Chapter 17: Eliminate!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

A smile appeared on Lin Bai’s lips.

So that was how it was!

The Ghost Priest’s strongest trump card had now become a gift for Lin Bai.

After all, the juice of the Witch-Hunter Vine was exactly what he had dreamed of!

[Spirit of Nature: Activated!]

Lin Bai activated the Spirit of Nature. Immediately, the entire nature resonated with him.

He used this to sense the surrounding Weakening Spirit Essence and absorbed it bit by bit.

It had to be said that this seemingly useless Spirit of Nature could play a certain role in any situation. Every time Lin Bai needed something, it would help Lin Bai like a panacea.

Just like this, the Weakening Spirit Essence in this area was actually cleaned up by him.

The sailor on the Ice Cabin was dumbfounded and had no idea what was going on. He only felt that the powerlessness from the Weakening Spirit Essence seemed to be slowly dissipating.

The other sailors also looked at one another.

Could it be that the Weakening Spirit Essence was ineffective when diluted with water?

The Ghost Priest also sensed that something was wrong. Why did the originally unsteady sailors suddenly become energetic?

This time, both sides were kept completely in the dark. Only Lin Bai was secretly delighted as he knew what was happening. He was just short of thanking the Ghost Priest for the Weakening Spirit Essence.

Meanwhile, the Ghost Priest was a smart person and quickly saw through the reason for this.

“I’ve underestimated you.” The Ghost Priest stared at Lin Bai eerily, roughly guessing what he was up to.

He could sense a powerful ripple from the liquid within Lin Bai.

Lin Bai’s expression was rather complicated. On the one hand, he had unsealed his black magic. Thus, he now had another trump card to use against the Ghost Priest.

However, on the other hand, even so, he was not confident when fighting the Ghost Priest head-on.

“I, the Ghost Priest, have a habit of removing the thorn in my side first,” said the Ghost Priest. Then, he took out a small porcelain bottle from the right sleeve of his robe and gently opened the stopper.

A foul smell filled the air.

“That’s why I decided to get rid of you first in case something happens.”

“This is my trump card, the Six-Eyed Spider Venom.”

“I’ve already communicated with it through my consciousness. I can control its form and movements.”

As Gui Mu spoke, he poured out a black viscous liquid. Then, with a flip of his palm, the viscous object floated in the air before slowly transforming into the appearance of a spider.

The spider actually moved like a living creature.

“Go on,” said the Ghost Priest softly. His voice was strange and terrifying.

At this moment, Xue Xiao had already lost his ability to speak. The threatening feeling that the venomous spider gave off had already made him lose his mind.

As for Su Ya, she also looked nervously at Lin Bai, wondering if he could successfully deal with this situation.

The venomous spider pounced at Lin Bai and bit into his chest!

“Ah!”

Lin Bai’s heart immediately felt a violent pain.

[Spirit of Nature, open your domain!]

Lin Bai propped himself up and basically used up all his vitality, expanding the Spirit of Nature to the limit of his abilities!

However, the Spirit of Nature could only exist at its fullest potential for five seconds.

Lin Bai wanted to use these five seconds to disperse the venom!

After all, venom was considered a natural attribute. Since it was a natural attribute, he could more or less control it.

However, expelling the venom in five seconds would undoubtedly determine the difference between life and death.

“One, two, three, four, five…”

Lin Bai thought to himself. At the same time, he frantically chased the spider venom out of his body.

Everyone watched Lin Bai with bated breath. From the fact that the Ghost Priest was willing to attack Lin Bai, they knew that Lin Bai was not that simple…

He might even be the savior of everyone present!

This was on the premise that he could survive this attack…

Just as everyone waited anxiously, Lin Bai opened his eyes under the Ghost Priest’s cold gaze.

“Is this… your trump card?”

Lin Bai exhaled and looked at the Ghost Priest provocatively.

The veins on the Ghost Priest’s forehead twitched.

“You only know how to neutralize poison and defend yourself, but don’t know how to attack. How can you defeat me?” The Ghost Priest still stubbornly belittled Lin Bai.

“When did I tell you that I don’t know how to attack?” Lin Bai asked frivolously.

“Avada Kedavra!”

Almost in an instant, Lin Bai drew his wand. The tip of the wand shook, and a black light shot out.

The Ghost Priest’s pupils dilated with fear.

He smelled absolute danger.

It was the threat of death.

Boom!

The black light directly penetrated the Ghost Priest’s chest. Then, the Ghost Priest immediately fell back like a marionette with its strings cut. His eyes no longer had any color.

“?!”

Everyone was stunned.

Was the Ghost Priest… dead?

Was he… killed by a newcomer who had not passed the Hunter Elementary Test?

All of this was like an irrelevant, strange dream.

Xue Xiao looked at Lin Bai’s back and was extremely stunned.

Wasn’t his Class only at the C-Grade?!

Xue Xiao had completely forgotten that the so-called C-Grade Class was just his guess.

As for Su Ya, the stone in her heart fell.

As expected, he had never disappointed her.

Meanwhile, everyone present had different emotions.

Since the pirates had lost their leader, the sailors of the Ice Cabin quickly regrouped and killed the pirates.

This extermination had completely erupted with the death of the Ghost Priest as the fuse.

The pirates were completely wiped out, while the Ice Cabin ship did not suffer any casualties.

After the annihilation ended, Sol looked for Lin Bai and called him into the captain’s room.

As soon as Sol spoke, he thanked Lin Bai profusely, causing Lin Bai to blush in embarrassment.

After almost five minutes of thanking Lin Bai, Sol cut to the chase.

“Not only did you complete this mission, you also completed it too beautifully!”

“According to the original rules, I should give you the real location of the Hunter Elementary Test…”

Lin Bai felt that there was something wrong with Sol’s words and began to feel uneasy.

What did he mean by that?!

Did he mean that Sol would not give him the real location?!

“…But now, I’ve decided to pilot the Ice Cabin and personally send you to the location of the Hunter Elementary Test.”

!!

Lin Bai was stunned.

What right did he have to allow the entire Ice Cabin to send him off!

“However, you still have the escort mission. I’m afraid…”

Sol waved his hand and interrupted Lin Bai, “At most, we can just speed up in the future. However, we can’t return this favor. This is the only way we can think of to thank you, Mr. Lin.”

He even changed how he addressed Lin Bai to a respectful address like Mr. Lin.

Lin Bai no longer declined. He would do as he was told.

How grand! Lin Bai began to feel some joy.

How flashy would it be for the entire Ice Cabin to escort him and Su Ya to the location of the Hunter Elementary Test?

As a result, he was looking forward to it.

He was looking forward to the arrival of tomorrow!
