus, the mastermind resolutely made a decision it was unwilling to make—to detonate those black energy orbs.

Swish swish swish swish~~~~

Four black energy orbs shot out; three flew toward the three magic arrays, and the remaining one flew directly toward the incoming energy beam.

"Explode."

Rumbling~~~

Following the mastermind's shout, the four black energy orbs exploded simultaneously. Violent energy surged out madly, and the endless, wild power transformed into countless small black snakes that struck the three magic arrays and the energy beam.

Rumbling~~~~~~

Continuous explosion sounds rang out again as those small black snakes struck the three magic arrays and the energy beam, then exploded repeatedly.

Crack~~ crack crack~~~ crack crack crack~~~ crack crack~~~

As those small black snakes struck continuously, the three magic arrays were the first to be unable to withstand it, and cracks began to appear, constantly increasing and widening.

Bang~~~~~~

Finally, the three magic arrays could no longer withstand it and shattered directly, and the lightning, flames, wind blades, and sword qi that had been shooting out all vanished the moment the magic arrays shattered.

"Gather for me." The moment the three magic arrays shattered, the mastermind shouted immediately.

Hiss hiss hiss~~~~~

As the mastermind's voice fell, the small black snakes that had erupted from the three black energy orbs that had shattered the magic arrays immediately began to change direction, heading toward the small black snakes that had erupted from the black energy orb that had struck the energy beam, then merged together to form a black snake half a meter thick.

"Open for me." The mastermind shouted again.

After the mastermind shouted, the condensed black snake crashed into the incoming energy beam without hesitation.

Rumbling~~~~~~

Everyone present felt a sharp pain in their ears, followed by an itching sensation, and two streams of fresh blood slowly flowed from their left and right ears. Everyone's ears could no longer withstand it and bled directly.

And that energy beam, which Zhuge Tianxin and the others had spent a great deal of time preparing, slowly dissipated amidst the roaring sound that had caused their ears to bleed.

At the same time, Xia Lina, Nangong Miss Mengli, Zhuge Xun, and others who had emitted the energy beam were also affected, directly vomiting blood from the shock, and then were sent flying backward separately.

"All of you, go to hell." The energy beam dissipated, and the mastermind escaped from it. Without any hesitation, the mastermind directly threw the very last black energy orb, shooting it toward Xia Lina, Nangong Miss Mengli, and the others.

"No~~~~." Because of the protection of the scale armor, Zhuge Tianxin had not been injured in the previous series of bombardments. After the mastermind blasted the energy beam away, the scale armor finally could not withstand the impact and was directly shattered into fragments.

This allowed Zhuge Tianxin to see the scene of the mastermind shooting the last black energy orb toward Nangong Miss Mengli and the others.

Rumbling~~~~~

The black energy orb shattered directly, erupting with endless destructive energy, instantly swallowing Nangong Miss Mengli and the others.

Boom~~~~

Seeing this scene, Zhuge Tianxin only felt his heart twitch violently, the expression in his eyes began to scatter, and his black-and-white eyes turned pure black in an instant. ===== CHAPTER 402 =====
