Chapter 223: 222 Heroic Spirit Guardian

“Gaaaa——!!”

Amidst its fierce howling, the colossal creature appeared between the forests and mountains, stirring up turbulent currents in the atmosphere, roaring loudly and shaking the surrounding trees to the verge of collapse, with leaves and dust swirling chaotically, an impressive display of might.

Shane and Luoqi both changed their expressions slightly as they looked at the enormous being.

It was a monster, unclear whether it was more demon or human.

It had a body like a centipede, massive in size; when it stood upright, it towered dozens of meters high, terrifying to behold.

However, its centipede-like body was limited to the lower half, while its upper half was that of a human, as if the upper body of a giant had been fused with the lower body of a centipede.

Furthermore, it had wings on its back resembling those of a dragon. In its human-shaped upper body, where the head should be, there were no eyes, nose, or ears, nor any hair—just a gaping mouth full of sharp teeth, making for an especially sinister sight.

“What kind of monster is this?”

Luoqi was deeply surprised, completely unable to recognize just what the being before her was.

Shane was surprised as well.

However, Shane’s surprise was not due to the creature’s frightening appearance, but its Level.

————Level 90.

The creature before him, the half-human half-centipede with a ferocious mouth and dragon wings, not only had a high Level of ninety but also possessed four skills: Dragon Breath, Fury, Super Strength, and Half-Physical, with all skills being at Level 8, and even its Dragon Breath skill reaching Level 9—simply inconceivable.

“How could such a strong creature be hiding in a place like this?”

Shane truly felt astonished.

“Gaaaa——!!”

The creature had already set its sights on Shane and Luoqi, and while letting out its terrifying roars, it shifted its massive body and charged toward them.

In an instant, the air was filled with flying sand and wild winds.

The mere act of running across the ground was enough for the creature to cause such commotion; it was like a train rushing forward at an astonishing speed.

And its target was none other than Shane.

“Shit!”

Shane cursed out loud.

Why is it attacking me first?

Do I look easier to bully?

You’re looking for death!

“Tinder!”

Immediately, Shane cast magic toward the rampaging creature, which resembled a speeding train.

“Boom!”

A tremendous wave of fire erupted, transforming into raging flames that exploded upon the creature’s body.

Yet…

“Gaaaa——!!”

To everyone’s amazement, the creature seemed utterly oblivious to the Explosive Flames that had detonated on it, its speed unchanged as it barreled through the firestorm, accompanied by waves of heat, charging right at Shane.

“Bang!”

The next second, the monster’s massive body collided heavily with Shane’s position, seeming to crush him completely, smashing through the ground, causing it to burst once again, eliciting vibrations and sand to fly everywhere.

“Shane!”

Not far away, Luoqi, who had witnessed this scene, couldn’t help but shout.

Her voice was immediately met with a response.

“I’m okay!”

Shane’s figure had suddenly appeared behind the monster, without even a speck of dust on him.

“Instant Movement?”

Luoqi was momentarily stunned as she saw this.

But she was mistaken.

This was not Instant Movement, but Instant Shift.

This skill, which could only be used when under attack, had been utilized by Shane.

“Almost fell for your trick.”

Shane, squinting at the monster that had burst through the ground, unsheathed the Holy Sword from his waist.

“Gaaaa——!!”

The creature immediately turned around amidst the flying sand and, seeing Shane, let out a mournful shriek.

Following, the creature spewed forth from its grimacing mouth a scorching Breath.

That was…

“Dragon Breath!?”

Luoqi’s expression changed repeatedly.

Yet, it was Shane who, having guessed the type of attack the monster would launch after it turned around, had already prepared for it.

“Buzz!”

With a spectacular surge of magic power erupting from within Shane’s body, the sealed Holy Sword in his hand suddenly trembled, bursting into a red glow.

“Ha!”

Holding the Magical Sword-enhanced Holy Sword, Shane let out a low shout and slashed at the dragon breath that assaulted him like a raging current.

“Splash!”

In the sound of tearing silk, the red Magic Blade cut through the incoming dragon breath, splitting it in two, allowing it to pass by Shane’s body on both sides and fall to the ground behind him.

“Boom!”

Accompanied by a roaring sound, the ground hit by the dragon breath was scorched into wasteland before it exploded violently.

As for Shane, he was unharmed amidst the dragon breath.

“Gaaaa——!!!”

Seeing this, the monster roared in anger.

Just then, a figure swiftly approached the monster.

It was Luoqi.

She had also drawn her Holy Sword, employing the Magical Sword Skill, causing a red Magic Blade to violently spring forth from the sword.

“Slash!”

Luoqi raised the Magic Blade high and brought it down decisively upon the half-human half-centipede creature.

“Splash!”

Without any surprise, Luoqi’s powerful Magical Sword cut through the monster’s body, splitting it in two.

But…

“Gaaaa——!!!”

The monster, severed in two, rippled like a mirage all over, then instantly knitted back together, restoring itself to its original state.

“Boom!”

The restored monster immediately breathed dragon breath at Luoqi, who was still in mid-air, emitting scorching breath that evaporated the air around it, engulfing Luoqi with terrifying heat.

The scene was enough to make any onlooker’s blood boil with rage.

Of course, Shane did not.

Because Shan had mentioned to him that she possessed a skill.

A skill that could save her life from any fatal attack.

Luoqi, enveloped in dragon breath, vibrated throughout her body, suddenly radiating a dazzling light.

Beneath the brilliance, Luoqi seemed to be enveloped in radiant flowing light, becoming a shooting star as she shot out from the scorching dragon breath and fell to the ground.

“Is that Heroic Spirit Guardian?”

Shane murmured.

————Heroic Spirit Guardian.

That was a very special skill.

Because only those who are possibly from the Royal Family or Nobles could acquire this skill.

Those of the Royal or Noble lineage would never lack one thing.

That was the loyalty of others.

Especially Royals, who historically, have had loyal heroes sacrifice their own lives to protect them, with numerous accounts of such.

If those heroes, at the moment of their death, still held a strong will to eternally guard their sovereign, their magic power would merge into the atmosphere, lingering around the sovereign or even around the bloodline descendants they wished to protect.

And if the guarded descendants showed qualities deemed worthy of recognition, that magic would become a tangible force, protecting them.

That was the special skill that could protect its users from any malice—Heroic Spirit Guardian.

Luoqi possessed such a special skill.

Thus, even without releasing the Holy Sword’s sealing, the number of people who could harm Luoqi remained exceedingly few.

This infuriated the half-human half-centipede monster greatly.

Luoqi had already landed beside Shane.

“Let’s take it on together.”

Luoqi spoke in a cold voice.

“Good.”

Shane nodded abruptly.

Both raised their Holy Swords at the same time.

Upon their bodies, magic power surged wildly.
