Chapter 690: Chapter 400 Crisis Arrives_3

And to annihilate such a monster, Rod had to strike first, delivering a complete combo of moves in order to possibly kill it in a short time.

That was still under the condition of having a "Soul Blast," as long as a Spiritual Energy flaw was struck, it could be killed.

If it were another Second Level combatant, the battle would be even longer, needing to deplete its Spiritual Energy completely to accomplish the kill.

Rod felt contemplative.

No wonder Theodore had specifically requested Rod to hand over that Relic to Kashan—it was a Soul Trait inherited from the Kasan family’s ancestors, and upon fusion with Kashan’s soul, it had activated this miraculous Fire Spark.

With this Fire Spark, Kashan became the only person in the team, aside from Rod, who could create output damage.

Her presence greatly saved Rod’s consumption of Spiritual Energy; even though his Spiritual Energy recovery rate was fast, he couldn’t handle it under such high battle intensity.

However, as the battle progressed, Rod noticed something odd in the way Kashan looked at him; several times after hammering a monster to death, she seemed eager to jump in and throw a couple of punches at him.

Her little pink fists were not something he could withstand.

Rod carefully maintained his distance from her, and though Kashan strove hard to remain lucid, her mood after rage was not that easily restored.

If he wasn’t careful, he could get beaten up for being a jerk.

Thus, during the initial stages of the war outbreak, Rod relatively easily killed all invading monsters.

He didn’t know if it was because their teamwork was too in sync, but the pressure he felt was far less than he had anticipated, and he even had spare time to support others.

But soon, Rod felt that something was off when, seemingly out of nowhere, the monsters’ strength soared drastically, and the pressure increased rapidly.

Once the monsters’ Spiritual Energy broke through level 12, he was somewhat overwhelmed.

At this time, the strength of a monster’s casual strike exceeded his Spiritual Defense limit, meaning he could only rely on dodging to evade the attacks, unable to take them head-on.

And the monsters’ Spiritual Defenses also greatly strengthened, making it difficult to create openings.

The battle became tough, and Rod had to change tactics, constantly bombarding the monsters head-on with the Star Shuttle while Anna carried Kashan on her back, waiting for the chance to launch sneak attacks.

Under the dual effects of paralysis and freezing, the monsters could not catch up with Rod, and would suddenly get backstabbed by the assassin.

With this, Kashan’s heavy punches turned into the main offensive force of the team, and as long as she performed normally, a few punches down would create a huge Soul Hole, which Rod would then finish off in one move.

This kind of battle was something he had never imagined; Kashan’s heavy punches weren’t only immensely powerful, their Spiritual Energy consumption was very low, tremendously saving his Spiritual Energy consumption and enhancing their combat efficiency.

"Kashan, you truly are my best partner," Rod said.

Kashan was filled with immense joy, her blood boiling within her, her ears throbbing with pounding beats; it was the first time she experienced such passion, and she couldn’t help asking, "Really?"

"Of course, I’m lying to you, idiot, moron, retard, short flat-chested ugly girl, don’t flatter yourself."

"Aaahhhhh!"

A crimson aura surged towards the sky as Kashan instinctively threw a punch.

Bang!

With a loud noise, a werewolf was directly pierced through, a big hole blasted out of its chest; it wobbled and then fell to the ground, black dust billowing into the air, and a wisp of grey aura flew towards them.

[Great Soul]

Rod couldn’t stop smiling.

"Kashan, you’re the best indeed, and you have so much potential to grow!" he exclaimed.

Kashan glared at him, gritting her teeth, "Rod! You’ve gone too far!"

Rod was about to reply when suddenly, a Spirit Crow Messenger sped forth, unfolding before his eyes, silver light twisting downwards, forming rows of script.

"Crisis! Current mission aborted, special mission initiated, assemble immediately at the Seventh Station!"
