On the steps stood the burly Minotaur blocking the way, and behind him surged the endless Army of Corpses.
Considering that the Minotaur couldn’t be dealt with in a short time,
The members of the Cangyou Wildcat Team, in order to avoid being caught between the Army of Corpses at the top of the steps and those behind, had no choice but to retreat while fighting defensively, gradually moving away from the steps.
Fortunately, with Big Mountain as the tank in the front, Brother Jianghu Hao’s clone maintaining the formation, Lin Xue the Blood Princess swinging the Blood-colored Blade with wide, powerful arcs, An Xiaoling firing cold arrows nonstop, and Wei Mian constantly disrupting the attacking corpses’ consciousness—with the skilled cooperation of the Cangyou Wildcat Team, the Army of Corpses couldn’t harm them for the time being.
Instead, as time ticked by,
With fewer and fewer corpse monsters being cleared out, it seemed like things were starting to improve, and they would be able to survive the Tide of Corpses.
Just as hope was beginning to rise in their hearts,
The situation changed in an instant.
Pupupupu~
Just like glass or porcelain shattering on the floor.
The enormous Monster Statue in the center of the hall began to shed scales piece by piece all over its body.
After all the scales had fallen away,
A jet-black monster broke free from the remains of the Monster Statue.
It stood proudly atop the high platform, a pair of massive vertical pupils sweeping over Su Qi and the others.
Upon seeing this monster, it took Su Qi only a second to recognize it as the one from the Old Clan Leader’s memory, the one that organized so many monsters to exhaust the heroes.
And right as Su Qi stared in shock,
The next moment, this terrifying non-human creature suddenly opened its greasy maw and spoke human words.
“Kekekeke, after sleeping for so long, I’ve finally found a few decent prey again. Tsk tsk tsk… Although you humans are a bit small, I feel you must taste quite good. To become the nourishment for me, Hollmond, this is your fortune. You should feel honored.”
Hearing this monster, calling itself “Hollmond,” speak of nourishment, combined with its earlier behavior of hiding within the statue,
As the only observer who hadn’t fought in the Cangyou Wildcat Team,
At this moment, Su Qi’s thoughts raced. Combining the Old Clan Leader’s memories, he quickly sorted out some clues.
Judging by the current situation, perhaps after the “Old Clan Leader” exhausted the hero, the hero seriously injured Hollmond, which was why it hid itself within the statue.
And as for those corpses just now, they seemed to have been like the current Cangyou Wildcat Team—prey that walked right into the trap.
With these details deduced, Su Qi almost wanted to cry.
Emmmmmmmmm, this was clearly his first adventure as a newbie—how did he end up in such a mess!
But amidst his frustration, seeing the Army of Corpses that had been knocked down on the ground begin to reassemble with the appearance of Hollmond,
And noticing that although this lord-level monster looked overwhelmingly powerful and didn’t seem to take their group seriously,
It still hadn’t taken the initiative to come closer to them.
Forcing himself to calm down, Su Qi quickly deduced another piece of good news.
It seemed that the monster called Hollmond wasn’t as strong as it appeared. Its only real means was commanding corpses, acting much like a fox borrowing the power of a tiger.
From this perspective, rather than being whittled down by the corpses,
Perhaps they could try to capture the ringleader first?
As this idea surfaced in Su Qi’s mind, the next moment, his gaze fell on Lin Xue.
After all, Lin Xue was the main force of the Cangyou Wildcat Team, and with her agile wings, she could fly.
No matter how you looked at it, the only one who could slay Hollmond was her.
But as Su Qi looked over at Lin Xue, he noticed that the senior who had been fighting hard was already sweating on her forehead, and her delicate skin was covered with wounds.
She was clearly on the verge of exhaustion, in a terrible state—she needed to replenish her energy.
Replenish energy?
With this thought, a glint flashed in Su Qi’s peach blossom eyes.
Right! His own blood, for the Blood Princess Lin Xue, was a natural packed meal, a natural energy source.
But then, thinking of the feeling when Lin Xue sucked his blood—that tingling, electrifying sensation all over his body and the involuntary moan that slipped through his teeth—
Just imagining that strange feeling made Su Qi a bit embarrassed.
Still, desperate times called for desperate measures.
When it came to life versus embarrassment, Su Qi knew which was more important.
The next second, after clenching his small fist, Su Qi gently slipped down the left side of his knit sweater, revealing a swan-like neck and a glimpse of fragrant shoulder, and called out to Lin Xue.
“Lin… Lin-senpai, come over and replenish your energy first. I have something to tell you.”
Lin Xue, already on the brink of exhaustion facing the corpses, heard Su Qi’s call from behind.
She originally wanted to scold Su Qi for falling back, but when her gaze fell on Su Qi—blushing prettily, hugging a little gray rabbit, with one shoulder exposed and a true wifely appearance—
Recalling Su Qi’s offer to replenish energy,
For a moment, Lin Xue was stunned. Did happiness really come so suddenly?
But quickly, Lin Xue realized from the situation that Su Qi was doing this out of necessity to help the Cangyou Wildcat Team escape the trap.
So, she cast aside her shame and private thoughts, and quickly walked to Su Qi’s side.
Without bothering with any further atmosphere or buildup, Lin Xue gently wrapped her arms around Su Qi’s slender waist.
She slowly parted her crimson lips and gently pressed them to Su Qi’s swan-like neck.
Gulp~ gulp~
Unlike the slow blood flow on the inside of the thigh, the artery in the neck is the most active place for blood circulation.
As she gently latched on, the warm and sweet blood flowed in, and the previously listless Lin Xue suddenly felt all her cells come alive, a marvelous sensation flooding her entire body as her energy rapidly returned.
It felt so wonderful that, under her hot pants, Lin Xue unconsciously rubbed her long, snow-white legs together.
But unlike the euphoric Lin Xue,
Su Qi, who was being bitten, felt nothing but utter shame.
Perhaps it was the effect of the Blood Princess’s Fangs—when bitten, Su Qi could feel waves of tingling current starting from his neck.
If the earlier activity under his skirt was like a toy on low power, now, with his neck being bitten, it felt like the power was turned up to max.
What did it feel like?
It was like a boy reaching the peak state while flying a plane.
That indescribable, extreme sensation kept piling up, making Su Qi’s mind blurry and his spirit scattered.
The weakness brought on by blood loss made Su Qi breathe rapidly, his pale legs gradually losing strength, and his pink knees slowly pressed together from exhaustion.
In that instant, Su Qi was just like a heroine in a doujin after being thoroughly “educated” by the boy—limp all over, eyes glazed.
On top of that, Su Qi still had to fight to hold back her moans and give Lin Xue crucial instructions.
“Lin…senpai, um after this, you… need to… take down… the ringleader first… it should… haah… be weak… mm”
The intermittent moans and trembling instructions only made the scene all the more charged with an indescribable atmosphere.
Watching Su Qi and Lin Xue interact, An Xiaoling, shortbow in hand, only felt a green haze above her head.
Even though it was an emergency, and she understood Su Qi had no choice but to let Lin Xue drink his blood,
Why did it feel like her girlfriend was turning into a ‘roar roar ah ah ah oh oh oh’ fallen woman right in front of her!
Swoosh~~~
With her shortbow drawn to the fullest, the furious An Xiaoling shot an arrow clean through a corpse’s skull.
Damn it!!
So infuriating!!!
Thanks for the chapter
