Chapter 218 Battle Against the Black-Robed Man
"What was that just now?" the system asked, puzzled.
"My trump card!" Tang Doudou said with a smile.
After the group had killed the remaining monsters, they arrived.
"Not bad!" Dongfang Xu looked at Tang Doudou with approval.
After resting for a while, Tang Doudou felt much better and her head felt more comfortable.
"This monster is incredibly powerful!" Tang Doudou exclaimed.
“In the past, these would have been the last to appear, but I don’t know why they’ve come out so early this year. Maybe there’s something even bigger inside!” Dongfang Xu said thoughtfully.
This one behemoth caused chaos among the crowd; what if it were an even more powerful being?
The group looked at each other, unsure of what to do.
"We must cooperate! We must leverage everyone's strengths so that we have a chance of winning against a strong opponent!" Dongfang Xu said.
Everyone nodded.
Over the next two days, the group worked together to fight, and they became more familiar with each other.
Lin Yun, in particular, is fast and perfect for launching surprise attacks.
For a while afterward, no more giant monsters appeared, but this was just the calm before the storm.
Nobody knows what will be on the show next!
Dongfang Xu contacted others, and the results were all similar. The Shangguan family was having a relatively tough time, while the other two families were doing alright.
"We only have a month here, and seventeen days have already passed. The remaining time will likely be difficult, but if we can get through it, we should reap great rewards. Fortune has always been found in danger, so everyone, stay alert and prepare!" Dongfang Xu said to the group.
Everyone nodded.
On the twentieth day, another enormous monster appeared. The group worked together and defeated it.
There are ten days left!
The city fell completely silent, like a ghost town.
The days are getting increasingly tense. If nothing unexpected happens, the shadowy figure directing things from the shadows will soon reveal their true colors.
In the past few days, everyone's teamwork has become more and more proficient, and they are able to quickly deal with even giant beasts.
On the fifth day, the peace was broken once again.
Behind countless monstrous figures, a figure in black robes slowly emerged, exuding a chilling aura.
The crowd looked at the dark mass of demonic beasts, then at the man in black, their expressions serious. The appearance of a dark hand behind them signified the start of the final battle.
Dongfang Xu and his two companions were responsible for dealing with the demonic beasts, while Tang Doudou and Lin Yun were responsible for holding off the man in black robes.
Tang Doudou made the first move, shooting a burst of spiritual energy towards the man in black. However, the man in black simply waved his sleeve, and the attack vanished without a trace.
"Hmph, a mere trick," the man in black said disdainfully.
At this moment, Lin Yun silently circled behind the man in black robes, preparing to launch a surprise attack. But the man in black robes seemed to have eyes in the back of his head, and struck back, sending Lin Yun flying.
"You think you can stop me?" The man in black robes sneered, forming hand seals. Instantly, the surrounding demonic beasts became even more frenzied, charging madly towards Dongfang Xu and the others.
Tang Doudou activated the Wind and Cloud Technique and charged at the black-robed man again. The black-robed man caught Tang Doudou's attack, and Tang Doudou retreated repeatedly.
No, it seems I'll have to use runes!
Taking advantage of the moment when Lin Yun was dragging the man in black robes, Tang Doudou quickly searched for runes and soon found one.
Tang Doudou formed hand seals, and the runes rapidly expanded in the air, transforming into chains that wrapped around the man in black. The man in black was terrified and hurriedly tried to dodge.
At that moment, Lin Yun, despite his injuries, charged forward again and engaged in close combat with the man in black robes.
Meanwhile, Dongfang Xu gradually stabilized the monsters' offensive and arrived to provide support. With the group surrounding him, the man in black robes gradually found himself at a disadvantage.
Seeing that things were going badly, the man in black robes suddenly took out a black bead and crushed it. A powerful dark force erupted, blasting everyone away.
"I'll let you go for now, but you'll pay for this next time!" the man in black robes said, before disappearing in a flash.
Without the black-robed man's control, the monsters were thrown into chaos and easily wiped out by the group.
Although they had temporarily repelled the man in black, everyone knew that the crisis was not over.
Moreover, after this battle, everyone realized that their strength still needed improvement. In the days that followed, while remaining vigilant against the black-robed men's potential recurrence, they also seized every opportunity to train, hoping to be fully prepared before the final deadline.
