Starting With 3 S-Class Talents

“Vincent!”

They looked at the Mandala Snake that had been nailed to the ground and broke out in cold sweat.

If Vincent had not returned in time, Nabil would have been a corpse.

“Is everyone alright?” asked Vincent whilst looking at the corpse of the Brute Force Buffalo.

“We can still fight,” said Chris. He was still a Multi-Colored Tiger.

Vincent nodded. He then picked up Teacher Chris who was unconscious and flew into the sky.

Vincent did this four times. Finally, only Chris and Nabil were left to fight. The monsters were drawn to them because of the smell of blood.

The more monsters died, the more monsters that came by. Every monster was stronger than the one before.

Although there were no lord-tier monsters yet, there were still some monsters that were about to advance to lord-tier.

In a short span of 20 minutes, Chris had already killed eight special-class monsters. However, this number did not include the monsters that Vincent had helped to kill when he returned for them. In total, they have killed roughly 20 special-class monsters.

Chris transformed into a Giant Earth Bear. Although it was only a high-level monster, it was able to borrow power from the Earth. Moreover, its defense was very strong. This meant that it could drag out battles with monsters.

The most important thing was that it was huge. Nabil could stand on its shoulders and avoid being ambushed by other monsters.

Chris was fighting against another Giant Earth Bear. The other Giant Earth Bear was of a higher level. As such, its combat strength was naturally stronger than Chris.

Chris’s body was covered with all kinds of wounds. He was panting heavily and could no longer stand straight.

Nevertheless, he still forced himself to be alert. He could not relax as Nabil had not been rescued by Vincent.

The Giant Earth Bear looked at Chris in a teasing manner. Its attacks became more and more powerful. With each strike, Chris would be pushed back more than ten steps.

However, the Giant Earth Bear monster was confused. It was the same type of bear as Chris. Why was Chris protecting a human?

Moreover, it could also see that Chris was already at the end of his tether. Why was he still trying so hard to hold on?

The monster was not human, so it naturally could not understand what the humans were doing. Chris’s persistence seemed weak and ridiculous in its eyes.

“Nabil, hide quickly. I can’t hold on any longer. Vincent will be back soon,” said Chris.

For a battle maniac to say such words was obvious enough that he had reached his limit. He was unable to continue any further.

He planned to perish together with the Giant Earth Bear in order to buy Nabil some time. At the same time, he wanted to scare off the monsters that were rushing over.

Although Nabil looked very dull physically, it did not mean that he was dull as a whole. After hearing what Chris had said, it was impossible for him to not know what to do.

“Impossible! Chris! If you want to die, we’ll die together! This is the mission that Vincent gave me!” said Nabil. He rejected his idea and continued to buff Chris.

The Giant Earth Bear roared towards the sky. It wanted to kill Chris and the human on his shoulder in the next attack.

“Vincent isn’t here! I’m the Captain! You shut up and listen to my orders!” said Chris.

Chris could feel the Giant Earth Bear gathering its strength. It roared angrily whilst gathering its strength.

Chris had to take the next attack no matter what. The five minutes were almost up.

Vincent would always return every five minutes. Chris believed that Vincent could do the same this time.

“Roar!”

The Giant Earth Bear let out an excited roar. The earthen yellow energy ball in its mouth grew bigger and bigger before it finally spat it at Chris.

Chris did the same. However, as he was already at the end of his tether, coupled with the difference in level, he could not gather his energy ball completely. He had no choice but to spit it out earlier.

Bang!

The two energy balls collide. Chris’s energy ball was canceled out by the Giant Earth Bear’s energy ball.

The Giant Earth Bear’s energy ball had also shrunk by a layer. Even so, it was still very terrifying.

Chris closed his eyes in despair and fell backward. He reached out to grab Nabil on his shoulder and threw him in the direction Vincent had flown off to.

He had no other choice. The only thing he could do was to throw Nabil out, hoping that Vincent would be able to find Nabil before he was killed by the monster.

“World-Cleansing Barrier!”

Chris thought that he had hallucinated before he died. However, after waiting for a long time, he did not feel any pain.

“Chris! Chris!”

Chris could hear Nabil calling out to him.

He slowly opened his eyes and saw Nabil. He looked as if he had just survived a disaster. He then turned his head to see Vincent attacking the Giant Earth Bear.

The Giant Earth Bear was very angry at Vincent, the human that had suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Plus, Vincent had managed to block its own innate attack.

The Giant Earth Bear waved its hands repeatedly as if it was chasing away a fly.

Vincent did look like a fly next to the Giant Earth Bear.

Its attack speed was not as fast as Vincent’s. It could not catch up to Vincent at all and could only take a passive beating.

Vincent held the Purgatory Blade in his hand and used Sky Splitter repeatedly as if it was free. Every strike was aimed at the Giant Earth Bear’s stomach.

The Giant Earth Bear’s defense was terrifying. After enduring Vincent’s six Sky Splitters in a row, it fell to the ground and howled loudly.

The system sent Vincent a notification. Vincent heaved a sigh of relief and walked towards Chris. Chris had returned to his human form. Vincent gave him a kick.

“Bastard! Didn’t I tell you to protect yourself? You won’t run if you can’t win! Only Nabil is alone, don’t tell me you can’t take him with you?”

Chris looked at Vincent who was furious. He was stunned for a moment. He then proceeded to laugh out loud.

What was life? What was living? He finally understood.

Things that he could not accept in the past were no longer a bother at this point. He became much more relaxed.

Pop!

Chris felt that something in his body was broken. Following that, his aura rose steadily.

Vincent looked at Chris and was stunned for a moment. He then smiled and looked at Nabil.

“This guy has received a blessing in disguise. He has advanced,” said Vincent.

Nabil shrugged and did not say anything.

Vincent looked at his surroundings that had suddenly quiet down. He then looked at Chris and sighed softly.

“It’s just that the timing isn’t right!”

“Nabil, we can’t leave for the time being. You protect yourself and Chris. I’ll fight the monsters. When he wakes up, we can then leave and meet with everyone else,” said Vincent.

Nabil nodded and continued to consume medicine for recovery.

Vincent could sense many powerful auras hidden around him. Based on a rough estimate, there were more than a hundred auras.

After such a long battle, the monsters were no longer fools. They knew that Vincent and the others were not to be trifled with.

However, they were also not willing to give up. After all, it was a rare opportunity to meet a weak human.

If they were to attack, there was a risk of being killed. It was very likely that they would benefit the monsters after them.

If they did not attack, they would not be willing to leave either. No one was willing to give up just like that.

Vincent did not take the initiative to attack either. He only wanted to wait for Chris to complete his advancement.

Neither side took the initiative to attack. A rare delicate balance was formed.

More than ten minutes had passed. Chris finally completed his advancement. He could sense the strong power in his body. Although he was still very weak due to the excessive consumption of psionic power, he was fascinated by the strong power.

“Congratulations, Chris. You’ve become a high-level superpowered user,” said Vincent whilst smiling.

Chris chuckled, and said in a serious tone, “Shall we leave now?”

Vincent nodded. The three of them walked towards the cave together.

Since they had to walk there, they had to walk at least three kilometers. However, there were only three of them left. This was equivalent to one and a half person’s combat strength. It was not a big problem.

Vincent was one person, and Chris and Nabil made up half a person.

The monsters that were watching them earlier could not hold back anymore when they saw them leaving. They roared and rushed towards them one after another.
