Chapter 32 Blood Frenzy
"No! If you die, who will help me?" A voice suddenly rang in Lathel's head.
Although he felt that those words were very familiar, in these last moments, he could not recognise whose voice it was.
Immediately after that… his mind sank into darkness.
[Ding! Your level has temporarily increased to level 80.]
[Ding! You have temporarily gained a new skill: Blood Frenzy.]
…
Name: Blood Frenzy
Rank: A
Description: Burn life energy to convert into physical strength. A skill that only the kings of the Beast clan can use.
The lower the life energy, the greater the power.
…
Although the system showed two notifications, Lathel was no longer awake to see the two notifications.
"Shh!" Akko was angry: "Damn it! I don't feel comfortable killing you so easily."
At this time, the dust outside dissipated, and Lizaru and the other three people appeared, without any injuries.
The cauldron was lying still about a meter from Lizaru.
Lizaru glanced at the Cauldron, however, he did not pay attention to it as he looked towards Lathel.
"Lizaru…" Swordary spoke: "Luckily I pulled you back, otherwise, you would have…"
"I know!" Lizaru shouted.
Swordary seemed to be familiar with Lizaru's personality, so he just shook his head: "How do you want to handle this cauldron?"
"Don't be stupid! Prioritize the stone first." Lizaru said contemptuously. It seemed he didn't regard Swordary as the person who had just saved his life.
He looked towards Akko and said loudly: "Find the stone!"
Akko gritted her teeth, even though she was angry, she couldn't resist Lizaru's orders.
She bent over, and reached toward the small space bag that was strapped to Lathel's hip.
"Brat! You're lucky that you died so quickly, that knife shouldn't have pierced your heart, it should have deviated a little, that would have made you feel more pain." Akko muttered.
Suddenly, the moment Akko's hand was less than 5 cm away from Lathel's space bag, she became startled because... Lathel had disappeared.
"What the hell?" Akko internally shouted, her intuition was telling her that she was in danger.
However, before Akko could react, a fist carrying terrifying lightning rushed forward.
BAM!
This punch hit Akko straight in the face, her disfigured face seemed like it was about to break.
Lathel's fist was so strong that Akko flew more than ten meters away, she hit the stone wall of the castle, causing it to collapse.
Akko was buried in rubble, and it was unknown if she was alive or dead. The punch just now had broken her face and lowered her survival rate.
Lizaru and the others were startled by this and they looked towards Lathel.
At this moment, Lathel's body was surrounded by the lightning element, and he was emitting a dazzling aura. Countless small lightning bolts shot outward from his body, making him look extremely dangerous.
PTSK!
A howling sound of wind rang out, and from Lathel's body, a blue shock wave shot out that quickly spread around.
It was like a hurricane as it blew everything around away.
The shock wave swept through Lizaru's group. Even though it didn't cause any damage, the shock wave still showed off how much power Lathel was welding right now.
The wound on his chest had also healed, leaving a terrible scar.
Lizaru was not afraid at all. On the contrary, he frowned and smiled contemptuously: "Interesting, he has F-Rank talent but he possesses a fascinating power. Perhaps he has some kind of skill that hides his power."
"Lizaru, will Akko be okay?" Haya spoke up, her voice filled with concern.
Lizaru snorted: "Huh! Ignore that stupid bitch, our mission is to get the stone, do you understand?"
Haya frowned then lowered her head to look at the crystal ball, as she felt a bit uncomfortable.
Lizaru just glanced at Haya for a moment, then said: "Taki!"
Taki sighed: "I hate people giving me orders the most."
"Don't talk nonsense. If you don't want to work, you can leave." Lizaru said in an annoyed tone.
Taki also remained silent and walked towards Lathel. He wore heavy armor that covered his entire body including his face. The solid armor was white and it was decorated with a few yellow patterns.
Behind him was a white cloak, with a small yellow shield-shaped symbol on the cloak.
Lathel opened his eyes, his irises had turned blue like thunder, and it radiated an aura filled with murderous intent and destructive power.
He walked step by step towards Taki. Every step caused the ground to crumble, and cracks spread all around.
Taki suddenly laughed loudly: "Hahahaha... are you scaring me?" You're using energy so wastefully, do you think it's cool?"
"Brat, let me teach you how to use magical energy."
Lathel glared at him, then immediately rushed towards Taki. Lathel's speed was extremely terrifying. In just 1 second, Lathel had overcome a distance of more than 40 meters, and arrived in front of Taki.
He swung his Fist and punched Taki's face.
BAM!
Lathel's fist and helmet collided, and a blast of air pressure exploded, blasting everything within a radius of 5 meters.
However, Taki's helmet remained intact as if nothing had happened. On the contrary, when Lathel's fingers came into contact with Taki's helmet, they were broken, his white bones pierced his flesh, and protruded out, which made his blood flow out like a stream.
"Hahahaha… stupid boy. This armor is a Rank B item, it is even enhanced by a Smith Enchanter."
"Even if you use a sword, you probably won't be able to cause any scratches to my armor. Besides, the hands of a fool like you are dirtying my armor."
Taki said contemptuously. However, Lathel didn't seem to hear what Taki said, much less feel any pain.
Lathel immediately retreated back, and glanced at the hand that was severely deformed after coming into contact with Taki's armor.
"Brat, I'll let you attack at will for one minute. After one minute, if you make any scratches on my armor, I will let you leave this place alive."
"If not… hahahaha…"
Seeing Taki laugh loudly, Lathel remained silent.
Suddenly, Lathel flicked his hand, and his broken hand quickly recovered as if nothing had ever happened.
"Hmm?!" Taki frowned upon seeing that.
"Careful." Haya stood far away and shouted: "There's something very strange about that young man. He's using a Beast King's skills while he's still human."
"Huh! What if he is using a Beast King's skill? Wait until he can break my armor, hahahaha..." Taki laughed contemptuously.
At this moment, Lathel reached out towards the cauldron. Immediately afterwards, the cauldron suddenly shook violently and flew towards Lathel.
Lizaru frowned at this moment, as he said softly: "Swordary, prepare to fight."
"Hmm? Don't you trust Taki?" Swordary asked strangely.
"Akko was defeated probably because she was stupid, but that boy was very strange."
Hearing Lizaru's words, Swordary also nodded, and tightly grasped the sword hanging on his waist, as he prepared to fight at any time.
Taki glanced back.
He didn't care how powerful Lathel was right now, he just felt like he was being humiliated by Swordary.
"Swordary, do you think I will lose?" Taki's voice was filled with coldness.
Swordary frowned: "I'm just preparing for the worst."
"Huh! You think I…"
Before Taki could finish speaking, Lathel rushed over with Cauldron. The Cauldron in his hand at this moment was like a giant dumbbell with a diameter of more than two meters.
Lathel held Cauldron's handle, and swung it over Taki's head.
Taki smiled disdainfully: "Do you want to sneak attack me? Hahaha… even if you sneak attack me, the result will not change, my armor…"
BAM!
Before the words could finish, Cauldron collided with Taki. The sound of metal colliding rang out, and an unexpected outcome happened.
Taki's armor looked like it was made of glass, as it was immediately smashed into countless pieces.
The cauldron even collided with his real body inside the armor.
"Hck!" Taki spat out fresh blood, his entire body was almost crushed, his ribs shattered, and pierced his internal organs.
Even now, Taki still couldn't believe that the old cauldron could break his armor, his pride and also his arrogance.
"AA!!!" Taki screamed miserably, as his body flew backwards.
"Haya, rescue Taki first." Swordary hurriedly said, then he drew his sword and rushed towards Lathel.
Swordary moved quickly, and in just a blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Lathel.
He swung his sword and slashed down. The blinding sword light carried destructive power as it descended on Lathel's head.
Lathel had no time to dodge and he could only swing the Cauldron up to defend himself.
"Oy! Oy! Oy! I am not your weapon." the cauldron screamed in despair.
Lathel of course did not listen to what it said, he used the cauldron as a shield to block Swordary's sword.
CHENG!
Swordary's blade collided with the Cauldron, and the sound of metal colliding resounded.
The sword light was like a beam of light, it passed through the cauldron and Lathel and shot straight towards Lathel's back, cutting a trench more than a hundred meters long on the ground.
Swordary suddenly frowned, he jumped back, and kept a distance of more than five meters from Lathel.
His hand holding the sword trembled violently in pain, and the blade also had countless cracks as if it was about to break into countless pieces.
'Impossible! What the hell is that cauldron made from? Why is it so hard?'
'My sword can easily cut through Taki's armor, this sword should at least be able to confront that cauldron, why is my sword cracking?'
Swordary looked towards the cauldron that Lathel was holding. Even though it was just an ugly old black cauldron, after colliding with Swordary's sword, it was still normal, and there weren't even any scratches on the cauldron.
Lathel looked different this time, a sword slash extending from his left shoulder blade to his right hip appeared on his body, and blood gushed out of it like a stream.
Swordary saw this and breathed a sigh of relief: "At least that kid still failed."
"GRAO!"
Lathel suddenly screamed like a monster, startling Swordary: "What the hell?"
Lathel's wound did not heal, but the thunder surrounding his body seemed to become stronger.
Countless lightning bolts shot out around, causing countless deafening explosions.
Lathel gritted his teeth, his hands clenched tightly, making a horrifying "cack cack" sound from the bones.
