nWilliam was very unhappy that Vincent and Angelina were so close.
n
n
nHe could not tolerate Angelina being so close to Vincent.
n
n
n
n
nAngelina was his fiancée!
n
n
nAlthough Angelina did not want to admit it, she had no choice.
n
n
nIt was clear to William that he was no match for Vincent. Otherwise, why would he let him live on for so long?
n
n
nWhile Vincent was killing the monsters, he had also been controlling the monsters.
n
n
n
n
nThere were more than ten monsters, and half of them were high-level monsters.
n
n
nFrom the previous simulation battle situation, Vincent would definitely die.
n
n
nChris would not be able to find anything even if she wanted to investigate how Vincent died.
n
n
nThis was especially since Vincent had left the safe zone that Chris had set.
n
n
n
n
nThis gave him greater mobility.
n
n
nHis underling had never killed anyone before. He was still rather resistant towards the idea of killing.
n
n
nHowever, William was the Prince of the Falcon Kingdom. He did not dare to disobey him, especially since he did not have a good family to support him.
n
n
nJust as Vincent was about to reach the underling’s superpower range, the ground began to shake.
n
n
nHowever, neither William nor the underling cared.
n
n
nVincent who was running suddenly stopped. He was unable to move at all.
n
n
n
n
n“What’s going on?”
n
n
nVincent was shocked.
n
n
n“Why can’t I move?”
n
n
nVincent felt the tremors under his feet getting closer and closer. He was very anxious.
n
n
n“Hahaha! Vincent, you’re going to die!”
n
n
nWilliam walked away. His face was ferocious.
n
n
nHowever, at that moment, his underling that was standing behind him started to tremble. His facial expression changed.
n
n
n“Will! William! The! Prince! You! You…”
n
n
n
n
nThe underling saw the Monster Horde, and his face turned pale.
n
n
nHe reached out his trembling hand to pull William.
n
n
nHowever, William only had his eyes set on Vincent. He did not care at all.
n
n
n“Vincent, don’t blame me. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for getting too close to Angelina.”
n
n
nWilliam did not waste any more of his breath and waved.
n
n
n“Babies, it’s time to eat!”
n
n
nHowever, his monsters did not move at all.
n
n
nThis made him stunned.
n
n
nThe Monster Horde was less than a thousand meters away from them.
n
n
nWilliam turned his head and saw his monsters lying on the ground. They were all struggling.
n
n
n“What’s going on?”
n
n
nWilliam thought that the monsters were going to break free from his control. He activated his superpower in a hurry.
n
n
nHowever, the monsters did not move at all.
n
n
n
n
n“Prince William! Monster Horde!” the underling roared.
n
n
nBefore he could finish his words, he turned around and ran.
n
n
nOnce he ran, the superpower that was directed at Vincent was naturally removed.
n
n
nWhen William heard his underling, he raised his head and looked. Good heavens, there were monsters all over the mountains and plains.
n
n
nHe was so scared that he turned around and was about to run but Vincent grabbed him by the collar.
n
n
n“Prince William, a murderer always gets killed in the end. You brought this upon yourself.”
n
n
nVincent then threw him in the direction of the monsters.
n
n
n“Ah! Vincent! You can’t…”
n
n
nBefore William could even finish his words, he was bitten to death by a Red Lion.
n
n
nVincent escaped.
n
n
nAlthough the distance between him and the monsters decreased because of William, Vincent was still hopeful. He wanted to live.
n
n
nHe went and searched for a place to hide.
n
n
nJust when the Monster Horde was a few hundred meters away from him, he finally found a cave.
n
n
nHe ran towards the cave in a flash.
n
n
nThe Red Lion that had eaten William roared in excitement and chased after Vincent along with a few other monsters.
n
n
nVincent ran at full speed. The Red Lion was trailing behind him.
n
n
nThe distance between the Red Lion and Vincent was decreasing rapidly. Its front claws were about to grab onto Vincent’s back.
n
n
nFortunately, the cave was right in front of Vincent. He pounced forward and narrowly avoided the Red Lion’s claws.
n
n
nThe entrance of the cave was not big. As the Red Lion’s body was huge, it could only fit one claw into the cave.
n
n
nThe Red Lion tried to scratch around the cave using its one claw. Vincent dodged quickly every time.
n
n
nAlthough he was not injured by the Red Lion, his clothes were still torn into strips.
n
n
nWith a flip of his hand, Vincent summoned Hellfire and slapped the Red Lion’s claws.
n
n
n“Roar!”
n
n
nThe Red Lion let out a miserable cry and retracted its claws.
n
n
nIts claws were burnt to just charcoal in an instant.
n
n
nAs it was a fire attribute monster, it was resistant to fire to a certain degree.
n
n
nIf it was any other monster, there would not even be ashes left.
n
n
nWhen the Red Lion saw Hellfire still spreading, it decided to tear off its front claw entirely.
n
n
n“Roar!”
n
n
nThe pain that it felt was similar to someone’s heart being gouged out.
n
n
nIt was very angry that Vincent had managed to injure it.
n
n
nHowever, due to its large size, it could not do anything to Vincent at all.
n
n
nIt had no choice but to let the other monsters chase after Vincent to kill him.
n
n
nThe monsters naturally would not let Vincent go. He was food after all.
n
n
nTo the monsters, humans were simply a delicacy.
n
n
nThe stronger the monster, the more delicious the human was.
n
n
nThe monsters all scrambled to enter the cave.
n
n
nVincent looked at the monsters and took out his Purgatory Blade, his eyes filled with death.
n
n
n“Beasts! Come on!”
n
n
nHe attached Hellfire to his Purgatory Blade once again and used Collapsing Mountain Strike.
n
n
nBoom!
n
n
n“Roar!”
n
n
nThe first monster that entered the cave was split into two before it could even react.
n
n
nHowever, its fresh blood did not scare the other monsters.
n
n
nInstead, it aroused their ferocity. Each and every one of them tried their best to enter the cave.
n
n
nVincent brandished his Purgatory Blade like a tiger. He fought against the monsters bravely.
n
n
nAt first, he was only facing one monster at a time. However, slowly, the number of monsters increased. One, two, three…
n
n
nSuddenly, he was fighting six monsters at the same time.
n
n
nThe entire cave was filled with monsters. It was impossible for him to dodge. There was so little space, he could not even turn around.
n
n
nMonster Affinity; it was not that Vincent did not want to use the power but for some reason, it did not seem to work against the monsters when they were in a horde.
n
n
n“Ah!”
n
n
nVincent was caught off guard and his right hand was bitten by a Bone-Eating Rat.
n
n
nClang! His Purgatory Blade fell to the ground.
n
n
nVincent, who was already in a bad situation, was in a worse position after losing his Purgatory Blade.
n
n
n“Die!”
n
n
nVincent had no other choice. He used Hellfire to wrap his body.
n
n
nHis psionic power had been exhausted. It was his last resort and his last attack.
n
n
n“Roar!”
n
n
n“Roar Roar!”
n
n
n“Roar Roar Roar!”
n
n
nVincent’s attack was really sudden.
n
n
nNone of the six monsters could react in time. They were directly ignited by Hellfire.
n
n
nThey let out a miserable cry and were burnt to ashes.
n
n
nAt the same time, Vincent who was completely powerless at that point fell directly onto the ground.
n
n
nHe did not even have the mood to listen to what the system notification had to say.
n
n
nDeath was settling in permanently. So what if the system’s reward was good?
n
n
nThe Red Lion had been paying attention to the battle. It roared in excitement after seeing Vincent exhausted. He no longer had the strength to continue fighting.
n
n
nThe Red Lion was very carefree.
n
n
nIt used its remaining front claw to reach into the cave to grab Vincent.
n
n
nIt opened its bloody mouth and wanted to consume Vincent.
n
n
nVincent could smell its fishy breath.
n
n
nEverything became blurry, and Vincent slowly closed his eyes.
n
n
nAlthough he no longer had any psionic power left in his body, he still thought of a way to kill the monster that would cause both of them to die together.
n
n
nHe thought of it all of a sudden.
n
n
nSelf-destruct!
n
n
nHe waited for the moment the Red Lion put him into its mouth. He was ready to activate self-destruct and die together with the Red Lion.
n
n
nHowever, at that moment, a roar that Vincent was somewhat familiar with rang out. He immediately felt himself being grabbed and was placed gently on the ground.
n
n
nHe was very surprised. He opened his eyes. What he saw almost made him bite his tongue.
n
