Chapter 253: Chapter 203: Entering the City (The internet is finally fixed, so sad)_1
Upon hearing Duanmu Huai speak, the sleazy man visibly flinched.
“But, but…”
“I said, open the gate.”
“Okay, okay.”
Perhaps sensing the terrifying aura emanating from Duanmu Huai, the man swallowed hard and nodded.
“I respect your choice. If you wish to enter through the front gate, I would yell to have it opened. But consider this, is it really a good idea? I advise you to reconsider…”
However, before the gatekeeper could finish his sentence, Duanmu Huai reached out and grabbed him by the neck, lifting him off the ground.
“I said……open the gate!”
“Alright, alright, I get it……If a man is determined to et his end, truly, no one could stop him……”
At these words, the gatekeeper took a deep breath, and then began to yell.
“Open the gate! Open the gate quickly!!”
“BOOM BOOM BOOM…”
With the gatekeeper’s voice falling, a deep rumbling sound ca from the outside. Duanmu Huai shot the gatekeeper an icy glance, casually tossed him aside, and strode out the gate. At this mont, the city gate previously sealed by iron bars was completely open, and Duanmu Huai could soon see the Crossbow Cannon platform on the high platform ahead, along with the soldiers stationed behind it.
“Hmph!”
Unlike before, Duanmu Huai didn’t ignore them this ti. He snorted coldly and, gripping his War Hamr tightly, he stord through the castle’s entrance and charged straight ahead!
“BANG BANG BANG!!”
Shortly after, a flurry of Crossbow Arrows flew towards him, hitting his Power Armor without causing him any harm. He leaped into the air, raising high his Thundering Hamr, and forcefully smashed it down!
“BOOM!!!”
All at once, lightning sparked and thunder roared, the explosive shockwaves from the attack incinerating the soldiers manning the Crossbow Cannon into ashes.
At this point, soldiers behind the barrier ahead had raised their weapons and launched an attack on Duanmu Huai. A hail of Crossbow Arrows shot out, but dealt no harm to Duanmu Huai. Instead, he charged directly toward the onslaught, Smash his War Hamr forcefully, instantly turning the barricades and barriers in front of him into rubble. The soldiers who had hidden behind the barriers were blown away by the ferocious gusts, screaming as they were flung into the distance, before they fell silent.
“ROAR—————!!”
However, it was far from over. Simultaneously, a massive creature resembling a lion sprang out of the woods to Duanmu Huai’s left amid a roar. Tied to its right front paw was a Sharp Blade. The beast lunged at Duanmu Huai as swiftly as a storm, opening its big wide bloodstained maw, full of sharp teeth, ready to tear into Duanmu Huai.
“Seeking death!!”
At the sa mont, Duanmu Huai spun around. He roared, thrusting his Thunder Warhamr forward straight into the monster’s gullet. Duanmu Huai then grabbed the long handle of his Thunder Warhamr, hoisted it high in the air, and slamd it hard onto the ground!
“BOOM!!”
The lion, its mouth jamd open, slamd onto the ground with a heavy thud. Duanmu Huai then took big strides forward and placed his foot on the lion’s head. With a “snap”, he crushed the lion’s skull under his foot. Its body trembled violently, then, like the other corpses, turned into ashes and vanished into thin air.
“Clap clap clap……”
At this mont, a burst of applause echoed from behind Duanmu Huai.
“Well done. I’ve seen nurous warriors, but never one like you.”
Duanmu Huai turned his head upon hearing the voice, only to see a mysterious man standing behind him, his face almost completely covered under the wide brim of a long hat.
“Who are you?”
“Ah, greetings, brave and mighty warrior.”
The man nodded at Duanmu Huai with a cordial smile.
“I am Roger, a magician. I ca to this city in search of sothing……By the way, why are you here in Stonewell City? You should know that the people in this city hunt Blighters to use as ‘limb attachnts’ for sacrifices. Ordinarily, nobody would co here willingly……”
“Do you know how to access that tower?”
Duanmu Huai glanced at the magician nad Roger, then pointed to a high tower nearby. That was the very place they had landed before. Their party had been scattered as a result of violating a certain “prohibition”. So, Duanmu Huai also wanted to uncover the proper way to enter the tower.
“That tower………”
Following the direction of Duanmu Huai’s finger, Roger looked at the high tower and had a sudden realization.
“I see, you’re here to win the Great Rune by challenging Gerrick…… so, you can see the guidance of the blessing?”
“I’m not sure what you’re talking about.”
Duanmu Huai shook his head.
“Anyway, what should I do if I want to enter that tower?”
“You must strike down and kill Lord Gerrick and obtain his Great Rune, then you can receive its power in the God-granted Tower……However, it’s been a long ti since a blessed Blighter has appeared.”
