Chapter 48: Chapter 48: Silencing Witnesses
"Heal! Hurry and heal me!"
Gao Wei snapped out of the exhilaration of the fierce battle at that moment.
His Life Value had dropped below 10%, and in such a situation, no matter how much he loved battle, he was frightened into a cold sweat.
Letting the main tank’s Life Value drop below 10% is a cardinal sin for a Healer!
If word got out, the Healer might not be able to find a party anymore.
This kind of situation clearly shouldn’t occur with a Healer of Lin Ye’s high calibre...
Unless he did it on purpose!
Gao Wei made a quick decision, directly pulling out a Recovery Potion, trying to bring his Life Value back to a safe level.
"Hurry up! Full output, help Young Master Gao take down these monsters!"
Li Minghui shouted, urging the other two not to hold back anymore.
If Gao Wei died, they undoubtedly wouldn’t meet a good end either!
As for what Lin Ye was up to, it would have to wait until after the battle to be dealt with!
But there was no doubt, by then he’d be doomed!
"Alright!" The Archer Guo Wei and Mage Shi Cheng both responded with a shout.
However, the next moment Lin Ye was already appearing behind Guo Wei.
"Bang!"
Lin Ye’s Magic Staff struck Guo Wei’s back, causing him to stagger directly.
-310!
A bright red number appeared in the air!
"You!"
Suddenly attacked, Guo Wei couldn’t help but turn around in horror, feeling a chill deep down.
Was Lin Ye’s attack power really reasonable?
This was already comparable to a same-Level Mage’s Qi Gathering Fireball!
But Lin Ye’s attack landed again.
The staff he held was clearly a Magic System one, but in Lin Ye’s hands, it had become an offensive weapon.
Had it been that Punishment Technique couldn’t deal damage to human Professionals, otherwise, with one technique, Guo Wei would have been dead, with no time left for astonishment.
But now it didn’t matter, even without spells, Lin Ye’s overpowering attributes were enough to clear these people out.
The most crucial thing was, he could continuously restore his own Life Value, whereas even if the others had potions, regardless of the consumption limit, they’d eventually run out...
By then, they were as good as dead.
As for why this time only Lin Ye came out of the Secret Realm alive...
Who said entering the Secret Realm guaranteed everyone would come out alive?
The number of Professionals dying in the Innate Secret Realm every year was vast, barely making the news.
If they all wanted to survive, why not go to the safer Acquired Secret Realm?
As for whether the Gao Family would blame Lin Ye for Gao Wei’s death...
Lin Ye felt no fear.
At least in the safe zone, the current Gao Family absolutely wouldn’t dare touch Lin Ye.
"Bang!"
With a sound of glass shattering, Guo Wei’s face changed dramatically.
Because this sound meant his Life Value had been hit to zero!
"Stop! Stop!" Guo Wei cried out in terror.
He regretted it!
He shouldn’t have mixed into this mess.
He knew from the start that Li Minghui manipulated Gao Wei to bring Lin Ye into the Secret Realm with malicious intent.
Yet he still came along.
Because he had seen this happen twice before and assumed this time would also go smoothly.
But who could have known, this time he himself would be the one to die!
At this moment, Lin Ye’s Magic Staff grew larger in Guo Wei’s pupils.
In the next moment, his head exploded like a watermelon, splattering red broth everywhere.
Guo Wei’s corpse collapsed weakly to the ground.
This scene left Li Minghui and Shi Cheng completely stunned.
Then Lin Ye shifted his gaze to Shi Cheng.
"Don’t... don’t kill me! Let’s talk! You can keep me as a witness, I can prove they wanted to kill you first!"
Shi Cheng was terrified, sprawling on the ground, pleading non-stop as he retreated, leaving a trail of water.
Lin Ye walked over expressionlessly.
With a few shrill cries, Shi Cheng also became a corpse.
Now, only Lin Ye, Li Minghui, and Gao Wei remained on the scene.
Gao Wei roared in fury, but couldn’t conceal his inner fear.
Without a Healer’s support under the Fishman Warrior’s siege, he was powerless to sustain.
As for Li Minghui, he couldn’t handle the deaths of Guo Wei and Shi Cheng, turning around and fleeing along the path they came.
"Lin Ye, save me! I absolutely won’t hold you responsible, and I’ll give you a large amount of money!"
"Ten million! No no no! A hundred million! Save me!"
Gao Wei shouted at Lin Ye.
At this moment, he just wanted to survive.
But Lin Ye simply ignored him, retreating to a relatively safe distance, quietly watching Gao Wei amidst the Fishman Warriors’ attacks, shouting and resisting...
It wasn’t that Lin Ye enjoyed watching such a scene, he just needed to ensure Gao Wei’s death so he wouldn’t immediately enter a combat state again.
"Why! You should be the one dying!"
"My dad won’t let you off!"
"You’re dead!"
Gao Wei kept roaring, but with a sharp crack, his Life Value finally hit zero.
Full of fear, Gao Wei was overwhelmed by Fishman Warriors and utterly torn apart...
After killing Gao Wei, those Fishman Warriors lifted their heads, scanning around.
But they no longer saw any living shadows.
...
"I want to go home..."
"Let me go home..."
"I’m not being a Professional anymore, boohoo..."
"Ah ah ah!"
Li Minghui fled in a panic, but the Secret Realm’s progress was stuck at 79%, he just couldn’t exit.
In the chaos, Li Minghui tripped over the vines beneath his feet, sprawling several meters forward.
When he finally managed to prop himself up, he heard footsteps behind him.
He quickly turned, only to see that it was Lin Ye coming.
Li Minghui instantly lost the strength to continue escaping...
"Don’t kill me, I’m Li Fei’s cousin! If you kill me, she definitely won’t be with you anymore!" Li Minghui shouted immediately.
"Oh? Really?"
Lin Ye raised his eyebrows, questioning with some disbelief.
Li Minghui saw Lin Ye smile, thinking he grabbed onto a life-saving straw: "I really am Li Fei’s cousin, trust me! You must have feelings for Li Fei, right? I’ve known for a while, don’t worry, I recognize you as my brother-in-law! She listens to me the most!"
"Flash!"
A Holy Light landed on Li Minghui, directly restoring his Life Value to full.
Li Minghui was somewhat incredulous, was Lin Ye really trusting him?
However, the next moment, he only heard Lin Ye ask: "Then... why didn’t you say from the start that you were Li Fei’s cousin?"
Li Minghui was at a loss for words...
Why?
Because from the start, he only thought about killing Lin Ye!
