Exotic Battlefield: I Can Activate Dual Talents-Chapter 553 - 423: Those Who Block Me Shall Die (Part 2)
At the same time.
Lu Lin saw the ancient wooden doors open one after another at the beginning of more than twenty suspended staircases in the huge space.
Monsters, bizarre combinations of humans and animals, emerged from them, their eyes fixed intently in the direction of Lu Lin.
One, two, three...
Lu Lin counted the monsters that came out; there were twelve monsters on each suspended staircase.
It seemed like the monsters he had encountered in the Coffin Hall of Clarmear were also twelve.
After these monsters ascended the suspended staircases, the wooden doors behind them did not close. Immediately, armored warriors, their faces obscured, holding various weapons, stepped out.
Some warriors held short axes, some wielded heavy hammers, some brandished curved knives, and others carried long spears, with even a few carrying horsewhips.
More than twenty armored warriors appeared on the suspended staircases. This made Lu Lin tense.
Although the defensive capability of these armored warriors was not strong, they could likely release long-range attacks like Sword Qi and Knife Aura.
Such long-range attacks were far more terrifying than the Star Power Arrows Lu Lin had encountered before.
If these guys were to attack from afar, Lu Lin’s situation would undoubtedly be very dangerous.
He had to knock these things down first.
Lu Lin had thought about teleportation, but in this Sacrificial Temple, there seemed to be a Star Array that prohibited it.
Likewise, Lu Lin’s Spiritual Strength was also useless against these undead-like armored warriors.
To take them down, Lu Lin would have to deal with them personally.
But time... may not be enough.
In the vast space, everyone showed hostility towards Lu Lin, but the four priests in Crescent Moon Robes continued their work after just a glance at him.
Rescuing Chen Xiran might mean not being able to leave.
If he attacked the armored warriors first, who knows what might happen to Chen Xiran.
While Lu Lin hesitated, the monsters and armored warriors on more than twenty passageways advanced rapidly.
They moved on the suspended staircases as if walking on flat ground, avoiding the illusions Lu Lin had encountered.
In almost no time, they had covered half the distance.
If he continued to hesitate, Lu Lin would only be able to react passively in battle.
No.
He must seize the initiative in the battle.
Lu Lin took a step forward, a broken knife appearing in his hand, and swung it towards a priest in a Crescent Moon Robe drawing patterns on Chen Xiran.
But it was as if the opponent felt nothing and continued with his previous actions.
Die.
A cold glint flashed in Lu Lin’s eyes.
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, the White Robed Sacrificer was slashed away by Lu Lin, but there was not a scratch on him.
Even his white Crescent Moon Robe was untouched.
How could this be?
Lu Lin, enraged, had attacked without using any Star Skill or Star Martial, but with at least a force of ten million catties, ordinary people couldn’t possibly withstand it.
Even a Star General would likely fall under such an attack by Lu Lin.
Yet the opponent was unscathed.
No.
The opponent wasn’t completely unharmed.
Lu Lin’s peripheral vision caught sight of Chen Xiran, bound to the cross, a trickle of blood at her lips.
This attack had simply been transferred to Chen Xiran.
In other words, if Lu Lin wanted to save Chen Xiran by slaying them, he would first have to kill Chen Xiran.
What kind of nonsense situation was this?
These four White Robed Sacrificers — not only could he not kill them, but he also had to protect them?
Given this, Lu Lin only had one choice left.
Take Chen Xiran away.
Then make a run for it.
The monsters and armored warriors on the twenty staircases were closing in.
Lu Lin had no time to hesitate. He saw an armored warrior with a bow already nocking an arrow.
Time waits for no one.
Lu Lin fixed his gaze on the cross where Chen Xiran was held and pushed off forcefully, landing directly on the horizontal beam of the cross.
The broken knife struck the rope binding Chen Xiran’s arms.
The rope snapped.
Lu Lin didn’t have time to scrutinize the rope’s material; with a couple of swift motions, he severed the ropes binding Chen Xiran’s other arm and legs.
He pulled a bedsheet from his storage space and wrapped it around Chen Xiran.
Chen Xiran was now entirely unclothed, marked with strange patterns, but Lu Lin, shielded by a layer of fine velvet, had no intent of taking any advantage.
Go!
Lu Lin let out a low roar, seeing a monster already reaching the Sacrificial Platform.
He had no desire to stay and fight.
At this moment, fighting would only delay Lu Lin’s escape.
This time, his goal was to save Chen Xiran, not to battle these monsters.
Since Lu Lin had reached his goal, it was naturally wise to leave at once.
"Whoosh."
A piercing sound split the air.
Instinctively, Lu Lin tilted his head.
It was the armored warrior wielding the bow and arrow.
The opponent had maintained his position, waiting for Lu Lin to let his guard down for just a moment.
But Lu Lin was exceedingly cautious.
Now that Lu Lin had taken Chen Xiran away, they were bound to act.
"Swish."
"Swish swish."
"Buzz."
"Buzz buzz."
At the same time, distinct whooshing sounds began to echo as if responding to a signal.
There was Sword Qi, Knife Aura, Spear Qi, and even javelins and flying axes.
Relying on the footwork method he learned in the dodgeball training room at Iron Blood University, Lu Lin evaded these attacks one after another.
However, as Lu Lin dodged the armored warriors’ attacks, three monsters on staircases had already reached the platform.
Controlled as if manipulated, they stood directly in Lu Lin’s path back.
Battle was about to erupt.
Lu Lin looked at the growing number of monsters around him and the advancing armored warriors moving toward the Sacrificial Platform.
Anger flared up inside him.
He glared at the monsters blocking his way, gritting his teeth.
He shouted loudly.
"Those who block me—"
"Die!"
Lu Lin stomped the ground with force, his body shooting forth like a cannonball towards the cluster of monsters.
Fifty million catties of tremendous power.
A full outburst.
The Bright Moon Slash, ideal for mass combat and imbued with Sword Intent, was unleashed.
"Swish!"
Almost as soon as Lu Lin completed the swing of his knife.
The monsters blocking his path were all split in half by Lu Lin.
A rough count showed that at least a dozen monsters met their end in that strike.
Their bodies severed, they were undoubtedly dead beyond doubt.
With a single attack, he achieved great success.
Lu Lin, carrying Chen Xiran on his back, turned to face the remaining monsters.
It’s said that once a monster is killed, it will die.
Then it would be best to kill them all.
These distorted monsters were merely a waste of resources.
"New Moon Slash."
"Swish."
"Half Moon Slash."
"Swish."
"Bright Moon Slash."
"Swish."
Lu Lin gathered all the Star Power in his body, swinging his knife three consecutive times.
With the overwhelming force of fifty million catties and the Sword Intent of the Bright Moon Slash, not a single monster could withstand Lu Lin’s attack.
What was once the relatively open Sacrificial Platform instantly turned into a living hell.
Severed limbs and various body parts were scattered around, splatters of red blood and black fur everywhere.
"Kill!"
The Earth-based Star Power within Lu Lin had significantly decreased due to his explosive surge.
Continuing at this rate, his Earth-based Star Power would be entirely depleted after three more bursts.
However, what was there to worry about?
Lu Lin still possessed an Eye Series Star Vein.
"Kill!"
Lu Lin roared once again, charging with Chen Xiran on his back towards the throng of monsters.
