Lu Chen gazed at Vantoros, who had been incredibly fierce just moments ago but was now humbly begging.
The corners of his mouth lifted slightly,
forming a cold smile.
"Not that bad?"
"I said you are an Evil Being,"
"Then you are!"
With that said,
Lu Chen's figure moved abruptly,
like a cheetah hunting its prey, accelerating towards Vantoros.
He flipped his right palm,
and the pitch-black battle blade instantly flashed, accompanied by the sound of air being torn apart, and chopped down fiercely.
"Swish—!"
The blade edge was like a dragon emerging from the sea, sharp and imposing, cutting through the air and arriving before Vantoros in an instant.
The latter's eyes suddenly narrowed,
feeling an incomparably sharp wind pressure coming towards him, and the scent of death was almost within reach.
Driven by instinct, Vantoros knew he couldn't take this blow head-on.
"Bastard—!"
Vantoros no longer dared to be careless in the slightest,
roaring, he quickly crossed his arms in front of him, attempting to block.
However,
under the absolute suppression law of the Overseer against Evil Beings,
the pitch-black battle blade was like a divine weapon that could cut through iron like mud,
easily tearing through Vantoros's proud defense.
"Crack—!"
Accompanied by a crisp and horrifying snapping sound,
Vantoros's thick arms were actually severed at the root by the blade edge,
flying into the air,
and blood gushed out like a wild horse that had broken free of its reins.
"My hands... This... Impossible!!!"
Vantoros's face was filled with disbelief,
He clearly remembered that Lu Chen's previous attacks hadn't been this sharp,
Why had he suddenly become so unstoppable in an instant?
However,
even a cornered rabbit will bite!
At this moment, Vantoros understood,
Begging for mercy was no longer of any use.
Only by fighting with his life,
Could he hope to seize a glimmer of survival in front of this terrifying humanoid creature.
Thinking of this,
Vantoros's eyes were bloodshot, filled with madness,
"Overseer, you forced me to do this!"
Vantoros roared,
the giant mouth on his abdomen suddenly split open,
opening wide with a horrifying arc, as if to devour everything that stood in its way.
"As long as I eat you, I can gain unparalleled benefits!!!"
Vantoros's voice was filled with hysterical madness,
Inside the giant mouth,
a dark purple energy vortex spun wildly,
with astonishing suction,
The surrounding air seemed to be pulled by this force, forming a distorted storm.
(C-rank Skill - Gluttonous Devour!)
At the same time, Vantoros's B-rank talent - Steel Bone was fully activated.
Facing Vantoros's desperate attack,
Lu Chen just sneered,
"It's futile."
After speaking, his figure moved abruptly,
"Break! Wind!"
Lu Chen let out a low roar, gathering all his strength in his right arm,
the Heart-Corroding Blade was instantly enveloped by a powerful force,
The blade body trembled, emitting waves of buzzing sounds.
Immediately after,
He swung his blade fiercely,
His speed was so fast it almost surpassed visual perception.
A streak of dark black blade light cut across the sky,
bringing with it a fierce gale. Wherever it passed, space seemed to be split open.
"Clang—!"
Accompanied by a crisp metallic symphony,
the Heart-Corroding Blade seemed to tear through the barrier of space, flashing past Vantoros's astonished eyes at a speed that couldn't be caught by the naked eye.
Following that was a chilling silence,
Followed by a shocking scene,
Vantoros's massive body was cleanly cut in half by this one strike,
Dark red blood sprayed out like a waterfall, staining the surrounding air.
His giant mouth hadn't had time to close, and the madness and unwillingness in his eyes were forever frozen in that moment.
Lu Chen retracted his blade,
The black blade returned to its sheath,
His movements were smooth and elegant, as if that earth-shattering blow just now was merely a normal swing during daily training.
He stood as before, his clothes fluttering,
An inviolable aura surrounded him,
As if everything that had just happened was merely an insignificant interlude.
At this moment,
Lu Chen's figure was elongated by the setting sun's afterglow, appearing particularly solitary and powerful.

Terrifying life energy surged like a tide into the bodies of Lu Chen and Tuan Zi.
A massive 320,000 points of life energy,
caused Lu Chen and Tuan Zi,
one person and one beast, to each soar by two levels,
The wave of evolution swept through their entire bodies, bringing unprecedented comfort.
Lu Chen suddenly spread his arms,
and let out a long howl towards the sky,
"Awesome—!"
Little dumpling followed suit,
raising its head and howling loudly in the backpack,
"Oooo~~~!"
Having leveled up two levels, Little dumpling was extremely comfortable.
"No... He just instantly killed him???"
Jack beside him was dumbfounded.
No,
I know the Captain is an Overseer and is very powerful,
But,
He can't be *this* powerful, can he?
That dead fatty was a Level 12 Boss with B-rank Constitution talent,
He could retreat unscathed even under the siege of a thousand Evolutionists of the same level,
He was definitely the Great Demon King of the Newbie Sea Area!
Such an existence,
The Captain just instantly killed him with a single, smooth strike?
You know, the Captain was just Level 7!
A Level 7 instantly killing a Level 12 Constitution-specialized Boss with one strike,
Even for an Overseer,
That should be very difficult to do, right?
Thinking of this,
Jack stared blankly at Lu Chen,
with a strange light flickering in his eyes.
Even within the terrifying group of Overseers,
The Captain's talent and temperament are probably outstanding!
Hehe,
I, Jack, truly have good foresight,
I saw at a glance that the Captain was no ordinary person!
...
Lu Chen, who was enjoying the pleasure of leveling up, suddenly had a stern expression.
Hundreds of Winged People had been circling in the sky for a long time, and now they suddenly swooped down towards Lu Chen.
Lu Chen frowned slightly,
instantly condensed dozens of bone spears,
They surrounded him, emanating a chilling coldness.
"Seeking death!"
Lu Chen let out a cold shout, flicking his fingers. The bone spears instantly transformed into a rain of arrows, whistling as they shot towards the Winged People.
However,
Just as the bone spears were about to hit the Winged People, they suddenly stopped in the air.
Lu Chen raised an eyebrow, his gaze sharp as he scanned these rapidly approaching Winged People.
These Winged People did not attack,
nor did they dodge,
Instead, they all knelt down before Lu Chen, their postures devout.
If Lu Chen hadn't stopped the bone spear attack in time, this volley would have been enough to reduce the number of Winged People before him by a third.
The actions of the Winged People caused a sense of doubt to surge in Lu Chen's heart.
He gazed at the kneeling Winged People, waiting for an answer.
