Chapter 82 - The Inheritance of a King-Level Powerhouse?

nSibis sighed. He regretted his decision to allow Vincent to join the Special Forces.
nIf Vincent had not joined the Special Forces, he would not have accepted the mission. If he did not accept the mission, he would not have disappeared.
n
n
nSibis prayed to God. If Vincent could come back alive, he would give up on the Godslayer plan and let Vincent live his life peacefully. This was even if he just lived the life of an ordinary person!
nSibis and Teacher Chris could not think of any solutions on their end.
nOn the students’ side, Chris, Angelina, Avril, Nabil, and Swire were also full of worry. Angelina had cried herself unconscious four times. Her eyes were so red and swollen that she could not even see anything.
nSwire was Vincent’s friend. After coming to Quinn, he got to know Chris and the others. He then joined their circle.
n
n
n“Don’t worry, Vincent is the strongest person in our generation. He has a monster that can fight two levels above him, he’ll be fine,” said Chris.
nChris tried consoling his four friends. Nevertheless, everyone could still see the unconcealable worry in his eyes.
nFour of them did not speak. All of them looked like they had lost their souls.
nThey really wanted to go out and find Vincent. However, Sibis had strictly forbidden them from leaving Blazing City. In order to prevent them from leaving, he even sent special people to watch over them.
n
n
nSibis was very upset after losing Vincent. He cannot imagine if he lost his remaining group of geniuses. Sibis could hardly imagine the kind of situation Falcon Country and the human race would be in in the next few decades.
nThe special enrollment competition had already caused serious losses to Falcon Country’s younger generation. It had even somewhat shaken the foundation of the country. If any more problems arise, the Falcon Country would be wiped off the face of the earth.
nWithout experts to fight against monsters, only death awaits the entire Falcon Country.
nThis kind of responsibility was not something that Sibis could bear!
nIf it were anyone else, they too would not be able to bear such a heavy responsibility.
nIn Hero City, the entire city was under martial law. Johnny had released everyone under his command to look for Vincent. He had even issued a huge reward.
n
n
nThe Special Forces members originally wanted to see Vincent who accepted ten missions become a joke. However, they could not even joke about it anymore. They all had to go out and search for Vincent. They had even lost a five-man team.
nThey did not actually have any bad intentions towards Vincent. They were just uncomfortable that Vincent became Squadron Leader out of nowhere.
nThey were also very anxious after learning that Vincent had gone missing.
nAs long as one was observant, one could tell that Vincent would definitely become the backbone of humanity in the future if he had the chance to grow.
nVincent who was in the Utopia Fantasy Land had no idea what was going on over at Quinn.
nVincent looked at the middle-aged man in front of him. The man had the same combat strength as him.
nHe panted heavily.
nThe man’s gaze was dull. It was as if he did not have a soul. When he fought, he was extremely frenzied. He was like an endless tsunami.
n
n
nThe most terrifying thing was that he never got tired, and his defense was extremely strong. Vincent’s attacks had no effect on him.
nAt the start of the battle, Vincent did not even have the strength to defend. As the battle progressed, Vincent was able to achieve a draw result.
nThe middle-aged man roared and launched another attack. His entire body was like a speeding train. He then crashed into Vincent.
nVincent spread his Flaming Wings and soared into the sky. At the same time, he took out his Purgatory Blade and performed Collapsing Mountain Strike.
nSwoosh!
nA transparent blade aura that was 80 meters long, 20 meters tall, and five meters thick flew towards the middle-aged man.
nWherever it passed, space would ripple. It was extremely powerful.
nIn the past, if Vincent wanted to use his Purgatory Blade, he would have to add Hellfire to it.
nHowever, in the present, all he needed to do was mobilize his psionic power. Just using Collapsing Mountain Strike alone was comparable to adding Hellfire on his blade.
nIt was obvious that he had grown a lot in the past two months.
nThe middle-aged man did not dodge. He crossed his arms in front of him and his hands transformed into claws. He aimed his claws at Vincent’s blade.
nThe Purgatory Blade hit the man’s arms. A metal sound rang out. The middle-aged man immediately used his hands to grab the blade.
nDing!
n
n
n“Break!” shouted the middle-aged man in a low voice.
nThe man then pulled his arms behind his back and tore the Purgatory Blade into pieces.
nAlthough this was not the first time such a situation had happened, Vincent still could not accept it.
nThe level of the Collapsing Mountain Strike may not be very high, but its destructive power still far exceeded the limits of its level.
nIn terms of power, it was ten times stronger than before. However, even with such power, it was unable to break through the middle-aged man’s defense. Instead, Vincent’s blade had been destroyed.
nSo far, the middle-aged man had not used a single combat skill, much less his superpower. He was purely relying on his body strength to fight against Vincent.
nOn the other hand, other than a few extremely powerful skills that Vincent had yet to use, he had used up all his other skills.
n“Flamethrower Barrage!”
n“Hellfire Prison!”
n“Jump Slash!”
nVincent did not stop attacking. However, his Collapsing Mountain Strike was torn apart by the middle-aged man. He then launched three attacks.
nThe middle-aged man’s pair of meaty palms were like shields. He flapped them left and right and sent Vincent’s attacks flying.
nThe man bent his knees and squatted down. He then jumped up and crashed into Vincent like a missile.
nVincent dodged and twisted the Hellfire Blade in his hand. He attached Hellfire to it and launched Collapsing Mountain Strike again.
nHowever, the Collapsing Mountain Strike this time was different from his previous ones. Vincent had used it five times in a row. There were five streams of his blade aura in the air. They were all gathered together. The surrounding space shattered and he became much faster.
nNevertheless, he still drained half of his psionic power even with his current psionic condensation and recovery speed.
nThis was Vincent’s strongest attack so far.
nEven space was shattered by his blade’s aura. Its power was evident.
nHowever, the middle-aged man, who was in the air without any use of force, was not injured by Vincent’s blade. He was only sent flying by the tremendous force.
nWhen Vincent’s blade struck the middle-aged man, it shattered into pieces and fell to the ground. It then disappeared.
nThe space that was shattered by the blade’s aura slowly recovered and finally disappeared.
nThe middle-aged man landed on the ground and left a huge pit.
nThe middle-aged man jumped out of the pit in a blink of an eye. Other than his clothes being torn, he was not injured at all.
nVincent was exhausted after a long and intense battle.
nThe Godly King’s Posture was healing his body at a rapid speed. However, as everything happened so quickly, Vincent’s exhaustion far exceeded his recovery speed.
nThe middle-aged man continued to attack Vincent. This time, his attack speed was even faster than before.
nBy the time Vincent sensed danger, the middle-aged man had already appeared in front of him. His fist, like a cannon, slammed against Vincent’s chest.
nVincent did not have any time to react. He only felt pain in his chest. He spat out a mouthful of blood after being embedded in the ceiling.
n“What’s going on? How was he so fast?” asked Vincent.
nVincent looked at the middle-aged man standing at the edge of the pit. His face was filled with shock.
nVincent then turned to look at the middle-aged man who had attacked him earlier. How could there be two people that looked exactly the same?
nThe middle-aged man continued to attack. He stepped into the air and produced a sonic boom.
nAt the same time, the middle-aged man standing at the edge of the pit slowly disappeared.
n“It’s an afterimage!” said Vincent.
nVincent widened his eyes and wrapped himself in Hellfire.
n“World of Hellfire!”
nHe no longer held back and unleashed Hellfire with all his might.
nAfter taking into consideration the middle-aged man’s speed, if Vincent held back, he would definitely be crushed into sand.
nWorld of Hellfire was his most powerful attack. He could not predict what kind of damage and consequences it would cause.
n“Eh?”
nThe man suddenly spoke up. He was clearly very surprised.
n“What a powerful, pure, and violent power. Little guy, I did not expect your superpower to be so powerful!” said the man.
nWhilst he was speaking, Hellfire had spread over to him and ignited him.
nUnlike before, the middle-aged man was actually able to withstand Hellfire. Although his skin had become charred black and there was blood flowing out, he would not be burned to death in a short period of time.
nThis was the first time Vincent had encountered such a situation after using Hellfire with all his might.
n“It’s done! Your combat strength has passed the test,” said the old man.
nVincent felt an indescribable power sweep through the first layer of his skin.
nHis Hellfire had been gathered by this power and was transformed into a fireball. It floated in front of Vincent and looked very obedient.
n“Hmm? Does it also have the effect of purification? Not bad! Little guy, you really surprised me more and more each time.”
nVincent did not pay any attention to him. His eyes were wide open. He stared blankly at the gentle Hellfire flame in front of him.
nToo strong! Too terrifying!
nHe did not even show his true body yet. By just saying one word, a mysterious power from an unknown origin had withdrawn Hellfire.
nVincent, who knew how terrifying Hellfire was, was shocked after seeing the incident unfold before him.
nEven the great Sibis used a lot of effort to stop Hellfire when he was trying to prevent it from causing bigger damage.
nThe man definitely had more strength than Sibis.
nThe weakest level he could be at was the king-level.
nVincent swallowed hard.
nThis was actually a test by the king-level powerhouse!
nThere were only five king-level powerhouses in the world at that moment. Vincent had actually encountered the inheritance of a king-level powerhouse by chance.
nSuch opportunity was not something that could be described as heaven-defying luck. It was something that could only be encountered by chance.
nVincent withdrew the Hellfire ball that was in front of him. He walked up to the entrance of the tower. A wooden staircase suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Vincent walked up the stairs.
