The Almighty Ring

Chapter 1022: I Believe You

“Alright!” Ariel nodded. Although she did not have much faith in this Level 5 expert, there was no way she could protect Jiang Fei through such an explosion on her own. Therefore, she had no choice but to work with this Level 5 expert.

“Let me go first!” In order to get on Zhuge Shanzhen’s good side, the Level 5 expert was going all out. He took the initiative to block in front of Jiang Fei as he channeled all of his energy in his body to form a protective shield against the explosive energy waves.

Bam! As the impact landed on the protective shield, the Level 5 expert started being pushed backward continuously. Within two seconds, he had been pushed back by more than a hundred meters. If not for Jiang Fei’s swift reaction, he would have been killed by the collision.

After all, this was the explosive energy from a Level 5 expert. Even a Level 5 expert of the same rank found it difficult to handle.

Splurt!

As he spat out a mouthful of blood, the Level 5 expert seemed to be in pain. However, he was not ready to give up. As the explosive energy was still very strong, he was worried that Ariel who was a partial Level 5 expert would not be able to block it entirely. If Jiang Fei died, Zhuge Shanzhen would definitely not let him off the hook.

“Ahhh!” As an angry shout was heard, the Level 5 expert strengthened his protective shield yet again.

Bang! When the second explosive hit came, it was combined with the remnant strengths from the first explosion. That meant the explosive force was even stronger. In an instant, both hands of the Level 5 expert seemed severely wounded as blood started dripping down onto the floor.

“Take over my spot!” Although he had sustained himself for less than ten seconds against the explosion, the Level 5 expert had already used up all of his energy and his body was badly injured.

“Alright!” Ariel immediately took over the defensive position. Although she was mentally prepared, her body was still far too weak.

“Ouch!” The girl cried out. Although the strongest impact of the explosion had already been absorbed by the Level 5 expert, the remaining energy waves were still very powerful.

Within two short seconds, blood started dripping from the corners of Ariel’s mouth. She must have sustained a great deal of internal injuries from such strong energy waves.

Splurt!

In less than five seconds, Ariel who was only a partial Level 5 expert could no longer bear the impacts of the explosion. As she spat out a mouthful of blood, her body was hurled backward by the force of impact.

“Ahh!” In that crucial moment, the Level 5 expert who had taken a short break once again blocked in front of Jiang Fei. Although he was already heavily injured, he was fortunate enough to have an undying body. As long as he was not attacked by the Godblade, he would not die.

“This…” Jiang Fei was dumbfounded. He finally felt how insignificant he was in the face of such frightening powers. If not for Ariel and the other Level 5 expert who risked their lives to protect him, he would have been killed by the explosion in an instant.

Although the explosion lasted for less than twenty seconds, Jiang Fei felt as if years had passed. Even though most of the explosion’s might had been blocked by others, Jiang Fei still felt goosebumps from the frightful pressure of the energy waves.

Baddump…

As soon as the explosive impact ended, the Level 5 expert immediately knelt to the ground. His palms were pressed on the ground as his body trembled continuously. If this were witnessed by others, they would not have thought of him as an invincible Level 5 expert.

“Ariel!” Jiang Fei rushed over to Ariel. Right then, the girl had already fainted from her bodily injuries. Fortunately, Ariel still had an undying body despite being a partial Level 5 expert. Regardless of how severe her injuries were, she would be able to recover to her former state in due time.

Coughs.

The Level 5 expert coughed for a while before turning around to sit on the ground. Not only had he suffered terrible physical injuries, but he had also used up all of his energy. His current state was not any different from Doomsday which Jiang Fei had captured.

“If that man doesn’t acknowledge my efforts this time, I’ll be damned!” The Level 5 expert panted as he contemplated in his heart. He would need at least ten years to recover from his current injuries. If Zhuge Shanzhen did not acknowledge him for his efforts, he would have sacrificed himself in vain.

“That… Umm… Thank you…” After making sure that Ariel was fine, Jiang Fei turned around to look at the Level 5 expert awkwardly. Although the fellow was originally here to snatch the Rebirth Egg away from him, he had saved Jiang Fei’s life in the end and deserved his thanks.

“…” The Level 5 expert waved his hands. He was not being arrogant. Instead, it was because his injuries were so severe that he could not even speak.

Thumps.

Just as Jiang Fei was about to speak, footsteps could be heard approaching them. When Jiang Fei turned around, he saw a messy-haired Isabella walking toward them slowly.

Right then, Isabella had bloodshot eyes. She walked slowly toward the Level 5 expert with the Zhanlu Sword in her hand and a chilling smile on her face. Most importantly, Isabella was not holding the handle of the sword. Instead, she was holding on to the body of the sword itself.

With the sword in her right hand, Isabella looked as if she was a demonic god from hell. Fresh blood dripped from her hand onto the body of the sword. The rich energy from her blood seemed to be reacting with the Valium from the sword. A frightening energy flowed along Isabella’s arm before being absorbed into her body.

“0542, what the hell is happening?!” Although Jiang Fei did not understand why Isabella was unharmed by Godblade’s energy, he knew that this was extremely abnormal.

“You should all die!” Before 0542 could answer, Isabella had already arrived before the Level 5 expert. She raised the Zhanlu Sword in her hand as her eyes were full of murderous intent.

The Level 5 expert’s eyes were wide open in shock. He could not believe that saving Jiang Fei would bring about such a tragic ending.

“Bella, wait!” Jiang Fei shouted urgently. However, Isabella did not seem to have heard a word he said.

“Damn! I’m going all out. Bella, please remember me!” Jiang Fei could not watch as Isabella killed the person who saved him without doing anything. Therefore, he decided to charge forward. His only hope right now was that Isabella would remember him and stop her actions in the crucial moment. Otherwise, Jiang Fei would definitely be killed by the Godblade in an instant.

Shuffle! Although Jiang Fei had blocked in front of the Level 5 expert, Isabella did not seem to be hesitating at all as the Zhanlu Sword began to move downward.

“I believe you won’t hurt me!” Jiang Fei felt goosebumps all over his body. However, he was still not going to avoid her attack. As Isabella’s attack was not very fast, Jiang Fei was completely able to dodge it if he wanted to.

Zap!

0542’s protective shield was instantly destroyed. With such a strong force from a Level 5 expert, 0542’s energy levels would not be able to protect Jiang Fei.

As Isabella’s sword moved downward, Jiang Fei could see a few strands of his hair being cut off. However, just before the sword’s tip touched his scalp, Isabella’s eyes returned to their normal clear state.
