Chapter 295: Paying the Price in Blood

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Looking at Yang Ling’s sinister expression, the gold cloaked warrior Casia was on high alert, not daring to be careless.

Compared to a Spellcaster, a warrior had a natural advantage when it came to close combat. He was confident that he would be able to end the battle quickly if the person before him was an ordinary Spellcaster or Summoner. However, the other party was Yang Ling, with abilities deep beyond comprehension. He was not confident at all.

In the underground city, the allied forces of the various factions was not able to do much against the Corpse Wizard King Rodriguez that had just charged out of the seal even after battling it for a long period of time; However, Yang Ling alone was enough to severely injure the Corpse Wizard King, leaving it no choice but to escape from the underground city.

Even the Domain Expert White-robed Cardinal Bishop was no match for the Corpse Wizard King. It was imaginable just how terrifying Yang Ling’s abilities were!

Till now, he had no idea how Yang Ling had killed the Red-robed Cardinal Samuel, all he saw was a flash of red light. He did not know what magical spell that was, or if it’s some terrifying Magical Beast! Unless he was left with no choice, he was unwilling to have the powerful Yang Ling as his enemy!

However, the abilities of the Corpse Wizard King were gradually recovering, its powers getting stronger and stronger. He had to rely on the influential Church if he wanted to kill the Corpse Wizard King and successfully complete his mission. No matter what, he did not wish for Yang Ling to dismantle the alliance between the major factions before the Corpse Wizard King was killed.

“Those who blocks me, die!”

After recovering from his surprise, seeing the gold cloaked warrior Casia suddenly charge out to block him, Yang Ling’s expression became even colder, summoning his entire Magical Beast army at once. The Level Surpassing Magical Beast Dark Dragon King glared at Casia while the rest of the Magical Beast worked together to attack the army of the Church not far away.

As a sage level fighter, Casia’s abilities were undoubtedly strong, and the Bellimore family backing him had even more alarming abilities. Yang Ling did not wish to engage in conflict with him unless he absolutely had to. However, he had to retaliate against the Church. There was no room for compromise.

This time, if he, the leader, did not react to the great loss in Black Water City; Then the Church would become even more insolent in the future. They only destroyed a sector of the city this time around. Next time, they might directly massacre the entire city!

Over the millennia, the Church had done their fair share of massacring cities. Yang Ling could disregard their actions if this was done somewhere else; But he had to make them pay the price of acting this insolently in his territory with their blood, no matter how influential the Church was!

Perhaps they had sensed Yang Ling’s blazing fury, or perhaps they had caught the scent of the thick metallic stench of blood in the air, the Magical Beasts bared their fangs and roared loudly, then launched a fierce attack on the army of the Church.

The first Magical Beasts to take action were not the ferocious Dark Dragons, the violent Chimeras or the slow Evil Eyes, but the Thousand-faced Mink standing on Yang Ling’s shoulder. Through its Group Mirror Magic, the little creature transformed into a large number of Dark Dragons, Chimeras and Twin-legged Flying Dragons, instructing them to surround and massacre the army of the Church.

Faced with a large number of bloodthirsty high-level Magical Beasts like the Dark Dragon and Chimera, faced with the hordes of Horned Bee Beasts and Self-destructing Bats, faced with the blankets of spiders digging into the ground, the army of the Church raised a magical barrier fearfully in defense. After the death of the Red-robed Cardinal Samuel, the army of the Church was without a leader. They made an incredibly foolish decision in their fluster!

If they had decisively retreated after Yang Ling summoned his Magical Beast army, at least a portion of them could have escaped despite the heavy casualties. However, raising the magical barrier in an attempt to defend against the fierce attacks of the Magical Beast army was akin to suicide!

The Church’s holy magical barrier was strong, but that was only true if the opponent was an average person; Under the fierce attacks of the Magical Beast army, the barrier creaked several times before scattering into the wind.

Without the protection of the magical barrier, in front of the ferocious, bloodthirsty Magical Beast army, the Church’s knights and Spellcasters who were huddled together might as well be naked, helpless and fearful like a lass in front of a group of lechers. In just a short instant, over a hundred knights and a dozen Spellcasters fell in battle.

“Kill, kill, kill!”

“Kill them, kill them all!”

The army of Church cried pathetically, unable to hide as they were surrounded by the Magical Beast army, while the citizens of Black Water City watching the scene were maniacally calling for their deaths. They shot out the arrows in their hands in fury, some throwing the rocks they picked up…

After having escaped death, the people were furious, wanting desperately to swarm forward and bite the detestable knights and Spellcasters of the Church to death! Their hearts were broken, thinking about their kin who have been burnt alive and remembering the pathetic cries they let out before they died.

“That’s enough, Your Lordship, make the Magical Beasts stop, don’t force my hand!”

Even though his scalp was crawling under the gaze of the Level Surpassing Magical Beast Dark Dragon King, the gold cloaked warrior had no choice but to step forward in order to successfully complete his mission, infusing his Battle Energy onto his sword. In that instant, the Galaxy Sword in his hand glowed red, releasing a crisp, buzzing sound.

“Hmph, Sir Casia, I am not the one forcing you, you are the one forcing me!” Looking at Casia ready to attack, Yang Ling let out a cold grunt before saying calmly, “You are powerful, but I can tell you directly that you are no match for me!”

The gold cloaked warrior Casia was powerful indeed. Even the Corpse Wizard King did not dare take either his Fatal Blow or Blade Storm head on. However, the Level Surpassing Magical Beast Dark Dragon King was not to be underestimated. Even though it had not fully recovered from its injuries, it was more than enough to deal with Casia.

The powerful Dark Dragon King, the indefensible Horned Soul Snake, Yang Ling was confident that he could inflict severe injuries, or even kill him, within a short amount of time if Casia forcefully attacked him. Of course, Yang Ling was unwilling to attack him unless he absolutely had to.

Killing Casia was not difficult, but forging a deep animosity with the Bellimore family for no reason would invite several unwanted troubles. Making enemies wherever he went in this foreign world was definitely a foolish course of action!

Not my match?

Casia felt a wave of bitterness in his heart as he looked at Yang Ling’s ice-cold expression. Even if he did not take into account the massive army of Magical Beasts in front of him, Yang Ling alone might have already reached the level of Domain Expert. He was definitely not a match for Yang Ling.

However, if he allowed Yang Ling to kill the Church’s knights and Spellcasters before him, the Church would definitely engage in an intense conflict with the Magical Beast Territory. Without a doubt, that would definitely cause fatal obstructions to the plan of killing the Corpse Wizard King together.

Without the help of the Church’s elites, they would definitely have no chance of killing the Corpse Wizard King if they only relied on the experts from his faction and the Dark Association, much less snatch over the Divine Weapons and successfully completing the mission.

“Yang Ling, let them surrender for the time being and lock the rest of the people in jail!” Just as the gold cloaked warrior Casia was being put in a spot, Elder Klive walked over as he spoke.

Even though the Dark Association had a deep hatred for the Church, they had a common interest in killing the Corpse Wizard King and snatching the Divine Weapons. If this was an ordinary day, Elder Klive would have been very happy to see the Church suffer heavy casualties. However, in order to form an alliance and kill the Corpse Wizard King, he had no choice but to advise Yang Ling to take one step back.

Lock them up?

Yang Ling was silent as he watched Elder Klive walk quickly toward him. Even though he was cautious of the mysterious and powerful Bellimore family, he would not have hesitated to order the Dark Dragon King and the Horned Soul Snake to attack if Casia took action. However, this was not the case for Elder Klive.

The powerful Dark Association was backing Elder Klive, and more importantly, to some extent, they were already partners engaging in close collaboration. He naturally had to consider the other party’s opinion. Furthermore, without the help and efforts of Elder Klive, there would have been even more casualties in Black Water City. He had to seriously consider Elder Klive’s words.

“Yang Ling, what we wish is for the attention of the Church to not be distracted so we can work together and deal with the Corpse Wizard King. Lock these surrendering warriors and Spellcasters of the Church up first. You can do whatever you want with them after this matter is resolved!” Looking at Yang Ling’s sinister expression, Elder Klive naturally understood what Yang Ling was feeling. He paused, then continued, “Treat this as a favor you’re doing for us, you can tell us if you face any difficulties in the future. I believe that Sir Casia would not reject you!”

“Your Lordship, as long as you order the Magical Beasts to stop, you can voice out any difficulties you have in the future. I’ll help you as long as it’s within my abilities!” Seeing how hesitant Yang Ling was, Casia knew what he should say without needing Elder Klive to remind him.

“Hmph, these lads from the Church must thank their lucky stars for encountering the elder and Sir Casia!” After deliberating for a moment, Yang Ling quickly came to a decision and ordered the Magical Beast army to spare the knights and Spellcasters kneeling on the floor asking for mercy. Of course, he did not spare those who were stubborn and asking for death.

Death was not scary, what was scary was becoming a zombie-like lunatic or an idiot!

Yang Ling let out a cold smile as he looked at the surrendering knights and Spellcasters of the Church who had thought that they had averted a crisis. It was rumored that the souls of the knights and Spellcasters from the Church were much more powerful than an average person’s because of their faith. Coincidentally, Yang Ling had reached a bottleneck with his mental energy and found it difficult to progress. After locking them up as captives, he did not mind cultivating the high-level Soul Tampering Technique to consume their soul energy.

This way, he would be able to respect the wishes of the gold cloaked warrior Casia and Elder Klive and make them owe him a favour; He would also be able to take the opportunity to cultivate the high-level Soul Tampering Technique and increase his mental energy at a rapid rate through consuming the soul of his captives. It was two birds with one stone!

After ordering the Fox Elder and his group to tie up the captives and toss them into jail, Yang Ling was filled with anticipation. He wanted to see how different the souls of these knights and Spellcasters from the Church are compared to an average person’s!
