Reincarnation Paradise Park
Chapter 174 - 33: Mist

Chapter 174: Chapter 33: Mist

Checking the remaining Mana Value, there are still over 200 points, enough to support this battle.

Yesterday, while guarding the entrance to Zone 3, his Talent Ability ’Soul Eater’ had already reached its limit, gaining a total of 100 Mana, so he now has 403 Mana points.

What does 403 Mana points mean? If you exclude equipment bonuses, it would require 40 Intelligence Attribute to reach.

Although Su Xiao has a lot of Mana, the Shadow of Annihilation Law is also a drain on Mana.

This is a profession chosen by the Reincarnation Paradise that suits him best, making no waste of his Talent Ability. With his identity as a Hunter, inheriting the Shadow of Annihilation Law was a given.

Ignoring the emerging sense of weakness within his body for the time being, Su Xiao quickly charged towards Cold Moon.

Cold Moon was already on the brink of death; Su Xiao needed to eliminate this future trouble first.

But before Su Xiao took two steps forward, a barrage of bullets and Skills forced him to retreat.

"Leader, leader, how are you?"

Blood Rose, with reddened eyes, rushed in front of Cold Moon. Her hand trembled upon touching Cold Moon’s body.

At this moment, Cold Moon’s body was slightly trembling, the pain from Blue Steel Shadow had not receded.

Blood Rose picked up Cold Moon and quickly ran into the crowd of Other Shore Flower, where the women of Other Shore Flower spontaneously protected Cold Moon.

"Candy, quickly help the leader with the Healing."

Candy nodded and cast several Skills on Cold Moon.

An emerald green light enveloped Cold Moon, attaching itself to the wound on Cold Moon’s chest, which was several dozen centimeters long.

Then something unexpected happened to both Candy and Blood Rose: a kind of light blue energy suddenly surged from within Cold Moon, so ferocious that upon merging with the emerald green light, the green light dispersed completely.

Unconvinced, Candy used two more Recovery Skills, but the results were the same.

"The Healing Skill... doesn’t work."

Candy stood dumbfounded, while Cold Moon continued to bleed. In less than two minutes, Cold Moon would die.

And that wasn’t the worst part; not far away, Su Xiao was already approaching with his blade raised.

The scene of a tiger entering a flock of sheep reoccurred as Su Xiao charged into the crowd of Other Shore Flower and quickly slaughtered its members.

Blood splattered, and screams formed a continuous wail.

Killing one person every ten steps? No, it was killing ten people with each step.

In just a few seconds, Su Xiao carved a bloody path through the crowd of Other Shore Flower, now only six meters from Cold Moon and Blood Rose. As the battle raged on, Other Shore Flower had already lost fifteen members.

Five meters away, Other Shore Flower had lost a total of twenty members.

Four meters away, Other Shore Flower had lost a total of twenty-seven members.

Three meters away, Other Shore Flower had lost a total of thirty members.

When more than half had been killed or injured, the members of Other Shore Flower began to break and flee.

"You bastard!"

A ponytailed female Contractor recklessly charged at Su Xiao. He immediately dropped all others to face her; she was a Violator within the Other Shore Flower Adventure Group.

As the ponytailed female Contractor charged forward, black smoke emerged from her body, giving an ominous aura.

Any Contractor who touched the black smoke had their skin shrivel instantly. Seeing this, the Black Fog Woman quickly withdrew the smoke.

"Cold Moon, thank you for accepting and taking care of someone like me, an outlier. Thank you, thank you, thank you."

By this time, the Black Fog Woman’s human appearance was no longer discernible; her entire body was enveloped in black fog, only a vague human shape visible. But those blood-red eyes, demonic vertical pupils, stood out starkly.

"What is this~ creature?"

Blood Rose stared dazedly at the Black Fog Woman, unaware that such a Contractor existed in the group.

"Don’t go."

In a dying state, Cold Moon mumbled a sound; Blood Rose nearby didn’t hear it, but the Black Fog Woman farther away did.

"No, you can’t handle him."

The Black Fog Woman shook her head. While her expression wasn’t visible, Su Xiao felt she was smiling.

"I shouldn’t have joined you. An outlier like me only brings disaster to others, though being with the sisters was truly joyous."

The Black Fog Woman turned to look at the women of Other Shore Flower, her eyes filled with longing.

Suddenly, she stared directly at Su Xiao, open hatred in her eyes.

"You blood-soaked killers, what did I do wrong?"

Halfway through her words, the Black Fog Woman’s voice suddenly vanished, though her mouth continued to open and close.

"Hmm? Interesting, seems you know something."

Su Xiao sensed she might have recognized his identity as a Hunter; he had to eliminate her quickly. If his identity as a Hunter were exposed, he’d be targeted in every Derivative World henceforth.

The Black Fog Woman’s mouth continued moving for a long time, still no sound emerging.

"Damn it, I don’t even have the right to speak."

She stamped her foot, creating a shallow pit on the ground beneath her.

"Don’t you have anything to say to me, you ’chosen one’ of the Reincarnation Paradise?"

The Black Fog Woman looked at Su Xiao with mockery.

"..."

Su Xiao simply gazed silently at the Black Fog Woman; some secrets were concealed by the Reincarnation Paradise. He’s still too weak, knowing too much is not beneficial at this point.

For someone not strong yet always seeking truth, in Su Xiao’s view, that was a way to die flamboyantly.

As for what she called the ’chosen one’ of Reincarnation Paradise, it was utter nonsense. A Hunter endures risks several dozen times that of an ordinary Contractor. While there are some privileges in Reincarnation Paradise, they are treated the same once in Derivative Worlds.

A task is issued with a number and then it’s a harrowing search across the world. Upon finding the target, discovering how strong they are—this is the ’chosen one’s’ treatment? Absolutely not.

"Such a cold-hearted guy, but it’s only normal, ordinary people..."

The Black Fog Woman’s words got cut off again, judging by her gritted teeth expression, she was undoubtedly cursing.

"Forget it, let’s settle this, life or death."

She said and then charged at Su Xiao. Her speed wasn’t fast, but her steps were exceptionally heavy; her Power Attribute must be terrifying.

Su Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at the Black Fog Woman.

She lunged in front of Su Xiao, throwing a punch at his head, her fist wrapped in black mist creating a gust of wind.

Su Xiao tilted his head to dodge, immediately feeling a numbing sensation on his cheek.

Whoosh~.

The violent gust tousled Su Xiao’s black hair, leaving a bloody streak on his cheek.

Being hit by this punch would result in a direct Headshot!

Su Xiao sidestepped as a sniper bullet embedded itself in the ground beneath his feet.

Raising his long knife, the blade cut through the Black Fog Woman’s body, lacking the sensation of contact with something solid.

"Hmph."

The Black Fog Woman grunted, the black smoke around her surging.

"So you can hurt me, damn it."

She quickly stepped back a few paces; Su Xiao was about to follow when he sensed several bullets coming his way.

Bam, bam, bam...

Su Xiao dodged several bullets, leaving a trail of blood in their path.

"There’s only one way out now."

The Black Fog Woman held her arms in front of her, the black smoke on her body spreading out, twisting and deforming in the air, quickly approaching Su Xiao.

Su Xiao retreated once more, but a small bit of black smoke tainted his shoulder.

Sizzling sounds.

His skin withered instantly upon contact with the black smoke, and the decay showed signs of spreading along his arm.

He swung his knife to slice off a piece of flesh from his shoulder, which disintegrated into dust in the air.

Su Xiao glanced at the wound on his shoulder; though he lost a small piece of flesh, the internal muscles were unharmed, just a superficial wound.

The black smoke surged, and the Black Fog Woman’s figure reemerged.

It seemed fully transforming into black mist was a huge strain on her, as she gasped heavily.

"It really doesn’t work, damn monster."

A determined look flashed in the Black Fog Woman’s vertical pupils.
