MMORPG: War God, You are Invincible Again-Chapter 647 - 134: Returning to the Ancient Dream (26)

With the barrier shattered, the Red Knights reacted swiftly. Three squads, nearly thirty orc elites, charged straight toward Lu Hong.

Yet, Lu Hong was not in the least panicked. Smashing the Array had not even depleted half of the power he drew from his Bloodthirst, and dealing with the Red Knights wasn’t a difficult task for him.

The power of blood surged within him, unleashing the full force of his vitality from his heavy sword. The ghostly, blood-red visage once again coalesced behind Lu Hong, letting out a fierce roar at the incoming Red Knights.

"Charge!" Lu Hong took the lead, his heavy sword conjuring up a blood-stained whirlwind, forcing the approaching Red Knights back.

They were repelled before even making contact, and Lu Hong’s combat prowess refreshed Akes’s recognition of him yet again.

On the fringes, the Red Knights were almost the pinnacle of army strength. An opponent the Red Knights could not defeat would undoubtedly stride forcefully through the Laze Jungle.

How could he be this strong? Why could this human be so powerful?! A chill surged in the depths of Akes’s heart as he stared intently at Lu Hong, surrounded by the Red Knights.

Lei Jinjin and others wanted to assist Lu Hong but were intercepted by the orc soldiers, unable to break through for the moment.

"Run quickly!" Lei Jinjin shouted loudly, urging Lu Hong.

However, Lu Hong simply laughed, "You’ll be helping me just by killing a few more orcs."

"Got it!" As Lu Hong’s devoted fan, Lei Jinjin would unconditionally obey her idol’s words.

Taking the order, Lei Jinjin no longer held back. Thunder erupted within her, dark storm clouds pressing down as numerous lightning snakes thunderously crashed down among the orc soldiers, exploding and reaping lives.

Watching this scene, Akes felt as if his head would explode. Was there actually another human with special abilities?

It was not just Lei Jinjin; the Holy Guards and the Hai Ge Clan’s squad went all out too, with Fighting Spirit and Magic Power bursting forth, painting a landscape of dazzling phenomena. ƒгeewёbnovel.com

Akes was not just numb in the scalp but throughout his entire body. He had seen more specials in one day than he had in his entire life up to this point.

While Akes was still reeling in shock and had not regained his senses, Lu Hong had already clashed with the Red Knights.

The Red Knights were Akes’s family’s elite, chosen from thousands, and rigorously trained. Each of them possessed Second Transition Early Stage battle prowess. Had Lu Hong not activated his Bloodthirst, it wasn’t certain he could have withstood so many Red Knights. But with the enhancement of Bloodthirst, without a few Second Transition Late Stage experts, Lu Hong didn’t feel the slightest bit intimidated.

Lei Jinjin and the others fought fiercely to kill the orc soldiers, providing a constant stream of vitality replenishment for Lu Hong. This allowed Lu Hong to unleash his energy without any reservation, each strike imbued with a great amount of vital force, pounding the Red Knights into a continuous retreat.

After more than ten minutes of struggle, the thirty Red Knights couldn’t even get close to Lu Hong. Instead, their comrades were being felled one by one, breathless.

Even for soldiers loyal to the Akes family, their minds were now overtaken by fear.

As the Red Knights retreated in defeat, Akes’s face instantly turned deathly pale.

Ninety percent of his family’s forces had been dispatched as reinforcements to Beixing Mountain for the decisive battle with Le Leng. Now, with the defeat of the Red Knights, it meant that the Akes family had no more soldiers to stop Lu Hong’s march.

Having repelled the Red Knights, Lu Hong pointed his sword at Akes and smiled, "Akes, you should remember who I am now, shouldn’t you?"

Of course, Akes remembered. He gritted his teeth, "You are the human who escaped from my estate!"

Akes now regretted it so much. If he had taken Lu Hong back then and stewed him for a soup, how could there be such peril today?

Furthermore, what Akes regretted most was dismissing his guards.

Originally, to demonstrate his absolute dominance in Laze to Leicester, Akes had withdrawn a large number of guards. He wanted to convey the peace and stability under his rule in this manner.

The result was that he inadvertently provided Lu Hong with perfect convenience to escape. Otherwise, relying solely on Lu Hong, who was at the First Transition Early Stage at that time, it would have been impossible to escape with Beisha alive.

Anyway, it was too late for regrets now. In an instant, a red whirlwind whirled right before his eyes. Lu Hong looked at the trembling Viscount orc and spoke gravely, "Did you ever imagine this day when you were eating humans?"

"Which day? I only hate that I didn’t eat you back then!" Akes would not bow to Lu Hong, nor would he beg for mercy. He was Viscount among beastmen, with his dignity and honor.

As soon as Akes finished speaking, the intense pain that shot through his body made him gasp in pain.

His right arm was severed at the shoulder and as it flew off, the grimacing ghostly face behind Lu Hong bit down on it, swallowing the arm whole.

Seeing his own arm being devoured, Akes couldn’t help but step back, "What... what exactly are you?!"

The Akes family boasted an ancient lineage, filled with records of bizarre events in their past annals. Yet they had never heard of the mysterious ghostly face behind Lu Hong, and horror spread ceaselessly in Akes’s heart.

Lu Hong had no desire for idle chatter with this man-eating monster. Just as he was about to behead his opponent, a flying axe whistling through the air with a piercing screech came chopping towards Lu Hong’s head.

Sensing the danger, Lu Hong stepped back to dodge the attack.

Upon seeing the flying axe, Akes’s face lit up, "Grandfather?!"

Lu Hong turned his head to look at the white-haired, elderly beast-man approaching him.

Holding two axes, the old beast-man stepped toward Lu Hong, "Sir, you’ve broken into my residence with the intent of killing our clan leader. It would only be fair if I were to slay you today."

Lu Hong watched the old man silently and said, "Why all the fuss? Akes terrorized our human race. How come you don’t mention that at all?"

Of course, the old beast-man wouldn’t bring that up. Wouldn’t that end the conversation right there? If it had been ten or so years earlier, he might have had confidence in defeating Lu Hong, but as his body aged, he was no longer as brave as he once was. At first, he had hoped to send Lu Hong away with words. Although he knew the chances were low, it was still worth a try.

Seeing Lu Hong’s resolute intent to kill, the old beast-man stopped talking and came at Lu Hong with his axes.

At first, Lu Hong didn’t take the white-haired beast-man seriously, but when the old foe’s axe blow shattered the Qi-blood barricade, Lu Hong had to start taking things seriously.

This beast-man was not weak—in fact, he was incredibly strong!

The bloodline power activated within the old beast-man turned him into a fully-powered grinding machine, his dual axes creating an impenetrable defense; Lu Hong was nearly locked within it.

As the heavily Qi-blood infused heavy sword collided with the sharp axes, Lu Hong found himself at no great advantage.

In a short time, Lu Hong was dumbfounded by the beast-man’s furious assault, continually retreating to avoid the attacks.

Three minutes later, Lu Hong began to grasp the old beast-man’s capabilities and launched a counterattack.

In an instant, the roles reversed, and the old beast-man was beaten back step by step by Lu Hong, who did not let up in his spirit, energy, or essence.

Parrying the double axes lunging down at him, Lu Hong kicked the old beast-man in the abdomen, sending him flying tens of meters away, crashing heavily to the ground.

The pained old beast-man struggled several times, but was unable to rise.

"Grandfather!" Akes ran to his side, weeping painfully, "It’s my fault, all my fault. Please run, I’ll cover your escape."

The old beast-man patted Akes’s face, smiling, "Akes, you are a good clan leader. Grandfather has never regretted entrusting the family to you. Today’s disaster is not your fault alone; don’t blame yourself."

"Enough chit-chat. If you have anything else to prattle on about, do it on your way to the netherworld." Despite witnessing the deep affection between grandfather and grandson, Lu Hong’s determination to kill was unwavering. Eating humans was an unforgivable act, and the blood debt owed by the human race must be repaid with blood!

With those words, two heads rolled to the ground, and with that instant, the Akes family was declared extinct.

With the Viscount gone, the beast-men soldiers who had fought for the Akes family naturally lost their will to fight and began to flee.

Lei Jinjin and the others were exhausted from fending off the beast-men’s onslaught; they were in no shape to pursue and simply collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath while still in a state of shock. Had they just wiped out a beast-man family? And was it really by the hands of their small group of twenty-some people?

Would anyone believe this if word got out?

After confirming there were no beast-men hiding in Viscount Akes’s residence, Lu Hong finally let go of his Bloodthirst state. Naturally, he also took the opportunity to store the massive amount of Qi-blood into his giant sword. There’s no reason to waste free Qi-blood.

Seeing that Lei Jinjin and the others were not in danger, Lu Hong immediately entered the dungeon.

Months ago, over a dozen young humans had been imprisoned there. Now, only three remained.

With mixed emotions, Lu Hong apologized, "I’m sorry for being late."

"You... are... ?!" The prisoners were astonished to see Lu Hong. Even after leaving the dungeon, they couldn’t snap out of their disbelief.
