Chapter 316: Chapter 254: The Fall of the Giant Ship (Third update, asking for monthly pass)

And there, appearing and disappearing in the dark, thunderous clouds were the colossal forms of the Demon Divine Beasts, Oureboste and Xutedela. Their roars echoed like claps of thunder. At this moment, Oureboste seemed to have the upper hand as Xutedela’s cry had a touch of a dismal and hoarse wail.

"Ada, are you okay?" Su Yu gently inhaled a few times and hopped off Ada’s back. They were surrounded by large piles of rocks. The Dark Giant Ship was obliquely buried in the ground, leaving behind a terrifyingly bottomless and dark crevice. The scene around them was one of disorder.

"I...I’m okay..." Ada slowly and weakly responded. His enormous form shrank back down. Suddenly, feeling a sense of unease, Su Yu looked up. He had a vague feeling that something was drawing near. His heart pounded with dread as he quickly lifted his left wrist.

On the device on his left wrist, over twenty red dots were moving. Judging by the direction of their movement, it seemed that they were all converging towards him. The red dot that was the closest had already reached the blue dot that represented him.

"What’s happening? It seems like all the teams are headed this way? Were they attracted by this great battle?" Su Yu was perplexed. He didn’t know that apart from him, the twenty-three surviving teams had all received the same mission: to kill Xiao Nan. The team that accomplished this would be declared the victor and rewarded with the "Divine Source".

The horrifying developments here had already left the rest of the teams in shock, but the strong who had entered this place knew the importance of the "Divine Source" to their survival. Everyone was fearless, there was no room for retreat, and it was useless to retreat; according to the mission briefing, if they did not kill Xiao Nan today, they would all be wiped out.

Almost every team member was riding their respective Category 5 Lifeforms and moving swiftly towards Su Yu and Xiao Nan. The nearest and fastest team had finally arrived.

Su Yu felt something was amiss and was startled to realize there was an additional red dot next to his own on the device on his left wrist. Unaware of the change in mission, he saw the sudden appearance of this red dot and was naturally surprised. He immediately signaled to Ada and silently charged out.

With a leap, Ada landed on Su Yu’s shoulder. Su Yu clung to a huge boulder and ascended. Then he saw a shadow soaring towards them from not too far away.

The shadow constantly glanced at the device on his wrist. Of course, he also noticed the red dot representing Su Yu. However, he assumed that besides himself, other team members were also rushing over. His focus was on the dark dot that represented Xiao Nan, which represented their target for this mission. Su Yu was the only one among the teams whose device did not symbolize this dark dot, suggesting he had not received this message.

The dark dot represented Xiao Nan.

Looking at the dark dot and noticing another red dot approaching quickly, the shadow got anxious, afraid that other teams would get there first. He hurried and sped up.

Xiao Nan was looking up into the sky, trying hard to see the situation in the stars, while Su Yu was hidden among some towering rocks on the side, watching from above. He watched as the dark figure jumped over piles of rocks and broken walls. Judging by the figure’s hurry, Su Yu realized he was darting not towards him, but Xiao Nan, who was not too far away.

"What’s going on?" Su Yu frowned, looking at his left wrist. The other red dots on the device were moving slowly, everyone was gathering at the central point. The central point represented by the device was precisely where he and Xiao Nan were standing.

Normally, the mission should last seven days, it was only the third day now. There was no way such a situation should have occurred. Even if they wanted to see the battle in the sky, they could see it from afar. Why were they all rushing towards the center with no fear for their lives?

Realizing that something was off, Su Yu quietly entered the state of "Lizard Beast Transformation." With his "Perception Eye," he noticed that the oncoming shadow was just a Level Five Black Iron Warrior.

Realizing it was not a Sixth-order creature, Su Yu was secretly relieved. His right hand revealed the Golden Claw as he waited, poised for the dark figure to pounce on Xiao Nan. Finally, Su Yu moved with silence and subtlety.

The dark figure noticed Su Yu, but the mission had unexpectedly changed. The only goal now was to kill Xiao Nan, saving the miniature teams from having to fight each other. The figure misinterpreted Su Yu as another team hurrying to the scene, thinking they were in a race to kill Xiao Nan.

Afterall, whoever killed Xiao Nan would be rewarded with Divine Source.

Su Yu launched himself off the rocky surface, and as the dark figure continued to believe Su Yu was attempting to kill Xiao Nan, he did not realize his mistake until Su Yu was almost directly above him. Looking up, he saw Su Yu’s Golden Claw carving a perfect arc mid-air before it mercilessly struck his chest.

With a dull thud, the horrifying power of the Golden Claw punctured his body in an instant. The figure opened his eyes wide in disbelief, screaming, "Why... are you... killing me? She is... the..."

Before he could finish, Su Yu’s Golden Claw continued its downward path. Su Yu squatting down, the Golden Claw drove deeper, splitting him from his chest down to the ground.

This man’s eyes were wide open, his face frozen in a death stare as he collapsed. A great deal of blood and visceral gushed out of his body, creating a pool on the ground.

"Su Yu, something seems off." Ada, perched on Su Yu’s shoulder, mumbled anxiously.

With this man’s death, the glow point on Su Yu’s wrist display decreased to 23. The screen showed two red light points approaching, indicating that two more teams were coming, just moments behind the man Su Yu had just killed.

"Xiao Nan, come with me now." Su Yu murmured, not waiting for her reaction before he dragged her towards the gargantuan monolith, the Dark Giant Ship.

Although Su Yu did not know of the sudden mission change at first, seeing the movements of these red light spots made him feel a sense of urgency. It seemed like they were all targeting either Xiao Nan or himself. With threats coming from all directions, the only way out appeared to be the Dark Giant Ship. The interior of the Dark Giant Ship was not only robust but also complex, which might buy them some time to hide. Once Xingyu made his escape, it wouldn’t matter how many teams were coming, they wouldn’t stand a chance.

"Xiao Nan, move now. Someone is trying to kill you!" After considering the man’s earlier actions and his final words, Su Yu had a hunch and couldn’t help yelling. Xiao Nan, who was staring blankly at the sky, was startled and retorted, "Why?"

"I don’t know, maybe they’re trying to provoke Xingyu by hurting you. No matter what, you have to survive for Xingyu’s sake. Quick, climb onto the ship, find a place to hide..." Before he finished, a figure appeared about a hundred meters to the left, while two more emerged several kilometers behind.

With increasing danger, Su Yu grabbed Xiao Nan’s arm and suddenly threw her up. With a yelp, Xiao Nan flew up and landed on the angled deck of the Dark Giant Ship jutting out of the ground.

"Quick, hide—" Just as Su Yu said this, the figure that was a hundred meters away on the left had closed the gap to several meters. The figure summoned a Ghost Claw out of nowhere and lunged at Xiao Nan.

Without a word, Su Yu released a Tearing Storm with his left arm.(To be continued... For the next part of the story, please visit www.qidian.com. For more Chapters, please support the author and legal reading!)
