33: Killing without a knife (Part 2)

Examination Center.

Ning Que jumped up with a start.

His face was ashen.

"Aren't the Magic Dragon's skills all sealed, only meant for intimidation?"

"Orders!"

"Except for Deputy Director Qin and the four people chosen to stay behind, everyone follow me into the Teleportation Array to slay the Magic Dragon."

"Understood!" Everyone sprang into action.

They had built the Magic Dragon's Seal together and checked it three times afterward.

But now...

It had breathed out Dragon Flame the moment it opened its mouth.

Was that just breathing Dragon Flame?

That was spitting in their faces, even pissing and shitting on them!

Regarding this problem, every single person involved would be implicated.

Even if Ning Que and Deputy Director Qin took the fall, they would still be affected.

The disaster was too big; they couldn't handle it!

Everyone rushed to the Teleportation Array, only to find that it was impossible to teleport at all.

A staff member raised a trembling hand: "Report, our group leader has disappeared, and a note was left on the desk."

Ning Que snatched it. On the front, it read: [The world is a prison, all living beings suffer. God loves the world, true spirits return home.]

On the back, it read: [A small return gift, it's not much.]

God Descent Cult!

So it was the God Descent Cult behind this.

Everyone was seething with rage.

Those scumbags dared to reach out to the entrance examination.

How did they dare?

How did they dare?!

Ning Que suppressed his anger: "How long to fix the Teleportation Array?"

"Half an hour."

"If we go over in half an hour, I'm afraid we won't even be able to recover the bodies." Ning Que's head throbbed with anger.

"How about asking the Great Wall Guard Army? They are nearby?" Deputy Director Qin suggested.

"No."

"Leaving aside that they can't leave their posts without orders, even if they did, they'd have to guard against sneak attacks from magical creatures."

"God knows if those bastards from the God Descent Cult have done something at the border."

...The Magic Dragon flew out of the water. In its rage, it directly spat out "Corrosive Dragon Flame."

The black acid sprayed out like it was from a high-pressure water gun.

Tang Wei subconsciously fired a shot.

The golden lightning collided with the black acid, and in less than 0.1 seconds, it was completely corroded away.

Fortunately, Xiang Ying timely cast a "Moonlight Shield" on him.

Before he could feel lucky, the shield was corroded away.

The Corrosive Dragon Flame drenched him directly from his head.

The durability of the Epic-grade armor on his body plummeted.

The skin it touched was directly corroded down to the bone.

Escape!

In less than a second.

He jumped away and didn't forget to throw out a chain to pull Xiang Ying aside.

The Dragon Flame continued to spray backward.

Three long-range classes had just released magic shields when they were corroded away, followed by their bodies.

Tang Meng, who had the "Thunder Dharma King" class, saw the opportunity quickly and cast the "Thunderlight Electric Move" skill on himself, his speed soaring as he narrowly avoided it.

Then came the screams.

Two companions were directly corroded away by the Dragon Flame.

Run, run, run!

Tang Meng had no other thoughts and turned to flee.

The Magic Dragon grinned hideously, its claws clashing. A flash of black light tore Tang Meng, who was fleeing blindly without regard for defense, into two halves.

Sky-Splitting Dragon Claw.

A one-hit kill!

Tang Wei had just caught his breath and continued to flee, dragging Xiang Ying along.

The Magic Dragon was unwilling to let the two go and chased after them directly.

Seeing that they were within skill range.

It directly used the move "True Dragon Roar."

"Roar!"

Amidst the soul-shaking sound, the transparent shields on the two of them shattered.

That was the Moonlight Priest's "Moon Goddess Shield."

It could block one control skill.

Now it was gone.

The two gasped, looking toward where Xu Le and the other were, preparing to shift the trouble onto them.

But where was there anyone left in that spot?

They could only run for their lives frantically.

It began to rain.

No.

It was acid rain.

Densely packed damage numbers floated up, and their health bars plummeted.

In just three seconds.

Xiang Ying's health had dropped by a third.

"Moon Healing."

Clear moonlight fell on the two, and their health bars began to recover.

Although it still wasn't as fast as the rate of decline, they could barely hold on.

Tang Wei took out a Talisman. After inputting mana, a transparent light shield appeared around them, barely resisting the acid rain.

Bang!

A thick dragon tail swept across.

The shield on them shattered, and they were blasted five or six meters away.

"Help! Save me!"

Xiang Ying desperately pressed her examination bracelet, but there was no response for a long time.

After a while, a string of text popped up on the screen.

System failure, please try again later.

She was so angry she almost smashed the bracelet.

Why fail now of all times?

Tang Wei was rummaging through his space ring for anything usable.

After a long time, he finally pulled out a Mass Teleportation Scroll.

He crushed it without hesitation.

A white light enveloped the two.

Roar!

Seeing the two about to escape, the Magic Dragon roared in anger and chased after them swiftly.

It lunged its head forward for a bite.

Although it wasn't a skill.

The hideous dragon head and interlocking dragon teeth looked even more terrifying.

Xiang Ying's mind went blank, and she subconsciously pushed Tang Wei in front of her.

???

Tang Wei was thinking of using a skill the moment the Magic Dragon approached.

His body slipped.

His mind went blank instantly.

The skill he had prepared faltered, a step too late.

In that split second, the Magic Dragon bit down.

Fortunately, his SS-rank instincts were still there. Tang Wei tilted his head, and half his shoulder was bitten off.

A white light flashed.

The two were teleported ten thousand meters away.

On a distant hilltop.

Xu Le and the other saw this scene clearly.

They watched as the Magic Dragon unwillingly lashed out at the ground before returning to the Black Water Pool.

Hearing the commotion.

More teams stopped searching for "hidden" magical creatures and rushed straight to the Black Water Pool.

They all clearly saw the rampaging Magic Dragon.

Especially that breath of Dragon Flame; it could even corrode the stones on the ground, so no one dared to step forward.

More than ten minutes later.

Tang Wei, dragging his mangled right shoulder, led five Tang Family teams and rushed over in a rage, with a pale-faced Xiang Ying following behind.

Xu Le dragged Li Yang and turned to run, only stopping when they were blocked by the Black Water Pool.

Tang Wei felt fear in his heart, but thinking of his empty right shoulder, his anger pushed everything else aside.

Although his right shoulder and arm could be healed, a new limb would never be as good as the original.

Moreover, his Tang Family had suffered such tragic losses, yet the instigator hadn't said a word; even a Buddha would lose his patience!

Most importantly.

Even if the Magic Dragon appeared again, the primary target of its attack couldn't possibly be him.

Charge!

They soon surrounded Xu Le and the other near the Black Water Pool.

"Xu Le, right? I told you that pool was dangerous. What do you have to say now?"

Xu Le communicated with Li Yang in his mind, and both bowed simultaneously: "Third Young Master Tang, you were right. This pool is very dangerous. We were wrong."

!!!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

The flames of fury burned fiercely above Tang Wei's head.

Is this a fucking apology?

Oh, the previous agreement was that the losing side would bow and apologize.

But goddammit.

Three outstanding youths of the Tang Family were dead, and he himself was missing a hand and half a shoulder.

Could a mere apology settle this?

Was this an apology?

This was an insult!

Tang Wei's eyes were blood-red, filled with killing intent: "I'll kill you!"

Xu Le looked bewildered on the outside, but sneered in his heart: I wanted to give you a chance, but you guys are useless!

Mental Shock!
