Chapter 885: Rampage Warrior
Chapter 885: Rampage Warrior
"Die!"
A terrifying killing desire manifested on the Law Steel Sword.
The human's agitated mind, under the influence of the Hedonist's Art, transformed into an indestructible blade.
Its power was so immense that it even severed the terrifying aura emanating from the Rampage Warrior.
"What the hell?" Viktor's eyebrows shot up.
With his Seventh Stage Awakened strength, he naturally could perceive that the force breaking through his Art was a Desire ability.
However, Viktor mentally went through the Awakened beings he had encountered, but even if he racked his brains, he couldn't find anyone who could match Alice.
It was worth noting that he was a Rampage Warrior! A Seventh Stage machine, Viktor had led troops into battles and had seen all sorts of Awakened beings, but among the countless Awakened beings, he still couldn't find anyone like Alice.
"Interesting..."
As the sword blade approached, Viktor's pupils constricted.
The Rampage Warrior's Strategic Vision allowed him to perceive the weak point in Alice's attack.
Without even holding a weapon, he simply waved his hand.
The Striker's destructive ability directly hit the air in front of Alice's left side.
Bang! The Maiden was stopped mid-air.
Even though the enemy before her was severely injured and not adept at solo combat, the Seventh Stage was still the Seventh Stage!
This man was by no means an ordinary opponent, especially now that he had lost his strongest weapon, the White Steel Sword, explore its potential?
Alice landed on the ground and immediately assumed a defensive stance.
But Viktor, standing before her, spoke up:
"Where did you come from, fella?"
"But to tear through my Seventh Stage Essence with a Sixth Stage Art, that's absolutely extraordinary."
"Woman, who are you?"
Alice's gray eyes were like a cold mist.
She held the Law Steel Sword horizontally in front of her:
"The one who'll kill you."
The next second, the Hand of Desire transformed into invisible shackles, imprisoning Viktor's feet.
The Rampage Warrior's legs tightened.
He struggled, but his feet wouldn't budge.
However, when faced with Alice's descending sword, his gaze became intriguing:
"Interesting, and you have a great figure too."
"Woman, you're mine."
In an instant, an even more powerful aura of terror spread across the mountaintop.
The Rampage Warrior used Fear Proclamation, turning the Maiden before him into his target for subjugation.
The real battle had just begun.
Beneath the mountaintop, the bandits controlled by Viktor also rushed over to aid their 'Sovereign'.
But the Messenger was doing his best to maintain the Rock Cage.
Even though there were powerful individuals among them, including Fifth and Sixth Stage Awakened beings, they were kept outside, and despite their weapons and Arts creating a ruckus on the rocks, the prison before them remained unmoved.
"..."
Inside the mountain.
Lindsey, who had just arrived near the escape tunnel, also sensed the spreading terror.
"Is that... Fear Proclamation?"
The teachings of his childhood teachers and his adventures as an adult gave Lindsey a profound understanding of the Warrior profession.
Unlike Defenders or Combatants, the Rampage Warrior's advancement path had distinct changes.
Before the Fifth Stage, they would respectively cultivate the Arts of Ambush, Striker, Strategic Vision, and Assault, which were similar to other Warriors, specializing in personal combat.
However, upon reaching the Fifth Stage and becoming a Commander, they would awaken a game-like aura of leadership, providing enhancements to their companions.
In the sixth stage, the Commander advances to become the Warlord.
The provided enhancement further extends to all under his command, and its effects are also amplified.
Upon reaching the seventh stage, the Rampage Warrior's skill undergoes another transformation, granting them a power known as Fear Proclamation.
Once they designate a target with this skill, whether it be human or object, the target will inherently fall under the suppression of the Rampage Warrior. Weak-willed humans may even collapse on the spot, becoming playthings for the warrior.
Lindsey: [Alice, how are you holding up? Need any help?]
Lindsey: [This is a seventh-stage Rampage Warrior. If it gets too much, just let me know, and I'll be right there.]
Alice: [I don't have time for you.]
"..."
"If she has time to reply, it means she's ready to fight."
Lindsey shrugged, always trusting his companions.
He then turned to twist the necks of several robbers guarding the escape tunnel, following the map's guidance and making his way into the tunnel.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Lindsey activated his survival module skill, beginning to block the robbers' escape route.
A few seconds later...
He returned to the tunnel entrance and turned around.
A wall, seamlessly blending with the surrounding soil, had completely sealed off the area below.
"A wall of rock, several dozen meters thick, and seamlessly integrated."
"Even a fifth-stage Awakened would have a hard time dealing with this defense in a short time."
"Okay, now it's time to save people."
Lindsey turned and headed upward.
As the leader at the summit was engaged in battle, the robbers enhanced by the Warlord's skill were all rushing upwards, wanting to aid their 'monarch.'
Unfortunately, the Messenger's skill had the battlefield firmly locked down.
Their legion's combat power would undoubtedly be formidable, but at this moment, they seemed outmatched, unable to break free in a short time.
This was reflected in Lindsey's actions within the mountain.
The number of guards inside the mountain quickly diminished.
A few who remained, upon encountering Lindsey, often couldn't last a single round, meeting their fate of having their necks snapped in an instant.
While the battle raged above, Lindsey's actions proceeded smoothly.
He fought his way to the prison holding the slaves.
"..."
"They are truly heartless."
Lindsey shook his head.
Before him was a straight tunnel, and along its sides were the prisons holding the slaves.
In the dark underground, the mad laughter and desperate cries intermingled, giving the place an air of a chaotic and upside-down hell.
Atmospheric Sense probed deeper.
In each prison, there were no adult men or elders.
Most of the women and children were barely clothed, their faces filled with despair, some reduced to senseless laughter or driven to madness by torture.
Bored to the extreme, they resorted to self-harm for release.
Amidst this chaotic and heart-wrenching scene, Lindsey's Atmospheric Sense captured faint words of comfort and encouragement from the depths:
"Hold on!"
"Since they've invaded our bodies, there's still a glimmer of hope."
"Everyone, hold on!"
"It's not time to give up hope yet."
"Don't bite yourself. If you're hungry, eat this first. This food is something I secretly kept, and it's still clean..."
