Apocalypse: My Apartment Has Traits - Chapter 197 - 167: First Move
Chapter 197: Chapter 167: First Move
Who could have imagined that the Wilderness Lord, who initially seemed like a nightmare to the Su Family, now has become like a package of experiences!
The Su Family and Wuyin Village have indeed made a fortune off these Lords!
A full twenty pieces of Treasure Meat!
And they have annexed several villages without shedding a drop of blood!
Su Lin walks toward the solidified black tide fossil, draws the Slaughter Saber, and skillfully cuts open a line on the fossil’s surface.
A sudden burst of white light flashes, and four fragrant Tier One Treasure Meat appear.
Zhao Yaxin and two other women immediately step forward, swiftly wrapping them up with red cloth.
Su Can, sitting cross-legged on the ground nearby, scratches his back helplessly and speaks in a muffled voice:
“Is this the last run, and we still have to wait for another few dozen minutes before heading out?”
Even though hunting a Lord takes only ten minutes, a lot of time is spent traveling and waiting, leaving the impatient elder repeating it several times and already tired of it.
Su Lin laughs helplessly:
“Well, this time let’s go a little earlier, just wait for about ten minutes.”
“Alright…” Su Can was about to sigh in agreement, but his words were abruptly cut off!
In the next moment, his calloused hand flashes like lightning, grabbing the Giant Sword by his side!
Su Lin also narrows his eyes, his palm immediately pressing on the hilt of the saber behind him!
“Your perception is rather sharp.”
From deep within the thick fog, two figures step out silently, a man and a woman.
The man is built like a tower, holding a large two-meter spear shimmering in cold light.
The woman’s figure is alluring, her tight leather armor accentuating full curves, and a door-like Giant Sword similar to Su Can’s rests on her back, adding a wild and fierce air.
Are there outsiders in the deep inner circle of the wilderness?!
Su Lin’s pupils shrink, his dark irises suddenly flashing with mystic light, activating his “Observation” skill!
In his vision, the other two’s Qi and Blood surge like raging waves, with oppressive pressure rapidly enveloping his entire body.
Simultaneously, he notices the faint glow of the “Observation” skill in their eyes!
Martial Artists from a Town-level Camp!
Su Lin’s heart instantly leaps to his throat.
The leather-armored woman approaches, her gaze first attracted to Su Lin’s handsome features, her eyes brightening suddenly.
However, as her peripheral vision catches Zhao Yaxin, Su Tongxi, and Song Yiyi, her face suddenly changes, a trace of jealousy flickering in her eyes.
The man overlooks everyone, his sharp gaze directly targeting the remnants of Wandering Giants that had not fully dissipated.
“Are you from the village-level camp in this wilderness? Did you handle this?” he asks in a deep voice, a tone of scrutiny.
Su Lin’s mind races, choosing his words carefully:
“Esteemed envoys, we are from nearby Wuyin Village, commissioned by the corresponding Quanzhou Village in this area to hunt Lords for them.”
Su Can silently grips the sword hilt, leaving the negotiation entirely up to his grandson.
Upon hearing this, the spear-wielding man suddenly turns his gaze to Su Can, staring fixedly at him for a moment.
His eyes obscure and ambiguous, yet instinctively makes the battle-hardened elder sense danger, tightening his nerves!
Su Lin frowns deeply, quickly retrieves the wooden token given by Mengyi from his pocket:
“Esteemed envoys, Wuyin Village has already qualified for promotion to Zhoushan Town, now considered part of Zhoushan Town. It remains to be…”
Before the words can be completed—
A rush of ice-cold killing intent stabs deeply into Su Lin’s heart without warning!
“…in communication?” Su Lin suppresses his palpitations and finishes.
The spear-wielding man beams a smile:
“Oh? You all have been promoted to Zhoushan Town? Congratulations indeed. In that case, we shall not disturb you further.”
His tone is smooth, showing no signs of variance.
The giant sword woman looks at him in surprise, unwillingly tugs on his sleeve, but is subtly brushed away by Luo Jinzhou.
He nods slightly at Su Can, decisively turns to leave. The woman reluctantly follows.
Coming and going like the wind, peculiarly unsettling.
However, the uneasy feeling within Su Lin’s heart grows rampantly like poisonous vines!
Wrong!
These two are definitely not right!
The icy killing intent that flashed earlier was definitely not an illusion!
Moreover…
It hasn’t dissipated!
Su Lin’s expression shifts.
A moment.
“Grandfather!”
With his eyes suddenly flashing with cold light, he calls out quietly, as simultaneously, his “Divine Speed” activates fiercely within!
Although the opponent was a First Transformation Martial Artist, his Qi and Blood intensity wasn’t much different from Grandpa’s.
As long as he didn’t expose his strength, in their group there was only Grandpa as the openly known First Transformation Martial Artist, who would think they did it afterwards?!
…
Almost simultaneously with Su Lin’s actions.
A man and a woman had just walked not far away.
“Luo Jinzhou! Why are you leaving?” The giant sword-wielding woman in leather armor glared with fury, her voice sharp and questioning, “Those few brazen vixens, just looking at them makes me want to peel their skin off and make it into material for my new clothes!”
Luo Jinzhou’s eyes were calm as he spoke in a low voice:
“What’s the rush? That person is bringing along four hangers-on but was able to take down four Wandering Giants in a very short time and even left four corpses behind. Isn’t that suspicious? Shouldn’t we first observe clearly? Besides, are the people from Zhoushan Town ambushing nearby…”
Before the words were finished—
Boom!!!
A figure carrying the force of wind and thunder tore through the thick fog, a flash of a saber appearing like a startled swan, slashing directly at Luo Jinzhou’s face!
Clang—!!!
The deafening explosion of metal echoed! The giant sword-wielding woman turned her head in horror, seeing Luo Jinzhou let out a muffled grunt, hastily raising his spear to block.
The gigantic force contained in that suddenly slashing Long Saber far exceeded his expectations, causing the spear to violently tremble, painfully numbing Luo Jinzhou’s arms, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth!
“Luo Jinzhou!” The giant sword-wielding woman cried out, the attacker’s speed was too fast, she couldn’t even see the figure clearly!
In an instant, the saber’s light rose again!
Clang clang clang—!!!
The clash of metal resounded through the wilderness like a storm! Sparks flew wildly through the gray mist!
Luo Jinzhou gritted his teeth, brandishing his spear into a blur, strenuously fending off the relentless attacks coming from all directions like a torrential downpour.
The opponent’s speed was too fast, leaving Luo Jinzhou struggling to defend.
At the same time, a mighty Qi and Blood formed into an unrivaled giant Sword Qi, slicing through the air, crashing towards the giant sword-wielding woman!
Crash—!!!
The giant sword-wielding woman hastily drew her sword to meet the attack, two violent forces collided fiercely, causing waves of air to scatter!
“It’s you?!” Seeing it was Su Can, the giant sword-wielding woman was completely stunned.
Luo Jinzhou, from the corner of his eye, saw Su Can join the battle. A towering rage surged forth from being provoked by an ant, overtaking his rationality. He roared like a beast:
“You village-level trash! How dare you strike at us?!!”
Shing—!!!
The response was an incredibly swift electric flash!
Su Lin’s Bamboo Pole Blade, encircled with violent lightning arcs, struck precisely and ruthlessly at Luo Jinzhou’s heart!
The timing was grasped with unparalleled precision!
Precisely when Luo Jinzhou was distracted by rage, when his old strength was spent and new strength hadn’t arisen!
Fast!
Too fast!!
The deadly warning caused Luo Jinzhou’s hair to stand on end, his blood almost freezing!
Raising his spear to block was already too late!
“Ha—!”
At the threshold of life and death, Luo Jinzhou suddenly rooted himself, his eyes bulging, teeth clenched tightly, his bare gums red and ferocious, a roar squeezed from his throat like a caged beast!
Clang—!!!
A tooth-numbing sound, like metal striking rock, resounded! The blade aiming for the heart seemed to hit an indestructible barrier?! It was stopped cold!
Su Lin’s pupils constricted abruptly!
How was it possible?!
“A Tendon Lock???” Luo Jinzhou finally saw Su Lin’s face and recognized him, utterly incredulous.
His face contorted with rage and humiliation, his voice raspy like sandpaper scraping:
“A trash Tendon Lock from a trash village!!! Who the hell gave you the audacity to strike at me?!!”
In a fury, Qi and Blood from Luo Jinzhou erupted with a roar, instantly enveloping the spear!
The spear spun rapidly in his palm, a piercing whistle as it cut through the air, a violent small tornado abruptly swirling up at the spearhead, savagely stabbing out!
Su Lin’s eyes were cold as ice, giving a slight snort, his figure vanished from the original spot the moment the tornado approached!
The Bamboo Pole Blade, carrying a shadow of wind and thunder, sliced oddly towards Luo Jinzhou’s arm from another cunning angle!
Tap Dance, 97%.
Clang—!!!
The same dull and eerie impact sounded once more!
The blade hacked onto Luo Jinzhou’s arm, seeming to cut into some kind of inhuman, hard material!
