Global Descent: 100×Reward Chapter 68 - Priest, I Think I Can Still Be Saved

Chapter 68: Priest, I Think I Can Still Be Saved

“What’s going on, Old Xun? Why are you shouting so much? That weak brat, Zhang Liang, killed someone? Who’s so unlucky?”

Tru held the pot in one hand and looked curiously at Xun Mingyuan, who was rus.h.i.+ng over.

For them, people dying was nothing rare.

There were large numbers of people dying every day in the underworld. Even a child could look on expressionlessly as villains were killed at the vegetable market. It was no surprise.

“He really… really killed someone. I’m not lying. It’s Niu Wei. I don’t know what happened between that idiot and Zhang Liang. They fought and fought until they were really angry. We couldn’t persuade them at all. Zhang Liang picked up the metal rod used to move the fish and hit Niu Wei on the head. Niu Wei’s head was smashed and covered in ‘green’ blood as he laid on the ground twitching. He is probably dead.”

Just a few hundred meters of running and Xun Mingyuan was already panting heavily.

The stamina of Earth people was a lot weaker as compared to the natives of the underworld.

“Seriously…”

Tru muttered something and turned to his lord.

At this moment, Lin Ye had already activated his Heart’s Web talent. Invisible waves spread to the tents near the fishery.

Zhang Liang was made to work in the fishery as punishment because he did not tell the truth.

Niu Wei, on the other hand, had a bad habit of cursing in his heart and was also made to work at the fishery as punishment.

Not long ago, he had even managed to peek using the Heart’s Web’s talent.

These guys formed a friends’ chat channel. Niu Wei made a big fuss, wanting the others to escape with him.

Although he didn’t succeed, that guy definitely wouldn’t give up.

It might be related to this matter.

Lin Ye narrowed his eyes. However, he did not expect that the one who died was not Zhang Liang but Niu Wei.

Wait… wait. Dead my a.s.s. He still had half a breath.

He could still see Niu Wei’s breath with his Heart’s Web.

However, his breath was extremely weak – like a candle in the wind. If he wasn’t careful, he might really die.

On the contrary, Zhang Liang felt a bit off.

A large amount of black particles were floating above his head.

According to the Heart’s Web talent’s interpretation of emotional particles, black represented darkness, the blackening of one’s soul.

In his line of sight, Zhang Liang had a ferocious look on his face. Even though he was pressed to the ground by the patrol team, he was still fiercely cursing at Niu Wei who was lying on the ground.

“He was agitated?”

Lin Ye raised his eyebrows and thought for a moment. Then he beckoned to Gran, who was sitting cross-legged on the platform absorbing light particles. “Come, let’s go together.”

“I…” Light Priest Gran’s face was pale, and he wanted to refuse.

However, he could not disobey his Lord’s orders.

He covered his crotch and walked over slowly, looking like a wounded crab. He bent his legs and gasped after taking a few steps.

“This…” Lin Ye looked suspiciously at Gran.

“My b.a.l.l.s… my b.a.l.l.s hurt!” Priest Gran’s face turned red as he explained.

“It’s okay. I get it. You just made a mistake that any man would. It’s not your fault…”

Lin Ye showed an expression that he vaguely understood what happened but at the same time could not help but laugh out loud.

This old man was a pervert.

Perhaps he wanted to take advantage of the young lady and got beaten up.

He deserved it!

“My Lord, it’s not what you think!”

Gran grimaced.

As smart as he was, how could he not tell what his Lord was thinking? He screamed in his heart.

Before he could explain, a violent wind blew.

Whoosh—

It was Adelia, who seemed to have reached the edge of advancement. A large amount of green wind elemental energy surrounded her.

Her entire body was suspended within the gale as she frantically absorbed the wind elemental energy.

Boom!

A few seconds later, the invisible tornado dissipated and the beautiful figure landed on the ground.

It was clear that after the corpse poison was removed and coupled with the Level 4 Body Strengthening Pill, she eventually benefited from this disaster and successfully advanced to Cla.s.s 4.

After breaking through, Adelia was in a good mood. She had also heard the conversation between Lin Ye and the others. She walked over with a smile and complained, “My Lord, this old man is dirty-minded. Please don’t learn from him.”

“Adelia! It’s thanks to me that you were able to break through! How could you humiliate me like this?!” Gran was trembling with rage.

If this continued, he would not be able to protect his integrity!!!

“My Lord, Zhang Liang…” Xun Mingyuan, who was standing behind them, could not help but remind them weakly when he saw how indifferent they were.

“That’s true. He’s not completely dead yet. Let’s go. Ride the Wind Wolves which I’ve just tamed.”

Lin Ye nodded and whistled.

Tap-tap-tap…

Five wind elemental energy wrapped Wind Wolves as large as oxen flew over.

They rubbed their heads against Lin Ye’s legs affectionately and wagged her tail wildly.

“My Lord has learned beast taming?”

“It seems like his level isn’t low too!”

Gran, Tru, and Adelia’s eyes lit up. They had a newfound understanding of how powerful their Lord was.

“My… my lord, it’s better for me to walk over. I have motion sickness.”

Xun Mingyuan timidly said as he looked at the incomparably fierce Wind Wolf.

“Suit yourself.”

Lin Ye acknowledged and led the three of them to the fishery.

The Wind Wolf was a high Cla.s.s 3 Magical Beast, which was also of the wind attribute. Its speed was much faster than the Giant Earth Wolves.

In less than ten seconds, the four of them reached the resting area near the riverside fishery.

At this moment, this place was surrounded by native workers who were watching the commotion and patrolling soldiers who controlled the situation.

“Our Lord is here!”

“Get out of the way, don’t block his path!”

“Those who disturb the Lord’s mount will be locked up!”

Seeing the group of mighty Wind Wolves from afar, the patrol team quickly cleared out a three-metre wide pa.s.sageway for them.

Moments later, Lin Ye and the other three jumped off the Wind Wolf’s back and quickly walked to the scene.

Looking at Niu Wei who was lying in a pool of green blood, Lin Ye waved his hand and said, “Gran.”

The latter immediately understood and went over to cast the Sacred Healing Spell.

The white light particles entered Niu Wei’s body.

Very quickly, the blood stopped. Niu Wei opened one of his eyes and shouted sadly, “Lord… My Lord, save me!”

Lin Ye looked at Gran.

Gran shook his head. “It’s hopeless. There’s such a big hole in the head. It’s terminal lucidity right now. Even with sacred healing, he can only live a few more minutes.”

“…”

Niu Wei was so anxious that he cried. “No! It’s not like that. Gran… Priest Gran, I think I can still be saved. Please save me!”

“Give up on treatment, child. This is just your hallucination. Other than Sacred Healing from experts like the pope and the archbishop or a Level 9 healing pill, no one can save you. Rest a.s.sured, the lord will bury you well.”

Gran said with regret.

Both options, either of them, was a death sentence for Niu Wei.

Whoosh—

Instantly, large amounts of black emotional particles appeared above Niu Wei’s head.

His eyes were bloodshot as he glared angrily at Zhang Liang, who was pinned to the ground by the patrolling soldiers. It was as if he wanted to tear into his flesh and drink his blood.

In the end, he even hated Lin Ye.

If not for this b.a.s.t.a.r.d, he would still be a lord of a territory.

Now that he was going to die anyway, he wasn’t scared, opening his mouth to curse out.

“Gran, there’s no need to treat him anymore.” Lin Ye couldn’t be bothered with such a person.

After losing the sacred healing of Gran, Niu Wei fell into unconsciousness soon, and his life seeped out of him at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After saying that, he walked over to Zhang Liang and squatted down. He asked, “What’s your situation?”

“He killed my father. My Lord, let me go please. As long as I kill him, I’m willing to be your dog!”

Zhang Liang’s eyes were red. As he spoke, his tears flowed down uncontrollably. “This dogsh*t. He wanted to run away by himself, but I wasn’t willing to. He played dirty. While I was resting, he used my Civilization Archive to send a message to my family channel.”

“He hinted to my father that I was captured by other lords and that my life was at stake.”

“My dad was worried about me, so he wanted to come out and save me. He didn’t expect to get bitten by a zombie on the way.”

“He is lying in his graveyard waiting to die. My father had just built his bunker. He has no chance to kill zombies for any healing-type soldiers to drop. In two days, the corpse poison will act up and he will die…”

Got it.

Hearing this, Lin Ye finally understood the whole story.

Niu Wei, this fool, thought that he was smart and tried to hint at Zhang Liang’s father to persuade Zhang Liang to escape with him.

In the end, he did not expect to cause this disaster and ended up harming Zhang Liang’s father.

Now Niu Wei had to die for sure. As for Zhang Liang…

Lin Ye hesitated.

He was about to set out to clear the surrounding Level 1 Haunted Houses, and Zhang Liang’s treasure hunting talent was a perfect match with Heart’s Web.

According to the protagonist’s mission, he should kill him straightaway and seize the treasure seeking talent.

“Kill him! Since his soul has already darkened, it’s not safe to keep such a person by my side.” Lin Ye sighed in his heart.

Zhang Liang, who was under his feet, seemed to sense something. His expression changed drastically. At first, he was horrified, but soon, he revealed an ecstatic look.

At the same time, Lin Ye’s system sent a reward notification.
