Free Web NovelChapter 704: Chapter 60: The Confused Saintess
Su Changxing realized he couldn’t let this monster kill the Saintess.
At least not now.
The Saintess’s ability greatly restricted this monster. If she died, the monster might be able to slaughter at will.
Before the monster arrived, Su Changxing rushed towards the Saintess, his body transforming into countless white feathers, appearing beside the Saintess and grabbing her.
The monster was already at his back, opening its mouth 270 degrees, trying to bite him.
At this moment, he finally understood why those people didn’t resist when the monster bit their heads off.
It turned out that between the monster’s mouth and the person it was biting, a small triangular domain was formed.
This domain was similar to a restriction domain, capable of limiting movement for a short time.
To Su Changxing, it was a domain, but to this demon, it was probably just an innate ability, an instinct.
Qu Ping’s eyes widened, not knowing why Su Changxing suddenly rushed up, and with such speed, reaching the Saintess before the monster did.
"This guy doesn’t even care about his life for a woman. It’s over, it’s over!"
Seeing this scene, he thought Su Changxing was surely doomed. Even the Buddha Son couldn’t stop this monster; how could Su Changxing save someone from its mouth?
At this moment, Su Changxing’s face was calm. This move wasn’t a reckless venture but a calculated one. All the monster’s actions were within his expectations.
A small bronze bell appeared in his left hand.
With the pleasant sound of the bell, the monster’s mouth passed through Su Changxing’s body, biting into the air.
Su Changxing returned to his original position, taking the Saintess with him.
The Saintess struggled in his arms, crying, "It hurts, it hurts, I can’t take it."
Qu Ping exclaimed, "Why did you bring her here? That monster’s target is her. By bringing her over, aren’t we also doomed?"
Su Changxing glanced at him and calmly said, "The Saintess cannot die, otherwise, none of us can deal with that monster."
Then, he took a bottle of Blood of Madness from the Pocket Galaxy and directly stuffed it into the Saintess’s mouth, pouring it down.
Crystal clear liquid slid down from the corner of the Saintess’s mouth.
He didn’t know if it would work, but it was worth a try.
But it seemed it should work. The Blood of Madness had the effect of restoring Spiritual Power and could stimulate the Spirit to a certain extent.
It’s just unknown whether the Saintess’s Spirit could withstand the Blood of Madness.
After the monster bit into the air, it turned to look at Su Changxing, squinting its eyes, seemingly a bit annoyed from being toyed with.
As it was about to pursue again, Carl suddenly appeared next to it and struck it with a sword, sending it flying to the other side of the camp.
Being directly hit by the Great Sword, patches of frost appeared on the monster’s body, making its movements a bit stiffer.
But it wasn’t over yet.
The Buddha Son also rushed over from the back, the gigantic Ancient Buddha behind him clawing at the monster, drowning it in endless Buddha light.
But unexpectedly.
The monster opened its mouth 270 degrees, biting at the Ancient Buddha’s arm. The arm grew smaller and smaller as it approached the monster, finally being bitten off.
With a sound like shattering glass, the enormous arm of the Ancient Buddha was broken off and swallowed whole by the monster.
The Buddha Son saw this and remained unmoved, shouting, "Purify!"
A golden Buddha Seal appeared on the monster’s forehead, with clear Buddha light pouring out of its body.
The monster seemed to be frozen in place, not moving at all, seemingly subdued by the Buddha Son. But before the people in the camp could rejoice, they saw blood spilling from the Buddha Son’s features, his body rapidly withering.
At the same time.
Su Changxing tossed the slightly calmer Saintess to the ground, raised a Sniper Rifle, aimed at the monster’s head, and pulled the trigger.
With a roar and the ejection of a shell, the monster’s head was pierced by his bullet, leaving a moderate-sized bloody hole.
But the Buddha light on the monster also vanished at the same time. The Buddha Son spat out blood, the golden light on his body dimming considerably.
He had reached his limit.
Yet he hadn’t retreated at all; the Ancient Buddha at his back reformed, changing from an open palm to a fist, striking at the monster.
The monster opened its mouth 270 degrees again, biting off the other arm of the Ancient Buddha, swallowing it into its belly.
Seeing such a terrifying scene, the Buddha Son’s expression changed once more, considering retreat. The monster was simply too powerful, and even with all his strength, he wasn’t a match.
But the problem was, even if he escaped now, he would still have to face these monsters later, and then his chances would be even slimmer.
So he couldn’t flee.
"Hold it off, I need to recover," shouted the Buddha Son as he retreated.
Su Changxing observed the scene but didn’t make a move. Instead, he turned back to check on the Saintess’s status, "Are you feeling better? We need your help now."
The Saintess lay on the ground, staring blankly at Su Changxing, a bit confused, "What? What help?"
Her consciousness seemed still unclear, either forgetting what had just happened or otherwise.
Su Changxing squatted down, near her face, staring into her alluring eyes, with a flash of dark light in his pupils, "We need you to use your ability to restrain that monster."
He activated the ability of Butcher’s Eye, using his vast Spiritual Power to help organize her muddled mind.
Secretly, he also had another goal: to steal part of the Saintess’s memory, knowledge about the Doomsday Cult, and the Players.
In an instant, the Saintess’s gaze regained clarity entirely.
"So painful~"
She whimpered, her cheeks flushed, staring calmly at Su Changxing.
Su Changxing slapped her across the face, making a crisp sound, pointing at the monster, "Don’t daze out! They can’t hold on much longer, they need you."
"?"
The Saintess blinked, dazed, Am I just slapped?
Her consciousness was still somewhat hazy.
"You..." The Saintess was about to say something, but Su Changxing pulled her up from the ground.
At this moment.
She finally noticed that many in the camp were already dead, the Buddha Son and Carl were battling the demon, yet they were at a disadvantage. The Buddha Son, in particular, had several blood holes pierced through him.
The Saintess took a deep breath, touched her flushed cheek, and once again controlled a large amount of blood-red vines towards the demon.
These blood-red vines indeed posed a significant problem for the monster. Although it had its ways of breaking free, it was clear that it came at a cost that couldn’t be sustained indefinitely.
With the Saintess joining again, the pressure on the Buddha Son and the others lessened significantly, and they looked towards Su Changxing with praise.
No matter what he had done before, what he did just now saved what was almost a lost situation.
An Extraordinary of Tier Seven able to do this was certainly worth more than expected.
However, after this revival, the Doomsday Sect Saintess’s mental state was distinctly different, calmer and more composed, with an apparent increase in strength even.
Su Changxing, of course, knew why. The spirit of the Doomsday Sect Saintess was on the verge of collapse, perhaps due to her position or other reasons.
In this state, an Extraordinary can easily lose control.
This was likely the reason why the Doomsday Sect Saintess participated in the Slaughter Game. She could no longer advance in the normal way and had to come here.
Players who come to the Slaughter Game all have some issues, except for someone like Gurulu, who simply came to fight.
The Doomsday Sect Saintess, bitten by the demon, lost an arm, which pushed her to the breaking point, nearly losing control and transforming.
However, the Blood of Madness combined with Su Changxing’s Butcher’s Eye seemed to be the right cure, miraculously improving the Doomsday Sect Saintess’s mental issues.
