Chapter 1138: Torture the Fire Bear
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The trees which were knocked over by the giant bear were also shrouded by the dark fire. In the dark fire, the tree trunks, branches, and leaves and the gra.s.ses and vines on the ground vanished within a blink. The sands and stones were devoured too. The ground sank down.
Lin Qiao controlled the fire on the bear’s body with one hand, and raised the fire on the other areas with the other, threw it back to the bear.
“Roar!” The great stickiness and devouring nature of Lin Qiao’s netherworld fire made the bear suffer. The bear made a few rolls on the ground but still couldn’t get rid of the netherworld fire. It quickly stood up and uttered a raging roar toward the sky.
Next, the bear’s fire power which had been resisting Lin Qiao’s netherworld fire suddenly shrink and then exploded.
Boom! The scorching hot, glowing red fire energy exploded like a bomb. The impact force spread in all directions, created a huge and deep pit in the forest, which was already devastated. The new pit was times larger than the original one, and the trees near it were shredded.
The energy that the bear released when it was fighting the wolf, and the energy it let out to fight Lin Qiao created two pits in the forest, blew away the poisonous gas in the area and generated a huge breach in the forest.
While controlling her netherworld fire, Lin Qiao suddenly shook her hands. Her arms flinched slightly as if someone had thrown those arms back toward her body. Following her movement, the netherworld fire on the bear’s body erupted.
The bear became a fiery bear, and the red fire blazed ragingly on its body as it charged at Lin Qiao while roaring thunderously.
“Roar!”
Lin Qiao raised her brows. The bear was at level-eight but seemed to be a little weaker than the eye-less gorilla that she found underground. It had fire power though…
However, the bear was quite powerful even though it was a little weaker than Strong. Lin Qiao might have avoided the bear if she didn’t break into level-eight before leaving her base.
Watching the bear rus.h.i.+ng at herself with rage, seeming ready to tear her into pieces and eat her, Lin Qiao disappeared from where she was.
From nearby, Lan Lu watched her disappear and gave a sigh. The zombie lady had upgraded ridiculously. Not long ago, her vibe was only at level-seven, but now, she seemed to have entered level-eight already. The vibe coming from her was already stronger than that belonging to Lan Lu himself. He figured that if he picked up a fight against her, he would be the one being tortured.
She was not a superpowered human being but a zombie. The vibe of a zombie emperor could completely suppress that of a level-eight superpowered human being. Of course, a zombie emperor could be stronger than a level-eight man. Zombies could always easily defeat humans at their own levels.
Lin Qiao’s sudden disappearance made the enormous fiery bear pause for two seconds with confusion when it rushed to where she was standing before.
“Roar… Er?” It stood there and looked around. Realizing that its target was gone, it burst in rage as it raised its head and gave another deafening roar.
“Oarrrrr!”
At that moment, Lin Qiao had sneakily moved to the spot about ten meters behind the bear, sensing waves of hot air coming from the bear’s body. Her body condition was rather weird currently as she was afraid of the heat the most. Heat could make her feel extremely uncomfortable as if her brain was being burnt.
Her body should be dead, but still was so afraid of heat. She wasn’t afraid of coldness though. She had no idea what was going on, but guessed that it might be a side effect brought to her by the lake water.
Even though she was afraid of the heat, she could, of course, not flinch when carrying a mission or let that affect her.
When she moved behind the fiery bear, she popped her sharp claws.
Against the great heat, she swiftly approached the bear. From about eight meters away from the bear, she suddenly leaped high and descended toward the bear from the midair, wielding her claws while disabling her invisibility. A puff of black fire burst out of her palms as her claws fleetingly and accurately pierced into the back of the bear’s neck.
“Roar!” Instinctively, the bear felt a coldness from its back. It gave a start and quickly turned around. But before it could turn its body, it sensed a sharp pain from one side of its neck.
“Owo…” A shrill howl echoed through the forest ten miles in radius.
Wei Haichao was carrying the unconscious Hou Guozhong, looking into the battlefield from a distance away. Hearing the bear howl from time to time and sensing the newly appeared strong vibe, he became nervous.
The vibe was no weaker than Lan Lu’s, meaning that its owner was another level-eight superpower possessor. The vibe was strange and familiar at the same time. He couldn’t tell whom it belonged to, but he was sure that it did not belong to Wu Chengyue or his Chief.
Was there a new level-eight superpower possessor in the country? Which one of all the level-seven beings from the bases in the country could suddenly enter level-eight?
At that time, Lin Kui and the other three had been hiding quietly near the cliff, which was not far away from the forest. Soon, a series of new vibes were sensed, one of which was very strong. It completely suppressed the vibes of Lin Kui and Yan Huiguang, who were both at level-seven.
Lin Kui could clearly feel that a level-eight superpower possessor was coming, so he quickly flashed to Duan Juan’s side.
“Some other people are coming here, and one of them is at level-eight.” He moved to Duan Juan’s side and faced the incoming vibe as he reminded her.
On hearing his words, Duan Juan stopped short and asked, “Level-eight? Chief Wu? No, Chief Wu shouldn’t be here at this time. It’s not Si Kongchen, is it?”
“It’s not Wu Chengyue,” said Lin Kui.
He could recognize Wu Chengyue’s vibe and scent. The level-eight vibe was a little familiar to him, but he was sure that it did not belong to Wu Chengyue.
“You’re right. Si Kongchen is here.” Lin Kui remembered Si Kongchen’s scent and said.
“What is he doing here?” Duan Juan furrowed her brows, “Does he not trust his subordinates with the job? Is he coming here to finish the level-nine man himself?”
That made sense. The level-nine man was protected by Lan Lu, a level-eight spirit power possessor. Without someone at his level, it would be difficult to attain the level-nine man’s nucleus.
Lin Kui nodded as he took off his coat. Black hair grew out of his skin and his face quickly twisted, turning into a round panther face. Soon, a large, muscular black panther showed up beside Duan Juan. The panther swiftly and silently darted away from Duan Juan, toward Yan Huiguang. Only in his panther shape could Lin Kui perfectly hide his vibe.
At the same time, Duan Juan drew back toward Shui Mingjun.
Before going down the cliff, Lin Qiao told them to stay there and see how things went if what was happening had nothing to do with them.
But now, Si Kongchen was here. So, they had to move slightly away, in case he detected their vibes.
