Chapter 738: Cheers
Chapter 738: Cheers
A deadly force blossoms on the dragonbeast's chest.
The vengeance of the flames, the allure of the Dragon's Honey, and the physical agony all converge in this moment.
All sensations vanish from the dragonbeast in an instant.
It feels as if a nail has been hammered into its chest.
The once-beating heart, a source of boundless vitality, is now pinned in place by this nail.
The protective scales that guarded its body are cleaved apart by the Righteous One's sword.
And the Dragon Hunter's Black Arrow, the ultimate bane of dragon-kind, tears through its flesh, piercing its chest.
Life rapidly drains from the massive beast.
The dragonbeast, once suspended in mid-air, loses its momentum and begins to plummet.
The ethereal flames that filled the sky start to dissipate, following the dragonbeast's descent, creating a fiery rain as they fall with it.
Only the lingering warmth in the air remains, an anomaly in this moment.
"..."
Lin Sai glances at his Hunting Notes, pinned to the dragonbeast's chest.
Confirming that another legendary beast has fallen to him, he examines the wounds on the dragonbeast's corpse before diving in without hesitation.
No way!
The Dragon Hunter's Black Arrow is not a disposable weapon but a tangible object!
With such potent attributes against dragon-kind, there's no way Lin Sai would let it fall with the enemy's corpse.
He retrieves the arrow, his body drenched in blood, and manages to salvage some hunting materials in the process.
After a few seconds, Lin Sai emerges from the corpse, stepping on it to gain some height, and then glides through the air.
Swish! The Multi-Functional Survival Gear in his equipment activates, allowing him to soar through the sky.
"Alice!" Lin Sai calls out to his companion while wiping the blood from his face.
Meanwhile, the Righteous Path girl is also falling, having been flung away by the dragonbeast earlier, her descent faster and more reckless.
But with the gear's assistance, Lin Sai can control his body more effectively in mid-air.
As he approaches Alice, he hears her shout:
"Lin Sai, turn back!"
"From our current position, we won't be able to glide back to the floating islands."
Alice states the harsh reality calmly.
The floating islands surrounding Silver City have all been manipulated by Ye Hai Ya's Essence Technique, transformed into satellites guarding the city.
During the battle with the dragonbeast, they became a vertical wall.
Lin Sai and Alice, having reached their descent limit at this height, must make a decision.
Lin Sai could turn back and glide to the floating islands with difficulty.
But if he continues to pursue the falling Alice, their reunion would seal their fate, plummeting into the void below.
"..."
Alice, falling through the sky, prepares to embrace her fate.
Below lies the Sea of Nothingness, a legendary place of no return, symbolizing the end of all things.
Yet, she is determined to fight her way back to the world, returning to the City of Law with the sword in her hand and heart.
"..."
"Lin Sai?"
But what appears before the Righteous Path girl is Lin Sai, showing no signs of turning back, continuing his reckless descent towards her.
"Foolish!"
Alice's voice is filled with anger and concern, but she can't help but trust her companion:
"What you're doing is..."
Lin Sai glides next to Alice, grabbing her.
After overcoming the varying forces of their descent, he even smiled at Alice and said, "What did you say just now? I didn't catch it."
"How could you possibly not hear me!" Alice sighed. "Lindsey, you told me about your journey through countless trials and tribulations from the world's border to reach this place..."
Lindsey interrupted Alice abruptly.
"Look at you, don't be so glum. I've got plenty of tricks up my sleeve!"
At that moment, Lindsey's gaze drifted into the distance.
"But... let's stick to the plan. Help me first."
The rushing wind of their fall whistled past their ears.
Lindsey held Alice close to his chest and continued to glide using the Multi-Functional Survival Gear's gliding ability, flying towards the faster-falling corpse of the Dragonbeast.
The Righteous One girl, held tightly in his embrace, felt a module seed attach itself to her back from behind.
"..."
Alice was momentarily taken aback but accepted the module.
—Hunting Simulation.
"What are you doing? At a time like this, you're still thinking about gathering materials?"
Realizing what was happening, Lindsey burst into laughter in mid-air.
"It's not just about gathering materials!"
"I have other tricks up my sleeve. Let's get down there first."
They soared through the lingering high temperatures in the air and grasped the falling Dragonbeast's scales.
As the beast's body died, the essence power gradually left its form.
The high temperatures alone couldn't harm Alice's body.
They held onto the scales tightly, then stepped onto the corpse, feeling the heat from below. Looking at the Seventh Stage beast they had slain together, Alice's expression was one of realization, like a little girl receiving a gift.
"Five, six-stage Awakened, killing a Seventh Stage Dragonbeast... This is truly..."
Lindsey teased from the side.
"Why are you so surprised now?"
"I didn't see you being so shocked when we jumped down together just now."
"It's different. I just had to do it!" Alice's gaze intensified as she returned to her usual self. "Some things, even if you know they're impossible, you must still do them!"
As she spoke, the Righteous One girl also collected materials from the Dragonbeast's body below her feet.
As she bent down, Alice saw an even lower scene.
The battle had caused the floating island to break apart into countless fragments that were now falling. At the bottom of her line of sight, these fragments were vanishing into the void one by one, creating ripples on the surface of the world's spatial concept.
"Not good!"
"Lindsey, get ready for impact. We're almost there."
Alice shouted a warning, but Lindsey, by her side, remained calm. He held Alice's palm and pulled out a bottle of light blue potion from his sack, placing it in the girl's hand.
【Potion: Random Teleportation Potion】
【After drinking the potion, the user will be randomly teleported to any safe landing spot within the current world. The potion guarantees a safe landing but doesn't ensure the advantages or disadvantages of the surrounding environment.】
【A rare spatial potion of moderate value.】
He had obtained three of these potions.
In the world of the Seven Seas Alliance, one bottle was given to the one-armed painter Arasson to ensure his escape from the hallucinatory dream.
As for the remaining two...
The two people before him were just the right number.
Lindsey shook the potion bottle in front of Alice, and as they were about to fall into the void, he smiled.
"Cheers!"
