Starting With 3 S-Class Talents

Chapter 42: Monster Horde

Vincent set off again. An hour later, he was surrounded by more than ten Stinging Wild Boars.

Stinging Wild Boars were intermediate-level monsters. Their bodies were covered with stingers that could be shot outwards to attack their targets.

The Stinging Wild Boar King on the other hand was an advanced-level monster.

Vincent looked at the Stinging Wild Boars and smiled happily at them. He was not afraid.

An intermediate-level monster was not a problem for Vincent at all.

Although Vincent was just a beginner-level superpowered person, his combat strength was enough to fight against a high-level superpowered person.

After all, Vincent had learned many tricks using Hellfire.

For instance, the fire net could restrict one’s movement and control.

The fire arrow could breakthrough high defense and attack.

The flash and flash bullets could distract his opponents and increase his agility.

Vincent’s current usage of Hellfire covered all aspects.

In other words, he had managed to develop Hellfire, an elemental-type superpower into an all-rounded superpower.

This was not something that he did on purpose. It was just a solution that he thought of when he was practicing in the superpower training room. He combined the battle situations to make up for his own shortcomings.

With a flip of his hand, he condensed a Hellfire arrow. He then swung it at the Stinging Wild Boar King.

As the saying goes, “Shoot the man’s horse before you shoot the man.”

Vincent learned this principle five years ago.

However, Vincent did not expect the Stinging Wild Boar King to receive his attack. It turned sideways and used its body to receive the Hellfire arrow.

It gathered all the thorns on its body and formed one huge thorn in its center.

Bang!

The Hellfire arrow collided with its thorn, and black flames started to burn towards the Stinging Wild Boar King.

The Stinging Wild Boar King did not panic. It just shook its body and the thorn that was engulfed by the Hellfire flames fell to the ground.

It turned its head and looked at Vincent mockingly.

When Vincent was fighting the Stinging Wild Boar King, the other wild boars did not bother to watch. They wanted to attack Vincent as well.

Vincent growled and swung his Purgatory Blade. He looked as if he was dancing with the wind.

The flying thorns were shot down by Vincent one after another. One of the wild boars got too close to Vincent and was instantly beheaded.

However, the incident did not instill fear amongst the wild boars. Instead, it aroused their ferocity.

Their eyes were red as they grunted.

When Vincent saw that the Stinging Wild Boars were planning to fight him in close combat, he smiled.

He was different from the other elementalists.

He was better at close-range combat as compared to long-range combat.

Vincent attached Hellfire to his Purgatory Blade, and a tongue of fire shot out from it.

The fiery red color on the blade looked very demonic.

“Jump slash!”

Vincent jumped up to decrease the distance between him and the Stinging Wild Boar King.

Whilst he was still in the air, he performed another Collapsing Mountain Strike.

The Collapsing Mountain Strike performed by Vincent this time was different from all the previous ones.

Perhaps it was because Vincent had used Hellfire on his Purgatory Blade.

The formless blade aura actually turned black.

A blade aura formed by the pitch-black flames slashed towards the head of the Stinging Wild Boar King.

It was extremely fast.

The Stinging Wild Boar King frowned and raised its four hooves, dodging nimbly.

Although it dodged Vincent’s attack, its tail was still cut off.

The smell of meat wafted out.

“Roar!”

The Stinging Wild Boar King howled in pain and roared at Vincent. It was extremely furious.

The Stinging Wild Boars became crazy and started to attack Vincent.

Some used their stingers, and some tried to restrict Vincent’s movements.

They all worked well together.

For a moment, Vincent was in a bit of a pinch.

Nevertheless, he still refused to use Monster Affinity as he did not see a need for it.

After all, he was just facing an intermediate-level monster. If he had to use Monster Affinity against an intermediate-level monster, it would be a waste.

As the battle went on, the Stinging Wild Boar King became confused.

Why was this human different from all the other ones it encountered before?

He was still alive and kicking even after fighting for so long.

Seven or eight of its underlings had died, but Vincent still acted as if nothing had happened.

Vincent was able to fight for so long because of the Purgatory Blade’s special attributes.

It reduced his psionic power consumption by 15%.

It may not seem like much, but as the battle went on, the effects began to show.

For example, although Vincent did not have much psionic power left in his body, he did not have any problem killing the Stinging Wild Boars.

At that moment, the Stinging Wild Boar King suddenly roared into the sky. Its voice was filled with fear.

The other Stinging Wild Boars stopped attacking Vincent and crouched on the ground. It looked as if they were waiting to be slaughtered.

Vincent was stunned and was completely unaware of what had just happened.

However, he did not hesitate to kill them.

He raised his Purgatory Blade and was about to kill all the Stinging Wild Boars.

As he raised his blade, the ground suddenly began to shake. The frequency of the tremor increased.

At the same time, there was a loud rumble.

“What’s happening? An earthquake?”

Vincent’s face was full of confusion. He looked down on the ground and saw pebbles jumping all around him.

He looked up again and saw the Stinging Wild Boar King leading its underlings. They all rushed in the opposite direction of the loud roar.

Vincent frowned. If he still could not figure out the problem, he would be a fool.

However, he still could not understand what had happened.

Nevertheless, no matter what it was, he knew that it was not something that he could handle. He turned around and ran in the direction of Hero City.

The earth shook more and more violently, and the rumbling sounds behind him became louder.

Vincent turned his head to look behind him and was almost scared out of his wits.

There were so many monsters behind him!

They were all over the mountains and plains, like a tide.

There were all kinds of strange monsters!

Their faces were filled with excitement as they all fought to be first.

“F*ck! What’s happening?”

After seeing the Monster Horde getting closer and closer, Vincent really wished that he could just grow a pair of wings and fly into the sky.

He was not a monster. His skin was rough, and his flesh was thick. He could run rampant.

He will need to destroy anything that was in his way.

He also needed to avoid trees, bushes, boulders, and other obstacles.

He had to travel a lot more than the monsters.

He was really small in comparison to them.

Along the way, countless monsters continued to join the Monster Horde.

This resulted in the horde getting larger in size.

The Phoenix-Feathered Tyrannosaurus Rex flew in the air. Its cold eyes looking in the direction of Hero City.

It could sense that there were many humans there.

The humans were its target this round.

“Roar!”

The Phoenix-Feathered Tyrannosaurus Rex roared towards the sky.

When the other monsters heard its roar, they all became very excited and increased their speed.

Vincent was not slow. He was about to leave the defensive mountain range.

At that moment, William and his underling were hiding behind a huge rock.

“Prince William, Vincent!”

William revealed a cruel smile.

“Your superpower is Shadow Binding, right?”

The underling nodded and looked at William in confusion.

“In a bit, you can bind him. I want to use him to feed my babies.”

As William spoke, more than ten monsters appeared behind him.

Half of them were high-level monsters.

Although the underling knew that the monsters were all being controlled by William, he was still afraid.

He was even more afraid when he thought of the miserable state Vincent would be in after being torn apart by all these monsters. He could not help but shiver.
