Chapter 607: Chapter 285 Giant City Trembles
This sudden turn of events filled the Ark Chosen Ones with fear.
In front of them, two Sixth-Sense Spiritual Ability Users met their fate in an instant—one dead, one wounded.
Who wouldn’t be terrified?
These were Sixth-Sense Spiritual Ability Users!
In the forces of Giant City, they would be at the level of Captain.
Within the Forbidden Zone, they were akin to City Lords, holding vast resources.
In the wilderness, a Sixth-Sense Spiritual Ability User could even dominate a territory on their own and become a local tyrant.
Yet these two eminent Sixth-Senses were gone just like that, without even putting up a fight.
This made many of the low awakening electors feel bewildered.
Even the powerful figures from the Second and Third Ring were immensely shocked.
It was the first time they had witnessed such a scene at the Ark gathering. Just a moment ago, they were still conversing with “Ming Xing,” and the next thing they knew, he exploded into a mist of blood.
“Captain! What happened? Has the Ark been attacked?” demanded the Human Overlord from the Third Ring.
“It is unrelated to the Ark. It was their physical bodies in the Physical World that were suddenly attacked,” the Captain replied with a hint of coldness in his voice.
“Ming Xing had just released his ability, not to attack anyone here but to defend or repel a perceived threat. Still, he couldn’t escape this calamity. His body was shattered, his soul well burst, and he died instantly. Phantom, however, is still alive…”
Many electors went pale. Entering the Ark was indeed their most dangerous moment.
Their Spiritual Ability Projection would be brought into the Ark, but their physical bodies would be in a sleep-like state, utterly defenseless.
That’s why Ark Chosen Ones often entered the Ark from a safe location.
Only Chu He was an exception for not needing such precautions.
Without any hesitation, “Wolf Map” from the Fourth Ring instantly transformed into a beam of light and left the Ark.
Being an elector active in Border City 2, he must have had some connections with Qin Zhi and Liu Sheng and was likely one of the instigators behind Ember Church’s plot. Now, seeing the trouble the two were in, he dared not stay longer in the Ark and quickly returned to the Physical World.
Li Yelai sneered inwardly upon seeing this.
“Are you panicked? Indeed, you’re the only one left, beast!”
There were five conspirators behind the Fantasy Band incident,
Golden Armor was long dead, Black Umbrella had been executed by Li Yelai, and now Ming Xing Qin Zhi was dead, with Phantom critically injured and on the verge of death.
Only Wolf Map was left… Hahaha. He won’t escape!
It seemed other Ark Chosen Ones had realized this too.
“Oh, retribution has arrived,” chuckled an elector. “Back then, to test the Old Mad King, they used the Song of Extinction in Border City 3, killing tens of thousands of citizens and dealing a severe blow to the officials of the Giant City, with many Processors dying. Now… retribution has arrived!”
“He brought it on himself; he deserves no pity! Wolf Map, unless something unexpected happens, you’re next!”
“Hahahaha…”
It was uncertain whether Wolf Map heard the electors’ mockery.
With Wolf Map’s departure, several Ark Chosen Ones hurriedly left the Ark. They were frightened and needed to quickly check their own defensive measures.
Ming Xing and Liu Sheng were seasoned members and should have set up strong defensive forces around them. Yet, they were still assassinated, which left many Ark electors frightened.
Thus, Li Yelai also took the opportunity to leave the Ark.
Before leaving, he glanced at Jing Lin who nodded slightly, indicating that he would take the information with him.
…
The next second, a white light flared up, turning into a beam of light and vanished within the Ark Hall.
Back in the Physical World, Li Yelai opened his eyes and saw the Little Mad King standing at the window.
“Welcome back, my teammate,” the Little Mad King turned to look at Li Yelai.
“That Ranger made a move after all,” Li Yelai got up, changed out of his suit, and quickly said, “Qin Zhi is confirmed dead, and Liu Sheng seems to be still alive.”
“Hmm. I know,” the Little Mad King drew the curtains open, pointing towards the distance.
Li Yelai changed into tactical gear, walked to the window, and witnessed a shocking scene.
The picturesque forest had been violently scarred. Even from a great distance, Li Yelai could see a thousand-meter-long deep gash tearing through the forest and straight through a villa in its path.
That villa was the residence arranged by the Church for people like Qin Zhi, located on another hillside. Li Yelai could barely see that villa from the window, but now, he could see a deep gash with blue flames spreading within it, slowly extinguishing.
“What level is that Ranger?” Li Yelai exclaimed, overwhelmed by the might of that single arrow, comparable to his own Annihilation Thunder.
“Judging from that fleeting Spiritual Energy Fluctuation, he should be a Fifth Sense. But there’s something about that arrow… I felt a powerful force from the Void Realm enhancing it. It might be a weapon blessed by a divine being, just like your Blood God Seven-layered Shield and Black Gold Dragon Pattern Halberd,” replied the Little Mad King.
Li Yelai’s shield and halberd, both blessed by the Blood God, possessed notable defensive and offensive enhancements.
These god-gifted items alone earned him the respect of the Church.
And this Wilderness Ranger, capable of releasing such a terrifying arrow from beyond line of sight, was because that arrow was also a god-gifted item, blessed by a divine being…
It seemed, like Chu He, this Wilderness Ranger was also a follower of the Chaos Fifth God!
