Chapter 81: Chapter 81: Seizure

“Is this Andwa’s summon? A two-star summon possess such strength?”
Despite his surprise, Silist was not idle.
He forced himself to gulp down another mana replenishing potion (the effect diminishes if consumed within the cooldown period).
Standing up to his full height, he charged towards the Fallen Baker, fiercely attacking him with his chain and light shield.
Clang!
As the giant holy hammer poised above him was rapidly depleting, the Fallen Baker freed a hand and hit Silist’s light shield with his palm, forcing Silist to retreat more than two meters.
Ignoring the aftershocks spreading within his body, Silist gritted his teeth and engaged in close combat with the Fallen Baker.
Swish!
A bit of ‘oil’ splashed onto Silist’s face.
Looking up.
The red-robed woman that had sneakily attacked from the dark was pierced through her shoulder, suspended in mid-air.
Grinding his teeth, Silist muttered, “I was too naive to think that a two-star Mysterious Apprentice’s summon could fight against this level of fallen being.
This approach is not going to work. I need to harness all my energy…Huh? What is he doing?”
Sist, ready to go down with the ship, caught sight of Han Dong sneaking out from a dark corner out of the corner of his eye.
He couldn’t understand such a suicidal act.
Camera switch (Han Dong).
“Phew…”
Han Dong took a deep breath.
This opportunity was better than he had expected.
While Silist was drawing the attention upfront, the eye on the back happened to stare at Chen Li.
However, he was running out of time.
The situation was dire for Chen Li.
Even though the pollution had no effect on her, a nerve-like tentacle was growing from the center of her eye… Once this thing enters Chen Li’s head, the outcome will be unthinkable.
Her shoulders were pierced and lifted, staring straight at the approaching nerve tentacle, but Chen Li showed no signs of pain on her face.
The pupils of her eyes sparkled a bloody glow, glaring at the giant eye on her back… using all her strength to attract attention, providing her master an opportunity to get closer.
“I must not rush… I absolutely cannot rush! I have to close in at exactly the right time; I only have one chance.”
Han Dong cast aside all distractions from the outside world; his mind was making the most precise calculations, approaching Fallen Baker’s back from the rear.
Five meters.
Four meters.
Three meters!
Upon reaching a distance of three meters.
The nerve tentacle had already touched Chen Li’s face, prying open her skin, trying to dig its way in.
Han Dong stabilized his mind.
He would immediately be spotted by the eye if he panicked at this moment.
Two meters.
Ahh! (a scream)
Normally patient Chen Li let out a horrifying scream. Being pierced by the nerve tentacle seemed to stimulate her brain area, as a viscous fluid flowed out of her seven orifices… The pain was unimaginable.
Han Dong was still patient.
One meter!
At this moment, the nerve tentacle had reached the surface of Chen Li’s brain and was about to drill into brain layers.
Long-contained anger erupted completely!
Underneath the bird beak mask, the ordinarily mild-mannered Han Dong revealed a ferocious expression.
He did not use the Fate Weapon.
He did not unleash the Ghoul Arm.
Instead, he placed his right palm onto the giant eyeball.
Churr!
Tentacles sprouted!
Speckled deep-colored tentacles drilled straight into the eyeball.
The reason Han Dong chose to do this is because when he was treating Silist’s waist injury, the tentacles that sprouted from his palm could instantly suppress the tentacles on the wound’s surface. From this point of view,
Han Dong’s tentacles were of a higher level.
It was with this in mind that Han Dong made this choice…Relatively speaking, the ‘Plague Doctor’s Short Blade’ and ‘Ghoul Arm’ struggled to cause harm to such high-level Fallen.
Tentacles insert, reverse contamination!
A speckled contaminant began spreading across the surface of the Eye.
At the same time, Han Dong felt as if his consciousness was somehow ‘connected’ to the consciousness within the Eye.
Buzz!
In a blink of an eye, Han Dong found himself standing in a mysterious space made up of black sludge.
In the center of the sludge stood Baker Marcellus, the fallen Apprentice Knight, who, for the time being, appeared without any sign of mutation…his conscious form was apparently still human.
Tightly clutched in Baker’s hand was the ‘strange Magic Book’.
Baker also felt the intrusion of an external entity and immediately turned his head.
For a moment, he was so frightened that he kept backing away.
“You… you are that person! No… that person is dead! His death wasn’t faked…
you’re an imposter! An unforgivable act of blasphemy!”
Hearing Baker’s terrified exclamation.
Han Dong realized that he now appeared as the original form of the Faceless One… with bizarre tentacles even growing around his head, and looking strikingly similar to the leader of the high-level life form outside the City Wall.
The more agitated Baker became, the more he stopped retreating and instead approached Han Dong with a menacing face.
“Impersonating the highest king, you must die!”
It must be said, this middle-aged man could indeed be a bit frightening when angry, and it looked like he was ready to strangle Han Dong on the spot.
But…
In this consciousness space, Baker’s form was simply that of an ordinary human consciousness.
And Han Dong…
The sound of flesh proliferating echoed from him.
His right arm suddenly swelled and sharpened into a claw!
Even under the consciousness form, Han Dong could still manifest the ‘Ghoul Arm’, because fundamentally this arm was a part of him.
This fallen Baker, having not yet fully completed the ritual, had merely physically fallen, and his consciousness remained as it was.
The situation was reversed.
With only one arm, Han Dong could completely restrain Baker.
The Fallen’s curses were futile.
Han Dong had but one objective, to delve deeply into this underground space, risking a great deal to participate in this ‘high-level’ battle, all for the ‘Magic
Book’
With a flick of his thumb, his sharp claws easily severed Baker’s right hand that tightly held onto the Magic Book.
Seeing the Magic Book fall into Han Dong’s hand, Baker, who was pinned to the ground, began to struggle and scream manically, not caring that his flesh was being cut open by the claws in the process.
“Ah! Give it back! Give it back! This is the key to my becoming a ‘King’… You despicable imposter, detestable thief, blasphemous lowly one, give me my thing back! ! ”
“How pathetic, that a human becomes a slave to a book.”
After Han Dong left this remark behind.
His eyes showed no mercy, for this demon who used his entire family of five as sacrifices, who sacrificed over two hundred civilians, killing him a thousand times wouldn’t be enough.
The power of the Ghoul Arm erupted, and claws tore down.
Baker’s conscious form shattered entirely.
The black sludge space collapsed and disintegrated momentarily.
The vision changed to the real world – the underground Cave.
At this moment, Han Dong had plunged his entire right arm into the giant Eye and forcibly dragged the Magic Book, which served as the ‘core’, out. As he pulled out the book covered in tentacles and neural lines.
The giant eye on his back immediately began to shrivel.
The Fallen Baker let out a scream, his body could no longer sustain the ‘Human Form’ , and his entire body started to uncontrollably disintegrate into the tentacles.
An opportunity!
Silist naturally would not miss such a golden opportunity.
Most of the energy in his skull was converted into ‘Holy Flame’, gathered on the chain.
Punishment Chain Strike!
When the chain came down, it was like a hammer falling!
The shape-shifting and tentacle-disrupted Fallen Baker had lost all his
Defense Power… He was immediately smashed into a pulp by this strike.
Han Dong, having secretly put the book into his bag, took out the metal syringe to extract the cell essence of the Fallen Baker just as Baker was being crushed.
At the same time, he brought the severely injured Miss Chen Li back into the prison..
