Hero? Are You Worthy?-Chapter 761 - 522: Holy Daughter, Death Approaching (2)_2

Inas, Florence, and Ireta had only just met, but a certain tacit understanding had already formed between the three women.

When the ice layer was smashed open and real danger emerged, the three of them immediately judged that it was beyond their capability to handle.

It was impossible to imagine how terrifying these evil spirits, eroded by the Evil God for over a millennium, could be.

Once these evil spirits spread across the Sky Dome Continent, it would likely be a disaster more exaggerated than earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, or storms. The land would flow with rivers of blood and be littered with corpses everywhere.

Thus, Ireta did not choose to flee, even though she might not be able to suppress so many evil spirits; she had to stay there and at least hold those spirits back.

Ireta believed that Inas and Florence would make the right decision.

Indeed, that was the case. Under Florence’s orders, Inas headed to the Ice Duchy at the highest speed while Florence attempted to contact Qin Chu through Message Magic while fleeing.

Now, on the entire Sky Dome Continent, other than Qin Chu, the Favored of the Holy Light Goddess, there was no second person who could suppress this calamity.

However, an unplanned strategy, although perfect, was bound to have some mishaps when actually put into action.

Ireta, despite being a powerful Level 99 being, was not a demigod and did not have the strength to hold back a multitude of evil spirits and seven powerful beings at the same time. Ultimately, a replicas of an original Hero escaped from the Death Domain and began to pursue Inas.

Inas had no intention of fighting the opponent; she clearly understood that for her at that moment, acting bravely was utterly meaningless.

Only by finding Qin Chu could she see the light of victory.

Hence, Inas nearly desperately stimulated her own strength, completely regardless of any consequences, even if excessively stimulating her magic power and fighting energy caused her body’s meridians to crack and blood to flow from her eyes, nose, mouth, and ears. Inas simply did not care.

Yet, no matter how desperately Inas tried, the distance between them kept reducing.

Feeling the aura from the long spear behind her, Inas realized that her journey of escape was coming to an end. All she could do was clench her teeth and hold tightly to her shield to block the opponent’s attack.

Perhaps she might not make it to the Ice Duchy to seek help, might not find Qin Chu in time, but at the very least, she must delay this enemy here for as much time as possible.

The long spear, dreamlike and indistinct, casting fleeting shadows.

Even with Inas’s strength, she could not capture the trajectory of the long spear.

All she felt was a sudden immense force transmitted from the shield; her body uncontrollably retreated across the ice, leaving two long indentations on the hard ice.

The tiny ice fragments scattered everywhere.

Followed by the extremely grating sound of metal scraping.

The next instant, the sturdy shield was pierced through.

The sharp spearhead penetrated directly through Inas’s shoulder.

The shoulder guard shattered into fragments, and drops of deep red viscous blood spurted from the wound, solidifying before hitting the ground, forming crystals like bright rubies, glistening brightly.

With her shoulder severely injured, Inas let out a muffled groan.

It was at this moment that Inas finally saw the enemy who was pursuing her; until then, she hadn’t even turned her head to look.

It was a woman.

Not particularly beautiful, with a plain appearance and a slightly plump body.

Especially her abdomen, which was noticeably bulging.

It appeared as though she were pregnant, but within this woman’s belly, there was no sense of life, only chaotic yet powerful energy.

It seemed the woman was using her belly as an energy storage device.

The grayish-black skin looked somewhat dry and cracked.

The woman’s pupils sparkled with excitement; she stretched her mouth into a cruel smile, apparently considering Inas as delicious food, eyeing her from head to toe, deciding where to start eating.

That look sent chills down Inas’s spine; she did not doubt at all that this woman would consume her corpse, possibly even eat her alive when she was still breathing but unable to resist.

After a quick glance, Inas didn’t hesitate or delay, and completely ignored the severe pain shooting through his shoulder. His body suddenly retreated, forcibly pulling the spearhead from his shoulder, releasing another spurt of blood.

The next second, Inas flipped his right hand, and several bottles of Magic Potion appeared in his palm.

These Magic Potions were all the type that could enhance one’s strength in a short period of time.

Inas had already consumed many before. The use of Magic Potions was limited; absorbing too many in a short time could seriously damage the body, but at that moment, Inas had no time to care about that.

He boldly swallowed these Magic Potions.

Meanwhile, the mysterious woman opposite didn’t remain idle. Almost at the same time, a bluish-green light flared in her eyes, and her abdomen seemed to shrink slightly.

But her mouth suddenly widened, tearing directly from the corners, her face splitting into upper and lower halves in an instant, revealing a mouth full of crimson, shark-like teeth.

Awwwoo.

A wolf-like howl emanated from the woman’s mouth.

This weird woman, seemingly unable to restrain her belly’s craving for food any longer, lunged forward, her genuine gaping maw aimed straight at Inas’s head.

Judging by her appearance, she might engulf Inas’s head in her mouth in one bite, and with a grind of her sharp teeth, she could instantly turn Inas’s head into fragments.

"Rock Armor."

Inas reacted incredibly quickly, hastily discarding his shield, spreading his arms wide, and desperately channeling the bit of Magic Power that had just recovered to uphold a Magic Shield.

With a bang, the woman’s body collided with the Rock Armor.

The horrific and savage strength passed directly through the Magic Shield to Inas’s body; the athletic Divine Being was sent flying backward, slamming heavily onto the ice layer and skidding thousands of meters along the smooth ice.

The golden battle armor on his body shattered in an instant.

Before Inas’s body could stop, the woman’s body had somehow already appeared in the air above. The Long Spear reappeared in her palm, swinging down like a falling meteor.

Buzz!

To the naked eye, a deep depression appeared in the sky above Inas.

The rapidly spinning Long Spear swallowed the surrounding air, and Inas felt a strong sensation of suffocation.

Although his brain was in chaos, at that moment, Inas dared not pause for a moment and forcibly slapped the ground with his right hand, his body immediately rolling out of the way.

Sputch!

The Long Spear nearly grazed Inas’s back as it pierced the ice layer.

The next instant, the contained strength exploded.

The glacier began to tremble like an earthquake, undulating like ocean waves.

The thick ice around was immediately shattered into fragments, filling the air with fine icy dust everywhere.

Inas’s body, due to the close distance, was directly impacted and, along with the broken ice, was flung out.

The enemy’s strength was indeed too overpowering; even with the boost from the Magic Potion, Inas found no opportunity to counterattack, and merely dodging the opponent’s attacks had already exhausted all his strength.

It was unknown how much time had passed before Inas’s body finally crashed onto the ice surface with a smack.

Blood kept spewing from his mouth, and his chest was a patchwork of deep red.

Even more, his back, grazed by the Long Spear in an instant, had lost a large portion of flesh, even revealing the stark white bones beneath.

Pain finally showed on Inas’s face, she tried to rise from the ground, but just as she tried to use her right hand to prop herself up, she found that her arm no longer obeyed her commands, the bones completely shattered.

As she watched the woman beside her, once again baring her gaping maw and step by step coming towards her, Inas’s heart continually sank.

Could it be, she was truly going to die here?
