Chapter 365: The Missing City: Part 3


“Aaarghhhh!!”


Just at that moment, a ma.s.sive grey skeleton in torn rags appeared out from the mist, in its hand was a ma.s.sive rusted blade with a purple glow on it as it made its way towards the two.


*Bam bam bam!!!*


The skeleton was desiccated, as its skin hugged the bones tightly, looking a skeleton model with a layer of skin draped upon it.


It raised its ma.s.sive chopping blade, as a black heart silhouette appeared in its chest. At that very instant, the meter-long blade slammed down with brutal force.


*Baaammm!!*


The ruined blade crashed down rapidly towards the old man’s face. And if he was to be hit by it, he would undoubtedly be split into two.


But strangely enough, the blade suddenly stopped midair, just barely an inch away from the old man’s forehead.


It was like an insect stuck in amber, as the blade just sat there unmoving. The black heart silhouette in the skeleton’s chest thumped again, as it beat wildly, trying to fight off the powerful binding force.


It was pointless.


A ma.s.sive, unknown force started to radiate from the old man’s body. And the force was getting stronger with every pa.s.sing second.


*Craaashhhh!!


Finally, the skeleton’s entire body simply just exploded into a rain of black power and disappeared into the air.


“Did you see it?” The old man smiled.


“This is the power you will get after opening the Tidal Gate.”


He had not moved a finger or any weapon, nor did he made any additional movement. He simply just stood there, and the skeleton self-destructed.


“If you are not a Palatinate, any other levels of power would not even be able to withstand our dark power aura.


This is a Palatinate.


This is power.”



Lin Sheng and Tenko Kasumi walked quietly along the street, and surprisingly, they had not ran into any danger or monsters.


All around them were nothing but vast numbers of ruined buildings standing in silence.


As Lin Sheng did not speak, Kasumi got so bored that she continued wandering about.


The city had three districts, and each district had at least twenty-odd streets. And the place they were at was also a once-bustling part of town.


Yet, an unknown incident had turned this place into a literal dead zone.


The two went into each and every building to inspect, rinse and repeat; and they found nothing aside from dust and rubbish.


Time soon pa.s.sed.


Half an hour later.


Lin Sheng pushed open a wooden door belonging to a shop that looked like a grocer, and sighed the moment he saw the empty shelves.


“Why isn’t there anyone here? Humans aside, not even monsters? That’s just too weird.”


Kasumi was chewing on her bread and gave him a curious look as she heard that.


“Wasn’t there one earlier? A monster.”


Lin Sheng was stunned.


“Where was it? Why didn’t I see it?


“It died before you even pushed the door open,” Kasumi said flatly.


“How did it died?” He asked, puzzled.


“I scared it to death,” Kasumi answered.


“A monster, scared to death?” Lin Sheng was a little speechless, and he immediately connected to Kasumi’s memories. And there was a monster inside the grocer.


It was not just the grocer, and in fact, Kasumi had been scaring hundreds of monsters to their doom on their way here.


“That many? Why didn’t I notice them?” Lin Sheng frowned as he felt something was off.


“This mist has the ability to inhibit your senses. So it’s normal that you don’t sell them.” Kasumi said.


“Then how did you scare them to death?” Lin Sheng quickly looked through her memories and found that she did not even lift a finger.


“Once you have reached a certain level in strength, a natural area-wide resistance will appear, and this resistance is normally beyond any monster’s ability to resist, so they died,” Kasumi answered seriously.


“Alright…” Lin Sheng could tell if she was lying or not, but if he cannot so much as to see the shadow of a monster, how is he going to test her strength out?


He needed to find a better way to test out how strong Kasumi was. He pondered for a moment before a spark appeared in his eyes.


“Right!”


*Creaaakkk.*


At that moment, the sound of a door opening rang out from a double story house in front of them.


A series of rhythmic footsteps rang and was making its way towards his direction from the mist. The mist started to fade as the distance closed, and Lin Sheng could finally see what that approaching being was.


It was a person.


A living person with two heads on his shoulders!


With his own, there were three heads altogether. The two heads on both of his shoulders wore a bizarre smile as they turned towards the head in the middle and were yammering about something.


The head was one male one female, their skin was horrifyingly pale as if they had a thick layer of powder on them.


Their lips, however, looked like they were stained with blood, and were eye-catchingly red.


The man wore a sullen expression. His sluggish eyes teemed with frustration as he slowly walked towards Lin Sheng and Kasumi.


This was the first monster that could ignore Kasumi’s aura and got so close to them.


“Look, Thane! We found something to eat! Fresh Food! We’ll be able to hang on for much longer!” The head on the left smiled as it spoke.


“It’s not easy to run into two living beings. We must ration the food this time, or else we’ll chomp down half of it without noticing…” The other head reminded.


“I know, I know. I did say there was good food in this direction right? See, listening to me will get you fed. I will be careful with the rationing this time, and we’ll slowly eat them once we take them back. We cannot afford any waste, so we need to break their legs, and bleed them a little so they don’t run away.” The head in the middle said in a stupor.


And soon, the person suddenly stopped with about ten meters distance away from Kasumi.


He looked at Kasumi, and then at Lin Sheng before silently making a turn.


“I feel like eating vegetarian for a few days now. I suddenly felt that tofu is delicious.”


“Right? I love tofu as well, but I love greens more!” The head of the left quickly added.


“I feel that Stir-fried cabbage with potatoes and tomatoes are pretty lit,” The head on the right added.


“Vege is the best!”


“Cabbage and potatoes’ the best!”


“Shut up, do you know how delicious tofu is?”


The three heads argued with one another as they turned into the alley on the right, and disappeared into it.


Kasumi did not say anything, but Lin Sheng was almost left in tears. This was the first time he saw a monster with such a desire to survive. The b.u.g.g.e.r seemed to have quite the intelligence and reaction.


He then gave Kasumi a curious look. Didn’t she despise evil so much that she’d run up to cleave into the moment she saw them? So why did she spared him?


He then transmitted his thoughts over.


Kasumi replied with nary a change to her expression. “I’m a reasonable person. I won’t butcher someone for nothing.”


“Slaughtering a city is my hobby, and I only slaughter the buildings, not any innocent lives.”


“Hooohh…” Lin Sheng was speechless. He finally understood what she was playing at. Tenko Kasumi is a very shrewd person, and most of the time she had just acted dumb, or be purposely obtuse.


The Night Lord was a lazy b.u.m, the Steel Lord with his lousy temper, Khadula loves collecting arms, and now Tenko Kasumi with a cheek the size of the Great Wall.


So much so that Lin Sheng started to wonder if there was something wrong with his summoning ritual.
