The pursuit continued relentlessly, with the effects of the death potion showing no signs of waning, instead becoming even more terrifying and further reducing Buck's contracted spirit's combat power.
"You're the world's number one genius, aren't you? Don't you feel ashamed to defeat me with a potion?"
Buck, consumed by despair, attempted a provocation, hoping the young man might fall for it...
However, he had underestimated Chen Shu...
"Shameful it is, and so be it!"
Chen Shu grinned and said, "The more you say that, the more excited I get!"
"A King-tier being, killed by a mere Gold-level Beast Tamer using a potion! Just thinking about it makes me feel so good!"
"Hasn't my life been lived to the fullest then?"
"..."
Buck's face flushed red, and he instantly spat out a mouthful of stagnant blood, his eyes filled with venom and hatred.
This barrage of mental attacks was truly disgusting...
Just then, Chen Shu's Erha's ultimate skill finished its cooldown, and combined with the spatial rabbit's control, it instantly killed another one of his contracted spirits.
Witnessing this, Buck's face fell into despair, knowing he was doomed.
The other party was right; all they needed to do was eliminate him first...
"Even if I die, you won't have it easy!"
Buck cursed venomously, "The Salvation Church has completely risen, and you'll soon join me!"
"Then it's of little consequence to you."
Chen Shu smiled indifferently and, with another string of skills, annihilated another of Buck's contracted spirits.
In just a few minutes,
Buck was left alone, without a single contracted spirit by his side.
His eyes held despair. He had thought he was on the verge of soaring to new heights, only to be met with an unexpected downfall.
Indeed, no one knew whether accidents or tomorrow would come first...
He closed his eyes, ceasing all resistance, and silently awaited death.
But no attack came.
A flicker of surprise crossed his mind. Could there be a turn of events?
However, when he opened his eyes, he was stunned.
Chen Shu stood before him, holding a camera device, and said,
"Old Liu, do you see this? This is your enemy, old man Buck!"
"We are currently within the Free Alliance, and I caught this guy red-handed. I thought there would be a fierce battle, but he's no match for me at all!"
"Old man Buck, look at the camera. You're about to die. Do you have any last words?"
"..."
Buck's eyes widened, his mind momentarily blank.
Aren't you going too far with the humiliation!
"Hurry up, don't dawdle!"
Chen Shu shoved the camera device towards the other's face and said, "It's best if you show some regret and pain, it makes it more dramatic."
"Pfft—"
Buck instantly spat out another mouthful of blood. He, the dignified patriarch of the Knarl family, who had lived a life of prestige, was about to die so disgracefully?
"Yes, that's it! Truly professional!"
Chen Shu clenched his fist and said, "Come on, a little more!"
"Pfft—"
Although Buck didn't want to obey Chen Shu, the suffocating frustration in his heart made him unable to resist spitting out more blood.
Five minutes later,
Buck died with immense frustration, his eyes wide open, truly unable to rest in peace...
"This is quite good. I'll send it back to Old Liu..."
Chen Shu's lips curled upwards. When it came to tormenting people, he truly had a knack for it.
Not long after,
Chen Shu returned to the previous scene.
The spatial confinement was still in place. Below, hundreds of Beast Tamers attempted to break it, but at most, they were only Silver-tier, utterly incapable of shaking it!
"Alright, stop struggling!"
Chen Shu ordered the spatial rabbit to attack, initiating a massacre!
Moments later, the ground was strewn with corpses. Only two Beast Tamers remained alive, not due to their strength, but because Chen Shu wanted to obtain some intelligence.
"Huhu~"
The spatial rabbit was exhilarated, continuously collecting the resources on the ground, even venturing into the underground caves to pack everything away.
According to Chen Shu's estimation, the resources were worth at least hundreds of billions!
"Time to go!"
Chen Shu did not linger, worried about encountering reinforcements from the Salvation Church. While they wouldn't be able to keep him, there was no need to waste potions unnecessarily.
Moreover, Buck's words about the church's complete rise had made him a little more cautious.
Half an hour later,
Chen Shu, with two hostages in tow, arrived at a desolate village.
A gentle smile appeared on his lips, making one want to trust him.
However, the two hostages trembled, their eyes filled with fear. This guy was a true executioner, killing without hesitation.
Chen Shu said calmly, "Now, I want some information. You can choose to speak or not!"
One of them seemed to gather courage, his face filled with resentment, showcasing his defiance.
"Brave warrior! I admire you!"
Chen Shu smiled, not surprised at all. If they truly had courage, they would have committed suicide by now...
He had the spatial rabbit take out a large jar filled with black powder.
It was the Bandit's Brand Laxative!
"I'll let you die comfortably!"
He grinned and dragged the two to a corner,
"Wuwu~~"
The "brave warrior" suddenly showed signs of fear, vaguely sensing something ominous...
"Ahhh—"
Moments later, tragic screams echoed from the corner, accompanied by sounds of torrential expulsion...
"..."
Da Li glanced at it and couldn't help but shudder. This guy was becoming less and less human...
Half an hour later,
Chen Shu dragged the other survivor back.
The man's face was pale, his body trembling, and he was already disoriented. It was the first time he had ever seen someone die from continuous expulsion.
Chen Shu said gently, "Now, can I get the information?"
The man nodded repeatedly, fearing any delay. Then he said,
"Can you give me a dignified way to die?"
"No problem!"
Chen Shu nodded and asked,
"Now, tell me about the situation of the Alliance, and why your Salvation Church is here?"
