Chapter 40 Escape from Death

How strong was a Grade A melee professional? His flying speed easily broke through the speed of sound, and his speed movement on the ground exceeded a hundred meters per second. This was an ordinary standard,
it did not include professionals who specialized in speed. So there’s no words to speak of for the speed of a peak Grade A professional.

At a distance of twenty to thirty meters, the mysterious energy shot out by the finger was several times faster than the speed of the bullet. Generally speaking, even Black Iron professionals could avoid bullets by
observing the movements of the gunman’s fingers and predicting the bullet’s trajectory. But the prerequisite was that the professional was much stronger than the gunmen.

And facing a Grade A gunman, even experts of the same level might not be able to capture his movements. So how could he dodge? It was like casually stepping on an ant that passed by on the ground. Faced with the
foot that blotted out the sky, fate seemed to have already been decided.

The huge increase in mental energy made Yan Chong feel that the scene in this world had slowed down a lot. The increase in agility allowed his body to keep up with his thoughts. However, only that simple and
ordinary pillar of light didn’t slow down in the slightest, and it was impossible to avoid.

Bang! A light blue barrier appeared in front of him. The light beam struck it heavily, producing a muffled sound. The barrier immediately shattered like a balloon that had been poked by a needle.
Meanwhile, the light pillar that the orc shot out did not slow down and continued to move along the original route. However, it was in that instant that Yan Chong avoided the fate of his head exploding.

Using all his strength, he twisted his neck. The beam of light brushed past the tip of Yan Chong’s nose and pierced through the wall of the library behind him, leaving a bottomless hole. A drop of blood was left on the
tip of his nose. It was not caused by the beam of light, but by the airflow that it caused.

With 11 points of Constitution, his skin could already withstand bullets. However, he could not even withstand the shockwaves from the opponent’s casual attack. The destructive power of a peak Gold Class
professional could be seen.

A tingling sensation came from his neck, and Yan Chong experienced the feeling of a stiff neck which he didn’t have in a long time. It was because he had exerted too much strength earlier, causing the muscles on his
neck to be pulled.

Before he could recover from the shock, a huge but gentle force engulfed his entire body. Yan Chong’s body was pushed backward uncontrollably and crashed into the library. He smashed through a wall inside and flew
out from the other side.

In order to protect him, Loli had pushed him out of the battlefield. Otherwise, even the slightest shockwave would be fatal to him.
He was still invisible, so Yan Chong quickly controlled the Qi in his body and used Sky Walk Technique to stabilize himself. He hid a few hundred meters away and looked at the battlefield.

It was unknown whether Loli had used some kind of rare treasure or some kind of skill, but her body seemed to be blurred as if she was covered in mosaic. However, the three peak Gold Orc experts were helpless
against her.

Their attacks all missed, as if Loli’s body had become ethereal, no longer corporeal.
Yan Chong observed carefully but did not find anything from [Reading]. He was more inclined to believe that Loli used a certain treasure. Otherwise, she would not have such a heaven-defying skill.
As for himself, how could he escape? With his current B- strength, he could only fly at high speed for 20 minutes. So where could he run to?

Loli saved his life just now. Yan Chong was still grateful to this young girl whom he had just met. Although he had always cherished his life and was more conservative, he wanted to do something for her now. However,
with his current strength, if he were to rashly help her, he would instead become her burden.

Not long after, Yan Chong noticed that the black-skinned orc, who had disguised himself as a Silver rank with the Breath Holding Technique, was looking in his direction. The corner of his mouth curled up into an evil
smile.

“Tsk!” Without thinking, Yan Chong immediately turned and ran. No, he flew at a low altitude. Flying at full speed was three to five times faster than running on the ground. However, if he flew too high, he was afraid
that he would be beaten by those big shots’ energy waves.

Even if he was fleeing, Yan Chong did not panic. Instead, he tried his best to get close to the ground and search for areas with densely packed houses. He followed the winding alley and advanced.
Although the other party was a Gold rank, Yan Chong did not think that he could fly faster than him.

For melee professionals, flying was a skill that required a lot of skill. Most professionals had only just started learning how to fly after reaching the Gold rank. After years of training, when one was at the peak of Gold
rank, they could fly with ease and display their fastest speed. Moreover, there were many Gold rank professionals who could not fly.

Soon, he passed by Kane’s blacksmith shop.

it turned out that the pits and holes created by the battle had already been filled up, but the ground was not flat limestone. Instead, there was an irregular layer of gravel on the soil. Only Sophia’s sword energy when
she broke through to the Legendary rank split the town in half and went straight into the distant mountains, forming a trench. There was already some rainwater inside. It looked like a small river.

n the distance, a pillar of black smoke rose and a faint flame appeared, as if something had happened.
“That’s right, the explosion! There was an explosion just now. It seems to have occurred near Richard’s house, where the surviving residents are.”
Yan Chong frowned and looked behind him. What made him happy and puzzled was that the Gold Orc did not follow him. Was he not fast enough? Or did he not chase after him at all?

Yan Chong felt that something was amiss. Even if his flying ability was poor, he could still fly high and look down at the ground, falling far behind. However, he seemed to have no time to think about anything else.
Regardless of whether there was any other conspiracy, the only option he had now was to flee for his life.

Even if he couldn’t escape, he would struggle for a while and never give up on healing.

Riches came from danger? F*ck riches came from danger. Previously, he had obtained a lot of XP from watching the battle. However, the level of danger back then could not be compared to now. Perhaps, he could try
to see if he could take advantage of it when the cooldown time for Transcendent Space Traverse was over.

As he thought about this, his body did not slow down at all. Instead, it became even faster. The endurance of the Grade B- Qi was obviously much higher than that of Grade C’s. Currently, Yan Chong’s entire body was
filled with energy, as though his stamina was endless.

He arrived at the southwest corner of the town. The few houses near Richard’s house had collapsed and were on fire. The corpses of many residents could be seen around them. They were the ones who were rescued
by Yan Chong and Loli.

He even activated [Absorption], and he reaped some XP. Clearly, they had just been killed.
There were also a few survivors who were hiding at the side with varying degrees of injuries.

There was no time to ask what had happened. Yan Chong planned to hide in a nearby collapsed house. After making sure that no one was following him, he would take the opportunity to enter Richard’s secret chamber
and hide until the cooldown period of the Transcendent Space Traverse ended.

But at that moment the front door of Richard’s house opened slowly from the inside and a young man stepped out..
