Chapter 559: 431

All sorts of frenzied attacks, in conjunction with the "Starry Blade", made for an internal and external onslaught, with the scene becoming chaotic to the extreme. The three-eyed human let out a hoarse scream. Su Yu, holding the Starry Blade in his hand, his right hand entirely mutated into a Golden Claw, roared. At last, he exerted all his strength to drag and pull, and with a "chipping" sound, the power of the Starry Blade combined with his full-force pull actually split the body of the three-eyed human from the chest down, entirely in two.

The armor exterior of the three-eyed human, taking the shape of a hunting leopard, continuously contracted and disappeared. The three eyes bulged to their maximum, and blood oozed continuously from the vertical eye between his eyebrows. He glared at Su Yu in front of him, and gargled as if trying to say something. Finally, with a "thud", he heavily fell to the ground, instantaneously dead.

Upon seeing the three-eyed human fall dead, Su Yu finally let out a breath. Holding Ma Ziye’s Starry Blade, he staggered back two steps, panting. Only at this moment did he feel a weakness throughout his body, barely able to support himself.

The others, seeing the body of the demonic-like three-eyed human fall, had faces as pale as Su Yu’s, either sitting or leaning, barely able to support their own bodies. Everyone was covered in cold sweat and felt weak in their limbs.

The recent life-and-death struggle had taken only a few breaths of time, but the resulting thrills had almost been a first since leaving the Heavenly Pit Forest. It was the first time that everyone had cooperated, giving their all to the point of losing themselves. Even Li Dong, who was the most afraid of dying, had put forth everything he had, although his duplicate had managed to stay far away from the action.

Su Yu slowly drew in a breath, and handed the Starry Blade back to Ma Ziye. He then felt a message coming from the instrument on his left wrist. He noticed a line of numbers displayed on it, indicating that the first mission was complete. The two words "Very Good" following, which seemed to suggest his performance.

Ma Ziye also had the word "Very Good" displayed on her device, Zhang Zhongmou’s was "Acceptable", Su Yun realised his was "Poor", while Lei Rui’s was "Very Poor". Almost everyone’s instrument displayed "First mission completed", but the comments about their performance varied greatly.

During this battle, Li Jingqi from their group had been killed, and several others were injured. Among them, Zhang Chen and Li Shengli, who had a deep relationship with Li Jingqi, felt a deep sorrow at the sight of their companion’s body being twisted and killed by the three-eyed monster. This left everyone feeling gloomy and bitter.

After a moment of silence, Zhang Chen and Li Shengli jointly dug a pit and buried Li Jingqi there. In this world, there was nothing more they could do. Perhaps, the only thing they could do was to bury the dead, so their bodies wouldn’t be left exposed.

Less than four hours after entering this world, the team had already suffered casualties. As everyone was sunk into a gloomy mood, Zhang Zhongmou groped around the dead three-eyed human’s body, hoping to find something, while Su Yu asked Ada: "Was this guy a Black Iron Warrior as well? Was he a human too?"

Ada slowly said: "He should be a trialist from another world. His strength is roughly equivalent to an eighth stage Black Iron Warrior. I think this trial is probably a combined effort of several worlds. I am afraid that the tasks will keep changing and getting tougher."

Lei Rui asked: "He’s a Black Iron Warrior from another world? So, is there more than one Black Iron World?"

"There is only one Black Iron World, however, there is not only one world equivalent to yours. However, those worlds are not called Black Iron World, they have different names, different evolutionary directions, and processes. This three-eyed human’s strength is comparable to an eighth stage Black Iron Warrior in the Black Iron World, but I don’t think he was a Black Iron Warrior. He probably took a different evolutionary path. The world he came from also won’t be called Black Iron World. Although... the level of that world should be similar to the Black Iron World."

Ada’s explanation made everyone gasp slightly. Her meaning was quite clear. Obviously, in addition to the Black Iron World, there are other places similar to it. They only have different names, and the evolutionary directions and methods of the creatures in them are also different. No wonder the combat methods of the three-eyed human seemed somewhat different from theirs. But the humanoid leopard transformed by the opponent did indeed resemble a Black Iron Warrior.

Zhang Zhongmou spat and exclaimed, "This fellow is penniless, he doesn’t have anything on him." Unable to resist, he swung a kick that sent the three-eyed human’s corpse flying.

By now, Zhang Chen and others had already buried Li Jingqi’s body. Everyone paused briefly before the third wave of Giant Hand and Foot attacked again, forcing everyone to flee the building.

After leaving the building, they sprinted in the direction Ada had pointed out. At this point, they realized that there must be a large number of trial participants this time and that they were even encountering participants from other worlds. It seemed that encountering other participants would immediately trigger a task, turning both parties into enemies. They must kill their opponent. If they fail, they would face death as punishment. Undeniably, this rule was harsh.

After they crossed two streets, they soon encountered a chaotic battle on a broad road ahead.

On one side was a small squad of nearly twenty people, while on the other were only two individuals. Yet these two were dominating the squad of twenty. In the blink of an eye, at least five of the twenty-person squad had been killed on the spot.

From afar, Su Yu and the others immediately noticed that the two terrifyingly powerful individuals were, once again, three-eyed evolvers from another world. The slain twenty-member squad was obviously Black Iron Warriors like them.

Just as they observed the brutal clash between the two sides, notification messages appeared on everyone’s wrist devices. The second task had appeared, but this time the mission objective had changed to killing the two three-eyed humans.

Almost instinctively unified with the same hatred, everyone knew what the content of this task was without even checking their devices.

Carrying their roars, Su Yu and the others charged forward.

Other than Su Yu and Zhang Zhongmou, Qin Jiagui surprisingly charged in third. His Double Shoulder Cannon Tower made a "whoosh" sound as two shells were fired.

Always wary of risks, Qin Jiagui had never willingly put himself in danger. However, what happened to Yuan Niping had severely shaken him. He suddenly realized that in this world, if you are always retreating and fearing death, you will stagnate, your evolution will slow, and without a powerful force, how could you protect the one you love?

If he had a force as powerful as Su Yu’s back then, how could Yuan Niping have been captured? All this was due to his lack of courage all this while. If he had the courage to face death like Su Yu, perhaps the tragedies back then wouldn’t have happened.

Stimulated to his limits, Qin Jiagui summoned the courage to face the threat of death for the first time. His endless guilt, self-blame, and regret had turned into seething anger. All he wanted to was vent out. His Gasification Mysterious Power was bubbling inside him, his whole body was slightly feverish. This peculiar state allowed his "Double Shoulder Cannon Tower" to fire without any time interval for the second time. Such a bizarre feverish state had never even happened to Su Yu.

"Ah——" Qin Jiagui suddenly roared, the upper half of his body completely encased in metal. The metallic skin began to emit a red glow as it heated up - going from black to a glowing hot iron red. Exposed to the air outside his body, it emitted a "sizzling" sound. (To be continued. If you want to know what happens next, please visit www.qidian.com.
