Chapter 335: Chapter 311: I Choose to Make It Drop

Unlocking a second-stage ability wasn’t what was terrifying. The truly terrifying part was that Lu Feng was a dual ability user.

After all, he already had those two cubs that could easily send Li Lin’s adult Mutant Beasts flying.

Li Lin’s adult Mutant Beasts had been handpicked; the Li Family had paid a great price to help him control them. Their strength far surpassed that of ordinary Mutant Beasts.

But now, these two adult Mutant Beasts had been sent flying by a pair of cubs. ’Were those really just cubs?’

Even the cubs of the Mutated Beast Kings under Li Lin’s control didn’t possess that kind of power; in fact, those cubs weren’t even old enough to be effective in battle yet.

And to top it all off, Lu Feng’s second ability was speed.

Everyone knew Speed Ability Users were among the most difficult to deal with. If they couldn’t win, they could run. If they could win, you couldn’t escape. This completely negated the typical weaknesses of a Summoning Beast Ability User.

Moreover, a speed ability with its second stage unlocked was even more terrifying. After he dodged Li Lin’s two Mutant Beasts, another four pounced, trying to block his path. Yet he evaded them with ease; they couldn’t even touch him.

"Protect Li Lin!" Li Sheng roared upon seeing this.

As things stood, their Li Family was at a complete disadvantage. If Lu Feng killed Li Lin, the Mutant Beasts would be left without a master. That would be an absolute disaster.

This time, his Li Family might just be wiped out here.

The other Li Family ability users naturally understood this as well.

A pair of twins suddenly appeared at Li Lin’s side, their muscles bulging.

The two men didn’t attack Lu Feng. Instead, they touched their fists together and slammed them into the ground. In the next moment, the earth roiled and surged upwards, enveloping Li Lin within a small, fortress-like structure.

"Li Lin, use everything you have! Command the Mutant Beasts to tear Lu Feng apart!" Li Sheng shouted again, not daring to hesitate.

These two ability users weren’t part of the Li Family by blood. They had been adopted, precisely for their abilities.

The twins shared the same ability: earth manipulation. However, they couldn’t use it to attack, only to construct things.

At times, it seemed like a rather useless ability.

But for defensive purposes like this, it was an exceptionally good ability. What was even more unique was that when the twins used their power together, its defensive effect was amplified by a whole level, making it even stronger.

Under these circumstances, even with his second-stage ability unlocked, Lu Feng wouldn’t be able to break the brothers’ defense right away.

After all, Speed Ability Users were generally much weaker in terms of raw strength.

So, as long as Li Lin’s Mutant Beasts attacked Lu Feng all at once, they might be able to eliminate him and turn the tables.

Besides, he refused to believe Lu Feng had the same level of power as the Flame Emperor. Even if his speed was incredible, facing an assault from nearly thirty powerful Mutant Beasts, a single misstep would mean death.

Lu Feng appeared before the barrier in an instant, his steel blade slashing down upon the earthen wall. To his surprise, though dirt and debris flew, the defense held, completely unbroken.

The defense was surprisingly strong.

With a thought, he produced a laser rifle and fired a shot at the earthen defense.

But even the laser blast failed to break through the earthen wall.

’Not bad,’ Lu Feng thought, surprised.

A gust of wind howled as several Mutant Beasts lunged at him from behind.

However, contrary to Li Sheng’s expectations, Lu Feng didn’t dodge. Instead, he simply stood there, as if waiting for the Mutant Beasts to pounce.

When Li Sheng and Li Lin saw this, their faces lit up with joy. ’To stand there dazed in the face of these Mutant Beasts... he’s just asking to die.’

At such close range, he had no chance to dodge.

But the outcome was completely unexpected.

As the Mutant Beasts pounced, they slammed into Lu Feng’s energy barrier and were immediately sent crashing to the ground.

The more ferocious their charge, the more violent the resulting impact. Since they couldn’t break the energy barrier, the full force of their own attack was turned back upon them.

In an instant, the whimpers of several Mutant Beasts filled the air.

One of the Mutant Beasts’ heads was twisted at an unnatural angle; it had clearly broken its own neck in the collision.

This scene made Li Sheng’s face drain of color. "Three abilities? How is that possible?"

’Am I dreaming?’ He truly began to wonder. Otherwise, how could something so ridiculous be happening?

’Three abilities... It’s utterly impossible.’

The entire City East Alliance hadn’t produced a single dual ability user, yet here in the East Suburb Fortress there were suddenly several. And now, who would have thought this Lu Feng actually had *three* abilities?

But in the next moment, something even more horrifying occurred.

Seeing the strength of the Li Family’s earthen defense, Lu Feng didn’t hesitate. He directly activated Cang Hu’s Beastification ability.

If he didn’t deal with Li Lin quickly, the powerful and numerous Mutant Beasts under his control would start causing casualties on the East Suburb Fortress’s side.

His goal was to suffer zero casualties on his side and annihilate the Li Family’s forces as quickly as possible.

Upon activating his Beastification ability, a black, tattoo-like pattern resembling the character for "King" appeared on Lu Feng’s forehead, looking both deep and natural. At the same time, marking his second-stage unlock, another set of markings appeared on his cheeks.

At that moment, his strength surged to its peak. He threw a ferocious punch at the twins’ earthen defense.

BAM!~

A terrifying crash echoed instantly.

With that one punch, the earthen defense shattered instantly. Even the twins inside were sent flying by the shockwave, tumbling across the ground.

"You..." Li Lin retreated in terror. Even though he too had unlocked his second-stage ability, as a Summoning Beast Ability User, he was helpless in close combat, completely at his opponent’s mercy.

"Four abilities... What kind of monster is he?" Li Sheng’s face was completely drained of blood.

An ability user with a second-stage unlock was already terrifying enough.

But a second-stage unlocked ability user with *four* abilities... that was enough to drive anyone to despair.

’How are we supposed to fight this?’

He was suddenly filled with regret. ’Why did I bring my men here?’

’Weren’t we just delivering ourselves to the slaughter?’

The instant he shattered the earthen defense, Lu Feng used his speed ability again, appearing before Li Lin in a flash.

Even though Li Lin retreated with all his might, and even as his Mutant Beasts charged forward in a frenzy, he couldn’t escape Lu Feng’s attack. In a single motion, Lu Feng’s hand closed around his neck.

In that instant, he felt Death’s cold embrace.

"Sp... spare me! I’ll submit to you..." Li Lin pleaded, his face a mask of terror. "I’m a Summoning Beast Ability User! I can be very powerful for you!"

He didn’t want to die. He had just barely managed to unlock his second-stage ability.

"Sorry, a Summoning Beast ability is great. That’s why I’d rather see if you drop it," Lu Feng said with a mocking smile.

Li Lin was clearly stunned by these words, not understanding their meaning at all.

’Drop it? What does that mean?’

In the brief moment of his confusion, Lu Feng brutally snapped his neck.

The man who, in the future, would have helped the Li Family rise to become the most powerful faction, died right here, right now.

With Li Lin’s death, the Mutant Beasts abruptly stopped their attacks, a hint of confusion appearing in their eyes.

Then, they decisively turned and fled the scene.

This sight made Li Sheng’s expression impossibly grim.

Meanwhile, Lu Feng’s face was filled with delight as he watched two orbs of light emerge from Li Lin’s corpse.
