Chapter 714 Battle Royale!
To defeat a stronger opponent brings greater recognition.
Of course, the strength of the undead exceeded Anderson’s expectations.
If Violet hadn’t intervened, he would have had to flee in disgrace today, or even face danger.
But now… the situation was clear.
“Boom!”
Just as Anderson was daydreaming about receiving commendations, Violet destroyed another undead creature.
In just a few minutes since Violet began fighting, only three remained out of the ten undead.
“Lady Violet seems even stronger than before…” whispered the four people who were ordered to stay a hundred meters away, their faces filled with awe.
“She’s so fast… Lady Violet makes tremendous progress basically every six months… her power seems limitless,” Edward said.
“I’ve always known Lady Violet was extraordinary. That’s precisely why I chose to follow her in the first place,” Rod said with a smile, stroking his chin.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Violet attacked swiftly, eliminating the remaining three undead creatures.
A deathly silence fell over the area in front of the castle gate.
The survivors stared at Violet’s figure, their eyes filled with shock.
But soon, many began to harbor different thoughts.
If Violet possessed such strength, why didn’t she act sooner!?
If she had intervened earlier, their companions wouldn’t have died in the bellies of those undead creatures!
Obviously, this woman did it deliberately!
The reason she didn’t act was because she wanted to watch people from other mercenary guilds die, thereby weakening these guilds!
Realizing this, the group’s expressions darkened, their gazes toward Violet flickering with resentment.
By the rules of the dark world, Violet’s actions were beyond reproach.
But they wouldn’t be grateful for her intervention either.
Facing the various gazes directed at her, Violet remained expressionless.
She raised her head, looking at the gray-white sky, her purple eyes flickering slightly.
She knew clearly that heaven didn’t exist.
But at this moment, she still hoped Croy could see this scene.
See the moment when the girl who once needed his protection avenged him with her own hands.
…
“How’s it going?”
Inside the castle, Fang Yu stood beside Gary and asked.
“I’m locking onto its position now, it’ll be ready soon,” Gary replied.
At this moment, a simplified map was displayed on the monitor in front of Gary.
Gary typed on the keyboard, and soon a flashing dot appeared on the map.
This dot was flashing and moving.
“The Undead King is currently… returning here!” Gary said with surprise.
His surprise wasn’t feigned but genuine.
Because before leaving, the Undead King had indeed told him it would return tomorrow morning.
But now it was coming back after being gone for just three hours. Why the sudden return?
Could it have sensed Fang Yu’s arrival?
Gary’s mind raced, considering countermeasures.
If the Undead King returned… with its power, it might be able to deal with Fang Yu.
Even if it wasn’t a match for Fang Yu, Gary could implement another plan he had prepared in advance…
“How long until it gets here?” Fang Yu asked.
“It’s very close, only a kilometer or two from the castle,” Gary answered.
“From which direction?” Fang Yu asked.
“134 degrees longitude… simply put, it’s coming toward the castle gate at extremely high speed,” Gary said. “If you want to find it, going out now would be perfect.”
Fang Yu narrowed his eyes at Gary, then instructed Bai Ran beside him: “Stay here and watch him. I’ll go out to meet this Undead King.”
“Alright,” Bai Ran nodded.
Fang Yu walked toward the breach in front of them, then leaped out.
Seeing Fang Yu leave, Gary’s eyes flashed with a gleam.
He glanced at Bai Ran, then tapped on the keyboard again.
“Since the show is starting early, let’s release all the remaining undead…” A cold smile flashed across Gary’s face.
“What are you doing? Stop immediately!” Bai Ran noticed Gary typing on the keyboard and frowned.
“I’m just shutting down some programs, almost done. If you’re worried, I won’t touch the computer anymore,” Gary smiled ingratiatingly, entered a command in the execution box, then immediately removed his hands from the keyboard and raised them.
Bai Ran knew Gary had done something sneaky, but he knew nothing about computers and had no idea what Gary had done.
And since Fang Yu hadn’t ordered him to kill Gary… for now, he could only stare helplessly, unable to do anything.
…
Fang Yu circled around the outer wall of the castle, about to reach the front.
At that moment, he heard a series of screams.
Fang Yu leaped to the top of the castle and looked down.
He saw a large group of undead creatures flying out from the castle gate.
Compared to the previous ten undead, this batch was not only more numerous but also much faster.
The people who had thought the undead were eliminated were now screaming in terror, fleeing in panic.
Seeing these undead rushing out, Violet’s expression changed slightly.
The undead creatures emitted no aura.
So after eliminating those ten undead earlier, she thought that was all of them.
She never expected the castle to contain so many more undead!
Moreover, this group of emerging undead attacked completely differently from the previous ten!
They didn’t stop to use their abdomens to generate suction but instead pounced directly toward the fleeing people!
“Ah… stay away!”
“Help! Can anyone help me!”
“Violet, if you save me, our Bad Boys Guild will definitely repay you…”
Screams erupted from behind.
The undead creatures pounced at extreme speed toward each person, their bodies growing arms to grab people and stuff them into their abdomens!
“Splat!”
One living person after another was sucked into their bellies, spraying blood, then disappearing.
A total of thirty-eight undead creatures!
And there were only about fifty people left at the scene.
In just a few seconds, more than half of them died!
“Run! Run!”
Anderson shouted, rushing backward with all his might!
The young people behind him were too frightened to speak, following close behind.
“Ah! No! Help!”
The next second, a scream came from behind.
Anderson looked back and saw a young man at the back of the group being caught by an undead.
When he turned his head, he saw the young man’s terrified face.
“Splat!”
Then, the young man was sucked into its abdomen, bursting with blood.
“Oren!”
Seeing this, the other members of the group cried out in anguish, their hearts filled with both sorrow and fear.
They were members of the Nord royal family, raised in a sheltered environment since childhood. How could they have ever witnessed such scenes?
“Anderson, what should we do now!? These undead are much faster than us! We can’t possibly escape just by running!” At this moment, a young man shouted hysterically.
His eyes were bloodshot as he glared at Anderson.
He was Drusen, the older brother of Oren who had just died.
Witnessing his brother’s death had completely shattered his heart.
Now, he felt only hatred toward Anderson!
If Anderson hadn’t tricked them into coming here for so-called honor, he would never have come to this place.
Just minutes ago, when they suggested leaving early, Anderson had rejected the idea!
It could be said that his brother was killed because of Anderson!
This bastard cared only about his own title, not about their lives at all!
Drusen’s angry shouts made the other young people resentful as well.
They glared at Anderson’s back as he ran ahead, gritting their teeth.
At this moment, Anderson couldn’t be bothered to argue back, he just kept running!
His courage had been completely shattered.
He only wanted to survive!
Honor, titles, none of it mattered anymore!
Anderson released all his energy, pushing his speed to the limit.
Compared to the young people behind him, his strength was still a level higher.
So when he accelerated, he pulled ahead of the young people by a body length.
“Ah…”
By this time, the undead had caught up, sucking one young person after another into their bellies, grinding them to death.
“Anderson, if I go to hell, I will become a vengeful ghost to find you!” Drusen shouted at Anderson, who didn’t even look back.
Anderson ignored him completely, continuing to run forward.
