Skill extraction from Dragon Clan

Chapter 653: The Desperate King's Determination (Transition Chapter)

The shrill sound of sirens resounded through the sky and earth. After watching the "fireworks", the noisy crowd gradually dispersed, and the originally crowded coastline became empty in an instant.

The silver coins were thrown up and caught repeatedly. The King of Despair was still lying on the railing, looking at the sea with an expressionless face. He suddenly said:
"Hey, who don't have a plan?"

"Ok?"

The other three people leaning on the railing looked at him in confusion.

In the distance, the battle between Libra and the blood realm followers was in full swing.

boom!
As planned, Bloodhammer Brody smashed the nose of the plane carrying the Blood Realm followers into a building that had been under renovation and was deserted, trying to keep the battlefield as far away from the crowd as possible.

The coins flew again and again, and the King of Despair's expression became a little irritated:
"You must be kidding, this is just a game."

Catching the coin again, the King of Despair seemed to have made up his mind. Although he looked annoyed, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

……

……

"Great! Got it!"

Seeing that the blood circle followers were temporarily isolated from the potential ghoul army, Klaus looked at Leo, who was operating the Divine Eye with all his strength and writing something on the notepad in his hand.

"Leonardo, did you see his name clearly?!"

"Not yet, I've only seen half of it."

"Yeah!"

The first phase of the plan went smoothly, but there was indeed a small gap in the second phase of the plan, so Klaus decided to change strategy without hesitation.

Leo, who was carefully writing the real name of the Blood Realm dependent, was startled and felt someone grabbing his collar. Then, as he screamed, Klaus grabbed him and jumped off the top of the building.

“What? Wait…Aaaaaaaaaa!!”

As he fell rapidly, a bloody cross condensed in Klaus's hand and he inserted it into the reinforced concrete of the building, constantly using the bloody cross as a midpoint to slow down his falling speed.

Behind him, Zapp followed closely, quickly landing using the bloody cross as a jumping point.

After adjusting his posture slightly, when approaching the gap in the building that was previously created by the smash, Klaus swung his arm and swung his body in.

However, as soon as they entered the building, they were confronted with a frenzied attack from the blood realm's followers.

Fortunately, Klaus reacted quickly, and before the opponent's extended claws got close, he used the blood cross condensed in time to block it as a shield.

As soon as the blood magic condensed in the blood came into contact with the body of the blood realm follower, it exerted a strong corrosive effect like concentrated sulfuric acid, forcing the opponent to retract its claws.

Zap also landed, and couldn't help feeling a little sick watching the scene in front of him:

"Wow, this is so interesting. He is attacking while regenerating his skull..."

"Ahhh! Stop talking, I have to look over there now!" Leo urgently interrupted this guy's description.

Zapp did not chat with him as usual, his expression was a little serious:

"...No, just look at it calmly, it's all right now."

In just a blink of an eye, the blood realm follower that was smashed into a pool of blood foam re-condensed its body.

"The speed is really amazing." Zapp spit out the cigarette in his mouth, "Is it the acceleration of reverse regeneration... What should I do?"

"Well, first we need to know his name and get him to a safe area when Leo finishes writing." Klaus quickly arranged the next things to do, "Is everyone in the plane okay?"

"I don't know. The power of the blood realm followers is too strong..."

While the two of them were discussing quickly, Leo was behind Klaus, carefully looking at the blood realm follower who was so close to him and exuding a terrifying aura, while quickly writing the other party's real name.

After hearing what Klaus said, he looked at the situation inside the plane out of curiosity, and then became a little confused.

"Why is it this color? Is the person inside human?"

In his vision, the aura of the blood realm's followers was still as bright crimson as ever.

But the aura of the humanoid creature in the plane was strangely blue like the sea - that was an aura color Leo had never seen before.

"Move quickly, don't panic, and make sure you write accurately."

Klaus's voice woke Leo from his doubts, and he immediately clenched the pen in his hand and wrote the last part of his real name on the note.

"Okay... I've finished writing it!"

Leo tore off the note and handed it to Klaus. When Klaus took it, his eyes were still fixed on the blood realm dependent in front of him, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.

The blood realm followers who had already recovered were floating in the air, looking at the people in front of them who had rushed in and then stood still with some confusion.

Although he didn't know what these people were doing, he knew at least one thing: they were definitely doing something that was not good for him.

His sight drifted between the three people in front of him, and finally stopped on Leo.

Two of the three people were on high alert at all times, and only Leo, who seemed to be the weakest, was writing and drawing non-stop.

No matter how you look at it, you can tell there's something wrong with this guy.

"Let's start with... the kid."

The blood realm follower thought silently in his heart, and with the help of the ruins as cover, he had quietly extended his blood and lurked behind Leo.

Wow!

Sharp claws made of blood emerged from the ground and stabbed towards Leo fiercely.

boom!
The blood realm follower's sudden attack failed to produce any results. Before his extended claws could get close to Leo, a bullet flashing with golden electric light hit his forehead.

On another building in the distance, K.K., who had been prepared for a long time, pulled the bolt of the sniper rifle, and the smoking shell flew out.

"Hit right between the eyebrows!"

Golden lightning exploded, cooking the blood realm's followers' brains in an instant.

The brain was damaged and the control over blood was briefly stagnant, allowing Klaus to rescue Leo from the claws in time.

At the same time, with the help of the brief opportunity created by K.K., everyone present also took action together.

Bloodmaul Brody, who had been hiding in the ruins, suddenly jumped out and took over Klaus's job of protecting Leo. He picked him up and jumped out of the building with Leo without hesitation.

Klaus and Zapp also acted at the same time. Klaus entangled the blood realm followers who had just reacted, while Zapp approached the nose of the plane and tried to rescue the people inside.

"Wow ah ah ah ah!"

Feeling his body falling freely, even though he knew that the people around him would protect him, Leo couldn't help but scream.

But before he could shout for long, he was stunned, because Bloodhammer Brody moved too fast and Leo's God's Eye was still at full power, so he could clearly see the obvious changes in the building in front of him.

The building that seemed normal to others suddenly burst into light that wrapped around the building and shot straight into the sky in Leo's sight.

For a moment, a network of red cracks appeared around the building, but unfortunately they were fleeting and soon returned to normal.

"what is that?!"

At the same time, in a piece of space debris hidden under the building that Libra used as a battlefield.

The space inside this piece of space debris is extremely huge, not even much smaller than the space of Hersharemz.

A large number of ruined buildings floated in this space as if they had lost gravity, and countless golden spell-like light bands entangled the many suspended wreckage and ruins.

The further "down" you go, the denser the ruins become, and the more light bands there are. Although there is no sun inside the space debris, the light gathered by these light bands still illuminates the entire space.

In the most central part of the space debris, a huge green pool is surrounded by ruins and light bands.

There is no doubt that this is one of the hidden nodes of the Hersharemz Great Barrier.

As the red aura of the building that Leo saw erupted, the originally calm pool also vibrated, causing waves.

……

……

"What do you think the probability is that in order to cause one thing to happen, I have to do another thing?"

Looking at the quiet ocean and feeling the cool breeze blowing across his face, King Despair suddenly asked with an expressionless face.

"What are you talking about? What does it mean?" Alykira asked puzzledly while chewing popcorn in her mouth.

Seeing the indifferent expressions of the other three, King Despair once again showed a helpless look:

"Don't worry about it, just answer me."

Alykira swallowed the food in her mouth, raised her head and thought for a moment, then immediately replied, "I don't know~"

Although he was wearing a formal dress, Femto, who had no manners at all and was looking up at the sky with his cane, also answered in a lazy voice:

"It's really boring. No matter what the world becomes, I just want to do what I want to do. If I don't want to do it, I won't do it. I'm not crazy enough to think about these things."

Zheng Shu understood what Feimuto meant by saying this, looked at the King of Despair in front of him, and suddenly reached out and rubbed his hair:
"It seems that you have encountered a situation where you have to do something you hate..."

"Tsk! It's not my turn for you to comfort me."

Impatiently slapping Zheng Shu's hand away, the King of Despair turned around, leaned against the railing, and looked up at the night sky.

“No matter who you are, you will always think about something similar: Is what you are doing now meaningful or worthless? Will you be rewarded one day? Or is it just a waste of time? How much impact can your existence have on the world, or is it no impact at all?”

Ding!
He flicked the coin in his hand again, but this time Despair did not catch it in his palm. Instead, he let it fall on the back of his hand and covered it with his hand.

"Front." Femto said.

Although King Despair did not say anything, he had already placed his bet the moment the coin fell.

The King of Despair smiled and said, "The other side."

Alykira was still sitting on the railing, looking out at the sea while eating her popcorn, while Zheng Shu looked at the two people who suddenly started a bet and shrugged helplessly.

With his dynamic vision, he could clearly see that the coin should be facing up. Not only him, but everyone else present should be able to see it.

But King Despair still wanted to carry out such a simple "bet" and was even willing to let Fimto place the bet first.

Combined with what the King of Despair said before, the situation is actually very clear. The other party is expressing his attitude in this way.

Sure enough, as the King of Despair moved his hand away and looked at the coin with the word "花" on the reverse side on his arm, a smile appeared on his face:
"I won, so these preparations are enough."

At the same time, inside the barrier node deep underground, the brightness of the golden spell slowly faded, and eventually completely lost its power.

The golden light band composed of the spells also dimmed, and the light pulsation produced by the green lake in the center became stronger and stronger, and after breaking through the critical point, the light also disappeared.

Leo, who was standing in a daze at the bottom of the building, suddenly noticed that red light burst out from the building again.

However, this time the light was more intense than the last time, and it even kept converging, eventually exploding like exploding fireworks.

Such a grand "fireworks" did not attract the attention of any other passers-by except Leo and Bloody Hammer Brody, who was attracted by him and also looked at the building.

"Wow~"

Arikira had turned around at some point, looking at the brilliance exploding in the sky in the distance, and let out a shrill cry of admiration.

"Is this true?" The King of Despair was also somewhat surprised, as if he was surprised that his move this time could achieve such an effect. "I made a profit."

Fimto was surprised for a moment, then turned to look at the King of Despair.

Although he still had a smile on his face, his expression showed inexplicable fatigue and sadness.

After looking at what might be his only friend for a moment, King Despair restrained the smile on his face, closed his eyes, and sighed:

"It's so boring... I hate this from the bottom of my heart."

"You are so determined to trigger the second Great Collapse that you are willing to go against your own principles and even cheat to achieve this..."

After interpreting the meaning of King Despair's behavior, Zheng Shu shook his head.

All along, the King of Despair has placed himself in the position of an "observer", and even if he occasionally merges with humans, he will not do much.

But this time, King Despair broke his own ideals and destroyed the barrier through the hands of others and disguised it as an accident.

For a superior being, it is not difficult to influence or even destroy a barrier node whose location is already known, but the reason why the King of Despair used this complicated and cumbersome method was to prove his serious attitude to the people present.

If a superior being is willing to act at all costs, even abandoning his previous beliefs, then others naturally have no right to stop him.

Although it is unknown why the King of Despair has such a strong obsession to trigger a second great collapse, since he has expressed such a belief, Zheng Shu can only "back down".

At least before King Despair successfully triggers the Great Collapse, Zheng Shu will not stop him.

……

……

At the same time the node was destroyed, inside the Santa Alanya Central Hospital.

Xiaobai, who was watching the news, suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart. The pain was so severe that he could not stand up and he fell to the ground.
