Chapter 161: Chapter 154: Disaster to the East (Part 1)Lu Hongâs silhouette flickered continuously amid the flames, wherever his gaze landed, the blood-stained hands stretching out from ghastly faces would kill the enemy on the spot. Numerous souls perished under Lu Hongâs Bloodthirst Skill as he ascended the mountain.
Similarly, during the constant
"Speak, where is old Hank?"
"Will you not kill me if I tell you?" the Mage asked in terror, honestly not wanting to die.
Only after receiving a confirmation from Lu Hong did he relax and say, "Ten minutes ago, I received a report; Hank from the Thunder Clan is being driven to the summit."
The summit, huh? Lu Hong looked up at the fiery peak of the mountain, a place far beyond his expectations. The fire there burned most intensely, making the mountaintop a blazing furnace, consuming all life that approached it.
Boom!
Lu Hong dropped the Mage and dashed towards the mountain summit.
The Mage watched his back helplessly, relieved, knowing he had to immediately report to the three lords. If they did not intervene, there was a real chance Hank could be rescued, which would infuriate the elders and incur severe penalties.
"Ah, isnât this Lord Lin? Shouldnât you be serving the three lords right now? How come you are here?" Pat emerged from nowhere, approaching the Mage with an eager face.
"Are you... Pat?" It took the Mage a while to recognize him, as he wasnât particularly well-known in the army.
"Yes, yes, yes, Lord Lin, you still remember me. What brings you here?" Pat helped the Mage up, asking, "Did something happen to you, Lord Lin?"
The Mage nodded, "Somehow, a terrifying strongman appeared here, and I need to report to the three lords immediately..."
Before he could finish, the Mage felt a sharp pain in his back. "You..."
"Sorry, your position is just too crucial. If you donât die, the message would spread too quickly, I had no other choice," Pat said casually. Then, flipping his dagger, he thoroughly mashed the Mageâs heart, tossed the body into the fire, and followed Lu Hong.
As Lu Hong assaulted the summit, he slew countless soldiers along the way. The blood-red ghostly face behind him grew larger and larger. Even from the base of the mountain, one could see a bizarre shadow of blood dancing wildly in the flames.
At this time, the three powerful members of the Gold family were still drinking and chatting, completely unaware of the battle situation on the mountain.
Fortunately, the guards at the base finally reported what they saw to them.
"A blood ghost?" The Third Transition Beast King slammed down his liquor bowl, stared coldly at the kneeling soldier beside him, and said, "Is it that old man drank too much, or are you hallucinating?"
Saying so, the Beast King stepped out of the tent. The dancing blood shadow instantly sobered him up most of the wayâany fool could tell something had changed on the mountain. "Not good!"
The Beast King roared, and a tenth-level giant scorpion burst from the ground.
"Follow me to the mountain!" The Beast King jumped on the scorpionâs back and disappeared into the night.
As for the other two Third Transition strongmen who stepped out of the tent, they also looked solemn, but did not follow.
"Iâll search the left side."
"Then Iâll search the right side."
The two Third Transition strongmen suspected the Empire had sent a rescue team, hoping to catch the reinforcements at the base of the mountain.
The closer to the summit, the higher the temperature. Lu Hong easily tore through the besieging soldiers, finally spotting old Hank kneeling on the ground among the enemy ranks.
The blood-red arm swept across the field; no skill could withstand its power. Lu Hong approached old Hank and said softly, "I am late."
Old Hank forcefully opened his blood-blurred eyes, "Is that you, kid?"
"Itâs me, Iâm here to get you out."
"You shouldnât have come here," old Hank collapsed into Lu Hongâs arms, "they have too many people."
"Donât worry, I definitely wonât let you die," Lu Hong laughed aloud. "Pat, come out!"
"Hey, hey, hey, Iâm here." Pat caught up just in time, looking around the empty surroundings, a chill spreading in his heart. This place should have been swarming with Gold family soldiers.
Pat looked up at the ghostly face behind Lu Hong. How many lives had this thing devoured?!
"Take him away safely." Lu Hong handed old Hank over to Pat, then told old Hank, "This is our man, rest well with him, and Iâll treat you to a drink another day."
"Hahaha, sure, cough, cough..." old Hank laughed, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.
"Take the other side down the mountain," Lu Hong instructed as he pointed behind him. "Powerful enemies are on their way."
"Okay." Pat nodded, sensing the Third Transition strongmen had noticed something unusual on the mountain. "Be careful, the leaders of the army this time are the Beast King, the Dream Master, and the Grand Sin Bishop."
"The Dream Master..." Lu Hong realized why old Hank had ended up in such dire straits; he must have fallen for the opponentâs Illusion Technique.
As for the Grand Sin Bishop, that was the Priestâs Third Transition advancement, skilled in Divine Punishmentâif proficient in divine spells, not to be underestimated.
Soon after Pat left, a hundred-meter-long giant scorpion rushed up to Lu Hong and stopped.
The Third Transition Beast King glared at Lu Hong, "Where are the soldiers of the Gold family?" On his way, except for the mountain fire, he saw nothing; aside from the twenty thousand troops guarding the base, the entire fifty thousand soldiers that entered the mountain had vanished without a trace.
Lu Hong pointed at the thousand-foot ghostly face behind him and smiled, "Theyâre all in here!"
The Beast Kingâs face immediately soured, "You deserve to die!"
Lu Hong roared, unable to suppress the last shred of his sanity anymore, plunging into madness. The once subsiding fires of East Look Mountain flared up again into towering blood-red flames.
