Chapter 409: Scene 122 Decisive Battle (10) (Part 3)_2

However, Ben did not feel nervous. He took a deep breath first, then reached into his clothes and took out a ruby. He clutched the ruby tightly in his hand and silently counted down in his mind——

Ten, nine, eight…

The deafening sound of breaking trees approached very quickly, as if it had been just a phantom lingering in his hearing a mont ago, but now it beca real.

Five, four, three…

It’s coming. Ben squeezed the gemstone between his index finger and thumb with his middle finger, positioning it in the center of what the witches called the Magic Power Triangle Area. Then he silently recited the activation words in his mind. The ruby flashed with a red light, and everything within tens of ters around him fell into an utter silence—wind, rustling leaves, even heartbeat, breath, and the pulsation of his bloodline—all sounds vanished.

Ben saw a faint green number appear on his retina: 6/10.

The Earth Envoy, Eckn, stopped instantly. This giant insect-like creature couldn’t help but look around in confusion but soon realized it had completely lost the faint heartbeat it had been tracking. However, just as its simple brain structure hesitated whether to turn back, a graceful Soul White Deer suddenly appeared in its sight from the forest.

Goodness, this creature dared to calmly stroll in front of it; to Eckn, who was in a frenzy state, it was sheer provocation. It roared deeply and imdiately charged in that direction. Unfortunately, the Soul White Deer controlled by Ben was just a phantom; from an optical perspective, it could be as fast and agile as needed, thus leaving the Earth Envoy utterly helpless as it was tricked.

Ben hid under an old tree, holding the statue of the Soul White Deer, teasing the previously terrifying enemy as if playing a ga. When he peeked and saw this scene, he couldn’t help but chuckle silently within the range of the Silence Technique—of course, it should be called a voiceless chuckle. Since each Silence Technique lasted 5 minutes, the remaining 6 uses would allow him to remain worry-free for thirty minutes. Adding the ten minutes granted by the Platinum War Steed, he had a total of forty minutes secured for Nanis.

Moreover, even if the Silence Technique ran out, he could still use the Unyielding Talent to cut off his heartbeat and breath for another five minutes of unkillable ti, and then bandage himself for another five minutes. In theory, fifty minutes should be enough for Silver Elf to arrive, even if they had to crawl.

He certainly wouldn’t gamble with his own life. Without a certain assurance, Ben wouldn’t easily place himself as a stake.

As ti slipped by——

However, just as Ben prepared to cast the Silence Technique for the fourth ti, he suddenly felt a slight throb in his heart. Because at that mont, he noticed Eckn had suddenly stopped. Its attention was no longer on the provoking white stag, and the monster let out a series of low growling noises from its throat—Ben recognized that sound.

It was a warning.

Soone is coming.

Who?

Nanis and the others?

Countless thoughts flashed through Ben’s mind, but he dared not delay and imdiately cast the fourth Silence Technique. The remaining count on the ruby instantly beca three. However, he quickly realized sothing was wrong because the monster’s gaze wasn’t directed to the north. Instead, it was staring straight in his direction.

Ben’s heart tightened, “What’s happening?” he couldn’t help but ask himself. But there shouldn’t be any problem; he went over his actions in his head repeatedly but found no mistakes.

Yet at that very mont——

‘Crash’——Ben suddenly saw the dense bushes in front of him parted by soone, revealing a familiar face from the back. It was a young man, no, to be precise, should be said the young man Ben had seen in Chablis Town. He was also the centerpiece of this series of events.

Of course, Ben rembered his na, Ecco. Ecco Lantoniyan Ophelia, and even his identity was clear: the only son of Duke Lune and future inheritor of Lantoniyan Duchy.

But none of that mattered now.

What mattered was Ecco’s sudden appearance making the forest scene bizarre. In fact, Ecco was directly opposite Ben——he could clearly see Ben hiding behind the tree and the terrifying monster on the other side of the old tree. At the sa ti, Ben could see Ecco but couldn’t tell Eckn’s reaction, but he could guess.

As he suspected, the Earth Envoy turned its head using its fourteen thousand compound eyes to stare at this uninvited guest, unaware there was another target behind the tree.

Faced with such a scene, the young man nad Ecco was slightly stunned. His eyes first fell on the rock armor surrounding Eckn and its petrified forelimbs, evident elental attributes indicating it had awakened an elent. The young man turned pale but then looked back at Ben, who was staring complexly at him.

At that mont, Ben felt like he wanted to strangle him, realizing that no matter how well he planned, he couldn’t have predicted such an unexpected appearance in the wilderness.

Ecco hesitated for a mont and then returned his gaze to the monster. He placed a hand on his sword and shouted, “Hey, you big guy, what? Want to fight ?” With those words, he drew his sword and dashed in another direction——

What is happening?

Ben watched with wide eyes as the youthful Ecco bypassed his position and moved away. His vast experience allowed him to imdiately see that Ecco intended to divert the monster. All this, just for a stranger he had t only once, maybe twice. At that mont, Ben was at a loss for words, as countless thoughts converged into one single notion:

“Damn! This kid is a live Lei Feng!” (To be continued. For more chapters, please visit qidian, support the authors, and read the original works!)
