Chapter 33: EXP Babies, Clean Sweep!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Boom!
A loud bang sounded!
An intense explosion erupted in front of Luo Xingyao, but it did not affect her the slightest bit!
Luo Xingyao’s gaze was fixed, and her line of sight tightly converged on the figure in front of her.
It was a man dressed in a moon-white soul robe with a scarlet-red longsword in hand. His body was strong and tall, while his aura was transcendent and refined.
Between his gestures, the dark magic—which was powerful enough to destroy a building—was completely extinguished. Not even a speck of dust had tainted his robes.
“Lord…” Luo Xingyao’s lips moved lightly, and her tone was a surprised one. She did not expect that Link would appear before her and ward off that crushing blow at such a critical juncture.
“Xingyao, are you okay!?” questioned Link while standing in front. Although Link knew that Luo Xingyao was a top expert ranking among the Top 100 Human Alliance League’s top ten in the previous life, that was a thing of the future after all.
Since Link was reborn in this world, he had already brought some changes to the originally determined events.
The people who originally should’ve died also survived because of Link’s appearance. Those who had originally lived could possibly die!
Regarding this point, nobody could be sure!
However, Luo Xingyao’s talent was indisputable. As long as she survived, she would certainly grow and become a top expert that played an outstanding role in her own way! This was also the reason why Link acted to save her!
After all, Luo Xingyao had already submitted herself to his command. When she matured in the future, she would also become an important member under his charge!
“I’m fine!” Luo Xingyao also returned to her senses and shook her head, but ripples had vaguely emerged in her pair of bright eyes.
Chi!
A streak of Holy Light glimmered!
Yang Xuerou had rushed over and used her Restoration Skill; it instantly fell on Luo Xingyao and Luo Xinghe—who was by the side and severely injured.
Soon, the duo’s injuries were healed.
Luo Xinghe also got up from the ground with a grin. “Thank you, Lord, for coming to our rescue!” Luo Xinghe was a little grateful. If it weren’t for Link’s appearance, they probably would have died here.
“Pretty good job!” Link nodded lightly, then directed his gaze to the front, a hint of excitement surfacing in his eyes.
To others, this was a large Undead army. They would flee for their lives at the first moment; just news of such an army was terrifying enough to them!
However, the Undead creatures were just a bunch of EXP babies to Link—artifacts to gain points!
With regards to such Undead Tides, Link welcomed all of them. He would take as many as there were!
“Die!” Towards Link’s appearance, those two Dark Magi became angry. The black mist around them flowed ceaselessly as their magic surged. They were even more bent on overturning light and sinking the universe into darkness!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Dark Arcane Energy Cannon bombs burst out from these two Dark Magi’s bodies, and like falling meteors, they sparkled in the starry sky and sunk into the ground!
The might of every Arcane Energy Cannon bomb was extremely frightening. They were probably capable of destroying an entire building once they landed!
At this time, Link’s countenance remained unchanged. He attacked instead of retreating, taking the initiative to charge towards the Dark Magi!
“Courting death!” A Dark Magus grinned hideously. To it, the fact that Link actually dared to receive its magic was virtually extreme arrogance!
A mere Stage One human, meeting force with force with a Stage Three Dark Magus… Isn’t that having a death wish?
But soon after, the scene that took place before its eyes had the Dark Magus rooted to the ground!
As Link went forward, those Arcane Energy Cannon bombs bombarded him directly as if they had locked onto him. However, Link’s figure had vanished before they had struck him.
[Meteor]!
One of [Shoe of the Moon Chaser]’s active skills allowed Link to teleport anywhere within a 20-meter radius!
This distance happened to close the gap between Link and the Dark Magi!
Chi!
Link swung his sword, and [Red Sky] cut through the empty air while shooting out a streak of scarlet sword energy, which directly penetrated a Dark Magus’s body. This annihilated the dark magic and made the black mist scatter!
[Ding! You successfully killed a Dark Magus. Gained 5,000 EXP!]
[Ding! Detected that you have killed a unit that is of a higher level than you are! Awarded +300% additional EXP!]
With his previous experience, Link dealt with Undead creatures like Dark Magi with ease. He readily killed this Dark Magus. However, Link was a little surprised. Previously, killing a Dark Magus had allowed him to advance directly from Stage One, Level 5 to Stage One, Level 10.
But presently, killing another Dark Magus did not allow him to break through the threshold to Stage Two!
By the looks of this, while a taboo profession is powerful, wanting to level up is way more difficult, especially when trying to make a breakthrough from Stage One to Stage Two! It isn’t as easy as advancing by one level. The amount of EXP I require is extremely frightening! However, no rush. There are still many EXP babies around!
Link wore an indifferent look on his face. His gaze turned and landed on the other Dark Magus.
For a time, the Dark Magus—which was born with intellect—actually felt fear after seeing how easily its companion was killed by Link!
This was its first time feeling fear towards a human!
However, it had to be scared. After all, its companion was dead. If it didn’t start moving, wouldn’t that just be awaiting its doom! For this reason, the remaining Dark Magus moved. It growled while controlling the Undead creatures around to surround Link, so as to stand in his way!
While that happened, the Dark Magus turned and fled at top speed. It escaped towards the hospital’s depths.
“…”
“No way! A Stage Three Dark Magus actually fled without fighting! Lord is too impressive; he scared this Dark Magus out of its wits!” Luo Xinghe had a dazed gaze. It was his first time seeing an Undead creature clinging onto life and fearing death, feeling so afraid that it escaped!
This literally renewed his world view!
Although Luo Xingyao did not say anything, her eyes were filled with faith as if anything that this man before her did was normal!
“Trying to leave?” Link’s brow arched as he sneered coldly. A [Red Sky God Flame] was swung out, and flames dashed to the sky, scorching heaven and earth!
Wherever the [Red Sky God Flame] passed, those Stage Two Undead creatures completely perished. Not even shrieks could be heard as they were turned into ashes!
[Ding! Successfully killed Stage Two Undead Knight +1. Gained EXP +100]
[Ding! As you have crossed levels to kill an enemy, awarded an additional 100% EXP!]
[Ding! Successfully killed Stage Two Undead Archer +1, EXP +100!]
[Ding! As you have crossed levels to kill an enemy, awarded an additional 100% EXP!]
…
The Undead Tide—which numbered in the tens of thousands—could not resist Link in the slightest. They were wholly turned into massive amounts of EXP, becoming Link’s stepping stones to leveling up.
Link leaped out and continuously rushed towards the last Dark Magus, determined to make it his EXP baby that would help him advance to Stage Two!
